Many of Howell's players have been in the game for four or five years, while most of the Pinckney boy? are seeing their first season of high school base bail. The feature of all the games so far is the great stick work of the team, neithar left hand or right hand pitching seems to bother the boys.

MAY 14th NOTE FULL MISSTATEMENTS .Measures Taken by Great Britain Against German Trade Have Coat No Neutral Life, It la Claimed. The Guveruor'b Mother's Day proclamation says in part: The mothers of every country are more important than armies and munitiouii of war. The mothers are the source of civilisation. To oar mothers we owe our patriotism our religion, our holiest aspirations. It is especially fitting in the year nineteen sixteen that we pay tribute to the Mothers of America. Let the boys and. girls and the grown-ups, who are away from home on Mothers' Day, write a letter of gratitude to Mother. Let those who are home meet Mother with a smile, a kiss and a handful of flowers. Recite to her the prayer she taught you at the bedside. Therefore, I, Woodbridge N. Ferris, ask that the people of Michigan set apart the second Sunday in May (the 14th) as Mothers' Day. In obedience to a Resolution by the United States Congress, I ask the people of Michigan to display on this day the United States flag on all government and public buildings, at their homes or other suitable places, "as a public expression of their love and reverence for the Mothers of our country." As far as possible let parents In their homes and both young and old in public meetings discuss the theme of Mother with that enthusiasm and sincerity which charac BAND OF VILLISTAS Kills Porty-Two and Wounding Many Other —No American Casualties Reported London—Declining to comment on the purely American German questions involved in the German reply to the American note on submarine warfare, Lord Robert Cecil, minister of war trade and parliamentary undersecretary for foreign affairs, in behalf of the foreign office gave the Associated Press a statement dealing with the charges against Great Britain and Germany's avowed desire for peace.. The reply of the German government to the American note of April 20 respecting submarine warfare is not a communc&Uon upon which any general comment can properly be made in this country, as the questons at is- •ue concern the United States and i Germany, and any interference by a 11 t e r i z e a a11 l o v a l Americans." third party would be presumptous. i * — — — — — — — — — — — Since however the German note con-1 ~~ tains certain misstatements of facts MAJOR HOWZE ROUTES respecting the actions of Great Britain the following observations may not he thought out of place.

EIGHT SINN FEIN REBELS ARE SHOT TO DEATH FAIL TO CHECK THE FRENCH Twe Others Were Given Life Imprisonment by Court Martial They Are in a Fair Way Now to Drive Invadera From Their Strongest Position!. Dublin—It was officially announced that John McBride was shot. He was the eighth leader of the Sinn Fein rebellion to suffer death by sentence of court martial. The sentences of Thomas Hunter and William Cosgrave, who were sentenced to death with Major McBride, were commuted to life imprisonment. Joseph Plunkett one of the leaders in the rebellion, was married an hour before he was put to death to Miss Giffard, sister of Mrs. Thomas - MacDonagh< widow of one of the first rebels who' was put to death after court-martial. James M. Sullivan, former American minister to the Dominican republic, who has been imprisoned In Dublin castle for several days on the charge of having been implicated in the Irish rebellion, probably will be released It is said by officials. Edward L. Adams, American consul in Dublin, has been active in behalf of Sullivan. He has made several trips to the castle and held a number of conferences with high officials. The present favorable attitude of these officials apparently is due to the efforts of Mr. Adams. STATE NEWS IN BRIEF.

Niagara Tails, Ont—A Canadian machine gun has been placed near # the approach to the lower steel arch bridge by a squad under command of Major Vanderslys, of the Ninetyeighth battalion. The gun is well hidden behind a barricade of sand, bags. The military authorities refuse to discuss the reason for placing the «am st the bridge. I London—Desperate efforts by the Germans to check th* French counter offensive at Verdun h&xe failed, according to military experts here and in Paris, who declare the defenders are now in a fair way for driving the : invaders from their strongest positions to the north and northwest of the fortress. Official reports from j Berlin and Paris tell of small gains I by both sides in the region of Dead ! Man hill, they are interpreted as show- | ing a situation decidedly in favor of i the French. Berlin's admission of a i continuance or strong French attacks is in Itself regarded as an acknowledgment of gradual weakening on the , part of the Germans. ; The Paris statement says the Germans strongly attacked the French J positions north of Hill 304, but were j repulsed along the whole front, sxjoept at one or two points in the ad- ! vanced trenches. | Berlin's statement tells of the capjture of "several French trenches [southeast of Haucourt," evidently the same trenches that are mentioned in | the Paris statement. j Berlin also says that reported attacks against the German position west of Dead Man hill broke down.

VILLISTAS RAID TWO TEXAS TOWNS KILLING FOUR AMERICAN SOLDIERS AND WOUNDING AND CAPTURING OTHERS. U. S. MEN IN FIERCE BATTLE A Body of Seventy Mounted Mexican Bandits Forded the Rio Grande and Raided Glenn Springs. Alpine, Tex— Villa bandits, some 70 in number, forded the Rio Grande and sweeping 15 mile* inland, on American soil, raided the little settlement of Glenn Springs and attacked a detachment of American cavalry, consisting of nine men of troop A, the Fourteenth cavalry. Three troopers and a little 10-year-old boy were killed, two cavalrymen were wounded and another is missing. He is believed to be a prisoner of the bandits who are now fleeing southward into Coahuila, Mexico. Two American citizens, J. Deemer, and a man named Compton, according to reports received here, were carried across the Rio Grande and reports have it that their throats were cut. A posse of 50 citizens of Marrathon are in pursuit of the Villistas. The missing trooper is Private Roscoe Tyree. The little boy is the son of Compton. He was deaf and dumb and bandits are thought to have killed him because he could not answer their questions. The two wounded troopers, Privates J. Birck and Frank Defree, were brought here badly wounded. Birch's body was filled with small brass pieces of tacks fired from a shotgun. Defree was burned about head and shoulders. In a little adobe house, nine cavalry men made their flight for life against the 70 or more Vlllista bandits at Glenn Springs. A hail of shot poured for more than two hours into the single window of the adobe house, but the cavalry men kept up a steady rate fire in defiant answer. Then the Mexicans' leader ordered fireballs to be thrown on the roof, thickly thatched with candaL abra. The blazing weed tortured the soldiers below and burnt their heads and bodies. Smashing the door, the troopers broke for the open, firing as they ran. Two were shot and killed as they fled. One is missing and it is believed he is dead. Another was killed as he tried to climb through a window. According to the story brought here the Mexican bandits first attacked a store and one or two houses in Boquillas, where they made Deemer and Compton prisoners and then sped 15 miles northward to make their attack on Glenn Springs, which is fringed by rugged hills. At Glenn Springs they wrecked a wax factory belonging to William Ellis, his store and residence, besides one or two other small buildings. SAYS ENGLAND KNEW SECRETS OF GERMAN NOTE An Eminent German Accutes England of Stealing Dlplomatio Code Secrets. New York—"The British government knew the contents of Germany's reply to the United States at least 12 hours before the American state department did.'1 The charge was made here by an eminent German who is close to the German embassy. He went even further, saying: "For many months Downing street, which 1B in possession of the American secret diplomatic code, has had advance information as to the co^ tents of every official and private message exchanged between Berlin and Washington. "Ambassador Gerard in Berlin knows this. Every attache at the American embassy knows it, and the German government knows it. Moreover, it is moderately certain that the American state department knows it, for It has received—not once, but repeatedly — communications frnm Ambassador Gerard urgently requesting the adoption of a new code." As an illustration of how well posted the British government was ox the contents of the German reply to President Wilson's ultimatum on tub. marine warfare, my informant point ed out that slmultsneonsly with the publication in the morning papers Jn this country* there was also published a London dispatch announcing the decision of the British government to make four Important concessions relaxing to a great extent the blockade which plays such a vital part in the German reply.

East Lansing—That there Is a strong movement on foot for a redirection of country life can hardly be gainsaid at this time when farm bureaus, co-operative buying and selling organizations, rural credit societies, and many other similar associations are being fostered to bring more full to the farmer and fanner's wife the just returns of honest toil. It is likewise true that rapid development in this direction can hardly be expected, for an appreciation of the problems and a betterment of conditions will only come as result of a comparatively slow process of education. Of all the agencies that make for education along this line, especially with the farmers of the future, the teachers in the country schools of Michigan stand out as most prominent. The requirement of a recent act of the legislature that agriculture be taught in rural schools brought great consternation to a certain class of rural teachers. Many of these were not country bred and few of them had any sympathies with farm people, let alone any knowledge of their problems. None of the teach, ers felt that they had time for an added subject. But gradually the light has been creeping in on this new problem of education. Teachers who are prepared are finding that the supposed burden is really a lift, that it vital, izes the interest of the students in all other subjects. And it is generally believed that the rural school teaching of the future will turn about agriculture as a center. How natural a development this is for education in a region primarily agricultural!' The wonder is that the vision has been so tardy in coming. The teaching of agriculture has been carried on in rural schools for two or three years now, and yet none of the teachers feel over-confldent of their ability. In fact it is the teachers who have been on the job who best realize their deficiencies. It is freely predicted that during the coming summer several hundred rural teachers—or would-be rural teachers —will avail themselves of the oppor. tunity which the Michigan Agricultural College offers of taking work in the summer session, June 19th to July 28th, designed particularly for their needs. The Agricultural College at Lansipg is admirably fitted to give this instruction with its corps of trained specialists along every line as well as college farms, orchards, forest nurseries, dairy herds, experimental plots, and other necessary demonstration features. The very atmosphere of the state college has an invigorating rural tone. There will be other features in addition to the subject matter presented which will give added value to the summer session. Among these are lectures dealing with phases of rural life, conferences of rural leaders in boys' and girls' club work, courses in rural play, rural organization, and many others. In fact the value of this summer work at M. A. C. is so generally understood that the State Board of Education has author, ized the state normals to give credit for work done at the M. A. C summer BChool in agricultural and other subjects. Not only will the college offer a special course for rural teachers this coming summer, but one will also be given for teachers of agriculture in county normals. This course will be distinctly of college grade and will consider experiments, apparatus, and home project work, and other vital problems to the end that these teachers may better instruct others who are planning to teach in rural schools. The whole aim of both of these courses is to place at the disposal of those who feel the need, the splendid equipment which the state has provided for agricultural education- The Agricultural college has special interest in the affairs of rural communities d is in a position to render valuable assistance in the education of the hoys and girls of the country. ^ - • ' • - • ' ITEMS OF INTEREST The Pere Marquette depot at Alto, valued at $2,000. was totally destroyed by fire.

I doubt very much if 1 am the person to give it to you." "Why do you doubt it? Isn't it a part of your job?" "Not always. I am not your conscience keeper, Brouillard. Don't misunderstand me. I may have lived a year longer than you have, but you nave lived more—a great deal more. That fact might be set aside, but there Is another: In the life of every man there is some one person who knows, who understands, whose word for that man is the one only fitting word of inspiration. That is what I mean when I say that I am not your conscience keeper. Do I make it clear?" "Granting your premises—yea. Go on." "I will. We'll paste that leaf down and turn another. Though I can't counsel you, I can still be your faithful^, friend in the East. accuser. You have committed a great «ln, Brouillard, and you are still committing it. If you haven't been the 1 leader In the mad scramble for riches here In this abandoned city, you have been only a step behind the leaders. And you were the one man who should have been like CaeBar's wife, the one whose example counted for most." Brouillard got up and thrust out his band across the desk. "You are a man, Castner—and that is better than being a priest," he asserted soberly. "I'll take back all the spiteful things I've been saying. I'm down under the hoofs of the horses, and it's only human nature to want to pull somebody else down. You are one of the few men In Mirapolis whose presence has been a blessing Instead of a curse—who hasn't had a purely selfish greed to satisfy." Again Castner shook his head. "There hasn't been much that I could do. Brouillard, It Is simply dreadful— the hard, reckless, half-demoniac spirit of this placet There is nothing to appeal to; there Is no room or time for anything but the mad money chase or the still madder dissipation In which t h e poor wretches seek to forget I can only try here and there to drag some poor soul out of the fire at the last moment, and It makes me s i c k - sick a t heart!" "You musn't look at it that way," said Brouillard, suddenly turning comforter. "You have bjfltt % i n g good work and a lot of ft-«MM9> tban any three ordinary m a otvAMMftt up under. I hatrmt « * WpoftH »seing and truly I have And-ril My this: "If I had only yoor courage . . . but it's no I'm in too deep. I can't see any 'farther ahead than a man born blind. There is one end for which I have been striving from the very first, and it is still unattained. I'm past help now. I have reached a point at which I'd pull the whole world down in ruins to see t h a t end accomplished." The young missionary took another turn up and down the room and then came back to the desk for his h a t At t h e leave-taking he said the only helpful word he could think of. "Go to your confessor, Brouillard— your real confessor—and go all the more readily if that one happens to be a good woman^—whom you love and t r u s t They often see more dearly than we do—the good women. Try it; and let me help where a man can help." For a long hour after Castner went away Brouillard sat at his desk, flghtfng as those fight who see the cause l o s t and who know they only make the ruin more complete by struggling on. Cortwright'i guess had found its mark. He was loaded to break with "front feet" and options and "corners;*' In the least speculative period he had bought and mortgaged and bought again, plunging recklessly with the sole object of wringing another han- 4red thooaand out of drying a g a t e * the tlssa whan BtvJd / gale should need It. At first the undertaking Beemed easily possible. But with the drying of the speculative sponge it became Increasingly difficult. More and more he had been compelled to buy and hold until now the bare attempt to unlex 1 woul i have started the panic which was only waiting for some hedging seller to fcre the train. The sweat stood out on his forehead when a pad of telegraph bl; hand and began to WJ Painstakingly he composed ring often to the nott-s in In gr at drops <:*<•. flni. n y drew uiis u; ler his :to a ni ;asage. it referhis fieldwords neatly defined handbook, and printing th in his accurate, clear. writing. When it was finished 'm translated it laboriously into the dt :>artiD nt code. But after the copy was made and signed he did not ring at once for a messenger. Instead, he put the two, the original and the cipher, under a pape'r weight and sat glooming at them searching blindly for some alternative to the final act of treachery which would be consummated in the sending of the wire. Since, by reason of Cortwright's tarnperlngs with the smelter people and the railroad, the "Little Susan" had become a locked treasure vault, the engineer, acting upon his own initiative, had tried the law. As soon as he had ascertained that David Massingale had been given sixty days longer to live, solely because the buccaneers chose to take his mine rather than hia money, Brouillard had submitted the facts In the case to a trusted lawyer officer In the field, he had restated the facts—farts doubtless well known in the department—the probability that congress would Intervene and the hold the opposition was gaining by the bus pension ot the work on the dam. IT the work could be pushed energetically and at once, there was a possibility that the opposition would become dls couraged and voluntarily withdraw. Would the department place the men and the means instantly at hia disposal ? "If I were the honest man J am supposed to be, that is precisely the message I ought to send," he mused reflectively. "It is only as the crooked devil in possession of me will drive me to nullify the effort and make It of no effect that it becomes a crime; that and the fact that I can never be sure that the Cortwright gang hasn't the inside track and will not win out In spite of all efforts. That Is the touchstone of the whole degrading business. I am afraid Cortwright has the inside track. If I could only get a little clear-eighted daylight on the damn able tangle!" H P CHAPTER XX C H Love's Crucible This hope had pulled In two like a frayed cord. Massingale must pay the bank or lose all. Until he had obtained possession of the promissory notes there would be no crevice in which to drive any legal wedge. And even then, unless some pressure could be brought to bear upon the grafters to make them disgorge, there was no chance of Masslngale's recovering more than his allotted two-thirds of the stock; in other words, he would still stand committed to the agreement by which he had bound4*hlmself to make the grafters a present, in fee simple, of one-third of his mine. Brouillard had written one more letter to the lawyer. In It he had asked how David Massingale could be unassailably reinstated in his rights as the eole owner of the "Little Susan." The answer had come promptly and it was explicit "Only by the repayment of such sums as had been actually expended in the reorganization and on the betterments—for the modernizing machinery and improvements—and the voluntary surrender, by the other parties to the agreement of the stock in dispute," the lawyer had written; and Brouillard had Bmiled at the thought of Cortwright voluntarily surrendering anything which was once well within the grasp of his pudgy hands. Falling to start the legal wedge, Brouillard had dipped—also without consulting Massingale—into the mat* ter of land titles. The fLittle 8usan" was legally patented under the land laws, and Masslngale's title, if the mine were located upon government land, was without a flaw. But on a former reclamation project Brouillard had been brought in contact with some of the curious title litigation growing out of the old Spanish grants; and In at least one instance he had seen a government patent Invalidated thereby. As a man in reasonably close touch with his superiors in Washington, the chief of construction knew that there was a Spanish grant involvement which had at one time threatened to at least delay the Niquoia project. How it had been settled finally he did not know; but after the legal failure he had written to a man—a college classmate of his own—in the bureau of land statistics, asking for data which would enable him to locate exactly the Niquola- touching boundaries of the great Coronida g r a n t To this letter no reply had as yet been received. Brouillard had cause to know with what slowness a simple matter of information can oose out of a department bureau. The letter—which, after all, might contain nothing helpful—lingered on the way, and the crisis, the turning point beyond which there could be no redemption rn a revival of the speculative erase, had arrfred, Brouillard took up the draft of the Washington telegram and read It over. He was cooler now, and he saw that tt was only aa tt came from the hand of a traitor, who could and would deliberately wrack the train of erenta tt Might aat hi motion, that H beoasaa a WMttag at th* omMiiitiM i Obeying a sudden impulse, Brouillard thrust the two copies of the telegram under the paper-weight again, sprang up, put on his hat, and left the building. A few minutes later he was on the porch of the stuccoed villa in the Quadjenai road and was saying gravely to the young woman who had been reading In the hammock: "You are staying too closely at home. Get your coat and hat and walk with me up to the 'Little Susan.' It will do you good." The afternoon was waning and the sun, dipping to the horizon, hung like a huge golden ball over the yellow immensities of the distant Buckskin as they topped the final ascent in the steep trail and went to sit on the steps of the deserted home cabin at the mine. For a time neither spoke, and the stillness of the air contributed something to the high-mountain silence, which was almost oppressive. Work had been stopped In the mine at the end of the previous week, Massingale declaring, morosely, that until he knew whose ore he was digging he would dig no more. Presumably there was a watchman, but if so he was invisible to the two on the cabin step, and the high viewpoint was theirs alone. "How did you know that I have been wanting to come up here once more before everything is changed?" said the girl at length, patting the roughly-hewn log step as If it were a sentient thing to feel the caress. "I didn't know it," Brouillard denied. "I only knew that I wanted to get out of Gomorrah for a little while, to come up here with you and get the reek of the pit out of my nostrils." "I know," she rejoined, with the quick comprehension which never failed him. "It is good to be out of it. to be up here where we can look down upon it and see it in its true perspective— as a mere little impertinent blot on the landscape. It's only t h a t after all, Victor. See how the great dam— your work—overshadows it." "That is one of the things I hoped I might be able to see if I came here with you," he returned slowly. "But I can't get your point of view, Amy. I shall never be able to get it again." "You did have it once," she asserted. "Or rather, you had a better one of your own. Has Gomorrah changed it?" "No, not Gomorrah. I could shut the waste-gates and drown the place tomorrow for all that Mirapolis, or anything in it, means to me. But something has changed the point of view for me past mending, since that first day when we sat here together and looked down upon the beginning of the reclamation construction camp—before Gomorrah was ever thought of." "I know," she said again. "But that dreadful city is responsible. It has robbed us all, Victor; but you more than any, I'm afraid." "No," he objected. "Mirapolis has been only a means to an end. The thing that has changed my point of view—my entire life—is love, as I have told you once before." "Oh, no," she protested gently, rising to take her old place, with her back to the porch post and her hands behind her. And then, still more gently: "That is almost like sacrilege. Victor, for love is sacred." "I can't help i t Love baa made a great scoundrel of me. Amy; a criminal, if man's laws were aa closely meshed aa God's." "I can't believe that," ahe dissented loyally. "It is true. I have betrayed my t r u s t Cortwright will make good is all of his despicable schemes Congress will intervene and the Niquoia project will be abandoned." "Tell me," she begged briefly; and. since he waa staring fixedly at the scored slopes of Jack's mountain, ha did not aee that ahe caught her Up between her teeth to atop fta trenv bling. "Aa you know, I had a debt to pay before I could any: 'COBB* ttttlo girt let* go and got married.' 8o 1 baoaaae * atonkartday m Cortvrigfct't power company, knowing perfectly well when L consented that the hundred thousand dollars' wor'h ot stock he gave me waa a bribe—the price of my alienee and noninterference- with hia gTe-edy schemes." "But you didn't mean to keep it; you know you couldn't keep It!" she broke in; and now he did not need to look to know that her \ii>a were trembling piteously. "1 did keep it." She dropped quickly on the utep beside him and a sympathetic hand crept into his. "You kept it until the unhappy day when you gave it to ray father, and he —and he threw it away." She was crying softly, but hia attempt to comfort her waa almost mechanical. "Don't cry about the money. It had the devil's thumb-prints on it, and he merely claimed his own and got it." Then he went on as one determined to leave nothing untold. "Cortwright had bought me, and I served him as only a man in my position could serve him. 1 became a promoter, a 'booster.' with the others. There have been times when a word from me would havo pricked the bubble. I haven't said the word; I am not saying it now. If J Bhould say it I'd lose at a single stroke all that I have been fighting for. And I am not a good loser, Amy." For once the keen, apprehending per ception failed. "I don't understand," she said, speaking as if she were groping in thick darkness. "I mean I don't understand the motive that could—" He turned to her in dumb astonishment. "I thought I had been making it plain as I went along. You wanted something—you needed it—therefore it must be purchased for you. And the curious part of the beaetment is that I have known all along that I waa killing your love for me. If it wasn't quite dead before, it will die now—now that I have told you how I am flinging the last vestiges of uprightness and honor to the winds." "But how?" she queried. "You haven't told me." "With the dam completed before congress could intervene, Mirapolis would, of course, be quite dead and ready for its funeral, But if the Cortwright people industriously insist that the spending of another million or two of government money is only another plum for the city and its merchants and industries, that, notwithstanding the renewed activities, the work will still stop short of completion and the city will be saved by legislative enactment. the innocent sheep may be made to bleed again and the wolves will escape." She shuddered and drew, a little apart from him on the log Btep. "But your part in this horrible plot Victor?" she asked. "It is as simple as it Is despicable. In the first place, I am to set the situation before the department in such a light as to make it clearly a matter of public policy to take advantage of the present Mirapolitan crisis by pushing the work vigorously to a conclusion. After thus turning on the Bpigot of plenty, I am expected to crowd the pay rolls and at the same time to hold back on the actual progress of the work. That is all—except that I am to keep my mouth shut." "But you can't, you can't!" she cried. Then, in a passionate outburst: "If you should do such a thing as that, it wouldn't kill my love—I can't say that any more; but it would kill me—I shouldn't want to live!" He looked around at her curiously, as if he were holding her at arm's length. "Shall I do what you would have me do, Amy? Or shall I do what Is best for you?" The opposing queries were as impersonal as the arm's-length gate. The tears had burned out of the steadfast eyes which were resting, with the shining soul looking out through them, upon the crimsoning snow peaks of the distant TImanyonla. "How little you know the real love!" she said Blowly. He got up stiffly and helped her to her feet and together they stood looki n g down upon the city of the plain, lying now under the curved, sunset shadow cast by the mighty, inbending sweep of the great dam. • • • • • • • Monsieur Poudrecaulx Bongraa, rotund, smiling and reached and waxed to a broad burlesque of second-empire fierceness, looked in vain among hia dinner guests that evening for the chief of the reclamation service, and Brouillard's absence held a small disappointment for the Frenchman. Rumor, the rumor which waa never quiet and which could never be traced conclusively to its source, was again busy with exciting hints of a new era of prosperity about to dawn, and Bongraa had hoped to drop his own little plummet of inquiry into the reclamation service chief.

Look out for dahlias, gladiolus and other rank-growing plants that are likely to be blown down by the wind and stake them. Pick the pansiea and nasturtiums every day if you want to have plenty of bloom. When the lilacs have finished blooming all the seed clusters should be cut away. It is fatal to some plants to fertilize them with rich manures when the ground is very dry. Never allow roses to remain on the bush until the petals fall. If the seed Is allowed to develop on the lilac It generally has few flowers except every other year. The best way to kill weeds is to pull them up by hand. Do not allow them to get ahead of you. Look out for the red bug and other enemies of the rose. An excellent spray for the rose bushes is made of one-half pound of laundry soap melted in hot water to which is added one cupful of kerosene. When thts comes to a boil, use about one part to fifteen parts of water. Lawn clippings make an excellent mulch for bushes, shrubs and large plants. Tea roses like to have the soil about their roots cool and moist. Grass clippings are good for that purpose. Spread the grass over the bed to a depth of two or three inches. As soon as it withers work it into the soil when as it decays it will act as a I fertilizer. Apply fresh clippings ' Makes for Beauty. after the soil is stirred, and let the rain drive it to the roots. Dig a strip 15 or 18 inches wide across the bed or border and then rake it, beginning at the bottom of the trench and fining the soil from t h e subsoil to the top. Continue this throughout the length of the bed, and then you will have worked the soil perfectly. To insure a succession of blooming periods, do not sow all your annuals at the same time, nor your blooming bulbs. Wait two or three weeks. Start cosmos as early as possible, and at the end of April plant in the open two to four feet apart, for they need plenty of room. They want light, rich soil, and can stand a great deal of pinching back to keep them stocky. It is said that the quickest growing hardy vine is t h e Kudzu vine—pueraria Thunbergiana—which often grows 40 feet in a season. It needs winter protection as it sometimes winterkills. Just as soon as the frost is gone, plant the Madeira vine, it is propagated by tubers. It grows rapidly, has thick, waxy leaves, and its flowers— drifts of creamy snow—cover the plant when in bloom, The finest example of what this plant can do was seen on a second-story porch, turning a prosaic second-story fiat porch into a Juliet bowpr of beauty.

Cracked eggs, the practical studies of these investigators have established, are the cause of great trouble and loss to the egg industry from producer to consumer. Every time an egg is handled on the farm or elsewhere It is likely to get shell damage. Occasionally the hen cracks an egg, but that is seldom. The farmer cracks some on the farm, and by the time he has hauled them to the country store or to the shipper investigators find that approximately 4 per cent are cracked and one-tenth of one per cent mashed or leaking. If the country storekeeper rehandles the eggs and hauls them to the egg TRANSPLANTING SEEDLINGS HELPS IN FLOWER GROWING Don't drain the soil before the moisture of winter and spring has drained from ft, so that it will pulverise perfectly. If the soil drops from the spade in moist, soggy lumps, be sure it is not ready to work. As the frost leaves the soil dig in the manure-mulch placed last fall about the shrubs, roses and hardy perennials. If there be no winter mulch about such plants, be sure to apply some kinr1 I fertilizer to them. A good coat of bone meal in the absence of well-rotted manure will serve. Scatter it about the base of the plants As soon as seedlings can be conveniently handled, transplant in pots or boxes; give them plenty of room on all sides. Transplanting carefully by hand is the way professional gardeners do their transplanting, but a forked ftick can be used if carefully handled Shade from the bright sun for a few days -and water carefully. If the weather is advanced, give the newly transplanted plants plenty of air. In this way they are hardened off until they will be able to stand full exposure in the open ground. Care must be exercised with all plants removed fiom conservatories, hotbeds or from plants raised in boxes or pots in the house <z ;•?

If, however, the country storekeeper sends the cases of eggs to a nearby shipper by local freight, the total of cracked eggs has risen at the end of the journey to approximately 7 per cent, and 1 per cent more are mashed or leaking. The damage when eggs reach the big cities after a haul of 1,000 miles or more will depend upon the quality of the egg packing the way the lot is placed in the car. G00O POULTRY LICE POWDER and the way the railroad hauls the car, especially when switching. When the eggs are shipped in car lots and both shippers and carriers do their work well, transit damage Is kept down to as little as 1 per cent, Including cracked, mashed, and leaking eggs. Approximately one egg in two cases gets maahed or becomes a leaker on the railroad trip. But when eggs are shipped in less than car lota, the transit damage m generally multiplied many times. Cracked Eggs Lower Prices. Because there are so many lightly cracked eggs and because they will bring a lower price if put In cases by themselves, moat shippers have got into the habit of including about 5 per cent of cracked eggs in the casea of supposedly sound eggs. Very often the receiver blames the railroad for all the light as well as the heavy damage in the case; a r ^ since the inclusion of the 5 p^r cent of lightly damaged ege? 1-as L^corne generally known, i+ cr^^uanly is supposed that it i^ Uieae eggs which, being weak, are further damaged in transit. The investigators of the department, however, find that these light cracks, or even dents, if well packed, loaded, and transported, are only one-third more liable to damage than are the sound eggs similarly handled. If the cases are well packed and shipped In well-loaded car lots, the additional liability to damage is only about onefifth of an egg per case. From the viewpoint of transportation alone the 5 per cent of lightly cracked eggs appears to be comparatively unimportant. Cracked Eggs Cause Serious Loss tf Stored. From the viewpoint of cold storage, however, even lightly cracked eggs are of great importance. The Investigators find that about 50 per cent of the err eked eggs are rotten by November, generally because of a growth of mold. Sometimes the moldy crack resting against the filler infects it and the egg in the next cell becomes moldy. Each leaking egg causes about two eggs besides itself to rot. On the other hand, good early spring eggs with sound, clean shells show less than 1 per cent loss from decay by November. In other words, six eggs in every dozen cracked eggs will rot, while only one sound egg in 12 dozen will rot, all other conditions being equal. The cracked egg^are a heavy economic loss. Loss $94 Per Carload. Eggs at the eastern seaboard during the early spring are commonly worth about 20 cents a dozen. Carrying charges, Including insurance, are usually about 2 cents a dozen. Therefore, the nine cracked eggs which are spoiled by November show a total loss, not only of their value when they were stored, which was about 15 cents, but also the carrying charges, or a total of 16½ cents. About ten cracked eggs out of the 19, on the average, will not spoil, but are much lower in grade when coming out of storage than the sound eggs. They will be sold for about 33 per cent less than the sound, good eggs, making, on a 25-cent basis, another loss of 7 cents, or a total loss due to cracked eggs alone of 23¼ cents a case, or about $94 on a carload of 400 cases. This loss of 23½ cents a case, which is believed to be a conservative estimate, quickly mounts up to imposing figures when the vast number of cases of eggs that are stored is taken into consideration. In 45 cold-storage houses alone, according to the report of the American Warehousemen's association, about 3,750,000 cases of eggs were in storage on July 1, 1915. If these cases suffered the average damage, in these warehouses alone there would be a loss t6 t h e country of When Housework Drags Keeping house Is hard enough when welL The woman who h a s a bad hack, blue, nervous spells, and dizzy headaches, has a hard lot, for the family tasks never let up.

Fashion's Demand for Full Skirta Satisfied, With Arrangement That Is Highly Artistic—In Shaped and Plaited Basques. The sketch shows a Beer model which comes under the heading "dressy." This is a very new and original design and here you see the slightly raised waist line. Nearly all the Beer models of this season are immensely wide at the hem of the skirt, and tbe dress I have fuJ tolds and did nut look unduly "bunchy." The coatee which accompanied this costume had one of the new, very full, basques, and this basque was attached to the upper portion of the coat under a band of lovely oxidized steel embroidery. The same embroidery formed a high collar which framed the face and neck and there were hands on the side pockets which appeared on the full skirt. The buttons on the coat were balls of cut steel and the lining was a handsome brocaded satin whirh showed bright orange designs on a dull blue ground. Shaped and plaited basques axe making their appearance on very many of the new tailored coats. In some cases two basques are introduced, one slightly Bhorter than the other, and these are effective on tall figures. Of course a basque coat does not give the long, graceful curve which was a marked feature of last season's models. We mise the princess outline; indeed we miss it so much that some of our leading dressmakers seem inclined to return to it for favorite clients. It is all very well to follow the fashions to a reasonable extent, but when It comes to accepting an outline which takes away from the grace of the figure it is time to call "halt." It really is true that the more exclusive Parisiennes never accept a style which is not becoming to them Individually. They demand, and obtain, modifications which will make the coat or dress thoroughly comfortable and becoming. It is only the weak ones of the earth who allow themselves to be driven this way and that by sensational dressmakers whc care little about beauty but who are always seeking to advertise themselves. The Latest Costume Tailleur In Navy Blue Serge With Embroidery In Oxidized Steel Thread. sketched was no exception to this rule, writes Idalia de VillierB, Paris correspondent of the Boston Globe.

Taupe-colored straw turbans are cropping out in multitudes, these days. The special providence that watches over headgear has evidently decided that taupe hats shall be "the thing" this spring. The hats are in turban or small sailor shapes, excessively chic in line and poise, and there is only a hint of trimming—a smart quill, a plaited ribbon cocade or a bead or leaf ornament. Millinery ribbons are being doubled over strips of a resilient stiffening material, noncrushable and not affected by the dampness, and the new hat bows and cocades are especially crisp and correct thereby.

( A n n a A. Gordon, President N a t i o n a l W. C. T. U. and One of the National Prohibition A m e n d m e n t Commission.) In order to win national constitutional prohibition two-thirda of the members of the United States senate and house of representatives must vote In favor of a bill referring the question to the various states for ratification through their legislatures' When 36 of our 48 etates through a majority vote of their legislatures ratify the measure thus referred it is adopted and becomes a part of the United States Constitution. Such a prohibitory amendment is surely in harmony with the spirit of the Constitution of the United States, which, as its preamble declares, was established "to promote the general welfare and secure the blessing of liberty to ourselves and our posterity. Nineteen commonwealths have already gained the high, dry ground of statewide prohibition. Six states— Nebraska, South Dakota, Montana, California, Idaho and Michigan—vote on the question on November 7. Idaho in the endeavor to change its statutory prohibitory law to constitutional prohibition. The territory of Alaska also closes a prohibition campaign on November 7. If we can win this additional prohibition territory and call a roll of 26 prohibition states we shall be within ten Btates of our national goal. The fact that more than half the people and more than threequarters of the area of this country are under prohibitory laws Is assurance that we are fast nearlng national constitutional prohibition. All states will benefit by the amendment. All will still have power to go Just as far as they desire in prohibiting any phase of the liquor traffic and will have the aid which comes from a national policy. Our greatest difficulty today is the difference in policy between the nation's government and the prohibition states.

"Russia's finances rest upon the most solid foundation In the world," said Mr. Bark. "The economic prosperity of the Russian people is now greater than was ever conceived possible before the beginning of the war. There is nothing illusory or specious about Russia's prosperity. It rests upon the Incontrovertible fact of the Russian people's increased earnings and savings. When a year ago the savings banks showed a monthly increase In deposits of 50,000,000 rubles, it was regarded as phenomenal. But that was only the beginning."

Purely a Matter of Business, Which Every Farmer Should Recognl Well to Remember to Use the Ax With Care, iPreftircd by the LTrUted Stales DvpajrtznciiX of Agriculture.) A cash return for the wood grown on the farm woodlot is Just as possible aa a profit on other farm cropa. Farmers often lose sight of this fact. mainly because timber requires only a •small amount of labor but a long period of years to bring it to a marketable condition. Often, therefore, the owner is satisfied with an annual supply of dead firewood, and the woodlot becomes a harboring place for insect pests and a meager pasturage for roaming live stock. Yet improvement of the woodlot depends upon just a few simple principles which any farmer may learn aud practice. These are contained in a new farmers' bulletin, No. 711. published by the United States department of agriculture. Improvement of the woodlot begins with the cutting out of all dead and diseased timber. Then the mature merchantable trees should be removed, like any other farm crop, when conditions favor a sale. New trees Carnations and Cld-Fashioned Pinks Are Fine for the Hardy Garden. PLANT YOUR HARDY GARDEN NOW By E. VAN B E N T H U Y S E N . A h a r d ; garden is the garden for the busy woman. It will last for years and be a delight to her and to her neighbors with a very little care. Take a careful survey of your re- Sources and make a study of your own Individual problem. "Book taught" gardeners may be all right up to a certain limit, but one season's experiment along your own lines will give you an Insight Into plant life that, aside from being a most fascinating Study, will teach you more than years of reading. Those who wish to plant roses and Hot bother with them more than to prune and fertilize annually and keep the ground mellow about the plants Should plant hybrid perpetual roses. The hybrid perpetuals are the hardiest of roses and will stand more cold Weather than any other species. The following are desirable specimens: Anne de Diesbach, bright carmine; Baroness Rothschild, an exqulBlte pink; La France, blooms all Summer; Frau Karl Druschkl, snow White, has splendid buds and immense flowers, four to Sve inches across, and Is delightfully fragrant; General Jacqueminot, a popular rose of brilliant red; Paul Neyron, lovely dark pink; Grass an Teplitz, a strong, vigorous grower, of richest crimson; Killarney, both pink and white, are hardy, and Mrs. John Laing, a rose of delicious fragrance an J of a rich satiny pink color. A hardy border that is a triumph of beauty and has been enjoyed for years contains hollrhocks, phlox, larkspur, foxglove, Iris, eohunbfsas, pinks, and sunflowers. It tt not so expensive, Hgwes up about six cents per square loot, fcBJt arranged according to size i p i color makes a wonderful show- Hardy roses require ordinarily good garden soil, well enriched with wellrotted manure. Thev must have an open, sunny position clear of the roots of all trees and shrubs. It is well to prepare the bed a few days before planting to allow for settling. Everblooming roses should be planted 18 inches apart and the hybrid perpetuals two feet apart. Roses should be planted with the roots diverging and at, least nine inches below the surface of the ground, the soil made firm about them and then should be liberally watered. Hollyhocks succeed best In rich, well-drained soil, and should be lightly protected during the winter months with coarse straw or spruce boughs. Larkspur seed sown in the open ground early will produce flowering plants by the beginning of July, and will give a continuous succession ~f bloom from then until frost. It is excellent for cutting and very ornamental. It produces in a great variety of forms aud colors some of the most beautiful flowers in cultivation. AM varieties are easily cultivated and adaptable to most conditions, but in a soil deeply dug and well enriched with fine old manure, their blooms are the finest. Set from one and one half to two feet each way. Old-fashioned clove pink, and its more elegant relation, the carnation, flower so easily as an annual that it has attained a most popular position among garden plants. The beautiful flowers make an attractive display with their world of color, and are greatly to be desired as a table decoration and also as a border plant. Pinks grow easily from seed and come true to color. Sow out of doors when danger from frost is over. If the seed is sown early enough the perennials will bloom the first year. There are a great many other plants that are hardy and desirable, this is but a mere beginning. Choose the flowers you are fond of and the work will be more successful and more pleasant.

