Henry almost forgot his trouble, but the 
rain brought it back to him. 
“We can't afford any such dinner as 
this if the rain keeps up; think of all 
that clover so tangled we can't cut it.” 
“Well, Henry,” said Kate, “if I was in 
your place I’d buy those pigs of Neighbor 
Henson and turn them right in to eat that 
clover.” 
“lluh! Peed that clover to hogs! A 
lot a woman knows about farming!” 
In Hie Fall I went back for a week 
to help husk corn. The boss and I were 
husking in a field just back of the house 
one sunny afternoon. 
“How did the season turn out? I 
asked. 
“Fine! ’Way ahead of what I ex¬ 
pected. You know how black that hay 
was? Well, the cows cat it like candy. 
Those hogs I bought of Benson paid 
great. They cleaned up that clover and 
I plowed it for wheat. Nothing better 
in this township. The wet weather gave 
us a big fruit crop, and prices are good. 
Oh. 1 claim to be a good planner and a 
good farmer.” , 
The kitchen door was open, and there 
came to us through the dreamy haze of 
an October afternoon a clear, kindly 
voice : 
“Oil! Canaan, bright Canaan, 
I'm hound for the land of Canaan; 
Canaan, ’tis my happy home. 
I'm bound for the land of Canaan! 
And I certainly think she was. 
The growl of the thunder dies away; 
that cloud is going to tile west of e 
shall get the hay in, after all. There 
will not be much vain. Tim wet land 
will respond wlieD tho sun finally roaches 
US What apples it will make! There s 
old Broker nodding his head as he rests 
beneath that tree. If he only had the 
voice he’d sing. I know. n.w. C. 
See Its Wonderful 
New Motor 
The new Super-Six motor is a revelation 
even to Hudson owners. 
It brings, we believe, the most vital 
advancements made by any car in recent 
years. Every phase of motor operation 
is affected. You will note especially the 
smoother, more easeful way the new 
Hudson does the things you require of it. 
No words can convey its charm. You 
must take a ride to discover its wonder¬ 
ful difference. Your dealer will gladly 
arrange to take you for a drive.

Notes on the Cortland Appie 
We have not tested the Cortland apple. 
From what we know of it, however, it 
does uot seem that it can take the place 
of a Baldwin, but is more like a McIn¬ 
tosh. to be used for a table apple as well 
as for cooking. It will have the advan¬ 
tage of lengthening the season of the Mc¬ 
Intosh. We are plauniug to set some 
when we can get the trees.

All I know about the Cortland apple 
is the reports from Geneva, and those 
who have tasted and seen the fruit. It 
is ranked as the best new apple ever in¬ 
troduced. and these reports, coming from 
the men they do, mean more than if they 
had come from a nurseryman who was 
selling trees. CLARK allis.

I planted the new varieties of apples 
sent out by the New York Experiment 
Station, and no doubt Cortland was 
among the number, hut. unfortunately, 
my map of the trees became lost, so that 
I ’could not identify the different varieties. 
However, most of the trees have borne, 
and I have yet to find one variety that 
I would care to plant again. Ail of them 
i,ore undersized apples from the start. 
It is my opinion that we have too many 
varieties of apples already, and 1 doubt 
if this generation will ever see two better 
kinds than the Baldwin and Rhode Island 
Greening. I am speaking, of course, for 
New York State. tv. a. rassett.

Some farmers continue to raise wheat at little or no profit, 
because a stand of clover can be secured in it if it is rightly 
fertilized. No crop responds better to POTASH FERTILIZA¬ 
TION than clover. For wheat to be seeded to clover insist on 
having a fertilizer containing 
6 to 8 % POTASH 
and you will have a profitable clover crop, as well as a better 
wheat crop. In this as well as in other ways
