Last Saturday Mail Carrier FL
mer Compton brought to the Her
aid office sprig from an apple
tree filled with sweetly perfumed
blossoms, reminding one very
forcibly Of the early spring time.
The blossoms came from the Carl
Hildebrand farm, six miles west of
Sauk Centre.

the Rural Letter Carriers Associa-
ton of Stearns, Benton and Sher-

other points.
The Texas Party" people are
busy engaged in cutting lawns and
other useful work, the trip having

When and how should raspberry
bushes be pruned?
Raspberry bushes should be
pruned in the fall or late summer,
after the plants have finished
fruiting, and again in the spring.
In the fall, cut out all old canes
as they are of no further use to
the plants and will die anyway.
Also cut out all surplus young weak
canes, leaving only the strong Wig
orous new shoots that you desire
for fruiting next year. In the

tatoes which are uniform In quail
ity and size. These are two import
ant objections Twin City consum-
ers have to Minnesota potatoes.
Third, development Of culinary
practices which may improve the
keeping quality Of potatoes after
cooking. Highgrade eating places
state that they cannot use Mime
sofa potatoes because they turn
dark after cooking.

Book Reviews
BY Miss MWette Liadelof

MARY, QUEEN OF SCOTLAND
AND THE ISLES-Stefan Zweig.
Stefan Zweig has written a new
and very dramatic story Of the life
Of Mary, Queen of Scotland. His
story is somewhat narrower in
scope than others, but it is strong
ly focused on the last two years of
Marys life when her Stuart blood
carried her to the height of pas
sion and the depth of ill-repute.
The reader will not expect sub
stantial history of Mary's reign. In
so troubled and complicated a per-
iod there are many things left un-
done by the author. But he does
make powerful and thrilling
story Of the life Of the ill-fated
Mary. Mary was a failure, she had
ill-luck; she could not, to the end,
protect herself.
Mr.. Zweig has written with his
talent for simple exposition, his
ready flow Of emotion and his rich
psychology of human life. It Is a
most dramatic book and recon-
mended as a book worth reading.
VEIN OF IRON-Ellen Glasgow.
Vein of Iron has to do primarily
with the fortunes Of the Fincastle
family. They had been emigrants
out of Ulster, stanch Presbyterians.
Although Grandmother Fincastle,
her philosopher son, his wife are
all fully realized characters, the
story focuses upon the life Of Ada,
a girl who is sister in spirit to the
dauntless to Dorinda Of Barren
Ground" Ada's youth is shadowed
by misfortune in love; the happi-
ness to which she looked forward
is robbed by another girl.
But at last they are reunited, and
win through to something else,
Something deeper and more abid-
ing, and which served them bet
ter, perhaps, in the stress Of the
years that followed the crash Of
1929.
ASYLUM = William Seabrook.
William Seabrook, who had al
ready gone adventuring profession
ally in Haiti, Arabia and Africa
got himself committed-as a
drunkard-to a famous institution.
He stayed seven months, missing
no detail of the life around him.
His book is candid and very in
teresting record Of those days.
The most important thing his
book does Is to show how effective
ly and successfully mental cases
are treated, how many people are
permanently cured, how intelligent
ly the best doctors, nurses and at
tendants carry on their work.
The book is amusing. There are
funny incidents which Author Sea-
brook relates. Among the patients
from all walks Of life there were
some who knew almost as much
about mental disorders as the doc
tors, and they all had a way Of
poking fun at the staff's efforts to
use euphemism. The characters
Mr.. Seabrook meets, the treat
ment the inmates receive give one
a new understanding Of such insti-
tutions.

Old Bomber Joe Louis win enter
the ring In better condition than
Baer despite the foretold rejuven-
alton Of that clown" Of the ring,
say the sages and seers Of the
fight world. Joe isn't pulling his
punches with his sparring part
ners. He lays them in a heap and
grimly takes on the next one. He
daily goes through all the tricks
and maneuvers which he hopes will
take Baer on the oath. His left
hook Is said to be better than his
right cross. Joe glides, weaves and
blocks with effortless ease-and he
does this all in training. He does
not drink, smoke, or chew, but he
has a little "gap who is interested
in a champion named Louis, and
incidentally whose fried chicken

Ct CALL It downright selfish" said
u the small woman IN the cocky
red hat, who was the most articulate
OF the five bewailing the opening Of
a taproOm at our club. A taproom,
mind you, which would be barred to
women. A cloud OF discomfort hung
over the room. Pouts pulled at
rouged lips. and the air was charged
with feminine anger.
But beneath the apologize ex-
cUses Of the men one caught a ring
OF exultation. Bright CLEANS of Joy
shone from their eyes. and outside
they snickeTed together like naughty
boys outwitting their mothers.
The women sensed all this, al
though they closed their eyes to it
and 50 managed TO preserve the lllu-
sion Of their power, a power which
has been misused and is on the
Wanc.
For we have trickled after men
ike slow molasses. Inexorably We
have trailed them, into their offices,
clubs, golf courses, barber shops and
saloons. Now and then the pursuit.
assumes the proportions Of a chase,
so that our hearts are moved with
pity for the poor wretches who, in
all THEN great world, have no place
to which they can go to escape their
women. With no privacy at home,
no rooms Of their own, with their
offices cluttered with girls, their
streets impossible with shoppers,
their voting booths jammed. their
very bars occupied by matron and
maid. the American man finds him
self literally a lost soul in a universe
of women.
Perhaps, after all, he doesn't par
ticularly mind our going into bust
ness with him or entering profess
sions or meddling with politics or
hOgging the baseball grandStand
Perhaps he's merely tired of having
us eternally under foot. Sometimes

I get little tired Of us myself, and
so can imagine how the men must
feel as We come popping out from
behind doors, or sneak up on them
at their clubs, or push their feet of
the bar rails.
If women know what's good for
them, they'll begin to make them
selves scarce in certain places sacred
to the men and not go breaking
down the taproom doors.

SHIP MAIL PROVISIONS
CHANGED BY PRESIDENT
Contract Clauses of Pending Bill
Altered to Roosevelt Wishes.

By Scripps-HoioGrd Newspaper Alliance
WASHINGTON, April 25.-The
mail contract provisions Of the
pending ship-subsidy bill have been
abandoned because Of Administra-
ton pressure.
The first draft of the bill, as Of
fered by Senator Royal Copeland
ID, N. ", authorized the Post
master General to enter into con-
tracts with ship operators on much
the same basis as at present. The
second draft, just made public,
omits this feature.
Senator Copeland said the Pres
ident felt that the government
should be in a position to transport
mail on any Ship-the way it ham
dies railroad mail. He said Mr.
Roosevelt also was holding to the
position expressed in a message to
Congress that hidden subsidies"
such as the ocean mail contracts,
must be eliminated.
