shoulders for him TO be coming in the
door, and he would never be coming in
the door again. What would become
of them? q God, what would become
Of them? He gave great sob, sob
of pity for them and for himself, and
in the next moment he caught his
breath in irrepressible alarm, for here
was music. Certainly, then, he would
soon be dying. dying of the cold and
storm. They heard music when they
died. Here 1t came again-bells. All,
what n great wide surge of sound, one
moment resonant on the black air, then
repeating itself in whisper, a sigh.
Again il came, shower of tones,
skimming over the water like a flight
OF gray and silver gulls. and now one
strong clash and ring and roll rose
above them all-the Old South bell
and with that came the steely flash of
the North church bell, the hum of the
old town bell the quaver of ST. Paurs.
And then the wind sung I'm. blowing
the sweet alarm all back TO shore
and closing the lanes of the mist and
snow through which they had sifted.

HORTICULTURAL.
DEPARTMENT.

Mattawan road is practically all vine
yard and cherries for the five mile strip
between the towns, as is also the four
mile road to Lawton. On the five mile
road are located the famous Prospect
Hill cemetery and the old fruit farm of
Columbus Engle, one of the pioneer
horticulturists in the state, whose new
creations in peach have rivaled even the
wonders of Luther Burbank in plum.
This street being the only billy one about
the town is decked with its massive wind
breaks of Norway spruce and lined on
either side with orchards and vineyards
its entire length. The Decatur road is
the only one in which common farm
ing holds majority or even has any no.
ticeable representation.
To-day the village of Paw Paw enjoys
a population of about 1000, with good
clean streets lined on either side with
cement walks, fine lawns and we'll kept
houses, a good system of water works,
sanitary sewerage, electric lights, enter
prising merchants and general thrift
The price of labor has doubled in five
years, real estate has more than doubled
in that time, numerous wineries manu-
featuring unfermented grape juice, one
of the most luxurious and healthy drinks
on earth, are locating here, putting up
permanent factories and meeting with
ready sale for all they can produce.
Instead of the mortgage being on the
farms, in most cases fine buildings, nice
vineyards and orchards and snug bank
account have taken their places.
The improvements in and about Lawtor
and Mattawan have been as marked and
steady but not as instantaneous, anC
other towns near by are fast coming in
line. Over 5000 acres of fruit is annually
looking to Paw Paw for a market, which
is readily found by its enterprising buy
ers and associations at a remunerativt
cash price at the car door. Growers here
don't have to wait week for their re
turns; everything is paid for as loaded
on cars.
\ visit to Paw Paw, the most beautiful
town in the state of Michigan, will prove
every statement made herein.

~ Years History of the Great Mich
igan Grape Belt.


The original grape belt Of Michigan
consisted of Lawton, Paw Paw and Mat
tawan. Lawton and Mattawan being
located on the main line of the NJ. G. X.
Il. and Paw Paw on the S. III. IL r. Il. r.,
it at that time being a narrow gauge
road and running all combination trains,
freight and passenger together. Natur-
ally the early growth of Paw Paw was
slow on account of its shipping facilities,
but as the conditions demanded, the S.
III. Il f.. was changed to standard gauge
and Paw Paw commenced to grow. But
~ years ago Paw Paw was a quiet little
town of 1900 to 400 population, and
the only redeeming feature was its
natural resources and favorable location
The only beautiful thing about the vii
lage was its level, evenly graded streets,
lined on either side with luxuriant hard
maple trees from 30 to 30 years of age
giving plenty of shade and greatly adj
ding to the beauty and comfort of the
place. The surrounding country was
made up of mortgage and i'll
kept farms, it being impossible to com
pete at stock or grain farming with the
cheaper lands of the west. The beauty
of the surrounding country and its nat
ural adoption to the grape caused cap
italists and well-to-do city people who
wished to own and operate farm to To-
cate here, there being plenty of lakes
streams and natural pleasure places
Lake Waketa being three miles, Lake
Cora four miles, Lake George five miles
Lake Park one and one-half miles, Eagle
lake five and one-half miles, and several
other smaller lakes within the same
radius from the town.
The value of land in the vicinity |.
years ago was so to $50 per acre with
fair improvements; to-day the same
lands are frequently changing hands al
from SO to S225 per acre. Why? There
is now no road leading from Paw Paw in
any direction that contains over 30 pei
cent. of its farms used for other purposes
than fruit growing. The Black River
road leading to the northwest for a dis
lance of six and one-half miles with
nothing but fruit farms adjoining a like
distance of up-to date, well gravelec
road, there being not single exception
or break in this solid line of fruit farms
The Glendale road known as the Lake
Park drive, carries a distance of un
broken orchards and vineyards fol
nearly three miles. The Allegan road
has about the same amount, while the
Territorial road leading to Kalamazoo
has with its branches nearly 10 miles
with but two or three exceptions. The

State Law Providing For Repair ol
Roads Traversed BY Rural Rouies.

The governor has signed a bill to
require all highways on United
States free delivery mail routes es-
tablished to be kept in repair and
passable condition, and providing
penalties for the violation thereof.
1t shall be the duty Of boards Of
commissioners, township trustees
and road supervisors to keep in re-
pair and in passable condition all
highways in their respective dis
Itri,ts or jurisdictions along or on
which rural free delivery mail routes
have been or may hereafter be es-
tablished, and the township trustee
shall set aside at least 5 per cent Of
the road fund received by them each
year as an emergency fund to be
used in carrying out the provisions
Of this act. 1t shall also be the du-
ty Of such officers to see that such
highways are properly drained, are
kept free from obstructions Of every
kind and nature, including snow
drifts, and are at all times in such
condition as to be readily passable
to ordinary travel.
Indiana is the first state to enact
such a law, which will be the means
Of rapidly extending rural free de-
livery service in this state. In ref
.rence II this bill Mr.. S. B. Rath-
bone, jr., special agent in charge Of
the middle division rural free deliv-
cry service, said:
my reason for asking the legis-
lature to adopt this law was that We
have had a great deal Of trouble in
the different states in this divis ion
in having the road supervisors r.
pair the roads promptly. For in
stance, small culveri would be
washed out, and the road supervisor
would insist that il coulI not be r.
paired without authority from the
commissioners. BY reason Of this
the carriers would be detained often
from serving their routes. The
enactment OF this law makes il pos
sible to create an emergency fund
TO repair bad roads, bridges, etc.
The department in Washington
seems to be very much pleased over
this action on the part Of Indiana,
and in my opinion it will result in
wing nreference IN the exfension
of the services in this state over
other states that have no law pro-
tecting roads traversed by rural free
delivery carriers. The enactment
of this law will givs me an argu-
ment which no other state in this
division will have, o pes mt to Q
10 extend service in
Indiana.