Second Growth White Oaks—Woodlot In Good Condition. should be planted !n the open spaces to grow up and fill In the forest canopy and encourage the growth of tall, 3traight timber. YVoodlots may be divided into two classes, each determined by the character of the stand. On one type, the trees are a second growth of approximately the same age and it Is found that undesirable species are crowding out valuable trees, the former should be cut to allow the unhampered 5rowth of the better quality timber. While timber taken out In this cutting will rarely pay directly for Us removal, the resulting enhancement In value of the remaining stand makes the work a jood Investment The presence of dead or dying tress in the stand, a very dense interlocked crown Cover, stems very slender In proportion to their height, or apparent stagnation in the height growth, all indicate that a thinning is needed. This usually is done when the stand is from 15 to 20 years old. The operation Is similar in principal to thinning any other farm crop where It is desired to obtain a few good plants rather than many of poor quality. The owner should use the ax with care, removing only trees which crowd others and cause too great competition for sunlight. Material removed in a thinning is valuable for fence po9ts and pole3 and should pay for the operation. As a rule, not more than one- RIGHT CONDITION FOR SOWS Search for Superior Sire. Cntil we get perfect animals we should search for a sire that In some particulars is superior to the cows in our herds. Three Rations Suggested by Nebraska Experiment Station—Have Alfalfa Hay Accessible. Brood sows should be taken away from the rest of the hogs and be fed a different ration. Three rations suggested by the Nebraska experiment station are: (1) One part high-grade tankage. 12 parts corn. (2) Skim milk or buttermilk and corn, using three parts of the milk to one part of corn. (3) Wheat and shorts. Whichever ration is used, a rack containing alfalfa should be so placed that the hogs have free access to the hay at all times, in addition the sows should be supplied with minerals. It is a good plan to dump the wood and coal ashes in the lot where the sows run. A mixture composed of a basket of charcoal or fine coal, five pounds nl salt, five pounds of air-slaked lime, and twe pounds of sulphur will five good rstnres if kept snail? available. Dry Yards for Sheep. A well drained dry yard and stable floor are worth more to the sheep keeper than a $10,000 sheep barn. EXCELLENT MASH FOR FOWLS Mixture of Wheat Bran, Middlings, Ccrnmeal.

It has been proven by experiments that it takes about one-third more feed to produce a given amount of milk when the cow is exposed to sorere weather and not bedded than when she is properly shedded and provided with bedding. Point In Feeding Calves. One of the greatest points in feeding calves is not to overfeed, firth to one-fourth of the treea uhould be removed at ^ne tlmo. Grapevine, ivy and woodbine, and similar climbem which have grown into the treea should be cut out by severing their main at ems near the ground. In the second type of woodlot the treea vary greatly in age and height a n ! the stand la largely dominated by old trees, whose tops *<hut off the sunlight and retard the growth of the younger trees bene-vth. Such a tract should flrst be cleared of dead and diseased timber. Next, the mature living trees should be removed. Thia should be delayed, however, until sufficient reproduction is started in the openings made in the first operation, and marketing conditions permit a satisfactory sale. Heavy stands composed almost wholly of mature trees should not be removed all at once unless the owner expects to provide for the new crop by planting. The old treea should be taken off in two or three successive cuttings at intervals of several years, each cutting taking from one-third to one-half the trees. These cuttings allow the remaining trees to receive more sunlight and thus encourage them to produce more seed. Neither of the first two cuttings should be so heavy as to encrurage the growth of weeds or grass on the forest floor. The third cutting should be made after the seedlings are established and there is no further need \ for protection of the old trees. Scattered old trees, suppressing valuable young growth, often will be found in woodlots. Such trees will never be of much value for lumber and their wldespreading habit often results in the suppression or killing of the young and better-formed seedlings, which frequently may be of considerable value, it is best in such cr.ses to remove the old trees at once. Pasture and timber production cannot be practiced on the same area, except to the disadvantage of each, and the combination will not be as remunerative to the owner as the practice of either one separately. Cattle, horses, sheep or goats eat young seedlings, trample them out, or brush against them and break them off. Hogs eat the seed and thus prevent reproduction from starting, or root young seedlings out of the ground. The existing growth is damaged through the trampling or wounding of the roots and the compacting of the soil so that it is impervious to water. Horses should be kept out of the woodlot entirely because they often peel the bark from trees and eat the young shoots. When young growth is not desired, a f°w head of cattle are permissible, provided, however, that the ground is not soft when they are turned in. Hogs may be used to aid reproduction before the time for the seed to fall. They will root up the ground and thus put it In good condition for receiving the seed. Goats and sheep should be allowed in the woodlot only when it Is necessary to clear up brush of undesirable species. Care should be taken to keep fire from getting into the woodlot. This destroys the fallen leaves and accumulated litter of several years, thus doing away with the very material with which the trees enrich their own soil. Burned-over ground becomes exposed, evaporation is greater, and more of the rain and malted snow mna. off the sur*\ce. T^eaf or grass fires usually destroy the young seedlings up to one inch In diameter and also do great damage to other trees in the stand, especially by making conditions favorable for the entrance of rot-producing fungi.

A Famous Physician's Wonderful Discovery After a series of careful experiments and testa at the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute, Buffalo, N. Y^ covering many years—Dr. Pierce, the medical director of that hospital, made announcement that he could prove that a medicine which be called "ANURIC" was the best uric acid solvent now to be had. As a remedy for those easily recognized symptoms of inflammation—as scalding urine, backache and frequent urination, as well as sediment in the urine, or if uric acid in the blood has caused rheumatism, lumbago, sciatica, gout, it is simply wonderful bow quickly "Anuric" acts; causing the pains and stiffness rapidly to disappear. Swollen hands, ankles, feet are due to a dropsical condition, often caused by disordered kidneys. Naturally when the' kidneys are deranged the blood is filled with poisonous waste matter, which settles in the feet, ankles and wrists; or under the eyes in bag-like formations. It is just as necessary to keep the kidneys acting properly as to keep the bowels active. The very best possible way to take care of yourself is to take a glass of hot^water before meals and an "Anuric" tablet. In this way it is readily dissolved with the food, picked up by the blood and finally reaches the kidneys, where it has a tonio effect in rebuilding those organs. Step into the drug store and ask for s 50-eent package of ^Anuric," or send Dr. Pierce lOe for trial pekg. "Anuric"—many times more potent than lithia, eliminates uric acid as hot water melts sugar.

K&st JLaxslng- One hundred far in Doya of Michigan will leave their lamia In July. The above fact does not alarm the "Stay-ou-the-Farm" ad voeatea, however, be<;auae the hundred boyjs are going lo the second annual Farm Boys Camp ai the Michigan Agricultural College. While city boys are pitching their tents In the country, these lads will pitch their tents on the campus of Michigan'** greatest center of agricultural education at East Lansing. The experiment was first made last summer when 39 boys from 23 comities came for the first Farm Boys*' Camp. The Camp was so successful, that provision will be made to accozu*. modate one hundred boys this year. The Farm Boys' Camp is mar* than a mere camp; it is a combination of School and Camp. It is a movement to give farm boys a t&ate of agricultural while they are still in their teene—at the age when t h e / usually have strong tendencies to make their vocational choices. Bach morning is spent at real hard study of farm problems. No boofc» ax* us€d; the College farm and the College livestock constitute the laboratory where these boys will do their studying. The afternoon is devoted to game*, lessons in swimming and varioua other recreational activities. In th« evening the boys gather around tha campflre to listen to the leader's talks, tell stories and sing songs. There will be a leader for each group of ten boys. These leaders are teach, ers of agriculture in the High Schools of Michigan. This ia but another of the many innovations to be included In M. A. C.'a growing summer school which is under the supervision of Dean E. H. Ryder, The Camp begins on July 10th and lasts ten days. Boys who are members of the Agricultural Clubs, superintended by the College are elegible and the age limits are from 12 to 16 years. Creating a New Profession. The new movement in rural life Is creating a new profession, or, perhaps it Bhould be said that it is regenerating en old profession, for since the beginning of the Boys' and Girls' Club movement, rural teachers and other rural leaders have been compelled to acquire a new training. They can no longer continue to merely "Keei School"; their communities are demanding some practical results in tht nature of home projects connected with school work. Last year there were 5000 boys and girls in Michigan organized into various kinds of clubs for the purpose of carrying on home project work. The number is increasing at a rapid rate. The demand right now is for teachers and other leaders who are equipped to direct these clubs. The summer sessions at the Michigan Agricultural College will attempt to meet these demands for new training. A special school of instruction for club leaders will be conducted at East Lansing from July 17th to July 22nd. Those who attend this special school will be taught how to demon, ttrate the new cold-pack method of canning. Instruction will be given in the methods of conducting corn clubs, potato clubs, bean clubs, gardening clubs, poultry duba, garment-making clubs, etc. The demonstrations and classes will be under the supervision of those who have charge of the clufc work in Michigan, assisted by soxm* •ne from the department at Wasb tegton. Dean E. H. Ryder of the Summer Ichooi announces that this special achool of instruction for club leader* to to be conducted without cost t# 'hose who attend. Tbe only expeng/ «rill be for board.

M.—General Pershing, who visited the camp on a tour of inspection, emphatically denied the alarmist rumors published by many American newspapers to the effect that the army now in Mexico is menaced on every hand. "You may say," he said, "that our army now In Mexico is fully able to cope with any situation which may arise, and you may add also that there is no danger of an attack by any source or direction. "The result of the battle at Ojos Azules a few days ago put such fear in the heads of the bandits that it will be a long time before they invite another such beating as was then given them." General Pershing denied categorically that there has been any movements of the army towards the border or that any such movement is intended in the near future. The lines of communication are well guarded and forced and forces so well disposed as to be in no danger of being attacked, he said. Grain, Etc.

The tight* In a certain upper office In the Nlquoia building were still turned on long after M. Poudrecaulx had given up the hope of the deep-sea Bounding for that night. Some time after the lobby crowd had melted, and before the lower avenue had begun to order email-hour suppers of Bongraa, the two high windows in the Nlquoia building went dark and a few minutes later the man who had spent half the night tramping the floor or sitting with his bead In his hands at the desk in the upper room came out of the street archway and walked briskly to the telegraph office across the plaza. "How Is the line tonight Sanford— pretty clear?" he asked of the night manager, killing time while the sleepy sight receiving clerk was making his third attempt to count the words in the closely-written, two-page government cipher. "Nothing doing; "a little A. P. stuff drizzling In now and then," said the manager; adding: "But that's like the poor—always with us." "All right; there is no particular rush about this matter of mine, Just ao It la sure to be in the secretary's bands at the opening of business In the morning. But be careful that it goes straight—you'd better have It checked back before It is put on the through wire from Denver." "Sure, Mr. Broulllard. What you say in this tittle old shack goes as It lays. "Well look out and not bull your message. Good night." CHAPTER XXI An Evening Call Notwithstanding the preliminary rumors which Bongras and many others had sought so anxiously to verify, the Mlrapolltan awakening to a realization that once more the tide had turned to bring new billows of prosperity tumbling into the valley of the Nlquoia came with a sudden and triumphant shock. The first of the quickening waves fell upon the government reservation. Between sunrise and nightfall, on a day when the cloud of depression had crown black with panic threatenings, the apathy which had lately character laed the work on the great dam disappeared as If by magic. The city found Stg billboards posted with loud calls for labor; the Idle mixers were put in commission; the quarries and crushers began to thunder again; and the stagings once more shook and trembled under the feet of a busy army of pud* dlers, While the revival was as yet only Is the embryonic period, fresh labor began to come In gangs and in carloads and presently by special trains. Swarming colonies of Greeks, Italians and Bulgarians were dumped upon the city through the gate of the railroad station, and once more Cbigrlngo avenue at night became a cheerful midway answering to the speech of all nations. Change, rerrvlflcation, reanlmation instantly became the new order of the day; and again Mlrapolls flung itself Joyously into the fray, reaping where it bad not sown and sowing only where the quickest crop could ba gathered. For now the dullest of the reapers saw that the government work was really the Mlrapolltan breath of Ufa. < This new and never-mentioned con victlon wrought an eager change in men and in methods. Credit vanished and spot cash waa tacitly acknowledged to be the only way to do business in a live community. Fortunes oji««tj»rt bauds swiftly, as before, but sow there was little bargaining and. with hot haste for the foreword, little time for ft. To the western motto of -Oo to It and gat the money* waa added: "And dont coma back without it" It was said with a laugh, but behind the laugh there was a menace. Among the Individual transformations wrought by the new condition*, the young chief of the reclamation aervlos afforded the moat striking example. Prom the morning when he bad summarily canceled the lease for the offices la the Nlquoia building and bad returned bis headquarters to the old log frnfl4*rg« on the gorerument reear- •attoa aad thence had Issued bis first of orders tor the reanmpttoa of worhoB the those who had not known him best discovered that they had not known him at all Even to Grtslow and the man of his staff he was curt, crisply r^nlstory, almost brutal For one and ail there was rarely anything beyond the shotlike sentence: "Drive It, man; drive it; that's what you're hare t o r - drive it!" The time ho took to eat his hurried meals at Bongras' could be measured in minutes, and what hours he gate to sleep no man knew, since be was the last to leave the headquarters at night and the first oa the work in the morning. Twice, after the renewed activities on the great wall had become a well-ordered race against time, and the concrete waa pouring into the high forms in steady streams from the ranlced batteries of mixers, Mr. Coitr wright had sent for Broulllard. and on each occasion the messenger had gone back with the brief word. "Too busy during working hours." And when a third messenger came to Inquire what Mr. Brouillard's working hours were, the equally blunt answer returned waa: "All the time." In the face of such discouragements Mr. Cortwright was constrained to pocket his dignity as mayor, as the potentate of the exchanges, and as the unquestionable master of the surly young industry captain who refused to come when he was called, and to go in person. Choosing the evening hour when he had been assured that he was likely to find Broulllard alone and at work, he crossed the boundaries of the sacred reservation and made his way to the door of the log-built mapping room. "I came around to see what Is eating you these days," was the pudgy tyrant's greeting for the young man flitting under the shaded desk lamp. "Why don't you drop In once ln^a while and give me the run of thingsr* "I gave your clerk the reason," said Broulllard laconically. "I'm too busy.'1' "The devil you are!" snapped the great man, finding the only armchair In the room and dropping heavily Into it "Since when?" "Since the first time you sent for me—and before." Mr. Cortwright recovered his working geniality only with a palpable effort "See here, Broulllard, you know you never make any money by being short with me. Let's drop It and get down to business. What I wanted to say Is that you are overdoing it; you are put' ting on too much steam. You've brought the boom, all right, but at the pace you're Betting It wont last long enough. Are you catching onr" "I'm listening," was the noncommittal reply. "Well, enough's enough, and too much of a good thing scalds the hog before you're ready to dress It and cut It up. It's all right for you to run men In here by the train load and scatter 'em out over your scaffolding—the more the merrier, and It's good for the town—but you needn't sweat the last shovelful of hurry out of them the way you're doing. It won't do to get your Job finished too soon." "Before congress convenes, you mean?" suggested Broulllard. "That's just what I mean. 8txing It out Make It last" Broulllard sat back In his pivot chair and began to play with the paperknife. "And if I don't choose to 'string it out'—If I even confess that I am straining every nerve to do this thing that you don't want me to do—what than. Mr. Cortwright?" The quiet retort Jolted the stocky man In the armchair as if it had been a blow. But he recovered quickly. "I've been looking for that," be said with a nervous twinkling of the little gray eyes. "You've no business being out of business, Broulllard.

Let Maastngsie sell his ore and get the money for It Hell go gamble it as he did yours." Broulllard looked up under the shaded electric globe and bis handsome face wrinkled in a sour smile. "You are ready to let go. are you?" he said. "You are too late. Mr. Ford returned from Europe a week ago, and I have a wire saying that tonight's "How U the Line Tonight, Pretty Clear?" through freight from Brewster is chiefly made up of empty ore cars for the 'Little Susan.' " The sandy-gray eyes blinked at this, but Mr. Cortwright was of those who die hard. "What I said still holds good. Mas singale or his son, or both of them, will gamble the money. And If they don't, we've got 'em tied up In a hard knot on the stock proposition." "I was coming to that" said Broulllard quietly. "For a long time you have been telling me what I should do and I have done It Now I'll take my turn. You must notify your associates that the 'Little Susan' deal is off. There will be a called meeting of the directors here In this room tomorrow evening at eight o'clock, and—" "Who calls It?" Interrupted the tyrant "The president." "President nothing!" was the snort* ed comment "An old, drunken gambler who hasn't got sense enough to go in when it rains! Say, Broulllard, 111 cut that pie so there'll be enough to go around the table. Just leave Maasingale out of it and make up your mind that you're going to sit In with us. We've bought the mine and paid for it I've got the stock put away where it's safe. Maasingale cant touch a share of it or vote It either." Broulllard shook his bead. "You are stubbornly hard to convince, Mr, Cortwright but 111 try one more time. You will come bare tomorrow evening, with your confederates in the deal prepared to take the money you have actually spent in bettorments and prepared to release the stock. If you fan to do so you will get nothing. Is that explicit enough?* "You're craxy!" shouted the promoter. "You talk as if there wasn't any law In this countryl" There isnt—for such men as yon; you and your kind put jum serves above the law. But that Is neither here nor there. You dont want to go into court with this conspiracy which you have cooked up to beat David Masv stngale out of his property. It's the butt thing on earth you want to do. So you'd better do the other thing— while yon can." fl^ CHAPTER XXII £ g The Sunset Gun Mr. Cortwright sat back in his chair, and ones mora Brouniaxd saw hi the sandy-gray eyes the look which had bean in the SOB'S ayes when the derelict fought for freedom to flnlah tiffing Stephen Mssstngala "It's a pretty dangerous thing to tr? to bold a man up unless youVe got the drop oa him, Broulllard," ha said significantly.

"The pocket drop Is never very safe, Mr. Cortwright You are likely to lose too much time feeling for the proper range. Then, too, you can never be sure that you won't miss. Also, your assumption that I'm taking an unarmed man's chance is wrong. I can kill you before you can pull the trigger of the pocket gun you speak of— kill you so dead that you won't need anything but a coroner's Jury and a coffin. How long would it take you to get action in the Washington matter. do you think?" "I've told you; you have Just about a week longer to live, at the farthest" "I can better that," waa the cool reply. "I have asked you to do a certain thing tomorrow night. If you don't do It, the Spotlight will print, on the following morning, that letter 1 spoke of—the letter from my friend In the bureau of land statistics. When that letter is printed everybody in Mlrapolis will know that you and your accom plicea are plain swindlers, amenable to the criminal law, and from that moment there will never be another real estate transfer in the Niquola valley." The promoter rose slowly out of his chair and stood leaning heavily with his fat hands, palms downward, on the fiat-topped desk. His cheeks were puffed out and the bitten mustaches bristled like the whiskers of a gray old leader of the timber wolves. "Broulllard." he grated huskily, "does this mean that you're breaking with us, once for all?" "It means more than that; it means that I have reached a point at which I am ashamed to admit that there was ever anything to break." "Then listen: You've helped this thing along as much as, or more than, anybody else in this town; and there are men right here In Mlrapolls— plenty of 'em—who will kill you like a rat in a hole if you go back on them as you are threatening to. Don't you know that?" The younger man was balancing *he paper cutter across his finger. "That Is the least of my worries," he answered, speaking slowly. "I am all sorts of a moral coward, I suppose; l'V9 proved that often enough In the past few months, God knows. But I'm not the other kind, Mr. Cortwright" "Then I'll take a hand!" snarled the tyrant at bay. "I'll spend a million dollars, if I have to, blacklisting you from one end of this country to the other! I'll fix it so you'll never build anything bigger than a hog pen again as long as you live! I'll publish your record wherever there Is a newspaper to print It!" He pounded on the desk with his flst—"I'll do it—money can do It! More than that, you'll never get a smell of that Chtgrlngo mine—you nor Dave Masslngale!" Broulllard tossed the paper-knife Into a half-opened drawer and squared himself at the blotting pad. "That Is your challenge, Is It?" be said curtly. "So be It Start your machinery. You will doubtless get me, not because you have money, bat because for a time I was weak enough and wicked enough to climb down and stand on your level. But If you dont hurry, Mr. Cortwright, 111 get you first. Are you going? One thing more—and it's a kindness; get your son out of town before this Masslngale matter comes up for adjustment It will be safer." "Is that all yon have to say?* •Pretty nearly all, except to ten you that your time Is growing short and you and those who are in with you had better begin to set your houses In order. If you'll come over here at eight o'clock tomorrow night prepared to do the square thing by David Masking*la, m withhold the publication of that letter which win stamp you and your associates as criminals before the lawr but that Is the only concession I shall make.** •"You've got to make at least one more!" stormed the outgoing magnata. 'Yon dont have to set any dates or anything of that kind for your damned drowning act!" "In Justice to a good many people who are measurably Innocent I shall have to do that very thing," returned the engineer firmly. T h e notice wffl appear in tomorrow's Spotlight" It was the final straw in the stocky promoter's crushing wrath burden* His fat face turned purple, and for a second or two he clawed the air, gasping for breath Broulllard sat back In his chair, waiting for the volcanic upheaval But tt did not coma. Whan ha bad regained a measure of self-control Mr. Cortwright tuned slowly and want out without a word, stumbling over the threshold and slamming the door heavily as be disappeared.

Ten minutes later be had penetrated to the dusty den on the second floor of the Spotlight office where Harlan waa grinding copy for his paper.

Why has Kansas the lowest death rate in the United States? This question was asked by doubting federal officials after they had investigated the report of W. J. V. Deacon, state registrar of vital statistics, showing that the Kansas death rate was only 9.8 per 1,000. The answer of Mr. Deacon as given to Samuel L. Rogers, directors of the United States bureau of census, gave this reason among others: "Kansas is a prohibition state and has been for a generation, and In Kansas, prohibition really prohibits. I do not mean by this there Is no alcohol consumed In the state, but the absence of the saloon means much to our growing boys and young men, who, In the absence of any bar room, find more healthful pastimes than loafing In an alcohol laden atmosphere. "Another and more Important fact concerning prohibition Is that the wage of the laborer or mechanic is not dissipated, but goes to supply those necessities of food, clothing and housing most essential to the wellbelng of their families and themselves." EDITOR'S CHANGE OF HEART. During the wet and dry campaign of the state of Washington, the Seattle Daily Times worked vigorously for the wets. After one month of prohibition this is what the editor said: "We fought prohibition on economic grounds alone. We believed that in a great seaport city with a population of upwards of 300,000, prohibition would he destructive; that it would bring on economic disaster. We believed that under the license system we had the liquor traflc as well controlled as it could he; we wanted to let it alone and we fought as hard as we could fight. But In. spite of all we could do, prohibition carried and want into effect January 1. Its moral effect has been tremendous. Seattle had 190 saloons and we had an average of 2,300 areats a month for crimes and misdemeanors growing out of liquor drinking. la January we had only 400 arresta and 60 of these were made January 1. aad were the result of hang-orarav from the old year."

"The submarines, too, It has been learned, are of a real and practical service. All officers think they have become a permanent addition to every navy, hut there is some dieagreement as to their general utility. Can a swarm of submarines, for Instance, go to sea, meet a fleet and destroy it? The question cannot be j answered until such an attempt h a s i been made and either failed or suej ceeded. j "I asked one of the highest military j authorities in the country if 1,000 sub- •' marines, along with mines, could safeguard the United States against invasion— the mines to blow up the enemies' ships off shore, if any happened to get that near, the submarines having met the rest and destroyed them before they came within striking distance of our coasts. The answer was that such a measure of protection, an invasion of t h e United States would, to say the least, be made very difficult, "You see, no one can tell a s yet what part the submarines will take In the wars of the future. Their usee are slowly being developed, and we cannot know what they are capable of doing until the French or British fleet meets the fleet of Emperor William. "Also, It has been learned that battle cruisers are required to bring a navy up to its highest efficiency. Cruisers formerly were used as scouts and to hunt down and destroy t h e merchant ships of an enemy. They were swift, but not heavy enough to take a place in the battle line when large vessels were engaged. i A Sea Battle F l r t t "The modern cruiser, however, can hrht, being covered with armor and i armed with large guns.

"Kour hundred- large ships, for example, would be required to transport an army of 260,000 men from Japan to the United States.

Nor would Germany or any other country in Europe attempt an invasion of the United States so long as our fleet, decks cleared, was waiting in the Atlantic. "Looking to the East, I can see nc probable danger that is likely to occur ' in the near future, unless the allies are thoroughly beaten by Germany, or unless Germany Is thoroughly beaten by the allies. If the war i t practically a draw a t the end, the efforts of all the great nations to maintain an equilibrium of power will keep them entirely engaged for some time with their own affairs." "Do you believe that a trade war against this country Mill follow the restoration of peace In Europe?" "Such a war will come—there is no doubt of it. Loaded with debt, burdened with taxation, Europe will turn with energy and ferocity to the works of peace.

LELAND, WHO HA.S SHIKO HIS HAT INTO THL RING, WAS BORN ON A i-'AKM IN ROSE TOWNSHIP, THIS COUNTY, WORKED HIS WAY THROUGH COLLEGE TO A COMMANDING POSITION IN THE BUSINESS WORLD, MAKES .\ STRONG KID FOR Y o l K SUPPORT. [Oxford Leader of May ."Ah, I01C Oakland County Republicans at t h e coming August primaries will likely look with much favor upon the gubernational candidacy of Frank B. Leland, of Detroit. The fact that he is a native of this county will command the attention of Oakland county Republicans who are invariably loyal to the "home fulks". Leland waa born on a farm in Rose township, this county; in fact for a number of years has owned and operated the farm on which his boyhood was *pent, so it is but natural that Oakland county should have more than a passing interest in his candidacy. We have been Elmer E. Collins of Detroit, Dies Sergeant Elmer E. Collins, of the police department, died in his home, 500 Brainard street, Sunday noon. Sergeant Collins became ill while on duty in the fourth precinct station last Thursday. His condition was not regarded as serious. Sunday morning he announced he intended to return to work Monday. At noon he collapsed and died within a few minutes. He was born in Dexter, Mich., 50 Close Game at South Lyons The H. S. ball learn went lo South Lyons Saturday and were defeated in a close and interesting game by a score of 6 to 7. Hendee started to pitch fur the local team, but wae batted out of the box in the first half, the South Lyons boys getting two walks and three safe hit*. Swarthout then went into he box and finished the game. R. Harris brought his batting average up to 1O0 per cent by getting three hits and a walk during the game, many of his hits being good for two bases or more, if it had not been for the ground rules allowing only one base on balls bated into a grove of trees near the diamond. This makes a game apiece for the boys and a date will try and be arranged to pley the rubber. The Alumni H.

Eight years a regent of the U. of M., handling the expenditures cf millions of dollars, shows the capacity of the man as well as indicating that he has had exceptional opportunities for studying the business methods uf the state and its institutions. He comes not before the public forum as an untried neophtyte but as a successful business man of practical experience. From the standpoint of political exjidiency, the party which wishes to •gain control the reins of state government must consider Leland. He comee in the unique character of a. man on whom all Wayne county republicans can combine and with the endorsement of all the press of the metropolis—a condition we cannot recall as ever occurmg in the past. For in harmonizing Wayne, he has accomplished what has been long thought an impossibility. Nor does his support seem t o be dependent on the heavy vote of t h e metropolis, although that is bound to be a great factor in his favor at the primaries. He has a large following in the Ftate as evidenced when he was nominated for regent of the U. of M. despite the opposition of factional organizations in Wayne.

I've never known a dog to wag His tail in glee he didn't feel, Nor quit hid old-time friend to tag At some more influential heel, The yellowest cur I ever knew Was, to the boy who loved him true. I've never known a dog to show Half-way devotion to his friend, To seek a kinder man to know. Or richer, but unto the end The humblest dog I ever knew Was to the man that loved him. true. I've never known a dog to fake Affection for a present gain, A false display of love to make Some little favor to attain. I've never known a Prince or Spot That seemed to be what he was not. But 1 have known a dog to fight With ail hia strength to shield his friend, And whether wrong, or whether right To stick with him unto the end. And I have known a dog to lick The hand of him that men would kick. And I have known a dog to bear Starvations pangs from day to day With him who had been glad to share His bread and meat along the way. No dog, however mean or rude, Is guilty of ingratitude. The dog is listed with tne dumb, No voice ha? he to speak his cr^ed. His messages to humans come By faithful -onduct and by deed. ' He shows, a« seidom mortals do, ; A high ideal of being true.

She had pressed a small pdekage in his hand when he went to sty good-by the evening before. He wa /ed his thanks as he passed her in th* "crowd. Dear little daguerreotype! *ie had it still, faded but beautiful to him. He must go and tell her abou* Mr. Whitney's compliment. She would be glad to know. Samantha wfcs always glad when honors came to him. Aa he reached the kitchen door, Samantha came down :he steps to help him. Putting her hf nd under his arm she said: "Why. father, I d dn't know but Td have to come and set you. Thought you'd fallen asleep." "I was dreamin'. ma, but 1 wasn't Asleep. I was war back in war time. Al Whitney was b ^re this raornin' to camj Then Mr. Whitney turned and intr^fuced "our honored citizen and solo remaining veteran of the Civil war, Mr. Reuben Henshaw." As he stool up, tottering a little on his wouf'dvl leg, there was a surprised mumilr at the rear of the tent among a group of strangers. Re^bor. fumbled for his manuscript, gripi ed it tight, and sought out the face that had never failed him. Then he bf'gar. his speech. "Fellow-citizens, neigl bors, friends," he began, "your chaifmar selected me to talk to you aboui» sone of the bravest men this town ever had. I've got it all writ down hert\ but my specs ain't workin' right, and I don't believe I can read it. Guesf I'll Jest have to tell it to you after all. I'm wearin' gray today stead o' blue.

( dldn •. feel that way, though, forty-flve yetrs ago, when I marched out of this fonn in the fall of '61, along with— ' Hen1, followed the string of fourteen namts well-known and reverenced in the tillage.

'A Tribute to Our I'oys of '61.' he said I was to call it. Rut I ain't goin' to put no such high-flytn' title as that on P.. If they want an account of how (ur boys fit and sufferer! and died. I can give it." "That's so, faf.bsr; no one can do it better. But won'l you be afraid talkin' to the Guv'nor afd so many folks?" Reuben laughed softly. "Now, mother! the Guvior ain't a day older than our little Tom would have been. And just like 's not Tom would have been Guv'nor If he had have lived. Xo. I ain't a mite scared." Joe, the hired I tan, had double work for several days after Mr. Whitney's visit; for Reuben spent many hours at the old desk In tl-e sitting-room, writing his manuscript laboriously. At last the grea' day da-wned, bright and clear. Preparations had been going on for several days in the village. The hotel and post office were gorgeous in flags and bunting. Flags floated from many house windows. At one end of the eemmon a huge tent had been erected, nnd there the speakers would face the assemblage. An organ had been placed in front of the rostrum, and a choir of village boya and girls drilled for the occasion. The band from tipper Hallam had rolunhotel waa placed a dlnlng-tent to accommodate the overflow. The Tillage was astir early, and long before ten o'clock, the hoar set for the exercise* to begin, the chnrch sheds were filled with horses, carriage*, express wagons and farm wagcnsT while a long line of nondescript vehicles, with often indifferent locomotive power, lined the fences. Purveyors of badges and postal cards wandered up and down and the toy balloon man arrived early. The entire township had poured its full measure of enthusiasm into the village: and in the home gatherings were brought together for the first time sons and daughters who bad stories giving kindly tribute to his comrarions of campflre and battlefield, telling of lonely pickets and forced marches, dwelling upon acts of bravery and fearless iess, till his hearers thrilled with the lecital and many eyes were w >t. At latt the chairman was obliged to touch 1 im on the shoulder and tell him his time was up; and he sank inlo his seat amid a thunder of applause. There was one more speaker before the gove-nor should make the final address. Keuben, his mind freer now, studied the young governor's face as he sat bending slightly forward to catch the speaker's words. "Strange," thought the old man, "how much he looks like Tom Duffleld, my old tentmate and chum. Tom was shot way back in '64, long before this boy waB born. But he is strangely like; the same alert, eager face, the look Tom always had before a battle. Poor Tom! how tired he waa that night we camped below Hazel Run. Tom was almost sick that night, anyway. I was a lot stronger, and glad to take his place on the picket line. 'Twas pretty hard to keep awake, though. I couldn't help it—if my feet—did stumble—my— head—felt—as—though—" A sudden Jerk. "Why. I thought I was a boy on teered their services. In front of the picket duty again; I must have dozed." And Reuben looked about In wonder till his eyes found Samantha's face again and rested there. Now the governor was on his feet. He was speaking. What was he saying? Reuben leaned forward, his old hands with their knotted veins clutching his knees, his blue eyes filled with wonder. "Friends," the governor was saying, "before I begin the speech I am here to make. I want to pay a tribute to one of your volunteers whom your speaker has overlooked. I have a father—he is here today—who was also a volunteer in '6t. In Washington he met a boy from his own state. They became chums and tentmates. They were together In many a hard-fought battle. Many a night they lay in the treflches or marched weary miles in each other's company. One night—my father tells the story with loving remembrance— your soldier boy did picket duty. It waa cold and wet. Next day the march was a hard one, through the mud of a country road. My father was not welL When after plodding wearily for many miles a halt was called, :md camp made, he waa assigned to picket duty. He was very tired, too tired to keep awake, and so your boy volunteered to serve in his stead. Your boy had served the night before. He had marched as far as my father, but he accepted the duty to spare his friond. Can you not see him as he trudges painfully back and forth on his post?" "There was another night" — the governor's voice was quiet now and all was very still—"a small detachment of the Fifth was surprised by the enemy. In the skirmish that followed, my father was shot." Reuben's mouth had fallen open. "I kno't; wasn't I there to see? But he was killed," he murmured. "His chum." continued the governor, seeing his comrade fall, dashed in amid a rain of bullets thick as hair, and dragged the senseless body to a place of safety, then disappeared." "Grays ketched me," muttered Reuben. "When my father recovered consciousness he was in a field hospital of the Christian Commission. There he learned of his frieild's part in that night attack. Search was made; but all effort to find that friend proved unavailing, and he was given up for dead. When my father recovered, minus his right arm, he received an honorable discharge, and returned home. Later he left his home and went to Vermont. I learned today that his old comrade is still alive. I have listened with interest to the glowing tribute your speaker has paid to the volunteers of this village. But he has been . too modest. Some of the bravest deeds he has left unrecorded. So 1 take pleasure in giving my inadequate testimony to the bravery and kindness of your neighbor and my father's comrade, Reuben Henshaw." There was not a sound to be heard as the governor turned and clasped Reuben's hands in both his own. The old man's eyes ware full of tears, and his voice trembling as he asked eagerly, "Is Tom alive? is Tom alive?" "Yes." returned the gbvernor, "not only alive, but hero. He came with me today because it was to your town I was coming." The crowd had been quiet long enough and now broke into tumultuous applause. Down through the aisle another old man was coming, gray. bent, his right sleeve hanging empty. Making his way through the curious applauding throng he reached the platform, while the governor, still holding Reuben's hand, stepped forward to meet him. One look into each other's eyes, and the two old comrades clasped hands with a cry of "Reuben!" 'Tom!" Then their trembling voices failed and their eyes overflowed. Samantha laid a timid hand on that of her neighbor. 'Tm afraid father can't Jtand it," she said anxiously. "I must go and get him.'' Shouldering her way to the platform, ahe caught Reuben's coat. "Come, father," she said. "You and Mr. Duffleld come outside with me. Vm 'fraid yon can't stand it." And so, led by Samantha, thvy passed out into the sunlight.

Of Late Years Weed Has Been Increasingly Troublesome In Grain Growing Sections—Renders Soil Unfit f o r F a r m i n g . In the states north of the Ohio river, probably no plant bears such a bad reputation au the so-called Canada thistle. This marvelously prickly plant abounds In grain fields, pastures, and meadows throughout the central west, and is common in the northeastern states. It Is found in parts of West Virginia, Kentucky, and Missouri, and of late years has been Increasingly troublesome in the graingrowing sections of the Northwest Canada thistle, or simply "thistle," has been condemned in the laws oi 25 states, and at least 100 local communities. Certainly no plant is more generally and heartily disliked, unless It be the sand bur of the southern coastal plain. The unpopularity of Canada thistle is due largely to its unsightly appearance and exceedingly spiny leaves, and to its persistent resistance to attempts at eradication. Under ordinary cropping systems and with reasonable care, the thistle is at worst a disagreeable nuisance. Generally speaking, it does not injure the quality or quantity of farm products, excepting hay, as much as do Quackgrass, wild on^on, or wild mustard; nor is it as destructive to the grass in pastures and meadows as are a number of almost insignificant little weeds whose very existence is often unsuspected. When left to Itself, however, the thistle spreads rapidly, until in a few years It will more or leas completely occupy the land, rendering *^3 ' ^^stf Wm 5» f ffUL.

