Crime 'Books
The . number of crime books 'that
.are read and. the type of people who
read them are alwaysa surprise to
me.. Why, is it? What is the attrac-
tion? It is not only people who read
fiction without discrimination that
enjoy detective stories but some of
the keenest minds find their; relaxa-
tion in reading them,..,' Well everyone
to their taste, : It is not mine, I
read most' anything I can lay niy
hands on but. pass .up crime stories.
Itis only a case of sheer desperation
when I read them. ' All the time I am
reading them I am cross at myself
-for wasting time. But once started,
I' finish the book.
We all read as a mean of escape
from ourselves. Is it because the
.crime book, is such a contrast to the
well -ordered lives of most of their
readers, that they are so avidly read?
/ There certainly is some good reason
for their strong appeal.
What effect will these 'books have
on our young people? There are
• many of them, such . as spy stories
and othersof that like, that are ad-
venture stories and harmless, Then
there are others that are so obvious
ly impossible that they can have lit-
, tic effect. But what of the others?

rary, and out of that eight, six had

Whipped Cream Desserts
One of the nicest things about the
cold weather, is the fact that it helps
cream to whip. Any kind of cream,
not just whipping cream. When you
have to buy whipping cream it reales
the desserts rather expensive but tihe
cost is much lessened when ordinary
coffee cream can be whipped. :I make
a great many cream desserts but to
tell the truth I do not think I ever
use a recipe. I have ar look at what
is in the refrigerator, the cake +box,
and the cream bottle and make it ac-
cordingly.
Sometimes it is just a fruit whip.
That is preserves folded into whip-
ped cream,. We are specially fond of
Raspberry Whip. It is made very,
easily by whipping the' cream and

you before about the. use of them for
:work, Dr. Harcourt; l rofessor of
Chemistry at 0. A. C., emphasizes
the necessity of placing the fertilizer
within reach of the growing plant
and sleep enough in the soil • to be
affected by moisture. Surface appii-
cations,are condemned except where
land is drilled for roots, in which
case the fertilizer is brought into the
drill. On meadows and alfalfa the
fertilizer must necessarily be spread
on the surface,but where possible
the material should be put into the
soil and near but not in contact with
the seed, he advises.
Current ,Crop Report
Crop reports received from_Repre-

tunity of more exercise this winter

Alfalfa can be grown over a wide

Seeding down a field of alfalfa is eas-
ily equal to, a liberal application of
manure. Also because of its long,
thick roots, alfalfa is a splendid plant
for opening'. up heavy clay and also
for adding moisture -retaining humus
to light soils. Once established, it
will in a few -years smother out most
weeds. To derive most advantage
from this cheap fertilizer, it should
be followed with heavy feeding crops
such as corn, cabbage, potatoes,. or
any market garden truck. Where

advisable to sow at the rate of 12 to

a good planto inoculate the seed.

consistent notes of time, represents
the last supper as taking place the
clay before the passover, or on Thurs-
day the thirteenth of the month -Ni-
san, so that our Lord was crucified
on the afternoon of Friday, the four-
teenth of Nisan, at the very time the
paschal lambs were being slain, The
synoptic Gospels represent the last
supper as the paschal meal, and
Christ undoubtedly gave it that char-
acter, though it . was eaten twenty-
four hours before the regular pass-.
over feast. Jesus knowing that his
hour was come that he should depart
out of this world unto the Father.

death was fixed in the providence of
