It was the procrs-ive Maiiain Weston who first onncehiM the hie of fitemHtin to Hnl Omond Rupert, ri Invitation to visit the town of his ancestors, so near the Ms fit? where he was now, on concert tour. And Kuport. the violinist, responding promptly and cordially, su.sirested thnt his services would be at their disposal for one evening. So Madame Weston Immediately planned a recital for the benefit of a local charity. Anions all the eairer faces upraised before him the violin ist saw hut one the young, old face of a child. Enthralled, motionless. It was as though Uie boy were hypno tised by the music, hypnotizing in turn the player, by his tense, wrapt attention. Vainly, Rupert endeavored to withdraw his Interested gaze from the boy's face. Then smiling whim alcaliy, found that face, his Inspira tion. When the last note had been lost lnrplause It was to the white-faced boy that Rupert made his acknowl edging bow. And then, following an Inexplicable Impulse he seated hlm aelf on the end of the front seat be glde the boy, as Madame ascended the platform to make one of her speeches of appreciation. With a shiver of de light the boy looked np Into the man's face. That was great," he breathed. "I want to see you when this Is over," the musician said. He noticed that the boy sank back as if crippled. And true to his word, after what seemed an interminable time of hand shaking, he sought out again his pa tient watcher. "You liked my musicr he asked abruptly. The little fellow drew a long breath. "If I could learn to play like that," he said, "I'd want nothing else in all the world. I've got a vialln." he went on excitedly. "They offered one at a grocery place as a premium, if yon'd pet enough grocery orders. "1 went out every day. and I got the orders. Cissy said that's my sister that she was afraid people gave me the orders just because my spine U bad. But I told Cissy that they got their goods all riglit, didn't tliey?" His pleading eyes were questioning. "Of course they did," the musician agreed. "And I learned to play myself," the boy went on, "little things that I'd hear. Cissy says my playing Is "beau tiful unto tears.' Cissy says queer things, but oh ! how she does wish she could let me have lessons. "She does a darn lot too much for me as It is," he burst out unexpect edly. "You see first, she was mother to me when mother died. I don't re member her. Then she was dad to me after dad died earns our living I mean up in the bank office." "Your Bister," Rupert asked he was strangely Interested In this absorbed young admirer, "is not as fond of mu sic as you are. She Is not here to olghtr The boy moved uneasily. "She was crazy to come," he said. "I knew that all the time, though she said, she wasn't But, a dollar means a lot to us. Cissy didn't know how she was going to let me come, when she read your bills In the store win dows. Then all at once It came to her, Just the way everything comes to Cissy. She had bought a new straw hat cheapest little hat. but then everything looks pretty, on Cissy, and she was going to Miss Smith's, where they sell navy-blue pompons. Cissy was going to perk the navy-blue pom pon up In front of her hat to make It stylish. And the pompon was Just ODe dollar, don't you see?" Rupert, the musician, put an arm around the child to guide him down the aisle. "Thanks," the boy said cheerfully. "Crowds do Jostle my spine, If yoo don't hold 'em back." The girl waiting In the hail looked up wide eyed as the two approached. "Paul, dear," she exclaimed, "I'm so glad you have come." "This is Rupert," the boy said easily. "Oh, Cissy my! You should have heard him play." "I must see Paul again," be said earnestly. "Such an absorbing love of music hints at promise. It may be my good fortune to help your brother to achievement May I come to your home to hear him playT "Will you ?" breathed the girl. Beneath the faded roses on the plain little bat her luminous eyes spoke fratltude. "I am staying over In the old town for some time," Rupert casually re marked, and this sudden decision caused himself no leas surprise than satisfaction. FIR TOIMTKHS. lYut'ry. o. A.

Alfalfa contains more sulfur than was supposed, and the sulfur supply on some Umatilla basin, central and southern Oregon soils is enough for Id to IS average crops only. These two facts go to show why sulfur sometimes doubles the alfalfa crop, when applied to the land at the rate of 10 pounds per acre. Sulfur has doubled the yield on trial plots in Goose Lake valley. . It has one to two tons per acre in experi mental trials in the Deschutes valley, dating back to 1912. Definite increases in yield have been gained by addition of sulfur to soils In thee Grand Ronde, Wallowa, Baker, Umatilla and Mal heur valleys.

Increase in the "esetable crops and protection from posts are reported from use of sulfur in the Columbia basin. No benetits were obtained from use of sulfur on the coarse soils at the lleniiistoli station.
