R. BEAR awoke from his nap one
winter, and peeping out of his
window saw the sun shining so bright-

“Somehow 1 do not feel like get-

here I must get up and set my house
in order.”
When Mr. Bear got outside he found
it was not at all springlike, but cold,
and his raggity fur cont blew about
him, making him shiver and shake.

had some canned which thought
would taste very good on such & cold

PLANTING PEPPERS ’
LD-FASHIONED farmers in some
sections of the country will assure
you that if you want to have your pep-
per plants do well you should have
them set out by a red-headed person.
Rume thing If you grow the plants
trom the seed--get a red-haired per-
son to sow the seed. Some say a
quick-tempered, irritable person, even
if he 1s not red headed, will do as
well, This is a clear case of sympa
thetie magie applied to agricuiture and
the application of sympathetic magie
to agriculture is not only one of the
sidest, If not the very oldest, phases
of the mental development of primi
tive man, but is one which exists in
the form of various superstitions all
over the world today,
Hinpnnnnn
In some parts of Europe the peas
crops may grow high; In another a
sower of wheat wears a golden ring
in order that the grain may bave a
rich, golden color and a stone, wrapped
in a white rag, Is placed among the
cabbages in order that they may “head
up” white and hard; while in Sumatra

Instances of shullar practices might
be multiplied almost indefinitely, All

the Twentieth century, subsisting side
by side with colleges of agriculture.
