 ''I think it will be best to risk it." he said in Russian after brief pause We will tie up the boat, and I will go along the bank and see what the guards are doing. You will remain here, and I shall not be seen. The rushes and undergrowth are higher further along. But if there is danger while I am absent get out and go straight westward until you find the marsh, then keep along its banks due south" and drawing up the boat to the bank the shrewd, big-boned fellow dis appeared into the dark undergrowth.

ALFALFA SlLAGE FOR STEERS
Animals at California Experiment Sta ton Made Satisfactory Gains and
 Brought Profit.

California experiment station made silage out of their first cutting of alfalfa last summer. The field was foul with weeds, there being much foxtail which was nearly ripe. with boards already hard. It was decided that the cutting was practically value less for hay. and therefore the crop was put into the silo.
 The steers were fed on rolled bar ley. alfalfa hay. and the alfalfa sill lage. In two months they made a satisfactory gain. and were sold at a profit of about $5 per head.
 The silage as fed out was about half foxtail. but 1t was always eaten up clean. The experiment shows that silage may be made from weedy al falfa which would make but inferior hay. that such silage will be eaten without waste. and that it can be used as a supplementary food for fatten- ing on alfalfa hay and barley.
 It is suggested that where the first cutting of alfalfa containing foxtail is to be used for silage. the work should be done before the foxtail boards be- come hard.

 Suddenly I heard stealthy foot low voice spoke which I recognized as that of our friend. the Finn,
 There is danger. excellency-a grave danger!" he said in low half whisper. Three boats are in seach of us"
 And scarcely had he uttered those words when there was a flash of a rifle from the haze, loud report, and a bullet whizzed past just behind my head.
 Quick, excellency. Fly. while there is yet time!" gasped the Finn, grasping my hand and half dragging me from the boat, while I, in turn. placed Elma upon the bank.
 The three of us, needless of the con sequences. plunged forward into the impenetrable darkness. just as our fierce pursuers came alongside where we had only moment ago been seat ed.

 So dark that we could see before us hardly a foot. we were compelled to place our hands in front of us to avoid collision with the big tree trunks, while ever and anon we found our selves entangled in the mass of dead creepers and vegetable parasites that formed the dense undergrowth. Around us on every side we heard the shouts and curses of our pursuers. while above the rest we heard an authorita- tive voice, evidently that of a sergeant of the guard. cry:
 Shoot the man, but spare the wom- an! The colonel wants her back. Don't let her escape! We shall be we'll re- warded. So keep on. comrades! Meme edemmaski!"

 Ing in Dumfries Gregg meets Muriel Lelthcourt Hornby appears and Muriel

still the tips of the ears should droop. The large. over-hanging ear is very objectionable to Poland-China breed CTS. In color the Poland-C China is black. with six white points-on the face, on the tip of the tail and on the feet.
 The Poland China was originally a very large hog, but has been bred for refinement and compactness so long that at the present time 1t will not weigh as much as the Berkshire. Poland-Chinas are good feeders and early maturers. They are suited rather to lot feeding than 10 pasture feeding. as they have not the rustling qualities as some of the other breeds. Still they will make good use of pas lures. The meat of this breed Is ten der and fine-grained. but there is moro fat than the average consumer likes and the fat is not suitably distributed with the lean. The Poland-China is not quite as good as the Berkshire or Duroc-Jersey in breeding qualities.

 Enough" blared the bristly officer. You have given shelter to conspira- tors. You know the penalty in Fin land for that, surely?"
 But these gentlemen are surely not conspirators the poor old man pro tested. His excellency is English, and the English do not plot"
 We shall see afterwards" he laughed.
 A dozen times was the old wood cut fused to admit that he had ever set eyes upon Elma. I knew. of course, by what we had overheard said by the prison guards, that the governor gen. eral was extremely anxious to recap ture the girl with whom, frankly ad init, I had now so utterly fallen in love- And it appeared that no effort was being spared to search for us. But what could be the truth of Elmas dis appearance? Had she fled of her own accord or had she once more fallen victim to some ingenious and das- tardly plot. That gray dress of hers might. I recollected. betray her if she dared to venture near any town, while her afIliction would, of itself, be plain evidence of identification. All hoped was that she had gone and hidden herself in the forest somewhere in the vicinity to wait until the danger of recapture had passed.
 For as long as possible I succeeded in delaying our departure, but at length, just as the yellow sun began to struggle through the gray clouds, we were all three compelled to depart in sorrowful procession.
 At nine o'clock I stood in the big. bare office of Michael Boranski, where only short time before we had had such heated argument. As soon as the chief of police had entered, he recognized me under arrest, and dis missed my guards with a wave of the hand-all save the officer who had brought me there. He listened to the officers story of my arrest without saying a word.

At concert held in a certain town a soldier of the Black Watch occupied a seat in front of a private of an Irish regiment and his sweetheart. The lat. ter was very much interested in the Highlanders uniform. and scanned the regimental badge on his cap and collar particularly.

Audacity of Woman Spies.

A climax to the audacity of spies is said to have been reached in the case of a woman pretending to be English and giving her name as Miss Booth. who. in connection with another wom- an calling herself Baroness de Rosen. organized a charitable work at the Care du Nord. in Paris, which they called For the Wounded and for the Refugees" The former. suspected of illicit communication with the Ger mans, passed before court-martial and was sentenced to two years i'm prisonment, while the latter. against whom no tangible proof could be pro- duced. was invited to leave French ter. ritory within 4S hours

Women and Sheep.

They are good grade Lincolns and Shropshires. bought nine of each, and raised one sheep which was cross. Fifteen sheep cost about as much as nine cows. The COWS would yield a larger income than the sheep, but would require more care. My flock needs IF acres of pas. ture in summer.

QUALITIES OF POLAND- CHINA
Breed Considered Ideal of Lard Type of Hog-Gives High Per Cent of
 Marketable Meat.
CBy D. l., GRAY.)

(By ID. L. GRA1.J
 The Poland-China breed of hogs originated in the state of Ohio. This breed is considered the ideal of the lard type of hog. The individuals are broad on the back, compact, low, and dress a high per cent of marketable meat. The back is broader and shorter than that of the Berkshire, but the latter has the advantage Of the Poland-C China in length of side.
 The face of the Poland-China is longer and not dished so much as that of the Berkshire. While the ideal ear of the Poland China hog stands erect.

 Our host told them his name, and asked why they wished to enter,

 "No," responded the wood cutter. We never see any woman out in these woods"
 Who is your chief?" I inquired, as a sudden thought occurred to me.
 "Melnikoff. at Helsingfors.'
 Then this is not in the district of Abo?"
 No. But what difference does 1t make? Who are you?"

 And you are the drosky driver from Abo," remarked the fellow, turn ing to Felix. Exactly as l thought You are the pair who bribed the nun at Kajana, and succeeded in releasing the Englishwoman. In the name of the czar, arrest you!"

 And on what charge, pray. do you presume to arrest me?" I inquired as coolly as l could.

ny eyes were In q terrible state: i
could hardly stand it. They were red
and inflamed, felt as though they had
sand in them. They would ache and
burn dreadfully and caused incessant
headaches. I could hardly read at all.
After wearing my glasses my eyes felt
strained and overworked. BY oi.Ence

him the same way. He gave me the
