CHAPTER XXXII.
HOME BUILDING IN THE WILDER
NESS

HOME BUILDING IN TIE WILDER
When Martin, aided by his guides,
had made their own camp ready for
the night and supper was disposed of,
he started for the hermit's hut. He
had learned from Jean that all was
well with AMI and old Cy. and now
a call on them was in order.
The October new moon was bright
In the western sky, the evening air
cool and crisp, the leaves falling from
the birches rustled beneath his feet,
and as he came in sight of the hut,
a CHEEKY light cleaned from it's one
small window. He halted a moment
at the gate, for out from this rude
home came the sound of music once
more. It was not sad refrain now,
but that cheerful old-time dance tune,
THE Irish Washerwoman," and as
Martin paused to listen a moment, it
carried him back to his boyhood when
he had cut pigeon wings to its lively
measures, and then clasped Angles
supple waist when Balance and
swing" echoed from the bare brown
rafters.
And now 500 miles away from those
old associations, he was listening to II
once again, twanged by her father on
a jews'-harp!
1t bore the same joyous mood as OF
yore, and, more than that, assured
him that this strange recluse and old
Cy were now quite content and happy.
And why shouldn't they be and con-
inue thus here? And what was to be
gained by insisting upon changing con-
ditions and almost dragging this poor
old man back to Greenvale and to sur
roundings long since forgotten? II
was but the same conclusion that had
first come to him when he left here
with the officers, now returning with
convincing force. And what harm
sould follow? AMI was content-the
hes of his manhood were severed
earlier feelings dead and buried, he
and old Cy, two fossils as 1t were, were
happy together and could be- of mu-
tual help and comfort. They were, OF
could be properly provided for during
winter; old Cy, absolutely without ties
In Greenvale, would be glad to remain
here, and why not?

Then somewhat cre5tfallen and yet
helpless to do anything else except re-
treat, Scott led the way back to the ca
noes. And it must be noted that the
time consumed in so doing was of the
briefes:-
The -FOUR camped together that night,
as indeed they had to, and when they
parted ways next day, Martin felt no
regret.

the snow or bare ground in winter with
pieces of the dead clover and alfalfa
stems, but their distribution is effected
! chiefly by artificial means.
Dodder seeds placed in the soil ger
inmate, under favorable conditions, in
practically the same manner as do the
seeds of clover or other plants, but in
stead Of two green leaves there appears
above the surfave a very slender, incon-
spicuous yellow shoot. This binds to
one side, then swings slowly around,
lengthening meanwhile, until it strikes
q green plant. If no plant upon which
it can live is within reach, the dodder
seeding dies as soon as it has exhausted
the nutriment stored up in the seed. But
ii the swinging shoot comes against a
congenial host, it twines about it. in
some places tightly, in others loosely.
One of the most practical methods to
complete the eradication of dodder after
removing the vegetation from infested
spots is to spade or hoe the soil to the
depth of about two inches and to keep
this stirred so as to prevent the growth
of any plants for three weeks. This
! method is especially recommended if
the dodder vines had begun to produce
seed before their removal. Fire may be
used to destroy the dodder. To destroy
by this means seeds that have fallen 10
the ground, requires a considerable de-
gree of heat maintained for several min
utes. This is secured by covering the
inf cfa 1;or1,k Nh:
well sprinkled with kerosene. Straw or
shavings Go not produce heat enough
close to the ground.
DOdder has been killed in some in
stances by smothering it with thick
covering of manure, muck, or ashes, but
A thick sprinkling of wood ashes when
the clover is wet with dew may accom-
plish the desired result, chiefly through
the action of potash, but this method also
is unreliable. These methods are for
application in fields where the dodder is
confined to comparatively small spots.
They are not practicable where large
areas or. considerable portions of field
are infested.
One of the best methods for subduing
dodder after it has become widely dis
tributed, says Orange Judd Farmer, is
to turn sheep on the land, combining them
with a portable fence if necessary, so
that they will keep the infested areas
closely grazed. While pastured in dod-
der-infested fields, the sheep should not
be moved about the farm any more than
is necessary, as they are likely to carry
dodder seeds and pieces of the vine in
the clefts of their hoofs and in their wool.
Dodder can usually be eradicated by
thorough cultivation with corn or root
crops for two successive seasons For
the destruction of alfalfa dodder and
clover dodder, any crops may be cult
waited except those of leguminous plants;
but, as warty dodder and field dcdder
grow and thrive almost equally Well on
great variety of host plants. only such
crops can be grown for their eradica-
ton as will admit of clean cultivation

The Islesboro Changes Hands.

The Bangor News says it is reported that
that famous old hostelry at Ryder's Cove
North IslesbOro, first known as the Isles
boro hotel, then as the Seaside house and
lately as The Islesborough, has been sold
by Bragg & Prebe to the Pendletons. 1t is
further stated that the house will be entire
ly renovated and refurnished, the wharf re-
paired, and everything put in the best pos
sible condition for the season of 1906 The
house was not opened at all this last sum-
mer. The house was originally owned and
conducted by the Ryders, but they went to
heavy expense in enlarging it and it finally
passed out of their hands. Some years ago
it was a great resort for Bangor people, and
the Saturday night hops and musicales were
social events Many cottages were built in
the vicinity, and the location is certainly all
that could be desired for a prosperous sum-
mer resort OF late the place has been some
what neglected, while the exclusive hotel at
Dark Harbor has prospered. Judging from
what has been done elsewhere we should
say that if this hotel is brought up-to-date
in all its appointments, made tirst-class
house, with trst-class prices, it can be made
a valuable property and enhance the value
of real estate in the vicinity.

What yellow journalism is was
brought home to us last week by a
Boston daily of that type. 1t published
what purported to be portrait, but
was really a caricature, of a young lady,
and the accompanying text was no less
untruthful. The attempt was made to
localize here second Geary tragedy,
for which there was and is no founda-
ton, and in So doing needless pain was
inflicted upon relatives and friends.
We are sorry to have to add that GER
tain Maine newspapers have followed
the lead of this Boston yellow journal,
and, although some of the statements
made purport to be from different
standpoint, it is evident that the only
object is to exploit sensation, regard
