WOOD ASHES MOST VALUABLE
Those Produced by Burning Hard
woods Like Hickory or Oak Con.
tain Much Potash.

The use OF coal ashes is permissible
on heavy clay soils. However. they
should be screened and all coarse Gin
ders removed before being applied. and
then should be spread evenly over the
surface and thoroughly mixed with the
soil as deep as II Is plowed or spaded
Coal ashes have little value as fertI.
lizer, their use being mainly TO loosen
the soil and make II more workable.
Wood ashes. especially those produced
by burning hardwoods like hickory.
maple, or oak, frequently contain as
high as per cent potash. and are val
liable Fertilizers. Those produced from
burning soft woods, such as pine. and
also hardwood ashes that have been
exposed to the weather. have compare.
lively little value as fertilizer. About
80 pounds OF dry. unbleached hard
wood ashes may be applied TO a plot
OF ground 80 by 90 feet In size, but
should be well mixed with the soil.

PEAS REQUIRE MUCH SPACE
Smooth Varieties May Be sown Early
or as Soon as Ground Is In
Shape to Work.

Peas are not adapted to growing
in very small gardens, as they require
much space. Most gardeners. how
ever, insist upon having a few short
rows of peas In their gardens. In
large gardens enough peas should he
planted to provide surplus for can
ming. The smooth varieties may be
sown very early or just as soon as the
ground is In shape TO work In the
spring. The wrlnkled varieties should
not be sown until the ground has
warmed slightly. Some OF the dwarf
varieties can be grown without sup
ports. hut the larger growing sorts re-
qulre brush. wire trellis or some
form OF support. The old-fashloned
English sugar pea on good soil Will
grow to a height OF or 8 feet and
produce peas until midsummer. II
should be borne In mind that under
ordinary conditions peas do not with.
stand great heat, and that they must
produce their crop before midsummer

DO STARS TwiNklE7

THE stars are really suns which
= are continually throwing OF light.
precisely as our sun is throwing II
on. The light passes through differ
ent layers Of air and vspor before II
reaches our eyes. These layers. being
III different thickness or density make
the light OF the star appear to flicker
or twinkle, just as motion picture

The light Is reduced In intensity by
one layer OF air and increased by the
next. with the result that Il appears
To shiver-a condition which we have
described by the word twinkle"
Dust In the air causes this twink
ling to appear greater. TO be magnified
or accentuased. Dust also gives rise
to rain, as each particle OF II forms
the nucleus for a rain drop. This.

the old weather proverb that "when
the stars begin tc twinkle, soon the
earth will be a-sprinkle."

Something to
Think Ab0uf
By T. n. WALKER
UNIFORM CIvILITY

TO BID welcome to the world when
! everything seems to be going
against you, Is to exhibit the right
sort Of courage and to show yourself
capable of overriding difficulties.
Though flrebrands may be thrown
across your pathway and backbiting
tongues assail you. II you still remain
amiable and courteous, you will
emerge from the ordeal unscathed.
Clvility and all that II implies gives
you the staying strength to surnount
obstacles and to press forward In all
'Sinds OF weather.
Scowls, frowns and short answers
very frequently make Of the talented
and gifted. sorrowful toilers. while.
on the other hand. urbanity and
suavity elevate men and women Of
moderate attainments to power and
affiuence.
Clvility commends itself to people
who know not Its name. but reeog-
nize 1t when they see It. The grabbed
old boor and the proud youth are now
and again arrested by Its soft answer
and smiling face. and even the rude
vagabond will stop moment when II
crosses his path and stare at It in
open-eyed wonderment.
In some subtle way civllity touches
hearts and knlts mankind closer to-
gether, yet, despite this fact. II has
a long way to go and a great deal
of hard work to do before It can over
take the masses and make them un-
derstand Its true worth.
To those who are Just starting
careers, and especially to the young,
good manners are as essential to
their success as good concentrations.
Indeed. politeness may be said to
be the better thing Of the two, for the
reason that II builds character. and
makes II imposing In the eyes Of 9th.
ers.
There Is no time In ones life that
courtesy Of behavior In the treatment
Of others fails to win recognition.
The employee who is uniformly
civil, considerate Of his or her en-
ployer, and thoughtful Of associates
as well. Is usually the first to win pro-
motion.
II you will think back. study cause
and effect, you will find as you reflect
that the greater number Of failures in
life had their beginning In incivility.
and that those who today are conspic-
uously successful In the arts. profes-
sions and industries were In their be-
ginning. and are now. habitually
courteous In words and acts.

