Little Miss
Boston
Harry Walden lay comfortably out
stretched In his steamer chair, day
dreaming, when a small voice sudden
ly chirped up beside him.
"Are you for Harvard?"
Turning In amused surprise, he
found a five-year-old girl gravely re
garding him out of a pair of red-brown
eyes.
"I beg your pardon; did you speak?"
"I asked If you are for Harvard. "
"No," said Harry soberly.
"Oh! Then you sre for Yale," she
commented with a touch of condecen
slon. "Wrong again," rejoined the young
collegian, suppresHlng a smile.
She looked at him searchlngly from
under a thntih of wavy russet hair,
then with dlgnfty announced In a final
tone:
"If you are not for Harvard, you
must be for Yale."
"Not necessarily." This long word
was obviously not In her vocabulary,
but after the slightest waver of em
burrussmciit she entrenched herself
brliind her former ultimatum.
"You must be for Yale, If you are
not for Harvard."
"On the contrary, I'm for good old
Princeton, every time."
Hut now the big eyes met his In
blank inquiry, echoing In the childish
voice, "Princeton! What's that?"
"Shade of my Alma Mater!" Harry's
appreciation of this Innocent egotism
brought tears of laughter to his eyes.
also an expression of growing disfavor
to his companion's face.
"What are you laughing at?" she
finally demanded. "It Is silly to laugh
when there's nothing to laugh at."
With some dltlh-ulty, he straight
ened his face.
"Pardon me, so It Is. Princeton, my
dear Mitts Hoston, is not altogether an
unknown seat of learning, where some
unfortunate seekers after knowledge
whom fate orTncllnation deny an en
trance Into Harvard or Yale console
"You Must Be for Yale.