The soil upon which Canada thistles flourish is apt to be of good natural fertility, and it usually pays to reclaim thistle- Infested fields. The cause of the remarkable vitality of Canada thistle and the point that distinguishes it from other prickly plants that are commonly mistaken for it, is the long, cordlike, perennial root. This root penetrates the soil at a depth of eight to fifteen inches, or more, and gives rise at frequent Intervals to leafy shoots. Thus tt will often be found that an entire patch of thistles is attached to one root, and Is in reality but one plant The root Is exceedingly hardy, and can live over winter or through a prolonged drought In a dormant condition. Pieces that are broken off by a plow or cultivator and carried tr other places will await a warm, nfoist period, and then begin to send out leafy shoots, thus establishing a hew patch. r~ The point that must be kept In mind, however, in fighting Canada FIELD MICE ARE INJURIOUS Rodents Are Tenacious of Life and Multiply With Great R a p i d i t y - There Are Many Species. A circular letter from the United States department of agriculture calls atention to the losses to orchardists, nurserymen and farmers from field, mice, of which there are 50,000 species known to exist in this country, but t h e fanner recognises only two kinds, meadow mice and pine mice. These m i c e ' a r e tenacious of Ufa. and multiply with great rapidity. They cannot live without eating and they take their choice of such food aa may be at hand. If nothing better can be found the mice feed anon the bark of trees or upon the roots of grasses and shrubs, destroying grass, cutting down grain, clover, and alfalfa, eating the gram ta shocks or graasv t i e s , injuring flowers and vegetables, and doing harm in hundreds of ways. l a oae part of Nevada the mteo totally ruined 8 M M acres of alfalfa. tal»r thistles is that It Is the roots, rathei than the tops, thai uiubt bts killed Simply cutting off the topa a f t * times has much the same effect as pruning an apple tree. But if the tops are cut off deep and frequently, the root must eventually suffocate through lack of leaves. Bearing this In cutnd, any of the following meth ods of eradication will be found ef fectlve: 1. Summer Fallow.—Most suitable for one-half acre or more of thorough ly infested land, from which little rev enue could be expected anyway. Plow deep In the fall, exposing the roots to the frost. Harrow In the spring to kill seedlings of annual weeds. Let the thistle grow until the first blossoms appear (about June 1) or untH there Is danger of other weeds going to seed. Plow shallow and from theD until frost use disk harrow often enough to prevent thistle leaves from making over four inches of growth If the thistles get over six inches high at any time, all the previous work will be undone. This applies to all methods. Follow during the second year with a cultivated crop, giving it a lit tie extra cultivation and hoeing out Individual thistles. 2. Partial Fallow.—(1) For grain fields or old meadows. Cut the crop early for hay, if necessary, to prevent thistles from seeding. Allow thistles to grow for four to six days, then plow, and proceed as in 1 for remainder of season. (2) For cultivated ground—Allow thistles to grow until first blossoms appear. Plow shallow. When thistles are about three Inches high disk thoroughly and plant late smother crops. 3. Smother Crops.—Combination of above. A good method on rich ground. Cut grass early for hay as In 2 (1) above. Plow shallow four to six days later. I^eave for four to six days more and disk thoroughly. Then sow smother crop of buckwheat (four-fifths peck), rape (broadcast six-eighths pound), millet (three-fourths peck), or fodder corn ia check rows. After the crop is off, keep thistles down by disking until frost. Hemp and alfalfa are excellent smother crops In sections where they are grown. Alfalfa may be either spring or fall sown, according to custom, but the surface of the ground must be clean and well prepared before planting. 4. Cultivated Crops,—Most generally useful method. Corn In check rows best crop. Have ground clean before planting. Equip cultivator with nine-inch sweeps instead of ordinary shoes. Keep sweeps sharp and cultivate frequently. Hoe the corn after laying by, and cultivate the ground after harvest with a disk harrow until frost. Repeat second year. 5. Hoeing and Cutting,—Best for small patches. Stake out the patch and visit regularly with a sharp hoe or scythe at least twice a week. 6. Chemicals.—There is no chemical that in reasonable quantities will kill Canada thistles with one application, unless applied directly to the cut root. For spraying, use sodium arsenite (a violent poison), two pounds in ten gallons of water; common salt, one pound in one and a half quarts of water; or crude carbolic acid, diluted one-half. If animals are salted on a small patch of thistles, they will finally disappear. Frequent spraying of the thistle with the above chemicals may be used Instead of cutting in rocky or other Inconvenient places. 7. Miscellaneous.—Sheep will sometimes graze thistles to death if forced to do so. Small patches of thistles may be smothered by covering with overlapping strips of tar paper or building paper, weighting the laps down with earth and leaving the paper on for eight to ten weeks during the summer. A coating of straw or manure one foot or more in depth will answer the same purpose.

Time waa when self-subsistence waa the beginning and the end of farming, but the railroad, interurban and telephone have changed all this and the market must now be listened to by the farmer in the same way as by the manufacturer and the merchant. Within the limit* fixed by environment the market determines his crop routine, his type of farming, his relations to the middleman and finally the balance of profit or loss which greets him at the end of the season. This change waa brought about in farm business as a distinct side of agriculture. Marketing is perhaps the leading aspect of this new phase of agriculture and the big place that marketing has in the farmer's outlook is doubtless caused by the fact that so much of the high prices which the consumer pays for farm products disappears before it reaches the farmer. Perhaps this is the fault of the middleman or it may be that the farmer himself is not a good marketer, but at any rate this is one of the problems with which farm business is concerned. The profitable selling of "two blades of grass" where only one was sold before has become the big problem in farming and all departments of agricultural study at the State Agricultural College, Lansing, are gi\ ing interest and effort to this matter. Inseparable from good farm management goes the scoring of results known as farm accounting. Where the profit or loss comes from upon the farm, and when and why, is the aspect of farm business of which accounting takes charge. The intensive style of farming which the city man seems to cherish as the ideal type shows up badly when brought to the balances and inventories of the accountant and it is demonstrated that many of the farmer's "blue ribbon" products are his biggest failures. The higher prices for his products is not the only way in which this most wide spread epidemic has affected the farmer. He is a buyer aj well as seller and the doubling in the value of land and horses and other farm necessities in recent years has done much to cripple his gains. Farm business teaches that the farmer must have better means of credit than he has previously enjoyed and the "Hollia Rural Credit" bill now pending in Congress Is proof of the farmer's need along this line. Credit facilities specialized to his peculiar needs in the same way that railroads and manufacturers have trust companies and merchants have banks will prove a long needed boon to the farmer. The college has shown a warm interest in supporting this phase of the farmer's business through numerous conferenoas during the past few years of prominent farmers and bankers to discuss this matter. The "get together" movement or cooperation has not been overlooked by the college teachers. Business cooperation has indeed always received the approval of the college faculty since one of the oldest co-operative merchantlle associations within the state has been maintained upon the campus for almost two decades. In recent years the possibilities of using this co-operative principle among farmers has been Btrongly endorsed. Tt was at the Michigan Agricultural college that one of the oldest types of farm co-operative undertakings—the cattle breeding associations—had their beginning and more recently the study of all varieties of co-operative work among farmers—selling exchanges, creameries, elevators and credit POcleties— has been gone into for constructive purposes. It is not the belief of the college that it should actively promote the forming of co-operative concerns—the movement in this direction needs no stimulus—but it can be of service In counseling with new or prospective associations as to their prospects of success, style of organization, by-laws, and other technical details. The disadvantages of the unorganized fanners in dealing with and otherwise, well-organised world has long since won the symatphy of thinkers for organisation. A marked forward step along all these lines Is planned by the college for the coining summer school from June 17th to August 1st at which specialists win preaeat the latest conclusions npon aD these s u b fecta.

Detroit- Colonel Theodore Roosevelt in Detroit Friday made a stir that will long be remembered. He Bpoke in the Detroit Opera House which was filled to capacity his subject being preparedness and what makes American citizenship a force for peace and industrial progress. The main points of his address were preparedness to avoid war and to win if war became necessary. And the Importance of becoming the second largest naval power of the world. He urged a standing army of 250,000 men, universal military service, etc. He spoke with all his former vigor and emphasized in points in the old Roosevelt way. This was the principal address and was followed later in the day by another made before the Brotherhood of Trainmen who were holding a convention, attended by thousands of delegates.

Denison, Tex.—Nine persons were killed and 38 Injured and Kemp City, Okla, eight miles east of Denlson was practically wiped off the map by a tornado which swept a path three-quarteru of a mile wide and five miles long In the Kemp City Section, Twelve business houses, a two-story hotel and 60 residences were demonllshed there. This is the second time in recent years that the little town of 300 inhabitants has been visited by a tornado. Merchants said the town probably would not be rebuilt. Eight were killed In the town, while the other victim, a child, was killed in the collapse of its father's home just acorss the Red river in Texas. Of the 38 persons injured, 36 are residents of Kemp City. Two daughters of Dr. McCullough were hurt at the time their younger sister was killed tn the McCullough home, five miles east of Denlson. Most of those injured were caught in the collapse of buildings while trying to reach storm cellars shortly after the storm began. The bodies of the dead in several instances were found hundreds of yards from where their houses had stood. The two-year-old child of Dr. and Mrs. Brinson who were killed, was hurled 500 feet with flying debris when the Brinson residence was destroyed but the child suffered only minor injuries. THREE STATES CALLED BUT NONE ANSWER Texas, Arizona and New Mexico National Guards Called on May 9 Washington—Reports to the war department from Major-General Funston indicate almost a complete fall down on the part of the National Guard or ganizatlons of Texas, Arizona and New Mexico in responding to the call of the president for service with the regular army along the border. Sum moned to the colors, May 0, not a eingle organisation from any of the three states has been mustered in. Not even the mobilization preparatory to the mustering of the militia into the federal service has been completed. An official report from San Antonio states that 116 enlisted men of the Texas National Guard have flatly re fused to respond to the call and although court-martial proceedings will be Instituted to punish them in accordance with the law, officials of the war department declare that beyond the infliction of punishment for failure to respond, there is no means of compelling the guardmen to serve. At the present rate at which mobilization is going on for these three states, army officers figure it would require between one and two months to mobilize any considerable number of National Guard organisations from various parts of the country.

In a statistical survey of the first six months of prohibition in Arizona, January 1 to July 1, 1915, Thomas K. Marshall shows the marked improvements In all phases of state life. Crime, in counties where aaloons existed during 1914, fell off 37.3 per cent when the saloons were closed. This insured a saving to taxpayers of $50,773.98 in decreased cost of arrests and prosecutions. Even more striking axe the figures for the cities and towns. With a total decrease of 2,403, or 60.1 per cent, in the number of arrests for the first six months of 1915 as compared with the same months of 1914, the saving amounts to $85,170.14. This almost offsets the entire amount of liquor license revenue, $100,998, which was surrendered by the cities of the state. The record of the city of Phoenix is perhaps the most remarkable of any. Over $5,000,000 increase in taxable wealth, decrease in tax rate and about $20,000 less in cost of city government for six months, is credited to the capital city of Arizona for the first half of 1914. The decrease in arrests for drunkenness for the first six months of 1915 perhaps surpasses that of any city of its size in the United States. The number of arrests for 1914 was 1,210 and for 1915 was 85. The per capita cost of arrests for 1914 was $6.53. With 1,125 fewer arrests for the Biz months of 1915 for this cause there was a decreased cost of $7,346.25 to the city. Savings hanks accounts In the state increased nearly $400,000 the first six months, and the deposits of all banks increased nearly $3,000,000 up to September, 1915. The children of the state are feeling the benefit of prohibition. There were for the first six months of 1915 2,000 more children in school than for the same period of 1914. The registration at the state university also shows an increase of 56 per cent over the registration for 1914.

A wet and dry map of Illinois is a revealing sort of document, sayB t h e Chicago Journal. It shows that the sale of liquor is forbidden in more than 80 per cent of the geographical area of the state. As indicating "how great has been the retreat of John Barleycorn," continues the Journal, "you can start at the Wisconsin boundary and drive in an absolutely straight line to the Ohio river without once entering wet territory. You can start from half a dozen different townships on the Indiana border and drive straight to the Mississippi river on dry territory, and only at two places in crossing the state from east to west do you need to make more than a Bmall detour to avoid wetness. With the prohibition Btate of Iowa on one side and dried-up Illinois towns and counties on the other, the Mississippi flows for hundreds of miles between banks of solid drought; for only at six points north of the Bast St. Louis oasis can the thirsty voyager get anything to drink but water. An nearly as the Journal can tell, t h e camel is marching forward all over the state.1' General Markets. Strawberries — Louisiana, $2.50® 2.75 per 24-quart case.

According to the report of t h e county auditor since January 1 the number of patients sent t o t h e hospital has been dwindling until at present there are just half as many patients as there were a year ago. Even before the state prohibitory law went into effect, the fact that Des Moines was without saloons tended to cut down t h e alcoholic patients.

But at the end there was an aggrieved look in his eyes, mirroring the poignant regret of a newsman who has found a priceless story which he dares not use. "It's ripping," he sighed, "the biggest piece of fireworks a poor devil of a newspaper man ever had a chance to touch off. But, of course, I can't print it." "Why 'of course'T" "For the samo reason that a sane man doesn't peek down the muzzle of a loaded gun when he Is monkeying irlth the trigger. I want to live a little -while longer." Brouillard looked relieved. , "I thought, perhaps, it was on account of your investments," he said, "Not at the present writing." amended Harlan with a grin. "I got a case of cold feet when we had that little let-up a while back, and when the market opened I cleaned up and sent the sureenough little round dollars home to Ohio." "And still you won't print this?" "I'd like to; you don't know how much I'd like to. But they'd hang me and sack the shop. I shouldn't blame 'em. If what you have said here ever «ets into cold type. It's good-by Mlrapolis. Why, Brouillard, the whole United States would rise up and tell us to get off the map. You've made us look like thirty cents trying to block the wheels of a million dollars—and that Is about the real size of it, I guess." "Then it Is your opinion that if this were printed it would do the business?" "There isn't the slightest doubt about It." "Thank you, Harlan, that is what T wanted to find out—if I had made tt strong enough. It'll be printed. lit put it on the wires to the Associated Press. I was merely giving you the first hack at it." ••Gee—gosh! hold on a minute!" exclaimed the newsman, jumping up and snapping his fingers. "If I weren't such a dod-gasted coward! Let me run In a few 'It is allegedV, and I'll chance it." "No; it goes as It lies. There are no allegations. It is merely a string of cold facts, as you very well know. Print it If you Ifke. and- I'll see to it that they don't hang you or loot the office. I have two hundred of the safest men on my force under arms tonight, and we'll take care of you. I'm in this thing for blood, Harlan, and when I get through, this little obstruction tn the way of progress that Cortwright and his crowd planned, and that you and I and a lot of other fools and knaves helped to build, will be cooling Itself under two hundred feet of water." "Good Lord!'- said the editor, still unable to compass the barbaric suddenness of it. Then he ran his eye over the scratch sheets again. "Does this formal notice that the waste-gates will be closed three weeks from tomorrow go as it stands?" he Inquired. "It does. I have the department's authority. You know as well as I do that unless a fixed day is set there will be no move made. We are all trespassers here, and we've been warned off. That's all there is to i t And if we can't get our little belongings up into the hills in three weeks it's our loss: we had no business bringing them here," The editor looked up with a light of a new discovery in htf eyes. "You say 'we' and 'our.' That reminds me; Garner told me no longer ago than this afternoon that you are on record for something like a hundred thousand dollars' worth of choice Mirapoli* front feet. How about that?" Brouillard's smile was quite heartwhole. "I've kept my salary in a separate pocket Harlan. Bfsides that—well. I came here with nothing and 1 shall go away with nothing. The rest of tt was all stage money." "Say—by hen!" ejaculated the owner of the Spotlight Then, smiting the desk: "You ought to let me print that I'd run ft in red headlines across the top of the front page. But of coarse, you won't . . . Well, here goes for the fireworks and a chance of a soaped rope." And he pushed the bell button for the copy boy. Late as tt was when be left the Spotlight office, Brouillard waited on the corner for a Quadje&al ear. and. catch tag one, he waa presently whisked out to the ornate Ttna tn the eastern smbnrb. There wan a tight rn the hail and another tn a room to the rear, and st was Amy e s t answered his touch rt •>• s*C Tank j "No, 1 can't stay," he said, when she aaked him la. "But I had to come, 12 It waa only for a minute. The deed is done. I've had my nexu-to-the-last round-up with Mr. J. Wesley Cortwright, and tomorrow's Spotlight will fire the sunset gun (or Mirapolis. Is your father here?" "No. He and 8tevle are up at the mine. 1 am looking for them on every car." "When they come, tell your father It's time to hike. Are you all packedV She nodded. "Everything la ready." "All right Three of my teams will be here by midnight, at the latest The drivers and helpers will be good men and you can trust them. Don't let anything Interfere with your getting aafely up to the mountain tonight There'll be warm times In Gomorrah from this on and I want a free band—which I shouldn't have with you here." "Oh, I'm glad, glad!—and I'm Just as scared as I can be!" she gasped with true feminine inconsistency. "They will single you out first; what if I am sending you to your death, Victor! Oh, please don't go and break my heart the other way across by getting killed!" He drew a deep breath and laughed. "You don't know how good It sounds to hear you say that—and say it in that way. I sha'n't be reckless. But I'm going to bring J. Wesley and his crowd to book—they've got to go, and they've got to turn the 'Little Susan' loose." "They will never do that," she said sadly. "I'll make them; you wait and see." She looked up with the violet eyes kindling. "I told you once that you could do anything you wanted to—if you only wanted to hard enough. I believed it then; I believe it now." "No," he denied with a smile that was half sorrowful, "I can't make two hills without a valley between them. I've chased down the back track like a little man—for love's sake, Amy— and I've burned all the bridges behind me as I ran; namely, the sham deeds to the pieces of reservoir bottom I'd been buying. But when it is all over I shall be Just where I was when we began—exactly one hundred thousand dollars short of being able to say: 'Come, girl, let's go and get married.' " "But father owes you a hundred thousand dollars," she said quickly. "Not in a hundred thousand years, 0 most inconsistent of women! Didn't we agree that that money was poisoned? It was the purchase price of an immortal soul, and I wouldn't touch It with a pair of tongs. That Is why your father couldn't use It; It belonged to the devil and the devil wanted it back."

Tell your father— no, that isn't what I meant to say. it's this—" and hia arms went suddenly across the hundred-thousanddollar chasm. CHAPTER XXIII Exodus In the Yellowstone National park there is an apparently bottomless pit which can be Instantly transformed into a spouting, roaring Vesuvius of boiling water by the simple expedient of dropping a bar of soap into i t The Bpotlight went to press at three o'clock. By the earliest graying of dawn, and long before the sun had shown itself above the eastern Timanyonia. BrouUlard's bar of soap was melting and the Mirapolitan underdepths were beginning to heave. Like wildfire, the news spread from Up to lip and street to street, and by sunrise the geyser was retching and vomiting, belching debris of cries and maledictions, and pouring excited and riotous crowds into Chlgrlngo avenue. Most naturally, the Spotlight office was the first point of attack, and Harlan suffered loss, though tt wan inconsiderable. At the battering down of the doors the angry mob found ltaalf confronting the young reclamation service chief and four members of his staff. All armed. Brouillard spoke briefly and to the point "1 am the man who wrote that article you're been reading, and Mr. Harlan printed it as a matter of news. If you have anything to say to mm yon know whore to find me. Now, on and let Mr. Harlan's or somebody win get hurt Nobody stayed to press the argument at the moment An early-morning mob is proverbially Incoherent and incoheslve; and, besides, loaded Win cheaters in the hands of Ave determined men are apt to have an eloquence which la more or leas convincing. But with the opening of business the geyser spouted again. The exchanges were mobbed by eager seUers, each frenzied struggler hoping against hope that he might find someone simple enough to buy. At ten o'clock the bank closed—"Temporarily," the placard notice said. But there were plenty to believe that it would never open again. By noon the trading panic had exhausted itself a little, though the lobby and cafe of the Metropole were crowded, and anxious groups quickly formed around any nucleus of rumor or gossip in the streets. Between one and two o'clock, while Brouillard, Leshlngton and Anson were hastily eating a luncheon sent over to the mapping room from Bongras', Harlan drifted in. "Spill your news," commanded Leshlngton gruffly. "What's doing, and who's doing it?" "Nobody, and nothing much," said Harlan, answering the two queries as one. "The town is falling apart like a bunch of sand and the get-away has set in. Two full trains went east this forenoon, and two more are scheduled for this afternoon if the railroad people can get the cars here." "'Good-by, little girl, good-by,"' hummed Grlslow, entering In time to hear the report of the flight But Leshlngton was shaking his big head moodily. "Laugh about it if you can, but it's no Joke," he growled. "When the froth Is blown away and the bubbles quit rising, there are going to be some mighty bitter settlings left in the bottom of the stein." "You're right Leshlngton." said Harlan, gravely. "What we're seeing now is only the shocked surprise of it —as when a man says 'Ouch!' before he realizes that the dog which has bitten him has a well-developed case of rabies. Well come to the hydrophobic stage later on." By nightfall of thlB first day the editor's ominous prophecy seemed about to reach Its fulfillment The avenue was crowded again and the din and clamor was the roar of a mob infuriated. Brouillard and Leshlngton had Just returned from posting a company of the workmen guard at the mixers and crushers, when Grlslow, who had been scouting on the avenue, came in. "Harmless enough yet" he reported. "It's only some more of the get-away that Harlan was describing. Just the same, it's something awful. People are fairly climbing over one another on the road up the hill to the station— with no possible hope of getting a train before some time tomorrow. Teamsters are charging twenty-five dollars a load for moving stuff that won't find cars for a week, and they're scarce at the price." Leshlngton, who was not normally a profane man, opened his mouth and said things. "If the Cort wright crowd had one man In it with a single idea beyond saving his own miserable stake!** he stormed. "What are the spellbinders doing, Grixxyr The hydrographer grinned. "Cort' wright and a chosen few left this afternoon, hotfoot for Washington, to get the government to Interfere. That's the story they'd like to hare the people believe. But the fact is, they ran away from Judge Lynch.** T e a ; I think I see 'em coming back —not!" snorted the first assistant Then to Brouillard: "That puts tt up to us from this out Is there anything we can do?" Brouillard shook his head. "I dont want to stop the retreat I've heard from President Ford. The entire westtern division will hustle the business of emptying the town, and the quicker tt is done the sooner it will be over" For a tumultuous week the flight from the doomed city went on, and the overtaxed single-track railroad wrought miracles of transportation. Not until the second week did the idea of material salvage take root but. once started, it grew like Jonah's gourd. Hundreds of wrecking crews were formed. "It begins to look a little better.*1 said Anson on the day in the third week -when the army of governsnant laborers began to strip the final forms from the top of the great wall which now united the two mountain shoul dors and comptetety overshadowed and dominated the dismantled town. -If the avenue would only take tts hwnch and go, the agony would be waa the young chief's prediction, and the foreboding verified itself that night. Looting of a more or leas brazea sort had been going on from the first and by nine o'clock of the night of prediction a loosely organized mob of drink-maddened terrorists was drifting from street to street, and there were violence and Incendiarism to follow. Though the property destruction mattered little, the anarchy It waa breeding had to be controlled. Brouillard and Leshlngton got out their reserve force and did what they could to restore some semblance of order. It waa little enough; and by ten o'clock the amateur policing of the city had reduced itself to a double guarding of the dam and the machinery, and a cordoning of the Metropole. the reclamation service buildings, and the 8potllght office. For Harlan, the dash of sporting blood in his veins asserting itself, still stayed on and continued to Issue his paper. "I said I wanted to be in at the death, and for a few minutes tonight I thought I was going to be," he told Brouillard, when the engineer had posted his guards and had climbed the stair to the editorial office. Then he asked a question: "When is this little hell-on-earth going to be finally extinguished, Victor?" Instead of answering, Brouillard put a question of his own: "Did you know that Cortwright and Schermerhorn and Judge Williams came back this evening, Harlan?" "I did," said the newspaper man. "They are registered at the Metropole as large as life." "What's up?" "That Ls what I'd like to know. There's a bunch of strangers at the Metropole, too, a sheriff's posse, Poodles thinks; at least, there ls a deputy from Red Butte with the crowd." Harlan tilted back in his chair and scanned the celling reflectively. "This thing is getting on my nerve, old man. I wish we could clean the slate and all go home." "It Is going to be cleaned. Notices will be posted tomorrow warning everybody that the waste-gates will be closed promptly on the date advertised." "When ls it? Things have been revolving too rapidly to let me remember such a trivial Item as a date." "It Is the day after tomorrow, at noon." ' The owner of the Spotlight nodded. "Let her go, Gallagher. I've got everything on skids, even the presses. An revolr—or perhaps one should say, Au reservoir." Fresh shoutings and a crackling of pistols arose in the direction of the plaza, and Brouillard got up and went to a window. The red glow of other house burnings loomed against the somber background of Jack's mountain. "Senseless savages." he muttered, and then went back to the editor. "I don't like this Cortwright reappearance. Harlan. I wish I knew what tt means." "Let's see," said the newsman thoughtfully; "what is there worth taking that they didn't take in the saure qui pent? By Jove—say! Did old David Masslngale get out of J. Wesley's clutches before the lightning struck r "I wish I could say Tea,' and be sure of it" was the sober reply. "You knew about the thiering stock deal, or what you didn't know I told you.

Of course, there ls bound to be a future of some sort; but that is the present condition of affairs.** "How about those notes in the bank?

POSED WITH HIS 600 WIVES W h e n the B r i t i s h Captured Fumban the King Was Given a Ball and Reception. A reception and dance was given to the British force by the king of Kurnban shortly after the capture of this province from the German forces. The function was featured by a speech from the throne and the taking of a photograph of the king and hia ML' wives and 149 children. Soon after the last of the fighting In the province the conquerors accept ed an invitation from the king to visit the palace grounds, which open on the market place. Here they were met by the king, dressed in new flowing robes of blue with a blue muffler tied round his neck. After the soldiers were lined up at seats on either side of the market place the king made a short speech, first In his native tongue and then in pigeon English, admonishing his subjects to be kind and courteous to the new conquerors. Then the dance began. The orchestra was made up chiefly of various sized drums made of hollow trees and stretched skins. The only other instrument was a species of rattle, with which most of the natives were armed, and with which they kept remarkable time.

All patrons in the territory of those country postoffices ! for so many years have ever since their disbandment, been served by the rural 1 carriers and are being served today. The last small office in the country is Chilson. This office has hung on well, but of late there has been no great amount of business done at that place, as the rural routes from Howell and Brighton are serving the patrons. Neither does there seem to be any over anxious canidates for the office of late. So an order has been issued which wil go into effect June 1, placing the Chilson office on the retired list with ail the other country postoffices some 10 or 12 years ago, and all the patrons in that vicinity will receive their mail by rural delivery from Howell or Brighton.

A short time ago a gentleman who stands very high in the | financial and manufacturing world of distilled spirits c&me into my office, as I supposed, for a visit of courtesy.

No flower in all the garden series is tnore beloved than the Btar-eyed daisy, or marguerite. And perhaps no flower has undergone a more decided improvement than this same flower, which fills the meadow spaces with Its nodding white and In better soil looks Btmteller from the garden path. The daisy Bhould have a place In the garden. They make delightful bord e r s to beds of taller-growing annuals, and can be used very effectively In beds of spring-blooming bulbs. Daisies may be sown at Intervals for succession, in shallow boxes of light, rich soil. Cover the seed to about t h r e e times their own thickness, and press the soil firmly over them. Keep the box in a warm window, greenhouse o r hotbed. Transplant to new boxes and set out In the open ground when danger from frost Is past. Daisies can be sown In beds outside in August or September. They must be protected with atraw or litter through the winter and transplanted to their permanent position in the spring. The orange daisy, South African orange daisy, has become a great favorite. It was Introduced a few years ago and has been made much of at the flower shows and is used largely on big estates. It is excellent for bord e r s and as a pot-plant. THE WHITE CARNATION By BETTY PAKE. "The search for the pure white eartxatlon. one that will \ e e p its pure color for & long period, has never been quite successful It is a fact that the average variety remains under cultivation but a l e w years, and they are constantly running o u t They must, herefore, cons t a n t l y be replact-d by newer and more vigorous varieties grown from t h e seed. Often a carnation that produces beautiful write flowers for two or three years fails entirely after that time. The common garden soil will not do for the carnation. It should be composed of about three-fourths rich, dark loam and one-fourth well-rotted manure. This should be thoroughly mixed several times and by September the first cuttings Bhould be placed In boxes about five inches deep. Set the plants about ten inches apart. Syringe thoroughly with water until they have a good Btart. The plants should be Btaked in order to keep the flowers above the foliage. If you want large flowers you must disbud the plantb judiciously. Give them plenty of water and ventilation, and syringe with tcbacco extract to discourage the red spider. THE BEAUTY OF HYDRANGEAS By LIMA R. ROSE. One of the best late flowering, hardy shrubs is the hydrangea. While there are other shrubs that I like better, this one seems to be a favorite with the masses. It has the merit of extren* hardiness, easy culture, great floriferousness, late blooming and persistency. Us flowers lose their early whiteness aa the season advances, but in their pinky brown stage they are not without attractiveness, and even after snow comes they afford pleasing effects when seen against a background of pure white. In planting the hydrangeas. I would never advise using them singly. They are vastly more effective when grouped. By this means we secure for It a strength and dignity which single specimens never have. Planted thickly this plant produces a grand effect. Those who are In search of a plant that will grow i n a Q y rol1 a n d under almost any condition, and has hardiness enough to withstand the trying ordeal of the severest northern winter, will find the hydrangea the very thing they are looking for. , DETROIT—Cattle: Receipts, 1,554.

"Low-yielding acres, like boarder | cows, are often fatal to successful farming," according to J. C. McDowell of the office of farm management, United States department of agriculture, in the new year book. "Our farm survey records show that areas of poorly drained, compact and sour soils, or soils low in humus, greatly reduce net profits. Sometimes these records show that aa much as 30 per cent of the entire farm acreage does not produce enough to pay its way "One farm in Wisconsin, on which records were recently taken, has 40 acres of poorly drained land that in Its present condition is practically worthless. Twenty-five dollars per acre spent in drainage will make this 40-acre tract the equal of any in that district, and good land is selling there at $150 per acre. "The successful business man always tries to weed out all unprofitable enterprises and to expand those that pay a profit Unprofitable acres cannot always be disposed of as readily as boarder cows, but usually they can be improved until they become profit bearing. If the income from such land cannot be Increased it is quite possible that the labor spent upon it can be reduced until the income at leaBt pays a little more than the cost of labor. Itemize Before Purchasing. "In buying a farm, unprofitable acres that cannot easily be made profitable should ordinarily be considered as having little or no agricultural value. They may even be a burden to their owner, in which case they have a negative value. A farmer was abeut to buy a quarter-section farm In the com belt at $100 per acre. This appeared to him to be a very reasonable price for a farm in that region, until a careful analysis of Uie proposition called his attention to the large amount of waste land on the farm. Actual measurements and careful estimates furnished the following data: 80 acres rich, sandy loam, not stony, not rough, gently sloping, well drained; actual value $126 per acre; J125X80 $10,000 45 acres poor land, sandy, stony, rough, hilly, probably of little or no agricultural value: actual value , 0 SB acres poor pasture land, wet land that can be drained, but that cannot be drained at a profit; actual value $10 per acre; $10x36 350 Buildings 2,450 Total $12,900+160=180, .$12,800 "These figures gave the farm, Including buildings, a value of $S0 per acre, though a part of it was worth consid- FASTENING WIRES TO POST Difficult Problem Said to Have Been Successfully Worked Out—-Idea Looks Sensible.

An itemized study of the farm, acre by acre, and a detailed study of fences, buildings and other improvements, should always be made before purchasing. Such investigation often calls attention to enough unprofitable acres to stop the sale. Utilization of Unprofitable Acres. "To what extent and at what rate we shoul 1 attempt to decrease the number of unprofitable acres depends largely on the increased demand for agricultural products. The law of diminishing returns prevents the reclamation of waste land until the rising prices or cheaper methods of production make such action practicable. Frequently it pays better to spend time and money in the further improvement of acres that are now profitable rather than in the reclamation of less desirable land. "Much money and valuable time Is lost each year in almost every locality in the attempt to put unprofitable acres on a paying basis. Lack of satisfactory agricultural credit forces many a deserving family to waste time in trying to get a start on acres that moneyed men pass by. Misleading advertisements and inflated magazine articles have lured many a family to give up a comfortable living in the city to drag out a miserable existence in toil and worry on worthless land. Lack of knowledge of the business side of farming is largely responsible for loss in the management of unprofitable acres. The problem of how to prevent a waste of money, time and energy in the attempt to develop worthless land is worthy of careful study. At best such waste can only partially be prevented. The pity of it is that so much of this loss falls on those who can least afford to lose. "Every farmer who owns unprofitable land should make a detailed examination of his farm, acre by acre, to detect all unprofitable areas. Next, he should determine the approximate cost of making each acre pay its way. Such study will disclose what and how much is needed in the way of manure, commercial fertilizer, drainage or other preparation, to produce satisfactory crop yields. This analytical study of each portion of the farm will sometimes call attention to many acres that cannot be cultivated profitably. It is better to leave such land in permanent pasture, or even to let it lie idle, than to work it at a loss. The farm not only furnishes a home, but it is a place of business. As such, each enterprise and acre should receive individual attention, and, so far as practicable, the entire farm should be placed on a paying basis.*' won, for the question of how to fasten wire to concrete posts has been a difficult one.

Sometimes t h e little problems about some furnishing a r e a s difficult to solve a s t h e large ones, and like most p e t t y annoyances they a r e m o r e vexatious. "How shall we furnish t h e front h a l l ? " 1B a s frequently asked, as " b o w Bhall we furnish t h e living r o o m ? " Narrow Table W i t h Bench Beneath, Mirror Above, Sole Furnishing of a Small Hall. and t h e question is often h a r d e r t o answer because of t h e limitations of space, light, etc. Once in a while a thoroughly convenient article of furniture passes into disuse. Everyone rails against it. It Is jeered a t and derided and utterly condemned with t h e exclamation: "Why, I didn't know anyone ever used t h a t nowadays." P r e s t o ! Vanishes t h e offending object, only p e r h a p s to r e a p p e a r with gusto fifty years hence. The hall piece t h a t in now banished by fashion is t h e h a t rack—the poor old thing!

Unsightly and unhygienic was t h e verdict at t h e post-mortem. If furnishings a r e elaborate throughout, t h e hall pieces a r e , of course, correspondingly so. Simple t a s t e often calls for t h e most expensive materials. A hall m a y boast nothing more than a good piece of tapestry, a fine gothic chest, a n d a pair of torchienes, a paneled wall a n d mosaic floor, with a fine pelt thrown down on it—all this is simple enough—only one piece of furniture really—yet its cost would completely furnish t h e average home.

A. C. a year ago the College h a s scheduled a n o t h e r conference, for rural leaders this coining summer. T h e dateb a r e from July l'lth io 22d. During this time t h e College will offer, a well-rounded course of lectures dealing with all phases uf rural leadership. Supt. W a r r e n H. Wilson, of N e w York City, undoubtedly the g r e a t e s t authority ou t h e Rural Church today, will give ten lectures dealing with this subject. Prof. T. J. Meek, of J a m e s Milliken University, will give t e n lectures on "Old Testament P r o p h e t s , " aa interpreted from the historical, economic a n d sociological points of view. A course of talks on t h e educational activities of t h e church will be in charge of Rev. A. R. Atwood of Lansing. In addition to these t h e College will also offer a series of popular lectures on agricultural topics dealing with agricultural resources of Michigan, extension activities, horticulture, dairying, poultry raising, soils, etc. It will be t h e aim in these to provide a background for t h e right view of rural problems. T h e Michigan Agricultural College is coming to believe t h a t it has a responsibility in develiping t h e right kind of social success In country communities as well as economic success. In fact, Kenyon L. Butterfleld, prenid e n t of t h e M a s s a c h u s e t t s Agricultural College, just about epitomizes t h e situation when he says in his book, " T h e Country Church and t h e Rural Problem," "I hold t h a t t h e problem of t h e Country Church is t h e most important aspect of the rural problem. It touches the highest point in t h e direction of rural life. It sounds t h e deepest note in the harmonizing of the factors of a p e r m a n e n t rural civilization. It speaks t h e most eloquent word in t h e struggle to maintain t h e s t a t u s of t h e farming class," Home Economics Conference, The M. A. C. has also scheduled, for tho coming summer, a conference in Home Economics, designed for teachers of this subject in schools, club women, and all others interested.

A steer feeding experiment, recent- j ly concluded a t t h e Michigan Agricul- : tural College, shows t h a t steers can ; be fed in Michigan a t a profit. j Eighteen steers were sold on t h e Chicago m a r k e t for $1,978.47. T h e i r . total cost w a s $1,842.79, giving a . profit of $135.68 or 7 p e r cent on the | i n v e s t m e n t for five months. In flgur- ] ing cost, t h e cost of feeds and mar- | k e t i n g w a s added to t h e Initial cost of 7c p e r pound. Feed w a s figured as follows: Cottonseed meal, $38.00 per t o n ; alfalfa hay, $12.00; corn, 70c per bushel, corn silage, $4.40 per t o n ; cull beans $15.00 p e r ton. F o r t h e part of this feed which a farmer could produce himself t h e price allowed is high enough to g u a r a n t e e a very good profit on Its production ,as well a s getting a profit from t h e steers fed. F o r t h e purposes of experiment t h o s t e e r s wars divided into t h r e e lots of six steers each. Each lot w a s given t h e s a m e feed except g r a i n which w a s cottonseed m e a l for o n e . bean meal for one a n d cooked b e a n s for t h e third. It is interesting to n o t e t h a t t h e profits on t h e t h r e e lots were $58.90. $41.58 a n d $35.20 respectively. T h a t t h e e x p e r i m e n t showed such a good profit Is d u e i n p a r t t o t h e spread of t w o cents b e t w e e n t h e buyi n g a n d selling price.- H a d this difference been bnt o n e a n d one-half cents t h e profit would h a v e ben a b o u t t per c e n t T h i s b e a r s out t h e general belief t h a t in o r d e r to m a k e money feeding c a t t l e a difference of one sad one-half c e n t s between cost and sale price should b e obtained.

