Try Another

After these second crops are
harvested. you may still have
time TO grow a third on the
same spot. This third crop
would be for late fall and win
ter and should include such
things as rutabagas, parSnlps
and kale.
The big question in success
sion cropping is whether or not
YOU have supplied the ground
with enough nutrients TO sup
port the number of plants you
are going 10 grow in tin
other words whether you have
fortified sufficiently.
If you used manure and Vic
tory Garden fertilizer at the
beginning of the season before
you planted anything, the
chances are that you need not
fertilize further But if you
used just the chemical fertilizer,
what with all the rain We have
had, the nitrogen in il, which
makes sturdy stems and leaves
of plants, has probably been
used by the plants or has
washed away with the rain,
Mix in Fertilizer
In this case il would pay to
mix a sprinkling of fertilizer
with the soil before planting
the second crop, working il well
down under so il will be near
the roots.
Or, if you prefer, no fertilizer
may be added on planting, but
as soon as the second crop is
we'll up, a So-called side dress
ing may be applied This con-

to them than those two courses.
I'd rather cut out Latin and high

killed. old hand down on the table.

"a good many of our Clifford
young people don't 60 to college"
That's just the point, T. c.,
that is-just - the point I'm al
ways making. There's a layout
there that no new school could
duplicate. Why, I love that school!
It's got atmosphere, genuine at
mosphere! It's got history! I
could make it into one of the
places with a waiting list years
long, every name on it from a
good family. Cut out the girls, of
course. You'll never get gentle
mems sons to 60 to the same
school with girls. Make your cur
riculum over-cut out everything
but athletics and what's needed
for college entrance-tighten up
on the entrance requirements, ex-
clude foreigners, raise the fees,
make it hard as the dickens to
get into. Exclusive! That's
the secret of prestige, T. c., exclu-
siveness! Keep people out and
everybody wants to get in! If
the Academy could just cash in
on its assets-it's got wonderful

A car stood on the curve of the

consin! He stood gaping. The
car was small and battered.
The door of his house was flung
open, mans figure stood in the
oblong Of light, voice cried,
well, Uncle Tim, welcome to our

Timothy started stiffly up the
steps. A tall, loose-pointed man
ran down to meet him. His cold
hand was taken into warm flex-
IDLE muscular fingers, gay voice
began facetiously. aunt Lavinia
and l were thinking of starting
the fire department and the She

of his fingers frightened, the light
voice deepened to affection-in-

You haven't changed a hair!

searching the ugly, attractive

What the heck, Uncle Tim!
You don't need to tell me where
to put car for the night here.
I'll be back in a jiff."
Bent over the fire, Timothy
listened to an explanation of
Canby's appearance from Aunt
Lavinia. 'I'd gone to bed-well,
not to bed, my light was on. That
was why he knocked. If he hadn't
seen a light he'd have gone on
down to the tavern at the depot.
He says he's left Wisconsin and
the bank-for good-because of
the girl he was engaged to. And
he said it was by an accident that
he came here at all. He just
happened to think of us on his
way to New York to take his
ship"

'For one of those round-the-

had money enough for anything
so expensive and he laughed and
said he certainly had not. But
if he hasn't, how can he?"
