Disko, as it happened, was an old-fashioned type of banks fisherman, wise in the ways of fish but knowing little of the great world. He decided that this boy with his talk of his father's immense wealth must be crazy: with an idea of restoring the poor boy to sanity he offered him the berth of second boy on the "We're Here” at £10.50 per month, Harvey had a fit of sullenness, but his sullenness worried nobody; he went to work. The dories were re- turning to the vessel with their catches of fish: so for the first work of his life Harvey was set to helping Dan holst in the dories, to swabbing the nesting them on the deck. By the { i i i eating his supper it was nighttime, and Manuel, Penn, Long Jack, Old Salters. Tom Platt—all hands were standing by to dress fish, Manuel and Penn stood deep among the fish, flourishing sharp knives. shouted Manuel, with one fin- ger under the gill of a cod, the other in an eye. The blade glimmered, there wns a sound of tearing, the fish glit from throat to tail--dropped at Long Jack's feet., “Hi!” cried Long Jack and, with a scoop of a mittened hand, dropped the cod's liver inte ’'a basket; another wrench and scoop gent head and offal flying. The gutted fish sild aeross to Old Salters, who bone and spinshed the headless, gut- less fish into an tub of water.

GARDEN WORK IS MOST IMPORTANT Is Done for Sole Purpose of Killing Noxious Plants. Soil Particles Are Broken Up and Plant Food Made Available for Rootlets—Dust Mulch Will Retain Moisture. ment of Agriculture.) Most people have an Idea that gar- dens are cultivated solely for the pur- pose of killing weeds. As a matter of fact, the killing of weeds Is just one object of garden cultivation, say the United States de- partment of agriculture, The roots of plants require air just the same as do the tops, and if the ground Is packed or hard or is sunbaked over the sur face after a beating rain, the roots of the plants will turn yellow, and if not cared for will dle. The same thing Is true where the land is poorly drained and waterlogged. The water keeps out the air and the roots cannot feed the plants, Cultivation has that it breaks up and makes plant the feeding rootlets another the soil food of object, In particles for plants, available the in Some Gardens a Whee!

A handy little tool for loosening the soll can be made from a plece of thin hoard inches wide and fourteen inches long, with end whittled down to form a handle and the oppo. gite end provided with three No. 6 or No. 8 box nails or wire brads. This little home-made implement ean be used very soon after a rain to loosen the surface, so that any small seeds can break through. The wheel-hoe outfits are provided with a number of different shovels and scratchers adapted for the different types of work to be performed. These implements have the advantage that one can go over the garden very rapidly and hreak up the surface of the soil in a It Is gen- erally necessary, however, to follow with the hoe to remove any weeds that have been destroyed by the wheel cul tivator, water un rake are the cultivating larger sci cultivator age.