Washington—On the eve of the receipt of Genera] Carranza's new not*', which officials believe will renew the demand for withdrawal of American troops from Mexico, and with another conference between American and Mexican military commanders about to begin, a protest was received at the White House reporting serious difficulties between American oil operators at Tampico and th* Mexican authori ties. The protest came in the form of a telegram addressed to rPesident Wilson by 84 American citizens residing at Tampico, who had held a mass meeting and determined to lay their case before the government. They declared the Mexican military officials wTere promulgating decrees designed to makt it impossible for Americans to do business in the country and told horn one of their number had been arrested and imprisoned for three hours because he refused to pay his employes wages fixed by the authorities in excess of terms previously Agreed upon with the men. The signers of the message asserted their right to protection from the American government, and announced their determination not to comply with the arbitrary and confiscatory orders and decrees by the Mexicans. White House officials sent the protest to the state department for investigation. Other complaints already have been received regarding recent 1 decrees by the Carranza government and it is probable there will be representations on the subject as soon as the controversy over the presence of American troops in Mexico Is adjusted. "It has become practically lmpos-, •ible for an American to do business of any nature in this section of the country," the Tampico message said, "because of restrictions placed by the authorities that we believe to be directed primarily against American citicens.

"Today's the day! In the hustle I had forgotten it, and I'll hot old David has— if he hasn't simply ignored it. That accounts for the reunion at the Metropole !" "Don't worry," said Harlan easily. "The bank has gone, vanished, shut up shop. At the end of the ends, I suppose, they can make David pay; but they can't very well cinch him for not meeting his notes on the dot." "Massingale doesn't really owe them anything that he can't pay," Brouillard asserted. "By firing and writing and digging up figures, we found that the capitalizing stockholders, otherwise J. Wesley Cortwrlght, and possibly Schennerhorn, have actually invested fifty-two thousand dollars, or, rather, that amount of Massingale's loan has been expended in equipment and pay rolls. Three weeks ago the old man got the smelter superintendent over here from Red Butte and arranged for an advance of fifty-two thousand dollars on the ore In stock, the money to be paid when the first train of ore cars should be on the way in. It was paid promptly In New York exchange, and Massingale Indorsed the draft over to me to be used in the directors' meeting, which was never held." "Go over and flash Massingale's fiftytwo thousand dollars at 'em. They'll turn loose. I'll bet a yellow cur worth fifteen cents that they're wishing there was a train out of this little section of Sheol right now. Hear that!" The crash of an explosion rattled the windows, and the red loom on the Jack's mountain side of the town leaped up and became a momentary glare. The fell spirit of destruction, of objectless wreck and ruin, was abroad, and Brouillard turned to the stairway door. "I'll have to be making the rounds again," he said. "The Greeks and Italians are too excitable to stand much of this. Take care of yourself; I'll leave Grif and a dozen of the trusties to look after the shop." BBS CHAPTER XXIV §{§ The Terror When Brouillard reached the sidewalk the upper avenue was practically deserted. But in the eastern residence district, and weir around to the north, new storm-centers were marked by the increasing number of fires. Brouillard stopped and faced toward the distant and invisible Timanyonls. A chill autumn breeze was sweeping down from the heights and the blockading wall of the great dam turned It Into eddies and dust-pillared whirls'dancing In the empty street. Young Griffith sauntered up with his Winchester In the hollow of his arm. "Anything new?'* he asked, "No," Baid Brouillard. "I was Just thinking that a little wind would go a long way tonight, with these crazy house-burners loose on the town." Then he turned and walked rapidly to the government headquarters, passed the sentry at the door of the mapping room; and out of the fireproof vault where the drawings and blue-print duplicates were kept took a small tin dispatch box. He had opened the box and had transferred a slip of paper from It to the leather-covered pocket field book which served him for a wallet, when there was a stir at the door and Castner hurried in, looking leas the clergyman than the hard-working peace of* fleer. "More bedlam," he announced. "I want Gassman or Handler and twenty or thirty good men. The-mob has gone from wrecking and burning to murder' ing. Tegleg* John was beaten to death in front of his saloon a few minutes ago. It Is working this way. There were three fires in the p l a n as I came through." "See Grtslow at the commissary and tell him I sent you," said the chief. "I'd go with you. but I'm due at the Metropole." "Good. Then Miss Amy got word to you? I was just about to deliver her message." - "Miss Massingale? Where is she, and what was the message V demand* ed Brouillard. T h e n you haven't heard T The t i t - tle Susan' is in the hands of a sheriffs posse, and David Massingale is under arrest on some trumped-up charge selling ore for his individual account, or something of that sort MUs Amy didnt go Into particulars, hot she told mm that she had heard the short* toy It was a psaftitHry "But where is she now?" stormed Brouillard. "Over at the hotel. 1 supposed you knew; you said you were going there." Brouillard snatched up the dispatch box and flung it into the fireproof. While he was locking the door Castner went in search of Grislow, and when Brouillard faced about, another man stood In the missionary's place by the mapping table. It was Mr. J. Wesley CortwrighL "I didn't think I'd have to ask a favor of you again, Brouillard, but needs must when the devil drives," he began, with an attempted assumption of his former manner. "We didn't know —the newspapers didn't tell us anything about this frightful state of affairs, and—" Brouillard had suddenly lost his desire to hurry. "Sit down, Mr. Cortwrlght," he said. "I was just coming over to see you— to congratulate you and Mr. Schennerhorn on your return to Mirapolls. We have certainly missed the mayor, not to mention the president of the common council." "Of course—yes," was the hurried rejoinder. "But that's all over. You said you'd get us, and you did. I don't bear malice. If you had given me one more day I'd have got you; the stuff that would have broken your neck with the Washington people was all written and ready to put on the wires. But that's past and gone, and the next thing is something else. There Is a lot of money and securities locked up in the Niquoia bank vault. We've come to clean up, and we brought a few peace officers along from Red Butte for a guard. The miserable scoundrels are scared stiff; they won't stir out of the hotel. Bongras tells me you've got your forc« organized and armed—can't you lend us fifty or a hundred huskies to keep the mob off while we open that bank vault?" Brouillard's black eyes snapped, and the blood danced In his veins. The opportunity for which he would have bartered Ormuz' treasure had come to him—was begging him to use it. "I certainly can," he admitted, answering the eager question and emphasizing the potentiality. "But will you? that's the point Well make it worth your while. For God's sake, don't say no, Brouillard! There's pretty well up to a million in that vault, counting odds and ends and left-overs. Schennerhorn oughtn't to have left it. I thought he had sense enough to stay and see It taken care of. But now—" "But now the mob is very likely to wreck the building and dynamite the vault, you were going to say. I think it is more than likely, Mr. Cortwrlght, and I wonder that it hasn't been done before this. It would have been done tf the rioters had had any Idea that you'd left anything worth taking. And It would probably wreck you and Mr. Schennerhorn If It should get hold of you; you've both been burned In effigy half a dozen times since you ran away." "Oh, good Lord!" shuddered the magnate. "Make It two hundred of your men, and let's hurry. You won't turn us down on this, Brouillard?" "No. It is no part of our duty to go and keep the mob off while you save your stealings, but well do it And from the noise they are making down that way, I think you are wise in suggesting haste. But first there is a question of common justice to be settled. An hour ago, or such a matter, you Bent a part of your sheriff's posse up to seize the Tittle Susan' and to arrest David Massingale—" "IVs—it's a lie!" stammered Cortwrlght "Somebody has been trying to backcap me to you!" Brouillard looked up, frowning. "You are a good bit older man than I am, Mr. Cortwrlght, and I sha'n't punch your head. But you'll know why l ought to when I tell you that my informant is Miss Amy Massingale. What have you done with old David V The man who had lost his knack of bluffing came down and stayed down. "He's—he's over at the hoteL" he •stammered. •TJnder guard r -Well—y-yes." Brouillard pointed to the telephone on the wall. "Go and call up your crowd and get it here. Tell Judge Williams to bring the stock he Is holding, and Schermerhorn to bring the Massingale notes, and your man Jackson to bring the stock-book. Well have a directors' meeting that was called, and wasn't held, three It was a crude little expedient, bat It ssmeed. Cortwrlght tramped to the 'phone and carted and swore at ft is> til he had hm man at the other «ad of the wire. The man was the lawyer, aa it appeared, and Cortwrlght abused him spitefully. "You've balled it—balled It beautifully!'' he shouted. "Come over here to Brouillard's office and bring Shermerhorn and the stock and the notes and Jackson and the secretary's books and Massingale and your Infernal self! Get a move, and get It Quick! We stand to lose the whole loaf because you had to butt In and sweep up the crumbs first!" When the procession arrived, aa It did In an Incredibly short time, Brouillard laid down the law. "We don't need these," he said curtly, indicating the two deputies who came to bring David Massingale. And when they were gone; "Now, gentlemen, get to work and do business, and the less time you waste the better chance there will be for your bank salvage. Three requirements I make: you will turn over the stock, putting Mr. MaBsingale in possession of his mine, without incumbrance; you will cancel and surrender his notes to the bank; and you will give him a document, signed by all of you. acknowledging the payment in full of all claims, past or pending. While you are straightening things out. I'll ring up the yards and rally your guard." Cortwrlght turned on the lawyer. "You hear what Brouillard says; fix it, and do it suddenly." It was done almost before Brouillard had made Leshtngton, in charge of the yards, understand what was wanted. "Now a note to your man at the mine to make him let go without putting us to the trouble of throwing him over the dump," said the engineer, when he had looked over the stock transfers, examined the canceled notes, and read and witnessed the signatures on the receipt in fulL Cortwrlght nodded to the lawyer, and when Williams began to write again the king of the promoters turned upon Brouillard with a savage sneer. "Once more you've had your price." he snarled bitterly. "You and the old man have bilked us out of what we spent on the mine. But we'll call it an even break If you'll hurry that gang of huskies." "We'll call it an even break when it Is one." retorted Brouillard; and after he had gathered up the papers he took the New York check from his pocketbook, indorsed it, and handed it to Cortwrlght. "That is what was spent out of the hundred thousand dollars you had Mr. Massingale charged with, as nearly as we can ascertain. Take it and take care of It; it's real money." He had turned again to the telephone to hurry Leshington, had rung the call, and was chuckling grimly over the collapse of the four men at the end of the mapping table as they fingered the slip of money paper. Suddenly It was borne In upon him that there was trouble of some sort at the door—there were curses, a blow, a mad rush; then . . . It was Stephen Massingale who had fought his way past the door-guarding sentry and stood blinking at the group at the far end of the mapping board. "You're the noun' dog I'm lookin' for!" he raged, singling out Cortwrlght when the dazzle of the electrics permitted him to see. "You'll rob an old man first, and then call him a thief and set the sheriff on him, will you—?" Massingale's pistol was dropping to the firing level when Brouillard flung away the telephone earpiece and got between. Afterward there was a crash like a collision of worlds, a whirling, dancing medley of colored lights fading away to gray and then to darkness, and the engineer went down with the avenger of wrongs tightly locked In his arms. After the period of darkness had passed and Broufllard opened his eyes again upon the world of things as they are, he had a confused Idea that he had overslept shamefully and that the Indulgence had given him a bad headache. The next thought was that the headache was responsible for a set of singular hallucinations. His blanket bunk In the sleeping shack seemed to have transformed Itself Into a white bed with pillows and snowy sheets, and the bed was drawn up beside an open window through which he could look out, or seem to look out upon a vast sea dimpling in the breeze and reflecting the sunshine so brightly that it made his headache a darting agony. When he turned his face to escape the blinding glare of the sun on the sea the hallucinations became soothingly comforting, not to say ecstatic Someone was sitting on the edge of the bed; a cool band was laid on his forehead; and when he could again see straight he found himself looking up into a pair of violet eyes In which the tears were trembling. "You are Amy-^and this is that other world you used to talk about isn't it?" he asked feebly. The cool hand slipped from his forebead to his lips, as if to warn him that he must not talk, and he went through the motions of kissing It Whan it was withdrawn he broke the silent prohibition promptly. T h e way to keep me from talking is to do It all yomrself; what happened to mo last night r She shook her head aorrowrully. "The 'last night' you mean was thrtx weeks ago. Stevle was trying to shoot Mr. Cortwrlght in your office and you got between them. Do you remember t h a t ? " •'Perfectly." he dald "L3ut it still seema as if tt were only last night. Where am I now?—not that It makes any difference, so long as I'm with you." "You are at home—our home; at the 'Little Susan,' Mr. Leshington had the men carry you up here, and Mr. Ford ran a special train all the way from Denver with the doctors, j Stevie's bullet struck you in the head, and —and we all thought you were go- j Ing to die." i "I'm not." he asserted, in feebly desperate determination. "I'm going to live and get to work and earn a bun- I dred thousand dollars, so I can say, * Come, little girl—' " Again the restraining hand was laid upon his lips, and again he went through the motions of kissing it. | "You mustn't talk!" she insisted.' "You said you'd let me." And when j he made the sign of acquiescence, she > went on: "At first the doctors wouldn't give us any hope at all; they said you might live, but you'd—you'd never— never remember—never have your reason again. But yesterday—" "Please!" he pleaded. "That's more than enough about me. I want to know what happened." "That night, you mean? All the things that you had planned for. Father got the mine back, and Mr. Leshington and the others got the riot quelled after about half of the city was burned." "But Cortwrlght and Schennerhorn— I promised them—" "Mr. Leshington carried out your promise and helped them get the money out of the bank vault before the mob sacked the Niquoia building and dynamited it. But at the hotel they were arrested on the order of the bank examiner, and everything was taken away from them. We haven't heard yet what is going to be done with them." "And Gomorrah?" he asked. She slipped an arm under his Bhoulders and raised him so he could look out upon the mountain-girt sea dimpling under the morning breeze. "There is where it was," she said soberly, "where it was, and is n o t and never will be again, thank God! Mr Leshington waited until everybody had escaped, and then he shut the wasteway gates." Brouillard sank back upon the pillows of comfort and closed his eyes. "Then it's all up to me and the hundred thousand," he whispered. "And 111 get it . . . honestly this time." The violet eyes were smiling wheD he looked Into them again. "Is she—the one incomparable s h e - worth it, Victor?" "Her price is above rubles, as 1 told you once a long time ago." "You wouldn't let pride—a false pride—stand in the way of her happiness?" "I haven't any; her love has made me very humble and—and good, Amy, dear. Don't laugh: it's the only word; I'm Just hungering and thirsting after righteousness enough to be half-way worthy of her." "Then I'll tell you something else that has happened. Father and Stevie have reorganized the 'Little Susan' Mining company, dividing the stock into four equal parts—one for each of us. You must take your share, Victor It will break father's heart if you don't, He says you got it back for him after it was hopelessly lost, and that 1B true." "Kiss me, Amy, girl, and then go and tell your father that he Is a simplehearted old spendthrift, and I love him. And if you could wire Castner, and tell him to bring a license along—" "Oh boy—foolish boy!" she said. "Wait; when you are well and strong again. . . •" But she did not make him wait for the first of the askings; and after a healing silence had fallen to show the Heedlessness of speech between those who have come through darkness into light he fell asleep again, perhaps to dream that the quieting hand upon his forehead was the touch of Love, angel of the bright and shining way, summoning him to rise up and go forward as a soul set free to meet the dawning day of fruition. THE END. Velocity of Wind. In meteorological terms a strong wind Is anything from 24 to 37 miles an hour; a gale from 38 to 55 miles, and a storm from 56 to 75 miles. Beyond that It may be described aa a hurricane. In the convulsion which destroyed^gerTay bridge in December, 1S79, the anemometer registered gusts of wind which exceeded 100 miles an hour. The connection between the velocity and the pressure of the wind is not yet known with absolute certainty, but roughly speaking (wind of 40 miles) produces a pressure of eight pounds to the square foot and 61 miles a pressure of 13 pounds. The British Association Committee on Wind Pressure has recorded cases of eight to ninety pounds to the square foot--London CnronJole. Accompanying Industries Also Prove Highly Profitable. The cheese Industry throughout western Canada today is in a nlghly nourishing condition and la bound In a very short time to become much more important. The war has created a great demand for that article, and its use abroad has given it a lot of useful advertising. The article known aa Canadian cheese is now sought not only by the soldier in the trenches, but by the ordinary civilian consumer, •vho, having used it, is quick to appreciate its value. Tins means that after the war there will be a demand created for it that would not otherwise have been. Up to the present the war needs have limited the local supply, but with the increased effort that is now being put forth it is hoped that this will be met. As a matter of course the prices are high, and the farmers who contribute to the cheese factories are making money. The cheese season is now fully open and there is every prospect of an excellent year because the high price which obtained last year will undoubtedly be maintained this season. Western Canada has all the natural resources for the making of cheese, the feed and the cool nights, two things essential, and in time it is bound to become one of the finest cheese countries of the continent. The lower foothills of Alberta, used only at the present time as ranges or for»no purpose, will in time produce cheese in great quantities, and doubtless will soon equal the famous uplands of Denmark. The cool nights mean the better keeping of milk and cream and cheese, and that Is a great thing for the industry, especially when combined with possibilities of cattle feed Buch aa nxist on the long slopes from the Rockies eastward. The hog market, which may be classed as an adjunct of farming, is an exceedingly good one, and the low cost at which the feed can be produced, coupled with the high prices realized, make this industry very profitable. One of the first thoughts that occur to the mind of the average prospective pettier is the likelihood of suitable markets. In this connection the following table will be illuminating. It is supplied by the P. Burns company, packers and exporters, of Calgary, and shows the average monthly price paid for hogs for the six years 1910 to 1915 inclusive. When one considers the low initial cost of the land and the small overhead cost of maintenance and feed, these prices challenge comparison. 1910 1911 1912 1913 1914 1915 7¾ 8 8 7¾ 7¾ 8½ 8½ 8 7¾ 8 8½ 7½ sy4 8¾ 71¾ 9 8¼ 7 8½ 8 7¼ 8½ 8 January. .

With such prices available for hogs the fanner has a market for everything his farm produces, as there is practically no farm product which cannot be converted Into good hog flesh. The uncertainty of results which attends grain fanning even under most favorable conditions is removed when the settler goes in for raising hogs, beef and dairy products. With Western Canada's cheap lands, heavy crops, and climate free from diseases of stock, the stock farmer is as sure of success as anyone can be.—Advertisement. No Lack of Rations.

(From the United States Department at A*~riculturt>.) The treatment of seed potatoes with formaldehyde or wish corrosive sublimate has been recommended for many years a s a preventive of scab and other diseases carried on the tubers. Such treatment is, on the whole, profitable, but has several limitations which should be clearly recognized to prevent disappointment, according to the specialists of the department The object of disinfecting seed pota toes Is to destroy the germs of scab and other surface parasitea which might otherwise be planted with the seed and Infect the new crop. Only surface Infections are reached by this method. It is only partially effective against deep pits of common scab. Formaldehyde is less effective than corrosive Bublimate against the black sclerotla or resting bodies of rhizoctonia, or russet scab, and against pow dery scab. Neither chemical, as ordinarily used, will destroy silver scurf. Either one will kill surface infections of blackleg, but neither fusarium wilt nor late blight Infection in potato tubers can be reached by any seed treat ment, nor can any of the nonparasitic diseases of potatoes, such as mosaic leaf roll, and curly dwarf, be prevented. See Farmers' Bulletin 544 for description of these troubles. Clearly, therefore, the most important precaution against these diseases la to select clean, disease-free seed potatoes from healthy, vigorous plants, as determined by field inspection during the growing season and at harvest. Seed treatment should then be applied as an additional precaution. Soil Conditions and Potato Diseases Soil conditions have an important relation to potato tuber diseases, and many of these are widely spread throughout the country, perhaps naor poorly drained soils. Blackleg, on the other hand, Is carried by Infected se«d. No potatoes showing a deep brown discoloration at the stem end should be planted. Sulphur tends to prevent common scab, it is not a substitute for corrosive sublimate or formaldehyde, but is a good drier for cut seed. Applied to scab-infected soils at the rate oi 500 pounds per acre It reduces the scab, but such heavy applications cannot be generally recommended a s profitable. Preliminary experimental trials are advised. How to Disinfect Seed. The formaldehyde treatment consists of soaking the potatoes, before cutting, for two hours in a solution made by adding one pint of formal- Potato Affected With Russet Scab, Showing Russeting and Cracking Associated With Rhizoctonla of Western Potato. tlve to some soils. Common scab Is favored by a neutral or slightly alkaline soil, and seldom gives trouble In acid soils. It is therefore Increased by liming and by fresh stable manure, wood ashes, and alkaline fertilizers, such as nitrate of soda and ground bone, while acid phosphate and sulphate of ammonia tend to diminish scab. Rhizoctonla occurs to some extent In nearly all soils, but appears to attack potatoes most when t h e conditions are unfavorable to the best development of t h e potato plant Bring the land to an ideal state of tilth to minimise loss from rhizoctonla. Powdery scab Is worst on cold, w e t TREATING SCOURS IN HORSES Potato Affected With Commod Scab. dehyde to 30 gallons of water. The solution can be used repeatedly. The gas treatment is no longer recommended. Corrosive sublimate is used at the rate of 1-1,000 for one and one-half to two hours. Dissolve two ounces of the salt in hot water and dilute to 16 gallons. This Is a deadly poison. Use with great care. It must also be kept in wood, porcelain, or glass vessels, as It attacks metal. It is more effective than formaldehyde, particularly against rhizoctonia and powdery scab. Do not use the same solution more than three times, as the strength diminishes with each lot of potatoes soaked. To treat large quantities, Bet several barrels on a slightly elevated platform. Fit a plug In a hole in the bottom of each barrel, fill with potatoes, cover with solution, let stand two hours, draw off solution, and pour Into another barrel. Increase the number of barrels In proportion to the quantity to be treated. Another method is to use a large wooden vat or trough, into which the potatoes In Backs are lowered by a rope and pulley and later hauled out, drained, and dried on slatted racks. Seed potatoes may be treated several weeks before planting, provided they are not reinfected by storing in old containers or storage bins.

As convenient a way a s any for cutting spinach is to use a sharp hoe to slice off the large plants as soon as they reach the edible size, thus leaving the smaller ones for a week or two to grow larger. By so doing the season can be somewhat extended without risk of having the plants develop seed stalks, which they will start to do at the first hint of warm weather.

Georgette Crops Continues a Close Second to Chiffon in Favor — W h i t e 8llk Net Much Uaed by Smart Dreaamakere. Brer since the mill people learned to make chiffon cloth that was transparent and serviceable, women have gladly accepted it for blouses. Often they adopt the French trick of putting in a shoulderless lining of flesh-colored or white lace, and this, like many other things founded on the French knowledge of thrift and economy, keeps the garment in better condition and makes it give longer service, v This lining is loose and is made like a deep girdle, and instead ^ > Dainty Blouse of W h i t e Organdie W i t h Collar and Cuffs Embroidered In Light Blue. of attaching it in even the flimsiest way to the outside fabric, it is better to give it shoulder straps of narrow, flesh-colored satin ribbon. As a rival to chiffon cloth, georgette crepe has proven the most successful fabric. Its predecessors were failures, but it serves the need. It will remain In fashion as far ahead as a prophet can see, and yet it is having to share the honors of the hour with several other fabrics that have been brought to the front. Fine, colored muslins, solid and striped, are in the forefront of fashion, and white and colored organdies, which have been so extensively used for neckwear, have been cordially taken up by the makers of blouses, The plain white organdie waists are embroidered with one or more colors, sometimes in the simple and everpleasing design of scallops, again \p polka dots and triangles of brilliant red and blue, green, black, and yellow. Because polka-dot frocks are in fashion, we 'will be able to wear separate blouses of polka-dot fabrics with the pleased feeling that we are quite ID the middle of the picture. Taffeta and satin are not looked upon with any degree of warmth, but taffeta is applied to chiffon and then embroidered in gold and silver, to build up an o r nate blouse. White silk net of such a thinness of weave that one is caused to mistake it for tulle, has crept downward in the scale of dressing from a ball gown to a blouse. Its acceptance by the smart dressmakers for this purpose leads the way for the new net* that have come over from France foi gowns, such as point d'esprit and the net with the square or dot woven in i t The former is especially attractive for a blouse to be worn with a thin serge or silk s u i t Everyone knows by this time that the smartest of French blouses drops over the skirt instead of going undei it, after the manner of a miniature Russian blouse. Cheruit sent this out in white organdie, with a saah of colored silk, and it has led the way for a dozen other conceptions by our own dressmakers. One of the most successful ways la which it has been copied is in colored silk Jersey, touched up with a simple embroidered design in other brilliant colors, and held in by a wide belt of knitted silk like a man's cravat, fastened with a large, oblong silver buckle. Some of these blouses are in whits with a Pierrot design of black embroidery, but others, intended fot country wear, are of yellow, turquois« blue, and apple green. They fasten down the left side In a straight tin* from shoulder to hem and have a loose, mufflerlike collar and also fastens at the side, under the left ear. The majority of the sleeves are long in the summer blouses, as well as loose, and end in an ornamental cuff. They are Just as apt to have a high neck as a low neck.

There La naturally much talk in war time rations and food supply, and the posoibillty or probability of starving out one or other of the belligerents. But It 1B amazing what peo pie will eat at u pinch. A recent arctic explorer seriously advised the wearing of akin clothing in preferences to woolen, simply and solely because, if the worst came to the worst, one's outfit could be stewed for a meal, or at any rate given to the dogs! Well, when a man finds enjoyment and a sort of inward satisfaction in a stew made of his vest, bis shoelaces. and his sledge gear, he must be pret ty "peckish," and when he gets back to civilization he will make a model husband, never likely to turn up his nose at cold mutton on washing days. The bishop of Yukon thinks nothing of eating his boots. He had probably declared he was ready for that operation many a time when he was a boy, but he has actually done it since he came to man's estate—in his case, the great gold fields of arctic Alaska.

DECORATION FOR SOFT SILKS Many Ideas Have Been Put Forward, Some Highly Decorative and Some in Quieter Forms. GORGEOUS EVENING GOWN Quaint medallions and bouquets and prim little baskets of flowers are scattered over the surface of soft silks. Rings of several colors and of irregular shapes are dropped at widely spaced Intervals over other silks, and on others highly decorative patterns are used. Lovely georgette crepes have baskets of flowers scattered over the surface. A fine taffeta broche which combines crispness and softness In Just the right degree is ornamented with a little flower which never grew on land or sea. Stripes are very fashionable and are cleverly used. Gay-patterned linings are used in coats and suits. Delicate organdie embroideries are used in a number of dainty ways; many are lightly touched in color, especially old bine and delicate rose. Embroidered nets touched in color are used for entire frocks as weil as for trimmings. MAKE WORK FOR LAUNDRESS Tub Petticoats W i t h Colored Ruffles Are to Be the Correct Things for t h f Summer Garments. Six yards Is the correct width for a summer petticoat this season and one cannot help pitying the poor laundress who has had a Ions; and blessed rest from starching and fluting crisp petticoat trills. Some petticoats to be •ore own to but three yards, but these are the most inexpensive and humble models. As the price advances the width advances,, and the number of trills also. Four ruffles of embroidery, overlapping from knee to hem, if a pretty trimming; especially when the embroidery is the fine scallop-anddot kind always la good taste. A new petticoat which is already very popular has four ruffles of flee lawn edged with narrow handkerchief hems in some pretty color; and the ruffles are stitched to the petticoat with colored threads to match. With pink or blue edged trills and stitching, these new tub petticoats are really enchanting. A Colored Malaprop. Mistress—So the automobile almost ran you down, did it, Hannah?

At a senate executive session consent was obtained to waive its rule requiring three days' delay after a favorable vote on confirmation before the president is notified of the senate's action, and the president signed Mr. Brandeis' commission. British Headquarters in France, via London—Around famous Hill 60 and Sanctuary wood near Yprea) the Canadians have been doing the atlffest fighting of their experience in the course of the last two days' action. They have held the entire front attacked and, unless the fighting spreads, this is entirely their battle. Tike German gu&c had been relatively Quiet for some days, when they suddenly^ opened up the heaviest bombardment any Canadian veteran has known, using all kinds of gains from heavy howitzers to trench mortars, not only battering the trenchesi but covering a wide area of ground in the rear to prevent the bringing up of supports, "But 1B was not this time, as in the earlier battles on the Ypres salient, when the Germans four shells to one," "The British guns returned equal volumes on the Germans after they were In our trenches." Under support of gunfire the Canadian battalions, which Include many Americans, maintaining the traditions of the finst contingent last year at St. Jullen, immediately turned on the Germans in a series of J •"- ^ ^ ¾ W S £ * 3 i T H E MICHIGAN COAL MINES the position which they had lost. Parties rushed in at different points, bombing and bayonettlng right and left, and before their fierce work was ended, they had regained all but a few yards. - The German advance had been made over a front of 3,000 yards from Ypres-Comines railway to Hooge Point This was the most extensive front of any recent attack, and the Canadians responded to the test coolly and skillfully. In the Hooge sector, the German attack was stopped with heavy loss. The perplexity over the first news of the battle between the British and German fleets has been succeeded by satisfaction as fuller accounts are received. The Canadian troops and the German* have been battling fiercely on the Ypres salient. The German guns opened up several days ago, deluging the Canadian positions and the surrounding territory with shells. Then the German infantry advanced along an extended front of almost two miles. In a series of counter-attacks in which bomb and bayonet played an important part, the Canadians regained most of the lost ground and have reorganized their positions. NAVA1 BATTLE IN NORTH SEA GREATEST EVER British and German Losses Are Seemingly About Evenly Balanced According to Latest Reports )?mofrancf *fr >te « FARMER'S GREAT (Conducted by the National Woman's CUriutian Temperance Union.) STEAMER PARA PICKS UP THREE GERMAN SAILORS An Unofficial Report Says That Eight German Vessels Are Trapped in Danish Waters To Settle definite a Labor Dispute An Close Down Is Made. In- Latest official reports as to the losses of ships in the naval battle In the North sea follow. British—Three battle cruisers (Queen Mary, Indefatigable and Invincible), three armored cruiser* (Defense, Black Prince and W a r r i o r ) , and eight destroyers. The British report as to the German losses says they were two battleships, two battle cruisers, four light cruisers, six destroyers and one submarine. The British admlralty) in addi tlon, has admitted that the battleship Marlborough was struck by a torpedo, but declares she was towed safely to port It denies the German report that the dread. naught Warsplte was sunk, although conceding that she was damaged by gunfire. Saginaw—As a result of a disagreement over the new scale, all coal mines in the Michigan district have closed for an Indefinite period and all work will be suspended. This was assured when the Joint conference of miners and operators, with Commissioner Thomas W. Davis, adjourned sine die. The Michigan scale is based on the scale adopted in the competitive district and one of the changes effected in that district this year was the ehange from the screened t0 the mine run baBis on coal mined. This change is accepted, of course, for the Michigan district, but a difference of opinion developed in conference over the method of determining the mine run. It proved impossible to reconcile the views of the miners and operators. It is likely that the whole matter will now go to the national officers of the federation for adjustment. The closing down of the mines will affect approximately 1,500 men. INSULT TO EMBLEM: JAILED BIG PREPAREDNESS PARADE Pastor Must Serve Thirty Days in Jail — * and Pay s Fine of $1,000.

The demonstration was declared to be a protest against "the attempt to question our loyalty because of a natural sympathy with the j I*™ he caused to be distributed some land of our forefathers in1 * struggle weeks ago. Before he was arraigned London.—The receipt in London of details of the naval battle in the North sea makee the result of the engagement considerably more comforting from the British standpoint tan was indicated by the earlier reports. Although the admiralty declines to make specific announcements of the destruction of German ships until definite verification has been obtained, it appears from the information now available that the German loss was sonsiderably higher than was at first announced. Furthermore and perhaps for the comfort of the inhabitants of tin British isles who are dependent upon the fleet for protection of still more importance, it is established that the main British fleet was not engaged and defeated, as would appear from the German reports received here, but that when the battle fleet arrived in response to Vice-Admiral Beatty'a call, the Gerrrrkn fleet retired to its base leaving the North sea as firmly an ever in the control of the British navy, On the German side, the German reports received announce that the full German high seas fleet was engaged. An unofficial report received late and not confirmed by the admiralty is to the eject that eight German vessels which took part in the battle were cut off by the British ships and were compelled to seel refuge In Danish waters. According to this report the Danish authorities have given them 24 hours in which to make necessary repairs and leave the territorial water, with the alternative of being interned, and British vessels are waiting for them should they decide to leave their refuge. N E W 8 T A T E 8 8 A T I 8 F I E D . A. G. Findlay of Seattle, royal chief of the Scottish Clans, is a traveling salesman whose work takes him into every city of considerable size in the far West. This is what he says: "National prohibition la not far distant— of that I feel certain from the satisfaction which prohibition Is giving in the West. It is interesting to note that stores report a marked increase in the volume of cash business which they are doing and that the installment houses and others carrying many accounts with people of moderate means report that collections are very much better, payments made more promptly and, in a much increased proportion, without 'dunning.' "One entire set of arguments against prohibition is, it seems to me, knocked out by what is seen to be happening to the saloon. 'The poor man's club,' the saloon has often been called by some who sought to defend it and the attempt has been made to call prohibition class legislation, as depriving the poor man of a place for social intercourse with his fellows since he could not afford membership in a club, as more well-to-do men can. One finds that, under prohibition, many of the places which formerly were saloons are more nearly a poor man's club now than before. Games and a place to read his newspapers are provided for the customer, these places supporting themselves by the sale of temperance drinks, and so forth." Demand for Canadian Cattle After the War. PERSONAL LIBERTY. A man may not even do with his own body what he pleases. Suppose he tries to kill it—to commit suicide. If he fails he will go to jail. And yet if the United States government should decide to go to war with any other nation it assumes the right, if necessary, to send him to the front to be shot down, He belongs to the state as well as to himself. If the state should decide that the saloon is a menace, and that it dispenses poison, then society has a right to say that the saloon muBt go, no matter how it may affect anybody's personal liberty. We accept the restriction which the state imposes upon us in other relationships.

The Manufacturers and Dealers' association, an organization of the liquor interests with* headquarters in Chica go, is offering to furnish newspapers with antlprohibition material. In his letter to the editors Mr. Daniels, business manager of the association, says: "This Is not a liquor organization. We do not accept as a member anyone who deals in alcoholic liquors. We are tax paying business men who help make the wheels of commerce go round." It may be in order to ask, why discriminate against the liquor dealer? From the standpoint of the above-named antlprohibition commercial association he is a necessary factor in making the wheels go round. Does the liquor trade, wholesale and retail, view with approval this ostracism by manufacturers and dealers? STANDPOINT OF BUSINESS. BOOZE-A VITAL QUESTION.

The opportunities that Western Canada offers to the farmer have time and again been placed before the public through these columns. The cheap price at which the very best lands can be purchased, and the advantage that is to be had in securing one of the free homesteads of 160 acres has appealed to a great many, and they have embraced them. Many, in fact most of those who have done so are today giving testimony to the good fortune and the timely forethought that led them to go to Western Canada, and embark in an era of farming that has placed them away beyond the pinch of want and given them reason to look into the future with a hopefulness that they had not had the courage in the past to forecast. Not only have they been able to secure good lands at low prices and on easy terms but if they desired they have been able to add to this 160 acres of land free, on conditions that are easy. A resident in the Lloydminster district in Saskatchewan who had been farming in the States for some time, took up a homestead in 1910, and commenced breaking with 4 oxen. Two years ago he bought an adjoining quarter section and now has over 100 acres under cultivation. He says, "As my circumstances improved, I sold the oxen and now have six head of horses, twelve head of cattle, and havo always a bunch of hogs on hand. "On an average I have had yields of 25 bushels of wheat, 65 bushels of oats, and 40 bushels of barley to the acre, and last season from a field of 28½ acres, I threshed 1,040 bushels of wheat. I have made a success of mixed farming and would have no hesitation in advising all who contemplate making a new home to come to this j district. I sell cream to the Government Creamery here, and find at all - j times a good market for live stock and j other produce." This is but a modest statement of what a modest man can do in Western , Canada, and could be repeated of hundreds of others. j Scores of cases could be recited . where much more has been accom- [ plished, and it is believed that with ( moderate investment at the present time, the cattle industry of Western ; Canada will pay large interest The Minister of Agriculture of Saskatchewan, in a recent address, ven- I tured the prediction that the Sas- , katchewan farmer who developed his land along the lines of general stock breeding would make much more money and find a far bigger return for hifl efforts in ten yearb' time, than the man who devoted his energies purely and primarily tr. grain raising, This was the coming golden age of oppor- [unity for the stockmen arid it was up to the Saskatchewan man to get in on the ground floor and prepare himself for the coming demand. The close of the war \vc :'d undoubtedly see a great demand for live stock in Europe and it was only reasonable to suppose that this demand would have to be filled almost wholly bV\ American stockmen, both in Canada and the United States. Europe was slowly draining its rural districts not only of its beef and dairy animals but was also using the finer breeding animals and the end of the war would see a condition of affairs which would render necessary almost the repopulatlon of the domestic animal kingdom in that continent/ The opportunity of Western Canadian stockmen, therefore, lay in being prepared for this demand when it arose. In view of these facts which must be patent to every student of economic conditions as related to the stock industry, he hoped to see within the next three years the stock raising industry in Saskatchewan given an immense impetus forward, which would put it In the forefront of the producing provinces of the Dominion.—Advertisement Practical Philanthropy.

