SAYS KNIK AGRICULTURE
 BEATS MASSACHUSETTS

Situated on the banks of the beauti- full Knik lake, directly across from Knik city, A. J. Pierce last April filed on homestead. He started in im- mediately clearing off the timber and getting down to actual farming. A run across to Mir. Pierce's Crystal Springs ranch will convince the most sceptical that this section of Alaska certainly has great future as an ag- ricultural country. Potatoes, cabbage, carrots, parsnips, peas and lettuce have thrived on this ranch this year. From twenty pounds of seed MT. Pier ce has already taken out of small patch over eighteen crates of potatoes. Three strawberry beds on this ranch also promise to turn out successful. Next spring it is the intention of the owner of the Crystal Springs ranch to experiment on alfalfa.
 Mir. Pierce, who comes from Massa- chusetts, says this is the finest agri- culture land he has ever seen. In his opinion five acres properly cultivated, would make man independent.

well that to which his father made

CHAPTER x,II--con.inued.

That's what I've come here to find
out. want to find out what the devil
is the matter with you"
7 Broadway had heard the voices, Mrs
Spotswood had conveyed the news to
him, and now he himself hurried down
the steps.
Have your father come right inside,
Bob" he urged, "and make himself at
home"
He went on to the elder Wallace,
holding out his hand, and then, when
1t was not seized eagerly, gripping
earnestly for Wallace's.
by gracious, I'm awfully glad to
see you! Bob has spoken OF you so
often and told me SO much about you
that " feet as Il know you almost
as well as he does"
The elder Wallace showed no an
swering enthusiasm. He only tried to
get his hand away from Broadway's
cordial grasp.
Did you know he was coming?"
broadway demanded of the visitors

7 ooh, little surprise. Ell? Well, just
In time for dinner! Come along inside
and meet the folks. Having a bully
time, aren't we, Bob?"
Yes; fine. This Is jackson Jones,
guv'nor. You've heard me speak of
him"
! Yes; I've heard of him." his father
answered dryly,
Isn't 1t strange we never met be-
tore?" said Broadway effusively. Bob
and I being such good friends. But
were going to get better acquainted,
aren't we Come inside"
No, thank you. I'd like to speak to
my son alone. il you have no objec-
tions."
"Oh, why, of course"
\ As Wallace turned away Broadway
.had chance to whisper In Bob's ear:
.t'Anything wrong?'
] 1T will be all right. Don't worry"
WELL" said Broadway cordially, as
1.-THE father and son began to move in
silence toward the gate, I'm expect
you In as soon as you're through with,
your little talk. Well wait dinner for
you"
you needn't bother. SIR" said Gro
Ner Wallace firmly.
"oh it's no bother at all I'm only too
glad to get the chance to entertain.
You know this is my irst day in "a
regular home and I'm having the time
of my life" He warned Bob playful
lly: Don't you let him get away.
Bob. I'll tx up something cute. l
know what he wants"
The elder Wallace looked at him for
SCENT two seconds with glance
(which indicated that he thought him
far too unimportant to receive more
icopious attention. Then he turned
severely to his son.
