7HERE'S MORE IN THE MAN I THAN IN THE LAND.1 I Raleigh, N. C. Nov. 10?That oft' sounded doctiffie tof gx^cd farmingj "There is more in the land," preached ' by Dean B. W. Kilgore of the North Carolina Experiment Station, is. agadi) amply confirmed by the experience ol E. T. Crawley, a farmer of Batringer township in Iredell , County who i3 mow convinced that regardless of how badly a field haa been abused it may be brought back to a productive state without great expense ?f legume crops are planted. "In 1919," reports District Agent E. S. Millsaps, "Mr. Brawley had a badly washed, hillside on his farm. The field was in plain view of the highway and wns an eyesore to the extent that it would not be so op-1 ,Tussive. He filled thegullies, ter- [ I raced the field and prepared it for seeding to i"ye. He also made a - light application of -f imestone. In ?' the--pti^ig yf 1920, he sowed red clover and eecurod ohly a scattering stand. This was allowed to fall on the land and make seed for another crop. In the fall of 1921, the field p .- was again sowed in grain followed !' Ity clover the next spring. This time he secured u better stand. He I Ho; has continued this rotation until to- I day he is sesuring a perfect stand of I clover over the entire field and those I who pass that way } em&rk on the I K-' , beauty cf his farm. "With Ihis experience as u demon- I S ftratio!) Mr. Brawley is now renov- I K" ating the last cf his gullied fields I and is pirttUng his farm in excellent I vbaj>e.

SMALL-TOP PAIL IS BEST FOR DAIRYING , That the small-top milU pall la a distinct aid In producing clean milk I is proved by the largo amount of hair ?nU dirt that collect a on the cover of Such a pail during milking, points out F. C. Button, professor of dairy Indus (New Hrtmswlcl*, X. J. This accumulation will take place on the liood of the pail even when the cow's body, udder nn<l teats are comparatively .clean; Without the protection cf the hood, this innterial would fail directly iut.o the milk. The influence of the smalbtop pull on the number of bacteria" that full &> into m!Jk at latticing time has been shown by experiment to be as follows: _ When the cows >^ore dirty and roily h sterilized utersUh used, an open pail pave milk coatijiihing 8G.000 bacteria *tii 4"vcry 1*5 drops of milk, while a. covered pall under the same .conditions pave milk 'containing only 24,000 bacteria In thut quantity of milk. It hits been said that the hooded pall can generally be expected to keep out at feast 00 per cent of. the dirt and bacteria that would "otlufrv.-ise'^fall into the Milk.

JEAN held the telephone receiver clone to her pink ear, just as though Hob Phillip* himself stood beside Iter Instead of sitting lu his office staring dejectedly into nis own transmitter. ' Your dear old thing!" Jean murmured to Bob, and the response wus startling. "How perfectly idiotic to t,ftllc tbat way!" was tho growling answer. "What did you say?" demanded Jean In a freezing tone. "Does it matter?" retortcji the growl. "It may not luaKe* much to me," blazed Jean, "but I assure yon that tt Blatters to you. I am returning youc ring now," Deep laughter overflowed the receiver. Jean held it away from her ear in disgust. Her blue eyes were, wide with bewilderment and every . nerve tingled. Suddenly she hung up the receiver, and the tiny click seemed [to be the lock on the tlosed door of happiness. "The?b-b-big b-o-o-or 1" she sobbed recklessly. Fifteen minutes later Nora tapped nt her door. "Air. Wliltten at tue telephone, Miss Joan." Jean flung o? a hat and opened the door. "Thank you, Norn ;. please tell Mr. Whitten that I have Just gone to the poet ofllce to mall a package to "Yes. Mlas Jean, and begging, your pardon, nia'mu, your hat is on wrong side before." Jean adjusted her hat, tied a spotted veil across her tetithle cyesi and proceeded to the post ofilce to mail a certain registered parcel that contained one blazing solitaire diamond ring rind a sapphire bracelet (a birthday gift). "I hnto the ring," confessed Jean morosely, "but I wish I could keep Hie bracelet; n birthday gift is .another kind of a keepsake. i'OOh, I don't want any of his things. I will send his letters back as soon as I can collect them." Of course Jean knew where every one of Bob's love, letters were hidden; she also know by heart every word in every letter, and could close her byes and visualize the position of certain words and phrases on the earliest letters. She mailed the package that morning and during the evening Bob called. "She says she's not at home, sir," sold Nora with Just the. proper degree of respect for a trugle moment. Bob looked miserable. "Look'here, Norn," he said desperately, "what Is Miss Jean doing? Is she entertaining?or what? I must see her If I can." .Nora advanced n step and spoke In a Whisper. "She's been nowhere much today, and she crying, sir, fit to break her heart." She winked back a tear In her own sympathetic eye. "Thank yoiv . . . perhaps 9he will answer the telephone." He made his way out of the house and went to~lils club and shot into a telephone booth. Upstairs In her own room, Jean hoard the front door close dully, and applied a fresh handkerchief to her reddened eyes. Presently. Nora tapped at the door. "Tim telephone, Mis/i Jean," she said hurriedly. "This Is Jean Ross," said Jean, pick* Ing up the receiver. "Ah, Jean. What do you mean, dearest, by sending that ring hack to me?and the bracelet?" Bob wanted to know In bis dear voice. "If you will think hard, I am sure you will recall our telephone conversation this morning," returned Jean In icy tones. "Did we have one?" inquired Mr. Whit ten dryly. "Didn't we?" she retorted. Bob's voice took on a heavy judicial tone. "I rang you up this morning and asked you to go to the theater tonight, unci never received any response from you. 1 found later that we had been cut off. so I waited awhile and. rang you again, and Nora said .voir had gone to the post ofllee, and then in the mail tonight I found that ?that Junk!"