CHAPTER I. I Buy a Farm on 8ight. Some men who go luto teaching, and $t coarse all men who become great teachers, do have a genuine love for their work. Bat I am afraid 1 was one Of those unfortunates who take op teaching as a stop-gap, a means of livelihood while awaiting "wider opportu nitles." I bad been accredited with "brilliant promise" in my undergrad flate days, and the college had taken me Into the English department upou graduation. Well, that was seven years ago. 1 was still correcting daily themes. It was a warm night in early April. 1 had a tonch of spring fever, and wrote vicious, sarcastic comments on the poor undergraduate pages of uoexpresaiveness before me, as through my -open windows drifted op from the yard a snatch of song from some returning theater party. 1 closed my eyes In memory—memory of my grandfather's farm down In Essex county. The sweet call of the village church bell came back to me, the drone of the preacher, the smell of lilacs outside. the stamp of an impatient horse In the horse sheds where liniment for man and beast was advertised on tin posters! "Why don't 1 go back to It, and give tip this grind?" I thought. Then, being an Engilsb Instructor, I added learnedly, "and be a disciple of Rousseau!" It was a warm April night, and I was foolish with spring fever. I began to play with the idea. I got up and opened my tin box, to Investigate the visible paper tokens of my little fortune. There was. In all, about $30,000, the result of my legacy from my parents and my slender savings from my slender salary, for I had never bad any extravagances except books and golf balls. I bad heard of farms being bought for $1,000. That would still leave me more than $1,200 a year. Twelve hundred dollars a year would hardly be enough to ran even a $1,500 farm on, not for a year or two, because I should have to hire help. I must find something practical to do to support myself. What? What could I do, except put sarcastic comments on the daily themes of helpless undergraduates? I went to bed with a very poor opinion of English instructors. But God, as the hymn remarks, works in a mysterious way his wonders to perform. Waking with my flicker of resolution quite gone out 1 met my chief in the English department, who quite floored me by asking me if I could find the extra time— "without Interfering with my academic duties"—to be a reader for a certain publishing bouse which had Just consulted bim about filling a va cancy. 1 told him frankly that if 1 got the job I might give op my present post and buy a farm, but as he didn't think anybody could live on a mano script reader's salary, be laughed and didn't believe me, and two days later I had the job. It would be a secret to disclose my salary, but to a mao who had been an English Instructor in an American college for seven years tipoked good enough. Then came tn > Caster vacation. Professor Farus worth of the eco- •omlcs department bad Invited me on a motor trip for the holidays. (The professor married a rich widow.) "As the Cheshire cat said to Alice," he explained, "It doesn't matter which way you go, if you don't much care where you are going to; and we don't do w e r "Yea," I said, «1 want to look at farms." But he only laughed, too. "Anyhow, we won't look at a single undergrad oste," he said. In the course of our motor flight from the Eternal Undergraduate, we reached one night a certain elm-bung New England village noted for its views and its palatial summer estates, and put up st the hotel there. The pro* feasor, whose hobby Is real estate values, fell into a discussion with the suave landlord on the subject, considered locally. (Being a state congressman, he was unable to consider anything except locally!) Toe landlord, to our astonishment informed us that building sites oa the village street and lbs nearby bills sold ss nigh as fsVOOO "What does farm land cost?" 1 Inquired sadly. "As mucu as the farmer can Induce you to pay." he laughed. "But if you were a farmer, you migb,t get it for one hundred dollars an acre." "I am a farmer," Bald i. "Where is there a farm for sale?" The landlord looked at me dubiously. But he volunteered this information: "When you leave In the morning, toward Slab City, about half a mile beyond the second estate, you'll come to a crossroad. Turn up that and ask for Milt Noble at the first bouse you come to. Maybe he'll sell." It was a glorious April morning when we purred softly up the Slab City road and reached the crossroad A groggy signboard hand pointed to "Albany." We ran up the road a hundred yards of the fifty miles to Albany, crossed a little brook, and stopped the motor at what I Instantly knew for my abode. 1 cannot tell you how I knew It. One doesn't reason about such things any more than one reasons about falling in love. At least I'm sure I don't nor could I set out In cold blood to seek a residence, calculating water supply, quality of neighbors, fashlonableness of site, nearness to railroad, num ber of closets, and all the rest I saw the place, and knew It for mine—that's all. , As the motor stopped, 1 took a lone look to left and right sighed, and said to the professor: "1 hereby resign my position as Instructor in English, to take effect Immediately." The professor laughed. He dldnt yet believe I meant it The bouse was set with its side to the road, about one hundred feet into the lot A long ell ran out behind, evtbunding In the Door Contemplating Our Car. dently containing the kitchen and then the sheds and outhouses. The eld* door, on a grape-shadowed porch, wss In this ell. facing the barn across the way. The main body of the dwelling was the traditional, simple block, with a fine old doorway, composed of simple Doric pilasters supporting a band hewn broken pediment—now. alas! broken in mors than an architectural sense. It wss s typical bouse of the splendid carpenter-and-buiMer period of a century ago. This front door faced Into an aged and now sadly dilapidated orchard. The winters bad racked toe poor old orchard, and great limbs lay on the ground. What remained were bristling with suckers. The sills of the boose were still bidden under banks of leaves, held in place by boards, to keep out the wloter cold. There were no curtains in the windows, nor much sign of furniture within. Prom <thW view the old bouse looked abandoued. It bad evidently not been pslntsd for twenty years. We turned around the giant liisc tree to the side door, searching for Milton Nobis, A boot old lady peered over her spectacles at us. sod snowed MUt wss out tew tbs barn.

"Dont you want to sell?" said I. **I might" he answered. "Suppose we take a took Into the bouse?" suggested the professor. The old man moved languidly from the door. As he stepped, bis old black trouser leg pulled up over bis shoe-top. and we saw that be wore no stockings. He paused in front of the motor car. "How much did thet benzine buggy cost?" he asked. "Four thousand dollars," said the owner. The gray eyes darted a look into the professor's face; then they became enigmatic "Powerful lot o' money," be mused, moving on. "Whar's youru?" he added to me. "If 1 bad one of those, 1 couldn't have your farm." said 1. He squinted shrewdly. "Dunno's yer kin, anyway, do ye?" was his reply. He now led us Into the kitchen. We saw the face of the old lady peering at ua from the "butt'ry." A modern range was backed up against a bujje, old-fashioned brick oven, no longer used. A copper pump, with a brass knob on the curved handle, stood at one end of the sink—"Goes ter the well." said Milt The Boor was of an clent hardwood planking, now worn into polished ridges. A door led up a low step into the main house, which consisted, downstairs, of two rooms, dusty and disused, to the left and two similar rooms, used as bedrooms, to the south (all four containing fireplaces), and a ball, wbere a staircase with carved rail led to the ball above, flanked by four chambers, each with its fireplace, too. Over the kitchen was a long, unfinished room easily convert ed into a servants' quarters. Secretly pleased beyond measure at the excel lent preservation of the Interior, I kept a discreet silence, and with an air of great wisdom began my Inspection of the farm. Twenty acres of the total thirty wer? on the stde of the road with the house, and the lot was almost square—about three hundred yards to a side. The land had, 1 fancied, been neglected for many years, like the tumbling stone WJLJJS which bounded It. Behind tb* barn, on the other aide of the road the rLdauKUlar teu-acre lot was rough second growth timber by the brook. nod <-ow pasture all up the alope and over ih* plateau. Heturulus to the house, we took a sample of the water from the well for auulytils. When I asked the old lady (I made the mistake of calling her Mrs Noblet to boll the bottle and cork tlrst. I think they both decided 1 was mad. "Now," aald I, an 1 put the sample lu m.v pocket, "if thj* water gets a ileau l»111 of health, what tio you want for the place?" •'Wbat'U you give me?" aald Milt. "Look here," said I. "I'm a Yankee too nud 1 can answer one queatlou with another just as long as you can What do you expect me to give you?' The old man spat meditatively, and wipvd bia whlakenj with the back of bitt hand. "Pitt Perkins got five hundred dol lars au acre for hia place," aald he "How'd eight thousand dollars strlkf you?" 1 took the bottle of well water from my pocket, and extended it toward him "Here." I said, "there's no need for me to have this analyzed." "Seven?" said he. "Four!" said I. "Six?" said he, "Not a cent over four," said I. "All right" said he, "didn't much want ter sell, anyhow." And he pock ete<i the bottle. I climbed Into the car. The engine bep:in to throb. The professor put on his gloves. "Five," said Milt "with the hoss an two Jerseys an1 all the wood In the shed." He was standing In the road beside the modern motor car, a pathetic old figure to me, so like my grandfather In many ways, the last of an ancient order. Poverty, decay, was written on him, as on his farmstead. "It's yours," 1 cried. 1 got out of the car again, and we made arrangements to meet in the village and put the deal through. Then I asked him the question which had been pressing from the first "Why do you sell?" lie pointed toward a distant estate, with great chimneys and gables, crowning a hill. "This hain't my country no more," he said, with a kind of mournful dignity. "It's theirs. I guess five thousand dollars 'II last me 'bout as long as my breath will. Yer got a good farm here—if yer can afford ter put some money back inter the soil." He looked out over his fields and we looked mercifully Into the motor. The professor backed the car around, and we said good-by, "Well!" I cried, as we spun down over the bridge at my brook, "I've got a country estate of my own! I've got a borne! I've got freedom!" "You've got stuck," said the professor. "He'd have taken four thousand dollars." ft!

But the recent investigation made by local committees proves t h a t the amount of liquor consumed in Lansing under the dry regime is about onetenth of w h a t it w a s when we had saloons here.

It was the first bite Brewer had all day. The line jerked the hook down with such force that an alarm was sounded. Brewer heard the Jingle of the alarm and ran home. The police arrested him ten minutes later and charged him wrth turning in a false alarm.—St, Louis Times. His Mind Elsewhere. "Does it require mental concentration to write a 'best seller'?"

PLANTS AROUND THE HOUSE By LIMA R. R03E. A great deal of discriminating care should be exercised about the plants located close to the house. Those set in such a manner as to hide the foundation of the house and relieve the bareness should be plants that do not grow much higher than the wall. Some of the best plants for this sort of adornment are the herbaceous spireas, dicentra and perennial phlox. Such annuals as ten weeks stock, aster, nicotians, nasturtium and coreopsis can also be used effectively. Gladioli furnish a brilliant display in midsummer and the tuberose is a fragrant plant that also should have place near the house. Scatter bulbs for early blooming all through the lawn and close to the path. Old-fashioned plants are always a happy selection because they possess genuine merit and have been proved. Make homes instead of houses by the good taBte exercised in your planting around the home grounds and display your originality along conservative lines and make your planting arrangements artistic. THE ETERNAL BATTLE WITH BUGS IN THE GARDEN By 8. M. TAYLOR. 8pray, spray and forever spray, if you would save the fruit of your orchard, field and garden. Countless days of labor of men and women are lost, hope turns to disappointment, and ambition blighted because of the unchecked ravages of insects and disease. The vital importance of spraying is beginning to be realized by fruit and vegetable and flower growers, but all too slowly. The formulas of the most Important compounds for spraying will be of value to the Intelligent and dead-in-earnest grower. Any of the sprays mentioned can be applied with comparative safety to any plant or foliage if moderation and Judgment are used. Paris Green Formula. Paris green 1 Lb. Fresh (unslaked) lime 1 Lb. Water 200 Gals. Paris green is heavier than water and the mixture must be kept in constant motion during spraying operations to prevent settling. It Is often adulterated. Gypsum and slaked lime are two adulterants commonly used- Pure parts green dissolves without sediment in ammonia, the adulterant will not This affords a simple test for purity. Paris green if used on growing plants greatly In excess of the above formula may Injure the foliage. The addition of the lime overcomes the caustic properties and renders It safe under all conditions. Dry parts green may be used purs If applied in small quantities. Different dry powder "guns" have been invented for this purpose. Poison for Biting Insects, Arsenate of lead 2 Lbs. Water BO Gals. Arsenate of lead Is a combination of whits arsenic, sugar of lead and sal soda. It may be prepared by combining these materials In proportion, but the process Involves considerable labor and danger, aa the ingredients must be combined by hotting. Arsenate of lead U lees liable to Injure foliage than parts green. It remains longer in suspension. It adheres better to foliage. It may be need for any purpose for which parte green ta employed in liquid sprays. White Hellebore. Powdered white hellebore is •Msuy employed to destroy evraat f cabbage worms and on fruits and vegetables where more poisonous BUDstancea cannot be used with safety. White hellebore 1 Oz. Water 2 or S Gals. It may also be used dry, either alone or mixed with flour, land plaster, soot, etc. White hellebore is scarcely poisonous to the higher animals and may be used freely on fruits and vegetables at any stage of maturity. Used only to destroy sucking insects. It may be applied to the insects and cannot be used as a preventive. This is the standard remedy for Bucking insects. Dissolve one pound hard soap in two gallons of boiling water. While hot add two quarts of kerosene. Churn or shake the mixture while hot for five to ten minutes or until it assumes a creamy consistency. Add six gallons of water before using. Another plan consists in using sour milk Instead of the soap water, the object in either case being to hold the kerosene In suspension while it is applied to the insects. The most approved method of apply lng kerosene is by means of a special pump designed to mix kerosene and water. This is the most agreeable and by all means the best method of apply lng kerosene. Sprays for Fungicides. The control of fungous diseases is accomplished by the use of some form of copper salts, usually coppei sulphate or copper carbonate. The former known as bluestone, blue vitriol, etc., is generally recog nlzed as more efficient than the latter, When purchased in large quantities it is also cheaper. Copper sulphate may be used on dormant plants when dissolved in water at the rate of two pounds to 50 gallons of water, but this solution must not be used on growing plants. Copper sulphate in combination with fresh lime forms the standard and well-known fungicide. Bordeaux Mixture. Various formulas are quoted, but the following is accepted as safe and re» liable: Copper sulphate 5 Lbs. Fresh lime 5 Lbs. Water 50 Gals. In general terms, th* copper sulphate should be dissolved in one-half of the water, the lime slaked in the remainder, and the two solutions poured together. This results in a chemical action giving rise to a new substance preserving the fungicidal properties of the copper sulphate, and if properly made will not Injure foliage. Making Bordeaux Mixture. Have on hand three barrels and two pails (wood or fiber). Twenty-five gallons of water in each of two of the barrels. Dissolve five pounds of copper sulphate in one barrel by suspending in a coarse burlap as near the surface of the water as possible; in this way It will dissolve In a few minutes, while if allowed to settle to the bottom It would require several hours or even days to dissolve. Place the lime in a pail and slake by adding water slowly until a paste is formed. (The lime for bordeaux mixture should be slaked exactly as for building purposes.) Pour this Urns paste Into the second barrel and stir thoroughly. Now pour into the third (empty) barrel first a pailful of the copper sulphate solution, thee a pailful of lima water, or better, let two persons work at the job, pouring together. The resultant mixture should be of aa Intense blue color.

A tourist while "doing" California noticed a long shanty which displayed the following sign: "Teeth yanked out without a twinge." As he happened to be suffering from toothache, he entered the shanty and asked the dentist: "Do you extract teeth without giving pain?" "Waal, I reckon so, stranger." "All right; pull this one out," indicating the offending molar. The dentist whistled, and in walked his assistant with a club. "Now, pard," quoth the "dentist," "Stun him!" True Religious Spirit. The church recently erected at Orleans, in the Sacramento diocese of California, is the only sacred edifice in a radius of 40 miles, and stands on a half-acre given by an aged squaw, Indian Fannie, who, though destitute, made the present in the best possible spirit, saying: "Go on and build the church; I don't want any money." The congregation is about 700 Indians and halfbreeds. A Reason for Being Neutral. "Why should we remain neutral?" "So's we can cheer for the winner, and say tha* we were for him all the time."

Then, one night, for the sweet sake of charity, a theatrical performance took place, in which the charmer was the leading woman and more adorable than ever. Afterward the shy admirer drew near his sweetheart, made valiant by the sight of her beauty. "You are the star of the evening," he said, as they stood alone in a corner. "You are the first to tell me so," said the damsel, with a happy blush. "Then," he retorted promptly, ''may I claim my reward as an astronomer?" The woman looked puzzled. "What reward?" she asked. "Why, the right U» give my nama to the star I have Just discovered!" the young man said, speaking boldly at last—Answers, London. ^ e r y Attractive.

PINCKNEY DISPATCH IN PURPLE TAFFETA AFTERNOON C08TUME THAT WILL MEET WITH APPROVAL.

The pretty afternoon drees here shown la made of purple taffeta, and front and back widths are draped with nary georgette crepe. Bands of navy satin trim the skirt,-the same material being employed for the narrow T Pretty Afternoon Dreaa. modtah revert. Silver and turquoise embroidery adds a color touch and decorative feature to the overdrapery of georgette. The drese may be made at home, njlug materials of good quality, for $16, estimating four yards of taffeta at 91.60 per yard, the same amount of georgette, of which a very fair quality may be obtained for 91.50 a yard, and allowing |1 for- three-quarters of a yard of aatin, 91 tor the sllfc and metal thread with which the embroidering Is done, and 92 for sewing silk, lining, hooks and eyes, and general fittings. Net is the lining usually selected for a dress of this type, because it gives the support necessary and yet avoids any suggestion of stiffness, which feature Is definitely opposed to the season's preferred styles, even the tight little basque bodices frequently seen having an invariable softening touch. Sleeves of the dress Illustrated are of georgette, matching the drapery while the dainty chemisette vest is of sheer white organdie. This touch of white against the neck is uniformly becoming. As will be noted, the gown Is cut on very simple lines. The bodice is barely waist length in the back, the short-waist effect accentuated by the pointed girdle. The simulated front girdle is in one with the front sections of the bodice, and is finished with a touch of Bilver-thread embroidery and an appliqued block of the navy satin. The fancy for metal embroideries came into being more than a year ago, and It has strengthened as the months have passed. The decoration is now a favorite one on many of the high-grade tailored suits of silk. Costumers account for the fancy for embroideries as trimmings by the fact that the war has discouraged the development of novelty fabrics and trimmings, so that to offset the condition and do away with the possibility of a dearth of decoration hand embroidery was given a place at the head of the procession. If a woman is handy with her needle the fancy for hand-embroidered frocks need not appall her, but if she must depend upon someone else to apply the stitches she must expect to pay well for them. Manufacturers say that because of the demand for hand embroidery as a trimming ready-to-wear garments have gone up in price, as this class of work must necessarily be slow and skilled needlewomen command high wages. Hand embroidery and fabric combinations play a very Important part In making this season's costume a smart one. The dress illustrated has the sideflare effect with flat front and back that are commended as wholly correct by Dame Fashion.—-Washington Star. TAKING PUCE OF THE MUFF #~ Many Uses for the Empty Hands May Be Found if Women WIN Look for Them. What shall a woman do with her hands, now that she has no further use for a muff? Shall she carry a handbag, or shall she run the risk of feeling awkward and nervous through not knowing just what to do with them? Many women who are not ordinarily affected by trifles are sometimes irritated by this little problem. One young woman solves it by becoming a student She is seen for the first few weeks of mild weather carrying a book, magazine or newspaper, which is not.heavy, but finds a use for the empty hands. At first a book is used. Then she changes to a lighter book, then to a magazine, and lastly to the newspaper. In the meantime she has been learning to carry a handbag In the hand, and not slipped over the arm, as is generally done by those who have carried a muft Another woman carries a bag containing embroidery, while a third is never seen without an embroidery bag or basket.

The bright new bags, or books, serve to modify this dissatisfaction, and women who carry such things go along In a buoyant manner, apparently tree from care.

HUGHES ACCEPTS NOMINATION AND RESIGNS FROM BENCH rV' CHARLES E. HUGHES. Republican Ticket: OHARLE3 EVANS HUGHES, for president CHARLES WARREN FAIRBANKS, for vloe president. Prourettlve Ticket: THEODORE R 0 0 8 E V E L T , for president. JOHN M. PARKER, for vloe president Chicago.—Charles Evans Hughes of New York was nominated for president by the Republican national con Tention on the third ballot His vote was practically unanimous. He redelved 949½. Col. Theodore Roosevelt received 18 V^ DuPont 5, Weeks 3 E d Lodge 7. One was absent. Bere the roll call had covered half the ites Hughes had the necessary 494. New Jersey's vote touches the mark. Fairbanks of Indiana was placed in nomination for vice president by John Wanamaker of Philadelphia. The nomination of Justice Hughes •wept through the crowded Coliseum like a tornado. It began with Alabama and rolled over the country from coast to coast and from Gulf to Canadian border. It leaped the seas to the Philippines and Hawaii and Porto Rico. At almost the same moment Theodore Roosevelt was unanimously noml Bated for president by the Progressive national convention. Make Nomination Unanimous. Chairman Harding announced the nomination of Hughes, and Alex. P. Moore of Pittsburgh and Senator Lodge, who voted for Theodore Roosevelt, moved to make it unanimous. The nomination was made unanimous with a roaring chorus of "Ayes" and not a single "No." Senator Lodge made an eloquent appeal for Hughes in seconding the motion for unanimity. New Mexico nominated Fairbanks lor vie© president Governor Willis of Ohio seconded Fairbanks. Nebraska was the next state to re- Bpond and H. H. Baldrldge nominated termer Senator Burkett Charles Warren Fairbanks of Indiana was nominated on the first ballot at the vice presidential candidate of the Republican party. Hughe* It Notified. The following message of notification and congratulation from Warren O. Harding, permanent chairman of the Republican national convention, tent to Justice Hughes at Wash- >n: "With deliberation and enthusiasm, circumstances which could not been more complimentary, and Tftta unanimity never excelled in past ojnventlons, yon have been nomlnat* fjt by the Republicans of the nation m e v candidate for president of the «krited States. "Your eminent fitness for this high osfice, your sterling integrity and un- MdDled private character are under^ ojtood and appreciated by your connsjtsueu. t Voicing the sentiments of the convention over which I have presided lay the courtesy of my fellow delefate*, I congratulate yon and the country upon the outcome of this convention. WARR&rf 0. HARDING." The fact that Roosevelt had been aominsted by the rival convention. In s o wise dampened the ardor or the ejBthoalaam of the Republican delegates, the alternates and the great u t s d i that packed the floor and the jeUerfes of the Cottscum to the very fas* tact CHARLES WARREN FAIRBANK8. At soon as the presidential nomination was out of the way, conferences were begun to fix upon the running mate of the Supreme court Justice. Roosevelt Offers Lodge. The Roosevelt proposal to select his friend, Henry Cabot Lodge, as a compromise candidate was never taken seriously by the Republicans. Lodge's name was not even formally placed in nomination before the Republican convention. The Roosevelt message, however, caused consternation for a time, coming as it did like a bombshell wholly unexpected. The report of the "peace" conference committees showing that the Progressive "peace committee" had agreed to put the name of Hughes before that convention hardly caused a stir, nor did the news that came a few minutes later that the report had been tabled by the Progressives. Meanwhile Hughes was in the air, on every tongue. Delegates were Impatient to get to balloting. The feeling was everywhere that the third ballot of the convention for president would be the last—and it was. Harding Is Chairman. The Republican convention opened at the Coliseum at 11 a. m., June 7. Senator Warren G. Harding of Ohio was elected temporary chairman, and he delivered a speech setting forth conservative Republican principle*. Following this the regular committees Washington. June 10.—Justice Charles Bvana Hughes accepted the Republican nomination tor the presidency, and resigned from the Supreme ccurt of the United states. He issued the following statement.' "To the President: "I hereby resign the office of associate Justice of the Supreme court of the United States. "I am. sir, respectfully yours, "CHARLES E. HUGHES." Hughes' statement of the acceptance of the Republican nomination follows: "Hon. Warren G. Harding. Chairman Republican National Committee. Chicago. I1L "Mr. Chairman and Delegates: I have not desired the nomination. I have wished to remain on t£e bench, but In this critical period of our national history I recognize that It Is your right to summon and my paramount duty to respond. Tou speak' at a time of national exigency, transcending merely partisan consideration. "You voice the demand of the dominant, thoroughgoing Americanism, with firm, protective, upbuilding policies essential to our peace and security; and to that call in this crisis I cannot fail to answer with the pledge of all that Is In me to the service of our country. Therefore I accept the nomination. "I stand for the firm and unflinching maintenance of sJl^the rights of American citizens on land and sea. I neither Impugn motives nor underestimate difficulties. "But It Is more regrettably true that In our foreign relations we have suffered Incalculably from the weak and vacillating course which has been taken as regards Mexico—a course lamentably wrong with regard to both our rights and our duties. "We Interfered without consistency and while seeking to dictate when we were not concerned, we utterly failed to appreciate and discharge our plain duty to our citizens. "At the outset of the administration the high responsibilities of our diplomatic intercourse with foreign nations were subordinated to a conception of partisan requirements, and we presented to the world a humiliating spectacle of Ineptitude. "The latest efforts have not availed to recover the influence and prestige so unfortunately sacrificed; and brave words have been stripped of their force by indecision. "I desire to see our diplomacy restored to its best standards, and to have these advanced; to have no sacrifices of national interests to partisan expediency; to have the,first ability of the country always a t its command, here and abroad, in diplomatic intercourse; to maintain firmly our rights under our laws; insisting steadfastly upon our rights- as neutrals and fully performing our international obligations; and by the clear correctness and Justice of our position, and our manifest ability and disposition to sustain them, to dignify our place among the nations. "I stand for an Americanism which knows no ulterior purpose, for a patriotism which is single and complete. Whether native or naturalised, of whatever race or creed, we have but one country, and we do not for an instant tolerate any divisions of allegiance.

There was only moderate expression of enthusiasm at any time. With the hope of agreeing an a presidential candidate whom both parties might support, the Progressives, in convention at the Auditorium, and the Republicans appointed a Joint conference committee Thursday, and this committee met at the Chicago club. Shortly after midnight It was announced that no progress had been made toward fusion of the two parties. The Republican members of this committee were Senator Reed 8moot of Utah, W. Murray Crane, ex-senator from Massachusetts; Senator William E. Borah of Idaho, Nicholas Murray Butler of New York, president of Columbia university; A. R. Johnson of Ohio, a former congressman. The Progressive members were Gov. Hiram Johnson of California, Horace S. Wilkinson of New York, Charles J. Bonaparte of Maryland, former attorney general, John M. Parker of Loulblana, George W. Perkins of New York. The Progressive convention opened at exactly the same time the Republicans started their meeting. Temporary Chairman Raymond Robins delivered the Progressive policy speech. Routine business followed—but It wasn't routine In the same way as the Republican session was, The Progressives, with such men as William Allen White, Victor Murdock and Hiram Johnson, were loudly enthusiastic. This convention was really an explosive affair—cheers, table pounding, radical talk and all that Career of Justice Hughes, Charles Evans Hughes' fame rests principally on his conduct of the insurance investigation and hit career as governor of New York state.

In the week that has elapsed since they first threw their attacks against the Austrians, the Russians have captured approximately 108,000 officers and men and forced back the organized lines of their antagonists from the region of the Volhynian fortress triangle to Rumania. Having previously captured Lutsk, the Russians now have retaken Dubno, the second of the fortresses In the Volyhynlan triangle held by the Austrians and art pressing the retreating Austrians westward. In Galicia and Bukowina progress also has been made by the Russians. The Austrians all along the battle front are putting up a stubborn resistance, especially east of Kolkl, lying to the north of Lutsk where they have forced back Russian advanced elements across the Styr river, and in the region of Torgovitsky, on the Styr, south of Lutsk, where a sanguinary battle is in progress.

My Farmer Cornea. Three days later I closed the deal and hastened back to college. Professor Grey of the college botanical department assigned his chief assistant at the gardens to my case. He took me to Boston, and In one day spent exactly $641 of my precious savings, while I gasped, helpless In my ignorance. He bought, it 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 impedimenta. This was rather disconcerting. But the die was cast, and I came to a sudden realization that seven years of teaching the young idea how to punctuate 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 I packed and planned, and the next morning I left college forever. I slipped away quietly, before the chapel bell bad begun to ring, avoiding all tender good-bys. I had a stack of experiment-station bulletins In my grip, and during the four hours I spent on the train my eyes never left their pages. Four hours is not enough to make a man a qualified agriculturist, but it is sufficient to make him humble. I landed at Bentford station, hired a hack, and drove at once to my farm, and my first thought on alighting was this: "Good, Lord, I never realized the frightful condition of that orchard I 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 besides. More expense!" "It's a dollar up here," said the driver of the hack, in a mildly Insidious voice. I paid him brusquely and he drove away. I stood in the middle of the road, my suitcase beside me, the long afternoon shadows coming down through my dilapidated orchard, and surveyed the scene. Milt Noble had gone. So had my enthusiasm. The house was bare and desolate. It hadn't hmm painted for twenty years, at least T sfcrfded. My trunks, which I bad ahead by express, were standing isolately on the kitchen porch. Belted me I heard my horse stamping in the stable, and saw my two cows feeding in the pasture. A postcard from one Bert Temple, my nearest neighbor up the Slab City road, had Informed me that he was milking them for me—and, I gathered, for the milk. Well, if he didn't, goodness knew who would 1 I never felt so lonely, to helpso hopeless, in my life. Then an odd fancy struck me. George 1%Maredlth made his living, too, by read- Jhg manuscripts for a publisher! The picture of George Meredith trying to reclaim a New England farm as an avocation restored my spirits, though Just why perhaps it would be difficult to make anyone but a fellow English instructor understand. I suddenly tossed my suitcase .into the barn, and began a tour of Inspection over my thirty acres. Tfcere was tonic in that turn! That brook ran south close to the road which formed my eastern boundary, along the entire extant of the farmsome three hundred yards. As I followed the brook into the maples and then into the sudden hushed quiet of my little stand of pines, I thought how all this was mine—my own, to play with, to develop as a sculptor molds his clay, to walk in, to read in, to dream in. Think of owning even a half-acre of ptne woods, stillest and coolest of spots! A single great ptne, with wide iprssdlHg, branches, like a cedar of stood at the stone wall, just Inside a y coeyiuoHT a* ooueu&Omy, ****j,e ^ CO. | out of tlil»I" I gala aloud, as 1 set off for the barn, gathered up my suitcase, and climbed the road toward Bert Temple's. If I live to be a hundred, I can never repay Bert Temple, artist in cauliflowers and best of friends in my hour of need. Bert and his wife took me in, treated me as a human, If helpless, fellow being, not as a "city man" to be fleeced, and gave me the best advice and the best supper a man ever had, meantime assuring me that my cows had been tested, and both were sound. The supper came first I hadn't eaten such a supper since grandmother died. There were brown bread Joes— only rival of Rhode Island Johnny cake for the title of the lost ambrosia of Olympus. They were so hot that the butter melted over them instantly, and crisp outside, with delicious, runny lnsides. "Mrs. Temple,". said I, "I haven't eaten brown bread Joes since I was a boy. I didn't know the secret existed any more." Mrs. Temple beamed over her ample and calico-covered bosom. "Ton must hev come from Essex or Middlesex counties," she said, "if you've et brown bread Joes before." After supper Bert took me In hand. "First thing fer you to do's to git a farmer and carpenter," he said. MI kin git yer both, if yer want I should, an' not sting yer. Most noo folks thet come here gits stung. Seema like Bentford thinks thet's why they come!" "I'm clay In your hands," said L "Wall, yer don't exactly know me intimately," said Bert with a laagh, "so yer'd better git a bit o' granite into yer system. Neow, ez to a farmer —there's Mike Finn. He lives 'bout a quarter of a mile from your corner. He'll come an' his son'U help out with the heavy work. We'll walk deown an* see him neow, ef yer like." I liked, and in the soft spring evening we set off down the road. "Wal, then, ez to carpenters," Bert went on, "thar's good carpenters, an' bad carpenters, an' Hard Cider Howard. Hard Cider's fergotten more about carpenf rin' then most o' the rest ever knoo, and he ain't fergot much, «sjoasobody ought to get 'AH That Night I Packed Planned." and neither. But he ain't handsome, and he looks upon the apple juice when if s yaller. Maybe yer don't mind looks, an' I kin keep Hard Older sober while he's on yonr Job. He'll treat yer fair, an* see thet the plumbers do." We walked on, turned the corner at my brook, and followed the other road along past my pines tin we came to a small settlement of white cottages. At one of these Bert knocked. We were admitted by a pretty, blue-eyed Irish girl, who had a copy of Caesar's "Commentaries* in her hand, into a tiny parlor, where an "airtight" stove stood below a colored chromo of the Virgin and Child, and a middle-aged Irishman sat in his shirtsleeves, smoking a pipe. "Hello, Mike," said Bert, "this is Mr. John Upton, who's bought Milt Noble*! place, an' wants a farmer and gardener. 1 told him you wus the man." "gtt down, eor, sit down," said Mike, offering a chair with an expansive and hospitable gesture, Wtore, let*s talk K over." Tfce pretty daughter had gone back to bar Caesar by the nickel oil tamp, but she had one ear toward us, and 1 caught a corner of her eye, too—an extremely attractive, not to say provocative eye. "Well, now," Mike was saying, "sure I can run a farm, but what do I be gettin* fer l t r "Fifty a month," said 1, "which includes milking the cowa and tending furnace In winter." "Sure, I got more than that on me last place and no cows at all." "Ye're a liar, Mike," said Bert. T h a t ' s a flghttn' word lu the ould country," said Mike. "This ain't the old country, and yer got forty-five dollars," Bert grinned- "Besides, ye'll be close to yer work. You wuz a mile au' a half fruui the Sulloways. Thet makes up fer the mllkin'." "True, true." Mike replied, meditatively. "But what be yer runnlu' the place for, Mr. Upton? Is It a real farmer ye'd be?" "A real farmer," I answered, "Why?" "Well, I didn't know. I've heard say yer wuz a literary feller, too, Mr. Upton, and I have me doubts." "Well, I'm a sort of a literary feller," I confessed. "But it's you I want to be the real literary feller, Mike. You must write me a poem In potatoes." Mike put back his head and roared. "It's a pome yer want is It?" he cried. "Sure, ifs an oration I'll give ye. I'll grow ye the real home rule pertaters." "Well," said I, rising, "do you begin tomorrow morning, and will yonr son help for a few weeks?" "The mornin' It la," said Mike, "and Joe along." I paused by the side of the girl. "All Gaul Is divided into three parts," 1 laughed. She looked up with a pretty smile. but Mike spoke: "Sure, but they give all three parts to Nora," he said, "so what was the use o' dividln' It? She thinks she's me mlther instead o* me daughter!" "I'll put you to bed in a minute," said Nora, while Mike grinned proudly at her. "I'm going to like Mike," said I to Bert, as we walked back up the road. "I knoo yer would soon ez I seen yer," Bert replied. "The only folks thet don't like Mike is the folks thet can't see a joke. Mike has a tolerable number o* dlslikers." "Well, I've got my farmer," said 1, "and now I suppose I've got to And a housekeeper, as soon as the bouse Is ready to live in. Nora would suit me." "I reckon she would, "but she wouldn't suit Bentford." "In other words, I want an oldish woman, very plain, and preferably n widow." "With a young son old enough ter help on the farm," Bert added with i grin. "I don't suppose you know of Just such a combination?" "Reckon I dew. You leave it to my old lady." "Mr. Temple," said I, "seema to rat* I'm leaving everything to you." "Wal, neow, yer might do a beat sight worse!" said Bert 1 went up to my chamber when we got back, and sat down beside my little glass lamp and did some figuring Added to my alleged salary as a manuscript reader, along with what ! hoped I could pick up writing, I reck lessly calculated my annua! Income as a possible $3,000. Out of this I subtracted $600 for Mike's wages, $3(50 for a housekeeper, $400 for additional labor, $75 for taxes, and $500 for additions to my "plant" as 1 began to call my farm. Then It occurred to me that 1 ought, of course, to sell my farm produce for a handsome profit Bert had gone to bed, so I couldn't ask him how much I would be likely to realize. But with all due conservatism I decided that 1 could safely join the golf club So 1 did, then and there. Whereupon I feK better, and, picking out the manuscript of a novel from my bag, I went bravery at the task of earning my living. CHAPTER i n . Joy in an Old Orchard. The following morning was a balmy and exquisite first of May and Bert hustled cue off Immediately after break fast to aieet Hard Cider Howard, whom, by some rural wireless, he had already anoanuoued. A* we walked down the road. I glanced toward my loue pine, and saw m> horse aod Mike's bitched to the plow, with Joe driving and Mike boldlug the bandies. Across the green pasture, between the road and jhe bay field, already four rich brown furrows were shining up to the sun. At the house we found awaiting a strange-looking man. small, wrinkled, unkempt, with a 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 bis little, bloodshot eyes. "Yep," he said. "Stucco over It Brick underpinning be ez good ez noo. Go inside." We stepped upon the side porch, Bert banding me the key and I opening the door of my new dwelling with a secret thrill. Hard Cider at once began on the kitchen floor, ripping up a plank to examine the timbers beneath. 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 inside walls, and the mantels were of a simple but very good colonial pattern, though they had been browned by smoke and time to a dirt color. "Now 1 want these two rooms made Into one," said I. "I want one of the 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. H« climbed on a box which we dragged in, and ripped away plaster and woodwork ruthlessly, both at the top and at places on the sides, all without speaking a word. "Yep," he said finally, "ef yer don't mind a big cross-beam showln'. She's solid oak. Yer door, though, '11 have to be double, with a beam ID the middle." "Fine!" I cried. "One to go in by, one to go out Guests please keep to the right!" "Hev ter alter yer chimney," he added, "or yer'll hev two fireplaces." I emperance (.Conducted by the Na.tlona.1 Woman"* Christian Temperance Union.) T H E JUGGLER. j Ladies and Gentlemen: I will now [ show you how the saloon helps youi town financially. I With- your kind permission, I ahaL represent the saloon; Mr. Jones here will represent your town. You see this roll of bills? It contains twenty thousand dollars in cash (the exact amount of revenue paid by the saloons of your town). You see 1 now put this twenty thousand dollars down in Mr. Jones' left-hand pocket Now, I shall give anyone here one hundred dollars in gold who will prove to this audience that Mr. Jones is not exactly twenty thousand dollars richer than he was before. Ah, I see no one is foolish enough to claim this one hundred dollars. , What's that? Will I explain how 1 can afford to be so generous? With pleasure. You see, while you were watching me put twenty thousand dollars into Mr. Jones' left-hand pocket, 1 was busy taking this other roll here out of his right-hand pocket. Now this larger roll contains two handred thousand I dollars (the amount of money received I by the saloons of your town from your 1 citizens every year). And so you see | that Mr. Jones, instead of being twen* ty thousand dollars richer than he wal before, is really one hundred and eighty thousand dollars poorer. "Strange you didn't notice that," you say. Not at all. You see, I made so much fuss about the twenty thousand dollars I was putting into Mr. Jones' left-hand pocket that I kept you from seeing me take the two hundred thousand dollars from his right-hand pocke t Every pickpocket knows this old trick.—The American Issue.

