New Clover Gets
Most Attention
At Station Field
Among; all the new and Im
proved crops under test at the
central experiment st tion at
Oregon State college, subterra
nean clover has attracted the
most attention from visitors at
station field days this spring, re
ports G. R. Hyslop, head of the
division of plant industries.
This clover is a annual bnt
one that renews it, stand each
year by the simple expedient of
poking its own seed ito the soil
before the current crop dies.
It grows rapidly throughout the
season and gives promise ot mak
ing an excellent pasture legume
in coast and Willamette valley
counties.
Don't write in for seed, warns
Prof. Hyslop, as there is none
available for distribution. The
experimental patch on the station
is less than a tenth acre and the
only other planting for seed in
the state is a small one In Coos
county. The station has ordered
some seed from . uttralia; & lit
tle seed will be available next
season for tests in other coun
ties. Subterranean clover was in
troduced here three years ago
and has had agronomists marvel
ing ever since at its peculiar but
highly efficient habits of growth.
Shift Index
Revised Data
Difference Between Price
Paid f or lrodaee, and
Income Look Better -
Discrepancy between prices
paid by farmers and prices re
ceived for products, compared
with former levels, is not as
great aa previously reported, ac
cording to analysis of new gov
ernment price indexes just made
by L. R. Breithaupt, extension
economist at Oregon State col
lege. Rather significant revisions
have been made In the govern
ment indexes of prices paid by
farmers for goods and services
which will require revisions ot
some ot the data published regu
larly in the agricultural situa
tion and outlook reports of the
extension service, according . to
Breithaupt.
Raises Exchange Value
When the new lndexe. are sub
stituted, it will have the effect
of raising the index of the ex
change value of farm products,
especially in relation to the par
chasing power of farm products
during the 1910-1914 - pre-war
period. '.
"For some period ot "me we
have been converting the gov
ernment indexes of prices paid
by farmers and prices received
by farmers to a 1926-1930 base
and computing the ratio of farm
prices received to farm prices
paid on that base," Breithaupt
said. "These data ha e been
published In the monthly review
of the agricultural situation and
outlook and will be found to
require considerably less revi
sion." As of mid-April with the gov
ernment index of prices received
by farmers at 3 per cent of the
1926-1930 average and prices
paid by farmers kt "9 per cent.
the exchange value of farm pro
ducts was 80 per cec of the
1926-1930 average, according to
the latest report on the agri
cultural situation by the OSC
extension service.
So far as known tte orJy other
place in the country it is being
grown is in southeastern Texas
where it Is also proving hlglJy
successful.
Hyslop believes the new clover
offers excellent possibilities for
Improving western Oregon hill
pastures and others where irri
gation is not available.

CHAPTER XXVI
Edward brought half a pie out of
the cooler. It was a strawberry pie,
rich and luscious. "She might have
meant it . for - tomorrow's dinner,"
Marie put In shyly. ,
v ..'"Gosh,, '.no," he said, "don't you
iJmowop. jfcaver eats leftovers?
;- How about some coffee ?"
."SweU"iHi'C-'- '
.The pie was nearly gone by the
time tha coffee was ready, but that
didn't matter. They finished the pie
to the last crumb, drained the cof
fee pot.
"Who says we're not happy ?" Ed
ward asked.
Afterwards Marie wondered, re
sentfully, why their happiness
should be so closely connected with
money. When they had money they
were happy, when they didn't, they
weren't . .
Mrs. Wilson took the forty dollars
Edward gave her, without com'
ment
"Board money," he said, with a
touch of pride.
His mother made no answer, and
presently Edward said, "I know we
owe you more than this. But well
catch up. .
. Then she spoke. "1 hope so," she
said wearily. "Tour father does all
he can, but with Bee gone it's all
too much for me. The insurance
man was here, and the man from
the electric store. I don't know what
to tell them. I dont know what the
Werners thought when they saw the
ice-box go out. I don't see how I
can hold up my head much longer
. Edward patted her on the back
awkwardly. "Don't you worry, Horn.
And for heaven's sake, don't start
worrying about what the Werners
re going to think. That's just one
item we can scratch!"
. "That's what TOUaay!" she cried
fiercely. "And what do you know
bout it T You're never home. I ami
And how do you think I feel the
ear gone the ice-box gone and
Bee oh ! She shouldn t have done it
aha shouldn't have done itshe
had no right no right at all"
She covered her poor face with
her apron. Sobs tore themselves out
of her huddled, misshapen little
fir-re..
' No one knew how to comfort her.
Once Edward could have done it,
put not now.
- Goaty, they tiptoed bwbt.
Later Edward said: "Marie,
honey, wny dont you plan to go to
the beach with your mother, the
way she) wants? Too know how
thing are here, and really, Fd be
happier tz I knew that you were.
Thinrs cant go oa this way."
She thought of the comfortable
seaside cottage that Julie ' and
Charlie would have. The Quiet. The
runny sand. The warm, gently roll
ing surf. She thought of the easy
lue, ear again, and Charlie's well-
lined pockets. Her mother curling
her hair, generously pressing upon
her boxes of powder, new lip
. sticks... ,"; " '
It would only be for month.
Lota of wivea leave their husbands
for month. -
"WhatH yon do?" she asked.
"Well, 111 try and round up few
dollars. I can always do it round
the pool hall, though you raised such
fuss about it I told Herb he'd have
to get somebody else. And then IT1
beat it back to the mountains Of
course it's too late to ret the Job I
had before, at Blue Creek, but I

