Different Crops
Value of Havinl She Entire
Farm Treated Gradually
Becoming Apparent.

That New Jersey growers are firm
believers in the value Of legume in
oculants is apparent from the flood of
inquiries recently coming in to the
experiment station, at New Bruins
wick, asking for incubation material.
This is probably due to recent article
IN one of the farm papers which err
roneously stated that legume inocu-
sants could be obtained from the sta
ton.
Available lnoculants.
Since no appropriations are made
for the distribution of inoculants by
the experiment station or college Of
agriculture, these inquirers are neces-
sarily referred either to the various
commercial sources or to the United
States Department of Agriculture.
Good inoculants are now available
from several commercial sources at
prices ranging from so cents to 81 an
acre, depending on the quantity de-
sired and the kind of material ordered.
To limited extent, incubation ma
terial may be obtained free from the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture on request Of the county agent
Names and addresses of commercial
firms selling inoculants may be OBJ
tanned from the county agent, or from
the college Of agriculture at New
Brunswick.
lnoeuIate Entire Farm.
The value of having the entire farm
lnoculated for all of the legumes COM
monty grown on 1t is becoming in
creasingly apparent, and many farm
ers. have thoroughly inoculated all
fields which grow crops needing in
oculation. Whether this is done by
commercial culture or soil from other
inoculated ground makes little differ
ence-the important thing is to inocu-
late. Those interested in the methods
of applying the material will find
descriptions in Extension Bulletin 80.

The Kink in MIR. Jones

Mr.. Jones was one of those nerv.
Gus persons inclined to hypOchon-
dria. His Imagination, from time to
time. afflicted him with maladies
which never really materialized.
Nevertheless, his devoted wife con-
tinued to share his apprehensions at
each fresh alarm.
One afternoon long before his
usual hour for returning from bust
ness he fell into the house. His
face was white as chalk, and in his
eyes was a stricken look. He was
bent forward. He tottered to a chair,
and, still curled into a half-moon
shape, dropped into it.
Maria" he gasped, ats come at
last! II, never be a well man
again!"
"Merciful heavens!" she cried.
Henry, what has happened!"
There was no warning" he said.
"All or a sudden, awhile ago, /
found / couldn't straighten up. /

SIS there any pain?" she asked,
fluttering about in her distress.
NO." he said. there's no pain
that's what makes me think 1t must
be paralysis. Run for the doctorw
She ran. She returned in a few
minutes. bringing with her the family
physician. She ushered him into the
room where the sufferer was and
waited at the door, wringing her
hands and dreading the worst.
Almost Immediately the physician
emerged He had his face in his
hands and his shoulders heaved and
shook as though under the stress of
an uncomfortable emotion.
"Oh, DOCTOR" cried the agonized
Mrs. Jones. lis there any hope for
him."
