SIDE With his front feet dangl1n'
clear of the ground and lookin'
plum foolish in the face when the
Cheechawker says to his dorg,
quiet and easy like, Go git him!'
Say, that little runt of a fox
terrier just sailed into that bear as
if he had been ragged tramp,
and sunk his teeth in pretty we'll
down on the bears stummick. The
bear made a desprit effort to grab
the little upstart with his two
front paws, raisin' up on his hind
legs a little in the meantime, and
the little cuss of a pup went out
through his hind legs like rabbit
and nipped the bear in the back
before he could turn around.
That was too much for the
bear, and with a sickenin' wo-o-o-f!
he lit out for his kennel which was
about the size of a smoke-house.
He went into his domicile so fast
that he plum upset it and the
Cheechawker he'd to call off his
dorg to keep the bear from break
in his anchor chain. LAWN all
jokin' aside, that dorg beat any
thin l ever see!"
Black bear are very common on
the mountainous shores of Turn
again Arm. and though they may be
seen any day above the timber line,
they are very difficult to hunt.
While they are plainly visible in
the open, grassy strips in the alder
and willow belt above timber,
where they come about the middle
of May in quest of fresh green
grass which grows in the narrow
strips of open country caused by
land slides and snow slides, they
have usually left the steep, open
glade and disappeared in the
brushy thicket by the time the
hunter has climbed to where he
can get his first view of the open
places after leaving the beach.
I saw, from a government rail-
road construction camp at Mile 78
on the Seward Iditarod trail. from
one to five bears every day for two
weeks, and though it looked like
a, b, C, to 60 up there and shoot a
mess of bear for supper, expert
ence taught me that it simply
could not be done, unless a man
had the patience of stork and
could climb up one of those grassy
glades, conceal himself in the
brush, and wait till a bear came
out to browse in that particular
glade, for, though the hunters
panorama included practically the
entire Turnagain Arm region, he
must confine his hunting to that
little grassy strip where he has
chosen to lie in wait for bruin.
While stopped at this camp, an
incident occurred that l will long

HE Kadiak or brown bear
of Alaska, besides being
the largest species of the

HgN1WGN the largest species of the
NNy genus Ursus, is also the
most ferocious when annoyed by
persistent shooting. He will COM
monty weigh from 1,200 to 1900
pounds. That is too much bear
done up in one bundle. l prefer
to do my bear hunting in coun-
try where they come in smaller
packages.
1 know, of course, thatiti is easier
to skin one bear than three or four
to get the same amount of meat
and fur, but there are other con-
siderations. When a man suddenly
meets one of these quadrupeds, it
makes him feel like miserable in
sect and he knows that if he misses
his first and second shots, he might
as we'll quit bear hunting, for by
that time the bear will be so close
to the muzzle of his rifle that it
would be unsportsmanlike to
shoot.
There is something hideous and
repulsive about the face of an angry
Kadiak bear viewed within ten
PAGES, and it requires great tenaci-
ty of purpose for any man to wait
for the heartless beast to get any
nearer, especially if the footing is
good and there are friendly trees
nearby.
Near my cabin in Alaska, there
was a clear water creek, about a
foot deep and from four to six feet
wide, which was literally alive
with salmon from June to October.
This creek was also the summer
address of what l seriously believe
was the largest bear this side of
the Big Dipper. His foot print in
the dry river bed at the mouth of
the creek looked like an excavation
for small cellar. Under his enor-
nous weight his foot crushed
through the hard gravel where my
partner and 1, clad in heavy hob
nailed boots, would leave no visible
tracks.
All along the creek were the re-
mains of salmon the bear had killed
by throwing them out of the water
with one blow of his mighty paw.
Some of the fish we're half eaten;
others were stripped clean to the
back bone. l found several that
had not even been tasted; one of
them was so fresh that the blood
was still oozing from the big claw
marks. Evidently the bear was
nearby, watching me from some
tangle of devils club, willow and
alder. AS I had left my Mauser
at the camp that day, 1 felt very
much embarrassed.
Near where found the untasted
salmon, the bear had dug a neat,
bowl-shaped hole about three feet
in diameter and two feet deep in
the cool dirt of the creek bank
about three feet from the edge of
the water. About a rod from this
hole, l found another similar de-
preston apparently made by the
same bear year or two before.
/ cannot imagine what the bear
used the holes for, as they were
not large enough for him to lie
down in. l will say. however, that
they were geometrically perfect,
and looked exactly as if they had
been made by pressing three-foot
ball into the ground to depth OF
two feet. Though actually hunt
ed that bear every day for week,
Inever even glimpsed him, though
there were plenty of signs that
showed that he visited the creek
every day during that time.
My partner, a hopeless biped
from Portland, Ore, who didn't
know the difference between a mink
track and that of a lynx, when he
saw all the those bear signs so near
our cabin, suggested that we build

