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.

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.

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.

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.

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

Prevention of potato blight by
