Lime has a tendency to make clay soils more open, porous and friable and reduces their tendency to puddle. When treated with lime, loose sandy soils are made more compact. Lime supplies food for plants, and at the same time it has a most effective influence in aiding the soil to grow crops that could not other- wise thrive on the land. Lime encourages the growth of clover, and clover improves the soil and provides a valuable hay crop. Clover plowed under the second year makes the best corn crop, and so on. Reterring to this subject, a practical | farmer says the clover plant has the curi- ous habit of nourishing a minute germ, which grows on its roots and whose func- tion in nature is the gathering of nitro- gen from the air. germs exist in small nodules, which grow on the roots of the clover, and they are exceedingly rich in nitrogen, which they gather from the atmosphere to the extent of about 180 pounds to the acre. By the aid of these germs the clover above the ground gathers—through these germs—in addi- tion, 60 pounds of nitrogen over and above what exists in the roots. Thus the farmers: belief that the lime makes the over. —In a chemical way acid soils, like many freshly-drained muck lands and some uplands, are sweetened by the use of lime and made capable of producing more useful crops like the clovers. Lime decomposes organic matter in the soil and tends to promote nitrification and to increase the power of the soil to fix and retain such valuable fertilizing materials as ammonia and potash. Lime is best su slaked. This is best done by water on it and im- mediately covering it with earth so that the air cannot to it. In a few days it will be in a pulverized condition and most suitable for spreading. It should not be until the is partly when it should be broad-casted cultivated in the surface soil.

It is, therefore, to say the least, injudi- cious rashly to condemn a startling inno- vation. The post-impressionist revolu- tionists of today may become the classics | of tomorrow. But in the case of the “harem” skirt, it is safe to predict a short life and an inglorious one. There has been a saving grace in every fashion, from the rather absurd crinoline to the hobble skirt. The inventors of women's dresses have always had a defi- nite aim to obtain a certain beauty of line, whether it be through the accentua- tion of the form of the body or through a graceful fall of the folds. The lines of the harem skirt defy every known law of beauty. They are worse, if possible, than the hideous trousers of male attire, which for a century have proved the despair of sculptors charged with the task of im- mortalizing them in marble or bronze. The only thing to which the harem skirt, such as it appears fi the back view, bears any resemblance are the bag- gy nether garments which form part of the circus clown’s traditional costume. Surely it is unnecessary to adduce any further argument against this new fash- jon. The circus clown is intended to look grotesque and absurd. His costume is the of the extreme of ab- surdity that the human mind has been able to invent. If this were not so, the costume would not have remained un- changed through so many decades. And now the arbiters of women’s fash- jons have modeled their latest designs on this deliberate absurdity. It ns to be seen women will sub- mit to the tyranny of fashion poses to turn them into grotesque a. Quite apart from else the de- rivation of this new fashion, which is so clearly indicated by its name, should be enough to set women against it in these Sing times of struggle for women's Somebody's got ‘em from you. if you ever had any. that’s a cinch.—New | York American. 66C3 9 The Old, Old Story. t im eX “Daughter, has the duke told you the | old, old story as yet?” plunks.”—Pittsburg Post. fn working evil for another.—Hesiod.