Not long ago a herd took possession of the short branch line from Patigurl to Ramihahi. The driver did hia best to frighten them oft but at the last moment one of the animals made for the engine and damaged it slightly, though it was itself thrown off the line, and is believed to have broken a leg. Pumps which are being tested in a plant to supply London with water operate by the explosion of gas and air directly against a volume of water. BETTER OFF WHEN DRIVEN OUT. Just before Rockford, 111,, v^ted dry one of the saloonkeepers of the town, addressing a meeting of the Retail Liquor Dealers' association, is reported to have said: "If this town goes dry—as it probably will—you'll put up an awful howl. But cheer up! You'll be better off when you're driven out of the business. I can count on the fingers of one hand all of you who are really making more than wages. The breweries are getting the money. Youll not lose anything financially by being forced into other businesses. Most of yva wlH gain by the change. Nearly everyone of you is going down hill physically, Your saloons are a long way from being health resorts, You get about as much bad air in the course of a day as any set of men in this town. Then most of you take too much of your own medicine and too little exercise. But you'll keep on just as long as you're in the business, and you'll stay in it until you are driven out. And I think the time has come."

Since the prohibition of vodka the price of labor in Russia has gone up j In a remarkable manner, says Prof. J. i Y. Simpson in the British Weekly. "The peasant banks are full of money," j he tells us, "loans have been paid off, \ and agricultural Implements purchased on the Installment plan have been bought outright. Having su> piled themselves with gramophone! and watches and new clothes, the peasants now employ their money in buying land and even securities, o? starting little businesses. One hundred million roubles per month need to be spent on vodka; today it remain! In the economy of peasant life. On all hands, the people demand that it shall be banished forever. The last speech I heard in the duma was that of a peasant delegate insisting that the permanent prohibition of vodka be embodied: in legal enactment now."

The amendment would make it impossible for him to stay the hand of the mob until such time as an amicable agreement could be entered upon or the difficulties adjusted. Organized labor would have it that a a ^ * y ' private individual, apprehensive of injury to his prc^perty or person, might avail himself of the protection of an injunction; but if an employer, in dispute with his men, no matter hew immi It m a k e * n o d i f f e r e n c e if t h e p i c k e t - i n g d o n e b e t e n o r a t h o u s a n d f e e t If it c o m e * t o a s h o w d o w n it wilt n o t m a t t e r if t h e p i c k e t U fiv« m i l e * a w a y if it i* n e c e s s a r y t o b e a t t h e s t r i k e .

T h e law dues, however, piohibit a set of men from intimidating one who wishes t o continue his e m - ployment, a s s a u h i n g him arid perhaps taking his very life. The laws of the state of Michigan give the employer the right to hire whom he pleases, just as they give the workman the right to choose his employer and place of employment. T h e law does not countenance violence during a strike or at any other time, ami if organized labor adherents are guilty of using violence, should they have the right to demand that they be exei:'.{ t frCrn the law on the gr< urn! that it is their employer's property at which they are directing such violence : If a court admonishes a man or body of men to cease using" violence, destroying property and assaulting workers, and the injunction is disregarded, i-h mid it be necessary for that court to call in a jury of twelve men to pass on the guilt that is admitted? But, says M r . Sugar, it is not a question of guilt; the guilt is self-evident. T h e proposition is to so fix t h e law that such violence cannot be interfered with. The ranks of organized labor a r e tilled in the main with honest, conscientious, industrious, patriotic workmen. In their very hearts the vast majority of these men have a deep respect for the mMesty of the law and for the property rights of an individual, be he an employer or not. T h e deplorable thing is that they will listen to unscrupulous a g i t a t o r s ; that they permit themselves Exchange Clippings M. H.

In the ranks of organized labor in Michigan today are thousands of men who if the nation issued a call to arms to avenge the wrongs committed against American citiaens on American soil by the Mexicans, would lay down th<i" tools and take up arms in defense of their flag. Vet the Labor Neil's deliberately insults their intelligence nnci belittles their patriotism, and also insults the colored men who have enrolled for service under the stars and stripes, by publishing this statement: African troop* a r e marching into Mexico.

Pinckney, Livingston County, Michigan, Thursday, JIHK*J>2UI 1910 No. 20 COMMENCEMENT WEEK OPEND BY Juniors Reception to Senior Class Friday Bvuninfi, June. 16th Commencement week was opened here last Friday evening, by the Junior's reception to the Seniors, which was held at the home of Gene Campbell. The house waa very nicely decorated with flowers and colors. A prog r a m w a s given, also a short talk by by Supt. Doyle which was enjoyed by all. After this, refreshments, consisting of Brick ice cream marie in the class colors and cake and wafers were served. About fifty were present. Saturday, the Seniors were treated to a picnic at Portage Lake, by the Freshmen, which was very much enjoyed by all. The Baccalaureate Address was given at the M. E. Church Sunday evening by Rev. Camburn, which was very interesting as well as instructive and a packed house was in attendance. A very fine musical program was also rendered in connection with the address. A very fine Commencement program was given last evening, when the fifteen graduates received their diplomas and met for the last time as a class. Tire three pupils chosen for the Salutatory. Prophesy and Valedictory, namely Miss Florence Byer, Lester Swarthout and Leora McCluskey, did konor to their class and teachers. The rest of the program was rendered the same as printed a short time ago. The opera house was filled to overflowing and many valuable as well as useful presents were received by the graduates The decoration of the stage was very fine, about 300 yards of bunting in the class colors of blue and maize being used besides a large amount of flower3. A dance was given after taeexeTiaes by the young men of Pinckney, music from Ann Arbor being secured. About twenty couple were present. Special Motorcycle Officer Will Patrol Roads As the result of frequent complaint* from rural residents along the main traveled highways in the county, Prosecuting; Attorney Can A. Leaman has secured the consent of the board of county auditors to employ a special motorcycle officer. The duties of the new officer will be to arrest motor car speeders who are said to be making it dangerous for horse drawn vehicles and pedestrians to use the mam traveled roads of the county. Thus the enforcement of speed laws and the common rules of safety on country roads will be taken out of the hands of townsnip officials and given the backing of the county officials. Chelsea Tribune. Plant Beans RINGLING BROS. COMING THIS WAY W o r l d ' s B i £ £ e s t C i r c u s a n d S p e c f a c k ' C i n d e . r e . i l a ' A n - n o u n c e d f o r E a r l y D ^ t t i . There are many reasons why every farmer in Michigan should include Beans in his program of plantage this year and one reason that stands out far and above all others. Every bushel that is raised will bring more than $3.00 in cash. Even though a total of 10,000- 000 bushels were produced in the state during the summer the market would absorb them at that price. It will be absolutely impossible for a grower to lose under such conditions. Behind this situation there is a reason. Until two years ago the United States was importing between 1,(»00,000 and 3,000,000 bushels of beans annually from Europe. Now the process has been reversed. During 101," 1,000,000 bushels were exported. Millions upon millions of cans went to England, : France, Greece and other countries and } until the present war is over this ex- ! portation will increase. This means a demand, a real demand, and, coupled j with the known facts that the annual consumption in the United States alone , iB 10,000,000 buanele, it means that the market never before offered such wonderful advantages to the growers. The Michigan htUe pea Bean is the pride of the nation. It Is the best and it is the_ea8iest of cultivation. I t means A parade consisting of twenty-five! q u i c k results.

Watch For The Parade few choice selections a t each stop. LEGALIZING VIOLENCE The petitions now being circulated by organized labor asking that the constitution of the state be amended so as to take from the courts the power to issue injunctions in labor disputes is one of the most arbitrary and revolutionary moves ever made in a democratic country in time of peace. The suspension of the writ of habeas corpus would be fraught with no more danger to the rights of citizens that the depriving of certain classes of our people of the right to seek this remedy to prevent the destruction of their property and the ruin of their business. It is the most radical kind of class legislation because it seeks to deliver up one class of our citizens, bound and helpless, to the tender mercies of another class. We might look upon this move with more or less complacency if the evil was to affect only the class at which it is aimed, but the evil effects from such legislation will touch every citizen of the state. We cannot isolate such a vicious principle. Sooner or later the whole people, who pay all the bills in the end, will taste- the bitter fruit, and it is het\er that they should realize this before putting their hands to a petition which is bound to handicap their commercial activities, work disaster to their industries and open the. door to a whole flood of vicious legislation. If the fundamental law of the state is to bo changed so as to deprive the manufacturer of the power t o protect his form seed should be used. Then with fair cultivating care the rest is simple and the profit at the finish will be large. Last year Michigan produced about 3,o00,000 bushels of Beans. This year the acreage has beer, increased BO that 10,000,000 bushels will be produced. This means at least $30,000.0 • ;0 if not more. No single crop could show greater results and farmers realize it. The progressive man in the country knows that, even though he has no munition factory, 4ie may profit by the war. All that hp has to do is to put in a crop of Beans.

Better than I'd dreamed!" "Salt yerself." said Hard. My front doorway had oDce been a thing of beauty, with two little panel windows at the sides, and above all, on the outside, a heavy, hand-carved broken pediment, like the top of a Governor Wlnthrop highboy. Hard looked at It with admiration gleaming in his eyes. "I'd ruther restore this than all the rest o* the Job," he said, and his ugly, rum-soaked little face positively shone with enthusiasm. "Go ahead," said I; "only I want the new steps of brick, widely spaced, with a lot of cement showing between.

Or don't yer?" he said brusquely. "Of course, of course!" I amended hastily. "Go ahead!" Hard climbed Into a broken-down wagon, and disappeared. "Don't you worry," said Bert "I'll see he treats yer right." "It isn't that," I said sadly. "It's that I've Just remembered I forgot to include any painters' bills in my own estimate."

As I created the ridge the field lay before me, the great lone pine standing sentinel at the farther side, and half of It was frail, young green, and half rich, shinlug brown. "She plows tough, sor," said Mike, as the panting horses paused for breath, "but she'll harrer down good. Be the seed pertaters come yit?" "Bert has gone for them," said L. "Let me hold the plow once." "It ain't so &zy as It looks," said Mike. "I'll do It If 1 haven't a rib left" said I grimly. • And I did It My first full furrow looked like the track of a snake under the Influence of liquor, but 1 reversed the plow and came back fairly straight I was beginning to get the hang of i t My next furrow was respectable, but not deep. On this return trip the sweat was starting from my forehead, and the smell of the horses and of the warm, fresh-turned earth was strong in my nostrils. I didn't look at my pine. I was proud at what I had done, and my muscles gloried In the toll. Again 1 swung the plow around, and drove it across the field, feeling the reluctant grass roots fighting every muscle of my arms. "There," said I, triumphantly, "you plow all the rest as deep as thatl" "Begobs, ye'z all right!" cried Mike. I went back again down the slope with all the joy of a small boy and descended upon the orchard. I had a couple of bulletins on pruning In my pocket, with pictures of old trees remorselessly headed down, I took a fresh look at the pictures, reread some of the text where I bad marked It, and tackled the first tree, carefully repeating to myself: "Remove only a third the first year, remove only a third the first year." This, 1 decided, quite naturally did not refer to dead wood. By the time I bad the dead wood cut out of that first old tree, and all the water sprouts removed (as I recalled my grandfather used to call them), which didn't seem necessary for new bearing wood, the poor thing began to look naked. 0¾ one side an old water spout or sucker had achieved the dignity of a limb and shot far Into the air. I was up In the tree carefully heading this back and out when Bert came driving by with bis wagon heaped to overflowing. "Hi!" he called, "yer tryln' to kill them trees entire!" I got down and came out to the road. "You're a fine man and a true friend. Mr. Temple." said I. "but I'm going to be the doctor for this orchard. A chap's got to have some say for himself, you know." "Well, they ain't much good, anyhow, them trees," said Bert cheer fully. We now fell to unloading the wagon. We opened up the woodsheds and storehouse behind the kitchen, stowed, In the barrels of seed potatoes, the fertilizers, the various other seeds, the farm Implements, sprayers, and so on. The hotbed frames and sashes were put away for future use, as It was too late to need them now. The horse hoe Bert had not been able to bring on this trip. Next we got my books and furniture Into the house or shed, and, tired, hot and dirty, we drove on up the road for dinner. As we passed the mpper field, I saw that the plowing was nearly done. The brown furrow* had already lost their gloss, as my ; haads had already lost their whiteness. » "Well, I'm a farmer now!" said I, surveying my sotl-caked boots and grimy clothes. "Ter on the way. anyhow." said Bert "But yer^ll have ter cultivate, tbet field hard, seeln's bow It oughter hev been plowed last falL" That afternoon I went back to my orchard, got out my shiny and sharp new doubled-edged pruning saw. and sawed til] both arms ached. As I worked, I thought bow this orchard must be trimmed and cleaned op first but how the fine planting weather was upon us, too, and I ought to be getting my garden seeds in, if I was to have any flowers. I thought, also, of all my manuscripts to be read. A nervous fit seised me, and I worked frantically. That night I managed to keep awake till eleven, aad got soma work dona. ! also rose at a compromise boor of six In the morning, aad worked another hove, almost catching op with what shoald bare been my dally stint. Bat I realised that hereafter 1 could not work on the farm all day. I mast grre ap my mornings to my msneacrlpt t, **o* rat gotag to jtm rebel how H#H arwrt off Aa aoou as the orchard was flu Is bed: ! stood amid the litter 1 had made ou the ground, and reflected. I had completed the preliminary trimming of one row aud part of a second. There were still over two rowB and a half to do. And the worst trees were in those rows, at t h a t After they were trimmed, there was all the litter to clear o u t and the stubs to be painted, and cement work to be done. "Good gracious!" thought 1, "if L do all t h a t when will I plant when will I make my lawn?" Have you ever watched a small boy picking berries? Hr never picks a bush clean, but rushes after this or that big cluster of fruit which strikes the eye. covering half an acre of ground while you. perhaps, are stripping a single clump of bushes. And be is usually amazed when your pall fills quicker than hits. Alas! I fear I was much like that small boy dur> lng my first season on the farm, or at any rate during the host month or two. There was little "efficiency" In my methods—but oh, much delight! As I had planned to put my garden coldframes along the south wall of the kitchen, I decided to make my tem porary Beedbeds there. Mike assented to the plan as a good one, and I had him dump me a load of manure, while 1 brought earth from the ueareat point in the garden, spaded up the soil, mixed In the garden earth and dressing, and then worked and reworked it with a rake, and anally with my hands. Ah, the Joy of working earth with your naked hands, making it ready for planting! The ladles I had seen In their gardens always wore gloves. Even my mother, I recalled, in her little garden, had always worn gloves. Surely, thought 1, they miss something —the cool, moist feel of the loam, the very sensations of the seeds them selves. At four o'clock I had my bed ready, and 1 got my seed packets, sorted them In a tin tobacco box, and began to sow the seeds. The directions which I read with scrupulous care always said, "Press the earth down firmly with a board." 1 was working with a flat mason's trowel, so I got up and found a board. It wasn't half so easy to work with, but I was taking no chances! ' Mike and Joe were unhitching the horse from the barrow as I finished. The great brown slope of the vegetable garden, lying away from the house toward the ring of southern hills, was ready for planting. There was my farm, thence would come my prof- Its—If profits there should be. But Just at that moment the little strip of soaked seedbed behind me was more important It stood for the color box with which 1 was going to paint for the fragrant pigments out of which I should create about my dwelling a dream of gardens. "After all," I thought, "a country place is but half realized without Its garden, even though It be primarily a farm, and the richness of country living is but half fulfilled unless we become painters with shrub and tree and Sower. I cannot draw, nor sing, nor play. Perhaps I cannot even write. But surely I can express myself here, about me, in color and landscape charm, and not be any the worse farmer for t h a t I have my work: I shall write; I shall be a farmer: I shall be a gardener—an artist In flowers; 1 shall make my bouse lovely within; I shall live a rich, full life. Surely I am a happy, a fortunate man!" I put the watering pot back in the bhed, crossed the road to the old wooden pump by the barn on a sud den impulse, nnd pumped water on my hands and bead, for 1 was hot. Mike stood In the barn door and laughed. "What are yez doin' that forT OP asked. 1 stood up and shook the wjrfer from my face and hair. "Just to be a kid. I guess," I laughed. There are some things Mike couldn't understand. Perhaps 1 did not clearly understand myself, lu some dim way un old pump before a baru aud the bbock of water from Its spout on my head was fraught with happy memories and with dreams. The sight of the pump at that moment had waked the echo of their mood. But as I plodded up tho road in the May twilight to supper, one of those memories came back with haunting clearness—a summer day. a long /%nd Pumped Water on My Hands And Head. tramp, the tender wistfulness of young love shy at its own too sudden passion, the plunge of cool water from a pump, and then at twilight half-spoken words, and words unspoken, sweeter still I The amethyst glow went off the hills that ring our valley, and a far blue peak faded Into the gathering dusk. A light shivered off my spirit, too. I felt suddenly cold, and the cheery face of Mrs. Temple was the face of a stranger. I felt unutterably lonely and depressed. My farm was dust and ashes. That evening I savagely turned down a manuscript by a rather wellknown author, and went to bed without confessing what was the matter with me. The matter was, I had pumped up a ghost At least he can plow—a little. And trim trees—a little. But wait until he breaks loose In an entirely different direction and then figure out Juat how long his money Is going to last.

GOLD IN EASTERN STATES With 8llver and Other Metals Year's Production Is Around $30,000,-000. Not all of the gold of this country comes from Alaska and the Rocky Mountain states. A good-sized lump of it, more than 10,000 ounces, worth 1224,250, is dug out of the mountains here In the East, remarks the New York Sun. Gold hunters dreamed for years of hidden wealth of yellow metal in the southern part of the Appalachian range. Some of them stopped dreaming and went to work, missing an Eldorado but gaining enough profit to pay well for their daily labor. As a result 59 gold and placer mines and 24 deep gold mines have been developed. The most productive of these are In North Carolina, Georgia and Alabama. The last-named state has not done so well as in some previous years, but both the others have exceeded the production of 1914. The largest placer mine is in Rutherford county, North Carolina, and the most productive deep mine in Montgomery county, in the same state. But the whole story of metal mining in the East is not told in the quest for gold. Besides this precious mineral, sliver, copper, lead and tine have been produced In quantities sufficient to make a total last year of almost thirty million dollars. This la nearly three times the value of the preceding year's production, the increase In gold alone being more than fifty thousand dollars. - • — » Changing Mapa.

So far, we hare left the designing of them almost entirely to the French, whether through inability or through indifference, the reporter cannot telL There are a few eminent examples of American designing that are worthy of the beat French work, but these coats have not been available for the many; they have been priced for the exclnslres. Solid colors are used In the majority of topcoats, but there 1B no doubt of the strong grip that checks have. A thin, soft velour that crumples up in the hand like satin Is the material to be chosen, and the checks in it are in various colors. Women who must be eccentric at all costs are wearing voluminous capecoats of this velour, checked off in exaggerated red, white and blue.

The smartness that is only skirt deep has no attraction at all for the woman whose knowledge of, and fondness for, dress is a deep-rooted, and not merely an acquired taste. Under the 'hobble tyranny, it is true, opportunities fQr much variety were, in a double sense, limited, and the narrow proportions of the tube skirt excluded anything in the nature of "fussy" underwear. Hut the rout of the petticoat and the suppression of the frill notwithstanding, no woman has regarded i the question of lingerie as a secondary j consideration, and hardly had the wide skirt come Into being than the petti- \ coat resumed its rustling sway once I more. Further, it openly declares its presence, ignoring the ancient, If unwritten, law that a petticoat, though !

The suggested design is intended to set forth the British rule of Vincennes by an old English rod "V" in the blue center and the French control by a white fleur-de-lis, which was the national emblem of France during the time this territory was under the French government. Radiating from the center there are 18 white stripes, indicating thai Indiana was the eighteenth state admitted to the Union. There also are 48 small white stripes, indicating the number of states now in the Union. A Protest.

PRESIDENT WOODROW WILSON DEMOCRATS CHOOSE WILSON AND MARSHALL AS THEIR LEADERS Ticket Named a Few Minutes Before Midnight on Thursday, Avoiding the Friday "Hoodoo"—Delegates Evince Intense Enthusiasm as the Result Is Announced—President at Once Notified.. S t Louis,—y\w'>- v Wilson and Thomas Riley >! r iiil were nominated Just before midnight June 15. Both nominations were made by acclamation- President Wilson's nomination came at 11:54 and thai >>f Vice-President Marshall at 11:58. Fred B. Lynch <>f Minnesota notified the White Bouse by telephone at the Instant of the Domination. A telephone wire that extended into the speaker's stand was connected direct with the White House with a megaphone attached to the receiver. In a lightning sprint Mr. Marshall made a record. Senator Kern was due for a nominating speech, Sensing the approaching midnight he threw his eulogy on the floor and simply said: "I renomate Thomas Riley Marshall." Somebody seconded. Somebody moved to make It by acclamation. And It was done, the whole job of nominating a vice presidential candidate taking up just 180 seconds. Friday Superstition Averted. Thns the ancient superstition against Friday nominations was averted, although President Wilson had made it known that he regards Friday as his "lucky day." Dramatic scenes attended the naming of the ticket William Jennings Bryan in an Impassioned panygertc placed his O. K. upon the president and his administration. The Nebraskan. who resigned from the cabinet was not a delegate to the convention, bat be was called to the platform by unanimous consent He landed Wilson to the skies for keeping the nation out of war. landed the Wilton Mexican policy and extolled the economic legislation from tariff to eurrency a c t Bryan at times spoke under the •train of emotion. It was the first convention in 20 years In which he has not been an active figure, but the oration and the outbursts that punctuated his remarks Indicated that he is still • powerful force behrnd the scenes of the party he once dominated.

Kern of Indiana then was i^cognised. He moved that the nomination of Vice President Marshall be made by acclamation. No nominating speech was made. Vice President Marshall was declared nominated four minutes after the nomination of President Wilson. Numerous seconding speeches which had been prepared were not made. Lewis1 Speech His Shortest Senator James Hamilton Lewis of Illinois was Invited to the platform to make an addess at 12:12 a. m. MI do not like to Impose upon your time," said Senator Lewis. "I beg you will excuse me and I express my sincere thanks." It was the shortest speech of his career. Senator Hughes reported to the convention that the resolution committee had failed. to complete its work on the platform. The convention then adjourned at 12:32 a. m. until eleven o'clock Friday morning. Forty-six minutes of sheer enthusiasm and emotion followed the naming of President Wilson. The minute Mr. Westcott had yielded to the adjurations of his audience and had spoken the name "Woodrow V'Uson," the galleries and the delegates were on their feet An immense oil painting of the president was dropped from the gallery hack of the speakers' stand. It excited the gathering almost to the point of frenzy. Georgia bore down the aisle a banner—"Wilson: Dixie's gift to the nation." The band blared and thumped out "America" and "Dixie" while the great pit, R crater of eruptive humanity, let out Its collective lungs and throats to capacity. Bryan Lauds Wilson. Bryan in bis laudation of Wilson and his policies dwelt on the possibilities of America as negotiator of peace in Europe. "1 stand with the Democrats of the nation to give Woodrow Wilson a chance to be that man." shouted Bryan, In conclusion, and the hall echoed with cheering. Details of the Night Session.

Senator James learned of the Nebraskan's plight and rescued hluu. Then the Nebraakan got his uuual uproarious reception. Chairman James rapped the convention to order. Rev. W. J. Hardesty, chaplain of the Missouri senate, offered prayer. Senator Thompson then moved a suspension of the rules to permit Mr. Bryan to speak. When the motion was put there were some "Noes," but the chairman ruled two-thirds had voted in favor. Senator James introduced Mr. Bryan as "one of the leading citizens of the world and America's greatest Democrat." In spite of the distracting Influence of the mob at the doors and the luuglis that rose occasionally when a bedraggled leader finally forced his way into the convention hall Mr. Bryan held his audience. Applause was frequent and thunderous. He spoke for forty-five rnfmite*, finishing at 10:07. Glynn Is the Keynoter. In a hall gay with flags and bunting and with pictures of party leaders, past and present, looking down upon them from medallions around the balcony, the delegates to the Democratic national -convention assembled on scheduled time Wednesday. The proceedings were formally started when William F. McOombs, chairman of the national committee, ascended the platform and rapped for order. He incited the first burst of enthusiasm of the convention when, in a short address Introducing the temporary chairman, he predicted victory for the party in the fall. The keynote speech was delivered by former Gov. Martin H. Glynn of New York, the temporary chairman. He was frequently Interrupted by applause when some point in his speech stirred the enthusiasm of the delegates, nis eulogy of President Wilson started the biggest demonstration of the day. Following Governor Glynn's speech, committees on credentials, permanent organization, rules, and resolutions were announced, and that day's work was done. James Permanent Chairman. The delegates were a little slow In assembling for Thursday's session, and It was almost noon when Temporary Chairman Glynn called the convention to order. Permanent Chairman Ollie James was escorted to the chair and introduced. He immediately launched into his address. He lauded the president and defended his policies, particularly in regard to the controversy with Germany over the submarine warfare and our relations with Mexico. An enthusiastic demonstration greeted his praise of President Wilson, which lasted more than twenty minutes. At the close of Chairman James' speech the convention took a recess until nine o'clock in the evening. Before the nominating speeches began at the evening session the Democrats indulged In a love feast In which the advent of harmony In their ranks was celebrated. Wilson Praised by Bryan. Mr. Bryan was cheered enthusiastically as he entered the press sec- ENTIRE MILITIA ORDERED OUT FIRST CHIEF OF MEXICO SENT AN U L T I M A T U M TO PRESIDENT WILSON. MARKET QUOTATIONS GIVENSEVEN DAYS TO VACATE Telephone and Telegraph Wirca On the Mexican Side of Border Cut. El Paso, Tex.—Confidential advices were received at El Paso that First Chief Carranza sent an ultimatum to President Wilson advising him that if American troops were not removed from Mexico within seven days a state of war would be considered as existing between United States and Mexico and that the troops of the de facto government at the end of seven days would treat all armed Americans in Mexico as invaders. Nogales, Ariz. -All telephone and telegraph wires leading from the American to the Mexican side of the border have been cut in Sonora. Americans are being brought to the border in automobiles from Nacozari, where an anti-American demonstration occurred. Carranza authorities previously had refused a train for the refugees. Washington—President Wilson Issued a call to National Guard organizations of every state in the union for service on the Mexican border. Although the purpose of the action, as set forth in ihe formal call is for » the protection of the American frontier from invasion, the opinion prevailing throughout Washington is that it marks the first step of Intervention in Mexico. For more than three years President Wilson has exhausted every other expedient in an effort to avoid such a step. Washington is the scene of intense excitement. The action is understood to have been precipitated by a dispatch from General Funston predicting trouble all along the Rio Grande in an effort on the part of the Mexicans to force the Americans to withdraw from Mexican soil. A number of lengthy reports were received at the department, but Secretary Baker refused to make their contents public. Although every state In the union and the District of Columbia Is affected by the call, not all of the organization of each state is called out None of the coast artillery units of the National Guard Is affected.

Decidedly Unwise for Owner to Undertake to (lain Necessary Knowledge by txperimonting With Hla Own Machine. 0>repajnad by the United St&tea D«p*rtmeat si Aarkuiture.) The authors of Farmers' Bulletin *An ttconomie Study of the Farm >r in the Corn Belt,1' point out In reports from nearly 200 ownof tractors In Illinois difficulty in Ion was mentioned as the prlndlsadvantage of the tractor. In sussing this fact, especially In its ig on the reliability of the traor, the writers say: *!» view of the fact that difficulty t n operation Is mentioned by tractor Vwhtrt as the principal disadvantage Xft the tractor. It seems pertinent to that while any man of ordinary itj can operate and care for a gas . )t very satisfactorily after a little Jltudy and experience, it is decidedly unwise for him to undertake to gain the necessary experience by experltgfontlng with his own machine. In most cases he can obtain the experience more cheaply elsewhere. Experience In running stationary engines or automobiles, while of some value, IS not enough; the mere starting of the motor, changing of gears, and ^topping are simple matters, and any farmer can quickly learn to do these, but the Important thing is the ability to detect troubla the minute is begins to develop, and to be able to remedy it promptly instead of allowing It to run along until an expensive delay results. MA great many owners report that U is oxtremely difficult to get hired help capable of operating a tractor satisfactorily. Where a tractor Is to be operated by hired help It is very important for the owner to understand the proper care of the outfit In order to see that it Is not abused. "The fact that a tractor does demand a certain amount of knowledge on the part of the operator can scarcely be considered a disadvantage, Inasmuch as the necessary training can be obtained easily and at a very nominal expense. It is to be regretted that so many men will Ignore tfie opportunities for equipping themselves for the nroper operation of a tractor before Attempting to run one. "That it pays to spend a few days in gaining experience under a competent instructor is attested by a great many tractor users. That It is unwise to attempt to run a tractor with- Sut such preparation has also been emoastrated many times. One farm* er writes: " 'I had no experience with the tractor when I started and would have made five hundred dollars during the season, if I had had the same experience when I started In the spring as I had in the fall when I quit.' "Many others could truthfully make similar statements. "With the increasing use of tractors, as well as of automobiles and stationary engines, farmers are rapidly becoming familiar with the care and operation of gas engines. At the same time tractors are being Improved and simplified, so that difficulties in operation are growing less each year. One .generation of well-trained and competent operators will disseminate information so that future generations will' acquire knowledge on the subject as unconsciously, yet as thoroughly, as the average son acquires his knowledge of horses. T h e mistake should not be made of aartiTntng that any boy can operate a tractor in an efficient manner; it is a Job which only a proficient operator can handle properly. T h e reliability of a tractor depends very largely upon the ability of the operator. Of about 200 tractor owners In Illinois, 57 per cent report that their outfits were not out of commission a single day when needed during the past season. Of the remaining 43 per cent, the average number of days their tractors were out of commission when needed was seven. This average, how ever, does not Include the experience of seven men who stated their machines were out of commission nearly all the time and one who said half the time. "The reports of tractor owners Indicate that with a careful and proficient operator a gas tractor is a very dependable source of power j occasional slight delays probably will be encountered, but serious ones will be exceptional. With a careless or incompetent operator, serious delays are apt to be frequent. "About 90 per cent of tractors in Illinois are operated by the owner or some member of his family. The reports of these men show that an average of about three-fourths of an hour Is lost per day on account of trouble with the tractor itself. SfSIDEAS 5?" CONFECTIONS TO FOLLOW SUBSTANTIAL MEAL.

Below are given some of the rea sons why Russia will never repeal ita prohibitory laws, based on statements made by Ernest Gordon, who has recently visited the country: In the insanity hospital in connection with the northern Russian army there has been only one case of alcoholic insanity In a year. Such hospitals during the Russo-Japanese war were filled with alcoholic insane. Ih one town money grew so plentiful that the villagers clubbed togeher and bought a movie. Charging a small admission fee they grew so embarrassed with the riches that they purchased a brand new fire engine, "the village pride." The Plrogoff society, the leading medical association of Russia, has heartily Indorsed prohibition, declaring that "a whole mass of facts allow us to believe that prohibition has decreased sickness (especially venereal and mental), lessened fires, suicides, crime, accidents and increased material and Industrial prosperity." There Is a general feeling throughout Russia that it Is "owing to the temperance movement," that the bad effects of the war are not felt. One peasant writes of the results of prohibition as "wonderfully good. Joy everywhere! Quite habitual drunkards are well dressed now and have repaired their houses."

Referring to the popular belief that the metropolitan centers are citadels of corruption upon which no Impression can be made, the Union Signal says that this "big city bugaboo" is now losing its terrors. It points to New York's board of health, to Chicago's Sunday closing, to Philadelphia's stand against the use of alcoholic drinks by its city employees, and remarks that the public will look expectantly to Boston, St. Louis and Baltimore for some spectacular movement which will excel the reforms of the other three. "Meanwhile," it says, "In the great cities of the Pacific coast, Seattle and Portland, and in the municipalities of the middle West, Denver and Des Moines, prohibition is not only demonstrating Its success as a panacea for civic Ills, but has reached a stage of popularity where the men who wrote and orated against it a few months ago, are now eloquently Insisting that from time immemorial they have been its ardent and self-sacrificing advocates." e e e The milch goat has bar place, but the cow wm always oontmuo to bo the mala source of the world's milk e e e mtUity EXPECT BETTER TIMES. 'There have been many dire predictions regarding the disaster that is to follow the departure of the saloon in wet territory in this state, but generally speaking no delusions are held along this line by the more prominent business men of Idaho," says the Boise News. "While they look for a temporary depression prior to the readjustment, they expect afterwards impetus in business conditions and even better times than before the saloon became extinct. The fact that much of Idaho has been dry for years and business conditions in the dfy territory have even been better in some Instances than in the wet territory, leads many business men to believe that the saloon is not so paramount a factor and that with a readjustment the lost revenue from It will not be missed.* Steamed Custard le One of the Best —Tangerine Souffle May Be New— Excellent Recipe for Lemon Pudding. Steamed Custard.—Put three-quarters of a pint of milk into a atewpan with two ounceu of loaf sugar and a small piece or pinch of cinnamon. Beat the yolks of two eggs thoroughly and whisk the whites to a stiff froth, finally adding them to the yolks. As soon as the milk reaches the boiling point pour it by degrees onto the eggs, btlrring it gently all the time and ltave the custard to cool. Butter a plain mold and strain the custard into it. Cover it uocuxely by tying a piece of buttered paper on the top and Bteam very gently for 35 minutes. Stand aside to get cold. Serve the custard turned out of the mold and surrounded by stewed fruit. Tangerine Souffle.—Separate the white from the yolks of six perfectly fresh eggs Put the yolks into a basin with four tablespoonfuls of powdered sugar, the grated rind of two tangerine oranges and a half portion of grated lemon rind. Beat the ingredients with a wooden spoon for ten minutes. Stir in one tablespoonful of pastry flour, and when this Is thoroughly blended with the egg mixture add one teaspoonful of orange flavoring. Add a pinch of salt to the whites of the eggs and whisk them to a very stiff froth. Mix them lightly and thoroughly with the prepared yolks and pour the mixture at once into a buttered scuffle mold. Smooth the top over with a knife into the shape of a dome and bake the souffle at once in a quick oven for from ten to twelve minutes. Just before serving sprinkle some sifted powdered sugar over the top. Lemon Pudding.—Put two ounces of butter into a saucepan and when It is melted stir in by degrees two tablespoonfuls of flour and one and a half tablespoonfuls of corn flour. As soon as the ingredients form a perfectly smooth paste, add gradually, stirring quickly all the time, one pint of milk and continue to stir until the mixture has boiled and thickened. Remove the pan from the stove and add three tablespoonfuls of sugar, the grated rind of a large lemon and one tablespoonful of brandy or vanilla. Beat in the yolks of two eggB which have been thoroughly whisked with a fork. Add a pinch of salt to the whites of the eggs and beat them to a stiff froth. Allow the pudding to cool and stir in the Btrained juice of a lemon, a little at a time, and the whites of the eggs. Line a pudding dish with puff paste, pour In the liquid mixture and bake at once in s fairly quick oven until the top is lightly or evenly browned. The heat must not be fierce nor must the pudding be allowed to remain in the oven more than from 20 to 30 minutes, or It will curdle and be spoiled.

How much is a saloon license worth? This cjutttstkm has agKUa-ted a good many city council* in Michi &un aa they faced the annual granting of licenses. It brings two answers. The license is worth a given Jee to the city which grants it, but it also iss worth many limes that ft.-o In profit** to the liquor dealers. "A saloon license in Jackson lb worth at least $1U,000 to the man who holds it" declared an official oi that city to a representative of The Xew Republic. "We used to have over ninety saloons in Ja-ckson and now with thirty.two, the profits 01 each retailer uie very large." Pinconojng, a little town near Bay City, na« ended a long hard fight over the issue by adding |600 as a village license to that required by the state, making the total $1,000. In Standlsh the one thousand figure aUo prevails. Good evidence that the liquor dealer has not yet seen the light, is furnished by much talk and little action on the subject of reducing the number of saloons in various Michigan cities. Bay City succeeded MI counting out six licenses this year but still has 108 bars in a city of 45 - 000 population. Saginaw as well at Bay City furnished much talk of re. ducing the number, but Saginaw % granted its old number of 101 licenses. Manistee managed to count out one saloon, leaving twenty-eight-—which must have been quite an effort foi Manistee since it decided to have nothing to do with local option and is advertising its saloons as a municipal attraction to motor touriatn. In Detroi' absolute secrecy \va± maintained by the liquor committee of the common council. It was expected that aomething like a bomb shell would drop and scores of K censeu would be refused which here tofore have been granted. About 50 fewer licenses were granted leaving the total 1313. Most of these local fights of saloon licenses are in fact conflicts among brewers rather than retailers. The city council has a hard tune regulating a retail saloon when the influ encffi back of the retailer are brewing companies competing for the sale of their product. While the people are not interested in who makes the stuft, 'hey do have a practical interest in law enforcement and the retailer is the man to whom they must look. With "blind pigs" flourishing in 11 censed cities and with saloon-keepers constantly violating many laws and with city councils afraid to refuse li censes when they ought to, the COLCMtions in many Michigan cities" "are all tending to increase and solidify d y sentiment.

