CHAPTER XIII.
The Break of Storm.

We had no more pleasant weather
for days, the skies being overcast and
the wind damp and chill. It did not
rain, nor were the waves dangerous,
although choppy enough to make pad
ding tiresome and difficult.
A mist obscured the view and COM
PEELED us to cling close to the shore
so as to prevent becoming lost in the
smother, and as we dare not venture
to strike out boldly from point to
point, we lost much time in creep
ing along the curves.
The canoes kept closer together,
never venturing to become separated,
and the men stationed on watch in
the bows continually called to each
other across the tossing waters in
guidance. Even D'Arttgny kept with
in sight, and made camp with us at
night, although he made no effort to
seek me, nor did once detect that he
even glanced in my direction. The
studied Indifference of the man puz-
zled me more than it angered, but 1
believed it was his consciousness of
guilt, rather than any dislike which
caused his avoidance. In a way /

very clear conception Of where we
were. The night before we had camped
at the mouth of small stream, the
surrounding forest growing down close
to the shore, and so thick as to be
| almost impenetrable. The men had
set up my tent so close to the water
the waves broke scarcely a foot away,
and the fire about which the others
clustered for warmth was but few
yards distant.
Wrapped in my blankets saw
D'Artlgny emerge from the darkness
and approach Cassion, who drew a
map from his belt pocket and spread
it open on the ground in the glare OF
the fire. The two men bent over it.

They had scarcely exchanged O

Discussing the Americap hotel,
which of late years has largely ceased

said:
"Some people complain that the
front of the house, the room clerks

in American hotels.
"Be the fact as it may, the front
of the house can't be too courteous.

Liberal feeding of dairy cows is nee

The maintenance ration is a hxed
charge, and the more feed a cow can
consume above that required for main

available for milk production
From the standpoint OF economical
production, one can afford to give a
cow all the feed she will consume

YOU SHOULD GROW
GOOD STRAWBERRIES

A portion or every home garden
should be devoted to strawberries. They
are easy to grow, do we'll on practical
ly every kind of soil, and very small
area is sufficient to supply the family.
BY planting varieties that ripen in
succession. fresh fruit may be had
from early spring until late in the
summer. In the early fall, until the
frs. OF November, is the best time to
set the plants. Delighting In cool
weather. If set at this timo they will
become we'll established by spring, and
will be able to resist droughts which
often occur at this season.
In selecting plants for the new bed.
only the strongest OF the present
years runners should be used. The
roots OF new plants are always white,
which distinguishes them from older
plants whose roots are always black.
Previous to planting, remove a por-
ton OF the leaf surface to lessen evap-
grafton, and shear the roots to about
one-half If they are very long. A com.
mon mistake In planting Is to scoop
out a shallow hole and thrust the
plant into II, leaving the roots a
crumpled mass with their tips near
the surface where they quickly dry
out To avoid this make a deep hole
with spade or long-pointed trowel, in.
sert the roots and spread them out fan

full length. In this way. every part
Of the root system will be In direct

bud, just at the surface. II Il is below

OF the various methods OF training

without doubt the most satisfactory
for he home grower. The plants are

as they appear in order that the en-.

season, the plants should have thick

quantity TO produce a fmax,naum crop
