Two weeks ago The Record ta r­ ried an article with this heading, -The article related to a canvas ; covered chest, then in the hands of Attorney Hugh A. McCauley, of ..Charlotte, N. C., and which had been in the McCauley family for more than 5 0 years, being entrust­ ed to the keeping of the . grand father of the present -possessor in the 60's by M. N. Tyler, of Pen­ nsylvania.

McCauley and daughter Edna, P. C. W hit­ lock, trust officer, John Fox, as sistant trust officer and clerk of .the Mecklenburg court Yankle. A great deal ofJbpecuIation was indulged in before the opening, as to tvliat the package might contain but most assuredly none of the guesses were corre t. ; The following articles were • re- i vealed m the opening: ..- Two large account books, a sm all ledger, and several packets of bills and receipts. And inspection of the account books revealed the information that it was not an uncommon tl i ig fo a man to purchase a pint of whisk­ ey a day as a regular habit,, and then about once every few weeks t) have a big “blowout” and buy a few gallons of the now forbidden fluid, or a whole barrel of brandied peaches; Au account entered in 1867 shows that a pint of whiskey' in those days cost but 35 cent, instead of the present day bootlegger’s fee of $3 - " A whole barrel 0 f brandied [peaches were sold for $6.40.

Of Interest To Farmers The outstanding now addition to North Carolina’s agricultural pro­ gress is the- aLnual farm consus. Althpugh Begun on a voluntary basis only.five years ago, it afford­ ed 70 per cent degree of complete- ness results last year and better is expected this year; The skepticism at first, by farm­ ers and others interested, has given way to strong endorsement by County Commissioners, Co-opera­ tive Marketing, Farm. Bureaus, Extension (Service, bankers and progiessive farmers. The volun­ tary overywhelmiug results was re­ sponsible for the law being passed requiring this through the tax listers. Those in charge ,of this, both, lo­ cally and . in the Department of Agriculture claim that the present difficulty is on’, the part of the farmers themselves.' Although. We own one-or more farms, the tax listers^fiud • that our confidential knowledge of this non-taxable farm work is sadly lacking. It is definitely proven in all com­ mercial iudestries that failure would be certain if planned'as the farmers do their plantings. Only an inven­ tory, or audit can show what we are doing;.. The best sellers and losses may be found, especially if records of-sales and purchases are maintained. Mr.-W. K.

These facts are that Ford-wants the Muscle Shoals power project for a small fraction of its cost and -its value; that he does not want it primarily as a fertilizer producing plant nor does he agree to turn out fertilizer unless he .can do it at a profit: that there is no reason to bey lieve that Ford’s ' acquisition ' of Muscle Shoajs would reduce the price of fertilizer to the farmer, ex­ cept perhaps, in. the immediate-: vicinity of the Muscle Shoals plant; that the goveuiment is bound; under the proposed contract .; to spend many millions finishing the plant for Ford and that it must for years keep certain portion of the plant in repair at an indefinite maintenance c JSt. . The Ford organization has a powerful lobby and a huge corps of press agents From that, quarter comes all sorts of talks about hu^e industrial cities, electric power -to be given away, fertilizer to be sold for next to nothing, solution-of the- transportation problem and cur­ rency question and other topics wyhich will’ serve as means of play­ ing upon the credulity of the peo­ ple.

Sandy's IeaD face was anxious. The girl drooped in her seat, tired from the long climb, not jet inured to the saddle. Sandy had only Oncft1 crossed the Pass of tlie Goats and that was years before. There had been washouts since then. Sevetal times they were forced to dismount and lead the nerv- Oiis beasts, Sandy doing the coaxing, lrelping Molly over the difficult places. He rode a mate named Goldie and the girl a bay with a white blaze that .Sand.v had chosen for the mountain work and which had been brought to them at the lava strip. Tlie iimve halted, neck stretched out, tinning it to look inquiringly at her master. A Sha1Tp incline lay ahead, the path little better than one made Sy the goats for which the pass was Mined Behind, Molly’s mount fol­ lowed suit, blowing at the dust. Sandy patted the mare’s neck and dis­ mounted. “Vo're sure game, Molly,” he said admiringly; “you must be clean tuck­ered out.” She shook her head with an attempt j at a smile. . “I’ll be glad when we stt»rt»'goin’ ’ I d0! n’ fer a change,” she' admitted, I lining into the gloomy .trough of the \ (‘a,|.von through which the night wind ■ - soughed, ,. . • ■5qlc, ['1 tiShten uP yore cinches,” said ’ i ”aHv- “Worst of the climb’s jest S ahead.

The wetness To her right was the cliff, slimy ^ Z the 41811 so narrow thatOW a iu lthen her elbow dug Into the stqff. The light rayed upward at -an acute angle. In a few moments it would be dark; But they were close to the top. The mare already stood on a level ledge of side-jutting rock, from which one could look down into the'canyon of the oaks and the unfailing stream. Sandy heard a cry from Molly and saw, through the curtain of the fall­ ing rain; the wide-flared nostrils of her horse, its eyes protruding as the brute, with the ground slopping away beneath him, slid slowly down toward the gulf, the girl, her weight flung for­ ward on the withers, her face .white as paper, turning to him mutely for help. It was a bad moment. Sandy had no space to turn in, no chance to whirl his lariat, even for a side throw.. There was no time to spin a loop. But his hand detached the rope, flying fingers found tlie free end as he pivoted in the^saddle, thighs weld­ed to the mare. "Take a turn about the horn!” he shouted. “Hang to the end yo’se’f!” He sent the line jerking back, whis­ tling as it streaked across the girl’s shoulders. ,She clutched for’ It, with plenty of slack, snubbed it about the. saddle horn, clung to the end, made a bight of It about her body. Sandy spoke to the mare. “Steady, lt’l lady, steady!” The rope* was about his own horn; he thanked God that he had examined the cinches of Molly’s saddle. The bay Wasl Catfootedj iwith the help of the mare Sandy believed he could dig and scrape: arid climb to safety. He felt Goldie stiffen beneath him, braced against the strain she knew was coming. The taut lariat hummed, it bruised into, Sandy's thigh., Behind, the bay snctrted, struggling gallantly. They were poised on the brink of death for a moment, two—three—and then the mare began to move, slowly forward,1 neek curved, ears cocked to •her ■ master’s, urging, ■ while , the bay sloshed through the treacherous muck, foynd foothold, lost it, made a frantic leap, -Iinother, and landed trembling on the ledge. Sandy leaped, from his saddle and caught Molly, sliding from her seat in sheer exhaustion end the revulsion of terror, clinging closely to him. “I’m all right,” she said. “I was scared an’ yet I knew you’d pull me •out. I’m plumb shamed of myself. Jest like a d—d gel to act that way.” “Shucks! Tou wasn’t half as scared as the bay. Wonder did he strain himself?”. He passed clever hands over the bay’s legs, talking to It * “Yo’re all right, oj’ surelegs. Right as rain.” Sandy recoiled his lariat, gave Molly a hand to her foot to lift her to . her saddle, mounted himself, and they rode slowly down. The tur­ moil of running waters far below bur­ dened the night, but the danger from’ the storm was over. Train time was long past. Sandy knew nothing of ,the change of sched­ ule, but he was confident of. winning clear. He knew a man in the. little- town they were aiming for whose llv* Wld sapped Molly’s vitality.\\ifh hnniln ' xi. . * .<ith hands on the saddleJei head bowed, water stream-S from 4-v . wtuer stream- u<] l)( Jh ® rlm °? her.

There he expected to put up the horses until they could be re­ turned to Three Star, and there he ‘figured on hiring a car'and a driver if, as he anticipated, there were no more trains that night. He believed that Mormon and Sam had delayed the sheriff. Probably the latter had given up the chase, but there was no telling. They should lose no time In getting out .of'the state? CHAPTER IX . ",Caroca.,;' ' Sandy led^the ,way on the mare to, a shelving bench, a place where he had camped once long before and, with his out-of-doors-man’s craft,-- never forgotten. Molly was tired al-. most to insensibility as to what might be going on, soaked and chilled to limpness. Sandy got her out of the saddle and into a/ shallow cave In a sandy bank: The next thing she knew a‘ Are was leaping and sending light and warmth into her nook. “Eat this, Molly, an’ we got to be on our way.” Sandy was handing- her a cupftii of 'hot, savory stew, made for the trip, warmed up hastily, the best kind of a meal after their, stren­ uous experience, thotgh -Sandy be­ moaned its' quality. “Figgered you an’ me ’ud eat on the Pullman temight,” he said. “But this snack’ll do us no harm. .We’ll git a cup of . coffee In. Oaroca if there’s a chance,” She gulped the reviving food grate­ fully, strength coming back with-the fuel that gave both wannth and mo­ tive power. Soon they were jogging on ,down the wide trough of thfe. can­ yon. They crossed a white rpad, un­ fenced but evidently a main source of travel though now deserted. “County line runs plu?ub down the middle of the road,” announced Sandy. “There’s the lights of Caroca blinkin’ away to the left. Too bad we missed the train. Sleepy?’ “Some,” she admitted. ' • “Me, too,” lied Sandy companlon- ably. . '•* * Coming down from the mesa he had talked with her about Barbara Bed­ ding, how welcome she would make Molly and what she'would do for her. Molly had listened silently. They entered the little toi^n, once a cattle station, now, renamed In mu­ sical Spanish, Car-oea—A Caressr^a spot where. fruits were grown and flowers bloomed the year round wher­ ever the water caressed the earth. Sandy rode tie mare into the livery wherje the.'last skirmish between hoof and rlm, iron and, rubber tire, was being fought, and called for “Chock” Goodwin. ■ A stout man came out, not so heavy, not so big as Mormon,'but sheathed in flesh with the, armor of ease and good living. He peered up at Sandy, then let out a shout. “You long-legged, ornery, freckle­ faced, gun-packin’ galoot, . Sandy Bourke! Light off ’£ that cayuse. you an’ yore lady friend. Where in time did you-all drop from?”' . “Come across the mesa. Like to git washed across through Paso Cabras,” 'said Sandy. “Miss Casey, Tet me make you ’quainted with Chuck Goodwin, one time ,the best hawss- shoer In tlie seven Cactus states, now sellin’ oil an’ gasoline at fancy prices, not- to mention machines fo’ which he is agent.” • “Got a few. oats left fo’ yore hawsses, Sandy. Miss, won’t you come inside the office? Where you bound, Sandy?” “We was aimin’, to catch the seven o’clock train east, makin’ fo’ New. Mexico an’ the Redding ranch, where Miss Casey is to visit fo’ a spell, but we found the trail-bad an’ a cloud- bu’st finally set us back so . we quit hurryin’ an\ loafed In. Chilck1 have you got a machine you c’ud-rent us, with a, driver?” "You can Wve anything I got Inthe place with lalgs or wheels, an’ wel­ come. Goin’ ^to. the old Bedding ranch? Give my howdedo to Miss' Barbara, or Mrs. Barbara as she is. now. But—” He looked at the wall clock, “It’s a quarter of ten. Tore train’s' been altered to suit main line schedules*. She don't come through till- nine-thirty an’ she’s gen’ally late makln’ the grade. I ain’t heard her whistle yet. Hop in my car an’ we’ll jest about make her. She don’t do much more’n hesitate at Caroca when she’s behind time.” He hurried them out on the street to where a car stood by the curb. Molly and her few belongings' got Jn behind, Sandy mounted with Goodwin. “You’ll take good care of the hawsses, Chuck?” he. said. “I’ll prob­ ably be, back fot ’em m^se’f in three- fo’ days.” s , “Seguro.” Goodwin, stepped, on his -starter and the flywheel whirred* to sputtering explosions. Anpther car came limping down the street,' flat on both rims of one side, .its paint plas-' tered w}th mud, one light out,, the other dimmed with mire. vjThe driver called to Goodwin. , “Which way to the depot?” Goodwin, his hand on the lever, foot on the clutch, ,was astounded to hear Sandy hissing out: ; “Don’t tell ’em. ,Scoot ahead full speed.” - Then, over his shoulder to the girl, “Crouch down there, Molly." Goodwin was still a' man of action and he knew Sandy Bourke of old:' Out came the pedal, the gears engaged and the car shot ahead) beneath a swinging arc light. Sajidy’s hat-rlm did not sufficiently shade his faee or Molly’s action had not been swift enough; There came a yell and a string of curses from the crippled car, which backed "and turned and fol­ lowed, Its tom treads, flapping. Goodwin asked no questions of Sandy.^ if the latter wanted ever to tell him why he required a quick exit out of Caroca. or wh?' he . Was fol­ lowed, he could. If not, never mlad. He slid his gears into high and dodged around comers recklessly. A red lan­ tern showed ahead In the middle of the road. They crashed through a light obstruction 'of boards and tres-’ ties, overturning the lantern, and plowed on over rough stones. “I’m mayor,” said Goodwin wifti a grin. “Breakln* my own rules but I Agger that broken stone’ll'bother ’em . some. We’ll chance It.” ' They lunged through, regardless of tires, and, behind them, the pursuing car rattled, lurched, skidded.A tire blew out and as Goodwin swung a comef with two wheels In the air the sheriff’s machine smashed viciously across, the sidewalk, poking its crump­ ling radiator into a cottonwood. “Brazen bulls!” shouted Goodwin, “There she-blows! You got to tun." The depot' was ahead, to one side of the road-crossing. The train, its clanging bell slowing for the stop, ground to a halt, the conductor swing' CONDENSED NEWS FROM TBE OLD NORTHSfATE SHORT NOTES.

He waved “ahead” ds Sandy and Molly raced up and clam­ bered to 'the platform from which the trainman hsfd dropped off. Now the-latter remounted while’ the train restarted, gathered speed.. e “Where to?” he asked Sandy, sur­ veying the pair of them curiously, “Got reservations?” “Bound for Boville, New Mexico. On the El Paso and Southwestern. What’s tlie charges? No reservations, but we rode fifty mile’ across the mesa to make the train.” Sandy produced his roll and at the* same time he grinned In the light of the conductor’s lantern. And Sandy’s smile was worth much more than or­ dinary currency. It-stamped him bona fide, certified his character. The con* ductor’s profession made him apt at such indorsements. “We take you to Phoenix," he said. “Change there for El Paso. I can give y<iu a spare upper for the lady.” Molly, all eyes, tired though they were, was staling-at the Pullman Afro-American,, flashing, eyes^ and teeth and buttons at her and even more at Sandy. “Fine!” said Sandy. “Smoker’s good-enough fo’ me. He’s got a bed for you, Molly. See you In the morn« ing.” He waited, countenancing her while she'climbed the short ladder to the already curtailed berth. Molly’s sys­ tem might be aquiver with wonder'but she never showed loss of wits or poise. She might have traveled so a hundred times. Back of the curtain she curled up half-undressed but, even as Sandy registered to , himself with a . low chuckle: “She never turned a hair or shied.” “Gold!" He' cfaed. "T1HeyVe struck pay dirt at Dynamite!" (TO BB CONTINUED.) Follow Line-of Vegetation, The great nomad tribes of western Asia, to whom we give.the generic term of Bedouin, spend the winter months', in central Arabia, which is their'homestead; but. as spring ap­ proaches they start slowly northward with their women folk and their tents, tfieir camels, horses and sheep, fol­ lowing the receding line of vegetation until summer finds them in the Kurd­ ish foothills. With autumn the south­ ward trek .begins, so that, by keep­ ing almost constantly on the move, they are able -to provide their beasts vwlth pasturage the year round.

