ARCTIC COTTON PLANT.
The Climax of Natures Irony In the
Far North.

The Climax of Natures Irony In the
Far North.
The climax of natures irony in the
arctic is the cotton plant, says the Cir
Gle. Wherever cotton blooms, declares
the miner, ice is not far below. One
may trudge for miles through fields of
cotton, the white, silky tops swaying
defiantly in the arctic breeze. The
blossom is silky, dainty, Elusive as the
down of our own yellow dandelion.
From the beginning of June ON until
August the tundra is white with the
cotton plant. Unlike the cotton of the
southern states, the fiber is short and
soft, having mora Of the texture of silk
than of cotton.
The cotton plant will in all probable
ity some day be the means of develop
ing an Alaskan industry giving EN-
ployment to thousands. Today, howev-
er, the cotton fields are purely decora-
tive-a splendid sweep of immaculate
bloom in bleak, timberless landscape
guarded by hills ever hung in wells of
deepest purple. In great bouquets it is
while not few housewives gather the
cotton for pillow filling.
Throughout the cotton fields flowers
bloom in abnormal splendor, as be-
comes Il country in which the sun
shines continuously during summers
voluptuous reign. 1t is an intoxicating
joy for the flower hunter to gather
great armfuls of purple larkspur, blue
bells, monks head, primroses, sweet
peas, beautiful purple and red asters
large as the most cultivated, lilies of
the valley, baby breath, yellow arrow,
sage rose, pink and white arctic gera-
mum, crimson rhododendrons and gil
ant fireweed, all growing on the hill
sides. To enumerate further is to re-
produce a florists catalogue.

bedraggled hens squawked dolefully as
they picked up the angleworms driven
TO the surface by the continued rain

in the side pasture huddled under the
dripping trees, and the dog trotted
across the road with his tail dragging
almost in the mud as he made for the
protection of the barn after being driv-

Brooks had come to Centerville for
purpose-a purpose that was not best

the Big rock, where they had first
met the summer before, and there
make the avowal of love that had hung
trembling upon his lips ever since. He
had been able to take a whole month
the year before-four golden weeks fill
ed with sunshine and love.
Then Bess had gone to Europe as
companion to rich relative, and just
as she returned Curtis Brooks had been
called to South America ON a matter of
great Importance. They had CORE
sponded with such regularity as their
uncertainty Of movement permitted,

a proposal, and now their waking time
