REVELATIONS OF A WIFE The Story of a Honeymoon A Wonderful Romance of Married I4fe Wonderfully Tohl by ADELK G.UtlUSOX CllAPTKK 542 IS DICKY GOING. TO EVADE HIS PERSONAL DUTY? "Well! H' come. Madge!" T!i solemnity of '- Dicky's voice would have--startled me even In the daytime when fully awake. Hut he bad rushed Into our bedroom at half after two o'clock in the morn ing bating Just, come from the last train, and I wan yet bewildered from sleep- so that his voice and manner greatly alarmed me. "Oh! what is it. Dicky?" I ex claimed, sitting up in bed. "What has come?" But I knew, even before he had time to answer. For days we with the rest of the world had been waiting upon our lawmakers for the L.final decision as to our country's entrance into me worm war. con gress had met in final dramatic inint session the night before. 1 didn't need the flaring headlines of the newspapers Dicky carried In his hand to tell me that America had at last cast her lot with the forces fighting for the world's: liberty and clviliiation. "We're in the war!" I said, and then as the full realization of what I it meant broke upon me I clasp id Dicky's arm. "Oh1, it's '.so wonderful and so i terrible. Dicky." I raid brokenly. He rat down and put his arms around me, and for a few minutes we clung together as two awed children might have done. I imag ine it was the feeling with which many of the citizens of the United States faced the news, a glad thrill, an awed hush. I have never felt closer In spirit to my husband than 1 did during these few first minutes of the con templation of the news he had brought. It seemed as if it were a clear flame in which was burning away all the, doubts and differences that had beset my path lately. The Haunting Retrospect. jf OLDS tHead or ehesti are best treated "externally with. VICR'S VAPORU WOUR BOOYGUAPD" - 30. 0.l.3C BS- For days following our removal I from' the Brennan house to our new one we had bought upon the banks of the lovely little lake such as dot our part of Long Island, I had kept ont of Dicky's way as much as pos sible. For;, the remembrance of the photograph of Grace Draper I had found in the box Dicky had hidden away behind the rafters the box about which he had displayed such perturbation upon moving 'day troubled rae. Of course. I had said nothing to him concerning it. I couldn't with out letting him know I had Invest!- gated the contents ot the box. but the problem which the sight of the photograph brought me had been present In my mind ever since, had accompanied all the petty trials which the presence or Dicky's iuo taer and Cousin A Rath? in the nt-w luune while I was trying to get "settled" involved. I had not been able to nee Lil-1 lian. to ak her aovice concerning this probable re-entry of Grace Dra per into my husband s life, for the friend to whom I fled for couriVl In every dilemma was absent from the city on a business trip. And there was no one else to whom 1 would dream of. confiding any doubt of my husband. ' Madge Makes Her Fight. For Lillian, with tier keen dis cernment and her broad experience, probably had a. better knowledge of Dichy's character than any other bu man being had. even than I would ever have. She had been my staunch support during the awful time when Dicky had gone to San Francisco, estranged from me, and even before she had wisely guided me in my treatment of Grace Dra per when the beautiful girl ha-1 first begun to show her infatuation for my husband. Confiding in Lil lian, was a necessity to me, not the usual feminine luxury. But even Lillian reemed shad owy, remote to me now. There was not one in all the world but my hus band as I clung to him. For rising in my heart was the eternal primi tive selfish cry of woman: "I cannot let my man go to the war. Any other man but mine!" But not to my lips, thank God. not to my lips, did my mean-spirited wail ascend. I brought to bulwark my faltering spirit all the love of country, the precepts of patriotism which my little mother had instilled into me from babyhood. And-with my face crushed against Dicky's rough sleeve I fought out my bat tie as I Imagine. many another Am erlcan woman has done sintc that never-to-be-forgotten night.

I at last raised my head, ready to stand shoulder t. shoulder with my husband In any decision she should make, be said regretfully: "Gee!

Not a word as to his own respon sibility to his country, simply a re gret for the dramatic spectacle be had missed.

Marion county rnk first among the counties In production of prune. Pruning and spraying demonstra tions under coUece auspices hare frequently been held In prune grow ing sections of the country. Practl cal advice on the problems of con- enratlon of moisture, cover crop and DollenisaUon is also given ai these demonstrations. Cbesner Ikrylng Worked (Hit. A new method of drying prunes by which the cost Is expected to be reduced approximately 40 per cent1. Is being worked ont by Prof. E. H. Wlegsnd or the horticultural prod ucts department. Cherries are an Important crop 'n Marion county, espeelaly 1 since large canaeries have located at Sa lem. The best canning varieties Royal Anne. Ring, and Lambert, are both self-sterile and Inter-sterile. On account of this fact many orchards set to these varieties bore no fruit. At the college experiment station it was discovered that by planting long-stemmed Waterhouse. a good fanning cherry, among these trees. they would become fruitful. Large crops have resulted from this tueth od ot pollenlzatlon. Marlon Flrt la OaU. First place In production of oats Is awarded to Marlon county. Al though other common cereals are extensively grown, the profits could be greatly Increased by proper at tentlon to the selection of seed. The best cultural met hods and greatest fertility ,of soil are of no avail If the seed lacks vitality. The proper adaption of varieties, treatment for disease, and tests for germination of seeds as advocated by the college. it Is believed, would add thousands of dollars to the agricultural wealth of the county. For the service .f making purity and germination tests of all kinds of seed Ibe college makes no charge to farmers and growers of the state. . The crop pest service maintained by the department of botany and plant pathology of Oregon Agricul tural college has worked out the most efficient methods for the con trol and extermination of these pests. Stock poisoning and Its pre Vehtton. noxious weeds and their eradication, mnd plant diseases and their control, are some of the prob lems solved by this department. Orchard spray bulletins showing the treatment for orchard diseases and insects are provided for free distribution. A poisonous plant bul letin and an Illustrated weed bulle tin are now ready for publication Hundreds of specimens of diseased trees' and1 plants from all parts' of the state are tent Jo the college lab oratory for examination and for ad vice as to methods of control. This service is riven without charge to farmers knd growers of the etate. Timber Produce . Ik?avy. The forests of Marlon count? con tain approximately 6.000. 000.0OO feet of merchantable timber. In sects; diseases and tlje elements are annually taking a heavy toll from the lumber supply. The school of, forestry is training men in the most efficient methods of preventing the destruction of the national forests. preservation of which means em ployment for thousands of men . I well as material with which to build better. homes for. many generations. In potato. production Marlon coun, ty holds second place being exceed ed by Clackamas county. Experi ments condncted at the college show that most of the serious potato dis eases cr. n be controlled and reduced by seed selection, rotation, and thJ treatment of reed with germicide solutions. Potato seed certification a new system of seed selection was oiig inated at the college experiment sta tion. By this method crops are In spected at stated Intervals In the growing season. All dlseaser anj inferior plants are condemned ana removed. At time of digging and in storage. Inspections are made and It, the tubers come up to a certain standard they are certified as seed potatoes. This method enables the growers to get seed of definite stand ard and variety with a minimum lla billtiy to disease Prevention of potato blight by spraying with Bordeaux was discov ered by the experiment station.