She saw it all. The dark forest,
the squirrels that scold from the
trees. The birds that sing in the
thickets. The white, rushing river.
the little deep creeks in which trout
live.
"Oh, Edward 1 1 want to go, too!"
"Shucks, you wouldn't like it!"
"I would I'd love it!"
"Well, I don't know how it would
work out, but I can write to Davis
and Red. If they're still willing to
take me in as a partner, do you sup
pose you could borrow a little from
Charlie 7 You know you could ask
him next month, when you're down
there."
"But I'm not going down there.
I'm going with you instead. Ill help
you get the money, though we'll
get it some way!"
"Confound it, Mane, I think you
mean it!"
"I DO mean Hi
lt was unfortunate that Mrs. Wil
son happened to come in at that mo
ment. She hated to see them even
with their arms entwined, and here
they were, hugging, kissing, like
lovers.
"Excuse me." she said awkwardly,
backing out.
"Oh, hold on, Mom! You don't
have to get out of your own house,
do you! Wait a minute! I want to
tell you something Mane . and I
are figuring on going up to Hum
boldtr
She looked at him a long moment.
-You and Marie T"
Sure!"
"I thought it was settled you were
going to send her back to her folks!"
"Ob!" Marie said. She took her
hand from Edward's.
"I'm sorry," Mrs. Wilson said, "I
guess I'm not aa tactful as some.
But Papa and I talked it over. We
told Edward he'd have to send you
beck.
Marie's teeth were chattering.
She was shaking from head to feet
"I'm sorry," she said to Edward,
"iTn sorry ii I seemed to force my
self upon you on your mountain trip.
I didn t understand that I was being
shipped home. It's fortunate that I
have few dollars left to pay my
way, after pawning my mother's
wedding present, isn't it 7"
"It is, indeed," said her mother-
in-law.
Edward's face was livid. He took
his mother by the shoulders, his
strong fingers biting into her flesh.
"If you weren't my mother"
She met his angry eyes with hers,
that had grown dull and sunken
these past difficult weeks.
"If you weren't my son, I might
pass nana judgment upon you.
You've broken my beart.
r Mr. Wilson came in, chin ap.
ready for action.
"Now whafs going oat Mow what
nave you done 7
"Nobody's done anything," Ed

ALL rirht," Edward cried, "all

chest, suppose you stop?"
"Eddie! You cant talk that way
to me! I won't have it! And if you
don't want Ada's name mentioned, I
can tell you that it isnt only Ada.
Your Aunt Jennie said the same
thing. Yes she did! No, I won't stop!
You haven't been yourself since she
came! You know you. haven't! Bee

"You're talking about my wife.1
"I dont care. You shouldn't have
married her. How do I know you did
marry her? You hear all kinds of
things about those Hollywood mar
riages. You cant believe what you
hear and you were always easy to
get taken in by a pretty face and "
Poor Mr. Wilson looked sick. He
said unhappily to Marie, who had
waited, frozen, by Edward s side.
"You musn't mind mama. She hasn't
been herself since Bee went. It's
hard on a mother to lose a girl that
way
She thought: If anyone else says
"aren't yourself" 111 scream. But
she was sorry for him. She put her
hand on his arm. "Never mind, Mr.
Wilson. We really are going away a
It will be better then."
He turned away.
Mrs. Wilson was weeping loudly.
The sight of her huddled, dowdy
little figure, with its wisps of gray
ing hair, her grief, brought unwill
ing tears to the girl's eyes. She
went to the kitchen for the aromatic
spirits of ammonia.
She thoughty. she's stupid and
mean and sheVbrought everything
on herself, and I oughtn't to care
I ought to walk right out this minute
with Edward, and -wire mother col
lect that we're coming.
But instead she mixed the drink,
brought it back, said, "Please drink
it," and when the weeping womaa
refused to take it from her heads,
she passed it patiently to Edward
"See if shell take ft from you,
honey."?
When the sobs had stopped a lit
tle, she turned to go upstairs. Old
Mr. Wilson took her hand. He tried
to say something, but no words
came. She thought she was sorrier
for him than anyone she had ever
seea before. -
But when she spoke of it hesitat
ingly to Edward Uter, he said, "Oh,
dont be amy. Look what be did to
Bee. If he didnt wreck her whole
life ft isnt his fault. He did his best.
It isnt his fault that she had an ace
ia the hole with Zdda, and he'a std
mad as a hornet boat the car,
though she gave hint twice what It
was worth. Not that aha deserves
so much sympathy either. She acted
like a moroa all the way through.
And look at me. I'm as bad. Yew
married ' fatto a good-for-nothing
family. I doat blame you for want
ing to get out. I wouldnt blame yea
if you left me flat." '
"rn aever do that,1 she promised.
"And yeuH really go op to Hum

The moths are - now laying

about one week. The spray, to
prevent worms entering the fruit,
should be applied before the
oggs hatch.
Lead arsenate- 3 pounds to 100
gallons of water is the stand
ard recommendation for the
spray application..
Thorough coverage of the
leaves and fruit is necessary for
good control.
Particular care should be used
in covering the upper portions
of the tree, as over one-half of
the wormy apples come from tbe
upper third of the tree.
