CHAPTER VI
Jerry Calls for Help
Jerrold returned to his home that
night in an unnaturally depressed and
embittered frame of mind. Why
should he, he demanded of Prudence
in a stern voice, be saddled with a
protege like that—as big as himself,
and who by his own admission knew
nothing of motor cars beyond the steer
ing wheel. Prudence agreed with him
that it was perfectly reprehensible on
the part of their daughter, and she
couldn’t imagine what things were
coming to with this new generation!
She balanced herself on the edge of
the bathtub while he was ^having,
followed him meekly Into tb*. room
they shared together and stood pa
thetically besidq^hlm at the dressing-
table while he viciously jerked a fresh
tie Into place.
“It’s the way you’ve raised her," he
said la a tone that cleared himself of
all moral responsibility for Jerry at
least, however much Duane might rest
upon his shoulderi.
"I know It," Prudence agreed meekly.

flashed, darkened with rage.
She thruit-ept angry hands, and caoght
the delicate flowers roughly, to tear
them from her mother’s arm. Pru
dence gently but with great firmness
retained her hold.
"Jerry I They’re mine."
^ The soft voice was softer than ever
before. Jerry’i hands clung mutinous
ly for a moment and then dropped
weakly to her sides.
- “Mother, plfense,’* she whispered.
“1—I can’t , stand them in the house.’’
And then, with a pitiful attempt to
laugh away her display of emotion, she
said with a sorry smile, “I—I must be
developing nerves."
Prudence looked into her eyes, re
lented quickly, “I’ll send them down
to Carol. > Katie can take them to the
mail at once. Jnlla adores flowers."
The next morning, at ten o’clock,
Jerry stood at the window listening for
the expected, unwelcome ring at her
door. It did not come. Ten-thirty,
eleven—and no flowers. There was
sad suspicion in her eyes as ahe
glanced now and then, furtively, at her
mother. Would her very own work in
league against her? v
Jerry had no slightest doubt of the
honor and the uprightness of her stub
born stand. It was really a final des
perate struggle In defense of her most
sacred, girlish principle of purity, that
inherent niceness of thought, reserve
of person, that tarnlsties at best, so
quickly. Jerry had flirted, had frivoled
Joyously from beau to beau, had
laughed at tentative, trnantlng caresses
in sheer llght-heartedness of spirit—
thht was when the real Jerry had
slipped by untouched. But with that
tender ideal enshrined in the romantic
glamour of her guarded youth, ahe
would brook no trifling.
She worked with passionate intensity,
bending over the sketches for her
houses and her columns of figures far,
far into the night She did not sleep
well, she had no appetite, and unupual
d»rk circles outlined the lovely misty
eyes.
On her first attempt at renovation,
the old hoqse on Seventeenth street
opposite the park, after weeks of work
and worry and passionate devotion, she
cleared but a paltry three hundred
dollars, for all the fabulous towering
of her hopes. Jerry laughed at that,
gamely.
“I don’t care! See how much fun
Pve had. And look what a lot of things
I learned I I’ll make it up on the next
one, you’ll see!"
Rut not all her Intense concentration
In her work could account for the pa
thetic pallor of her face. In the end.
Jerrold felt that nothing would come
of It He said so to Prudence, many
times: Prudence said nothing.
She asked If Dnsne Was taking an
Interest in tke business. If he worked
hard, earned his salary.
“You be*- he earns it, staying in the
seme town with that daughter of
yours,“ Jerrold said resentfully; and
added more moderately:- “Well, no, 1
can’t say that be works much—If any.
But be sticks around. And people
come In to look him over—and Inci
dentally get a view of the car while
they’re in. And the boys seem to like
him."

Oct. 22, 1925—It.
For those farmers who already
have orchards now is the time to pull
down the mounds which were made
in July, allowing the cold winter
weather to kill the borers. Where the
trees were not mounded they should
be pruned around to a depth of two
to four inches at the base of the tree,
# •
thereby securing results which, of
course, are not as effective as the
mounding process, but does a great
deal of good. As soon as the leaves
have fallen from the trees, prunding
should be done, removing all dead
wood, cutting out the growth where
necessary, getting the trees in good
share. All wood cut from the or
chard should be carried away and
burned. The next thing necessary is
the proper spraying, which should be
done following the pruning. The
trees should be given a thorough ap
plication of spraying mixture con
sisting of one part of commercial lime
sulphur to eight parts of water.
Where possible a cover crop should
be sown in the orchard at this time,
rye or oats making one of the hest
cover crops which should not be al
lowed to mature a crop of grain Yn
the spring, in which case it should be
turned under before it begins to
head out. Where a farmer does not
have sufficient orchard, arrangements
should be made this winter to set
from a quarter to an acre in a home
orchard. Reliable trees can be se
cured at a very reasonable price, five
to twenty dollars being sufficient to
pay for the trees to be set out in the
above amount of land. Those inter
ested should secure information, as to
best prices and "varieties from this ,
