pectations of letting the chambers

1t may be so, and that the dearest
hopes I ever entertained may be
realized with your good leave) at
an even earlier period than We
anticipate.
BY o'clock on Saturday morning
"ever yours most affectionately Charles
Dickens" with the familiar flourish
already under his signature) has
changed his mood. A letter has come
for him which he has read and re-
read until my headache and the
suns disappearance have warned me
that it Is time even for a poor un-
fortunate creature like myself to
think Of rest and forgetfulness for a
few hours" What the disturbing let
ter contained is matter for specula-
ton: 1t left three courses" open for
immediate adoption and after speak
ing about them quietly with Cath
crime, Dickens says, he would an
nounce his determination to her
mamma.
A Breakfast Party.
He makes the following proposal:
I should like to see you here
early. You can surely come to
breakfast at half-past ten-Give
my love to Mary and tell her I
rely on her characteristic kind
heartedness and good nature to
accompany you. =.
I hope to be awakened by your
tapping at my door in the morning,
and look forward on making my
appearance in the sitting room, to
!. find you heading my breakfast
table-you might without difiiculty
head more splendid one, my dear
girl, through life. II this thought
should ever occur to you when you
take your place at it as a matter
Of right, the only consultations 1t
will be In my power to offer you
will be-first the happiness and
contentment that hope you will
feel; and secondly the possession
of the interest and affection which
I know you will have awakened.
The Mary who was to accompany
her sister was then Is and was to
die at IT, young, beautiful, and good. ="
More than one of Dickens biographers
thinks that she and not Catherine was
his real love. His grief at her sudden
death was intense and lasting; and
"he always asked to be buried In her
grave" From other letters it seems
that breakfast with Dickens was no
unusual event for Catherine and Mary.
The lateness of the hour Is, Of
course, explained by his parliamentary
reporting for the Morning Chronicle,
which occupied him long after a new
day had dawned. There are many
illusions to the sittings Of the two
houses, and many apologies for not
keeping engagements, so full were his
hands with the reports and the Boz
sketches. One early morning note,
written on returning from West
minister, has the postscript: II have
been indulging in a confused reverie
Of you, and the tables, all the way
home" A passage in another gives
an idea of the frequency with which,
notwithstanding obstacles, the lovers
were able to meet: Il have not seen
you, you know dearest, since seven
o'clock yesterday evening. 1t seems
an age"

Seek Ways to Speed Cattle Buying
--.-- Plan lie

+ Ways Of speeding up the slaugh-
tering and processing of cattle pur-
chased in the drouth areas are be-
ing studied by a committee repre-
'senting the Agricultural Adjust
ment Administration at Washing
ton, the Bureau of Animal Indus
try and the Federal Surplus Relief
Corporation.
Word received at University
Farm, st. Paul, says the commit
tee will determine what processing
plants and facilities, in addition to
those now in use, might be avail
able for slaughtering, freezing and
canning and storing beef for future
relief use.
When the cattle buying program
began about 2 months ago, process
ing averaged about 5000 animals
per week. Now the average is no.
600 per week and efforts toward fur
ther expansion Of processing capac-
ity are being made. In addition,
thousands of cattle are being NOV
ed to states where pastures are still
available. 800
Appraisals and inspection Of cat
tie continues and purchases are be-
ing made as rapidly as the animals
can be processed. Purchase of cat
tie condemned as unfit for human
food will continue as rapidly as pos
sible.* Such cattle are usually dis
posed of on the farms. A commit
tee has been formed to meet the
problem of a lack of livestock feed
in the drouth areas.

INDIANS GIFTS TO WHITE
J.; Man Are Vast -.

Few people realize the extent Of
the contributions Of the American
Indian to civilization. How many
farmers know that they are indebt-
ed to the red man for many Of
their farming methods and processes
and for a large percentage Of the
very plants they cultivate? It has
been estimated that four-sevenths
of the total agricultural production
of the United States : consists of
econommic plants domesticated by
the Indian and taken over by the
white man. 49, q. :" g
Paramount among the plants
that the Indian has contributed Is
corn or maize. The white potato,
one of the worlds greatest food
staples, was grown originally by
the Indian in the Andes. One Of
the most important of our present.
day crops tobacco, is still anoth-
er valuable gift of the red man.
Among other plants domesticated
and developed by the Indian are:
pumpkin, squash, sweet potato, to-
mato, pineapple, many varieties of
kidney and lima beans, peanut, and
artichoke. .- .,-~.&.-[
The Indian method Of planting
corn and other plants of Indian Or
igin in hills. and heaping earth
about their stalks during cultivation
is still a fundamental process in
modern farming.
These and other facts were
brought out in a paper on Gamer
lean Indian Contributions to Civil
ization" presented at the twelfth
annual state historical tour and
convention Of the Minnesota Histor-
ical society by Mr.. Everett e. Ed
