Spring Flowers.
From the Los Anoeses Times.

From the Los Angeses Times.
Tiny prophecies Of deep set colors ana
white,
That ere the rains OF spring are fully
dried
Spring between the dead leaves into the
light,
A fairy messenger of the other side,
OF this decay to tell me what sweet
things
Shall IN their season blossom and
grow fair,
And fling their morning perfume on the
wings
OF the soft zephyrs that fill the sum
mer air,
I would that you could teach me how
TO wake
Among the dead leaves Of my passing
days
Some blossom OF thought for whose
sweet sake
/ might seem nobler to mine inner
gaze.
Then would / be worthy TO kneei at
His feet
And, like the tender spring flowers
80 fair.
Bring forth from the gloom message
sweet,
Blessings for all humanity TO share

Datusa, $4,000 Stake Winner.

Datusa was a sleepy eyed one-year-
old thoroughbred filly dreaming away
the hours in the pastures at Caimito.
In the province of Havana, twelve
months ago. To-day she Is the most
talked Of two-year-old in the Republic
Of Cuba because on Sunday she won
the initial running Of the $4,000 Cuba
Produce Stakes in the presence of q
crowd which takes its greatest pleas
ures on the first day of the week and
manages to squeeze In a modicum of
enjoyment on the other six days
The victory Of Datusa, running In
the name and colors Of the Ammonia
Stables, this being the title under
which the horses Of her young owner.
Sefior A. FEREANDEz- MoHREII, race, Is
fresh illustration of the fascina-
tion and romance Of breeding and
racing thoroughbreds. She was born
some twenty miles from the scene OF
her great triumph. Her father was
Sir Wellons. grandson of Golden
Garter, an imported English sire, and
her mother was Adelia by Sir Huon.
Both Sir Wellons and Adelia were
bred in the United States and were
taken to Cuba for the winter cam
paign of 1919.
When Datusa was born there was
no Joy at Calmito. She was rather
undersized and was almost as sway
backed as Tenny. Her owner at one
time thought Of giving her away, but
she began to grow and was such a
pet with everybody that she was
finally accepted in much the same
way as q dog or other animal would
be and followed the men about the
paddocks and pastures at will. She
was a favorite with the women also,
and soon every delicate morsel was
being saved for Datusa, which grew
apace and became neat. tidy filly,
With the exception Of her hollow back,
which was almost a deformity.
When President MENocAL inaugu-
rated n series Of races with a Govern
ment subsidy for horses bred in the
republic, with view to improving
the breed on the island. Datusa was
nominated for the $4,000 Cuba Prod
uce Stakes.
Life was one long, pleasant dream
for Datusa until the American trainer
WALTER CARTER placed a saddle on
her back and bit In her mouth last
September. Then she found that her
will was subordinated to that Of man,
and soon she was taking her exercise
over the half mile course at the farm.
Slowly her muscles were relieved Of
the ache Of training, and when the
first Of January came, making her
technically a two-year-old, she was
sent to the big course at Marianao
to get the finishing touches for the
$4,000 prize.
The account OF the race cabled to
this country says that Datusa was
outrun to the stretch and then came
through her field to win gamely by
length. The wires did not tell Of the
Joy at Caimito that night on the part
of the men and women who had al
ways maintained that Datusa was
born for greater things than sleeping
all day in the shade of the ceiba tree
at the edge Of the patio.

SUNSHINE HELPS CROPS
Rains Turnout Kansas We're of
Great Benefit to Wheat, Corn
and Other Crops-Corn looks
Good All Over State.

Warm sunshiny weather with maxi
mum temperatures OF a hundred de-
grees Sunday prevailed turnout Kan
sas during the past week. The drouth
which had been showing signs of in
juring the crops, was broken Thursday
when the first moderate to heavy rain
in several weeks time occurred in the
eastern half of the state. The rain
was attended by high winds and some
hail in the central portion. which
caused considerable damage to that
section. The western half reported
only a few scattered light showers.
The rains which occurred the latter
part of the week greatly aided in i'm
proving the outlook for wheat. + 1t was
practically all headed out in the south
and south-central portions and over so
per cent in the rest of the state. Signs
Of ripening were in evidence in the
south central portion. In the western
half the extremely dry weather apd
high winds seem to be having a very
bad effect on the wheat. A good rain
is needed in this section. In the north
west section it is claimed the results
of the April freezes are still noted.
Corn is in better shape and is from
rs to 100 percent up in the southern
half and over so per cent up else
where. 1t is reported to be in fair to
good shape thruout the state, but
more rain is needed in the central and
western portions to help it along. The
corn fields are clean and have gen.
orally been cultivated once, altho sew
eral counties in the south portion re-
port it as having been cultivated
twice.
Oats and barley are thin and the
stands are considered to be in fair
shape in most instances but need more
moisture. In the southeast portion
the oats are heading, but short.
The first cutting of alfalfa has COM
menced in the southern portion and
will be under way in the rest of the
state within the next ten days. The
crop is very short.
Garden products showed improve
ment in the eastern half after the
rains of the latter part Of the week.
Pastures a1tho in better shape are
considered only fair.
