and group work. Our goods in those
days would, on bright spring after
moons, GO in groups to the BLUFFS on
the Potomac, in company with a like
number OF boys-carefully selected to
suit each girls fancy. Mr.. Darnell
once proposed to go along and take
some pictures. On the way he said TO
me: which do you prefer, art or ma
ture ?" That distinction | had never
yet met, much 4ess made. But as I
was addressing an artist | thought it
safe to say, "art" Turning to the
girl with whom was walking he said
What, say such thing when walk

their yields of Turkey wheat. We
might say that they are not the only
farmers who are disappointed as this
year has not been q turkey year in
any county. A few cops have done
exceptionally Well Because Turkey
has not done as we'll as you antici-
pated this year We would advise that
you restrain your melinations and do
not desert il at once. Remember that
Turkey wheat should be sOwn early
in the fall, That the ground should
be plowed early and that the wheat
should be up in the fall if possible.
Last year was a very poor fall for
seeding grain but the turkey that was
sown early did make good crops this
year. 1t is practically only the late
seeding which has given disappoint-
ment. 1t is our firm belief that Tur-
key is probably the best wheat for all
the land from Heppner north, while
there may be room for some argu-
ment in the upper country. Turkey
Red wheat is the wheat which has
made Kansas famous. 1t solved the
problems for the farmers of Kansas
between an account on the wrong side