Were Forced to Conceal Truth About King -Benjamin's Holy Rites in Michigan Sect. Grand Rapids, Mich.—The Isralite House ot David has been found -by United District Judge John E. Safer of Columbus, Ohio, to be the gigantic fraud alleged by John W. Hansel and his family of Nashville, Tenn., who spent eight years in the Benton Har­ bor colony. Based on his findings, Judge Sater gave to the plaintiffs a verdict which will amount to upward of ,$15,000 as compensation for their services from • May. 1912, until Dec. 20, 1920, when they alleged they were expelled. They had sued for $80,000. d The court decision; filed here, de­ clares Benjamin Purnell, head of the colony, "has deliberately and system­ atically taught utterance of falsehoods and the commission of . perjury.” Benjamin, also, he finds, has so taught his religious creed as to cause some of the female members of the colony to submit to improper relations with him as a roly rite. The colony, despite its “low moral tone, fornication, adultery, attempted rape, if not rape, and petty theft” has gone unpunished and in almost all cases unreuked ’ Judge Sater said. "In political matters, the members of the colony -vote solidly for the per­ sons designated by Benjamin,” states the decision. . Benjamin, it is. declared, has, in his writings, made statements of no other rational interpretation than that if an investigation of the colony be had, its members should answer untruthfully. The evidence, it is pointed out, dis­ closes that on other occasions Benja­ min avoided and sought to stiffle in­ vestigations "concerning benjamin and the girls.” The court ponders as to the reasons of “Queen” Mary, wife of Benjamin, for failure to take the witness stand at the Hansel trial, despite "evidence which cast a doubt, at least, on her virtue,” In an attempt “to vindicate .her honor or to shed light on transac­ tions In which she was said actively to have participated.” Convict Brutalities to Be Aired. Tallahassee, Fla.—Additional ■ re­ ported convict brutalities will be air­ ed this week by the joint legislative committee investigating State and county prison camps. State Senator T. J.

C., who is alleged to have received bruital treatment while serving a sentence in- the Knabb camp, telegrapfTed the committee that his client would be unable to leave his home in Washington to ap­ pear before the eomtpittee. An affi" davit made by white together with the records of. the Department of Ag­ riculture relative to his case will be introduced in his behalf. • ^hite ,a 19-year- old youth, was ar- _ rested while walking on .the highway, ‘ near White Springs, Fla., it is alleged, and after being arraigned in a justice of peace court, was sentenced to six months’ imprisonment in the Alachua county jail. x He was charged with vagrancy. He was later leased to State Senator Knabb, who operated a turpentine camp near Macclenny.

FBMER PUGILIST KSISTS A Hundred Women and Children Pass­ ed Down Rusty Fire Escape to „ Safety. LARGER TAX OR CiGAREnES GOVERNMENT COLLECTS THIS MUCH DURING MONTH OF MARCH. Figures indicate Healthiest National Business State, Says Treasury Officials. Washington.—An upward trend of general business, in the opinion of treasury officials, is shown definitely in detailed statistics on gross federal tax collections for March, which place the total for the month at $533,542,000. While some specific items show a re­ duction' in returns as compared with March 1922, officials regard the analy­ sis of payments, which was made pub­ lic, as giving evidence through gener­ ally increased returns from the var­ ious tax.-soiirces of a healthier nation­ al business statg. Proof of a more liberal spending the country over is shown, as the offi­ cials view the sititatibn, in the in­ crease in manufacturers' excise taxes on automobiles and accessories' from which in March the treasury received $12,173,000, or $5,100,000' more than In. March, 1922. There also was a mark­ ed increase reported in the tax on capital stock -of corporations from which was derived $778,000, an indica­ tion, it was said, of expansion in in­ dustrial program. The tax is small and an increase of about $150,000, as reported, was declared to represent important developments in capital stock additions. ' Tobacco taxes afforded observers another evidence, .it. was said, of great­ er use by most of the public of the current buying power, taxgs. on this commodity aggregating $25,667,000 in March, as against $21,427,000 for the corresponding month a year ago. The principal increase in the aggregate amotint came from larger taxes on cigarettes, which yielded a total for the month of $15,130,000. Cigar taxes netted the -treasury $3,849,000 and chewing and ^smoking tobacco about $5,000,000. Documentary stamp sales for'the- month were reported at :$3,849,000, al­ most $400,000 greater than for March last year and: also.'greater by about $50,000 than*in.February, There has been a.generally larger sale of-stamps each' month in the'last'year;as com­ pared with previous months, except for one or two periods when small de­ clines, were recorded. Theater admission taxes brought in $6,700,000 In Mareh as compared with New York.—Flames that suddenly enveloped a five story tenment in east 109th street killed 12 'persons, six of j them children, and led to. injury of more than a score of other tenants. Two hours before daybreak Harhis Vogel, from his home across the street, saw flames burst suddenly from/'every floor of the building. He called Patrolman John Halone and ac­ companied him through the flames to the second floor of the burning tene­ ment. They shouted, broke' down doors and made their way to the first landing of the rickety fire escape. Above them women and children screamed. Malone tried to drop the ladder to the side-walky' Rusted with age, it stuck. A taxi-cab, driven by Mannie Friedman, a former pugilist, pushed through the hysterical crowd until it was directly beneath the fire escape. A hundred women and children were passed down the fire escape to the top of the cab and were saved. Meanwhile, on the . top floor, • the family of David Mandelbaum, painter, was trapped-, Mandelbaum’s son, Hy­ man, crawled with Jiis family to the fire escape and was saved. Mandelbaum tried to go back for his wife and-'six other children, rang­ ing in age from one to sixteen years, but. failed. In the apartment adjoining that- of the’ Mandelbaums-an entire family perished. Aaron Kuxis, his wife, their daughter,. Bertha, 21 years old, and their 18 year old son, David, were found on the floor near the open door. Berfha was,engaged to-be married. She would have been saved but went back to get hdr wedding dress. When her body was found a bit of scorched Iace was clutched in one hand. Mrs./Isaac Brownstein, who lived on the third floor, died in a hospital from burns.. Announce New Gas Price Cuts. New York.-t-The Standard Oil Com­ pany of New Jersey announced an­ other cut of one cent a gallon in the prieeSof gasoline throughout its domes­ tic territory with the exception of a few points where varying adjustments were made. This is the second cut within a week and is due, the com­ pany states, to a surplus production of crude oil and a^ consequent lower­ ing prices. The Standard Oil company of Louis­ iana, a subsidiary of the New -Jersey Company, also has reduced the price of gas'oline one cent a gallon in Louis­ iana,'Arkansas and Tennessee. The Texas Company and the Gulf Refining Companjr also announced re­ ductions of one cent a gallon in the price of gasoline in their territories. 'TRAIN STRIKES CAR KILLING FOUR MEN.

Speaking at the annual luncheon of members if. the Associated Press, Mr. Harding set* forth the reasons which, impelled him to recommend to the senate shortly before the adjournment of Congress the adhesion of the Unit­ ed States to the world court protocol as drafted under the-league of nations, outlined Whe advantages he believed WOjild accrue from adoption of the rec­ ommendation and presented, for the first time answers to. the arguments of opponents of the administration plan. In doing so, the-chief executive as­ serted his conviction that American membership in ,the court would be “in' harmony with party platform pledges,'- candidatorial promises and American aspirations.’-’ It would not be' and could never be construed as being an indirect entrance into the league of nations, he deciared-’with emphasis. The Eiddress made before, a thou­ sand of the nation/s leading news­ paper editors and publishers was gen­ erally 1 consider^ as the beginning, of the presentation which the President plans to ,make during the spring and summer of the principal policies to be pursued,during the next year. Political leaders throughout the country admittedly .in disagreement as to the Wisdom of the world court recommendation awaited with intense interest the address and were watch­ ing for the country’s'reaction. What­ ever reception it might be accorded by the American people, the President indicated clearly that he stood firmly behind his recommendation. The address was the principal fea­ ture of the executive’s visit to New York, the first in a year and a half, r Accompanied by Mrs. Harding and several‘high officials, he arrived in the Metropolis shortly after 6 o’clock. After breakfast on his special train, he with his party went to he Waldrof Astoria hotel.

" Washington.—Modernization .of the older ships of the American flet will await specific authority of Congress, Secretary -Jenby announced, and the navy department will abandon for the time being the program which it com siders may have been hpproved under a misapprehension of the situation.' The secretary's decision, which was said to have the approval of President Harding, was regarded as closing the incident created- through the protest of the British embassy against state­ ments made before Congressional com? mittes when the department was seek­ ing appropriations for installing post­ war improvements in the battleships. Navy officials then asserted that no criticism of the work, could be made as contravening the five-power naval treaty' since Great - Britain had com­ pleted, similar alternations. This was denied by ,the embassy. As a result of discussion the $6,500,- 000 appropriated by the last .Congress for gun elevation will be left in the treasury and refunded at the end of the fical year as "unexpended money.' With official opinion in—the navy from Secretary Denby down holding unanimously that the modernization program ,fs permissible under the treaty drawn’ up at the Washington arms conference-and'essential, to the American naval standing, it was re­ garded as certain. that the matter would be-presented anew to Congnress during the December session. The de­ partment’s recommendations, however, then is expected to be' based .on the technical; necessities, of the situation without rCgard' to what'any oilier na­ tion has fione or may do. I While the immediate problem was removed by Secretary Denby’s state­ ment, naval officials decided that, a large- question of treaty interpreta­ tion remained which ultimately would have to be answered. Amofig the five signatories of the Washington naval convention, Great Britain has indicat­ ed specifically she considered changes in gun elevation to come within the provisions prohibitng Iateraton of de­ sign, of main batteries. - France . Jtas taken the opposite view, several bat­ tleships now being in dry dock for such improvements. Great Loan to Be Made to Austria.

Many instances of losses duejto this cause have come to the department’s attention. For example, a co-opera­ tive association in Indiana recently shipped a car .containing 66 sheep and 6 cattle. * The-sheep weighed 5,195 pounds and the cattle 5,800 pounds. The total freight charge on the ship­ ment was $105.60, or at the rate of 95 cents per 100 pounds.' The actual rates quotable from the point of shipment to point of desti­ nation were: Sheep 4$ -cents and cattle 38 cents per 100 pounds. The high rate actually Charged was due largely to the fact that the six cattle Included in the shipment made it nec­ essary to apply the cattle' minimum weight of 22,000 pounds, which may be compared with the sheep minimum gt 12,000 pounds and with 10,995 pounds, which was the actual weight of the shipment.- Had the cattle been excluded, this car could have, been forwarded at a total charge of only $57.60 instead of $105.60, which,was actually paid. The charge for ship­ ping the six cattle, therefore, was $48, which was an increase of 83 per cent over the charge which would have been- levied on a* straight carload of sheep. 'Stating it differently, Uie freight charge on the cattle amounted to 83 cents per 100 pounds. Highest Weight and Rate. The important fact to be borne in mind, tlie department-says, is that as ,a rtfle where two or -more kinds of. stock ore shipped in, the same car the freight for the entire load is.based: on the highest minimum weight com­ bined with the highest rate. A mix­ ture of’ cattle and sheep therefore usually takes the’, cattle . minimum weight and the sheep rate. , As a rule cattle\ take the highest minimum weights, with hogs next, calves next and sheep the lowest.' In Qie case of rates the order is gen­ erally’reversed*. -Sheep take-the high­ est rate, hogs and calves the next highest, with cattle generally taking the lowest rate- • In all cases,'it? is pointed out, the local agent should be consulted re­ garding minimum weights, freight rates, shrinkage allowances and any other pertinent matters If the shipper desires to forward his- stock In the most economical manner. Although there are many complica­ tions, variations and exceptions in connection with’freight tariffs, gener­ ally speaking, cattle have € lower rate than any other kind," of. live stock. The' hog and calf rates are roughiy 115 per cent of .the cattle rate, and the sheep rate 125 per cent of it. Hogs, sheep, and calves, when -in double deck cars, .ordinarily go at the cattle rate, although in some sections hogs are accorded the same rate whether in double or single deck cars. Plan Economical, Mixtures. Obviously, -In planning, economical mixtures of live-stock, for shipment, the expensive combination of- high minimum weight and'-high.tate Is to be avoided/especially If: the car Is not to be loaded to at least the full mini­ mum weight. In some cases where a shipper has one or two animals of one class with a high-freight rate In' a carload of another class, it may be cheaper • to exclude them from, the carload arid order them'forwarded, in, the ,same car,"as less than carload shipment at less than ‘carload rates. The carrier, however, is- required to collect the lower rat| unless: the ship­ per definite# instructs the UseiOf a method making the less than carload rate applicable. •>, ' • Sonie rates are made on a car- lengtli-basis. When-such is the case nnd the railroad; for its own conven­ ience; furnishes a forty-foot car after a standard car was specified In a written order,'; charges must be as­ sessed on a stifndard car, provided the shipment could have been made .In the smaller crir and the .-shipper took the' proper precaution' of having, the agent make the proper entry on the blit of. lading when loading out.

Setting eggs for shipment are packed, in several different ways. According to poultry specialists of the United Stales Departmeht of Agricul­ ture, one of the best methods is to use a common market baskpt* well lined oh the bottom. and sides with excel­ sior. After wrapping each -egg in a. thin layer of paper and enough excelsior to make a ball about three inches-in di­ ameter, pack them tightly In the bas­ ket.- Then put on a covering of ex­ celsior and over all sew a piece of strong, cotton cloth, or Uie cloth can be pushed up under the outside -rim of the basket with a case knife. The latter method of fastening the cloth is' much quicker than the former, and just as effective. Eggs for setting are also shipped safely almost any distance Dy pacx- Ing,them In a stiff pasteboard, carton or box made for this purpose, the space around the egg being filled with' either chaff or bran. This package is then placed In a basket, the! bottom* and sides of which are lined with ex­ celsior;-,and the space's at. either end, of the box packed with the same ma­ terial. 'On top of this package' Is placed more escglslor and.all* is cov­ ered with cloth. This method, of pack­ ing may be used where eggs ,are shipped both by express"'afid by par­ cel post. . . ' Extra stiff cardboard cartons ’made to hold from-one. to several settings are used to ship eggs. These cartons, or egg boxes, are fitted with a handle for carrying, ,similar to, that on a market basket Bushel baskets are commonly used to: ship! froth ten to twelve settings of eggs, the manner of .packing and covering being' the Shme as in common market baskets; It is customary to “rest” eggs for ,batching for . about 12 hours after they are received to allow the germ to regain its. normal position before the eggs ate placed In the incubator. CLEAN EGGS WORTH TROUBLE Keeping Hen’s Feet Free , From Mudf and Dirt is Not an Easy Propo- sition for Farmer. (Prepared by the United Staten Department _ , of Agriculture.)Poultrymen need not be at the'nest to wipe,Mrs. Biddy’s feet before she enters to. make her daily contribution- to their profits, but if the hen house Is so arranged that her feet will be clear? and . will not dirty the egg, .it Will mean added profit for the owner. - Dirty eggs are C second-rate product on any market, so' are washed eggs. This means Jhat the egg must be pro­ duced clean, which further means clean nests apd clean feet. Cl.ean nests are easy—comparative­ ly. A change of nesting material, whenever it gets dirty, will do away with the danger of soiling from this source, and special care must be taken to see that the birds do not roost-on the edge of the nest's at night Keeping the bird’s feet clean is a much more difficult proposition. First of all it, is most essential to have a clean doormat in the shape of fresh litter and plenty of It on the floor at all times; secondly, do not let the birds out on muddy days when their feet are bound to get daqbed up, Mosrimportant of rill, keep the drop-' ping board clean. Daily scrapings are preferable, but if a poultryman feels that he has riot the time for this, they should be' cleaned, at least twice a week. A cage of one-inch or one-and- one-half-inch poultry wire tacked under the perches and over the drop­ ping boards will, prevent the birds Jrom walking on the. boards; and In­ cidentally wilt catch any eggs that are dropped in the flight. 1 - Even ,with this extra care, the poul- trymau must-exp,efct some dirty-eggs arid a word of. advice on how. to clean -them might bo fimely. .The.so-cnlled plain dirties,- those soiled by dirty feet arid dirty nests, are easily cleaned with a soft damp cloth, which should be' used only on the dirty spots.

