She waited until the next morn- ing to tell him. “Martin, I may not be coming back."

He stared at her incredulously. “Not coming back. What do you mean, Susie?" _ 1 She stood with one hand holding on to the sofa for support. Her knees were trembling. "When I was looking for your engagement book yesterday—to try and find out where you were-I found e letter to you from Fenella Dering. I didn't mean to see it, but lt—- juat happened."

"A letter... He stammered and hia face reddened. He stood with one arm resting on the mantle-

She tried to kee calm. "Pr-r- haps, then, you wil tell me uboul it yourself. If you and Fenellu are in love with each other, you'd bet- ter aa so. I can't go on like this. All th s lying and deceit-I can't go on with it any longer." He stared at her angrily, “What do you want me to tell you?"

Some Weed Killing Mystery Linked With

It is a. mystery to manv People why it ls possible to kill one plant writ-la a chemical spray and not kill another beside it. In some cases, the rcuiscn is still a mystery even lo those who have given the sub- ject careful study. In other cases, the answer is simple. says George Knowles, Field Husbandry Division,

Central Experimental Farm. 0t- awn. .. The first evidence of selective

weed killing was observed when mustard growing in a grain crop was killed by ropper sulphate spray which did not kll the grain. The spray burned the lenves of the grain and the crop looked deed for about one week. Then the grain commenced to turn green again. but the mustard made no further

BITTER PARTING '

Susan walked about (he room in e state of agitation, wondering if she had remembered to pack everything. It was nearly t e to start for the boat. She cou d not believe that she might never be coming back. and: of course. she was leaving behind a great many of her possessions.

She put on her list in front of the glass with s feeling of dumb resignation. If_she never came back. then Martin would have to pack up her things and send them on after her, or bring them back with him when he returned to England. She wondered how Mar- tin would get on in the bungalow without her. Somehow she could not imagine hlm li-ving here all alone, looking after all the house- hold nrrangements, managing the servants.

Martin was in the passage when she went out. His manner was ox- pressionless and formal. “I'll got the car out and drive you down to the quay. It's tlrne we were oil." He came into the bungalow to fetch the suitcases and slowed them away In the car. They drove together in silence to the quay. The great blank and brown bulk of the P. and O. loomed above them. Martin walked with her up

growl-h. The explanation of the re- covery of the grails is l; the growing tip of the plants of the grass family (and this includes oats. wheat, barley and rye), is enclosed in a sheath or covering and the caustic copper sulphate spray could not touch this covered growing point of the grain. In a. few days the iuilniured shoots emerged and soon the field was as green as if nothing had happened. The grow- ing point of the mustard plant. lwwe-vcr. is open and exposed. Then too the leaves of this weed are waxy and covered with short hairs which holds ample spray that soon burns the life out of all parts of the plant.

Most annual weeds can be killed in eat and in flax by Sinox. This is hetrade name for is recently introduced chemical weed killer. It is thought that the reason for this is because leavs of peas and flax are waxy but without hairs and the spray runs off them like water off s cabbage leaf. The weeds that have not a. waxy surface are killed

Another cxalnple of selective weed killing is the spraying of car- rots with oil. The oil wels the leaves of the carrots just as lt wets the leaves of the weeds. but for some unknown reason the oil kills most of the annual weeds and does not kill the carrots.
