THE VAMPIRE WITH AN ANGELS
FACE.

XIIHEN Catherine of Russia still
w was a servant in an East Prns.
sian inn. early in the Eighteenth cen
fury a girl named Marie appeared and
asked for her help. She was a blonde
Swede, named Marie, and told a pa
thetic story of running away with a
young man, who had deserted her when
their child was born. She had no
money. was weak and haggard. Woule
Catherine take her in?
Catherine sat the girl down to the
best dinner she could find. and watched
her eat. You have the face of an
angel" she said, and persuaded her
master to let the girl stay. Then the
Russians captured the town, and Marie
and Catherine fell into the hands of
officers.
Marie did not fare so well as Cath
crime. But she exchanged an officer
for a prince. 1t may be said here thai
Marie's child had not died, for she
murdered 1t. The father, who had be-
come an officer In the cars service.
met her when she was living with the
prince and warned her to spare a sec
ond child of which the prince was the
father. But Marie fell into a lake with
the child, and when rescued ii was
dead.
A gew years later Marie appeared
in Petrograd. Catherine had become
the czarina, and Marie had powerful

knew each other, bit 1t is said that
they never mentioned the days at the
inn. Instead. Marie set herself TO win
the attention of Peter the Great. Fail
ing in this. she waited for him when
he was walking in a garden. and threw
herself into his arms.
Catherine and Marie, the former
friends. now crossed swords for Pc
ter's affection. Both were beauties.
and writer's of that time bear testi-
mony to Marie's angelic" face. But
unfortunately for hef1 that same Off
Ger who had warned her, appeared
in Petrograd. And about this time
Marie became the mother of a third
child, said TO have been that of Peter.
She killed this child and threw it into
an old well. 4 servant told the news
of her deed to the officer, who in turn
passed it On to the car.
Peter ordered a great revel held, and
piled Marie with wine until her wits
not her OWL. Then he took her
in his arms, before the whole company,
and by the mastery of his will made
her confess her crimes. Peter was
a devil incarnate TO whom the murder
of a child would have meant little if
it had mol been his own. He flung
Marie from him, and ordered her exc
cution.
When the headsman had severed
the vampires slended neck. Peter
picked up the head and kissed the
dead lips.

side line for the ~drylanders.
Yes, the dry land farmers of Phil
lips county have spent Is years ex
perimenting and a number who prac.
ticed diVersification have won, while
others who wanted to make theil
stake in wheat have not been able
to retire but had to borrow money
to get out of the country and back
to their city jobs where they can be
of more use to society than on dry
land farms. Their farms are now for
sale at ones own price and if one
is a real farmer no better values can
be obtained than right now.
There are 4S,258 acres of land un-
der irrigation in this county, out of
which only $4,000 acres can be culti-
waited. This land can be bought
from $35 to $50 per acre, plus the
irrigation construction charges, but
40 years time will be given for pay
ing these charges. 1t has always
been a mystery to me why people
pay 5000 an acre for irrigated land
in the valleys of interior California,
where the thermometers register 112
degrees in the shade most of the
summer, which produces very little
more than our Montana irrigated
farms where it is a pleasure to w
a home and enjoy the summer wea-
Their.
The Milk river project lies right
along the Great Northern railway
which brings every irrigated farm
within six miles of a shipping point.
Alfalfa grows in abundance and from
four to five tons per acre are pro-
duced each year. The production of
certified Grimm alfalfa seed has be-
come a speciality. Last year this seed
was sold for so cents per pound by
the growers because the purchaser
was guaranteed an absolutely pure
product. Farmers are slowly begin
ming to realize that alfalfa and cows
are the sure and reliable road to
success on these irrigated farms.
One of the big problems a begin
Ter on irrigated farms has is to get
| cash crop and the Great Northern
)ean has helped many solve this
problem. Twenty bushels per acre
S a common yield and last year the
growers realized Z cents per pound
or the beans, giving them an in
.ome of $S4 an acre-enough to pay
or their land after deducting the
ost of production. Edgar Lee, a
.uccessful irrigation farmer living at
)odson, states that his potato and
can land is flooded before planting
nd no more water is needed to pro
.uce excellent yields. This proves a
rreat advantage over the regions
yhere it is necessary to continue the
during the whole summer
eason and more land can also be
armed and bigger profits realized.
Sugar Beet Experimentation
This year there are 120 acres
lanted in sugar beets. Enough ex-
work has been done with
lgar beets to demonstrate that high
sugar content beets can be
reduced as successfully here as any
here in Montana. There are 10O,-
DO acres of irrigated land in nor
fern Montana on the Milk river pro-
ct adapted for sugar beet rotation
Id indications are that a beet fac
ry will be erected here in the near
Lture. II