It I; very important that the gelatinous coating which, seals the egg should riot be soaked off, 'as this covering is germ- proof and serves as a natural means of keeping the egg fresh.

Purebred live stock has about'40 per - cent greater earning power (apart fririm Its breed­ ing or sale value) than scrub stock. The superiority of 'purebreds on a utility bams is- flue principally to: Better conformation and quality,. inf creased production, more economical production, and earlier maturity.

The following are some reasons'why we should rates purebred poultry. (a) There- ts greater egg production,.

Opinion As Handed Down The Moat Im­ portant Co-operative Deciaion Yet Rendered In United Statea-Con­ tracts Binding. Thedecision of the state Supreme court handed down by the body relating to the contract of the Co­ operative Marlcetiug Associatiou of Xoitli Carolina is very explicit iu declaring the organization to be constitutional and not a monopoly Cliiel Justice Clark sets forth in his statement of the courts findings the following points of interest to all menbers if not to all producers of the products handled by this or­ ganization. The act establishes a complete plan of organization for co-opera­ tive marketing of agricultural pro­ ducts under the fullest public sup­ ervision and control. Every pos­ sible safeguard against- private pro­ lit, manipulation by a few power­ ful members, squeezing out of the wtaker members and abuse of power are embraced in the-law ,’-’ according to Chief Justice Clark, who said, “ instead of creating a iinnopoly, the object is by a, ra­ tional metnod of putting the raw product on the market from time to time as there is a-legitiniate demand for its manufacture, and by the ex­ tension of credit to farmers to en­ able this to be done to prevent a monopoly of the tobacco industry by those who manufacture it.” The right of the association to collect liquidating damages was made clear by the court, which stated, '"Uieiaw permits liquidated damages in case of breach, indeed; siuh damages would have been al­ lowed without any statutory pro­ vision,” and poiuted out that on account of the co-operative nature of the enterprise, and since it makes no profit, a grower who lias breached his contract must pay the cost of the suit including premiums for botids, expenses and fees iu the action, as the membership of the association is limited to growers, and a contract breaker breaches his contract against his fellow members, so that it would be un fair \o make them piy for his violation. Declaring the the co-operative as- I sociution increases cansuinption by I furnishing the regular supply at (the same time enables the laborer I and the fanner to obtain a re>uun lenitive return, Justice Clark made gclear that while cotton prices have (hitherto dropped in October be IcaUse the product was dumped upon jthe market this year, since the co !operative assocsation took control of close to two million bales of cot- |ton, the price opened at 20 cents in September, and, instead of' going |doivn, it rose to around 30 cents. “It H an entire misunderstand |ng of the fact that an orderly ^systematized co-operation among |he producers to prevent a sacrifice of their products and realize a Iiv |»g wage for the producers, has Jny atialogy to the system by gvhich great combinations of capital Tlave prevented the laborer and the Ianuer alike from realizing a rea­ sonable reward and a decent Iiv IN-" Iieclaring that the legality of co |perative mareting association has geeii upheld in niauy decisions in- |ther courts this opinion stressed Ihe fact that the members of the lobacco Growers' .Co-operative as- PciatiQn are associating themselves ' aui-horized by the statute, like Rher persons, and they have signed mutual and fair agreements a- »°ug themselves, which will be Ptile unless those who have signed uch agreements can be held to a- Sde by the terms of their contracts, IDeBuiug the difference between porporaltou and a co-operative, the- chief justice, in handing down the decision of the court declared, ‘‘the co-operative principle requires its services to be performed for the co-operative members by their ap­ pointed representatives, and not independent-business units dealing at arms length and striving for profit.” The extent and benefits, of co- operative markettiig were brought outin the opinion of the court, waich referred to the fact that an­ nual turn over of co-operative as­ sociations in California is app:oxi- mately three hundred million dol­ lars; that there were at least four­ teen thousand farmers’ buying and selling associations in the United State in 1920., whose annuai busi ness has been placed at about one billion dollars. The decision disposes of the case of Maynard Mangum, pro­ minent defendant, of Durham, and exemployefc of the- association; the case of W. J Ball, large and wealth}' plauter, of Warreivcouiity, and the cases of W. T. Jones and Z. A. Harrell,,which were the first to be tried by the Tobacco Growers Co-operative associ it ion. It alsoi disposes of the case of the Peanut Growers Association vsr C. T. Harrell, a case of involving a co-operative organized under the laws of Virginia and operating in North Carolina. Tne opinion of the court as hand­ ed down is the most important co­ operative decision yet rendered in the United. States, and an import­ ant mile post in co-operative law It settles for all time the legality of CQ operative: ,marketing associations and'; contracts in North' Carolina. ‘ The Tocacco Growers - Co;opera tise Associa ion. following its legal victory in the Supreme court of North Carolina Saturday instituted tep suits for liquidated damages a-' gainst grower members in six coun­ ties in North Carolina. Other suits against recalcitrant members in Virginia and South Carolina are soon to follow, according to infor­ mation received at the legal head­ quarters of the Tobacco Co opera­ tive in RaleighApril 16th. Suits IiledApril 161I1 in Wake county named as defendants James Pebfo' and Isaac Green, of Wilson county, J. H. Keel and Jesse Whitfield, of Pitt county, Jatnes H. Everett and G. G. James, of. Martin county, J. T. Hartgrave and D. D. Hall, of Stokes county, also W. C. MarionA of Surry county, from whom dam­ ages are sought in amounts rang­ ing from $225 to $750, aggregating close to $3,500 inclusive of attorneys fees. That the members Of the Tobacco Co operative heartily concur iu the opinion of ChiefJustice Clark, that a contract breaches his contract against his fellow members and it will be unfair to make them pay for "his violation,” is evidenced by the fact that more than $50,000 has been collected from members of the Association who' have sold their tobacco iu the auction warehouse floor. - . . OuLof the 145 ,suits which have been started, a large number have already been settle and ,the decision of the North Carolina Supreme court declaring the right of the as­ sociation to collect damages and attorneys fees further strengthens the association in these suits. One Road To Success. It was a Beti Franklinism—the ad­ monition a wise and aff >ctionate par­ ent tendered his young son, & poor boy, who Kgd just secured his first job, as follows, ’Do your work a little better than your boss expects. Turn out a little more product than he hopes When Democrata Belittle AccompIiah- menta of the Republican Admmiatra- tion, Juat Refreah Their Memoriea. Do you remember when, under the Democratic Administration, the country was beirg panhandled to "buy a bole of cotton mills are breaking all records with over 35,- ooo.ooo spindales in operation ami we are exporting less cottou be­ cause of increased domestic con­ sumption. Cotton in the raw re­ ceives a rare price. Do you remember when, late in the Democratic Administration, a movement was. on foot to induce the Democratic Cougregs to appro­ priate many millions of-the tax­ payers’ money for public works such as liver efhd harbor improve tneuts, publicljuildings, roads, etc., in order that tne 4.000.000 men who were out of employment might be given something to do? Today the Governuient is being earnestly requested to curtail public works in order that those employed there­ on may be released to private in­ dustries which are operating at something under their capacity be­ cause of the shortage of labor. Du you remember the 'deflation political brought on by the Demo­ cratic Administration, which took such merciless toll of tlie farmer’s substauce; the days lateiu the Wil rsou regime when farming was a loosing game; when in anticipation of the Republican emergency tariff law Canada shipped in 45,000,000 bushels oL wheat.; wheu foreign WQoL was ^decimating:.- .Ameiiean sheep? The- 1922 .survey'-of the Department of Agricultue ‘ ‘show­ ed that in case of all but '5 of our 31 major crops output was greater than iu 1921. The volume Of these 51 crops was 7 per cent larger than in 1921; and as the the December 1 farm prices average 25 per cent higher than a year ag;o, the total value, $7,500,000 was about one- third more the sheep situation in 1922 over that than in 1921. Do you remember that steel pro­ duction satid rapadily following the World War until it below pre-war levels? Steel! is' now being pro­ duced.at the rate of 43,000,000 tons annually, and may go to 45.000,000, which will equal the record year of 1917 when the Allies and our Gov­ ernment were deluging the mills with orders. And steel is called the barometer of business. Do you remember-wheu the state of the- Government’s finances was -such iu i920 that a taxpayer didn't kuow whether: he was coming- or going? Today the uatioual debts has been -reduced oyer three billiou dollars; taxes have been cut over eight hundred, million; a sinking fund of $345,000,000 has been provided for; appropriations on ac­ counts of Government for the fiscal year 1924 are- $2,748,000,000 less than they were for 1920 under the Democratic Congress; -the British debt has been straightened out; and the chances are pretty good for a balanced ledgef oil June 30th. Do you remember the last year, under President Wilson, when Fed­ eral war bonds were 15 per cent be- Ijw par? Today they are practi- c.illy at par. - And remembering all these things are you likely to break up this en­ tire. program, ,of reconstruction by 1 Restoring to ^^v er the' Democratic party which :was primarily respon­ sible for the-financial and-econo- niicial chaois.-&isti ng when the Re­ publican came into control.

Ifyou think it doesn't pay to advertise ask some of the various Citizens in Davie.. They can tell you. Don’t let the price of sugar keep you awake at nights for there will be but little fruit to 'preserve any­ way. When the time comes that the average man will pay his preacher, Iiis doctor and his editor, the niil- lenium will not be far off. / Itissaid that automobiles have about bankrupted 'this country. Many men are driviug cars that cannot pay tlieir honesi debts. Much property is changing hands in Mocksville these days. We ver­ ily beHeve that a high tax rate is sometimes a blessing in- disguise. It takes a good deal of boosting. a good deal of knocking and lots of hard work to get a town started to growing. We have done onr share of all three. No, by heck, the old barii hasn’t been torn down: When you go to Calahaln take a look at it and re­ member what happened to Napo Ieon in the long ago. The Record neveV says any­ thing so mean about an officeholder but what he can apologize if neces­ sary, although sometimes it takes a gooil deal of nerve to do so. L -Help to make this a bigger and better town by joining the Cliambti of Commerce and subscribing for The Davie 'Record. They both mean much publicity for the old towu. ^ The Carolina Special is still run­ ning through Mocksville daily de­ spite the fact that High Point, Sal­ isbury and Lexington citizens can­ not sleep at uight for thinking ot what they are missing. Some of the co'ton fanners are s&try that they did not turn their cotton loose when the price touch­ ed 31 cents. It may reach this figure again this spring but pros: pects are not verv bright jUst now. But when it comes to cotton you can never tell what a day will bring forth. The Greensboro News wants to know why the Record man cannot eat blackberry pie now instead of waiting for the new crop. We could, brother, but if you had eat en as much canned goods as we have you would be ashamed- to o$eu a can of blackberries. They arg imitations, anyhow. . More new buildings have been erected in Mocksville iu the past year than in any three years pre­ vious W hat the town needs now is a 'bigger payroll. To get this much needed thing our citizens will have to pull together and see that any new enterprise that wants to locate here is given a fair deal. The town election is in full blast as we to press. We trust -that the men who are elected today will do as much for the town as the board that has served for the past two years. If there ever was a-tim e when the town needed live, pro gressive men to serve on the board, right now is the time. We cannot afford to go backward. There is much work needed to be done by .the new board, and we trust that they will waste no time putting down some' cement sidewalks, get­ ting the town wired for electricity, putting the business sectiou of the town in a sanitary condition and helping to enforce all the laws that are made and provided to make this a better town in which to live. The Record will co-operate with* them in every way possible. Back In Davie. To The Pe- pie of Davie:—On Thursday. Dec. 27, 1888, with wife and two children, I reached Mocks- ville. The next morning, leaving wife and children with-Mrs. Clem­ ent, Maj. W. B. Clement took me iu his buggy to New Hope church in Iredell county to attend a Union meeting. We spent Friday uight and Saturday night in the home of J. B. Holman. Sunday at 11 a. ui., they had the MocksvilIe “new preacher” to preach, or try to. I took as my subject “ Ezekiel’s Vis- i Jii of the Gospel River ’ ’ Ezekiel 47. As I remember it now, the following was my outline'. " The origin of the Gospel, verse' 1. The increase of the Gospel, verses 2 to 5. The extent of the Gospel, verse 10, from Engedi even unto Eneg- Iai m — that is from one side to the other. The life giving effects of the Gospel, verSe 9. When I was tillough I had such a fee.ing of failure that I wanted to sink ou: of sight. That afternoon we drove back to Mocksville, and that night I conducted my first service as past or in Davie county. Eleven years, first atd last, we lived in Mocks-Zrville. Every year for the 34' I have been iu the county niore or less, holding meetings, burying the dead, marrying yotmg people, visit­ ing-the sick, "On Business,for My King.” Some of the best years of uiy life’s service have beeu spent iu Davie county. Feeling that our churches needed younger men as pastors, I gave up the work as re­ gular paitor the last of last year— and never to be regular pastor any more. The first of March Coolee- Iee church asked me to supply for them for one month and help them what I could in building a parson­ age and preparing to take caie of a regular pastor. The first of April they asked me to stay another mouth or as. long as necessaty to get the work in shape. This is May and I am here still. I ameu- joying the work here. Years ago I certainly enjoyed going'into the h )mes of the people, and I went in­ to nearly all of them. IfJt had the time and a “John Henry” cf my own, I would like tp go iuta the homes of the people again. Bless ings on you. Come to Cooleemee and- worship with us some, Sunday while I am here:—will be glad to' hjave you. By the . way, my son, T. Leary Cashwell, is conducting a meeting here for a week or two.

