looked as picturesque as ducked hen.
"You may thank your lune for your
salvation remarked Jim, turning to
the fair but dilapidated Sadie.
II never see a woman yit that I
thought more Of than do of my indi-
vidual self, and if Tom hadn't shamed
me out and made me go expect he'd
a. went alone, and you'd a. both gone
to Davy jones'" and the rough old fish
erman inverted a rubber boot that he
had removed for the purpose of drain
ing off the water which was stopping
about in it.
The girl made no reply, but from UNI
| der dripping locks she beamed upon
Tom smile, the most heartsome and
approving which he had ever received.
In answer to inquiries Sadie explained
how that when midway between the two
islands q rowlock had become detached
and had fallen overheard, rendering the
oars useless, and being overtaken by the
squall, she had drifted until discovered
and rescued.
Sadie found shelter with some friends
who lived in Put-in-Bay until the next
morning, when, the gale having died,
she was restored to her anxious parents
| by Tom Taylor in person. She was not
much worse for the wetting and scare
received, but was appropriately subdued
in manner, meeting Tom with uniform
kindness and evidently regarding him
as hero.
Old Hank received him with ELUSIVE
demonstration and insisted upon his re-
manning for the day as an honored guest,
placing before him in the way of enter,
tainment the best that his larder afford
ed. Sadie behaved beautifully. and it
will hardly be necessary to tell of all the
little flirtations successfully prosecuted
by the young couple during that brief
day.
In the evening, as Tom was about TAX
ing his departure, his host clapped him
on the shoulder and said
Young ...:., K II .s.s.,s been for you
my girl wud a. been drifting down Lake
Erie a dead corpse instead of a-settin
here. You've saved her life, and now
don't know how to pay you for the trou-
BILE unless you're willin to take her"
A wave Of scarlet suddenly overswept
Toms face, extending clear to the roots
of his red hair, while the girl looked the
picture of confusion. why, dadiM
After a mighty effort Tom succeeded
in partially regaining his self possession
and after clearing his throat said if the
old man was ''willin" and the girl was
"willin," he guessed he'd "call it square
and the girl nodded and the old man
said, ''All right" and promised to throw
in the boat as part of the bargain. So
before the ice fields blocked the island
passages there was wedding on Rattle
snake, and in triumph Tom bore away
his bride.
One by one Hank Hammond was
robbed of his daughters, and he eventu-
ally left the island himself.
Another "Swiss Family Robinson
who succeeded him now occupies his
place.
Tom Taylor multiplied and increased
as the years swept on and now rejoices
in not only an ample share OF worldly
e1nolaments. but also big end bloola-

STATE STATISTICS.

The average yield Of corn per acre IN
Massachusetts in the year 1891 was
forty bushels. In Maine it was thirty
eight and in Vermont more than thirty
seven, while the granite hills of New
Hampshire, where the land is reported
too poor to raise a disturbance on,
yielded more than thirty-fiye bushels to
the acre, which was greater average
than that obtained by any etate in the
union except Nebraska and Iowa. al
though California was but a fraction be-
hind New Hampshire. In the produc-
tion Of potatoes the leadership of the
old and naturally sterile states is quite
rs great Maine leads all other states
in the number Of bushels of potatoes
produced to the acre, and is the equa
of any other state IN their quality.
We quote these figures from recent
issue OF the Youths Companion for two
reasons. In the first place we feel i'm
pressed to express our dissent from ths
conclusions drawn, SO far as they come
in controversy with our own state o
Montana's agricultural product. Il
spite of the absence of the necessar,
statistics to give comprehensive view
of our own product, we feel certain tina

competition with the results obtained
from the virgin northwest. 1t is per-
fectiy easy, Of course, to obtain isolated
returns from different individuals and
different localit,as which dwarf into
inaignificanoe the figures given by the
magazine in question. But such re-
turns, while magnificent enough by Them
selves, viii not enable ne to satisfactorily
Erefute the contention in favor OF down
east. That is not us it should be, and
the deficiency is not limited simply to
our own agricultural interests. Look
ing, US we are, for the influx OF the
necessary capital and labor to develop
to their utmostthe nnequalled resources
Of our state, it is difficult to conceive Of
an investment that would render better
returns to Montana at large and enter
prising individuals in particular than
set OF thoroughly reliable statistics, do
voted to our immense and growing IN
terests.
Here is another matter, then, to which
the next session of the legislature
might protitably devote some share OF
its attention. 1t is Of little consequence
how the result is attained, SO long as we
get there. The compilation may be en-
trusted to the care Of a bureau Of sta
tistios, or it may become one Of the
most important duties of an immigra-
tion bureau. All the figures at the
public service are moro or less unrelia-
bic, and, what is worse, are far below
the mark. Our mineral output is, in
actual fact, a matter OF guess work.
Our lumber interests no one
can satisfactorily attempt to figure out.
1t is the same with our agricultural pro-
ducts -Four counties out Of sixteen
are good enough to make a return OF
their hay crop. One authority sets
down the total value OF the states hay
production for the year at $4,000, and a
Helena dealer alone has bought from a
limited portion of the state in this i'm
mediate vicinity not less than $4,000
worth. Tt is simply impossible that we
can occupy the place we deserve in the
for capital and labor, if this
chaotic state Of affairs is allowed to
continue. If we are to rise to the top
Of the tree and that is the place whore
every Montanian wants to see his state

rate compilation OF the kind we have
