CHAPTER xI.

Cherry had fat now In Red Greek
Park" 1t differed from an apart
ment because 1t had no elevator, no
janitor, no steam heat. These things
were neither known nor needed In the
crude mining town; the fiat building
itself was considered a rather ques-
tionable innovation. 1t was wooden
building. three stories high, with bay
windows. Cherry had watched this
building going up, and had thought ii
everything desirable. She liked the
clean kitchen. all fresh white wood
work. tiles, and nickelplate, and she
liked the big closets and the gas-log.
She had worried herself almost sick
with fear that she would not get this
wonderful place, and finally paid
twenty-five dollars for the first
months rent with fast-beating
heart. She had the center floor.
But after the excitement Of moving
in died away, she hated the place.
She had enough money to hire a maid

there Was charming fussing and dust
Ing, there were flowers I'm bowls, and
books set straight, and there was just
the different little angle to piano and
desk and chairs and tables that made
the cabin a home at last. She wanted
bricks for a path: he had laughed at
her fervent. 'Do give me whole car
load of bricks for Christmas, Peterf
She wanted bulbs to pot. He had
lazily suggested that they open the
town house while carpenters and
painters remade the cabin, but she
had protested hotly, "Oh. do let's keep
it just as ii always was!" Smiling, he
gave her her way.

SPRING PRUNING PREFERRED
Work on All Cane Fruits Should Be
Done Just Before Sap Commences
to Flow.

Pruning of berries and all cane
fruits should preferably be done in the
spring just before the sap commences
to flow and after all danger of killing
frosts are past. Danger of winterkill.
ing where fall or winter pruning is
practiced is great, because the open
end of the cane permits the frost to
travel down the soft center of the
canes to the roots. That is why spring
pruning is to be preferred. In this
pruning, remove all dead canes from
the previous seasons fruiting canes
and also thin down the present canes
to not more than three or four sturdy
ones to each old, established root
stock. Quality berries are worth more
than quantity OF inferior berries
and these quality berries are produced
only where the roots are not over
taxed.

important. 1t is not desirable to tip

accomplished by cutting the top back
very heavily-even going back into

by cutting to stubs five or six feet

her kitchen, but she found her freedom

came to town for one night; then
Martin took his wife, and they bowed
to half the men and women In the
house, lamenting as they streamed
out into the sharp night air that Red
Creek did not see more such prOduc-
tions.
The effect of these plays was to
make Cherry long vaguely for the
stage; she really did not enjoy them
for themselves. But they helped her
to visualize Eastern cities. lighted
streets, restaurants full of lights and
music, beautiful women fifty gowned.
After one Of these performances she
would not leave her fiat for several
days, but would sit dreaming over the
thought of herself In the heroine's
role.
One day she had letter from Alix !;
1t gave her heartache, she hardly
knew why. She began to dream of her
own home, of the warm, sweet little
valley whose breezes were like wine,
of Tamalpais wreathed In fog, and of
the ridges where buttercups and pop
pies powdered child's shoes with
gold and silver dust. She began to
hunger for home. Nothing that Red
Creek could offer shook her yearning
for the remembered sweetness and
beauty of the redwoods, and the
| great shade of the mountain. She
wanted to spend whole summer with
Alix.
She was athirst for home, for old
scenes and old friends and old emo
tions! She had only to hint to Alix
| to receive q love letter containing q
| fervent invitation. SO it was settled.
With sort Of feverish brevity Cherry
completed her arrangements; Martin
was to use his own judgment In the
matter Of boarding or keeping the fiat.

hope was that she might never see
Red Creek again.
| Alix met her sister at the ferry In
San Francisco on a soft May morning.
She WAS an oddly developed Alix,
trim and tall, prettily gowned and
yelled, laughing and crying with JOY
at seeing Cherry again. Peter, she
explained between kisses, had had to
go to Los Angeles three days ago had
been expected home last night, and
was not even aware yet that Cherry
was definitely arriving.
"Of course, he knew mat you were
coming, but not exactly when," Ali1
said, as she guided the newcomer

Hints
PRUNING YOUNG PEACH TREE

Heading on yearling peach trees
Just set out should be done just