" ROM SHIPS / Imo vessel can come into AMERICAN WATERS WITH LIQUOR. I Notice of the Decision Will Be Com­ municated to AU Foreign Coun­ tries. i. UNITED STATES IS DRAGGED INTO CONTROVERSY AT - . LAUSANNE. S g ! HHs IOf t IVashingtom-The American gov- Iernment1 taking a positive position Iwith regard to the transportation of Iliquor into territorial waters of the I Vnited States, decreed that the rigor- ICUS interpretation of the prohibition Slaw given by the supreme court shall jbecome effective June- 10. Secretary Hughes was requested |by the treasury to communicate no- Itice of the decision to,all foreign gov- Iernments. The treasury which has |juristdiction over all prohibition en- |forcement suggested, that the state !department advise foreign, govem- Iments that all ships entering the Ithree mile limit will be subject to the Iaew application of the law without !exception and that no further pro- |nouncement may be expected from Ithis government regarding the effec- Itive date. ' ' While the portion adopted by the !administration appeared to leave no- |road for a backward step, -it seemed certain that representations will come some foreign governments who ay regard the court's interpretation the iaw as an infringement of their rights. Secretary Hughes was said ;to regard the position of.the American government as sound and with plenty of precedents establishing the rights vhich it has assumed. There were, |on the other hand,' some government !officials who believed the United States could not fail, in the interest of [international comity, to take notice of protests by foreign governments, if any are made. IVashington embassies and Iega- ltions of practically all o{ the mari- Iiiiie powers of the world already pave advised7 their home govern- of the court decfcftn. It was Iindicated that the attitude taken by Ithe United States government as to !application likewise would be made known to the foreign offices of all na­ tions probably before the. state de­ partment's communication is received Jhrough American diplomatic repres­ entative sabroad. ‘ " IVhile state department officials hre of the opinion that the decision pas in no way infringed upon treaties vith foreign governments, it is not certain that the foreign powers will accept that view. In fact, some dip­ lomatic quarters already have let it Je known that limitations imposed by |he decision are in direct conflict with featy provisions, particularly in trade jgreemnets guaranteeing equality of treatment to shipping. ’ ARE STAIIDIKG FIRM Legal Guarantee to Be Accorded For­ eigners is the Cause of Hitch. Lausanne.—The United States has been dragged into a controversy that threatens to cause the collapse of the second near east peace conference. The delegates are desperately seeking a solution of the situation to prevent the rupture feared in consequence of radical differences- between the Turks and the allies and the Ameri­ cans over the special legal guaran­ tees to be accorded to foreigners, in­ stead of the former consular - courts ablished by Turkey as part of the capitulations. The controversy hinges on the au­ thority to be(granted the foreign legal advisers Turkey agreed to employ, and also upon the possible obligations insurred by the allies, in their fever­ ish activities at the! last conference, when the French anil Italians, aided by the American representative, inter­ vened at -the last minute in an unsuc­ cessful attempt to prevent the col­ lapse of the conference. . . Ismet Pasha again offered to sign the Italian formula which was accept­ ed then, but which the allies have now withdrawn, the -British never hav­ ing, ratified it. Ismet declared, during the proceedings, that the Americans has distinctly approved the Italian draft. Sir Horace Riibold,' the British high commissioner at Constantinople, said the compromise had been effected after Lord Curzon left Lausanne. Therefore,'it was after the'close ot the conference and was not binding. He read a- somewhat revised version of the original demands under which arrests, searches and seizures' of for­ eigners in Constantinople and Smyr­ na and others of the allies, who said it consent of the legal advisers, but ar­ rests elsewhere in Turkey should simply be brought to the atention of the advisers. Sir Horace was sup­ ported by General Pelie, the French high commissioner at Constantinople, and others of ,the allies, who said it was .only reasonable that foreigners should ask for special guarantees for some years after the abolition of cap­ itulations. . Ismet accused the allies of bad faith.. He declared vigorously that Turkey regarded the legal advisers question as closed, and said she must refuse -to discuss it again. Lexington. -— Henry Dickerson,. Boy Scout, met almost instant death here when he fell beneath a moving truck which he Was at­ tempting to board. One wheel of the truck, loaded with crushed stone, is said to have passed over the boys head or neck, and he died before he could -be removed .to ,his home nearby. , ' Young Dickerson was one of - a band of Scouts on their way to make inspections of yards follow­ ing a spring “clean-up” campaign. Several other Scouts caught the rear of the truck, which was driv­ en by John Green, well known known young white man of this community, but Dickerson ran around to. the side, and when he attempted to step on the running board he slipped and fell on the paved street.

Instead of fleeing this port as had been reported, the rum fleet had mere­ ly moved a little farther south of Sandy Hook and. taken up more open formation, and efforts to get their cargoes ashore were redoubled. The Seneca had just located the British yacht -Istar off Jones inlet. Commander Camden said, when a big gray seaplane swooped down beside the rum runner and two of the fliers clambered • aboard. The Seneca put- on full speed toward the seaplane but before she arrived a smaller plane which had been circling high over­ head, swooped down signalling the other.' The gray planes occupants In ilei liacli M ani toot the air Wore He Seneca arrived. - A short time later the Seneca sight­ ed two boats, ostensibly lobster fisher­ men, alongside another unit of the rum fleet' She sped toward them and the lobster boats fled leaving behind submerged boxes, which- were believ­ ed to be cases of liquor which were to be towed ashore under water. The Seneca dropped a shot across the lobster main’s bow and drew alongside as the craft came to a sud­ den halt. The five occupants were brought to the customs house here and arraigned on charges of being alongside, and boarding a foreign ves­ sel, the Independence.

Richmonad, Va.—Practically every line of trade and industry for which statistics were available showed marked gains during ,the past month and in some instances the improve­ ment was so marked that careful ob­ servers are beginning to warn the public against becoming too bullish on the future, says the federal reserve bank of Richmond. In its monthly re­ view of business and agricultural con­ ditions in the Fifth federal reserve district, made public. “Price, advances are being hade fro quently jn many commodities,” the re­ view stated, “and labor is becoming so much in demand that employers are beginning to bid against each other for employees. Credit appears to be plentiful at moderate rates and a very large volume of construction work is - being undertaken, some of it with very little actual cash to back the operations.” Commenting upon the’ tendency to­ ward speculation, the bank said there were signs “that a consideraable amount of speculation is being indulg­ ed in, but when all the evidence is weighed it does not appear as yet that any serious alarm is felt over the out­ look.” Seeing in the general improvement a revival of business,” the bank declares that “on the whole the revi­ val of business appears to be solidly based on a real improvement in - the economic condition of the masses of the people, especially of the agricul­ tural classes of the district ofitside of the weevil infested sections of South Carojina.” The report adds that merchants are filling their shelves .with sufficient merchandise to care for. the demands of their patrons but declares that they “are not ordering recklessly for fu­ ture delivery.” “In yiew of the small surplus stocks of cotton and toljacco likely to be car­ ried over this year,” the bank con­ cludes, “it appears that the district will continue to enjoy a fair amount of business for some time to , come; “From the standpoint of the work­ er,” the report continued, “labor is now occupying a strong position, all able bodied and trained workmen find­ ing ready employment at good wages The textile industry continues to op­ erate on full time and reports of.mill authorities view the future with confi­ dence in spite of a recent slackening in the volume of orders placed with them.

From New York to San Diego is only a hop. The Atlantic and Pacific are terminals in American’s air lanes— and if one wishes—there are NO stops between. With the arrival at Rockwell Feild, near here, of the army monoplane T-2, piloted by Lieutnants Oakley G. Kelly and John A. MacReady, the first non-stop flight across the United States was completed. The time from Hempstead, N. Y.', to San Diego was 26 hours and 50 minutes and 48 2-5 seconds. . , The distance Js estimated at be­ tween 2,700 and 2,800 miles. The airmen received a warm greet­ ing when’they were sighted over the city a few minutes before they land­ ed at Rockwell Field. Airplanes HDa the field and naval planes from NorfTi Island escorted the two lieutenants to the landing field. Whistles of fac­ tories and from warships in the har­ bor also joined in the greeting. Both aviators were in good physi­ cal condition -when they landed and after being greeted by army officials were taken to the - officers’ quarters. The historic flight began at Hemp­ stead with Kelly in the pit. The T-2 cleared the hangers at the end of the flying field by inches, nosed up for elevation and turned its nose toward Rockwell Field. It did not stop an inch short of its goal. Spectators at the takeroff, were held in horried suspense for a mo­ ment, when it appeared that the huge plane would not rise in time to clear the building at the end of the field. It was the second start, Lieutenant Kelly having turned back after the first attempt, when it was apaprent the T-2 would be unable to clear the buildings. Roaring westward hour after hour in the supreme attempt of its his­ toric career, the T-2 was awaited in every city, town and village through­ out the long line of flight and tele­ graph instruments during the after­ noon and night told of the passing point hours ahead of the tentative schedule announced. . An ayerage speed of more than 100 miles an hour was maintained for the trip.

While the Chinese have In the past' preferred the taste and smell of fresh-killed meat, they are gradually being edu­ cated to eat the frozen variety, says Consul General Thomas Sammons, Melbourne, in a report just received by the Department of Commerce, and there is a general belief that they will ultimately become accustomed to using' frozen meat freely.

The wild ginger has large, broad heart-shaped leaves which are most conspicuous objects on the rocky hill­ sides in early April, says Nature Mag­ azine. Their thick stems rise some six or ten inches above the ground, but the dull, purplish, cup-shaped blos­ soms must be searched for at the roots, well bidden' among the dead leaves. Two Cheerful Liars. “When I was in India,” said the club bore, “I saw a tiger come down .to the water where some women were washing clothes.’ It was a very fierce tiger, but; one woman, with great pres­ ence of mind, splashed some water In its face—and it slunk away.” “Gentlemen,” said the man In an armchair, “I can vouch for the truth of this story. Some minutes after the incident occurred I was coming down to the water. I met this tiger and, as is my habit, stroked its whis­ kers. ' Gentlemen, those whiskers were wet.” Snappy Comeback.

CHAPTER X —8— Sandy Returns. Eight days passed before Sandy came riding back on Goldie, leading the bny, reaching the Three Star at the end of sunset. Mormon was in his chair with the one letter that Sandy had written, on his lap. Sandy pulled In the mare beyond the corral. He could hear the sound of Sam’s harmonica and pictured him with the instrument cuddled up. un­ der his great mustache. “It’s sure good to be home, Goldie,” said Sandy. Then he let out a mighty, “Hello, the house!” Sam’s lilt ceased abruptly. The rid­ ers came- hurrying. Sam ,appeared, with. Mormon waddling after, too swiftly for his best ease or grace of motion, both grabbing at Sandy, swat­ ting him on the.bacfc. as he off-saddled. 'Lemme go,” said Sandy. “I’m hun­ gry as a spring' b’ar. Where’s Pedro? Pedro, I’m hungry—muy ■ hambriento. Despachese Vd. Pronto! Huevos— seis huevos—fritos! FriJoles! Jamon! Cafe! Panecilos! Todo el rancho! Pronto!” “Si, senor, immedlatameute.” And, with a yell for Joe the half-breed, Pedro hurried away, grinning, to pre­ pare the. six fried eggs! the ham, the coffee, the muffins, everything in the larder! His two partners watched Sandy eat,- plying him with , food and’ then Swith question after /question about the trip, about Barbara Bedding and about Molly’s going to school. “Molly’s got an outfit Barbara Bed- _ding bought her,” said Sandy. “Trunk an’-leather grip, all kinds of do-dads. School costs fifteen -hundred bucks a year. The rest of Molly’s money is banked. Barbara picked out a school In Pennsylvania she said was the best.” “It’s been all-fired lonely with both you an’ her gone,” said Mormon. “An’ the dawg ain’t eat a mouthful, I don’t believe. > Mebbe you can coax him, Sandy. Set around an’ howled like a sick ,coyote fo’ fo’-five days—mostly nights, if the gel balks I’ll stand back of her to quit an’ come back to Three Star.” ■ f - . “An’ have Jordan git her away an’ put her under Plimsoli’s guardeen- ship?” " -‘ “He c’udn’t do that. Mtrandy Bailey ’ud block‘him,” “He c’udn’t do anything,” said San­ dy. “I got myse’f app’inted legal guardeen to Molly while we was in .Santa Bosa, one day Barbara an’ Molly was-.shoppin’.. John Bedding’s lawyer-fixed It up.” The months passed-without.especlal incident at the Three Star. Sandy purchased a champion Hereford bull for the'herd out of the ranch share of the faro • winnings.

In September there was a killing In the Good Luck poolroom, the murder of a stranger whose friends made such an investigation, backed by the real law-and-order element of Hereford, that the exposure brought about for­ feiture of all licenses and a strict shut­ ting down on ,gambling and Illicit liquor. Plimsoll left Hereford for his horse ranch, deprived of the sheriff’s official countenance, and Jordan began to worry about election. One evening In early October a little body of riders came to the Three Star, all strangers to the county, men whose faces were grim, who cracked no jokes, whose greetings were bargly more than civil. “This is the Three Star, ain’t it?” asked the leader of a cowboy, who nodded silently, taking in the appear­ ance of the visitors. “Bourke, Beters and Manning?” “One and all.” answered the Three Star rider. “Find ’em at chuck, I reckon. You-all. are jest In time. If you aim to stay overnight I’ll tend yore hawsses an’ put ’em in the cor­ ral.” “You seem hospitable here.” • The tone was half sarcastic. “Rule.of the ranch,” replied Buck. “Folks arrlvin’ after sundown, the same bein’ strangers, is expected to pass the night, if they’re In no hurry.”' Sandy personally backed the invita­ tion a moment later and steaks were being pan-fried as the men dismounted and lounged on the porch, awaiting their meal. The leader introduced him­ self by the name of Bill Brandon, claiming previous knowledge, without actual acquaintance, of Sandy, Mor­ mon and Sam In Texas. “We’re out after a man who’s been collectin’ hawsses too promiscuous,” said Brandon after supper. “We know you gents by past reputation an’ by what they say of you in vHerefo’d. Also, by that last reckonin’, I ain’t flggerin’ you as any speshul pal of the man we’re tryin’ to rojund up. I’ reckon you know who we mean. Jim Plimsoll, “Lead’s Cheaper Than Rope, but SomoHow It Ain’t So ConvincinV’ who owns what he calls the Waterline hawss ranch, sixteen miles east of you, more or less.; an’ who gits more fancy breeds out of the mangy Cayuses he shows his breedin’ mares’-an’ stal­ lions, than there is different fish, in the sea. From'.all I can. figger. most ,of his' mares must have fo’ foals a year. ■ “Some of us are; from {his state— Mojave county—two of us from Ne­ vada. Me, I’m from California. We’ve all been losin’. hawsses off an’-on an’ we’ve final’ got together an’ compared notes. Seems most of the missin’ stock sorter drifted across the Arlzony iine somewheres between Mojave City an’ Topock. Most of ’em, have beep sold or passed on. AU of ’em have been, fitted an’ doctored more or less.; Talk' points to Plimsoll, so dov some facts, but not enough." , “You been over to his ranch?” asked Sandy. "Jest come from there. He’s slick and’ cool, is Plimsoll. We was sup- -posed to be lookin’ over hawsses for buyin’, but he’s careful who he sells to. We. saw some. An’ we recognized Some. But you. know how it is, Bourke,-it ain’t hard to change a hawss. Tll say this for the man, he’s the finest brand-faker I’ve met'up with. But we're goih’ to git him yet an’, when we do, there won't be anymore bawss-stealin’ an’ fakin’ In Coconino county, Arizona..