These development were the calling to a conference at the White House by President Wilson members of the foreign relations committees of both houses, the announcement that the Carranza government had assumed fight> the sending to Carranza of a note declaring that Mexico had committed a "deliberately hostile act" against the United States and demanding the Immediate release of the troopers taken at Carrizal and the additional demand that Carranza send this government an early statement as to the course of action he has determined upon. After the White House conference it was announced that Mr. Wilson had read the note to Carranza to the senators and representatives and informed them that he would address a joint session of congress on the subject when a reply had been received. Those at the White House conference with the president were Chairman Stone, of the senate foreign relations committee; Senator Lodge, ranking Republican member, and Chairman Flood, of the house committee on foreign affairs. Representative Cooper, ranking minority member of the house committee, waa out of the city. None of the conferees would discuss the contents of the American note. When Senator Stone was approached by the newspaper correspondents he said: "The situation is exceedingly acute." The report was current throughout Washington that the president contemplates going before congress to obtain authority to declare war, but White House officials Indicated that there was no immediate prospect of such action. Another important development in the Mexican situation, which has an important bearing on the othersp was the issuing of orders by Secretary of War Baker to the army heads throughout the country to rush at least parts of the state guards to the border as soon as possible. Bast Lansing—That a group of farmere can organize to sell their products without violating the Bherman- Antl-trust Law, was asserted by Prof. Cance of the Massachusetts Agricultural College in his lecture*} on agricultural co-operation at the M. A. C. "This Is made possible," said Professor Cance, "by passing of the Clayton bill which was drawn up especially for this purpose. The law provides that if the co-operative organization does not issue stock then it cannot be said to exist in restraint of trade." Prof. Cance's lectures are part of a series to be given during the entire summer aehool on agricultural business. In ten lectures Prof. Cance will caver the subject of co-operative organizations. In his early lectures he pointed out that farming is a small industry > taking an individual farm as a unit, and therefore a very efficient produotive unit but, because of its smallness, it is a very inefficient bargaining unit. Hence farmers must pool their bargaining power or, in other words, co-operate. "In a survey of the farming of the entire world," says Prof. Cance, "you will find very few organizations of farmers for producing, but very many for bargaining purposes." The co-operation expert took a rap at the capitalistic way of looking at dividends by saying that the use of money should be paid for at market rates> that dividends or profits above the market rate meant that somebody was being cheated out of his juat earnings. "Specialization and co-operation are the two watchwordB of scientific agriculture," declared Prof. Cance. "Some of the essentials in successful farmers' co-operative organizations aro (1) the membership must be limited to those interested in the business; (2) the organization must start with but one purpose—a larger field may be taken up later; (3) must organize where there is sufficient business and in a limited area; (4) organize where there is a geographic specialization of products; (5) organization must do a cash business or an intelligent credit business." In explanation of this last point Prof. Cance declared that a month's time to pay is not a cash way of doing business. "You charge a man for the use of your money for a month and he'll begin to prick up his ears and listen about cash. This same thing will apply in the local grocery and meat business today. Those who carry accounts should be expected to pay interest." MARKET QUOTATIONS Live Stock.

During the past year road building sentiment in Michigan has grown rapidly. The Legislature of 1915 passed some of the most progressive highway laws ever enacted In Michigan. These were followed by the largest eaah appropriations ever made for state road purposes,—the appropriations for two years, including the State's portion of the automobile taxes, aggregating three millions of dollars. Already under the Assessment District Road Act petitions have been filed with the various County Road Commissioners and the State Highway Commissioner, for more than one thousand miles of road which will cost more than five millions of dollars to build. "In the aggregate the road taxes assessed last Fan by the State, Counties and Townships, amounted to $9.- 164,609. Many personal donations were made which would make a grand total expended on the highways of the 8tate last year, approximately $10,- 000,600. "The mileage of State reward roads completed waa the greatest on record. If connected they would make more than throe oontinuoua Unas across the State from the Ohio line to the Straits of Mackinaw.

One of the advantages of being a bachelor when you are building or restoring a house is that yon can spend most of your time In the garden- 1 am by nature a trusting soul, anyway (which no woman and possibly no wise man ever is where carpenters, builders and plumbers are concerned), and I trusted Hard Cider implicitly. He told me the plumbers were "doin* all right," and I believed him. That he himself was doing all right my own eyes told me, for he had by now reached the south rooms, removed the dividing partition, revealing the old, hand-hewn oak beam at the top, and was cutting a double door out in the center on either side of the great oak upright toward my future sundial lawn. I stood in this new door, looking back at my twin fireplaces, with their plainpaneled old mantels. "Mr. Howard," said L, "those mantels are about as plain as yon could make 'em, and yet they are very handsome, somehow, dingy as they are." "It's the lines," said Hard Cider. "Jest the right lines. Lower 'em six inches, and whar*d they be?" "Could you build me a bookcase, against the wall, just like them, from one to the other, and bring It out at right angles five feet Into the room from the center, making it the back of a double settle?" I asked. "I'm a carpenter." Hard replied laconically. I took his pencil and sketched what I wanted on a clean board. "Yer got too much curve on the base and arms o' them settle*," he said Judicially. He took the pencil away from me, and made a quick, neat accurate sketch of Just what I Instantly saw I did w a n t I shrugged my shoulders. "Go ahead!" said I. "What did you ask me to draw It for In the first placeY* "Folks likes to think they hev their own ldees," he answered. I turned away, through the new south door, into the May sunshine. The pergola was not commenced. In fact, I had decided not to bnild It till the following spring. Those beastly painte n whom I bad forgotten were going to eat up too much of my slender capital. Before me stretched the 250 feet of plowed slope which was to be my sundial lawn. At the end of it was my line of stakes, where the ramblers were to climb. Beyond that was the vegetable garden, newly harrowed and fertilised, where Mike and Joe were busily working, the one planting peas, the other setting out a row of beets. The horse was not In evidence. I could have him at last to make my lawn! I ran around the noose to the stable, put on the harness, hitched him to my new drag scraper, and drove Ida to the slope. The ground here sloped down eastward toward the brook, and if I was to have a level lawn sooth of my hoots, I should hare to remove at least two feet of soil from the western sad sad deposit tt on the eastern end. I wisely decided to start dose to the boose.

I did some rapid multiplication, dropped the reins and moved toward my stakes. I saw that Joe and Mike were looking at me. "I think," said I, with some dignity, as I began to pull the stakes up, "that this lawn will look better square. As If s a hundred feet broad, a hundred feet will be far enough to extend it from the house." "Sure," said Mike, "the big road scraper '11 be over here tomorrow, scrapln' the road, and It do be easier an' quicker to borry t h a t " In some ways, I consider thia remark of Mike's, under the clrcumstancea, one of the most gentlemanly I ever heardl And I Jumped at his suggestion. "Mike," said I, "I'll admit this Job is bigger than 1 thought How can I borrow the road scraper?' "Sure, ain't me frind Dan Morrissey one o' the selictmen?" said Mike, "and ain't he the road boss, and ain't he wlllin' to earn an extra penny for— for the t o w n ? ' "H'h," said I; "for the town!

Mrs. Temple was beaming when I came down from my bath. "Well," said she, "In the flrst place, I've got you the housekeeper I w a n t " "By which I infer that she's the one I want, too?' I asked. "Of course," said Mrs. Temple, on whom irony had no effect "She's Mrs. Pillig, from Slab City, and she's an artist in pies. Pillig ain't dead, worse luck, but he's whar he won't trouble you. I guess Peter won't trouble you none, neither. He's a nice boy, and he'll be awful handy round the place." "Peter Pillig!" I exclaimed. "There ain't no such animal! If there la, Dickens was hla grandfather. How old Is Peter?" "Peter's eleven," Mrs. Bert replied. "He's real nice and bright His mother's brought him up fine. Anyhow, she was a Corliss." "But eogenlcally speaking, Peter may have a predisposition to follow In father's footsteps, which I Infer led toward the little green swinging doors," I protested. "Speakin* U. S.

"Well, seein's how you keep Peter, as It were, and Mrs. Pillig calc'lates she can rent her house op to Slab City, she's goin' to come to you for twenty dollars a month. She's wuth It too. You'll have the best kept and cleanest house In Bentford." I rose from the table solemnly. "Mrs. Temple," said 1, "I accept Mrs. Pillig, Peter and the pies at these terms, but only on one condition: She Is never to clean my study!" "Why?' asked Mrs. Temple. "Because," said I. "you can never tell where an orderly woman will put things." Bert chuckled as be filled bis pipe. Mrs. Temple grinned herself.

The scraper was a large affair with flat-tired Iron wheels and a blade eight feet long. The way that eightfoot blade, with four horses hauling i t peeled off the old furrows and brought the top soil down from the high side to the low made my poor efforts with the scoop look puny enough. The lawn was shaping up so fast that I began once more to grow expansive. "It really won't be square," thought I, "because my pergola will cut off twelve feet of the length, and If ! have flower beds by the roses they'll cut off some more. 1 guess those rosea ought to be one hundred and twelve feet from tb* bouse." I threw down my shovel, went over to the row of stakes, and moved them south again, twenty-five feet having added thirteen feet as I walked; then I called out to "frind Morrissy" to bring his scraper.

In a certain English provincial town .here lives an old maid who haa the reputation of being about the fastest talker on record, added to which her tongue hai more thar the average amount of venom.

"Have you noticed the 'Appalling Conditions In Kansas"** saya the Topeka CapltaL "Well, If you haven't, the brewers have. It is awful. The publicity agent of the Wholesale Liquor Dealera' association in 1916, serial No. 12, lays bare all the details. And awful 18 no name for It. The state la a regular shambles, as a result of prohibition. Infanticide la a popular sport, fall and summer. No baby's life Is safe in Kansas, the publicity expert haa learned. Relatives thirst for the lives of the little ones. Dirt, destitution and disease prevail. Flashily dressed lassies prowl the streets In droves In search of their prey, and no man is safe." The Capital goes on to quote some of the scare headlines of the Liquor Men's publicity serial and concludes: "Kansas might aa well face the proposition squarely. Any attempts at Improvement made in the state, no matter along what lines, will be seized upon by the liquor Interests to show that the conditions existing in the state are 'appalling,' and the 'appalli n g Is due entirely to prohibition. It Is understood the next serial issued will explain how it was that the prairie fires in western Kansas were due to the state prohibitory amendment. You may not see the connection, but the bright young man employed as publicity agent for the National Wholesale Liquor Dealers' association won't miss it. Not he. He is going to show up in all its abysmal horror the awful fate that has overtaken Kansas because It tried to shut out that safeguard of the home and savior of the nation, intoxicating liquor." A8 GERMAN-AMERICANS 8EE IT. "On the train this morning I rode down with a German acquaintance,'' said a Nebraska man from the South Platte country. "In the course of our talk I asked him the usual question: 'How about prohibition?' 'It'll go dryby a majority of 5,000 to 10,000,' was his answer. 'What makes you think so?' I asked. 'HI tell you,* he said. 'I was bom in the old country. Over there and over here I have always taken a drink whenever I felt like it. I never drank to excess, and I never could see any harm in the moderate use of liquor such as I and my friends were accustomed to. But the trouble Is that our sons have gotten away from the old customs. To speak plainly, they drink to excess. We Germans despise drunkenness just as much as you Americans despise It. When we see our BOUS degrading themselves In The only way to do this is to blot out the American saloon. I am going to vote dry next fall, and my neighbors are going to vote dry with me.' " Impudence to ring the front-doorbeli A moment later the door was opened, j this way we decide to call a halt and when the lad. saw who it was she at once gave him a piece of her mind, finally concluding with "And now then you can be off. There's nothing you can sell me that will be of any use to me!" The peddler, who was evidently no novice at getting his own back, turned on his heel, sweetly saying as did so: "No, mum, seeing as ow Im only sellln' mouse-traps an' not muzzles, I don't see as ow there is!" Hla Home Ml sal on. -Have you ever paused to reflect, Mr. Jones,'' said the new minister, "that In the course ot time we must all join the great silent majority?" "1 never thought ot it in that light, parson," replied Jones, "out now that you nave brought up the subject I wish you would mention it to my wife and try to impress it on her mind that she should begin practicing silence while here on earth."

One of the arguments against prohibition Is that It confiscates property. It has been well pointed out that this argument overlooks the fact that prohibition does not take from the brewers, distillers and saloon keepers "a foot of ground that they own or a single brick out of any of their buildings. They have their property just as they had it before, but they cannot use it for the same purpose. However, there are other purposes for which It can be used. When the saloon is driven out the building can be used for the sale of things that are helpful, and the buildings now used for distilleries and breweries can be utilised for other business enterprises, as they have been In states that have-adopted prohibition, with distinct profit to the property owners. -*•> • - / -j A New Way Church—I see hfthraakee has installed 1ft pool or nOUard tables m sts public that* O M I D M WANTED, CONVICTS!

WS.:$h THE SIEGE OF YORKTOWN Here is told how American and French infantry, supported by the French navy, captured the army of Lord Comwallis and definitely turned the tide of the Revolutionary Pf^ar to victory for the Continental forces HE summer of 1781 was a time of despair for the thirteen American states at war with England. Their armies had been beaten, their money was gone, and it seemed that surrender wai Inevitable. Sir Henry Clinton, the British commander, was In New York.. Lord Comwallis was in Virginia with an army. Other British forces held Charleston and Savannah. Practically the whole South was conquered, and Lord Comwallis was determined to add Virginia to his list. Washington's feeble little army, with « French contingent under Count Rochambeau, was near New York watching Clinton. The only other regular force was in Virginia, commanded by Lafayette. The British fleet was at New York, while the French fleet was somewhere In the West Indies. Washington decided to hoodwink Clinton If possible. He made a great display with his troops before New York and convinced the British there that he Intended to attack them. Clinton sent a hurried dispatch to Cornwnllls asking him to send 3,000 men. That was Just what Washington wanted. While Clinton and Cornwallls both thought Washington Intended to at* tack New York, Washington left a small force in his intrenchments and started southward at night to trap Cornwnllis. The French and American troops marched swiftly across New Jersey, through Philadelphia and down .In Virginia, towards Yorktown, where Cornwallls had Ms headquarters. Cornwall is Heard Too Late. Comwallis heard of Washington's approach, but too late to escape. He began to Intrench at Yorktown and notified Clinton of his predicament Lafiyette, with his little force, took station at Williamsburg, only 12 miles away, and watched every move the British made. Williamsburg was a rebellious town, and at that time capital of Virginia. It was there that Patrick Henry made his famous speech in the house of burgesses in March, 1775. when he said: •There is no retreat but In submission and slavery. Our chains are forged; their clanking may be heard on the plains of Boston. . . . I tnow not what course others may lake, but as for me, give me liberty or five me death." Cornwallls had 7,000 soldiers and 8,000 teamsters and others. The French fleet under Admiral de Grease had smiled for the American coast •nd the British fleet was forced to take atsjkm to cover New York, where ft was believed the French weald strike, The two fleets met In tattle sad September 11, while the i s n i l r a i army was at Aanapot!*, the fleet sent the British ships hack to Hew York la 4a» KXcftuxc/fAT roivawzr* Ing on Washington's campaign, for it prevented Clinton from sending reenforcements to Cornwallls. Cornwallls now saw the net drawing around him. He sent messenger after messenger calling for more troops. None came. He was hemmed In. The French fleet blockaded the mouth of York river, and September 28 the French and American army marched out from Williamsburg and spread around the doomed town. Yorktown In that day was only a village of some 60 houses. The French troops occupied half the lines and the Americans the other half. They began regular siege tactics. Parties of sappers would steal out from the lines at night and silently build new parapets nearer the British lines. It was risky duty, but volunteers in plenty were found for the work. All Wat Not Well. The night of October 6, MaJ. Elijah Favor, who had surveyed the ground, commanded a redoubt building party. They stole quietly to within a quarter of a mile of the British lines. A few men stood guard while the others worked. No one was allowed to talk. The handles of all the tools were muffled so that not the slightest sound would be made. They were so close that the call of the British sentries of "Twelve o'clock and all's well/' came clearly to the ears of the Americans. Had the British only known I t all was not well. When morning came the British were astounded to see the fort that had risen during the night Major Favor had done his work welL His earthworks had been completed and two cannon mounted In diem. As soon aa the British saw this they began a furious bombardment, but it was futile. The American redoubt had been well built The next night heavier guns were placed in the American works, and a few nights later the daring Major Favor built a line of earthworks to dose to the British redoubts that one could almost hurl a ball from one to the other. October 12 the French and American coaaseattAers decided to storm two of the were large earthen redoubts, defended by troops and artillery. Two columns were organized among the French and American light Infantry. A column was to attack each redoubt. Col. Alexander Hamilton commanded the Americans. He had his men fix bayonets and then led them quietly to the attack. They were almost at the British defenses before a sentry distinguished their dim forms in the night. The alarm was given and firing began immediately. The Americans disdained to reply. They scrambled up the steep earth walls and drove the gunners away with the bayonet. Comwallis Is Desperate. Such courage was too much for the British. Some ran and others threw down their arms. The French met with a stiffer reception. For an hour and a half the fighting went on In their redoubt. Then the British capitulated. Thus, in one night, the allied army had sealed Comwallis securely In the trap. Cornwallls now became desperate. He tried every means he could Invent to force Washington to withdraw. October 14 a strong party of British troops made a sortie. They fought bravely but were outnumbered and before morning came had been driven back Into their works. The British general next tried to move his army across the river and take Washington on the flank. Winds and high water forced him to abandon this project All this time Cornwallls had been using the home of Governor Nelson of Virginia for his headquarters. Governor Nelson commanded the militia in the army of Washington* The night of October 16, General Washington sent for Governor Nelson and told him that he planned to bombard the town and show Cornwallls how helpless resistance was. Brave Governor Nelson, " B u t " Washington added, "your home may be destroyed in the fight" "Do not let that stand In the way," Governor Nelson replied. "I will fire the first ball at my house myself." The next morning the brave governor kept his word. He aimed and fired the first shot of a terrific cannonade that covered every part of the British lines. Amid the uproar of the cannonade the Americans heard the British drums beating the parley. Soon a white flag came over the ramparts and a British officer delivered a message from Lord Cornwallls asking for a 24-hour truce, during which time commissioners would discuss earreader. Washington refused. In 24 hoars hei knew CUnton might send a fleet and more troops and CornwalHs would escape. He gave the British two hoars.

RATHER ROUGH ON TOMPKINS Girls Might at Least Have Chosen Some Other Tune for Their First Rendition. Mr. Tompkins is a hard-working man at his trade as a shoemaker. By laboring early and late he managed to earn enough to educate and dress his two daughters very well. Now, he was so proud of these girls that at last he bought them a piano. A few days after the arrival of the instrument a friend saw him. "Hello, Tompkins!" he said; "and how did the piano go off?" "Beautifully, Smith," replied the shoemaker, "the girls were as grateful as possible, and it's fine to hear them singing and playing. But what do you suppose was the very first tune they learned?" "Dunno, I'm sure," was the friend's reply. " 'Everybody Works but Father,'n - said Tompkins mournfully. — Pittsburgh Chronicle. Reminder of Famous Jester.

The first step, says Pearson's Magazine, Is stamping out disks from great sheets of steel. A machine that exerts a pressure of one hundred and fifty tons, and can cut out five thousand disks a day, does that work. Each disk Is placed under n shaping machine, which presses the disk Into the form of a helmet with a broad rim. Polishing and cutting machines remove all Irregularities in the helmet, after which holes are punched In the crown—some for ventilation purposes, others for fastening on the regimental crest. Each helmet is cleaned and dipped In a special mixture that makes It a dull, Inconspicuous bluish gray. A lining and leather chin straps are then fastened on, and the helmet is complete. Since the French troops have begun to wear helmets the number of deaths from wounds In the head has decreased to a remarkable extent 8ome Kicks.

An Excellent Treatment of the Front Door With Ivy Trained Over the Pillars. FLORAL HINTS By E. VAN BENTHUYSEN. Considering the small amount of care it requires, there Is no flower more satisfactory and beautiful than the dahlia. Such hardy bulbs as hyacinths, tulips, lilies, crown imperials, phlox, iris and the like, do better, as a rule, If allowed to remain In the ground undisturbed for years. If you have any cold-frame plants, such as violets, roses and carnationB, don't fail to expose them more and more to the air for gradual hardening off before planting. Try growing geraniums this year. Next to carinas, they will give more satisfaction for the trouble expended than almost any other flower mentionable. Be sure you get those, however, adapted for growing in beds. When your Easter lilies get through blooming, water them until the leaves begin to fade, then withhold water until the tops die. When that occurs you can put the pots in the cellar and leave them there until autumn. Gladiolus bulbs will blossom a year earlier if peeled before planting. Being dry, the husk requires a long time to soak up so the new growth can penetrate it, but if it is removed growth starts at once. For a perpetual delight all summer few vines are better to grow than the Madeira and the Columbian climber. Their foliage is of a very rich, glossy green, and the delicate white flowers, or flower-clusters of the Madeira vine are not only abundant, but deliclously fragrant Both Tines are easy to grow and In a fairly good soil will attain a height of 20 to 25 feet Although the asparagus sprengerl r produces only tiny flowers, its foliage Is so glorious, so green and restful to the eye. that it Is a plant much to be desired. Not requiring a great amount of sun, it can be placed back of other plants and, if somewhat above them, its rich beauty will act as a charming foil. For speedy results there is no annual vine more desirable than the morning glory, in all its varieties. While it it true that the blossoms are not lasting, they present a lively spectacle In the morning, adequate to reward anyone rising In time to review them. It Is doubtful if there Is any other one thing In the culture of house plants so little understood as the proper application of moisture. Generally the best way to determine when a plan needs water Is to take a pinch of the soil and rub it between the thumb and finger. If dry enough to become powdery, water should be applied; but if It is still so damp as to mold between the fingers no more water will be needed for a time. Lilies are, of course, an exception to this rule, and, in fact, almost all kinds of bulbs. Pansies are a desirable flower to have and a 5-cent package will be sufficient for one ordinarily to grow. They want to be started indoors In a box full of rich soil and kept in a slightly shaded place. The dirt should be damp all the time, to insure which requires frequent watering; and when the pansies are planted out it is better on this account to have the bed on the north side of the house. There. If given a little care, they can be made to bloom till frost comes in the fall. MAKE SPARE-MINUTE GARDEN By L. M. BENNINGTON. No. 1. Annuals for a sunny garden with planty of water.

The Effects of Opiates. THAT INFANTS are peculiarly susceptible to opium aad its various preparations, all of which are narcotic, is well known. Even in the smallest closes, if continued* these opiates cause changes in the functions and growth of the cells which are likel v to become permanent, causing imbecility, mental perversion, a craving for alcohol or narcotics in later life. Nervous diseases, such as intractable nervous dyspepsia and lack of staying powers are a result of dosing with opiates or narcotics to keep children quiet In their infancy. The rule among physicians is that children should never receive opiates in the smallest dooes for more than a day at a time, and only then if unavoidable. The administration of Anodynes, Drops. Cordials, Soothing Syrups and other narcotics to children by any but a physician cannot be too strongly decried, and the druggist should not be a party to i t Children who are iu need the attention of a physician, and it ia nothing lees than a crime to dose them willfully with narcotics, Caatoria contains no narcotics if it bears the signature of Chas.

Faced by demands from the conductors, engineers, firemen and brakemcn that would impose on the country an additional burden in transportation costs of $100,000,000 a year, the railroads propose that this wage problem be settled by reference to an impartial Federal tribunal. With these employes, whose efficient service is acknowledged, the railroads have no differences that could not be considered fairly and decided justly by such a public body. Railroads Urge Inquiry and Arbitration The formal proposal of the railroads to the employes for the settlement of the controversy is as follows: "Our conference* hive demoaatrated that we c&nnot harmonize our difference* of opinion and that ereatually tht matters in controversy must be passed upon by other and disinterested igcnciet. Therefore, we prepoM that youi proposals and the proposition or the railway* be disposed of by one or the other of tha following methods: 1. Preferably by submission to the Interstate Commerce Commission, the only tribunal which, by reason of it* accumulated information bearing on railway conditions and its control of the revenue of the railways, is in a pttti- HOC to consider and protect the rights and equities of all the interests affected, and U) proridc. additional revenue necessary to meet the added cost or operation in case your proposals are found by the Com mission to be just s a d reasonable; or, in the event the Interstate Commerce Commission cannot, under existing laws, act in the premises, chat we jointly request Congress to take such action a* may be necessary to enable the Commission to consider aud promptly dispose of the questions involved; or 2. By arbitration) in accordance with the provisions of the Federal law" ( T h e New lands Act). Leaders Refuse Offer and Take Strike Vote Leaders of the train service brotherhoods, at the joint conference held in New York, June 1-15, refused the offer of the railroads to submit the issue to arbitration or Federal review, and the employes are now voting on the question whether authority shall be given these leaders to declare a nation-wide strike. The Interstate Commerce Commission is proposed by the railroads as the public body to which this issue ought to be referred for these reasons: North Hamburg A. W.

Consult „ as before going elsewhere nDDDDDD No other body with tuch an intimate knowl-dge of railroad conditions has such an unqueationed position in the public confidence. T h e ratei the railroads may charge the public for transportation are now largely fixed by this Government board. Out of every dollar received bv the railroads from the public nearly one-half is paid directly to the employes at wages ; and the money to pay increased wage* can come from no other fcouice than the rate* paid by the public. T h e Interstate Commerce Commission, with its control over rates, is in £ position tn rr.nke a compete investigation and render »ut h lit r: v^t: as u c i u : protect the interests of the ranroac emp.L>e:>, the u w n e n of the railroads, and trie pubi o. i Unadilla Mrs. Afcel'itje is hperj'linL; the 1 we> k tvi'h ' ^ r 1H\i<_-hfer at Ann !Art;cr.

Jri the first inning a walk,, a tingle r.:.d then a long drive by Fuul Kuhn siarted the ball rolling and four scores were ran before Pinkn^y was finally retired. The main foaturea of the game were McClear's line work i.i the box, r owierville getting only one score on him ; Paul Kuhn's heavy hitting, and the all-round good playing of H. Swarthout. In <.h*- seventh inning th'j -score stood 7 t'j : m Pirn.-kney's iaVor and MeCic-ar was taken out ni the box to sav^ hi^ arm for Tuesday's game at Cregory, Ward Swarthout liking his place and Harold Swart.!w:t relieving Paul Kulm as catcher. In t h e next three innings Fowlermanaged to get in rive scores bringing the score up to 10 and o* in Pinckney'fi favor. The last inning Fowlerville was at bat waa very interesting, «11 three outs being made at the homeplate, some clever work being pulled off by Harold Swarthout Pinckney was defeated " to 0 in a very interesting game at Gregory the 4th with the Stockbridge team. The game was a pitcher's battle from start to finish. Guy Kuhn of Gregory throwing for Stockbridge and Louis Weurth of Munith for Pinckney. The five runs made by Stockbridge were gained on the .numerous errors by Pinckney, who showed lack of practice and team work. The fine pitching on both sides was the main feature of the game.

No orchestra of equal rank, we a r e positive, has heretofore been avail- • able for chautauqua bookings. Its musical mission is to chautauquas, therei fore it presents the class of music that c h a t a u q u a s desire to hear. The addition I of the harmonium, a reed organ of special constrnction, containing four full j sets of double reads including :6-foot pedal bass, affords t h e orchestral effects i in both tone coior and volume which a r e only obtainable by a very large orches- 1 t r a . Particularly efieetive is the playing of the harmonium and the piano a t ! the same time, by one player. In fact in musical worth, artistic excellence and '•• novel features, the Gluschkin Orcheatra sets a new standard.

Two automobile owners were last Thursday given evidence at Ann Arbor that Sheriff Lindenschmjdt was not bluffing when it was stated that a motorcycle cop had beer employed to patrol country roads and land speeders. The country speed limit is 25 miles and the sheriff's force is determined to maintain the limit. One was taken in on the Whitmore Lake road and the other on the Packard street road to Ypsilanti. It is claimed both were exceeding 40 miles an hour. On Friday evening a big car with J. M. Ward, of Indianapolis, at the wheel began to bit the high spots on the Ypsilanti-Ann Arbor road. Motor Cop Porter was notified and he soon picked up the speeding car. Ward paid a fine and costs totaling Sl.Y Ypsilanti Record.

Use of Specially Designed T r a p Is Most Effective Method of Freeing Infested Ground—Three Devices Described. ( F r o m t h e U n i t e d B t a t e b D e p a r t m e n t of A g r i c u l t u r e . ) The common g a / d e n mole, which, because of its Insectivorous hubits, la In most situations much more beneficial than harmful, la a decided nuisa n c e when it lnvudes a well-kept luwu or n newly planted seedbed. Many reports of Its d a m a g e to lawns a r e received by the department, and also frequent complaints of destruction of potatoes, bulbs, and plants which is wrongly attributed to the mole. Damage to plants and tubers is generally the work of pine mice or meadow mice, usually the former. The burrowing habits of pine mice closely resemble those of the mole, and they frequently use mole tunnels to reach growing plants. Fine mice may easily be killed with poisoned grain, but a s moles will seldom take poisoned baits of any kind, the main dependence for destroying them is traps, and considerable experience and judgment are required to use them effectively. The ordinary traps intended for rats and other rodents a r e useless for taking moles. Special mole traps, of which there are on the market three genera! types, are required. These may be designated as the harpoon, the soissor-jaw. and the choker types, operator may make a small break la the ridge and observe whether the mole repairs it withm a few Injurs, in placing u trap, one of the stretches of the runway that leads In a definite direction should be chosen r a t h e r than one of the t u r n s that may not be regularly traversed by the mole. Before setting the trap, it Is well to ascertain the course of the burrow by thrusting down if lead pencil, or stick of similar size. The trap selected should then be fined up with the course as nearly ay possible; the j a w s of the srlssor-jaw type should straddle it, the loops of the choker type should encircle it, and the spikes of the harpoon type should be directly above It. In the case of the harpoon type, it is best to force the Impaling spikes Into the ground once or twice to facilitate their penetrating into the burrows when the trap is sprung. It is desirable also, in setting any of the traps, to depress only that part of the ridge Immediately under the trigger pan, using the hand instead of the foot for this purpose. A little earth or a small chip of wood may be placed under the pan if necessary. The trigger catch should^ be set as lightly as possible, and one should avoid stepping on any part of the runway near the trap. It will pay to visit traps at least twice a day. Moles are persistent In repairing breaks In their tunnels and may often be surprised at their work. It Is easy then to capture the animal by impaling It with a fork or throwing It out by a quick thrust of spade or shovel. A section of the runway may first be broken open or leveled and the place watched until the animal Is observed moving the soil. Moles a r e sometimes trapped In empty glass jars, gallon size. The j a r should be set along a main mole runway that has been long In use. A narrow excavation, deep enough to receive the jar and allow its top to be somewhat below the bottom of the tunnel, should be made. The sod may then be replaced over the excavation so as to bridge without obstructing the entrance to the jar. The animal in coming along the tunnel falls Into the j a r and cannot climb out. Success depends much on the skill used in placing the trap. Repeated leveling of mole ridges on a lawn by means of a roller not only tends to discourage the animals from making further Incursions, but prevents the soil from drying out and thus Injuring grass roots. For further Information about the mole, Its habits, and methods of control, the reader Is referred to F a r m e r s ' 1 Bulletin 583, "The Common Mole of i the Eastern United States." Mole Traps—a, Harpoon; b, Scissor- Jaw; c, Choker. marked a, b, and c, respectively, In the accompanying illustration. Harpoon traps a r e Intended to impale the mole In the soil by spring-driven spikes. Scissor-jaw t r a p s are to be set astride the runway to g r a s p the mole when it a t t e m p t s to pass In either direction. The choker t r a p has a pair of wire loops that encircle the burrow when the t r a p is set. AH these traps are sprung by the same sort of mechanism—a trigger pan resting on a depressed place in the mole ridge In such way as to be lifted when the animal passes beneath. No part of a set mole trap should ever be in the runway, as Its presence makes the animal avoid the obstruction by burrowing around or below i t Directions for Setting T r a p s , Only general directions for setting mole traps can be given here, nor are detailed instructions necessary, since the makers of t r a p s usually furnish specific directions for using them. A mole trap can be successfully operated only when set on that p a r t of a mole runway which is near the surface and has the soil raised into a distinct ridge, newly worked. Freshly broken soil usually indicates t h a t the tunnel is In use.

ROOT CROPS FOR LIVE STOCK Big Tonnage Secured From Beets and Mangels—Plants Draw Especially Heavy on Phosphorus. Sugar beets and mangels grown for stock will produce big tonnages. Mangels like a r a t h e r cool climate and sugar beets are grown successfully in about the same general latitude that grapes are produced easily and somewhat north of that belt, says a writer in Farm and Home. Put your root crops In a good fertile soil, plowed deep and well tilled, if you expect a heavy tonnage. Work up a good seedbed and If the land la not already very rich put on some well rotted m a n u r e after plowing. Root crops draw especially heavy on phosphorus. Plant the beets in drills with the rows far enough a p a r t that cultivation is not difficult. Put the rows 20 to 30 Inches apart. P l a n t about corn-planting time.

Some people think that because trees have roots they should grow nearly on top of. every ditch In the country. For ten years I planted trees yearly. Half the trees I planted the first year failed because I didn't know bow to plant properly. I said to myself there was something wrong somewhere, either in the trees or in my want of knowing how to plant. I experimented a couple of years and found out the secret of my failure. Half of the young trees are nearly useless for planting, on account of the way^ that they are pulled at the nurseries. Some men, when they go pulling trees in the nurseries, pull away Just as though they were pulling turnips in a hurry, slapping the roots together and throwing them away as if they were no more than rotten limbs. Young trees, to my mind, should be handled as carefully as eggs. They should be dug out of the ground. When the roots are strained tn the pulling they grow the first year badly and then die away. I examined the roots of a dozen young trees; there were two strained, and I cut the roots short in two more, for experiment's sake The ones that were not strained grew healthy from the start and are growing well. The ones that were strained grew nearly right the first year, and died the second year, and the ones that I cut a little of the roots off lived in "decline." The roots, when planting, should be spread out evenly in a hroad hole, not deep, the roots Just barely covered. Where some, or most people, perhapB, make the mistake is in Bticking the roots in a bundle In a deep hole. Trees planted in this fashion are bound to fail. At least it has been my experience. Some people give the trees a pull up after planting. With this method 1 don't agree. There is no.need of any more handling. It Is Important to press the roots, secondly, say after a month, because If the air gets down alongside the stem the tree is liable to fall. 1 have found always that the fall was the best time for planting When they were put in later 1 had more failures. Another thing I noticed in planting. If the young trees are any length of time pulled, they are pretty sure to "go under.'' I always steep th^ roots in a hole of • soft water the day before planting, a^.d I have found them to grow and take root more quickly than ii they had not been steeped. FLOWER HINTS FOR BEGINNER By E. VAN BENTHUYSEN. Flowers should have a friable, very fertile soil in which to grow Often , they will make a fine showing in very poor soil, but like humans they appreciate good care. \ Do not allow thu flowers to form seeds. As soon as the flowers begin to fade, pinch them off; your flowers will keep in bloom much longer and the blooms will be larger if you pay attention to this little detail. Pansies and sweet peas particularly require looking after. Use your flowers in borders and around the sides of your lawn. Never make flower beds in the center of your lawn. A bit of green turf well cared for is an asset to any home grounds. If you want a soft, thick turf on your lawn mow it often and let the clippings lie where they fall. This keeps the Boil from drying out too j much and helps fertilize it as it de- ; cays, | Support sweet peas on a hedge of brush This is better than poultry i netting, as the sun does not heat it i and burn the tender tendrils of the j clinging sweet pea. j Plant your shade trees far enough away from the house to allow the air to circulate around the house. Sunshine in the home is a tonic and care should be exercised when planting that trees do not interfere or shade the windows too much. Do not plant your flowers too close together. Give them all a chance for life. Pansies should be planted ten inches apart; Petunias and Verbenas at least IS inches apart; Marigolds, two feet, Popples, 10 inches; ZlnntaB, 18 inches, and Phlox, a foot Flowers will not be plentiful or thrifty if grown too close together More Stirring.

ROBB, HOWELL, MICHIGAN <gg The Wheat YieJd^g Tells the Story off Westirn Canada's Rapid Progress The heavy crops in Western Canada have caused new records to be made in the handling of grains by railroads. For, while the movement of these heavy shipments has been wonderfully rapid, the resources of the different roads, despite enlarged equipments and increased facilities, have been strained as never before, and previous records have thus been broken in all directions. The largest Canadian wheat shipments through New York ever known are reported for the period up to October 15th, u p w a r d s of four and • q u a r t e r million b u s h e l s being exported In lean t h a n six week** and this was but the overflow of shipments to Montreal, through which point shipments were much larger than to New York. Yields as high as 60 bushels of wheat per acre are reported from all parts of the country; while yields of 45 bushels per acre are common. Thousands of American farmers have taken part in this wonderful production. Land prices are still low and free homestead lands sre eisily secured In good localities, convenient to churches, schools, markets, railways, etc There Is n« war fax oa lead and BO coascrtptlos.

Reports show that the fighting is continued unabated all along the 25 mile front. T h e German defense has atiffenel determinedly following the shock of the first onslaught in which the Anglo- French hosts p e n e t r a t e d the German line:< over a front of nearly 20 miles and to a distance In t h e center of five miles. The Teutons, apparently reinforced by their reserves, a t t a c k e d vigorously at Montauban, t h e point of the wedge which the Allies had driven into their lines, and also at Hardecourt, but were repulsed. At no point have the Germans recovered any of the ground lost. T h e town of Fricourt was captured by the British after a terrific struggle. The town had been virtually cut off by the British capture of Mametz, on the east, and Montauban on the northeast, and its fall had been expected hourly. Here the British captured 800 unwounded prisoners and thus increased their captives to a total of 3,500. The British official s t a t e m e n t shows* that the heaviest fighting occurred in the area between the Ancre and the Somme, on the northern section of the Somme front, especially about Fricourt and La Boiseelle. Following the reduction of Fricourt, the British made some progress east of lhe village. Near La Boisselle the Germans are offering particularly stubborn resistance, but the British here also, the war office announces, are making satisfactory progress. During the fighting the British statement discloses, British aeroplanes were very active in co-operating with the land forces and afforded valuabl° assistance by bombing n u m e r o u s German field h e a d q u a r t e r s and railway centers. In one of these raids, t h e j British aviators were a t t a c k e d by a . score of F o k k e r s , .but succeeded in , driving them or. Two of the F o k k e r s fell and were destroyed. T h r e e of the British aeroplanes are reported miss- j ing and probably fell behind the German lines. MARKET QUOTATIONS Live Stock D E T R O I T — C a t t l e : Receipts, 1,967.