n HINK of your tasks and not OF
= yourself.
Most of those who find their daily
work monotonous and imagine they
could get much greater enjoyment out
Of other employment would not be
likely TO make any greater headway or
find greater pleasure In doing any
other job under the sun. unless they
first had change in their own view
point.
Usually II is not what one may be
done while. makes work pleasant or
undesirable. When people are con-
stantly thinking OF self and placing
themselves above the Importance OF
the duty at hand. the task will seem
distasteful and lnconsequential, re-
gardless of how much its successful
accomplishment means to the world.
The story Is told OF school teacher
who hated her work and was ex-
tremely anxious to become nurse.
She complained that there was moth
ing to her life but a mile-long trip
between two ugly fences twice n day
and the intervening h5urs spent in
teaching the same monotonous lessons
over and over again. So she thought
IL would be so very lovely to don a
white cap and apron and devote the
remainder Of her life TO caring for
the sick.
Fortunately she stated her opinion
to a clear-headed and broad-mInded
physician and asked him to aid her In
finding employment as student In
a hospital. When this man heard
why she wished to give up teaching
as a profession. he kindly told her that
she was temperamentally untitled to
he a nurse. for nursing meant ex-
treme self-sacrifce. II she thought
so much OF herself that she couldn't
lind enjoyment in the work OF making
good and able Americans through
teaching. due TO her constant thoughts
Of self, he contended that she would
have even a smaller chance OF getting
enjoyment nut of the nursing pro-
fession. which demanded more devo-
ton to others welfare-
The young woman was Intelligent
enough TO know that what the physl-
clan told her was true. Hour after
hour she battled with herself TO get
the right viewpoint. and finally she
won her battle over selfishness. Then
her work became enjoyable and she
did II so well that Its influence for
good was reflected In her life and her
smiles.
No work will make one happy II he
thinks more OF himself than his Job.

major lines OF highways will be fixed
largely by topography. In many in
stances long routes will b" determined
by single strategic polnsS. such rs a
mountain pass. Because OF this neces-
sity. the department Is deslrous OF
having the states affected reach agree
ments as TO their plans which will be
based ON the future service that is to
be rendered. not only to the local but
also TO the Interstate and national
traffic.
The department hopes that IL will
not be required TO take ovei 4 single
mile Of highway for maintenance. That
Is the function OF the state, once the
road Is built with the aid OF federal
funds. But the responsibility for
maintenance Is imposed by the law
upon the department and this pro
vision OF the law will be enforced TO
the letter.
The department will not consider
that tile states are living up TO the
maintenance requirements OF the act
until they establish a system OF patrol
OF some form that places direct and
continuous responsibility upon some
one for the condition OF each mile OF
road. The word patrol" is not used
In the technical sense TO distinguish
IL from the so-called gang" system;
but rather to designate the proper
combination Of patrol and gang sys,
tep's to meet the particular require
ments OF each state.
The department will proceed under
the provisions OF the act on the as.
sumption that each state will recognize
the mutual responsibilities imposed
upon the state and upon the federal
organizations and will bring its opera.
tions at once into harmony with all
Its provisions.

ONE JOB is ENOUGH

A YOUNG reader has asked us n

asks II he can be a great lawyer and a
great vlolinlst. He cannot.
A man who wants to be a great
lawyer Is not going TO have time to
master any musical instrument mors

The law requires time and thought
The violin requires time and practice.

day with his fiddle. At the end OF that
eight hours his tired brain would re-
fuse admission to single page OF

too weary to hold the book.
