 as the girl gained her breath.
 At least you were not conscious when you first saw each other."

 My mind puzzlng over Luclle's state meut, heard Nida's clear soft voice saying, Mir. Bopp, I am pleased-why. aren't you called BoppyT"
 "Boppy?" repeated Lucille curiously.
 "Yes, don't you call him that? All the girls in the Show Girl company did. I was in the chorus then. We used to regard him as almost one of the company. he was around with us so much. We had q good time that season." she added collectively.
 Lucille murmured, II should inn zine so"

 You must be terribly tired. Monty" ' ,ta Co ttxt ty-six hours and no food for three days. wish that there were something that could do for you"
 I listened in amazement. Could this be Lucille, and was she addressing me? She was. I puzzled over the gentle ness in her tones and the solicitude she was showing for my welfare. I did not hit upon the answer then. but l have since.
 After awhile the rain let up. and We went back to the house to see what the others might have discovered and lay q plan of campaign. Vida elected to stay out of doors, and l suggested that she take on Mir. Clair for walk. told her that he was a woman hnter and thus inadvertently aroused her in- terest.

NEED OF ANCIENT PRACTICE
Stored Various Sueculent Feeds for Live Stock.

CPrepared by the United States Depart
 ment of Agriculture)
 History tells of Roman farmers who carefully chopped fine various green, succulent feeds and packed them in pits for use during the winter season. The practice seems to have been com mon and the feed kept well. From these early times 1t has been good practice to store various green crops in pits or alright containers for feed ing to stock. The Silo Is the present day result, and farmer who raises live stock cannot afford to be without one. The advantages of the silo are numerous. but some of the more i'm portant are:

HOW TO SHIP NEW POTATOES
Prevent Losses by Leading Them Care fully Into Cars-Double-h Headed
 Barrel Is Good.

CPrepared by the United States Depart
 ment of Agriculture)
 Shifting of the loads In transit, weak and partly filled packages, and lack of ventilation are responsible for losses in many cars of new potatoes which are arriving at markets. The loading of diseased potatoes Is also responsible for considerable loss. In some cases shipments that show scab wilt or late blight are practically worthless when they reach the market.
 The double-headed barrel appears to be the best package for new potatoes that is now in general use. If proper iy made 1t protects the potatoes as well as holds them in place. Muclt less breakage has been found in cars where the barrels are loaded on end than when loaded on their bllge. Strips should be placed on top of the lower layers of barrels for the upper layers to rest upon.
 Loading barrels on their bilge is not safe practice unless headliners (strips to prevent heads bulging) are used. It is said that the use of head liners would prevent nine-tenths of tho brenknge in all types of loads with

KEEP SHEEP FLOCK
 TO CONTROL WEEDS

Prepared by the United States De
 partment of Agriculture)
 One of the best and cheapest ways to control weeds on farms Is to keep a flock of sheep. In addition to controlling weeds without cost, sheep will render q profit by producing nutritious food and wool, and will assist materially in meeting demands on the nation for meat and wool production. If weeds are not permitted to grow and develop leaves they will die, but it would require great amount of hard labor to keep most weeds under control by this method. Sheep will keep the weeds down and the more weeds they eat the less will be their cost of upkcep. and the greater will be the supply of food released for other stock. Many rough or permanent grass pastures that require moving can be kept clean by the use of sheep, while at the same time the cattle-carrying capacity of the pasture is increased.

FARM ANIMALS
NATIONS FOR FARM ANIMALS
More Effective Use of By-produets of Crops Offers Opportunity for
 Meat Production.
tPrepared by the United States Depart
 ment of Agriculture)

tPrepared by the United States Depart
 ment of Agriculture)
 The misuse of the by-products of farm crops is causing American farm CTS to lose millions of dollars annu- ally. Nothing offers greater opportu- nity for increased and more ccOnOm- ical production of farm meats and dairy products than hy the more cf- fective use of such products. To bring our farming operations up to the high est possible state Of efficiency, all farm by-products must be used in an economical manner. Nearly all man. agers of the great industries of this country have learned that by-products constitute q very large source of their income and about all the profits. Farming is the greatest industry in this country to-day, but farm by-prod- uets have received very little atten- ton from the average farmer. Now, however, conditions are such as to urge the conservation of every avail able farm resource and every Amer ican farmer must make study of conditions existing on his own farm with the idea of utilizing such prod- ucts as are now being wasted.
 It Is estimated that the total amount of corn Stover and straws burned, plowed under, allowed to rot i'll stacks, and wasted in other ways is worth over $10O,000o0O This is an appalling loss, and if these fecdstuffs were useo in the feeding of cattle, sheep, and horses it would result in greatly in creased profits to individual farmers of meat and dairy products.
 The burning of straw, even though the ashes leave q small quantity of additional mineral matter in the soil, practiced most largely in the west, mainly because of custom rather than inability to purchase. feed. or market meat-producing animals. The people is of no value because in that section it has never been used for anything. In some of the western states a cam pai2n has been made hy the colleges of agriculture and institute workers to get farmers to use a portion of their waste Straw for spreading over their grain fields.

method of cleaning the ground pre- most largely practiccd where the corn k snapped, or husked. in the field. leaving the stalks standing.
 Another great waste that can well be stopped Is the failure to utilize the large area of grass along our roads, lanes, and fence rows. Sheep would utilize this waste and remove one of the greatest breeding places of inyfi- rlous farm insects. The lower leaves of the corn plant, which usually go to waste, aS well as the cnt-over grain and hay fields, also offer considerable feed to farm fiocks.
 Practical experience as we'll as ex- perimcntal work has taught that straw and stoyer can be used very econom- ically in the rations of almost all kinds of live stock. These roughages are and should be used in the fattening rationS of all farm animals except hogs, and should compose the larger part of all wlntering or Keeping ra- tions for cattle, sheep, and horses. Breeding herds of beef cattle or dry dairy cows can be successfully kept on rations composed largely of these materials. Flocks of breeding ewes do we'll with such feeds when some grain is added. Horses doing very light or no work need little grain if given plentiful allowance of clean. bright straw or stover. Under certain conditions, of course. grain should be added to the ration. but now 1t should be conserved as largely as possible for human consumption.

Work which is generally done in some parts of the country with the aid of machines that greatly increase the efficiency of the men employed is still largely done by hand in other parts. Machinery for most of the work in connection with preparing and tiiling the soil is available in many sizes, and frequently two or more outfits, each requiring the time of one man, are seen working in the same field on op- erations for which implements of two or three times the size of those used could be employed with just uS satiS- factory results. There are few farm horses which driver of ordinary in- telligcnce cannot train to work in large teams in a few days time, and most of the larger implements are lit tie if any more complicated or difficult to handle than the small ones for the same work

 ''Are you thGt dramatic critic?" she demanded, sitting bolt upright in bed and holding out her hands to me.
 My impulse was to take her in my arms just as any one would pick up child, but I knew she did not intend anything like that. so took both her hands instead.
 Just at that moment some one rap ped and Miss Dunmore said, Come in."
 Lucille entered, say our handclasp, blushed and stammered, T didn't mean &o intrude."
 ''Intrude? Not a bit of it. chattered Ghe other. q want to thank you for sending this adorable man up to me. I think I've been in love with him ever since he wrote that article in the pa per about me last week.
 Of course she meant as much by that as you mean when you say that you just love ice cream soda or buckwheat pancakes With sausage, or whatever 1t Is that you do just love, but to Lucille 1t verified all that she had suspected. With one seornfm glance at me she left the room with murmured excuse about finding some clothing for Miss Ounmore to put on.
