THAT sterling friend of the populace.

of the rights and the utoruls

of his admiring constituents, that vociferous
choice of- tfae-people. State
Senator Allerton. was discovered by
Sledge in the act of serving the public
interests by playing poker in the roouis
of Assemblyman Buckley, and with
these two conscientious patriots, deep

honorable sears of forensic battle
It was Cap Digglesby who was the
first toehail the 'visitor as he entered
the door.
"Hello, malefactor of great wealth,"
he called. "Have you a spare queen of
clubs about your person?"
"I'm shy on queens." "confessed
Sledge, look i tiy down with I ltd iff:-fence
at the game he played so indifferently
"Buckley. I'm dry."
"Beat you to it, old man." replied
Buckley easily lie was a spare p r.-? n
with Ilia neatly combed appearate ? of
a dancing master, but with intensely
clear eyes and deep creases in his
cheeks. "I sent word t" the hat a - soon
as the phone announced yon. Your

"Thanks!" grunted Hi. dgc. and con

only one who succeeded. Sledge, pans

ly arranged sideboard, moved Into the
adjoining room Allerton arose from
the table.
"Deal me out for g couple of rounds,"
he suggested. "Buckley, watch my
stack. There's twenty-three IJOy in It.
and Pop Clrcshnin's pile is mighty
low."
Pop Gresbam took ten bluett from
Allerton's assortment and added them
to his own.
"Charge me ten from your friend's
treasury. Buckley." he chuckled, with
a playfulness intended to conceal Ids
real satisfaction.
"Well, what's new?" asked Allerton.

"You must have a-fMj^outlook,"
wondered Allerton.
"Naw!" repudiated Sledge. "It's rotten!
No franchises."
"I thought you held easily salable
ones, from what I saw In the papers,"
puzzled Allerton. "It you haven't,
however, you can easily get them front
the city council." .
"They're no good," Insisted Sledge.
"Short terms."
"That's right," agreed Allerton, beginning
to see the light "Franchises
In this state can be granted for twenty
years and are renewable In ten year
periods at the option of the city council.
I suppose your new franchises are
for twenty years."
"Uh-buuh!" assented Sledge. "That's
when the profits begin."
"For both the company and Its official
friends," smiled Allerton. "It's
rather a good provision as far as the
public is concerned, however. It gives
(he people a voice."
"Why?" demanded Sledge. "They
only ride."
"And pay." amended Allerton. "We
talked this over before at Waver's
house and at vour office. I think I
called attention to the fact that the
people were beginning to expect a consideration
for such valuable property
as franchises."
"They expect a private car for a
nickel." clnlmed Sledge. "We need
franchise legislation."
"It's a dangerous thing to tackle,"
objected ATlerton. "The voters are bei
ginning to have ideas about such
things."
"That's why we have to work quick,'?
, Sledge iufonned hiin.
I "What do you want?" asked Allerton.
"Fifty year franchises?free."
"Good Lord!" exclaimed Allertoq.
\ "Why, Sledge, the man who would propose
that might Just as well retire from
politics forever."
"Sure!" agreed Sledge.
The senator stopped, with a shock,
and reflected.
"The street cur interests in the state
; are largo, that's a fact," he acknowl|
edged.
I "Great game," approved Sledge. "I
; want stock all over the Btate. You'd
, better invest."
"It might be attractive," considered
tho senator. "How much stock do you
think I should secure?"
i "Million."
i gnnm-i ntii it
he was to private and personal discussions
involving comfortable figures,
was startled at the sound of that word.
"That listens very cheerfully," he
conceded. "Do you suggest that I?buy
up?that amount of stock for myself in
the various street car companies of the
state or that myself nnd friends should
club together for that amount?"
"Hundred thousand extra for them,"
responded Sledge with the promptness
of n man who has done all his figuring
beforehand.
Allerton spent some minutes in quiet
thought.
"There's the legal business, too,"
Sledge reminded bim.
"That's so." agreed Allerton. "An attorney
who Is also a large stockholder
could control that clientage. Suppose I
sec Buckley about this? Send him in,
will you?"
Appreciating tho couveuleucp of having
no witnesses to conversation
which so intimately concern the serving
of the public. Sledge loafed out
> and stood nonchalantly over the table.
The five men looked up at him keenly,
but Sledge was staring Into Cap Dlgglesby's
hand. Buckley finished bis
deal and glanced up again. lie Immediately
arose.
"Take my hand, will you. Sledge?'
he bogged, and lie removed Sledge's

I cards. "Buckley's too all fired lucky,
j and I think he plays crooked myself."
"House committee!" yelled Franchise
Walters. "That's unclubllke language."
Sledge looked at his cards and put in
chips and drew and bet with the air of
a man who is confirmed in the opinion
that the general average will "get" g

the (Two branches of drape vines tf
om That on the left was properly pruned
icy
The habits of growth and fruit
bearing of the bunch grape make ii
r(*l" easy to prune and the work can bt
iea* done much more systematically thai
with most other fruits. Furthermore
'on. jt wiu stand Very severe pruning with
C it. out injury. The fruit 1* borne on new
e is shoots from the preceding year's
? to growth and unless the' vine is con
ood tinually cut back, the fruiting aree
will become farther removed from tht
I main stem each year and will produce
I long, naked cane's, which serve nc
! purpose other than to convjy planl
j food to the more remote fruit-bearing
. parts. Moreover, if the vine is left tc
' itself, more fruit will form than tin
and plant can properly develop. The im
ffln portant objects in pruning, then, are
to get the most bearing wood in the
smallest space and to limit the bear
' Ing wood according to the ability ol
the vine to produce well developed
fruit. Not infrequently vines are al
lowed to retain too much bearing wood
and there is a consequent waste ol
me energy in the production of manj
a?e small, inferior bunches. For best re
bed suits, our common varieties moro than
jmd four years old should be-pruned so as
to bear hot mor^_tUan from seven
to one hundred clusters.

Securely tied to the wires, they forn;
* the permanent trunks of the vine.
1 In the third year, select two _ strong
* canes coming out near the extremity
j of each trunk and train them along
i , the wires in opposite directions to
3 j form arms. Then shorten them bacl;
s to a length of two, three, or four feet,
> | this depending on the vigor of the
t vine. All other canes are cut off cIom
; j to the trunk.
> Pruning in the fourth and subs* V
3 i quent years consists in cutting back
! new "canes to two buds or entirely rei
I newing the arms by cutting them out
i . and training new canes to take their
- places. It is not always possible to
t renew an arm, because of the probl
able lack of a strong cane to take its
! place. On the other hand, the pracl
lice of cutting back canes to two
t buds, continued a long time, will
r cause a thick, objectionable mass of
spurs to accumulate along the arms,