Lead’s cheaper than rope, but somehow it ain’t so convincing’ ■- Brandon changed the subject after he had spoken, but it was plain that he and his companions had not given up the matter; clear also that they were sure of Plimsoli’s guilt and lay­ ing plans -to trap, him,, They stayed until the next morning and departed. The incident was forgotten as the roundup days grew near. Molly was not to come home at Christmas after all. She form'ed a friendship,-the first close one she had made, and Barbara Redding advised that the invitation ,extended by this new acquaintance to spend theiholidays i>e accepted. Snows fell, the temperature ranged down far below zero at times, winter gave reluctant place to spring until the last moment When it- turned and fled and, far into the desert, myriads of flower-blooms sprang _ up overnight wlwe (everywhere the cactus. gleamed In silken blooms in yellow and crim­ son. One April night- the Bailey flivver Came charging up to Three Star, smothering itself in a cloud of dust that had not settled before Uiere sprang out of it Miranda Bailey and the lanky Ed, temporarily charged with a tremendous activity. The cause of young Ed’s' galvanism was so strong that .he actually.won from his aunt as bearer of the news. “Gold!" he cried. “They’ve struck pay dirt at Dynamite! Chunks of syl- vanlte that sweat gold in the fire. As­ say thirty thousand dollars a ton. Whole streaks of It. Vein’s twelve foot wide. • The whole town’s stamped- in by way of White Cliff canyon. I’m goin’. Got a pick an’ shovel In the car;’ Aunt' Mirandy, she Was bound we’d come this way. Mebbe we can pack you all in. But you got to hurry or they’ll -swarm over Dynamite like flies’ on a chunk o’ liver!” “It’s true,” backed Miss Bailey. “Folks over to Hereford have gone crazy. I caught a word or two that Plimsoli’s to the bottom of the rush. An’ he’ll grab those claims of Molly’s first thing. That’s one reason I made Ed come this way. Thought you might like to -come erlong, on’y he tookShe words out of my mouth.” “You goin’?” asked Mormon. “Sure am," she answered. “Ed Bai­ ley Senior, he 'lows there’s no sense In chasln’ gold underground. Says he dikes to see his prospects growin’ up under his own eyes an’ gazin’ on his own land. I’m the'adventurous one of the Bailey fam’ly, though ,you mightn’t guess it to look at me,” she said with a twitch of her lips. “Plimsoll ain’t got much love for me. He figgers I lost him his license an’ his brother-in- law sheriff his badge.' He’s right. I did. I flggered you’d not be anxious to let him have his own way about Molly’s claims an’ I ’lowed I’d like to be along ah’ see the excitement. Me an’ Edj here’ll stake off suthin’ for ourselves.' I’d jest as soon git some easy money as the rest of ’em.” Sandy, after a swift word of apology, turned away, toward the bunk house. Mormon, with a sweeping salute from his'bald head to his knees, voiced his opinion. x “Marm,” he said, ..“you’re a dyed-ln the-wool sport an’ I admire to trail with you. But that flivver ’11 sure bu’st its cinches with we-all ridin' it, I’m no jockeyweight, fo’ one.” •It'll stand up. We’ve got to make time.” , With orders to Bu'ck, with some pro­ visions, ammunition and a few .tools, the hurried start was made.- Mormon clambered to the front seat beside yonng Ed, Miranda Bailey sat between Sandy and Sam._ Whatever lack of en­ ergy the lank Ed Junior displayed on his feet, he eliminated as a driver., The springs creaked, chirpings arose from various parts of • the car as it ran, but he coaxed the engine, per- formed.-miracles at bad places in the road, nursed the' insufficient radiator surface and kept the flivver at a sim­mer. They made' the down-road as the sun rose above the run of the'eastem range, so jagged it seemed trying to claw back the mounting sun. Ever iff view below them lay'the intermountain valley in which the camp had been lo­ cated. There were a few tents, some wagons and picketed horses, and there were a great many machines parked at will. • Here and there unbroken glass In-, the windows flung back the sun. Suddenly smoke jetted from a tumbled chimney, other puffs followed ■and steady vapprs mounted. Ant-IIke men .emerged from every house, gath­ ered In little knots, busied' themselves with the ho,rses, hurried back to break­ fasts. Faint sounds came up to the travelers.- “W’udn’t think that' place had been dead as a cemetery fo’ years?” com­ mented. Sandy. “Stahted up overnight like an old engine.

A t all good druggists, Tdirectfrom HFA.ttn.Ptm, ftwdrf., _ assume ,that thedaughters of hens that fare longtime layers will in turn be long-distance performers, and it is not necessary for the farm-flock owner to use a trapnest to detect these heavy layers. Improve­ ment can. best be'made In the fall in selecting these good layers but much progress can also be made In the spring by breeding only from the best hens.in the flock. In the fall the hard worker can be determined by the late­ ness of her moulting. . Her weathered and ragged appearance late in the fall, provided It is not from ill health, means that she is still in her summer working clothes and bent on keeping up the good work of , the summer as long as her. energy lasts. The late moulter is the one to select at that time and from which to save the eggs In the spring fo^ hatching. For the wojk on the experimental farm, 85 late' moulters were selected from 100 pullets that had laid all sum­ mer; The daughters from these 35 selected layers produced In one year a return above feed, cost of $1.65 more per bird than the hens in the original I flock. Other flocks have been, started ; on the' experimental farm to further j demonstrate that the. high-producing hens chn be selected without the aid of a trapnest and that Uieiri daughters retained in the flock will increase the average of the egg production. Mark Heavy Layers. During the winter it often is- pos­ sible to note the hens that are laying. Remembering that a hen In order to be a large producer should be a winter layer, it is advisable to mark these winter layers and in the breeding^ sea­ son separate. them from the rest of the flock and save their eggs for the spring hatch. The main thing to strive for In a farm flock'to make it pay well is large egg production. Large egg production goes band in hand with vigor and stamina.*^ Select the hens that are alert and that are early off the roost. Medium sized hens are often the best layers. Large, fat hens often lack" vigor. BARNYARD MANURE TO MAINTAIN FERTILITY Concrete Pit Is Sure WaytoPre- - vent Big Waste. Many Farmm^ Permit Valuable Mato. rial to .Lose Greater Portion of Its Elements by Failing to Give , Propel* Care, A concrete manure pit is a certain means of saving a part of the millions of- dollars that are wasted annually In this country from careless handling of barnyard manure. Soil fertility built up and maintained by regular applica­ tion of barnyard manure will result in bountiful crops, , yet the majority of farms will allow this material to lose the greater portion of its valuable fer-. tiltzing elements by improper care or lack of care. According to !the. Pennsylvania ex­ periment station the value of manure produced, in one year by a horse Is $31.67; that by. a dairy, cow $38.76. One-half of the value of* manure is in the liquid, consequently every precau- V-< ' i A , I . i- “Dodson’s Liver Tone” Straightens You Up Better Than Salivating; Dangerous Calomel and Doesn't Upset You—Don't r Lose-a Day's Work-Read Guarantee Pennsylvania Manure Pit. tion should be taken to save this part. The simplest manure pit Is simply a water-tight concrete box, which prej vents the valuable elements of the 'manure from leaking away. This can be enlarged'to suit requirements. For the average farm a manure pit 20 feet wide and 24 feet long with an average depth of 4 feet will take care of the storage of manure from 20 animals. It should be made with a floor sloping to­ ward one corner, in which a cistern is located, into which the liquid manure can drain and from which.it can be pumped out. One end should be open so that a spreader can be backed, into the pit to facilitate the removal of the manure. 'The Yertllityj of the farms in eastern Pennsylvania, which has been pre­ served through long years of cropping, has been maintained through the care­ ful utilization of all manures. The accompanying photograph shows a rather elaborate nmhure storage ar­ rangement built near Narberth, Pa. It is provided with a sloping floor upon which the manure spreader can be driven to dump the manure into the pit. The opposite end is open below so that the spreader can be loaded easily. This pit is provided with a roof, which is considered good prac­ tice, as it gives' the manure further protection.’ - , ' - BROODY FOWL POOR BREEDER Roman Remains in Britain. xenvating for the foundation of a. factory to be erected at Keyn- , near Bristol, England, workmen Jnily unearthed Roman remains., R Daily Chronicle of London reports discovery of coffins containing letons, a Roman needle about six |es long, a spoon and a bjooch.

It will be found that some hens go broody several times during'the sea­ son while others of the same breed and strain do not stop laying at all. Those hens that have four or ' five bands on their legs atjthe end of Ihe laying season should not be 'used as breeders. Most of them are not even worth- saving another season as-, lay­ ers, the college says. Figures collected by poultry special­ ists show that it costs 18 Io -20 cents a month to feed a hen'. .A hen that averages i8 eggs a month more than pays her way, even when eggs are cheap. Those that go broody often are not profitable. The college recommends visiting the hen house each night and putting all hens found on nests in the broody coop, leg-banding them at - the same time. Here they are confined for 72 hours and fed laying mash, green feed, and plenty of water. If the broody coop is roomy and in a eoorplace they will soon “come out of it,”* the col­ lege predicts., - Protecting Alaskan .

Jay Gould didn’t seem to notice the Arc de Triomphe, or Notre Dame, or anything. A queer, silent little chap, Lord Dunraven said. . “But at the end of the day’s sight­ seeing Mr. Gould displayed a little interest at last. “‘Who’s this here A.

Tip-burn has come to be known as probably the most serious menace to the potato growing industry in this country.

Postum is a pur^ cereal beverage. _It is coffee-like in color and flavor, but free from any ele­ ment that can harm. Thousands vvho are now saying “No” to themselves" as well as to the chil­ dren, as a safeguard against coffee-; ills, have found better comfort and better health, in-Postum.. Your grocer sells Postum m two forms: Instant Postum (in tins) prepared instantly in the'cup by the addition of boiling water. Pcmtum Cereal (in packages) for* those who prefer the flavor brought out by boiling fully 20 minutes. - The cost of either is about one-half cent a cup beveraob PLAN NOT TO DESTROY BEES PltY take coffee for your­ self while saying “No” to the children? It is true, as most parents are careful to explain, that - little- ’ folks should not endanger health and growth through the drug element in coffee arid tea, but— Your health is valuable, too— and their desire for a hot drink with breakfast may. be as great as yours. Yearly Complaint Made That Honey Gatherers Are KjIIed by Spraying Fruit Trees. Every; year q good many complaints are made by beekeepers all over tlie country that their bees are being killed by the spray applied to fruit trees. There is no need for -this, if . the spray is applied at the proper time. As a matter, of fact; It is better for the spray to be applied at a time when it will noLkill the bees from the.stand* point of the fruit crop itself. The spray is best applied after a majority of the'petals have fallen, say 95 per cent, and should come before .the calyx lobes close. The spray Is equally; ef­ fective In controlling . the?<codllng moth if applied after most of the pet­ als fall and it will not harm ttre.bosa. P r-1§:% I THE DAVIE RECORD, MOCKSVILLE, N.

New York,—W ith production still holding at, high levels, itnerest in financial and business circles center­ ed during the past week In the rather pronounced weakness shown by . the chief speculative m arkets. The average of industrial shares listed on the New York stock ex­ change ' declined four points, cotton lost nearly two cents and w heat react­ ed approximately, four cents. Among other commodities which show a ten­ dency to decline were copper, lead, rubber and sugar. Meanwhile publica­ tions of the prices indicates compiled" •by Dun and. B radstreet brought out the point that the movement was a continuation of the heavier tendency in prices which became evident in April.; Diverse explanations were offered for the declines and various interpre­ tations were placed on their signifi­ cance. In some quarters it was. held that the reactions, were a natural ac­ com paniment of the slackening of the buying- m ovem ents which have been so strongly m aintained during the ear­ ly spring. According to this view business seldom continues In a steady stream , but comes rather in waves. One such wave admittedly- has ended and a new one would not be expected to -start immediately. Those, who ex­ plain the situation in this fashion also point out that the season of the year is at hand at which buying naturally would slacken. A nother group of observers m ain­ tain, however, that other forces ara at work. They point to w hat they de­ scribe and claim that the output of labor is now 'diminishing. • Production costs they aver are being inflated. In spite of this view, conditions in the cotton industry are cited. Manu­ facturers are reported to have acquir­ ed substantial stocks of cotton at the 30-cent level in addition they have since be enforced to increase wages. Jobbers and retailers meanwhile, are not confident of their ability to com­ mand higher prices and their buying has fallen off. U nder these circum­ stances the m anufacturers are reduc­ ing their rate of operation and are buying less cotton which naturally af-' fects ,the price of " comomdity. W ith the latter some three of four cents be­ low the price at which m anufacturers are carrying their inventories the question of profits, is of course, very much to the fore.

Luna was trailed to his; camp in the. chaparral, 25 miles from here, by a sheriff1^ posse and there shot and killed by Deputy Slierife Victor Or­ tega. W ith the death of Luna and the confession he made to Mrs. .Mo­ reno there was solved the mystery of several m urders and assaults which have been committed in the Blo Hondo section of the lower Bio Grande bor­ der in the last two years. For' three days' Luna kept Mrs. Moreno a qaptive In his remote camp, subm itting her to many tortures. Ac­ cording to her sworn story, Luna en­ tered the Moreno home five miles from Eio Hondo, late at night. He awakened her first and asked if her husband was at home. The latter ‘answered for himself, and Luna then struck Moreno over the head, with a pistol arid then picked up an ax with yhich he con­ tinued beating him until he was dead. The bandit then grabbed Mrs. Moreno and placed her on a horse in front of him and fled. He threatened to kill her if she made an" outcry. They traveled most of the night, finally ar­ riving at Luna’s camp,,. . t Kept Girl Prisoner. The camp is about two miles 'from Bancho Nueva and five miles from Los Leones. H ere the girl w as kept in captivity from. Thursday morning until Saturday afternoon. During this time Mrs. Moreno did not eat anything, although Luna brought her food. He w ent to the Chapa ranch bouse, some distance from the camp to obtain food, sh? said. It w as pt the camp that Luna told her of his crimes. According to Mrs. Moreno, she was repeatedly threatened w ith death by Luna while in camp. He spent much of his time telling her of th e ' many crimes he had committed. He said that he kilied Miss M arie Schroeder a£ Klo Hondo two years ago; that he was the man who brutally assaulted E. F. Bhlers of Eio Hondo aftd at­ tacked Mrs. Ehlers, a few weeks ago. His purpose, he said, was to kidnap Miss Buth Ehlers, their daughter, but he w as foiled in this, effort. The • killing of the Schroeder girl was described as the most atrocious in the history of the lower border country. The girl was accustomed to go to and- from school, about three miles from her liome, on a horse.- She failed to return home one evening. Nothing was thought of it at the time, as she frequently spent nights with friends in San Benito. Next day, when she failed to appear, a search was started. later her badly m utilated body was discovered hidden in underbrush. . Got His- Man—Dead. Posses beat the country for several days, and one man, a Mexican, be­ lieved to have had some knowledge of the crime, was killed when he resisted officers. Luna, according to information ob­ tained, was feared by all the people of the Bio Hondo district because of. his brutality arid ,treachery. ' Luna had been suspected for some time of having been implicated in'.the Ehlers crime. At the time this -crime was committed, Sheriff Sam Robert- son put Victor Ortega on the case. Ortega expressed the belief that Luna was the guilty man, and he spent most of his time after the Ehler crime searching for Luna. Bobertson offered a reward of $100 for thfc m urderer of Guadalupe Moreno, dead or alive, and Ortega, w ith' the faithfulness with which he started on the case, got his man—dead. Luna was twenty-four years old and it is believed Iiy peace officers that his death will remove the ringleader of a group of bandits who have been com­ m itting crime's in the Bio Hondo dis­ trict, and hiding in the stretches of brush land between that place and the hay. • IN M EMORY O F W .

' ' (Prepared by the United States Department- ot Agriculture.) The water-oarrying . capacity of- a culvert pipe: can be appreciably In­ creased by merely rounding the inlet end, according to tests conducted *by ,.the bureau of - public j-oads, -UnIteiI States D epartm ent'. of Agriculture. These tests , w ere conducteTT"In the hydraulic laboratory of the State uni­ versity, of Iowa and indicate that a comparatively inexpensive modifica­ tion In the'installatlon of pipe culverts, will considerably Increase their effi­ ciency. It is a well-known fact th a t' an opening w ith sharp corners retards the flow of water. The curved entrance does not need to be large to be bene­ ficial. Simply filling and rounding the groove at tlje bell end of a vitrified pipe w ith cement m ortar will increase the capacity. The same result can be ✓secured- with any kind of pipe by plac­ ing the end a 'few inches back from tlie..face'-of the head jfrall Instead of setting it flush and rounding the con­ crete so as to form a bell-mouthed en­ trance. Such an arrangem ent is par­ ticularly effective when the entrance to the culvert Is submerged and great­ e r capacity Is needed. From actual tests made on a pipe flowing full of w ater it was found that the bell end of a sewer pipe at the entrance increased the capacity 10 per cent .over th a t. of a pipe of :h£ same size with a sharprcornered en­ trance. Filling . In the bell end and. rounding to an elliptical shape with., m ortar caused an additional flow of 2 per cent or 12 per cent more than the sharp-cornered entrance.. This in­ crease’in capacity Is due to the elim­ ination of the cross currents and ed­ dies set up .by a square-end entrance. W ater will enter a pipe culvert In greater quantities when guided smooth­ ly by a rounded entrance than when retarded by eddies. The slight modi­ fication of a pipe culvert entrance by merely rounding the inlet end' is well worth while, considering the greater capacity obtained and ib e sm all in­ crease In cost of construction.

