CHAPTER Ill.
Joy in an Old Orchard.

The following morning was a balmy
and exquisite first Of May and Bert
hustled me off Immediately after break
fast to meet Hard Cider Howard,
whom, by some rural wireless, he had
already summoned.
AS we walked down the road, I
glanced toward my lone pine, and saw
my horse and Mikes hitched to the
pillow, with Joe driving and Mike hold
ing the handles. Across the green pas
ture, between the road and the hay
field, already four rich brown burrows
were shining up to the sun.
At the house we found awaiting a
strengthening man, small, wrinkled.
unkempt, with discouraged mustache
and a nose of a decidedly brighter hue
than the rest of his countenance He
was tapping at the sills Of the house.
How about it, Hard? Cement?"
said Bert.
Hard Cider nodded to me, with a
keen glance from his little, bloodshot
eyes.
yep" he said. "Stucco over it.
Brick underpinnin's be ez good ez moo.
Go inside"
We stepped upon the side porch,
Bert handing me the key and I open
ing the door of my new dwelling with
secret thrill. Hard Cider at once
began on the kitchen floor, ripping up
a plank to examine the timbers be-
meath.
We crossed the hall to the south side,
where there were two corresponding
rooms. Here, as on the other side, the
chimney and fireplaces were on the in
side walls, and the mantels were of a
simple but very good colonial pattern,
though they had been Drowned by
smoke and time to a dirt color.
Nov want these two rooms made

doors into the hall closed up, and a
| glass door cut out of the south side to
a pergola veranda. Can you do it?"
Hard examined the partition. He
climbed on a box which we dragged in,
and ripped away plaster and wood

places on the sides, all without speak.

Editor of Montpelier Argus:

Montpelier, VT, July ID, 1916
Editor of Montpelier Argus:
Dear Sir: Will you please allow
a place in the Argus for what I
have to say in regard to the U. S.
senatorial contest and oblige. So
much has been said in the Argus
which has been copied mostly from
other papers about Senator Page
not being of any account in Con
gress, having done nothing in the
eight years he has been there and
other things said about him which
were not very meritorious to say
the least, which were not true as can
be proved by what MS colleagues
say of him in Congress. What
has Senator Page done for Yer
mont? He has a large business in
! Hyde Park and employed a good
amount of help in his hide and calf
skin business for many years and
has paid the farmers, also others,
a large amount of money for hides
and calfskins here in Vermont and
has paid largely for advertising at
the same time. this is all true.
What has Ex-Governor Fletcher,
who wants to be at this time Sena-
tor, done for Vermont? His bust
ness has mostly been after office as
near as I can find out, and at the
present time is paying 4 large
amount Of money for advertising to
succeed Senator Page in Congress,
and is doing his best to get it. Re
publicans of Vermont will soon de
eide this at the primaries. I am
pleased to offer as proof what is
said of Senator Page by one of the
ablest Republicans in Congress
Hon. H. c. Lodge, In reply to a
letter I wrote him for information
i in regard to Senator Pages services
in congress, and ask to have it
printed in the Argus, so that Re
publicans can know the truth in re
gard to Senator Pages services in
| Congress. Having received this
reliable information from a source
which cannot we'll be doubted, il
seems now that Senator Page is en-
titled to a reelection to Congress
This is from one that believes in a
square deal in politics as well as in
business.
Respectfully submitted,

CHAPTER u.
My Farmer Gomez.

