WHITTIER WAS IN LOVE ONCE
Writer'S Romance With Elizabeth
Lloyd His Only Sweetheart, Told
In Little Volume.

Whittier never married. His heart
never yearned in verse for Highland
Mary or Maid of Athens, and so far
as his work, and the superficial aspects
of his life were concerned, he seemed
10 be so remote from the diyine-or
Savonarola.
And yet is II now known the poet
who walked his days In lonely bache-
lorhood had had romance. had loved
md lost. had really in his own life
enacted. In u measure. the world-old
theme which found such haunting ex-
preston in his own "Maud Muller" The
story is told In little volume. "Whit-
tiers Unknown Romance" In which
his letters to Elizabeth Lloyd. Whit
tiers only sweetheart" are repro
duced. The lack Of Elizabeth's letters
10 him. however. leaves the story In
complete. They were destroyed. for
some renson. not hard to surmise, by
the lady's request.
Few illusions In Whlttlers poems
are traceable TO her, though the com
panlon OF his "Monadnock," whose
sweet influence he acknowledged, Is
said to have been his Elizabeth, and In
his own letters he attributed much OF
his inspiration on various themes TO
conversations he had with her.-De-

coIorina SILK in coeoons.

Much interest has been awakened
by the experiments at Lyons in feed
ing silkworms with leaves stained with
various dyes in order to cause them to
spin silk Of corresponding hues. When
fed on red food the worm spins red
cocoons, and the silk seems to retain
the color. The experiments with
leaves stained blue have been less
successful.
Although the expectation has been
raised that this process may prove OF
commercial Importance, the expert
menters say that they do not expect
to make any discoveries which will
affect the industry of dyeing.

SWEET CLOVER AND
ITS possibilities S
BY A. c. Cauble

Sweet Clover, tine once despised
weed. is proving itself to be most
valuable pasture and forage plant.
For pasture. | don't believe, it can
be excelled by any other forage plant
for this semi-arid section of Colorado
One core of Sweet Glover will produce
as much pasture as three acres of
prairie grass, and will extend the
pasturing season two months during
the Spring, Summer and Fall, and |
believe it is possible to winter stock
on sweet clover. If it is left to Srow
during the summer and used for
winter pasture, l am satisfied that
horses or cattle will thrive on the
winter pasture.
1t is not only useful as pasture
crop but it makes as fine quality Of
hay as have everfed 1t must De
cut at the proper time, and not rot
allowed to get too hard and woody
The hay is equal to alfalfa in every
way, it VIII produce a good crop
where alfalfa will fail The ii st
years seeding can be used for pasture
or cut 10 rhay The second se1son
is your seed crop. Ii the season is
a favorable on5 you may possibly
get a crop of hay and then later =
crop OF seed. But usually l get but
one crop. and that is seed,
Yau can take one cutting for hay
and then have fall pasture that cannot
be excelled with any othe. pa .ture
crop. 1t will give you pasture until
the ground freezes up.
We had splendid sweet Glove pas
ture this fall until the big snow came
December 10th. We have never had
any loss from bloat among our stock.
We have pastured horses, cows. sheep
and hogs upon it at all seasons of
the year. and in all kinds of weather
with absolutely no losses.
1t is not only useful as a pasture
and hay crop. but it is soil-builder
and one of the very best. have
talked to some farmers of this soil
wearing out, and they just laughed
at me. saying that this soil would
never wear ont but il will and some
of the most sandy soil is already in
that condition.
In riding along the roads you can
pick out the newer land in the fields
by the growing crops. 1t is said that
one crop Of sweet clover Is equal to
90 loads OF manure per acre. 1t is
surely a soIl-builder if that is the
case.
The decayed vegetable matter that
has grown on this soil for many years
has produced wonderful supply of
humus in the soil. which is one of
the most necessary adiuncts 10 plant
life. When the humus In the soil be-
comes depleted your crops will also
be deficient. therefore. 10 keep our
soil mp 10 the standard. We must grow
some crop that has the rebuilding
qualities that arr found IN all OF the
clover family OF plants We find that
the sweet clover is one OF the most
hardy OF clover plants and Is adapted
TO this section OF Colorado and while
you are rebuilding y.Hr soil. you can
AT the same time produce money
crop equal 10 any that can be grown
on your land an at the same time
you have a soil builder that cannot be
excelled IN any way
We have grown sweet clover for the
past fifteen years. have used r for
pasture, for hay and for Sc d. and
we dnd that Il is equal and In most
cases far superior 70 any crop that
We have ever grown.

