MANURE WILL HELP PASTURE
Top Dressing Often viii Bring About
Improvement Where Grasses
Are Undeveioped.

When pasture begins to fail 1t may
often be improved without ploughlng
by topdressing the land literally with
barnyard manure or acid phosphate
with lime. This is usually the case
where the pasture has plenty Of the
good pasture grasses which, however,
are poor and undeveloped. A top
dressing on such pasture will not
only bring good crop Of grass in
two or three years but also drive out
some of the weeds that overrun the
rundown pasture lands. This top
dressing will be better than reseeding
where the soil is exhausted.
Where there is decided dearth Of
good grasses, liberal applications OF
manure may be combined with plow-
ing and reseeding. Where 1t is neces-
sary to plow as well as topdress with
a manure and fertilizer, 1t is good
idea to grow crop of potatoes or oats
or perhaps buckwheat. Such crop
will pay the cost of reseeding. then
the following year good crop Of hay
can be taken off, and after that good
pasturage may be had for many years.

Ing from severe burns on feet and
body The youngster was whimper-
ing from the pain and the forester
TOOK pity on it, lifted 1t into his car
ana made it fast with rope. The
ranger started, only TO discover that
the mother bear was in hot pursuit.
The forestry book of instructions does
not cover this situation, but the ranger
decided to throw the cub overheard.
His attempts to unite the knots proved
futile. Finally, on a steep grade, the
OLD bear threw herself on the back of
the car. The forester jumped off the
car, and regained his feet in time to
see it continuing its journey. Later
the automobile was found, everything
intact except the seat where the cub
had been tied, the old bear having
torn it out to release her offspring.

them with the oxygen which they re-

processes of decay. This, in turn,
makes possible even greater activity

Nebraska is making long strides In

What Dicky terms the wheels in my

automobile motor on our return from
the shopping expedition to Easthamp-
ton upon which my mother-in-law had
insisted. The temperance upon my
horizon of the mysterious Don Ramon
Almirez, with his melodramatic mes
sage to my father, had set my magma
ton and my c%onjectures wbirling.
That he was someone / had known.
| was sure by this time-as SURE as
was that the name by which the South
ampton war-enriched family had ac-
costed him, was a mask akin to his
snowy moustachios and beard and his
tricklensed glasses. And, exasperatingly
elusive, there floated through my con
seriousness the knowledge of the identity
that was his. I felt as though at any
second | might solve the riddle of his
personality and / was annoyed beyond
measure at the d~ullness of my own
perceptions.

ENORMOUSLY from the tonneau. Il was
