A TRIO OF ENCHANTING PERFUM Nrgbt legumes May Be Fed During Hay Shortage Prompt action to overcome the prospective bay shortage due to the severe winter kill and this May drouth is beiDg urged upon Frank- Jin county farmers by C. W. Rad- way of the farm office. From reports coming to his office the in- dications point to an acute short* age in timothy and clover. New seedtngs are from 90 to 100 per cent killed and old meadows do pot promise more than a short crop Pointing out several ways in which this shortage can be over- come, Mr, Radveay recommends a combination of peas and oats cut while green as an excellent substi- tute for timothy or clover hay. His formula is to sow two bushels of oats and one bushel of peas, or two and a half bushels of oats, a half bushel of peas, with a peck of vetch'seed optional in the last mixture. This makes a fodder of high protein content. The peas and the vetch should both be in- nocujated, the same culture serv- ing for both. The northern farmer oan still consider soy beans after it becomes too late to sow the oat-pea mixture Mr, Radway says. This crop ateo makes a good hay of high protein content and it is well relished by cattle, The soybean is a poor weed fighter and for that reason many put the bean in rows and cultivate it. to keep pace with the racing hours! No one dress is correct for all occasions. Nor is any one fragrance!... The clever wo- man of today chooses her perfumes «s she chooses her costuj&es—to express the spirit of the hour! It is for her that the makers of OUTDOOR GIRL have created three enchanting new odors, scientifically blended to match the three major moods of the day. \DAWN\ is the scent-harmony of early morning... a veritable bouquet of Spring it- self, coaxed from the rarest flowers. \NOON\ complements the spirit of sports... a biythe fragrance, slightly more pronounced in odor. \NIGHT\ breathes the magic and mystery of star-studded skies... a seductive extract in perfect key with the feminine mood of romance.

HISTORICAL RELICS NOT UNCOMMON HERE In the June 4th, 1914 issue of The Sun appeared an article re- garding the uncovering of old relics in this town tending to throw some light on early Fort Covington history which might be of interest to many readers. Apparently there was consider- able excavation work being done on the Dundee road at the time and a somewhat misleading ru- mor was current that many well preserved relics were being unearthed. In part the article reads: There has been a few pieces of Indian ware found, but such relics are not uncommon all ove: this north country. The sup- posed bones of veterans were nothing more than those of a poodle dog, laid to rest in a soap box, according to conclusions reached when its jaw bone was examined, Actual relics of the war of 1812 were found in abundance a few years ago when excavations were being made under the Presbyterian church, and at the present time one can easily trace the location of tents or huts that were in use when the southern soldiers camped during the win- ter on what is now Herrick's lane, Farlinger's pasture and Parker's woods, In fact, all through that section adjacent to the Presbyterian church may be found evidences of the poor fel- Hunter, a junior, Fort Coving-: * ort umngiou. usu wi u j a ton, who received a wrist watch, ! weakening of the Bombay pitch- naval order of the United States [ er's arm, staged a rally and m prizes in world history of t h e j the last stages of the g a-ro-e present day.
