BACK TO HIS IDEAL

Br R. RAY BAKER

(©, ISIO, by McClure Newspaper Syndicate.) The three years’ war was over and Leonard Moore was going home. The war In question had nothing to do with England, France or Germany. It was a private family war —between Leonard Moore and J. Griffen Moore. Perhaps it had better be termed, a rupture In relations, for no shots were fired. In his hand Leonard held the terms of peace. They were contained in a letter from J. Griffen Moore, who happened to be his father. The situation was summed up in the closing paragraph of the letter: “So the doors of the old home 'hre open to you. I learn from reliable sources that you have settled down and made good as an automobile salesman. It has been a trying three years for me, all alone* in the big house except for the servants, but I believe it has done us both good, and we will understand each other better when you return. There is only one obligation I will place you under; that is that you marry at once, and of course it must be some one in your own class. Mazie Dixon would suit me, and you used to appear extremely fond of her. Hl look for you shortly.” It was the first communication from his father since the latter sent him but into the world to shift for himself three years ago. It was after Leonard’s second expulsion from college that the break occurred.

Leonard had steadfastly refused to shoulder any responsibility in life, had never been vicious, but had traveled with a clique that was not noted for its thrifty propensities or its mild forms of amusement; had openly defied hard and fast regulations of the school and had ended his career there with an extemporaneous valedictory address delivered in the presence of the faculty when the latter summoned him before it and which was far from being a eulogy. The summons had resulted from a series of misdemeanors which had come to the faculty’s attention, but when the faculty tried to express its opinion as to the merit of Leonard’s sundry escapades the latter usurped the stage and expressed his Ideas concerning the faculty, collectively and individually. He went home by the next train; bag and baggage. When J. Griffen Moore shut the door of his magnificent home that nlgiit Leonard was on the outside with SSOO in his pocket with which to “try to make something of yourself.” It woke Leonard up and, taking an Inventory of himself, he decided it was high time to assume a different attitude toward life. Heretofore he had been Irresponsible, because his father was wealthy and he was the only heir; consequently there had been no occasion to shoulder responsibility. Now, of a sudden, there was plenty of occasion. He had been disowned by his parent, and his reasoning faculties told him J. Griffen Moore was right. So he went to work. Three years later found Leonard a successful salesman, rooming at a piace where other young business men and women made their homes. He had responsibilities, and he was glad of It

Not once had he implored aid of his father. He was proud of himself, but not too proud to go back home when invited. Leonard had no particular liking for hard work, and he knew his father would get him a position where that kind of activity played a minor role. He had worked hard, but because he had to. His heart filled with exultation, which showed in his eyes, he left his room and walked down the hall, pausing before a door, on he knocked. It was opened by a pretty brunette, rather diminutive, attractive, intelligent young woman, who smiled him welcome and invited him to a chair. “It’s come, Minnie,” he announced gleefully. “Father has relented, afid I’m to go home. The world is rosy once more.” She walked to the window and looked out. The smile disappeared from her face when her back was turned to him. "Tell me about It,” she said. ' He did. There was no reason why he shouldn’t, because Minnie had been his confidante ever since he came to room here. They had been great friends —nothing more than that—-and had spent many an evening together, discussing their hopes and ambitions. Minnie edited the woman’s page on one of the newspapers, but had an intense yearning to become appellee reporter. They don’t have women police reporters,” she said, “but I don’t understand why, seeing that they have women policemen. Anyhow, I want to be one. I’m tired of fashions and divorces and marriages,and other heart throbs of the feminine world. I’d like to handle murders.” So Leonard told her how the rupture In relations was about to terminate and suggested they go outto dinner In celebration of the event, because on the morrow he would return home. But she insisted that they simply have one of their "chatty seances,” as she expressed It “I suppose before long you will be married,” she observed, “to one of your former sweethearts?” Thia extracted • sigh from Leonard.

THE EVENING REPUBLICAN. RENSSELAER. IND.