The descendant of I'uritans ri-pllfd
to the one point in this peroration
which she hud Rranprd.
"My name m not Alius ftoston, I live
tliPre. My name Is Marjory Jlrew
stcr." liarry removed his cap. "I'm pleased
to meet you, MIhs tirewstcr. llow do
you like bcini? on the sea?"
In Bpito of thiir inauspicious begin
nln;, the two became excellent friends
during the voyage, and when It. was
over, little Miss lioston parted from
her "1)Ik hoy" llh tears; hut to the
l.-iKt, die failed to Krasp the posHlbllity
of any Intermediate state between Har
vard and Vale.
It was twelve years bi fore they met
again. Harry, on his way to visit a
favorite cousin, was attracted by a
girl In brown, occupying the chair op
posite his own In the train.
There was something r'mlniscent
about the waves of russet hnlr show
ing beneath the smart traveling hat,
and his eyes sought a tag swinging,
from the handle of a bag over the
girl's head, to fall the next moment
with pleaBed curiosity on the partly
averted face. Then he leaned for
ward. "flood afternoon, MIhs lioston. I'm
still from Princeton every time."
A pair of startled eyes met his
rather haughtily for a moment, then
the straight brows were raised In
placid Inquiry.
"Princeton! What's that."
Harry crossed to a vacant chair be
side her, remarking contentedly, as he
held a small gloved hand, "I thought
I wasn't mistaken in the wrinkles in
your hair; you are not changed a
particle."
"No," she assented demurely, "not
In any of my articles of faith. If you
are not for Harvard, you must be for
Yale. I am going to visit a friend in
New York In order to support New
England In the coming Yale Princeton
game."
"And I," said Parry with dignity,
"am going to encourage the dpar old
Tiger to lush his tail, and chase Yale
off the footstool."
"The chaser In football certainly
needs all the encouragement he can
get," she remarked. "When Yale Is
chased off he may possibly bear the
ball with him."
Presently, by comparing notes, they
found that Marjory's friend was Har
'Jr
ry's cousin; a ract which later gave
him a decided advantage over other
men who discovered the Utile lady's
rharm. Hourly he grew In the belief
that fate had deliberately taken a
hand in bringing them together. Hut
as he grew In love, so did he wax
strong In Jealousy.
Marjory, finding that her old friend
looked unhappy when other men
dangled at her neck, encouraged the
other men to dangle. Harry had no
serious mUglvlngs, however, until an
other Kichmond cantered gaily Into
the Held, clad In the threefold armor
of being an old friend -absurdly good
looking -and, most fatal, a Harvard
man. To cap all Misa Hoston an
nounced her Intention of attending
the Yale Princeton wearing only Har
vard colors. "For of course I'm all for
Harvard, every time." she said, gaily.
All for Harvard; Harry, reading a
double meaning Into the words, lost
all heart. Even the splendid victory
which fell to his old college could not
raise his spirits, loyal though he was.
As he strolled home from the game
beside his sympathetic cousin his eyes
Axed moodily on Marjory Just ahead
with the Infatuated Harvard man, he
decided to throw up the race and
leave town by the earliest train.
They were approaching a corner,
when the wild feoiiklng of an automo
bile sounded, nearlng rapidly, danc
ing up. with a little cry, Marjory
started forward Impulsively; but the
next second she was gripped and
swung aside, while Parry's big flguro
hurtled through the air to where a lit
tle old woman, helpless with fright.
stood In the way of a huge, onrushlng
car. He caught the frail old body In
his arm as he swooped serous the
track, and the great machine raced
by with a white-faced driver clinging
to a balky wheel.
It was subdued Miss Hoston who
came down to dinner that evening and
a snubbed Harvard man who declined
her hostess' Invitation to remain and
partake of the meal. Hut Harry knew
nothing of It, for he came In late after
seeing his poor old woman home. And
he mentioned casually that be should
take the midnight train.
At this his cousin glared accusingly
at Miss Hoston. who looked so peni
tently back again that her friend re
lented Into a "one more chance"
glance, then first coaxing Harry to re
main until morning, adroitly drew
the others off to play bridge, while
Marjory smiled on her Injured swain
and asked sweetly:
"Will you play my sccoropsnlmcnt,
Mr. Waltlen? I want to try this new
song I found today."
Harry, rendered wise by past singed
Angers, was not unduly elated by this
tardy recognition. Nevertheless, he
seated himself at the piano.
Standing Just behind him, the young
lady was fussing with a small pin,
and as he struck the opening chord
she uttered an exclamation of pain.
Harry turned In alarm, to And her
regarding a minute scratch with woe
ful air.
"Can you fasten this clasp for me?"
Hhe nuked plaintively. "I've hurt my
Anger."
Forgotten were her evil deeds.
"Poor little girl!" he said; "let me
try." Then amazement grew within
his eyes as they fell on the trouble

and black, with a pendant black let

He looked hard at the downcast face

a tentative Anger, it lid said lu un
steady tones:
"I thought you were all for Har

fleeting glance Into his, as a puzzled
volte ayked mildly:
"Harvard? What's thai?"