AMERICAN FARMERS AND

Secbretary Of Agriculture d. F..

farmers of the United States in the
Fourth Liberty Loan; as follows.
1.-THE Fourth Liberty Loan will
not fail for lack of support by Am

sertion in the face of the fact that
the American people are now being
asked to make a colossal contribu-
tion to liberty, six billion dollars.
american farmers have demon
strated their patriotic support of
the nations great war loans. One
, of the most striking features of the
Third Liberty Loan was the support
given by the farming rural popula-
ton. Not only did farmers pur-

SAVE GARDEN SEEDS.

Every boy and girl who has had
a garden this season should, when
ever possible. save seed for next
years planting. In many cases 1t Is
possible to gather beans and peas
that have become too old for eat
ing. thus assuring a supply Of good
seed for next years. planting. AS q
rule, with limited garden areas, 1t
will not pay to grow beans, peas,
sweet corn and other vegetables for
the production of seed, but when a
surplus is allowed to become too old
for eating it does pay to save this
surplus for seed. Sufficient tomato,
squash melon, cucumber. and corn
seed may be saved from the pro-
duct of almost any garden provided

ter Seed should be saved from
strong, healthy plants. In the case
of beans. peas and sweet corn the
seed should be allowed to ripen on

to label every package of seed to
avoid confusion at planting time.

HOW FOREST SERVICE
HELPS IN THE WAR

The forest service Of the United
States is modifying the country's
forest resources for war by helping
the war and navy departments and
munition manufacturers get the
kinds and quantities of wood need
ed for rifles. airplanes. wheels and
other specialties; finding out what
kinds and grades of wood are suit
able for war-time's special require
ments: training inspectors of wood
materials; improving timber speci-
fications; and investigating and
testing material. processes. and pro-
ducts used in manufacture OF war
supplies derived in whole or In part
from wood. 1t Is also stimulating
the production of meat, wool. and
hides on national forest ranges;
cooperating with stockmen to lower
losses from poisonous plants; aiding
the fuel administration to increase
fuel supplies through use Of wood
and is teaching the conservation OF
natural resources. It has helped
recruit two regiments Of forest en-
gineers for service abroad, and has
contributed more than 375 men,
bers to the colors.

OF Interest to Farmers

and at a comparatively low cost. In
most towns where the markets have
been established old buildings GEN.
trallyt located have been utilized
and furnished at little cost. In
many of the markets canning kitch-
ems are conducted and fruits and
vegetables not sold in the first con-
dition are canned either for the
owner at cost or to be sold later.

for themselves, but also for those at
home who could not make the pilgrim
age. These devotees, who, as rule,
live in the Holy Land from Christmas
to Easter, visiting all its sacred shrines
and hallowed cities, bring much money

Too dutiful to refuse to obey the
commands Of her father, too loving to
be untrue to her own heart, she knew
not what to do, 80 going out unto the
mountains she prayed to heaven for
deliverance, and the gods, who hear
the prayers of those who trust, chang
ed her into a tall lily, with petals
white as her fair skin and golden pis-
til that shone as had her flowing
tresses.
Years passed and Plini wandered
the whole world through, seeking for
his lost love. From every passerby he
asked, 'Have you seen Tamara, the
fairest of maidens?" To the wild
winds as they blew he prayed, ooh,
find for me my love-" But no an.
swer came until home once more in his
own country he found and knew the
lily. Failing on his knees beside it he
cried, 'Is it indeed thee, oh, Tamara %
and, like the sigh of the soft south
wind he heard the flower whisper, 1T
is l, my beloved"
Then, all his years of fruitless search
| past, he clasped the blossom to his
heart and wept, and the flower, feel
ing the warm tears of love, blushed
rosy with joy. But what was life to
him when she who made the sunshine
| of his heart was gone? So the merci-
full gods changed him to a shower,
which ever and anon falls in refresh
| ing rain on the lilies of the Caucasus,
and when there is drouth in the land
the maidens gather the flowers of Ia
mara and strew them over the fields
singing as they go the song of Plini,
invoking his love that once more he
may bring the blush of joy to the pet
ais of his beloved.
Records Lily's Shame.
Among the Christian legends of the
lily we find the origin of the tiger, or

heads proudly erect, but on the night