“Yes, I suppose I will.- At least 1 hope to. Mazie Dixon always was my ideal. She’s the most wonderful girl I ever met —a pronounced blonde with blue eyes—and she certainly would make me happy. I have always been insane over her, but of course when I left home I was obliged to give her up. Now it will be different.” He gave vent to another sigh, which was echoed by Minnie, no doubt out of sympathy for him, although there appeared to be little occasion for sympathy. In the morning Leonard severed his connection with the auto sales company. The manager was not at all pleased, because Leonard had been a valuable man; but he was told that a place would be open for him any time he might care to return. Then Leonard went to his father’s office, where an affectionate greeting' took place, and that night Leonard was formally welcomed hack into the old home with a dinner party, at which young ladies and young gentlemen of “his class” were guests. Among the guests was Mazie, and her greeting was effusive. “I’ve missed vou > lot" sbe said. “It would seem that you might have dropped me a line now and then.” “I was in no position to consider you as a —a friend,” he reminded her. “I was just a poor working man. It would not have been the right thing, exactly.” “Perhaps you are right,” she agreed. “But now we are back on the-..same level once more, and I shall expect you to make up for lost time and take me to all the best parties and dances and theaters.” While this conversation was taking place Minnie sat alone in her room pounding a dilapidated typewriter, trying to grind out material for her page. Leonard did not know that she had laid aside this work on more than one occasion in order to receive him and that it made the performance of her duties the next day doubly hard. On this particular night the rickety machine would not run smoothly. Sheet after sheet of paper was torn up and finally Minnie admitted defeat, covered the typewriter, turned out the Rights and moved her chair to the window, where she spent a silent hour, meditating. It was only a sample of her program on several succeeding nights. A month after Leonard’s exit from her life she sat thus at ,the window, lamenting the flight of inspiration, when a knock on the door intruded on her thoughts. She exclaimed, wearily, “Come in,” thinking perhaps it was the bothersome Miss Jenkins on a borrowing quest for the current magazines, or Mrs. Shear seeking a cupful of sugar, or Miss Haverhill with the latest gossip. Instead a man stood at the opening when the door was thrown back. As the light was out she could not /ee who it was, but she could discern that he carried two suitcases. She pressed the electric switch and the light shone on the face of Leonard Moore. “Back?” she exclaimed. “Did your father change his mind?” “No,” he said grimly, setting the suitcases in the hall and entering the room. “No, he didn’t change his mind —but I did. Minnie, my three years of work have spoiled me for a life of leisure. Dad and I are on friendly terms all right, but I’m going to take my job back.” She motioned him to a chair, but he remained standing. “How about your Ideal?” she inquired. “Why aren’t you with her tonight?” , He walked up close to her, his face carrying an expression she had never seen before. “Minnie,” he said, and there was a peculiar softness in his voice, “Mazie Dixon isn’t my ideal; she belongs to the Leonard Moore who used to be and who didn’t know any better. You ask me why I am not with my Ideal tonight and I answer that I am with her. I’ve been living three years under the same roof with her and I have Just found it out.”

Assert Ruin Was Chiefs Home.

Casa Grande ruin. Arizona, is claimed by the Pima Indians who dwell in its neighborhood as the habitation of one of their ancient chiefs. They designate it by several names, ajnong which are Vaaki, Old House; Clvanavaakl, Old House of the Chief; and Slallm Clvanavaakl. Old House of Chief Morning Green. Casa Grande was a ruin when discovered and has not been permanently inhabited since first seen by white man. The walls of this historic structure are of a fawn color, slightly tinged with red. Externally they are rough, but Internally are plastered and still showing places that formerly were as smooth aF “Pueblo pottery.”

Center of Population Moving.

How many of us can telr’off-hand the exact center of the population of the United States? Every ten years the government calculates with great accuracy Just where this point Ues. The center moves westward at the rate of about fifty miles every ten years. When the center was first calculated in 1790 it lay three miles east of Baltimore, Md. In the first ten years it moved forty miles westward. By 1860 it had reached the State of Ohio and is today crawling slowly across Jhe State of Indiana; In 130 years, says Boys’ Life, the point has traveled westward about 600 miles.

HOME ORCHARD PLANTATION SHOULD HAVE SEVERAL DIFFERENT VARIETIES OF FRUIT

A Few Peaches, Pears, Apples, Plums and Cherries Will Vary the Product In an Agreeable Way.

(Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture) In many sections of Florida and California the housewife needs only to step outside of her kitchen door to gather the grapefruit for breakfast or the oranges for dinner. This cannot be done everywhere, but there is no reason why any rural or suburban housewife, even if she lives close to the Canadian border, should not have fruit of some kind growing in the back yard. This is the opinion of specialists in the United States department of agriculture, who treat in detail the subject of “Growing Fruit for Home Use” in a publication under that name. It is Farmer’s Bulletin 1001 and may be obtained on application to the division of publications, U. S. department of agriculture, Washington, D. C. The ideal fruit garden or home orchard should contain several different kinds of fruits, represented In many cases by a considerable number of varieties ripening one after another over a long period. Large yields, good shipping quality and attractiveness in appearance, which are aims of the commercial grower, may be made secondary to high dessert quality or special excellence f</r cooking purposes. Plans for Home-Orchard. The home fruit plat should be planned carefully, and in general with a view to supplying fruit continuously throughout the year either in the fresh state or canned or otherwise conserved. Throughout a large part of the country one may grow in the same garden, if he so desires, the following fruits: Apples, pears, peaches, plums, cherries, quinces, strawberries, raspberries, blackberries, dewberries, currants, gooseberries and grapes. In the colder sections the winters are too severe for peaches and also for some of the other fruits nanlted, unless they are protected; while in the warmer parts apples, currants, gooseberries and certain varieties of several of the other fruits fail because they are not adapted to the long, hot summers and mild winters. But in these warmer regions Japanese persimmons succeed, and in some of them figs and certain other fruits can be planted successfully. Therefore one of the most important features of the plan for the home-fruit plantation is the selection

of kinds of fruits and varieties of those kinds which do well in the given locality and which will serve best the purpose for which they are desired. The location of the land on which the fruits are planted, other things b&ing equal, should be convenient to the house. It should be well drained, since fruit trees cannot thrive in poorly drained soil. The air drainage also must be good. Cold air settles to the lowest levels, and If a site is so located that cold air settles over it from some surrounding higher elevation, the fruit may be injured by freezes in the autumn when sites located on the sides of slopes or at points which are higher than the surrounding area escape Injury. ~ Most fruits can be grown $n a great variety of soils, but where possible it Is better to avoid light sandy soils and heavy days. A deep subsoil, which is friable and porous enough to permit a ready penetration of the roots and a

free movement or soil moisture, is desirable. Good nursery stock of suitable kinds and varieties is fundamental to success in fruit growing. While many of the long-established nurseries sell their stock largely through agents whose Interglty is unquestioned many other nurseries have no traveling agents but sell direct to purchasers. It Is better, as a rule,-for a grower to deal directly with a nurseryman rather than through an agent. When to Plant Fruit Trees. In the North and wherever the winter conditions are severe on plant life, either from low temperatures, drying winds or other causes, fruits are usually planted in the spring as early as the soil can be put in suitable condition. It is very Important that they be set out while the plants are perfectly dormant and before the buds have started. Many failures result from delaying the planting until the buds have started into growth. If the prospective planter prepares the soil where his fruits are to stand as thoroughly as he should prepay his garden before planting vegetable seeds, the subsequent growth of his fruit trees will amply repay him. Where the site selected Is In sod it is advisable to cultivate it during one season at least after the sod Is plowed under, in order that the grass roots may decay before the fruits are planted. Where the fruit plantation occupies a garden site usually it should receive about the same tillage that Is given a vegetable plat. In the popular mind this represents a high standard of excellence. Frequent tillage to maintain the surface soil In the condition of a fine dust mulch, In most cases to any other method of treatment. The tillage of fruit trees should be continued until midsummer in the North, but it may be kept up to good advantage somewhat later in the South. Strawberries, as a rule, should be cultivated until the approach of cold weather.

Under most conditions the same methods of maintaining the fertility of the soli which are followed In a vegetable garden are successful with fruits. Where stable manure Is available Its liberal use generally gives excellent results. The three kinds of Insect pests and fungous diseases that are found in a commercial orchard In any region may be expected to occur In a fruit garden or home orchard located in the same region. Therefore, In planning a home-fruit plantation the grower should Inform himself as completely as is possible in regard to the methods of confrolling the common Insects and diseases to which the fruits he is growing are subject in his locality. This information may be found in bulletins issued by state experiment stations, agricultural college extension divisions, the United States department of agriculture and elsewhere. The bulletin, which discusses these points at length, also gives attention to other problems that will confront the amateur fruit grower/buch as seasons of planting, handling the stock from the nursery, planting, cultural methods, maintaining soli fertility, pruning and training, irrigation, varieties of fruit for different regions, fruit varieties, age of bearing and varieties for different districts.
