There was but one difference between them; Tommy Vose did not see very well, and Will Barnes was rather bard of hearâ€" ing. Tommy, therefore, was the first to apprise Will that it was leavingâ€"offâ€" time. Out in the wide beachâ€"bordered avemue a couple of very old men were alowly and painfully hoeing the intruâ€" sive grass which bhad overspread its gravelled surface. They wore clogs, corduroy trousers tied below the knee with string, and brown _ cardigan jackets a good deal frayed and faded. Both had blue eyes, grey fringes of whisker, and complexions of a brownâ€" ishâ€"yellow tinge, which, added to a cerâ€" tain stolidity of expression, caused their faces to look as though they were carved in wood; both wore fur caps a trifle mangey, well pulled down over the ears.

It is very important, therefore, that winter wheat growers take every availabie means to secure those varieties which are iikely to give the best results.
