resolute look on the fuea of most of
them nnd the determined air which
characterised them that they felt that
something of f rave and weighty im
port was ahout to be done.
"Wall, it's tight o'clock," an
nounced Bill. "Sh'll e proceed to

"Well, then, fe'ch out the pris'tier
an' le' 's bear what he's pot tu say fer
himself," said Deacon Snyder.
"Thal'u the talk," f-a'nl Mr. Hal
comb. "Let's hear his ttorv, fu.-.t of
all."
"Yes, trot him out," chuckled tin
manthy, who waa aa interested specta
tor and listener. "Trot him l ight out
I'm jest achin' to sei yo do it."
Bill Green. 83 master of ceremonies,
unlocked tho dour of the milk-house.
"Come out d' that!" he culled out,
in "a tone that was meant to convey
terror to the. occupaa of the milk
house. Hearing it and watching the way in
which Bill f.wcl!ed up like a turkey
gobbler as he delivered bis order, Sa
raanthy chuckled all over
No reply camo from th- milk-house
and no persou emerged therefrom.
"P'r'aps he's nsleep yet," some one
in the crowd suggested. "Holler an'
wake him up, Bill."
Samanthy'u amusement increased.
Bill put his head in at the door very
cautiously and looked around the
room.
"He ain't here!" he cried iu dismay.
"He's gia us tho clip, fellers.as 6ure's
ye live!"
"I could ha' told ye that a'consider
able spell ogoef I'd felt liko it,"
chuckled fsamanthy from her post of
observation by the pautry window.
"He's gone, sure enough, Bill Green,
an' J reckon ye won't git yer clutches
on him right away, nuther."
The excited aud incredulous crowd
taade a rash for the door to soe for
themselves if Bill Green's statement
was truo. It hardly seemed possible
that their prisoner could have eluded
them after getting out of the inilk
laouee, to pay nothing of getting out of
it.
But an inspection of tho room satis
fled them that it was empty. The bird
bad flown.
"Who could have helped the oritter
to git away?" cried Bill, black with
rage and disappointment. "I tell ye
what, there's been some underhand
doin's su mm ere, an' nobody needn't
tell me there hain't. Ef we o'd only

Later in the day there was a litt'e
elab of arms between Saaianthy aa 1
'Bill Green.
"There'sa ci ;aer ia the fence," sai l
Hill, with a sarly, glowering look at
Sam.iathy. "Yes sitree, a gul-dtiraed

her when there was any ouo by to list fa i
to it. lie was ratuer toa.uui or.comuu;

"Oh, wa' n't y.v J thought ye

Si ivi'ithy, coolly. "Uatit doa t un. ',..

"Shaw, now, 1 want to kaow," said
Bill, at a bus for anything else to say.

Saaianthy, looking liill'ti svolleu nad

got 'em, bat tho best luediein' for 'em
is to lniud yer own bisutr;s tin' not f.ir l
wiih sutbiu' yc can't handle."
Bill turned away with what Va3
meant to represent lofty disdain ex
pressed on his black-aud-bluo feat
ures. Samanthy put on her snubonnf t and
ran over to Mr. Boone's.
Xnnnio met her at tho gale.
That young womau'a eye 3 were red
and swollen, and tho looked iu if the
had pas!cd a sleepless night.
"Oh, Saajanthy," cried Xannie, ba-
ginning to cry again, "they'll bau3
poor Dick, I know they will:"
"They'll hev to git him first, I kin
der reckon," said rjaiaau'ihy, with n
wink and a grin.
"Ob, Samauthy, what do yon mean?"
cried Xannie, eagerly. "Has anything
happened? Have they found anything
out?"
"Yes, they've found him out,"
chuckled Samauthy "out o' themilk
house!" "Oh! oh!" cried Xannie, all in a
quiver of excitement. "Has ho got
away from them."
'He has so." answered Samanthy.
"They thought they'd pot him where

Dick had no trouble in eluding those
who soii:,'it for him. It is not au nify
matter to i-aplare a man ia u wild.-r-ness

Ia all seetioiis of the country there
an many farms located from twenty
to forty miles from largo cities wher
it would not bo profitable to raise
1 1 uck. It is somewhat (lillieull to
l,u tv what should be raised iu order
to roaii to the must profit. Of course,
when such bii'ius are largo and have
-ro Itf ed prodt.ible crops it would bo
folly to make any radical cliauge, but
the raii-donn farm is tho one on which
the pioidem of a living, to say nothing
of m -t profit, is most difficult to solve.
Many such farms might bo brought to
ti hR'h state of cultivutiou and yield a

and pet haps a few sheep wero kept,

It is so much v.a,ie time, lor r.l) the
labor will be iiee.L-d t ) do tho plow

to the need of the pbiiuswill i:ei:trid:y
give better results thau ttaulci man
uie. Celery, beets, cabbage, aspara
gus au 1 spinach f-Loald bo fei tilize,!
with baruyard mauuro as far us pos
sible with tho supply on baud. It
does not poy to purchase this at heavy
expense, however, for the same ingre
dients can, as a rule, ho obtained
cheaper iu some iorui of oommereial
fertilizer.
Oa old gardens that have been fer
tilized heavily with narnyui'd manures
a dressing of wood asties aud lime
may give better result thau anything
else. Too much heavy fertilizing with
barnyard manures is not good for tho
boil, aud it is well to skip a yeuroccu.
sionally, and dress the laud .simply
with lime or wood ashes or both. The
mistake ef owr-lortUizi'ig should be
iiveided. One mig it in tld.s way save
several dollars iu a season to the
aeie, which would go n long way
tow ark making the soitf ju'b work a
prolitublo oue.
In advising the use oi commercial
fertilizers, it should be undi rstood
that those made at homo give better
results usually than the batight n ix
tiirts. There are reliable brands of
tho latter in tho m.nkit, but the
farmer can mix just as good fur his
particular uso at less cost. P, ta-h and
the phosphates must bo ud led to tlio
soil iu so no form, and the el.e aot-r wo
can get this 1ho belter, t-o ..itiuus
there arci plenty of both iu th soil,

The lime id also kill bacteria ia the

Ina general way it may be said that
