Old Jed Thumper.
Old Jed Thumper ran lipperty-lip-
perty-lip as fast as he could to the
place where Peter Rabbit was wait
ing for him. Peter didn't have to
ask if they had succeeded in fooling
Shadow the Weasel by their trick
in the bramble tangle. He knew by
the way in which Old Jed Thumper
was hurrying that that trick had
failed.
Come on" said Old Jed Thumper,
leading the way. 1--WE have got to
run for it. That white robber wasn't
fooled a minute. 1t won't take him
long to find either your trail, or
mine, so the sooner we get away
from here the better"
AWAY bounded Old Jed Thumper,
and at his heels away bounded Peter
Rabbit. All the terror which Peter
had felt before meeting Old Jed
Thumper returned to him. But 1t
was a comfort to have somebody
with him. He had a great deal Oh

He hesitated a moment. His nose

That would mean that this Raoplt

off along that trail a little faster
than before. He had gone but
short distance when the trail of Ola

Rabbits running together the scent
was twice as strong and, of course
Just so much easier to follow.

Most people make the mistake of
fighting grass too much. There is
hardly a farm in the south that is
well-supplied with hay or grazing
ga it should be. Why should you
make an attempt to destroy one of
the south's best soil-forming and
grazing grasses? Think about this
matter just little bit, and see il
you have not some other land you
could use for whatever purpose you
had in mind, and reserve your Ber-
muda sod as an area on which to
Craze and finish several head of
livestock during the next summer
and fall. On the other hand, if you
are determined to get rid Of this
grass, you can accomplish that end
by proceeding as follows:
First, plow the land Immediately,
II that is practicable. Turn it over
shallow, thus bringing as many
roots as possible to the surface OF
the ground. The freezes of Febru-
airy will kill many of the roots. Har
row them out very thoroughly, there
fore, in the spring and then burn
them. Plant a smother crop on this
land this summer. You may use soy
beans, cowpeas or velvet beans for
this purpose. Anything that will
make a, dense shade will minimize
the growth of Bermuda grass, or
probably result in its being killed out
entirely. In the fall, you may plant

We do not think you will find it
practicable to undertake the COM
mercial cultivation of flax in Geor-
gia. Our climatic conditions do not
seem to suit this crop. The sug-
gestion has been made to plant flax
in the, fall or spring in order that
a very good quality of fiber may
be developed. Our experience and
observations do not coincide with
this suggestion, however. I think
some experiments looking to the
winter cultivation of flax have been
made at Brunswick and in other
parts of southeastern Georgia as
well. The results obtained were not
satisfactory, as we understand the
situation. 1t appears too hot in our
climate to grow flax satisfactorily.
While we may be able to develop
the plant to fair size and mature
some seed, the quality of the fiber
does not appear to be satisfactory.
All the observations and informa-
ton available up to this time indi-
cate that the best flax is produced
in a quite cool and rather moist
summer climate.
Flax of good quality as to length
of fiber can be produced in the
northern states, and this crop is
also extensively cultivated in Can
ada. 1t is grown in the latter coun-
try primarily for seed purposes, and
as a crop useful in enabling the
farmer to reclaim the prairie land
which he desires to bring under the
pillow for the first time.
We believe there are many other
crops which you could undertake to
cultivate in Georgia with greater
profit and success than flax, and
with the knowledge and information
we now possess, we could not con-
sistently recommend your undertake
ing the cultivation of this crop at
the present time.

WHEN MOBILITY BREWED BEER
English Upper Glasses" Proved Not
to Have Been Dependent on
Commercial Product.

Relics of I'VE olden days" show that
beer was brewed on their own estates
by the nobility in very ancient days.
On the site at present occupied by
Hay Hill once stood a farmhouse be-
longing to the Berlzley estate, which
comprised the land upon which Devon
shire house stands. Recent clearing
away of debris in the fine old gardens
has brought to light the old vaults be-
longing TO the original farmhouse,
which dated back from the late Tudor
period. When Berkeley street was cut
through in 1900 the old farmhouse was
pulled down, but only to the street
level, so that the original vaults have
been found preserved below the street.
The brewing house has been cleared
of debris. Briekwork believed to go
back beyond 1900 has been found, and
it is believed that the two mash tubs
bearing the lettering 3D." now on
view in the vaults of Devonshire house,
were brought from the original brew
ery.-London Mail.

WELL" said April once more, you
know March just has the most dread

Dreadful things are said to March and
of March and about March.
"It's wonder to me March is as
good as March is when March is talked
about so.
81 know 1 wouldn't be so good. And
as March has said it isn't March's
fault when Spring and Winter will
meet in March and will talk.
Spring gets excited and talks much
longer than any one fancied Spring
would talk, and people want to change
and put on thinner things, and then
Winter begins to say something, and
it becomes colder as Winter talks, for
Winters voice is very chilly.
"Then people say:
"'Ah, it is well not to change in
March,
"They call March treacherous. They
say no one can depend upon March.
Yes, they say all the things that really
are quite dreadful.
"Of course, it is true that March
isn't the month in which to take any
chances with ones clothes, but then
it isn't March's fault when Winter and
Spring get so excited.

Bird Well Named.

We are told that Pliny named the
ptarmigan Lagopus owing, it is
thought, to the close resemblance Of
the birds feet to the feet of the hare;
the legs being thickly covered with
short feathers right to the very claws.
This thick, warm clothing of the legs,
increased in winter, is in direct adap-
tation to the need of a bird, most Of
whose life is spent on mountain snow
field or cold plains.

And this friend replied:
"'Why, don't you know that April
always borrows twelve days of March?
OF course, and this is one Of the days
"You will always find that there are
about twelve days in April which are
far from being nice. and they are the
days April borrows of March.
''That is an old, old, old saying, and
a very true one.
"Well, when I heard that l did have
to congratulate myself on my luck"
April continued.
81 should say you are lucky" agreed
Billie Brownie. "Such luck I never
heard of before or since.
"And," said April, ''it makes it so
very convenient and NICE for if I feel
cross and if I lose my temper and act
badly, no one blames me, but only
March gets the blame.
"Of course, don't like to see March
get the blame for everything, and yet
do have to smile at my luck, my
amazing luck"
And then April sang this song while
Billie Brownie joined in the chorus af-
ter April recited the chorus to him, SO
he'd be able to sing all the words.
This was the song April sang:
april is a month of spring,
April with it pleasures bring.
April gets just lots of praise
On every one of April's good days"
Then Billie Brownie Joined in the
chorus which went like this:
''Heigh-ho, heigh-ho, heigh-ho,
April seldom has snow,
Heigh-ho, heigh-ho, heigh-ho,
Often with warmth April will glow.
Heigh-ho, heigh-ho, heigh-ho,
In April flowers start in to grow.
ApriPs the luck month";"
And then once more April sang
alone, and this was the song April
sang:
"ApriPs gay and happy,
Aprirs air is snappy,
Aprips air is also warm,
April will never do you harm.
And if April comes a bad day,
ApriPs not blamed for being that way"
And then once more April repeated
the chorus while Billie Brownie Joined