SOIL CHEMISTRY.
liy Profeor H. v. T or..- A.rrk i.ur.1
n i rore..or i M,.,m.
Chemical investigations have shown
. . ,...r.
that all substances are made up of ter-
tain simple forms of matter, such as
iron, aluminum and carbon, which are
called elements In moat substances
r r.r: rti ::;
or less complex form. Although some
eighty f t,u,,u' eli'incntary forms of
matter have been discovered, only
aU)ut a doxon of these are found in
anv nuantitv in plants. Carbon, hy-
drogen. oxygen and nitrogen maae up
about ninety-live per cent of the total
weight of all plants, i. e., their or -
K.nie portion, and are derived either
1 ... , . ,
directly or ...directly from air ami w a-
tt-r, the nitrogen being assimilated by
the plant after fixation in the soil.
TI... rotTiniiiinir Ave iter cent of the
plant consists of mineral mutter or
a.ih, the jxirtion left when the plant is
burned, and is cotno.iol mainly of the
elements of iron, aluminum, calcium,
magnesium, phosphorus, potassium,
sodium, silicon, chlorine ind sulfur.
These are all taken up by the plant
directly from the soil. Much investi-
.uii,,n ami fitu-ricm-e has liniven that
only four of these elements are likely
. . . . .. . .
to le uelicieni in sou, namciy, inmr-
gen. potassium (generally expressed
as "potash ) phosphorus, (usually ex
pressed as "phosphoric acid") ami cal-
.... ,, .. .
cum, (or "lime. a. it is generally
expressed.) These are often termed
the "critical" soil elements, anil are
the actual basis of all direct fertiliz
ers. It is singular to note that only very
small ipiantit.es of these plant foods
which are an essential to plant grow th
are soluble even in strong acids. Kich
soils contain approximately 0.2H mt
cent of total nitrogen. Analysis of
the acid soluble mineral substance
w ill show alxiut 0. 10 to II. IS per cent
of phosphorus (phosphoric acid I, U.!0
per cent of isitassium, (potash), am
O.oll er cent of calcium (lime). The
figures show plainly that proper and
scientilic methods of farming must be
practiced for the maintenance of the
fertility of even our richest soils.
The most imrtant of these critical
soil elements is nitrogen. It H com
bined with other elements in the ami
humus (decaying animal anil vegetable
matter). In the free state nitrogen
is a gas ami in this form constitutes
three-fourths of the air. The total
nitrogen supply in the air over each
acre of the earth's surface, if avail
able to plants, would meet the needs
of a hundred-bushel crop of corn every
year for half a million years. Never
theless nitrogen in available form is
worth 1H to cents a pound in the
fertilizer markets. The organic mat
ter in the soil is the nitrogen store
house from which plants th rive their
supply. Constant removal by crops,
oxidation of organic matter in clean
cultivation as well as watte through
leaching, all assist in depriving the
soil of this essential element. Kxpcr
ience has shown that under exhaustive
systems of farming the soil nitrogen
supjly is easiest impaired. To Mdd
available nitrogen to the soil in the
form of commercial fertilizers costs
from H to 20 cents a pound, w Inch
make it too expensive for use on a
general farming scale. Kxperiment-i
have shown, however, that leguminous
crops, such as clover, vetch, anil ul
falfa, have power to obtain free ni
trogen from the air through the inter
vention of certain microscopic organ
isms which live in tubercles Um the
roots of these plants. Such crops add
nitrogen to the soil, ami hence rota
tion with a leguminous crop is an in
expensive ami ellicient means of sup
plying this element to the soil ami one
that is applicable to general farming.
The mineral plant foods, potassium,
phosphorus ami lime, exist in the soil
in variuos forms: potassium often in
combination with quartz in the min
eral feldspur; phosphorus in combina
tion with iron, aluminum ami lime as
phosphates; and lime often in the
form of silicate ami carlainate (lime
stone). These compounds are by
rhemical processes, which are encour
aged by tillage, converted into soluble
or available forms which can be as
similated by plants. The plant can
only obtain these mineral elements
from the soil ami when the supply be
comes deficient they must be furnished
through the addition of appropriate
fertilizers.
The fact that ordinary wood ah..a
are so rich in (sttash as to be valuable
as fertilizer in.licates that certain
plants withdraw large amounts of this
element from the soil. Six tons of
well cured alfalfa hay contain l.Mi
fs.untls of potash, which would est
about $7,611 if bought in the form of
"V"" r l" l'n market. Pot-
ash is
usually stored in tho seeds of
plants in relative abundance.

The soils of Western anil SoUtbrrf
Oregon are generally rich in nitrope
because of their high content of Of
ganic matter w hich, is due to rlimtt;
condition favorable to humus forni
turn. These soils are almost univen
ally rich in phosphorus. The lim
content of Southern Oregon soili i-
usually high while some of the
lamette valley soils are apparently
ficient in this element. These
are in the main qui'e well itti ppl:e
with ttash. The acini-arid soiIj
Kastern Oregon, on the other hin
ilo not have the good supply of burr,,
and nitrogen of the soils of the VY'
ern purl of the state. This !
ilue undoubtedly to the difference '
climatic conditions. The F.atorn ;