Bank Clearings Increase—Agriculture Is a Paying Industry— Manufactures Doing Welt. "Business experts assert thul Canada is on the threshold of perhaps the most prosperous era in her history. The unprecedented value of the farm products ot 1915, together with the very large output of factories working on munitions of war has suddenly brought the country into a position, financially, s c a r c e l y hoped for us a nation for yeurs to come. Export surplus of $50.01)0,000 a month 1» muking Canada very strong ia cash." —Extract from official bulletin of February 11, 1916. The response by the farmers of Canada to the call for Increased production In 1015 was n total net output exceeding one billion dollars, an Increase over normal years of at least three hundred millions. The three Prairie Provinces contributed probably nearly one-half of the total produ c t | T h e wheat crop was worth $310,000,- j 000, und accounted for about 30 per cent of the total agricultural product. , Other things counted also. Look at I dairying. In Ontario the dairy pro- , duction was Increased 20 per cent, and prices were over 10 per cent ahead of 1914. Other provinces shared in the Increase, especially Alberta^ Saskatchewan, Quebec and Nova Scotia. The dairy cow \v<;s "on the Job" in 1915. So also were the beef cattle, the pigs and the hens. It is not fair to the farmers of the Prairies to call the wheat crop of 1915 n "miracle" crop. The fanners cultivated more land and pave attention to their seed. Providence gnve them favorable weather. Then they toiled early and late in the harvesting and threshing. Good cultivation guve bigger yields than careless work, 45 bushels as against 25. The wealth of Western Canada is by no menus nil in Its wheat crop. If the country had no wheat at all It would still be famous as a land of successful fnrmers on account of Its stock production. From one shipping point (High River, Alberta) over $75,000.00 worth of horses have been sold In the last two months. The nvenipp price to the fanner has been about $175.00 per head. According to Government returns there lire a million and n half horses In Mnnitobn, Saskatchewan and Alberta, worth probably $150,000,000. The Investments which fanners of Western Cnnndn are making In livestock Jim! farm Improvements are good evidence of the fnrt that they have money for these purposes. It Is apparent, however, thnt they are also spending some of th»Mr profits on those things which will hrina ureater comfort and enjoyment to themselves, their wives nnd thfir fnnillies. The automobile trade .ill through the country is particularly nctlve. and f a n n e r s ure the biggest buyers." A recent report of the Saskatoon district shows that In two months u million dollars' worth of automobiles have been sold, largely to farmers. Nor a r e all of these cars of the cheaper m a k e s ; some high-priced machines a r e In demand. Bank cleurtngs throughout the Western Provinces show greater commercial activity than at the same season In 1915 or 1914. the Increase for the last week of February being $8,000,000 and almost $9,000,000, respectively, for the first week of March $15,000,- 000 over 1915 and $18,000,000 over 1914.

Canada's bank clearings for the month of February. 1916, were the greatest for a n y F e b r u a r y In the country's history. T h e totals amounted to $664,222,000.00, as compared with $487,296,000.00 for the s a m e month a y e a r ago.

Bert belpa me to nlr* a carpenter a»d a farmer. Hard Older, the carpenter, estimates' the repairs said changes necessary on the house. Mike commences plowing. I start to prune the orchard tree. Hard Cider builds bookcases around the twin fireplaces. Mrs. Temple hires Mrs. Plllis for mo as a housekeeper, and announces the comlntr of a n^w boarder from New York. When a bachelor, who be- I (eves himself impervious to lovely woman's wiles, reaches the age when he begins to think that marriage is the better state of life for man-—and then meets one of those lovely women—he performs In a manner highly amusing to folks already married. C H A P T E R V—Continued. "Sure," gaid Mike, "you'll git It right y e t But I was goln' to put me cauliflowers there." I paid "frind Morrissy"—for the town!—as the far*off noon whistle at Slab City blew, and took my lunch down to the brook while the scraper rattled off down the road. The brook reminded me of the pool I was going to build, and the pool of a vague dream, last night of the new boarder, and then, with the patness of a "well-made" play the boarder herself entered, as It were. That is, I heard the buggy coming, and the voice of Bert. I lay down flat behind the tall weeds and grasses, and remained hidden till the buggy had passed. Then I finished my lunch, and lay for a quarter of an hour lazily regardlag the sky, a great blue sky with cloud ships floating at anchor In Its depths, while the Indescribable fragrance of May in moist places filled my nostrils and a song sparrow practiced in the alders. As I got up to return to my work, I saw suddenly that the old apple trees In my orchard were showing pink—just a fralPhint of !t in the veil of young green. A great cumulus cloud piled up like a Himalayan peak in the west beyond my mouse-gray dwelling. To the left, the new lawn was shiny brown, and as I climbed the slopes the smell of It came to me. Out still farther to the left my land was already staked in rows of packed earth, neatly. The scene was beautiful to my eyes, and the imagined beauty of tomorrow made me almost run through the orchard to leave my lunch basket in the kitchen and get my tools for the afternoon's work. At five o'clock, as Joe was leaving the garden, and Mike had gone to the barn to milk the cows, I, too, put up my tools, resolved to enjoy an hour's loaf—my first since I bought the farmJ I scrubbed my hands and face at the kitchen sink in a tin basin which recalled my childhood, took a long draft from the tin dipper, filled my pipe, and strolled down through the budding orchard toward the brook. The song sparrow was still singing. The cloud ships were still riding at anchor. Even with my pipe in my mouth I could smell the odor of moist plaoes In May. Walking beside the brook, I suddenly found the green spears of an trig plant amid the grasses, I bad scarcely gone six paces when I heard the crackle of footsteps on dead twigs somewhere ahead of me, and a moment later the vague form of a woman was visible making her way amid the impeding dead branches, I stood still. She did not gee m e till she was close up. Then she gave a alight start and said, "I beg your pardon. I trust I am not trespassing." I looked at her, while my pipe bowl wag hot In my calloused hand. She was scarce more than a girl, I. fancied, pale and unmistakably not of this country world. I cannot say how she wag dressed,, save that she wore no hat and looked white and cool. But I saw that she bad very, blue eyes on each side of a decidedly tilted nose, and these eyes were unmistakably the kind which twinkle. "Trespassing *• a relative term," •aid L after thir, I fear, rather redely prolonged scrutiny. "Ton talk like 'Hill's Rhetoric,*" t h e smiled, with a quick glance at the incongruity of my clothes. "Naturally," I replied. -It waa the textbook ! formerly «aed with my There was a little upward gargle • f laaghter from the girl.

"I am trying to forget" "And are these pines yours to forget In? It should be easy. 1 was walking out there in the road, and I spied the brook over the wall and climbed through the briers to walk beside it, because It was trying so hard to talk to me. That was wrong of me, perhaps, but I never could resist a brook—nor pine trees. They are such nice old men." "Why, then," I asked, "are the little virgin birches always running away from them?" Her eyes contracted a second, and then twinkled. "The birches plague them," she replied. "How do they plague them?" I demanded. "Pull their pine needles when they are asleep, of course," she answered. 'Thank you for letting me walk here." "Not at all," said I, l1t la always a pleasure to entertain a true naturali s t " She smiled and made to pass on. I stood a little aside, in silence. And in that moment of silence suddenly, from near at hand, from somewhere in these very pines, there rang out the golden throb of a hermit thrush so close that the grace notes of his song were audible, cool and liquid and lovely. The suddenness, the nearness, the wildness of this song made it indescribably thrilling, and the girl and I both stood rigid, breathless, peering into the gloom of the pines. Again the call rang out, but a little farther away this time, more plaintive, more fairylike with distance. She took a step as if to follow, and instinctively I put out my hand, grasping her arm to restrain her. So we stood and waited, while from farther still, evidently from the tamaracks in the corner of my lot, came the elfin clarion. The singer l Put Out My Hand to Restrain Her. was a good one; his attack was flawless, and he scattered his triplets with Mosartian ease and precision. Still we waited, in alienee, but he did not sing again. Then in a kind of wonder the girl turned her face to mine, and in a kind of wonder I realized that I was still holding her arm. She appeared as unconscious of It as I, till I let my hand fait. Then she colored a. little, smiled a little, and said, "What was it? I never heard anything so beautiful." "A hermit thrush," I answered. "Thoreau once described his song as 'cool bars of melody from the everlasting morning or evening.* I think that expresses it as well as words can," "I hare always wasted to bear a hermit" she said wistfully. "And. oh, it Is lovelier than I dreamed 1 I am going now before I get too Jealous of you for having one all your own.** "Don't g o r I said impulsively. T h e hermit has never gang for me. That song most bars been in your honor.** The moment when I stood holding her arm, the moment when she had turned her wondering, eager face to mine, had been very pleasant. It wag dusk now in the pines, and, looking westward; the low sun wag making daggers of light between the trees.

"Birds eat early," KM id 1. "They have to, because thi-y get up »o early, after that worm." Her laugh waa ouee more au upgushing gurgle. The tenseness was broken. I found myself wuIking by her side through the maples, aud point Lug out my house. She clapped her huuds ecstatically. "Oh," she cried, "they made the front door out of a highboy! How jolly! Is it as nice inside?" "It's going to be nicer," said I. "I'll peep through the windows/' she smiled, T led her to my new south door, proudly showing my new lawn and the terrace, and telling her where the roses were to be, and the sundial, and dilating on the work my own hands had done. With a silly, boyiah enthusiasm, I even displayed the calluses and invited her to feel of them, which she did as one humors a child, while I thrilled quite as childishly at the touch of her finger tips. Then we peeped through the glass doors. The low sun waa streaming in through the west window and disclosed the old oak be<un across the celling. Hard Cider had erected the frame of the bookcase arid double settle, which would perfectly match the mantels as soon as the molding waa on. One side of the settle faced toward one smoky old fireplace, the other toward the second. "Two fireplaces! What luxury!" "You see," said 1. "when 1 get tired of reading philosophy at the east fireplace, I'll Just come around the corner and read 'Alice In Wonderland' at the west chimney nook." "Double fireplaces—twin fireplaces— twin fires! That's it, Twin Fires! That ought to be the name of your house." "You're right!" 1 cried, delighted. "I've never been able to think of a name. That's the inevitable one— that's Flaubert's one right word. Yon must come to my christening party and break a bottle of wine on the hearth." She smiled wistfully, as she turned away from the window. "I must surely go to supper," she said. "Ooodby, and thank you for your wonderful con c e r t " We walked to the road, but to mj surprise she did not turn toward the village but toward Bert's. A sudden light came. "Are you the broken-down boarder?" I cried. The gurgle welled up, and the blue eyes twinkled, but she made no reply. "Just for t h a t " said I, "I won't carry back Mrs. Bert's basket." As we entered the Temples' yard. Mrs. Bert stood in the kitchen door. "Well, you two seem to have got acquainted," Bhe remarked in a matterof- fact tone. "Miss Goodwin, this Is Mr. Upton 1 told you about Mr. Up ton, this is Miss Goodwin I told you about" "Mrs. Temple," snld I, "you are another. You didn't tell me." "Young man," she retorted, "where's my basket?" "I left it behind—on purpose." said I. "Then you'll hev ter come home to yer dinner tomorrow," she said. "Well, I'm willing." I answered. "I guess you be." said she. At sapper she returned to the theme, which appeared to amuse her endlessly. "Miss Goodwin," she said. "I want ter warn you thet Mr. Upton** terrible afraid somebody's goln' ter advise him now ter build his garden. He's a regular man." I replied quickly: "Your warning Is too late," said I; "Miss Goodwin has already begun by naming my place." "You can change the name, you know," the girl smiled.

"I'm just tired, that's all. I guess it's really spring fever. I saw a spear of real grass In Central park, and run away." "From what?" I asked. "From the dictionary," she replied. •'The which?" said I. "The dictionary. Would you like me to sing you a song of the things that begin with "by'?" She laughed again, and began to chant in burlesque Gregorian, "Hyopotamus. hyoscapular, hyoscine, Hyoscyamae, hyoscyamlne, Hyoscyamus—" "Stop!" I cried. "You will have me hypnotized. See, I'm on the "hy's" my- j self! Please explain—not sing." "Well," she laughed, "you see it's this way.

My doctor's thesis was published by the preas of my kind university, at $1.50 per copy, of which as many as seventeen were sold, and I'm still paying up the money I borrowed while preparing It. I stood the dictionary pretty well down to the 'hy's,' and then one day something snapped inside of me, and I began to cry. That wouldn't have been so bad, if I hadn't made the mistake of crying on a sheet of manuscript by a learned professor, about Hyoscyamus (which is a genus of dicotyledonous gamopetalous plants), and the Ink ran.

A young doctor recently took bis beat girl to the opera. The curtain was late In rising, and the young lady complained of feeling faint. The doctor smiled sweetly upon her, and took something out of his vest pocket. "Here," he whispered, "keep this in your mouth. Don't swallow it." Shyly the girl placed the object upon her tongue and rolled it over and over, but It would not dissolve. She felt better, however. So she took the tablet from her mouth, and slipped it in her glove, as she was curious to examine, when she got once more into the light, this tasteless little substance which had given her such relief. When the happy couple were once more outside the opera house the girl stopped under a large lamp. "That thing you gave me made me feel ever so much better," she cooed, gratefully, wrestling with her glove. Suddenly she bent over something white and round In her palm. She looked up at his face. "Dud-dud-Dick!" she stammered, in a choking voice, "why, It's nothing but a pearl shirt button !" Doing His Best "Tommy Tucker is the worst boy in school, Hnrry, and I want you to keep Just as fur away from him as you possibly cnn." "I do, ma. He stays at the head of the class most all the time."

According to the plan, the so-called Kllis card system of regulating salooiiB so as to cut out the bad features of the liquor business, was to be made a prominent factor in the state campaign. Grand Rapit wa* to become s u t e h e a d q u a r t e r s of the wet forces, who, it is said, recognized t h a t Detroit is not suited for the purpose because of its bad saloon record and because state brewers have not been supported by Detroit in local option nght*. To spike the guns of the drys. according to Hudson, it was a r r a n g e d that the demand for t e m p e r a n c e as against total abstinence would be made a campaign cry. Hudson Bays- he learns considerable financial support was solicited for Ellis' local c a m p a i g n from several Grand Rapids saiconhkeepers and that the west side clubs in Grand Rapida were extensively used by wet interests. Leaders of the Michigan Dry Campai& n committee accept Eliis' defeat as indicating an increased no.license sentiment in Grand Rapids.

Baltimore—It was Paul Koenig, skipper of the world's first deep sea diving merchantman, telling the reporters how his Deutschlaad played' her pretty game vt hide and seek with a navy which does not appreciate German humor. "And. we sat down on the floor of the English channel," he chuckled, "because the roof was crowded with nosy destroyers, and we drank good French champagne while we sang 'We've ring* on our fingers and bells on our toee/ and presently the destroyers gave us room on the roof and we came up and went on to America. It was all just as simple as that, I tell you." On the heels of the Deuschland and following in her wake with all the speed that can be coaxed from her powerful boilers, is the coastguard cutter Onondaga( with Collector Norman Hamilton, of Norfolk, aboard. The cutter it is understood, was merely ordered out to keep the strange craft under surveillance as a neutrality precaution. The Deutschland carries, mounted in her conning tower, two small guns, of about three-inch caliber. International law permits merchant ships to carry weapons of such caliber for defensive purposes. No torpedo tubes are visible. According to Captain Freder ick Cocke>a Norfolk pilot and the first American to board the Deutschland, the crew wore regulation uniform of German merchantseaman. No flag was displayed when the Deutschland first appeared off the Capes. Later, when inside the bayp the German merchantman's ensign was raised. Captain Cocke stated that the submarine is more than 300 feet long, 30 feet wide and was drawing 17 feet of water when she entered the Virginia capes. The submersible is propelled by two Deisel engines of 600 horsepower and makes about 15 knots an hour. She is larger than the average freight steamer and makes a speed about three knots in excess of the speed attained by the average freighter. The Deutschlaad is commanded by Captain Wairig and manned by a crew of 29 Germans. She left a German port, the name of which was not disclosed, June 23, according to the story Captain Kairig told Captain Cocke, who was shown through the submersible( told him that the trip acrosB the Atlantic was uneventful.

"The first fires on the twin hearths!" I cried. "In your honor!" The girl smiled into my face, and did not Joke. "That Is very alee," she said. Then she rose and put out her band. "Let me wish Twin Fires always plenty of wood and the happiness which goes with it," We shook hands, while the Are crackled, and already the spot seemed to me like home. Then she looked up at the prints. "Now," she cried, "how is honorable Hlroshlge going to advise you? Here is a blue canal and a lavender sky In the west and bright scarlet temple doors—and all the rest snow. Lavender and bright scarlet la rather a daring color scheme, Isn't it?" "Not If it's the right scarlet" 1 replied. "But it's not the color I'm going to copy. Neither is It the moon bridges in this other temple garden. It's the simplicity. Out here south of this room is my lawn and garden. Now I want It to be a real garden, but I don't want It to dwarf the landscape. I don't want It to look as If I'd bought a half acre of Italy and deposited it in the middle of Massachusetts, either. I've never seen a picture of a real Japanese garden yet that didn't look as much Like a natural Japanese landscape as a garden. I want my garden to be an extension of my south room which will somehow frame the real landscape beyond." We went through the glass door, and I showed her where the grape arbor was to be, at the western side of the lawn, and how a lane of hollybocks would lead to It from the pergola end, screening the kitchen windows and the yet-to-be-built hotbeds. "Now," said I, "I'm going to build a rambler rose trellis along the south; there's your red against the lavender of the far hills at sunset! But how shall the trellis be designed, and where shall the sundial be, and where the flower beds?" The girl clapped her hands. "Oh, the fun of planning it all out from the beginning!" she cried. "My, but I envy you." "Please don't envy; advise," said I. "Oh, I can't I don't know anything about gardens." "But you know what you like! People always say that when they are ignorant don't they?" "Don't be nasty," she replied, running down the plank from the terrace to the lawn, and walking out to the center. "I'd have the snndlaJ right in the middle, where it gets all the sun," she said, "because It seems to me a dial ought to be In the natural focus point of the light Then I'd ring It with flowers, some low, a few fairly tall, all bright colors, or maybe white, and the beds not too regular. Then, right In line with the door, I'd have an arch in the trellis so yon could see through Into the farm. Oh. I know! I'd have the trellis all arches, with a bigger one In the center, and It would look like a Soman aqueduct of roses T "A Roman aqueduct of roses," I repeated, my imagination fired by the picture, "walking across the end of my green lawn, with the farm and the far hills glimpsed beneath! 'Rome's ghost since her decease.' Miss Goodwin, yon are a wonder! But can yon build i t r "No," the sighed, MI can onty give yon the derivation of 'aqueduct* and 'rose/ " "Come,'* said U V i will consult Bard Cider." " H e a v e n s r she Laughed. "Is that anything like-Dutch courate r B a r d granted, and name with on to the line of slakes where the rote treltts was to be. I sketched reoghly the Idea I wanted—* reproduction in simple trellis work, ae it were, of High bridge, New Yet* Hard pondered a moment, and then departed for the shed, returning with several pieces of trellis lumber, a spade, some tools, a small roll of chicken wire and a step ladder, all on a wheelbarrow. At his direction, I dug a post hole and soon had the first arch of my aqueduct. "And now," I said to the girl at my side, "shall we see if we can build the next arch?" Again she clapped her hands delightedly, and ran with me around the house for the tools and lumber. I let her dig the first post hole, though It was evident that the effort tired her, and then I took the spade away, while she marked off the trellis strips Into the proper lengths and sawed them up, placing each strip across the wheelbarrow and holding it in place first with a hand which looked quite inadequate even for that small task, and, when the hand failed, with her foot. She laughed as she put her foot on the wheelbarrow, hitching her skirt up where it bound her knee. "The new skirts weren't made for carpenters," she said, as she jabbed away with the saw. I darted a glance at the display of trim ankles, and resumed my digging In the post holes. This was a new and disturbing distraction In agricultural toil! The post holes were soon dug, and while I held the posts, she adjusted the level against them, our hands and faces close together, and we both kicked the dirt in with our feet Then I climbed on the stepladder and leveled the top piece, which I nailed down. Then, while I was catting a semicircle ont of the wire, for the arch, she nailed the trellis strips across the piers, grasping the hammer halfway up to the head, and frowning earnestly as Bhe tapped with little, short Jablike blows. She was so Intent on this task that I laughed aloud. "What are you laughing at?" said she. "You," said I. "You drive a nail as if it were an abstruse problem In differential calculus." "It is, for me," she answered, quite soberly. "I don't suppose I've driven a dozen nails in my life—only tacks In the plaster to hang pictures on. And It's very Important to drive them right because this is a rose trellis." "When I first came here," said I, "I was pretty clumsy with my hands, too, I'd lost my technique, as you might say, I remember one afternoon when I was trimming the orchard that I didn't think a single thought beyond the Immediate problem each branch presented. And yet it was immensely stimulating. Personally. I believe that the educational value of manual dexterity has only begun to be appreciated." Miss Goodwin marked off the place for the next strip, and started nailing. At the last blow she relaxed her frown. "Maybe," she said. "No, probably. But the manual work, it seems to me, has got to be connected up in some way with—well, with higher things. I can't think of a word for i t because my head Is so full of the 'by' groap. Yoo, for Instance, were sawing your own orchard, and you were working for better fruit aod more beautiful RICHES TO BE DEVELOPED Beds of 8hale In Western States Will Yet Bs Made to Yield Millions of Dollars. Little attention has been paid to shale in this country because the quantity of petroleum produced from wells In the Cnited States has been sufficient to satisfy all demands, but for more than fifty years the oil shale Industry of Scotland has been a very important one. In a recent year more than 8,000 men were employed In the Industry In that country, yet the average yield of oil per ton of shale was much less than that which appears 'possible from the shale of Colorado and Utah. It Is estimated that In Colorado alone there is sufficient shale, In beds three feet or more thick and richer than the shale being mined In Scotland, to yield twenty billion barrels of crude oil from which at least two billion barrels- of gasoline may be extracted by ordinary refining processes. This shale contains materials which, when heated, may Be urntrees, and a lovely home. Too saw the work la its higher relations, tta relations to the beauty of living." "And your nail*?" I aaked. "J see the aqueduct of roses," she smiled. "You will see them, 1 trust," said L "You shall see them. You moat atay till they bloom." Her brow suddenly clouded, and she shook her head. "I—I shall have to go back to the T s / " ahe said. "But I shall kuow the roses are here. You must send me a picture of them." Somehow I was less enthusiastic over the next arch, but her spirits aoou came buck, and she sawed the next batch of stripping with greater precision and skill In the use of the saw— and a more reckless show of stocking. "See!" she cried, "how much I'm improving! 1 didn't splinter any of the ends this time!" "Flue," said 1. "You can tackle the firewood in the orchard soon!" •' Hooray!" cried the girl, as the fourth was finished. "How we are getting ou!" "I could uever have done It alone," said I. "You have really been a great help." "Ofi. 1 hope so!" she excluimed. "I haven't had so much fun In years." We looked into the vegetable garden, and saw that Mike had gone, and j Joe. too.

Made for proachlng six. Hot and pleasantlytired, we packed up the tools on the barrow, and wheeled them to the shed. "Now shall we go and hear the hermit?" I asked. She nodded, and we went down through the orchard, past the pool where the Iris buds were already showing a spike of greenish white, through the maples, and Into the pines. There we stood, side by side, in the quiet hush of coming sunset and waited for the fairy horn. A song sparrow was singing out by the road, and the thin, sweet flutlngs of a Peabody came from the pasture. But the thrush was silent "Please sing, Mr. Thrush!" she pleaded, looking at me after she spoke, with a wistful little smile of apology for her foolishness. "I want so to hear him again," she said. "We don't hear thrushes in New York, nor wmell pine trees, nor feel this sweet cool silence. Oh, the good pines!" Just how far will this state of affairs go before Bachelor John forgets himself, takes Stalls in his Srms, gives her a cave* man hug snd kiss snd rushes her off to the parson to have the knot tied tight? Western < "aruuia is tin hind hungry man u h<» > a good Jmng from the Up money i< > take rare o! age without paying a the prl\ ilege. Western Canada. is the great wheat producing section of the North American continent, with uu average production of more than 30 bushels to the acre as compared with uu average of 17 bushels to the acre in the States. Wheat raising can hardly be made profitable un land that costs from $50 an acre up unless such land will produce a much higher than a 17 bushel average, or unless the price of the cereal reaches an excessive figure. The initial investment of !>..»u an acre is more than the average man can afford to make if he expects to raise wheat am! to make u success of it. ! A good homestead of 100 acres can • stiil he secured free in Western Canada and additional land admirably ! suited to the raisins-of wheat-can be secured at so low a cost per acre that ' it can he made extremely prolital.de. I No other part of the world offers such tremendous opportunities at the present time to the ambitious young farmer as the three great provinces of Western ("anada. It is worth the while of the landhungry man to cease his depressing search for local cheap laud or for land that is not entirely worked out by long cropping and to look outside his own districl. Western Canada Is a country that should receive the consideration of all such men. The Western Provinces of Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta are essentially agricultural territory. Out of 478 million acres there are 180 million acres of first -class agricultural land actually available for development— a block three and a half times as large as the total laud area of Minnesota, and equal to the combined land areas of Minnesota, Iowa, Wisconsin, Illinois and Indiana. But whereas the population of the five states mentioned is fifteen mllliou people, the population of Western Canada is only about one and threequarter millions. It lias been said that the average yield per acre of wheat in the United States last year was 17 bushels. This average does not, of course, represent the efficiency which may have been reached by individual farmers or by individual states. However, place aguinst this figure the fact that the' 191," Western Canadian average—the average from nearly twelve million acres—was over 30 bushels, In the case of the Province of Alberta, the average reached 32.84 bushels per acre. There are already a large number of American fanners in Western Canada, so that the newcomer could never— overlooking the fact that the same language is spoken—feel himself in an alien country. There seems, In fact, a tendency to establish little colonies composed of those coining from the same sections. The characteristics of the country, and the climate and season, are very much the same as in Minnesota or North Dakota. Social conditions bear a family resemblance. Education Is free, and is good; Its cost being defrayed partly by taxation, partly by grants from the Canadian Government, from the sales of school lands, of which, when the country was first surveyed, two sections in every township were allocated. Taxation in every rural district, in many towns and cities, Is based practically on land values alone, Improvements of all kinds being exempted.—Advertisement USI (TO BE CONTINUED.) verted into crude oil, gas and ammonia. The high cost of distilling oil from shale as compared to the cost of producing oil from wells has thus far prevented the development in this country of such an Industry and may continue to prevent It for some time, but In due time this great source of suppry will be utilized to supplement the decreasing production from the regular oil fields. The gas, which is a very good illuminating gas, will perhaps be sufficient to furnish all the heat required to distill the crude oil from the shale. Ammonia, a most valuable by-product of the distillation, may be utilized in the manufacture of commercial fertiliser or other nitrogen compounds, as the market demands. An Honest Confession.

"No doubt he was a good husband* and you are to be pitied, but why are you fanning his grave?"

Mere plants in the window garden are killed every year by over-watering than in any other way. Some persons labor under the delusion that water must be applied daily, and the consequence Is their plants are literally drowned out, unless they happen to have the best drainage. OtherB go on the ' little-and-often" plan—that is, they apply water In small quantities whenever they happen to think of it. The result is the surface of the soil U kept moist and from this the owner takes it for granted that the soil beneath must be properly damp. Nine times out of ten examination will ahow that an inch or two below the surface the soil 1s dry. Of course pie roots of the plants cannot do their work under such conditions. The plant jsoon sickens and eventually dies and ^he owner wonders what caused the trouble. Now, In watering plants several Jhings have to be considered. First, the nature of the plant. Some like a good deal of water, others only a moderate amount. Second, the soil. A close, loamy soil £ries out slowly, therefore it will not require as frequent or as large applications as a light porous soil from Which moisture evaporates rapidly. Third, location and exposure must be taken into consideration. Plants in the sun or a very warm place, will peed a good deal more water than those in full or partial shade or a low temperature. Fourth, the size of the pot must be Reckoned with. The BOII in a large pot will not dry out for two or three days, but the soil in a small pot will become JQUite dry every day. Fifth, a dormant plant requires but little water. It is not In a condition to make use of much water and an oversupply of it will surely result In harm. When the plant begins to grow then increase the quantity and proportion this to the development made. All these things must receive due consideration by the amateur who would know how-to care for his or her plants Intelligently. ' Study them. Experiment with them. In this way you soon become familiar with the individuality of each one and you will be able to give to each the care it needs. We are often asked for some rules for watering plants. It is Impossible to make any rule that can be followed strictly. The only rule I have ever been able to give is this: When the surface of the soil looks dry, water. Use enough to thoroughly saturate all the soil in the pot. You can tell about this by the escape of some at the bottom of the pot. Then wait until the dry look appears on the surface again and apply water as before. But, as I have said, one will have to modify this rule to fit the conditions. It is a general rule, subject to such change as may appear necessary to the intelligent plant grower, who does not believe in treating all the plants exactly alike. Give fertilizers to growing plants only. A plant standing still needs none and will be injured by the applications of the food it is not in condition to make use of. PLAN FOR BEAUTY Plan for beauty, then work unceasingly for the plan. Have grass and shrubbery in the back, rather than rubbish. Hardy azaleas are amonrr our most brilliant, hardy shrubs. All the spireas, herbaceous or shrub, are beautiful and hardy. Let your kitchen window be a picture frame. Let the picture frame be green things growing. Let the green things be something beside burdock, Jimpson weeds or cockle burs. Plant to screen the ugly views from the back door. Vines will do it. Get a root of the trumpet-creeper from the woods and plant it in the back yard. Set a strong stake beside it, and keep the vine cut back until the "shrub" habit Is formed. It is beautiful. The trumpet-creeper will not spread unless you cut its roots. When you do you won't have to import any more. ^ 3 0 ^ - > ' " j V ' All t*e Spirt**, Herbaceous and Strut, Art Beautiful and Hardy. (Prepared by the I'nlU"} States Department, of Agriculture.) The production of thymol fro a horsemint may be, under favorable circumstances, a profitable comnn rcial undertaking, according to a recent publication of the United States department of agriculture, Bulletin 372. Thymol, which Is extensively used in medicine, was formerly imported from northern Europe where it is manufactured from seed grov\ n in northern India. The European war, however, has reduced the importations of this substance from 18,(H0 pounds In 1914 to a little more thiin 2,000 in 1915. To make up this deficit It is believed that thymol might be manufactured from improved horsemint plants with which the department of agriculture has been experimenting for some time. Horsemint Is found wild on light sandy soils over the entire regicn from southern New York to Florida, and westward to Wisconsin, Kansas and Texas, and It Is probable that It will thrive under cultivation over the same area. From 20 to 30 pounds of oil per acre should be obtained from a planting, according to the investigations of the department, and a little less than 70 per cent of this oil will be thymol. The yield of thymol per acre of horsemint, therefore, is estimated at from a little less than 13 pounds from first year plantings to a little less than 20 pounds for subsequent years. The average price of thymol for a number of years prior to the European war was about $2 a pound. The cost of producing the thymol will depend to a great measure upon whether the horsemint Is grown in connection with other oll-yleldlng plants for which a distilling apparatus Is maintained. Unless this Is done, It Is said, It Is not probable that the profits will be sufficient to warrant anyone engaging in the industry. Excluding such Items as land rent, taxes, depreciation, upkeep and interest on the distilling plant. It Is estimated that thymol can he produced nt nn approximate cost of $23 per acre the first year, and $19 per acre thereafter. These figures Include the growing of the plants, fertilization, cultivation, harvesting and distilling. A plantation of horsemint will not have to be replanted oftener than once In five years at the most, and by returning the distilled herb to the soil, a material reduction in cost of fertilization can be made after the first year. Fuller Information In regard to ALFALFA AND WHITE GRUBS methods of cultivation, harvesting and distilling are contained in Bulletin 372 which has already been mentioned.

LONG L!FE OF FENCE POSTS Osage Orange Leads With Thirty ' Years—Cement Will Last Forty- | eight Years, The average life of fence posts ' from the following kinds of woods is: Osage orange, 30 years; locust, 23% ; j red cedar, 20½ ; mulberry, 17½ ; ca- j talpa, 15½ ; burr oak, 15 1-3; chestnut, I 14%; white cedar, 14 1-3; walnut,! 11½ ; white oak, 11½ ; pine, 11¼ ; tamarack, 10½ ; cherry, 10 1-3; hemlock, 9; sassafras, 8.9; elm, 8%; ash, 8½ ; red oak, 7; willow, 6¼. The number of years that a fence post will last should be considered In the price paid for It. Oftentimes for a few cents ad- \ ditlonal a much longer-lived post can be secured, making It much cheaper ! in the long run. j If the bark is left on a fence post, It will rot much faster than if it ts removed. i It is estimated that the average life ] of a cement post Is 48 years and of a steel post 30 years, l The Soap to cleanse and purify, the Ointment to soothe and heal.

"A Sunday golfer," he said, "rang the bell at a manse Sunday morning and asked to leave her golf sticks there during the service. " 'I can't hardly let you do that,' said trie minister. " 'But,' the Sunday golfer objected, 'you've got a sign on the church porch to the effect that bicyclists can leave their machines at the manse during service, haven't you?' " 'Yes, ma'am, I have,' the minister answered. 'You can ride to church on a bicycle, you know; but you can't on a golf stick—unless you happen to be a witch."' ENEMIES OF ALFALFA PLANT Not Worth While for Farmer to Waste Expensive Seed on Sour or Alkaline Soils, Sour soil and alkali are enemies of alfalfa. Most sour soils are sandy soils where the drainage is too good and the lime has been leached out They can be sweetened by adding ground limestone where this process is not too expensive and leaching lessened by Incorporating plenty of humus In the soil. This can be done by applying stable manure or plowfng under green manure In the form of grow- J ing crops, etc. j Alkali soils usually are badly drained i and can be corrected by supplying this ; factor. It is not worth while to waste alfalfa seed on sour or alkaline soils. If they cannot be corrected, raise some i other crop. J Trying Ordeal. "Speaking of hopes deferred and blighted ambition, there's Mr. Scrubly of our town." "What about him?" "He's been primed with an Interview on the Mexican situation for the past six weeks and hasn't been able to break into print yet." Small Brother's Criticism. "I heard hlra call you 'Duckle,' '* announced the small brother. "Well, what of It?" demanded his sister, defiantly. "Oh, nothln' much," answered the small brother. "I was only thinkln' maybe it's because of the way you walk, but It ain't very nice of htm." Excellent Crop to Alternate With Com, as It Clears Soil of Aphis and Other Insects. It is calmed that the corn-root aphis, white grubs and other insects which caused so much damage to the corn, will not feed upon alfalfa roots. For this reason alfalfa Is considered a very excellent crop to alternate with corn, as It clears the land of corn enemies. PUTTING EGGS IN INCUBATOR When Machine Has Been Started It Is Unwise to Add New Supply Without First Warming. When eggs have been pat in an Incubator and have been incubated for several day* (or even one or two days) It Is unwise to put In more eggs* because the new lot will chill the tirst lot, nnleas the new lot tt first warmed up to Incubating temperature In another machine In any event, It la not a practical operation. Vermin Multiply in Summer. During the summer when the weather Is warm all kinds of poultry lice, as well as little mites, multiply rapidly and unless fought vigorously will torment the fowls and chicks and make profit Impossible. UNIFORMITY OF MUCH VALUE Cartons Are Made Attractive When Filled With Eggs of tome Size and Color. Uniformity In size and color of eggs is valuable in all markets, but Is most Important where the producer caters to a special trade. Cartons are much more attractive when filled with eggs of one color than when white and brown eggs are used. Small eggs had better be used at home. Avoid Mixing Breeds.

Next week, clothes will probably be at their minimum prices for the seasun. In the shops and at the dressmaking places, clothes will be offered at what is called "below cost." At these sales a wholesale clearance of everything is made by the commercialists, as they do not care to carry stock any longer through the season., and because the prices are tempting and t h e clothes suit the fashions of the hour, t h e r e are hundreds of women who t a k e a d v a n t a g e of these b a r g a i n s und buy costumes t h a t they think will give them good service when the first •st comes. The- process of buying good clothes at reduced r a t e s at this season is one that appeals to the economist, and on the surface it seems an efficient way to dispose of money, but in t r u t h . It is one of the most hazardous experiments. It Is one of those instances in which a majority does w h a t only a small minority Is capable of doing. A woman who does not keep herself well advised concerning the changes in clothes runs every chance of putting Into her w a r d r o b e that which should never be taken out. The latest thing in J u n e is apt to be the oldest thing in October. The cloth suit that looks admirable in the shop and which Is g u a r a n t e e d by the persuasive seller AS France's latest production may not give service more than three times during the hot weather, and, when one gleefully takes It from the closet in October with that virtuous feeling of forehandedness, it will present such a pitiable contrast to the new clothes that It can never be worn.

Those who first frowned on them now admire them and say t h a t they ore not only sensible but becoming a s well as economical. With a short dress a woman has some liberty. She has her hands for free use. She may look round about her without the fear that while she Is doing It somebody »111 put a fool through her two-dollnr-n-ynrd Ince and t r a m p off a couple of yards of It. She may get out of H street car without looking back to see if she is clear behind and safe from being dragged along and perhaps maimed for life. She can defy mln nnd mud. She doesn't hnve to go round a wisp of atraw lest she t a k e tt up on her fringes.

It is very rare that savages give Dames to extensive lands as a whole. and at first sight this seems surprising. Yet when we reflect that the average savage rarely travels more than 100 miles from his birthplace it is quite natural he should know nothing beyond his personal knowledge. If savages live on a very large island they are acquainted with only a small part of it and give names only to those portions with which they are familiar. The largest Islands of the Pacific have no native names. No name for the continent of Africa is known among its savage tribes. When told that they lire in Africa a common response is that they never heard of such a country. As a rule, Pacific explorers were careful to retain native names if theycouW ascertain them.

The exact rotation that is followed u the«e farm clubs is, of course, deter mined by Individual conditions. l i some sections the acre should be sowc to a cover crop for grazing and furring under in the spring. After this treat ment cowpeas, soy beans or peanut? may be sown and prizes^given tor tht greatest yield. Else where rye and crimson clover, rye and bur clover or vetch nnd oat*: may be sown together. For the smaller boys in tbe first years of their membership in the clubs one acre is probably enough to handle The corn they require to feed their liv« stock may l>e obtained in exchange foi small grain, hay, cowpeas, clover seed or some of the other products of tneii acre, or else the nverage boy by helping his father on a farm may receive sufficient teed of corn In return for his labor. Older boys saay. of course, find two acres none toe much, puling one acre in corn and the other lu small grain and lesrumes. In order to stimulate Interest the authorities in charge of this demonstration work are recommending that prizes be offered for legumes and for the small grain grown by the club members as well as for corn. If « boy uses his grain crop for grazing or tornlnc under he can compete for prizes on such crops as peanuts, l^eans, pess and lespedezn.