TO INQflEASE POTATO YIELD Gains of Over Thirty-One Bushels to the Acre Reported From Ohio ' . By Spraying. VFhen the actual increases in the potato yields of 62 Ohio farm ers who sprayed their spuds were checked, • they were found to average 31 bushels to the acre. This checks pretty closely with the experience of 32 others who kept figures in 1921, averaging 31.6 bushels tp the acre increase.._ According to L. H. Parks, of Ohio State university, the increase in yield varied from none to 97 bushels to the acre; or from none to 107 per cent. Out of a total of 106 tests only four have failed to show an increase due to spraying, and 30 of the tests showed gains of over 50 bushels per acre. ' In net cash returns these Ohio grow­ ers had an avesage increase of $30.28 per acre. ^ The experience of these men also il­ lustrates the Importance of thorough­ ness. “Four applications showed the high­ est net gain from spraying” reports Mr. Parks. “A distinct relation ap­ peared between gain in yield arid thor­ oughness of spraying.

Lausanne.—The jnurder of M. Voro- vsky, head of the Russian Soviet dele­ gation, to the. N ear E ast conference by M aurice Alexander Conradi, a Swiss, Who once served in the Russian arm y; b a r stirred Switzerland as has no other single event since the ass­ assination of Em press Elizabeth, of A ustria, a t Gqneva, in' 1898. Conradi, who was seized by the police In H otel Cecil aTter he had killed Vorovsky and wounded two at­ taches of the Russian delegation, con­ tinues to m aintain that he acted alone in an qffort to avenge his father and uncle for the m istreatm ent they r&' ceived at the hands' of the Bolsheviki during the “red terror.” The general im pression in N eaf E ast conference circles is that the excitem ent caused by the events will not directly affect the course of the negotiations because Vorovsky was not regarded as an official Russian delegate, -in as m uch as. the Soviet governm ent-w as not;'invited to parti­ cipate in the proceedings. , Switzerland, however/ keenly feels the position in which Conridi’s act places her, and fears that world opin­ ion m ay hold local patriotic associa­ tions morally* or- m aterially respon­ sible, inasm uch a s the Swiss -Fascist organization recently ordered Vorov- sky to leave' the country' :or take the consequences. The im plication in the latter alternative, spokesmen of the Fascisti assert, m eant nothing more rerious than th at Vorovsky would be dosed w ith caster. oil 'or run .out of the country as a penalty for his at­ tacks on the 1 Swiss governm ent for its refusal to grant a visa to a Swiss, courier to Lausanne. • Up to' the present, police inquiries have failed to connect Conradi with the Fascisti at Lausanne. T heZ urich police have been asked to investigate reports th at he was a m em ber of the organization’s branch In that city. Russians ^ in Lausanne, however, were quick to place' responsibility for the crim e ' on local agitation against Vorovsky. They also attacked the Swiss authorities for failing to protect ithe representative of Moscow in" view of the Fascist threats, and expressed bitterness against the Allies for creat­ ing w hat they term ed a dangerous local atm osphere of hostilaty to the Russians.

As to the protest to the various in­ dividuals that the w ork should be done at the, Brooklyn navy yard be­ cause- it had subm itted an estim ate lower than-ttte bid .of Newport News company, Mr. Lasker said* that inas­ much . as • navy yards are /not perm it­ ted under law to subm it formal -bids for such work, the Brooklyn yard could only m ake an estim ate for re­ conditioning the President Buchanan which “at best is a forecast and an opinion with no guarantee.” Should the cost run more, he added, the ship ping board, if the work were done at Brooklyn, would have to pay such cost. In this connection Mr. Lasker wrote:; “In the case' of, the Leviathan the lowest bidder w^s the .Newport News Shipbuilding and Dry Dock company. That-com pany informedNu's frankly at the tim e they m ade their bid that they .were putting^sam e in at cost with as sound judgm ent as the shipbuilding art could' produce, in order that they m ight losit no money. Had th ey ,‘bid’ on it as a navy yard Tjids1- I t would have been an estim ate—and the ship­ ping board would now have to pay' $1,200,000 additional—for this- is what they lost on the job. “The navy yard," the letter con­ tinued, “in its estim ate m akes no pro- -vision for a trial trip< cannot and does not m ake any guarantee on in­ stallation; cannot and does not insure, the vessel.

C. H art, secretary of the Young Men’s Chris­ tian associatfon, in that German city, in a letter received here.tas a warning against American boys signing on the crew lists of foreign cargo sh ip s.' Mr. H art, in his letter to B urt S.-Benn, sec­ retary 0 the Norfolk Central Y. M, C. A., protests .against the practice of certain shipping m asters of putting in­ experienced American boys on German ships, and declares th at the practice should be brought to the attention of port authorities. He refers speclfifcklly to a shipping m aster of Newport News; who, he claims, in January, induced : seven Americans , to- go to work, on the Ger­ m an cargo ship Alsrich. “Four, of: these young men,” thd let­ ter . stated; “had no seamen’s papers, and. three of them had never been to sea before.- AU of these! seven men, exdept one, who.is an old hand at the sea businesJ, are under..23 years of age. One of them is. only 17 years old; “W hen th ey . arrived' in Ham burg, they were promptly paid oft and dis­ charged" so as to give Germans, who work cheaper than Americans, the jobs. N othing was said when they 'signed On- Sbout Jgpting them back to the states. Of course, the shipping m aster was’ paid something, probably $10, for getting these men on Ihe-Ger­ m an ship not by the men .'themselves, but by the ship’s, agents or perhaps by the captain 0 Jhe ship, as he. could not sail without a crew. “ ... “The money they received did not last them long, and now they are here without money and without w ork. Our consul won’t give them food anJ lodg­ ings. because they cam e on German ships, and because m ost of them have no papers m ost of them have, no pa­ pers to prove ,their-status as Ameri­ can seamen. If it .wasn’t for the little help I give them, they would starve ‘and walk the steets at night During the past six weeks we have had about '40 Americans come here on German ships from New Orleans, Norfolk, New­ port News and Savannah." So you can imagine' what an awful problem we have here. American shipping is very poor here now, and it is alm ost inf- possible for these men to get away. Our consul is doing all he can to get the Germ anshipping companies to take the men . back on the ships on which they came or others th at go to the states but without much result so-far.-t------:—:---------------- Two Slain When Failing to Halt.

He’s here to clean up. I tell you, Sandy, the sheriff ought to be on the job on the start «f a rush like this. D—n—dern—few of this crowd’ll ever stop to run shaft or tunnel.

M iranda Bailey and her com­ panions finished -the meal and started out. The Casey^claims-were on the east side of the creek, Sandy knew. The old prospector’s lore, or, instinct, had been unfailing. It remained to see if his m arks and monuments had been respected. Molly had said that the assessment work had been done, and she had so described the place in a narrow terrace of the hill that Sandy felt sure of finding them without trouble. H e pointed out a sign over the door of a shack ahead, white’ lettered on black oil cloth: CLAT WESTLAKE. • ASSAYER—SURVETOR AKD MINING ENGINEER. A knot of men were milling about the place. "Doin’ a trade already,” said Sam. “M ust have brung'-that sign erlong with him. . Smart, fo* a youngster. Simpson said he w as a kid. How ‘bout* seein'-him befo’ -Miss Bailey, an’ Ed here stake their, claims? I’m aimin’ to mark out one fov me, same time.” ’ “Also me,” said Mormon. Guffaws suddenly rose from the lit­ tle crowd by the assayerls ’sign. A . deep voice boomed "out in- bullying tone, followed by silence, then more laughsi Sandy leaned to Mormon. "You keep her an’ young Ed back,’ he said. “Trouble here, I figger.” Mormon nodded, stepping ahead, blocking Miranda’s progress in appar­ ently aimless and clumsy fashion while Sandy, his hands dropping to his gun butts, iifting the weapons slightly ahd, releasing them into the holsters once again, lengthened his Stodev walking cat-footed on the soles o f h i s ’feet, as he always did when he scented trou­ ble. Sam, easing his own gun, lightly touched his lips with the tip of his tongue and followed Sandy w ith eyes that widened and brigl “Buliyin’ the kid, I reckon,” he said to Sandy as they went. Sandy dia not ,need to nod before they'reached the half-ring that had formed chgp in khaki uttees, whose fair Was curly above a face tanned, and resolute enough. T et tie was at th e jibes Of ffie , actions o f the m an who 1 tavy of body, long “Show Ua a Few Steps, You Powder- Faced Doodilt he’s a vodeville performer.- I’ll bet he is,' at that.

Mebbe we’ll let you stay in camp if you amuse-us.” Sandy and Sam had elbowed their way lightly' through'the ring and the. form er turned to the -juan beside whom he happened to stand. 'What’s the idea?” he asked. 'The young ’un good as told Roarin’ Russell he didn’t know w hat he was talkin’ about. Chap asked the kid’s opinion on a bit of-:ore an’ he give it. It didn’t suit Russell.” :- ‘it didn’t, eh? Now, that’s too bad,” drawled Sandy. The other looked af him curiously. • Sandy’s drawl was often provocative; . Russell’s gun barked again. • “Dance, d—n ye! An’ stag, at the same tim e; blast you for a buttin’ in tenderfoot!1 Won’t, eh?” The Victim,' game but despairing, flung a look of appeal about him. To give in m eant to become the laughing-- stock o fth e camp, to have its ribaldry follow him, to be laughed out of the camp, branded as a coward. T et to resist was a challenge to death. The bully had been drinking, thd-gleam in his eyes was that of the killer, a man half insane from alcohol. ' ‘Up with yore hands! Up with ’em, or I’ll shoot the knuckles-.off of ’em! I’il make a jumpln-jaek of you or I’ll shoot yore The first syllable of the intended volley of foulnfess was barely out when- Sandy, stepping forward,- touched the. bully. On the shoulder. Russell whirled as a bear whirls, gun lifting. Z i . "Lady back here In the crowd,” said Sandy quietly.’ For a second Rfissell gasped and Stayed and, as he stared, the cold hard look In - Sandy’s eyes told him the convincing. The bully obeyed him, standing-a t the door in the place of the assayer, who stepped aside, feel­ ing a little sick at the stomach, Sam bracing him In friendly fashion by one elbow. “I won’t shoot yore knuckles off,” said Sandy, “pervidin’ you keep yore fingers wide apaht,- an’ don’t wiggle ’em. Spread ’em out against the wood, bully m an!” . 'H is face, wiiifehihg from the ebb’ of blood fO his cowardly heart, Roarin’, Russell opened his fingers wide, judg­ ing implicit .obedience his greatest safety. - Sandy ^id not move position, lie hardly seemed to move w rist or finger as his guns spat fire, Iegt and right, eight shots blending,! eight bul­ lets smashing • their1 way through the door between the-“V's” of the bully’s fingers' -while the . crowd .held their breath for the exhibition. Sandy quickly reloaded, quickly but without obvious haste. He did not return the guns to their holsters and he paid no attention to the -admiring' comments of the crowd. “You-all interfered with a frtem l of mine,” said Sandy. “It. ain’t a healthy, trick. An’ you ain’t apologised to the lady. I don’t, know how W estlake fe.els about it? but you’ve sure got to apologize to .the lady.” , i Russell’s eyes rolled, from side to Side toward his still elevafed hands. “You can lower ’em it you can’t talk with ’em up,” said Sandy. ‘Tm waitin' fp’ that apology, bpt I’m In a bit of* hurry.” “I didn’t see no woman,” mumbled the bully,’crest-fallen. V ’ "I told you there was one.” said Sandy. ‘‘I don't He. even to strangers. You’re sorry you sw ore,'ain’t you?” “You’re quieker’n-I nnTdn the draw with yore- two guns,” retorted the goaded Russell. “I c’ud lick you one- handed ’thout guns—or any m an' In this crowd,” he blustered in an at­ tem pt to halt his departing prestige. , “Tou-all - had a gun in. yore hand when we’ stahted in,” said Sandy equably- “You’re sorry you swore— •ain't you?” . ' The repeated words, backed byrthe cold gaze, the ready guns,^were merci­ less as probes. • 7 “I apologizes to the lady,” growled Russell. “Now, that’s fine,” said' 1Sandy. “Fine! W estlake, toll you come drlong with me fo’ a spell?” ' v - H e made his way through the open­ ing group. Sam followed with the as­ sayer who now began to realize that Sandy’s interference had established a friendship th at would continue protec­ tive. They m et Mormon, almost pur* pie In the face from suppressed feel­ ings. Young Ed Bailey eyed Sandy with awe and new respect. M iranda Bailey’s attem pt to learn ,exactly what had happened was thw arted by Sandy’s presentation of W estlake. During the Introduction Mormon slipped away. ' maimer of man who had interrupted- liim!1, But this man’s guns were in the holsters, Russell’s weapon-wifls In hand though its muzzle was .tilted sky­ ward.

H e ,saw nO V-5Oman back of the big bulk of'Mormon, keep­ ing Mirafida well away,' not. seeing what was going forward. “To h—I with the lady!” , shouted Russell.1 At his back was only the unarmed assayer. This lean cold-eyed interfersr was a hardy fool who need­ ed a lesson. . H e swept down his gun, thumb to . hammer. ,Two guns grew like magic in Sandy’s hands, read, a message in Sandy’s glance,- he heard the gasp of the crow d.1 W ith his own gun first in the open the stranger had beaten him to the drop and’fire.

If you imagine an onion sliced in half you catch the idea. Call every other layer porphyry, w ith rock .and other dirt’ between. The bottom ' o f - a loop may be deep down or it may1 be miss­ ing altogether, ground away when the valley was gouged out by’ a glacier. There may be other loops beneath it. Soine portions of the loops come to the surface on the hillside1 and you can guess at their dip. But—the gamble lies In this; The ones th at are exposed may or may not carry the gold-bearing veins. This Casey, who made the original strike, did he take out much?” “Ah I understand it,” replied Sandy, “he hits the porphyry, where It’s shal­ ler, or worn off, like you said; An’ he fipds rich pay stuff right away, enough to start the camp. Quite a few Worksi on that outcrop an’, then it peters out.’ Casey sabed .a bit about synclines, I reckon, fo’ he kept faith In the camp, on’y he realized It ’Ud take a heap of money to develop, meanin’ to dig through the porphyry, I Suppose.’ Now they’ve found some mo’ of that float ore that the first crowd overlooked.

"Hovy do we locate? I’ve come this far, an’ TH see the thing through to - some sort of finish. How many claims can we take.up an’ w hat’s the. size of ’em, Mr. W estlake?” The three partners left M iranda and _the engineer m easuring off and setting up their monuments a t the com ers of the claim. They started directly down the side-hill, making fcr the valley, In silence, like men with business ahead of them that called^foc action raither than words. “H ere’s .the situation, as I sabe it,” said Sandy. “Plimsott m et up with P at Casey from tim e to time.

Ever so m.inj canton crepe frocks, absolutely sleeveless, carry out this idea and the eflect is modest and charmingly adapted to summer gown ing. Such is the basic Idea of the lovely silk frock heie Illustrated The bertha effect is there, supplemented with a sheer malines semi-sleeve. The fabric ot which this gown is fashioned is worthy of especial comment in that it carries throughout its weave a drop- stltch which gives the effect of drawn- work, and this is an Item of style advanced this season. Fanciful ’sleeves which' reveal the arm in openings and fantastic slash­ ings are a param ount factor through­ out dress design. Clever ribbon ties find favor in connection with the ab­ breviated sleeve and there-Is no limit to the charming effects which follow.