THE NORTH POLE BY RADIO To Editor of The Age Herald, whose
 great brain must get steemed in summer.
 Dearest Sir
 Yestdy while walking away from the sunstrike, 122 degrees fairenhot I arrived to apt. of my Cousin Nog and find him playing tunes on a Radio which he borra from K. Suga a dead friend.
 "Sn-n-n-eeze! Ssssssneeze" say Hon. Radio while 1 look with cur iosity in my ears.
 What to do, Cousin Nogi, with al that science in your room?" l ask to know.
 "Hushy," he dib, q are sending message to Dr. Donald B. MacMillan who is now finding the North Pole again. Newspapers report that he might get alonesome, therefore l are sending him some American music This Is it:
 We cannot keep our bannannas this
 summer, Because of weather, Maybe you have taken a few of them
 along with you To Artic Rejons Where they are already frosted And are envied by us Who would enjoy to go to N. Pole
 and stay there Till N. Y., Chicago, Pittsberg, Hell
 and other American cities Freezes ever. No sir, we do not have bannannas But we have other things: Uncle Nichi has prickle heat, My dog O-Fido has fits I have wood alcohaulism every
 night. "o!!
 I hope you can eat bannannas On top of N. Pole And think of poor servant girl
 (Male & Female) Who requre 2 weeks vacation And gets less"
 I listen to that Japanese sing-sCng and require for information:
 Have this MacMillan boat, the Bedoin, got Radio inside it?"
 "I shall say sol" narrate Nogi. "It get such a large broadcussing outfat that there are no room for xtra passengers"

He lived on North side of Boston, thusly keeping near the Pole as pus- sible. Then he come acquainted with Adm. Peary, and what happen?
 19oS-He go with Hon Peary to find North Pole. It was there.

YOUNG MEN AMONG GREAT
Many Noted In History Famous
 When Mere Youths

In 1919, a boy who had been but lately In the cricket eleven at Eton
 was control officer at Erivan when hostilities broke out between Georgia and Armenia.
 This mere lad, riding asmule, and accompanied only by an interpreter and a servant bearing Union Jack, rode between the opposing armies and actually forbade them, in the nameI of his Britannic majesty to fight.
 The two armies obeyed and went home, and the lad constituted neu- tral zone as big as the county Of Yorkshire. For six months he gov erned this as first class state, en- listing police and appointing off cials. It was only when it appeared that he was revising the marriage laws that he was superseded.
 There Is something distinctively British about this story, but pre- cocity, even of this heroic kind, Is not a British monopoly. Cortes was mas ter of Mexico before he was 36 years old. Charlemagne was master or France and the greatest emperor Tn the world at the age of 30. OctaVlus was l9 when he divided the world with Antony and Lepidus. Nero, o4 wohm we are apt to think as hay ing grown old in wickedness, was 30 when he died and Calligula was only 2S years old.
 Henry V. one of England's hero kings, was 16 years old when he took over the command of the turbulent Welsh border. Edward " won the battle of Mortimer's Cross at the age of IS. Richard III commanded rear guard at Barnet and Tewkes- bury when he was 16, and as con stable of England ordered the exc cution of Somerset when 17 years old.
 The great Earl of Warwick did not commence king making" until he had reached the mature age Of v years. Richard II was only 15 when he ourageously rode out alone to meet Wat Tyler and his infuriated mob, while everybody knows that Pitt the younger was premier Of England at 24. Napoleon conquered Italy In his twenty-seventh year. and Alexander the Great conquered all the known world at 33.
 These achievements are mostly in the realm of action, but at Dante composed a masterly sonnet; Tasso wrote verses at 10; Mozart learned the harpsicord in his fourth year, in his fifth composed concerto so difficult that only the most practiced artists could play it, and performed before emperors and kings when he was six years old.
 Byron indited fluent and passion ate love verse when he was 10 years old. TennYson was a poet of great power long before he reached man. | hood and Macaulay wrote a Com pendium of Universal History" in his eighth year.
 Claude Vernet was celebrated as painter long before he reached | 20 Weber's first opera was pro- duced when he was a boy of 14, and Raphael painted most of his master pieces before he was 30 years old. | At the age of 13 Ampere was an ac- | knowledged mathematician. while Eichorn gave concerts at the age of 1 six years.
