she often went on picnics in her
childhood.
1T was a sweet, shabby little
town." she recalled. with butter
cups growing wild over the palace
green. We loved to go there on
picnics from Richmond and pick
the buttercups and dandelions. After
the restoration" she added, many
Of us who knew the little town in
its old days, greatly missed the
buttercups no longer allowed to
grow on the beautifully trimmed
lawns"
Even before the restoration, Mrs.
Brown declared, there was a beauty
and charm about the Williamsburg
gardens which seemed eternal.
Articles on Williamsburg
In Many Publications.
She tells an amusing story about
an editor whom she approached in
the first days of the Williamsburg
restoration. II asked him If he
would care to have a series of arti-
cles on Mr.. Rockefeller's work in
Williamsburg" she said. 'He re-
piled, What is it, new center?'"
In spite of the editors ignorance
of Mr.. Rockefeller's restoration pro-
gram it was not long before mag
azines and newspapers over the en-
tire country were publishing stories
Of the rebuilding Of Williamsburg.
Mrs. Brown found her articles, writ
ten from the viewpoint Of one who
saw the work grow from its incep-
ton, in wide demand.
Later she wrote Of famous Vir-
ginia homes and gardens in other
parts of the State. Her stories have
appeared in national periodicals and
newspapers. Many of her contribu-
tions were sent from Alexandria,
where she made her home after her
marriage to D. Tucker Brown, prom
inent civil engineer, whose work
with the United States Bureau of
Roads included locating the Mount
Vernon Memorial Boulevard. He
died in Honduras a short time ago
while he was inspecting work on the
nter-American highway.
For many years Mrs. Brown was
regular contributor to Richmond
papers. Her articles have also ap-
peared in the Washington Star.
Her interest in writing started
while she was a student at Miss
Jennie ELECTS School," now St.
GATHERINGS School, in Richmond.
Interested in Politics
From an Early Age.
Il loved English" Mrs. Brown said,
"and our themes used to be sent
to Harvard University for correction
by young instructor there. That
young instructor was John Macy"

successful in developing interest ir

he heard the great deep voice of the
hound behind him cold shivers ran
down his spine.
Away across the Green Meadows
and up the hill through the Green
Forest raced Reddy at the top Of
his speed. Behind him, with his
nose to the ground, came the big
hound, baying at the top of his
lungs. Reddy ran along the old
stone wall and jumped as far out
into the field as he could.

and he could hear Bowser the
Hound altogether too near for COM
fort. Looking this way and that
way for chance for escape, Reddy
saw just ahead of him a lot Of woolly
friends. They were Farmer Browns
sheep. Reddy had sudden idea.
Like a bash he sprang on the back
Of one of the sheep. It frightened
the sheep as badly as Reddy had
been frightened when Jimmy Skunk
had landed on him that morning.
"Baa, baa, baa," cried the sheep,
and started to run. Reddy hung
on tightly and away they raced
across the pasture.

Now, Bowser the Hound trust
wholly to his nose to follow fox or
a rabbit or his master. He did not
see Reddy jump on the back of the
sheep, so, Of course, when he reached
the place where Reddy had found
his strange horse he was puzzled.
Round and round and round and
round Bowser worked in q circle, but
no trace Of Reddy could he find.
And all the time Reddy sat behind
the stone wall on the far side Of
the pasture, getting his wind 7And
laughing at the smart way In which
he had fooled Bowssr the Hound.

Reddy was beginning to get wor-
ried. He was getting dreadfully out
of breath. His legs ached. His big.
plumy tail, of which he is very, very
proud, had become dreadfully heavy.
Mother Fox had warned him never,
never to run into the snug house
they had dug unless he was obliged
to save his life, for that would tell
Bowser the Hound where they lived
and then they would have to move.

watched old Mother Fox with
Bowser on her trail. Old Mother

SO that in . few minutes he had

Every trick that Reddy had heard

Winning Contract
BY THE FOUR ACES.
Think Ahead

The principle of anticipation,
which we formulated some years
ago, is we'll illustrated in today's
hand. Put concisely, this princi-
pie means simply that before max
ing any bid it is we'll to consider
whether your partners most likely
response will make your future
bidding problem simple or put
you in an embarrassing predica-
ment. Let's consider Souths bid
ding:

If East had passed over North's
opening spade bid, South's prob
lem would have been simple, two
clubs being the only possible re-
sponse. But East'S tWo-heart over
call should have altered matters,
for now, even if South passed,
his partner would be given the
opportunity to make another bid
if he so desired. Therefore, South's
three-club bid was freely volun-
teered and at this rather high
level should have showed substan-
tlal values, especially as North
would now be called upon to make
another bid. But South was not
prepared for his partners spade
suit nor could his long broken
club suit stand on it's own feet.
South, therefore, should have
passed two hearts, and all future
trouble would have been avoided.
However, things would still have
turned out all right if South had
passed three spades. But now he
thought: I've placed my partner
in a terrible contract, which he
obviously cannot make and must
therefore rebid my club suit and
hope that everything turns out
for the best" South's bid of four
clubs received its just reward.

Farm Advisor

On Asparagus

According to Frank BeySchlag
farm advisor for the University OF
California in Imperial county, as
paraguS growers will be vitally in
terested in the University of Cali
forniaS new bulletin No 633 just
written by H. A. Jones, former
professor of truck crops at Davis,
and q. C. Hanna, associate in the
truck crop division. This bulletin
describes in very interesting man
ner, the recent experiments and
recommendations in the grading
and handling of asparagus.
The results of these demonstra-
tions carried on at Davis show that
over period of seven or eight
years strong healthy crowns far
outyielded poor crowns that were
planted at the same time and given
the same care. Although the Pal
metto variety produces more stalks
per plant than the Mary Washing
ton, still the size of the spears and
the total weight produced were con-
siderably larger in favor of the
Mary Washington.

Seven Factors
ConIfoa Barley
Miidew Resistance

Breeaing experiments on the
Davis campus of the University OF
Califo. MIA have resulted in the dis
covery of seven genetlc factors. any
one of which will give resistance
to mildew III barley. according TO
Professor F. N Briggs OF the Col
lege of Agriculture.
The seven Pente., II -JrS we're
found in ten different barley var
ieties imported from all parts OF
the world. Three was the largest
number found in any one variety.
The Hanna variety which possesses
one of these resistant factors Is
now being used at the College Of
Agriculture in an attempt to breed
a resistant barley suited for COM
mercial production in California.
At present mildeW is one of the
three most serious barley diseases
in California. None of the COM
mercial barleyS now grown in the
state are resistant to mildew.