Saint Joseph, IlL -In speaking, of the good health record of her family, Mrs. Asa G. OUls, of this place, says that for symptoms of torpid liver “the first thing we do Is to take Black- Draught.” • . “It is the best liver tonic I have ever known,” declares Mrs. Ollis, “and the rest of the famUy seem to feel the same' way. They take it for sour stomach, Indigestion and constipation. “Too few people pay enough atten­ tion to constipation, which is the be­ ginning of most ills, but I have used Black-Draught fo r constipation and it regulated me, and I can recommend it for that.” As Mrs., -Ollls so truthfully says, constipation leads to a great deal. of sickness among .those who. do not un­ derstand its dangers, and who neg­ lect prom pt treatm ent. T he poisons which constipation forces your blood to reabsorb may cause much suffer­ ing, and greatly endanger your geh- . eral health. Tltedford’s Black-Draught (purely vegetable) has'been'-found to relieve constipation, and • by stim ulating the action of the liver, when It Is torpid, helps to drive many, poisons out of- your system.

(Prepared by the United Statea Department of Agriculture.) Progress in the “Better Sires—B etter Stbck” campaign broke all previous records, and the' number of live stock owners participating passed the 10,000 m ark during the first three months of 1923, as shown by a report just Issued by the United States Departm ent of Agriculture. A total of 1,177 persons were enrolled during the three-months’ period after having filed with the de­ partm ent w ritten agreements to use purfebred sires exclusively henceforth. This Is the highest number enrolled during any quarterly period since the- campaign began three" and one-half years ago. States showing the prin­ cipal activity In this means of improv­ ing their live stock w ere: Vermont, W est Virginia, Ohio, Virglniat/ Ken­ tucky, W ashington, Nebraska, Texas, and Indiana. The number of live stock and poultry listed for improvement during the -period totaled more th'dn 116,000. Government officials who have been in close touch with the movement since its beginning three and one-half years ago are much gratified with! the latest results. The continued interest being shown In thc"campalgn throughout the country shows the permanent nature' of the popularity of the purebred sire, and points to greater possibilities in the future. The list of persons who are using purebred sires exclusively, now totals- 10,100. These live stock breeders have placed more than 1,200,- 000 head of live stock and poultry on a purebred-sire basis. On an average 35 per cent of the female animals and 69,per cent of the feinale poultry, kept by these persons, are also purebred.' Each year that purebred sires are used by these breeders, therefore, greatly increases the total number of pure­ bred animals in tlie country. Standing of States Changes. During the three-months’ period, Ver­ mont and W est Virginia showed the greatest num ber of enrollments, caus­ ing sonie changes In the relative stand­ ing of the. states active'"In the work. Vermont, which previously stood seventh In the list (and six months ago tenth) is now fifth; while W est Virr ginla surpassed nine states, advancing from seventeenth to eighth place. W est Virginia, where legislation outlawing scrub sires became effective January I, enrolled more than three times as many persons’ during the quarter as during all of the 13 previous quarters. On “Roll of Honor.” Four new counties,. two of them In Vermont, ope In Ohio, and the other in Nebraska, appear on the roll of counties having 100 or more persons using purebred sires exclusively. This brings the total to 20 counties. Rock­ ingham county, Virginia, (Chas. W. W ampler, county agent) led for the quarter with 103 new enrollm ents; while Miami county, Ohio,' (C. M. Senn, county agent) advanced In the county standing from eleventh to fifth- place. Evidence of continued activity dur­ ing the coming months comes 'from various- sources. The ■ demand for en­ rollm ent blanks is unprecedented In the history of the campaign. From Kentucky, which is fourth on the list of states, comes word to the depart­ ment .through W ayland Rhoades, field agent In anim al husbandry, that on May 3 there, will be held a better-slre sale at_B-hIch 100 purebred bulls will be put up at auction, and that officials are planning more things for the fu­ ture.

When the trouble Is- caused by insects, their presence' or evidence of their w ork serves definitely to show the cause of the trouble. W heat seed­ lings attacked by rosette disease alone show no evidence of the presence or w.ork of Insects, it Is pointed out by specialists of the United S tates" De­ partm ent of Agriculture who1 have been investigating these-w heat maladies. The first positive indications of the rosette disease become evident early In the -spring after the growth of the ,healthy plants Is well started. Plants affected by rosette rem ain dorm ant In the spring after -th e healthy plants commence their spring growth. Infest­ ed fields are spotted w ith Irregular patches of dwarfed plants, the leaves of which are dark blue-green In color and are rather broad and stiff. The whole, plant has . a bunchy, rosette ap­ pearance. When both rosette disease and insect injuries, especially those by Hessian fly, occur together In the spring, it sometimes is difficult to determine ac- 'curately the Injuries caused by each. As tfie rosette disease Is not apparent In the autum n and as it becomes evi­ dent In the spring before the emer­ gence of the adult Hessian fly, there is Verir little chance to. confuse the two maladies during these periods. In the late spring, however, there Is a possi­ bility of-confusion, especially if plants affected by rosette show, In addition, the spring Infestation of the Eilesslan fly.

AJter goslings are a month old they, are aftong the hardiest of fowls, but they are rather delicate at first anti should "'have, careful attention. The main thing is to keep them warm and dry the first few weeks, feeding them a little at a time, and often—say four or five times 'a day. One of .the best rations on which to start goslings Is a m ixture of com meal and. shorts, mixed with bread or cracker crumbs, hard boiled eggs chopped fine, etc. It Is also a good plan to provide some tend -.- grass as, a relish right1 from the start. The goose Is essen­ tially a grazing bird, hence grass In Its ration is quite im portant at all times. Other grain food, along with m eat. scraps, should, be ..added to the ration gradually as the goslings grow. M ost people keep goslings- In small movable runs for the. first two weeks, so they can’t run wild but can -be moved to fresh ground each day where . they can- pick grass and bugs. The extent of this ranging space dan be gradually increased until the goslings are a month old, tlien they should be turned out on free range where, they Will find lots of pasturage to make rapid growth. , Geese do not haye to have w ater to swim . In, but at the same time they get lots of enjoyment from it. If a small stream or pond cannot be pro- j vided, then it is quite essential that j the fowls have an abundant supply of good drihking water, which they con­ sume freely. A fter goslings are turned on pas- ‘ ture, if the grass is -,In good condition, It Is not necessary to.feed them grain, more than twice a day at first and later once a day. The first object "should be to get as large a growth of fram e as possible. Let fat come last. To build fram e requires lots bf grass, bugs and worms, and grains like oats and buckwheat that are not especially fattening. , As fall approaches and the' grass be­ gins to fail, com !should be substituted for one of th’e other grains as if Is more fattening. Starting at deast a month before the holiday selling sea­ son, the geese we w ant to sell on m ar­ ket are fed all they will eat of a mix- . ture of corn and oats at first and corn alone later: In fitting geese-tor’ m arket it is hardly possible to make them too fat, as extrem e fatness has no bad effect upon their, table qualities and therefore most people w ant lots of IL—Farm Life. . , ; ; TRe Cross «,<• ? ,rffej s printed’ in Red onevery gemunepackag T T AVE your interior walla tinted . the e x a c t color- Exercise “ your own good taste in just the color tones'to bring out .the best- features of every room.

As Is well known, geese like to dig around In the dirt end then wash their faces in every pall of w ater that IS placed In the yard for the poultry. HJhe geese, will soon empty the pails by dipping their heads deeply in the w ater and throwing It over tiiojr backs until the p»Uls contain only a few inches of dirty water. A steady supply of clean w ater Is im portant for -growing chickens so the geese become anuisanee In the en­ closure. Geese will often, drive 'the poultry away from the dry mash hoppers. As the profit In geese depends on raising them on a'C heap ration largely com-, posed of grass it does notypay to feed them much ,mash during the summer. The best place for geese Is a field near a pond. This gives, the birds plenty of water, They do: not need a body of w ater but It ^aves the work of carrying a lot'of drinking w ater if the geese have their own supply for washing In.

I For ane thing it was evident th at the I principal speculative m arkets were displaying a firmer tone, liquidation of a pressing character having ceased and short selling having considerably improved technical conditionp. Al­ though extreme quietness prevailed during the greater part of the week, I totai sales on the New York stock exchange amounting to only about i half a million shares Friday, this con­ dition was considered a natural re­ sult of recent weakness and some signs of a rallying tendency were noted. For example tihe copper m arket, which has been quiet for some tim e, and has been sagging in sym pathy with prices at London, stopped in its decline and strengthened appreciably. Some ,quarters m aintained this m ar­ ket is now in good position to re­ spond to a resumption of buying as old contracts run out. According to this view, the general reaction in prices is an entirely norm al reflec­ tion of a halt between buying move­ ments. Such observers expect com­ modity prices again to stiffen as pre­ parations are made for the fall trade, fn general, however, the feeling is that it is still too early to judge whether the retent has quite run its course. That the effect on the'general level of the falling prices which have been holding the attention of the business conittninKy will be less than might k expected is areued on the basis ofthe behavior of the index publish’ ed by the department of labor. The department's index for all commodi- ies during April is unchanged as com­ pared with March. Aside from a re­ action in coal prices and dhose ol arm pdoucts, all of th e indlvH ual groups of the index -were .higher. . It was pointed out th at tihe increases have taken place in those commo­ dities in which labor costs play a large part and it' was assum ed on this basis that recent wage advances will be a sustaining factor.

A sserting that probably fourfifths of the textile m achinery now being, m anufactured in the United States is intended for installation in southern plants, C. E. Hutchison, president of the association, Mount Holly, N. C., declared that one of the greatest needs of the industry at the present tim e is southern plants for the con­ struction of m achinery and repair parts. Mr. H utchison said it had been estim ated that replacem ent demands of .southern m ills soon would require m ore-than a million spindles annually. In an address before the conven­ tion .during a them atic discussion of “A State’s Duty to IJs Industries,” Governor Thomas G. McLeod, of South ’Carolina, urged the perfection of a system of financing consistent with the economic changes which he said were being made in this country. • , “Unless in the great economic changes that are going on in .this country," Governor McLeod said, "some system is: perfected and prop­ erly effected by the financial interests of the country consistent with that system , .the country a t large is going to pay the price, not only in the crip­ pling of. industries but in tfib loss of its oral stam nia and in the future of- its governm ent. T here is something woefully wrong, there is som ething th at .dem ands your careful study as great economists, in any system that can m ultiply in exchange any crop or any necessity to the extent that the New York and New Orleans cot­ ton exchanges have m ultiplied the sales of cotton.”^ , Urging the manufacturers to seek closer co-operation with the cotton fanner, r t o lie termed “a partner in ing 14 men of foreign countries, cap­ tive In the Paotzuku hills of Shan­ tung, according to official reports is­ sued by the Chinese m ilitary authori­ ties here.

W ashington.—Increased demands for all classes of skilled labor,, skilled me­ chanics and farm hands have practic­ ally put an end to unemployment In every section of the country the report- m ent of labor reported in an analysis overing conditions during April. - “The predicted shortage of compe­ tent farm labor,” the report said, “is now already a fact, and in many sec­ tions of the country the farm ing in­ terests are being severely ham pered by the Jnabillty to secure' labor for farm work. In the south and south­ west where heretofore there has al­ ways been a sufficient supply they are experiencing for the first time a situ­ ation which is causing alarm, as large numbers of men who have always worked on the farm have m igrated to the large cities of the country, secur­ ing immediate em ploym ent in .the var­ ious industries which are having trouble to find sufficient labor to meet their demands. ) ' 1 “Indicative' of the. country’s sound industrial condition is the fact that a large percentage of the public em­ ployment .offices report that it soon will be impossible to m eet the grow­ ing demand for certain classes of labor".” ; Tbe s m i M increased ac- tivity in the metal mining industry ber mills, aid Io building and con- struction lines which had the effect, of curtailing operations affecting em­ ployment in the iron and steel indus­ try continue to improve, and in some of the laiger centers shortages of cer­ tain classes of htis labor are evident.” This information^ assembled by the departm ent’s employment service from 1,428 firms ,was supplemented by Oth­ er figures concerning the volume of employment during April, compiled by the bureau of labor statistics from re- ports made by 5,651 representative establishments In 43 manufacturing in­ dustries. The bureau’s summary said the establishments' covered by it had re­ ported increases during April over March of one-half of one per cent in the num ber of employes, 1.4 per cent in the total amount paid in wiges, and nine-tenths of one per cent in the average weekly earnings.

A telephone message, .quot­ ing a policeman who said he was at -the scene, said the school. building was completely destroyed and that not less than sixty men, women and child­ ren were burned or crushed to death in the panic. * Camden, S. C.—According to a report received here 73 lost their lives In a fire th at ^destroyed the Cleveland school house while an entertainm ent was in progress. Cleveland is only eight m iles from Camden, but owing to apparent confusion in the form er town efforts -to obtain'accurate infor­ m ation as to the reported disaster were fruitless. / The telephone operator confirmed the rpport of a heavy loss of life but could give few details. She informed .questioners she was “exhausted from putting up. calls.” The Cleveland operator previously had said the disaster had resulted from the overturning of an oil lamp on the stage. The flames spread quickly and in a few m inutes the interior, of the fram e building w as-a scene of horror. The narrow stairw ay leading to the second floor where the - entertainm ent was being held was quickly jam pied, the operator said, and scores jemped from the windows. This accounts for m any of the injured: The phone operator-said calls for doctors and nurses had been sent to Columbia and other places. It is reported from the hospital here where Beveral of the 'victims have been taken that the loss of life will not be less than thirty. ^According to Dr. West, at the hos­ pital here, only five injured have been brought here but it is certain that among the dead are S.

