Fall Flowing.

Fail FlOwing.
One trouble with fall plowing Is the
careless way in which it is done. Often
times the land is simply plowed in a
careless manner with the thought in
mind that it can be finished in the
spring if 1t is to lie fa1low. Some
times the plowing is no more perfect
when winter wheat and rye is to be
raised. The ground should be as care
fully plowed and prepared for grain
sown in the winter as for that sown
In the spring. AS a rule five or six
inches is a most satisfactory depth to
plow in the fall, although, of course,
it depends somewhat on the character
of the soil. If the ground is intended
for fall seeding, it must be handled in
accordance with it's character. If in
clined to he loose, the harrow and roller
should be used until it is well compact
ed. If the soil is naturally heavy, 1t
should be loosened up just before seed
ing, by straight tooth harrow, and
if rain should come in a few days after
the seed is sown, it always pays to go
over the entire plot and loosen up the
soil by light narrowing.

l had been there. Now 1 was alone in
them with Olivia, no other human being
in sight or sound Of us. I had scarcely
eyes for any sight but that of her face,
which had grown shy and downcast, and
was generally turned away from me. She
would be frightened, thought, if l spoke
to her in that lonesome place. l would
wait till we were on the cliffs, in the

She left my side for one moment whilst
l was poking under stone for young

l heard her utter an exclamation of de-
light, and l gave up my pursuit instant

She was STOPPING down to look beneath a
low arch, not more than two feet high,
and l knelt beside her. Beyond lay a
straight, narrow channel of transparent
water, blue from a faint reflected light,
with smooth sculptured walls Of rock,
clear from mollusca, rising on each side
of it. Level lines Of mimic waves rip
pied monotonously upon it, as if it was
stirred by some soft wind Ihhich we could
not feel. You could have peopled it with
tiny boats fitting across it, or skimming
lightly down it. Tears shone in Olivia s
eyes.
''It reminds me so of canal in Ven

''Do you know Venice" l asked; and

Florence came to my mind.

A HARD MAN TO KILL.
Whale Hunts His Hunters and Terribly
Injuries One of Them

Whale Hunts His Hunters and Terribly
Injuries One of Them.
Accounts of whaling voyages often
convey the idea of a very agreeable
pastime, but sometimes, as in the case
of the historic tiger, the whale takes it
into his head to hunt you; then look out
for trouble. Mr.. Bullen gives, in 'The
Men of the Merchant Service" a de-
scription of the experiences of Captain
Gardiner of the ship Union, which re-
suited somewhat disastrously for the
the fearless mariner.
While he was in pursuit Of his calling
off the west coast of South America
sperm whale flung it's jaw upward
across the boat, and caught him by the
head and shoulders. The blow did not
sweep him overheard, but laid his scalp
back from the skull, broke his right
jaw, tearing out five teeth, broke his
left arm and shoulder-blade and crush
ed the hand on the same side between
the whales jaw and the gunwale Of the
boat
In this deplorable state he was car
ried on board his ship, and his young
officers may well have been excused
for considering his case hopeless. His
brave spirit, however, did not recognize
a defeat. He gave directions, mostly by
signs. for the preparation of bandages
and splints, and instructed his willing
but ignorant helpers In the way of u.s.
ing them.
When all had been done that he wish
ed or could think of, he ordered the ves-
sci to be taken into port, and although
apparently at the point of death, he lay
| in commanding position and piloted
the ship. A Spanish surgeon was
brought on board, who, as soon as he
saw the sufferer, advised sending for
| priest, as the case was hopeless.
This advice was lost upon the valiant
Yankee, who sent messenger thirty
miles for another doctor-a German.
This gentleman FASTENED down to the
ship, dressed the shippers wounds, and
had him transported on an improvised
ambulance slung between two mules
| up to the healthy highlands of the in
terror. In six months he was fit to re
sumo command Of his ship, which
meanwhile had made most successful
cruise under the mate.
The captains left hand, unhappily
had been SO badly mangled that it was
hardly more than stump, the first two
fingers being so twisted in the palm
that he was afterward always obliged
to wear a thick mitten to keep him
from being entangled in a lance warp
while he was lancing a whale.
This good man was for quarter of q
century master Of a whaler, and lived
to be nearly ninety years old.

the habit of using. The experiments
of feeding the whole wheat show that
often as much as one-quarter of it
passes through the animal without be-
ing digested, and when the wheat was
ground or crushed 1t was but an In

Fertilizers for Small Fruits.
Undoubtedly the judicious use of
commercial fertilizers is beneficial to
small fruit plants, but it must be ap-
piled intelligently. especially if worked
with stable manure. to gain the great
est value. A first-class general fertiliz-
er for all small fruit plants is a mix
ture of either sulphate or muriate of
potash, 200 pounds with 500 pounds of
dissolved phosphate rock. 1t may be
applied broadcast or with a drill, the
quantity named being sufficient for an
acre. This mixture should be applied
this fall, and can be used by the plants
in time to benefit the crop next sum-
mer. This mixture should be applied
derstood that the mixture named is for
general use. Some other mixtures will
do better for some plants, and what
| will do best can be determined by ex-
perimenting, but until the fruit-grow-
| er learns just what mixture gives him
| the best results, he will make no mis-
| take by using the one here advocated.

We had wandered back to the opening
where Tardif had left us. The rapid cur
rent between us and Breckhou was run
ming in swift eddies. Olivia stood near
me; but a sort of chilly diffidence had
crept over me, and 1 could not have ven
tured to press too closely to her, or to
touch her with my hand.
sHow have you been content to live
here?'' 1 asked.
''This year in Sark has saved me-" she
answered softly.
"What has it saved you from ~. l In
quired, with intense eagerness. She turn
ed her face full upon me, with world
of reproach in her grey eyes.
''Dr. Martini" she said, why will you
persist in asking me about my former
life? Tardif never does. He never im-
plies by word or look that he wishes to
know more than 1 choose to tell. l can
not tell you anything about it.
Just then my ear caught for the first
time low boom boom, which had proba-
bly, been sounding through the caves for
some minutes.
"Good heavensr' l calculated.
Yet a moments thought convinced me
that, though there might be little risk,
there was no paralyzing danger. l had
| forgotten the narrowness of the gulley
through which alone we could gain the
| cliffs. From the open span of beach
where we were new standing, there was
no chance of leaving the caves except as
we had come to them, by boat; for on
each side a crag ran like a spur into
/ the water. There was not moment to
lose. Without word, 1 snatched up
/ Olivia in my arms, and ran back into
the caves, making as rapidly as I could
| for the long, straight passage.
Neither did Olivia speak a word OF
utter cry. We found ourselves in q
