While lounging in hotel, old
chap. became engaged in an in
teresting chat with a fellow con-
nected with theatrical troupe in
q managerial capacity, so to
speak. Having become firm
friends through the interchange
of sympathetic ideas, don't you
know, he graciously invited me
to attend his performance in the
following language:
Say, pal, your ears amt
mates, but / like you, and I want
you to be my guest at the show
shop, where we're packing 'em
into the bail rings and walking
on old Bill Shakespeare's map at
every performance. Listen, your

selling the ducats faster than

estate on Summit ay. From this
slope on Corey Hill, which is the
highest point of land immediate

view; all Boston, its harbor and

Harriet had almost made up her
mind to marry Jasper kearney. Jas
lper's fate had been hanging in the
balance for years. There was Il good
deal of the harnacle in Jasper's

sort of man who worked hard and
saved his money. He was very quiet
and gentle and grave But he wanted
Harriet. He wanted her SO much
that he would not give her up even
though she had twice told him to go
about his business. And in the end

cession. If l ever find a happy mar

Pride had gone into business and in
tended to make Westmore his per-

came to Westmore, but they still

laser kearney ought to be worthy of
a little. Her heart sof,ened to Jasper
Kearney in SO far that she let him
come and sit on the porch with her
moonlight evenings, While the Prides
played love songs on the photograph.
After two months of this Harriet be-
gan to feel that she was a c%onnois-
seur in that class of music and she
wondered if November would be too
late for a wedding journey.
The truth was. Harriet was tired
of living alone. After a half dozen
years the independence of a single
woman had begun to pail on her.
But for n thing she would have
married Jasper Kearney long before.
She had no faith in men. Her father

riet replied coldly. In time she saw
her mother harried to her grave. then
the whole brunt of living with her
father fell upon her. They had violent
times together, for Harriet had fire in
her. too. She did not quail as her
mother had done. Her father kept her
fully occupied. She had no time for
young company. 1t was not pleasant
to ask her friends to her home when
her father was there, and so she came
not to ask them at all. So it went
on for fifteen years. Then in a At Of

sounded thick and unnatural. Cant

The other man kept still. He
seemed to be assisting Mr.. Pride, who
reeled and staggered and pitched. He
was undoubtedly dizzy again. They
got up on the porch. Togo ran to

fed with a howl.

Of seed. The cost Of picking up is
the actual cost Of this year on on Mr..

pected to average $50 bushels per acre.
exceptionally good care will increase
or more, hut these larger yields he
does not consider safe to figure on for
large tracts.
According to these figures. which
experience, the potato crop is a very
safe and very profitable crop. The
fall price seldom falls below 25 cents,
and as a rule it ranges much higher.
Potatoes r being bought for ship
ment now for 80 to so cents. At the
lower price the crop is a very safe
n n at the higher a highly re-
n1unerative one. 1t must be remem-
bered. however. that this cost price is
possible only when the work is sci
.entifcally managed, SO as to prevent
waste. If hand labor were substituted
for the power planter and digger. and
if the most thorough system were not
used or the organization of all the
work. there would be a different tale
to tell.
The potato crop shares With the
crop the advantage Of heing ca
pahle Of production at a profit and at
the same time cleaning and mellowing
the land and putting it in better con-
dition for further crops, The Lari-
more district is an ideal one for pota-
toes, but there is no part of the state
in which the crop cannot be raised
to advantage.
