"J noticed a statement some time s i nee tili at squashes planted with can taloupes would he taken hy the worms and the cantaloupes let alone. 1 have always heard that squashes, cue umbers and cantaloupes will cross with each other and the cantaloupes would be ruined. ls this a fact?" No, it is not a fact. Squashes will eros? with otiher squash varieties and with pumpkins and gourds, but none of them will cross with cantaloupes or watermelons, and cucumbers will not cross wit/1) them either. Karmi Pear Trees. "I have some fine Kieffer pear trees which fail lo hear, and have a little blight. Is there anything I can do .to make them hear?" The Kieffer pear is often imperfect in its flowers and falls to produce pollen enough to set the fruit. The host, thing will he to plant some trees Of the earlier and Leconte varieties near the Kleffers to set the fruit on them. Cut out the blighted wood in1o sound wood. L?gumes for Low Land. "What legume is best for low land? How can I tell when the soil is in good condition to plow?'* The best legume for low land is al sike clover. When the soil crumbles nicely from Hie plow it is all right, hut when thc furrows turn shiny il i. too wet. Heading Lctt&uce. Sow l?Mtnee seed in February and March and transplant to heavily ma nured soil eight, indies aparl and push Phe plants along with nitrate of soda to head before the weather gets too hoi. Seed for the Pall crop are sown early in August, and for the winier frames in September. For .Ibo spring sowing use the Hanson or the Wonderful, and for fall Big Bos ion. lied nee Cotton Acreage. This is our "last call" for reduc tion of cottoi. acreage and an increase in forage crops. If the South fails to produce her feed crops this year she can have no excuse to offer, no niaitter how 'high feed prices go, or how low cotton sells next fall, or how hard times become. Corn, soy beans, velvet heans, cow peas lespede/.a, sorghum, peanuts and a prolusion of ot 1MM- crops scarcely less val 'able of fer us a great opportunity. Will we do the same again this year? Cost ?d' Cultivation. Among thc most, important of all the benefits of thorough preparation we believe is the saving of expense in lalor cultivation. We do not over look the benefit of preparation in ob taining a good stand, nor any of the other results of tillage: but the use of those implements which aro most efficient and economical in the earlj cultivation of tho crop is so depend ent on thorough preparation that we regard this one benefit alone which rosuIu> from good preparation sufli cionl to justify any one- in ghing ex tra work lo the soil before the crops are planted. Il is a well known fact that the most, expensive implement used for cultivating (aun, coll?n and other row crops in the South is the hoe. Until we reduce hhe hoeing do the lowest possible amount we cannot produce such crops most economical ly. Thal the abundance ol' labor in the past has fixed on our practice a too extensive use ol' the hoe cannot bo denied. Even our best farm? rs are frequently victims of this expen sive habit and there are few among us who give as much though! to cut ting out this expensive method of cultivating a crop as we should.

Quarrel Between Client and Attorney Reveals Hidden Knots. New York, March ll.-A secretly Instituted and carefully concealed suit for $200,000 damages, brought by .Mrs. Louise M. Ball In the spring of HU 3 against Janies B. Duke, the tobacco financier, and settled out oi count a year later for $7,500, came lo light yesterday when Supreme Court Justice Lehman handed down a decision in an action between Mrs. Ball and Waiter L. Severance, her attorney, over the division >. the money. Mrs. Dail charged that Duke had agreed to support her for life in re turn Tor information and evidence she had obtained for him. At the onVe or Cressfield Brothers, attorneys for Mrs. Bail in 'her action against Severance, it was said their Client is a sister of Mrs. Lillian M. Duke, the Hist wife of 'the tobacco millionaire, and that the Informa tion Mrs. Bail obtained for him made it possi'blo for him to win a divorce suit against her sister. Must Stand by Contract. In the action before Justice Leh man, Mrs. Bail charged that Sever ance had kepi more than his half share of the $7. Ti no settlement. She made other charges, but the Justice decided she made the arrangement with her eyes open and would have to stand by it. lu an allidavit attached to her mo tion, Mrs. Ball says that in March, 1913, she engaged Mr. Severance to bring the stitt against Mr. Duke. He explained lo her. .she said, thal as she could not afford to pay him a re tainer, 50 per cent of what he could get from Duke would be a looper re ward. She sit -ed the agreement, hut received no copy of it. April S, 1914, according to the af fidavit, Duke settled for $7,500. of which she claims her attorney kept $.1,162.50, saying he had to pay ad ditional counsel $825. Mrs. Hail sets lortih that the addi tional counsel she inner saw, and knew him only as "my Jew friend," as Severance called him. Complaint Xever Piled. Mrs. Bail recites that before the settlement, Severance asked hoi" to sign an adi da vit in w h ich he had written that she had never had a cause of action and knew it when she brought the suit. This she refused to do. In the County Clerk's ofllee she learned her comida'.it had never boen filed. When (irossueld Broth ers demanded it. Severance refused to hand lt over. In his answer Severance says Mrs. Hail not only signed 'their agreement willingly, but gave him written per mission to pay tho extra counsel $825. He says tho lawyer belongs to a prominent linn, but does not name him. Severa nee .admits he refused 'to turn over to Mrs. Bail, or her attor neys, the complaint ho had never flied, because he believed she wished to "obtain facts upon which to ex ploit a prominent and wealthy man and not unnecessarily give notoriety to this proceeding."

Economical 4tolljugAtllon, A wit has indulged in a little con jugation practice to show the results Of a failure to pay debts, and of tho resift ls whim debts are paid. There is much more truth 'than poetry in what the man has to say Here is his production: I do not pay Thou dost not pay. Ile does not pay We have no money Von have no money NOBODY HAS MONEY. I have paid Thou hast paid Ile has paid You have paid We have paid EVERYBODY HAS MONEY. That is worth more lilian a passing thought. Start money In circula tion; allow the 'tenseness to relax, and at one dime or another nearly every ono will lay hands upon some of the circulating lucre Pay your own debts, and your debtors will pay you.
