Live Stock as an Asset to Our Agri-

There are a number of very definite
reasons why we should emphasize the
production of more far manimals in
the south. Among the rIrsa aud most
important of these is tho 2"nserva-
ton of soil fertility. Every one &C
practice must realize that the sys-
tenn of clean cultivation which we
have followed so persistently has
resulted in the depletion of the fer
tility of our lands very materially.
In fact, some years ago when an
examination of certain virgin soils
was made in our chemical labora-
tories we were greatly surprised to
find that these lands showed loss
of $500 pounds of nitrogen per acre
foot after having been subject to
cultivation for periods of from TWEEN
in Georgia would be regarded as fer
tile if they contained as much as
$500 pounds of nitrogen per acre
foot. 1t is easy to appreciate, there
fore, what an appalling loss mas
taken place as result of persistent
clean cultivation;

abled the rains to work their will

CHAPTER XLVI

rOHN BLACKTON took Adele
home in the hours when even
sleepy Greenwich Village was
a. astir. Neither of them dreamed
as they crossed the square that back
of the draperies in her little flat,
Helen Westfield stood watching them;
that she had stood there for more
than an hour.
Helen had not gone to bed that
night. She couldn't. Toward morn
ing, near the time when she mag
ined the party would break up, she
could tell-perhaps by just seeing
their attitude toward each other
whether John Blackton had advanced
himself in Adele's affections. That
she felt this showed plainly how thor
oughly she knew the man.
AS they crossed the open space
arm in arm his lover-like attitude
shiver. Then as they came nearer
she saw Adele's head lifted to him.
IF I could only see the expression
on their faces, only hear what he is
saying to her" Helen moaned in dis
treSs.
When she had made Adele her con-
fidant about her divorce, to say moth
dreamed that she would ever be
called upon again to bare her very
soul, to tell that which, had she her
choice, she would die rather than con-
TESS. She must evade it if possible.
She would tell Adele, that very day,
that John Blackton was the man who
had made her life a hell. She would
go into all the sordid details of her
life with him in the effort to save
the girl from the same treatment at
his hands. She would beg her never
to see him again. to forget him.
But would she?
Would she, Helen Westfield, put
Kirk Lansing out of her life for
anything another woman might tell
her about him? No! She knew it
was only the knowledge of her own
unworthiness that gave her the
strength to refuse his love; that moth
ing any one could tell her about him
would have moved her, even though
it were true. That she had his love
would be the all important thing.
Why should she expect Adele to be
any different?
They had passed from her sight
and she strained her ears to listen.
How long it was! What was he
saying to the girl? Surely he had
had time enough to say all he wished
without keeping her standing at the

ing. Helen's lip curled as she thought
how like him that was. His only
thought for himself, his own enjoy
ment.
She sighed with relief when she
heard the street door open. then close
She leaned toward the window and
waited until she saw him turn into
the square and climb on bus. Then
she threw herself, all dressed, on
not rest, until she had talked with
Adele; until she knew if it was
necessary to tell-or if, after she
had told her more fully the manner
escape this extreme debasement.
In spite of her feeling that she
must see Adele at once, Helen fell
into a deep, dreamless sleep. Adele
raped softly before she went to
work, but getting no response, con-
as she often did when alone. so did
not disturb her.
About 4 o'clock Kirk Lansing came
in for a cup of tea as he frequently
did.
They had fallen into the habit of

for both. Lansing picked up type

about anything 1 intend to do I ask
myself: Will it hurt any one if /

You believe that?" he asked Helen.
Don't your"
Its the old Am I my brothers

"Perhaps L am selfish" Helen said
very slowly, as if weighing every
word "but it seems to me that in
everything that affects ones own
life, if it works no injury to an
other, one should decide to grasp
all Of good, Of happiness, within
reach"
Lansing made no reply. He read
on:
Nothing can be gained by con-
Tossing past mistakes. 1t brings into
being doubts that never would have
existed. 1t awakens distrust. Ones
past is ones own, it is only the fu-
ture with which he (the lover) is in

past belongs only to me. If I choose
to bare it, well and good. If I de-

affair-not his"

two centuries old. are intended to

A ton of velvet beans when ground
with the hulls will contain ABOUT
56,S pounds of nitrogen, eight POUNDS
of phosphoric acid and 34.4 pounds
of potash. A ton of cotton seed con-
tains about 62.4 pounds of nitrogen;
thirty pounds of potash. You Will
see, therefore, that there is com
naratively little difference in the
plant food value of ton of cotton
seed and velvet beans ground with
the hulls. The principal difference
lies in the lower content of nitrogen
and phosphoric acid which IS found
in velvet beans ground with the
hulls. There is no reason why velvet
beans should not be used on much
the same basis as we would under
take to use cotton seed or really
low grade cotton seed meal;
1t is, of course, too oad that any
food product of such value should
be applied directly to the SOIL, but
under existing conditions it seems
as though this is likely to happen
during the present year on account
of deficient market for many food
products which should have worth
while commercial value.
Personally, would not hesitate
to use velvet beans with hulls as
a source of plant food. l would
apply not less than one-third of a
ton Of this material TO the acre and
would supplement the application by
mixing with each, 500 or 700 pounds
at least $50 to 200 pounds of nigh
grade acid phosphate and twenty-fIV ",
to fifty pounds of murfate of potash.
This is, of course, no reason why
velvet bean meal should not yield
up the plant food it contains as
promptly as any other carrier OF
organic nitrogen.
