Ann however, didn’t want it. She
folded it carefully, left it with the
other costumes that Tommy’s packer
would attend to presently. The
show was over.
“What is he paying you for all
this?” Marge had demanded curious-
ly.
“Don’t you wish you knew?” Ann
had evaded.
Actually Tommy Adams had never
mentioned paying her anything. She
had supposed he would sooner or

she hoped he wouldn't.
be—well, awful to be paid.
And Ann knew why. “I might
have known,” she assured herself
fiercely, “that I'd go along for years
never thinking twice about any
man —and then make a fool of my-
self.”
Well, he’d never guess that any-
way. And, of course, she must say
good-by to him. So she confronted
him,
“Thank me?” she repeated.

She had a feeling that her voice
was going to betray her. And she
simply couldn't meet his eyes.
“I—"” began Tommy, with
characteristic impetuosity and then
checked himself abruptly. He snatch-
ed up his hat and coat, adding, “I'm
going to drive you home.”
“Oh, you mustn't!” phrased Ann’s
lips.
But the words did not come. “Slip
into this— it's cold outside,” he
commanded.
As if she were no more than an
automaton controlled by his voice,
she obeyed.
They found his parked roadster

silent for a moment. Then:

gripped it hard.

“And that,” she commented, her

i The car swerved as his startled
eyes held hers. “What do you mean?”
he asked.
“The sort that will have an affair
with a married man,” Ann went on.
She was furious; with him and even
more so with herself. She remem-
bered Marge's prophecy and flung
that at him. ‘Well, go on. Tell me

-- FARM NOTES,
—Raspberries, both red and the
black caps, respond very quickly to
the use of fertilizer. If the soil in
which the new plants are put out
is not rich, one should apply a good
dressing of poultry manure or some
well rotted barnyard manure.
' —A shade for the hogs pays.
—Cattle given free access to
corn silage and alfalfa will balance
their own rations.
—The greatest mistake in feed-
ing orphan Iambs, is in feeding too
much and too often.
Nothing will solve as many prob-
lems of the pork producer as will
plenty of good pasture.
—Many stockmen fail to balance
their rations because they feel it
necessary to feed what they have
at hand,
—Where pastures supplement
grain rations for hogs, a saving in
concentrate feed is made, the ration
is improved from a dietetic angle,
healthfulness is promoted, and the
hog is brought to a marketable
age at a lower cost than where
grain feeding in pen or dry lot
prevails.
—On many farms a small flock of
sheep should be profitable. It does
not cost a great deal in either
money or labor to keep a flock of
sheep, and there is a double return
from them in the form of mutton
rand wool.
—A good disinfectant used oc-
casionally in the poultry house not
only destroys the germs of contag-
ious diseases, but also many ex-
ternal parasites and some parasitic
worm eggs. One of the best disin-
fectants for this purpose is creosol,
one-half pint in 8 quarts of soft
water. A 5 per cent solution of
carbolic acid also is good.
; —QGood heavy oats make a fine
feed for poultry, and especially if
mixed with a little corn and wheat.

: —The roup season is on. Guard
against dampness, and drafts, if
you would keep your flock healthy
~and on the job.
—Cabbage isrich inthe green ma-
terial needed by laying hens. About
six pounds of cabbage may be fed
per hundred birds per day.

—One year old asparagus plants
are best for setting. The field to be
set should be trenched to a depth
of at least four inches, the trenches
being five, five and one half or 6
feet apart, according to the prefer-
ence of the grower. The roots are
with the root fibers spread out, and
for growth. The trench is not filled
in with soil until the last of the
first season’s growth, but just a
little soil is caved in from time to
time after the first covering which
merely covers the root in its loca-
tion. After the asparagus has been
growing, a handful of fertilizer may
be applied between these plants at
‘the bottom of the trench,

must be the practice of the grower.
At the end of the first year the as-
paragus bed is on the level, the
gradual filling in with soil having
brought the trenches up to the gen-
eral grade. Early in April of the
following year a shallow furrow is
made down each row directly over

gether in the process : of assimila-
tion. During the cutting season the
asparagus is being daily deprived
of its foliage possibilities. Its growth
at this time is produced by the
food material already in the crowns
and the moisture in the soil to
which its vitality responds. Manure
applied one year is beneficial the
next year.
When the plants have grown to
bearing size, the feeding roots are
located between the rows and ma-
nure applied there sooner reaches

FARMER was advised
by his livestock com-
mission man to ship eighty lambs then ready for
market. The following day, as he was getting
ready to deliver the lambs to the railroad, his
telephone rang. The market, he learned, had
broken badly. By delaying shipment another
week, the farmer secured one-half cent per
pound more than he would have made on his
original offer.

Bank Account, with the maintenance of
a proper balance not only gives one
money in hand for present needs, but
what is much more valuable, establishes a
certain credit with the Bank.
The banker knows this, and prospect-
ive borrowers who tell him they have no
bank account, show a lack of business
sense, and are at a disadvantage.
There are few people, who at one
time or another, do not have to borrow—
often the need is urgent.
Relations with a strong Bank will al-
ways help. The account may be small,
but it puts one on better terms with those
