Since plants take only

that can be used by the plants.
Of course, the yield of the crop

In many cases, and especially
on light soils, the weeder may be

after breaking. The better

before the young plants are
out of the ground, weed
and seed grass are getting ready
to come up with them. The
weeder dislodges these seed,
destroys them, and at the same
time helps the corn or cotton
seed to get through. Thus

expensive hand hoeing, if a side
plow had been used instead of

soils, a spike toothed harrow

than the weeder.
Probably the greatest caution
to observe in the use of these
implements it to run them at
the proper time. After the grass
forms a green carpet over the

weeder. The implement will
destroy some of the grass, but

intended for breaking land, but
for the the surface of

to be placed on the harrow to

Teach The Children How to do
Knowing how to do anything i
the secret of success. There
so many tired mothers in the
homes today dreaming of the
time when their daughters and
sons will be . up and
them, not realizing that now is
the time to be teaching the child
how to
every opportunity to
m in the belief that
that they are essential to the
happiness of the home while
they are little instead of making
them feel that they are in
way and can do nothing.
It requires patience and much
precious time to teach the child
any thing, but it is the only
source to independence. The
introduction of domestic science
and agriculture in our public
schools will do much, but the
foundation must be laid in
homes. Children always take
naturally to all kinds of work if
we begin to teach early
enough The trouble has been
that the mother in waiting for
them to get to
begin has lost most
time that can ever in the
lives of her children. Meantime
they have learned much that
was obj and formed
habits would never
known, had she led them gently
and wisely into lives of service.

Miles
Members of the Maryland
Academy of Sciences, after
study and much calculation,
have concluded that
comet will not be as brilliant as
is popularly supposed when it is
the earth. May
They argue that the
comet will have receded some
what from the sun so that it will
have begun its fading process,
and dawn ard twilight will inter-
with its brightness.
Dr John K Hooper, chairman
of the astronomical section, says
that the coma surrounding the
nucleus will appear large and
will be high enough in the
sky the last of May to
be above the low mist and smoke.
comet is now com
toward the earth and will
appear above the western
or very rapidly for
several days and then appear to
move more slowly in a southerly
direction, i April and the
early part of says Dr.
Hooper, the comet will appear to
move very slowly, and in the
last of May it will be visible in
this s. During this period,
says Dr. Hooper, the comet will
appear somewhat stationary.
A th present time, according
to Dr. Hooper, the comet is ob-
d the sun. behind which
it passed March at a
of miles from it- In
other words, he
the comet is at present
miles from the earth
The following prepared
by Dr. Hooper shows the
distances of the comet at
dates and the approximate
time of the visibility of the
comet both morning and even