MY Farmer Con,eo
Three days later I closed The deal
and fastened back to college. Profess
sor Grey Of the college botanical de-
partment assigned his chief assistant
at the gardens to my case. He took
me to Boston. and in one day spent ex-
actly $641 Of my precious savings.
while 1 gasped, helpless in my igno-
rance. He bought, 1t appeared to me,
barrels Of seeds, tons Of fertilizers,
thousands Of wheel hoes for horse and
man, millions Of pruning saws and
spraying machines. hotbed frames and
sashes, tomato trellises, and I knew
not what other nameless implements
and 1mpedimenta.
This was rather disconcerttng. But
the die was cast, and came to sud
den realization that seven years Of
teaching the young idea how to punctu-
ate isn't the best possible training for
running a farm, and If I were to get
out Of my experiment with a whole
skin had got to turn to and be my
own chief laborer, and hereafter my
own purchaser, as well.
All that night packed and planned,
and the next morning I left college
forever. I slipped away quietly, before
the chapel bell had begun to ring.
avoiding all lender good-bys. I had q
stack Of experimentation bulletins in
my grip, and during the four hours
spent on the train my eyes never left
their pages. Four hours is not enough
to make q man a qualified agricul-
turisl, but it is sufficient to make him
humble. landed at Bentford station,
hired a hack, and drove at once to nv
farm, and my first thought on alight-
| ing was this: Good, Lord, l never
realized the frightful condition of that
orchard! It will take me a solid week
to save any Of it, and I suppose I'll
| have to set out a lot of new trees be-
sides. More expensey'
Its a dollar up here" said the
driver Of the hack, in a mildly insid1-
Gus voice.
I paid him brusQuely and he drove
away. [ stood in the middle Of the
road, my suitcase beside me, the long

through my dilapidated orchard, and
surveyed the scene. Milt Noble had
gone SO had my enthusiasm. The
house was bare and desolate. 1t hadn't
been painted for twenty years, at least
1 decided. My trunks, which | had
sent ahead by express, were standing
disconsolately on the kitchen porch
Behind me [ heardsmy horse stamping
in the stable, and saw my two COWS
feeding in the pasture. A postcard
from one Bert Temple, my neares
neighbor up the Slab City road, had in
formed me that he was milking then
for me-and, I gathered, for the milk
Well, if he didn't, goodness knew whc
would! I never felt so lonely, so help
less, so hopeless, in my life.
Then an odd fancy struck me. Georg'

"WeI, I'm a sort Of a literary fell

to be the real literary Teller, Mike.
You must write me a poem in pota-
toes"
Mike put back his head and roared.
"It's a pome yer want, is it?'' he cried.
''Sure, it's an Grafton I'll give We. I'll

Ipaused by the side Of the girl. "AIl
Gaul is divided into three parts" I
laughed.

but Mike spoke: "Sure, but they give
all three parts to Nora" he said, $50

"I'll put you TO bed in q minute"
said Nora, while Mike grinned proudly
at her.
"rm going TO lihe Nike" said I to
Bert as we walked back up the road.
II knoo yer would soon ez I seen

thet don't like Mike Is the folks thet
can't see joke. Mike has toIerable
number O. dislfkers."
"Well, I've got my farmer" said I.
land now I suppose I've got 10 find
a housekeeper, as soon as the house Is
ready to live tn. Nora would suit me. %
II reckon she would, 'sbut she
wouldn't suit Bentford."
"In other words, I want an oldish
woman, very plain, and preferably a
widow"
with a young son old enough tel
help on the farm" Bert added with a
grin.
II don't suppose you know Of just

United States Senate
Washington, D. c., July y, 1916
My dear sir.

w aoliiilSIoll, -. ", july II, 1910
My dear sir:
I have received your letter of
July ID. You will understand of
course, that it would not be fitting
for me, a senator from another
state, to take sides in a contest be-
tween Republicans, all members of
my own party, in Vermont But
in reply to questions you ask about
Senator Page it is entirely proper
for me to say that I have known
Senator Page ever since he entered
the Senate eight years ago. He
and I are friends, and my relations
with him have always been most
pleasant. He srecognized by all his
colleagues as a most Woodworking,
capable senator, very industrious
and careful, a very valuable and
diIigent member Of all the COM
mittees to which he belongs, and
he has taken conspicuous part in
all tariff discussions since he en-
tered the Senate. He is, however,
particularly identified with the bill
for vocational education, a measure
Of the utmost importance, to which
he gave many months of careful
/ study. Having framed the bill he
then, BY his persistence, and
determination, finally carried it
/ through the Senate. Although it
failed in the House, this does not
in the least detract from the de
served distinction which Senator
Page earned by his admirable work
and by his championship of this
important measure. His ability
and activity in the work of the SEN
ate are unquestioned by any one
who is familiar with that body.
Very truly yours,
H. G. LODGE

have had relief at once. Another OF
my family has also taken this medi-
cine and has been relieved"