I E I I > I \i I 1IK I IV t *»/ "SUN-UP TERMORRER!” SYNOPSIS.—To tho , Three-Bar ranch, Arizona, owned ’ jointly by Sandy Bourke, "‘Mormon’* Peters and "Soda-Water Sam" Manning, a fine collie makes its way. Bourke and Sam mount and let the dog lead them. The two find a dying man, Patrick Casey, pinned under an overturned wagon. Kneeling beside the wagon is his young daughter, Molly, fifteen. They ex­ tricate the old prospector, who dies repeating "Molly—mines!” ‘TH look out for that, pardner," says Sandy. It is agreed that Molly ,stays as irtascot of the ranch, she and the "Three Musketeers” be­ coming partners in the mines. Jim Plimsoll Jgambler, visiting the ranch, insults Molly. He claims he grubstaked Casey, which made him the old man’s partner. Mormon drives him off. Starting with- a gold eagle, Molly’s luck piece, Sandy, with- Sam, plays faro at Plimsoll's place, winning $10,000. It is arranged that Molly shall go East to be "eddicated." A neigh­ bor, Miranda Bailey, warns the ranchers that Jim Plimsoll, as Patrick Casey’s "partner,” claims guardianship of Molly, and the au­ thorities stand in with him. Sandy determines to take the girl to New Mexico, to an old friend; Barbara Redding, for advice. The three men, with the girl, set out. Pur­ sued by the ^sheriff and Plimsoll, the ranchers separate. Mormon and Sam returning, and Sandy and Molly going on. The two are caught in a pass by a cloudburst, during which Sandy saves Molly’s life. Sandy returns, announcing that Molly has been sent East to school. A party of riders, headed by a man named Brandon visits the Three-Bar, announcing their sus­ picions of Jim Plimsoll’s conduct of his horse ranch. Gold is struck at Dynamite, where Molly’s claim is located. Plimsoll claims the Casey mine. Sandy and his two friends, with Miranda Bailey, pro­ ceed to Dynamite. They find Plim­ soll conducting a gambling place. Sandy rescues a young assayer, Clay Westlake, from a bully. West­ lake says indications are that the . strike will pan out well. Plimsoll has jumped Molly’s claims. B y ; J . A L L A N D U N N Author of “A M/m to Bis Mate," etc. Copyright, 1922, by 3. Allan Dnnn CHAPTER XII—Continued. —10— Sandy, with Mormon and Slim, stood Jnst above the group on the narrow bench that furnished the floor for the tent. Sandy’s hands rested lightly on his hips,, his thumbs booked in his belt, fingers grazing the butts of Iiis guns. There was a smile on his lips but none in his eyes. H is tone and m anner were easy. “Saw his- stencil on the tent,” he said. “J. P. In a diamond. Same brand he uses' fo’ his haw sses., Or mebbe you found it.” H is drawling voice held a taunt that brought angry flushes of color to the ’faces of the men opposing him, yet they made no definite movement toward attack. There w ere seven against three but, when the odds are " so big and the minority faces them with a readiness and an assurance that shows In their eyes; on their lips, vi­ brates from their compacted alliance, the m easure is one of will, rather than physical and merely numerical su­ periority, and the balance , beam quivers undecidedly. " One of the crowd blustered. ‘Tm giving you men two minutes to clear out of here,” be. said. “No two-gunned qowpuneher can throw any bluff round here, if that’s w hat you’re trying to do.” - , Sandy laughed -joyously. T he smile was In his eyes now. VIf -T-Agger- a man’s throwin’ a . bluff,” he said, “I usually Agger to call ' him ,-hot to chew about it. Now, I’m stalkin’. These claims are duly regis-. tered In the name of Patrick Casey, his heits ah’ assign. H.ere’s the pa­ pers. The assessment work is all done. P at’s daughter owns ’em now. We’re representin’ her.. An’ I’m servln’ you notice to quit. We’ll take the same two minutes you was talkin’ of, Then staht- yore li’t 1 demonstration, gents, pro.vldin- I. don’t beat you to it.” He started to roll a cigarette with hands skillful and steady. Back of him Sam and Mormon stood like dogs on point, watchful, uhmoVing, but instinct .with suppressed motion. - The girl may be his heir,” said the man who had spoken, “but Plimsoll is assignee. Plimsoll staked him an’ tugse. claims are half-his.” “So J. P. was liirin’ you to do his dirty work,” said Sandy, his voicevcdld with contempt. “You go back to him, the Whole lousy pack of you, an’ tell him from me he’s, a yellow-spined liar. Git! -Take yore stuff with you or send back fo’ it. Now, git off ibis properly.” If a man can make movements with his hands so swiftly that they are cov­ ered In less than a tenth of a-second, ordinary human sight cannot register them. He has achieved the magician’s slogan—the quickness of the hand Mer ceives the eye. It takes natural apti­ tude and long practice, w hether one Is juggling gilded balls or blued-steel re­ volvers. Sandy could, with a circling movement of his w nsts, draw hls guns’ from their holsters and bring them to bear directly upon the target to wh’cli his eyes shifted. Glance, tw ist of wrist, arrest of motion, pressure of finger, a ir co-ordinated. O nem om ent his hands were empty, his glance care­ lessly contemptuous, the veriest move­ ment of a- split-second stop-watch and the gun In his right hand spat fire, the - gun In.his left swung In an a rt that, menaced the five card players. The other ^wo were struggling be­ neath the crumpled folds of a col­ lapsed tent, wriggling frtntically like the stage hands who Blmulate braves by crawling beneath painted canvas. Sandy had\ shattered the pegs that held up the upper com ers of the tent on the slope, had cut the cords of the remaining guys on that- side and the structure had swayed and collapsed. Sam and Mormon had lined up now with Sandy. There was no mistaking; their intention to use their guns. But the ’exhibition had been quite suffi­ cient. W ith one accord the men raised their hands shoulder high and began to shuffle down the hill, regardless of their equipment, which, having been paid for-by Plimsoll, they regarded as of much less value than the necessity for departure. “Scattered like a bunch of coyotes,” said Sam. ' “Sure did,” agreed Sandy. “Minute they stahted talkin’, ’stead of shootin’, I knew they was ready to stampede. They’ll beat it to Plimsoll-an’ we’ll see jest how much sand he’s “got in his craw.” “Think Piim’ll show ?” asked Sam. “Got to—or quit,” said Sandy. “That bunch of jum pers he got together’!) spill the beans unless he makes some play. Let’s take a pasear an’ look at Casey’s workings.” Patrick Casey had run in a tunnel from the face of his discovery. Its mouth had been closed by tim bers fit­ ting closely into the fram e of the hori­ zontal shaft, forming, not so much a door, as a barricade, that had been firmly spiked to heavy timbers. This had been recently dismantled and then replaced, as recent m arks on the weathered lumber showed. Sandy looked at these places closely, frown­ ing as he gave his verdict. “Some one monkeyin’ with this in­ side of the last month,” he announced. “Like as not it was that bunch of-East­ erners. They’d figger the camp was abandoned an’ consider themselves justified as philanthropists into bu’stin’ open anything th at looked good—like this .tunnel. Yes, sir,” Sandy went on, warming to his own theory, “it w’udn’t surprise me if this warn’t ’ the mine they sampled which Plimsoll finds out is the real stuff an’ clamps on.” “Well,” said Mormon, “we’ll have a chance to ask him in a minute. H e’s cornin’ up with that crowd of his rangin’ erlong an’ their ha’r liftin’.” The three partners met the Jumpers, now headed by Plimsoll, on the border of Uie claims. The gambler’s face w as livid. “Yon four-flushers get off this ground,” he blustered. “You’re claim­ ing to represent Molly Casey’s rights after you’ve kidnaped the girl and sent her out of the state., It won’t get you anywhere or anything. I’ve got a half interest In these claims and I’ve plenty of witnesses to prove it.” “I don’t believe yore witnesses are half as vallyble as they might have been before politics shifted in Herefo'd county,” said Sandy. “You ain’t got a w ritten contract’ an’ It w’udn’t do you a m ite of good if you had, fur as I’m concerned. Because FVe been duly an’ legally app’inted, guardeen to Casey’s daughter Molly an’ I’m here .to repre­ sent her Interests, likewise mine. I’ve got. my guardianship papers right with me.” “A h—I of a lot of good they’ll do you In this camp,v sneered' Plimsoll. “Representin’ her interests. I’ll say you are, an’ your own along with ’em.” A - laugh from his followers heartened him. “If the camp ever The Quickness of the Hand Deceives the Eye. hears the yam of your running off with the girl and now, with lier tucked away, coming back to clean up. I’ve a notion they’d show -you four-flushers where you’ve sat In to the wrong game. - Why •. . Something In Sandy’s face stopped him. It became suddenly devoid of all expression, became a -thing of stone opt of which blazed two gray eyes and a voice* Issued from lips that barely moved. ■ * “I’ve got a notion, too, Plimsoll; A notion that it 'ud be a good day’s work to Shoot you fo’ a foul-mouthed, Jyin*, stealln’ crook! .You've called m e a fo’-flushei twice, an* the on’y way, to -prove a 'fo’-flusher lB to cali fo’-a show­ down. Tm doin’ I t” The words came cold and even,- backed by a grim earnestness that im­ printed itself on the lesser m anhood' of the jum pers as a finger leaves its print in clay. ’They shifted back a little from Plimsoll, circling out as they might have moved from a man. m arked by pestilence. He stood trying to outface Sandy, to keep his eyes steady. • • . “You pack yore gun under yore coat- flap,” said Sandy. “I don’t know-how quick you con draw but I aim to find out.” He handed one of his pwn guns to Mormon, announcing his action lest Plimsoll might m istake it. “Now, then,” he went on, “I once told you I looked to you to stop any gossip about Molly C asey.. Same tim e Butch Parsons an’ Sim Hahn got huht. You don’t seem able to sabe plain talk an’ I’m tired of talkin’' to you, Jim Plimsoll. Me, I’m go in’, to jo ll me a cigarette. Any time you w ant to you can draw. I’m givin’ you the aidge on me. If you don’t take that aidge, Jim Plimsoll, I’m givin' you till sun-up' ter- m orrer mornin’ to git plumb out of camp. An’ to keep driftin’.” Deliberately Sandy took tobacco- sack and papers from the pocket of his shirt, his fingers functioning auto­ m atically, precisely, his eyes never shifting from Plimsoll’s face, measur­ ing by feel the amount of tobacco shaken into the little trough of brown paper. -. The group gazed at him fascinated. Plimsoll’s face beaded with tiny drops of sweat, his hands moved slowly up­ w ard toward his coat lapels, touched them as Sandy twisted the end of the cigarette, stayed there, shaking slight­ ly with w hat might have been eager­ ness—or paralysis. For the look in the steel-gray eyes of Sandy Bourke, half mocking, all confident, spurred the doubts that surged through the gam­ bler’s chance-calculating mind, while he knew that every atom of hesitation lessened his chances. His own hands were close to his chest. H is right had but a few inches to dart, to drag the autom atic from its smooth holster. Sandy's hands were high above his belt, rolling the ciga­ rette. They had four times as far to go. However, Plimsoll knew that if anything went wrong w ith his perform­ ance, if he failed to kill outright, that nothing would go wrong with Sandy’s shooting. But—if he did not take his chance and, falling It, did not leave camp. . . . “Gimme a match, Sam.” Sandy’s voice came to Plim soll. across a gulf that could never be bridged. H e watched the flame, pale in the sun­ shine, watched it lift to the cigarette and then a puff-of smoke came into his face as Sandy flung away the burnt stick and turned on. his heel. M urder stirred dully In Plimsoll’s brain at th e sneers he surmised rather than read on the faces of his. followers. H is de­ feat w as also theirs. B ut the moment had gone. H e knew he lacked the nerve. Sandy knew it and had turned his back on him. H is prestige was. gone. H is boon companions would talk about if. Mor­ mon gave. Sandy back his second gun and Sandy slid it into the holster. He exhaled the last puff of his cigarette before he spoke again to Plimsoll. “Sun-up, ter-morrer. You can send fo’ yore stuff here any, tim e you’ve a mind to. Fo’ a gamblin’ man, Plimsoll, you’re a d—d pore judge of a hand.”. Plimsoll strode off down the ,hill alone. The men who had come with him hesitated and then crossed,, the gulch. They had severed connections with the J. P. brand for the time,, at least. The three partners walked back' toward' the tunnel. - “We got to stay on the claims,” said Sam. “If they happened to think of it they might heave a. stick of dyna­ m ite in our midst afteh It’s good an’' dahk. A'flyin’ chunk of dynamite is a nasty thing to dodge, at that.” " • “I don’t think it likely, Sam. Camp knows, or will know, what’s been hap­ penin’. If dynamite-was thrown they’d sabe who did it an’ I don’t believe the crowd ’ud stand for it. I w’udn’t won­ der if Jim Plimsoll forgets to send fo’ that tent an.’ stuff of his. ’ Hope he fines.” W hat do we ■ w ant with It?” de­ manded Mormon, . ' “Nothin’,"with the stuff. W e’ll set If out beyond the lines come dusk.' But the tent’ll come In handy. W e didn’t bring one erlong.” “You don’t aim fo’ us to sleep in it, do you?” asked Mormon. , “Don’t believe, we’d rest ,well if we tackled it.- B ut it mightn’t be a bad scheme If we give the gen’ral idee that we .are sleepm’ in it. I put a lantern in the ear when we stahted. - Fetch that erlong too, will you, Mormon?” It was late afternoon -before Mor­ mon reappeared, bearing a camp out­ fit, part ofw hich w as carried by W est­ lake. Sandy and Sam had repitched the tent on fairly level ground of the valley bottom, Mormon’s eyebrows went -up a t the location w ith . which Sandy/and Sam, seated cross-legged on the ground, one smoking, the other draining low harmonies through his mouth organ, appeared perfectly satis! fled. _“Why on the flat?” asked Mormon. “There’s a heap of cover round here where they might spake up afteh dahk -■ • ... -I ant sling anythin' they minded to at us, from lead to giant pow deh!” “Wal,” drawled Sandy, flicking the ash from his cigarette, “it’s handy to watch, .fo’ one thing, an’ yore right about' that coveh, Mormon. T hat’s why we chose it.” ■ MormOn sat down his load and took off his hat to scratch his head per­ plexedly. Then his face lightened as he looked up-hill. “You figger on settln’ the lantern In here afteh d alik".he said. “An* watcb- in’ the fun from the tunnel.” “P ritty close, Mormon. Come inside, you an’ W estlake, an’ I’ll show you suthin’.” • ** They followed him Into the tent and came out again laughing. • CHAPTER XIII A Rope Breaks. The lantern, turned .down, dimly Il­ lumined the tent and revealeS the figr. ures qf three' men seated about some sort of rough table. The flap was drawn and fastened.

No passer-by would have guessed th at the. three partners were ensconced in the black mouth of the tunnel, ram parted by the dump heap, watching for develop­ m ents they w ere fairly, sure would start with darkness. Every • little while Sandy tw itched a line that was; attached to a clumsy but effective rocker he had contrived beneath one of the dummies , they had built from the stuff- th a t Plim soll had not re­ claimed. ,“Don’t want! to work the blamed thing too much,” he said. “Might bu’at it. It’s on’y the one figger but Fll be dem ed if it don’t look natcherul.” A fter which they all relapsed into, silence, restrained from smoking for fear of a telltale spark or casual fra­ grance carried by the wind. It w as a dark night, the hillsides stood blurry against a blue-black sky in which the stars guttered like m etal points but failed to shed much light. Later, much later, tow ard morning, a moon would rise. They settled down to their watch. The Great ,Bear constellation dipped down, scooping info the darkness be­ yond the opposing' hill. "Pritty close to midnight,” said Sarp at last, “W hat’s the . . .” Sandy’s grip on. his arm checked him, all senses centering into listening. The' three stared blankly Into the night, while their hands sought gun butts and loogened the weapons in their holsters. Out of the blackness; came little foreign sounds that they interpreted according to their powers. The tiny clink of metal, the faint thud, of horses' hoofs, an exclamation that had- barely been above the speaker’s breath floated up to them through the stillness.- The glow of. the lantern showed through the tent wall. ' They crouched, listening to the soft padded so u n d s'th at told of the ap­ proach of man and horse. These ceased. Still they coUld see nothing. Then there came a sharp shrill whistle, answered from the levels. Followed instantly the thud of galloping-ponies, going at top speed, parallel, one be­ tween the w atchers and the tent as they saw., the sw ift shadow, shade the glow for an instant, the other between the tent and the creek. There w as a sharp swishing ps of something whip­ ping brush.. “Yi-yi-yippy I” The cries rang out exultant as the horses- dashed , by the tunnel. The light In the tent wavered, went out. There w as a shout of sur­ prise and dismay, a .tw ang like the snapping of a mighty bow-string and then came, the whoops of the trio from the Three Star as they realized w hat .the attem pt had been-and how it had failed. “It’s gettin’ erlong to’ards sun- -up, fast as a clock can tick.” (Tp BE CONTINUED I Use for Cold Potato.

W ASHINGTON, D.

" The M fth District-, comprising the D istrict of Columbia, M aryland, North Carolina, South Carolina,; "Virginia and W est Virginia, was represented by Howard T- Oree of Richmond,' Va., the Savings Diirectdr for the district, who appears a t the extrem e' left of the president in the above picture. Mr. Cree. w ent to W ashington with- sales figures for .ttie district which showed th at-la st year the people of this district invested alm ost 10 tim es vas m uch in these securities as in the year previous, more thsin 10 million dollars having.been, invested;-and the district exceeding.its Quota by nearly thye'e-quarters of a m illion dollars. . Lew .Wallace, Jr;, National Director of Sayings, urged the -district direc­ tors to so hack home ftnd exert every influence and effort to increase the sal© 7of' Govetninent Savings Securi­ ties In order to minimize the loss from w orthless investm ents. Mr. .W allace told the directors -that there, were m any "land pirates” these days—“the pirates of finance."

Though only half the chicks hatched in Missouri are raised' to maturity, most of the. losses ■ are preventable, according to if. A. Seaton of the Mis­ souri College of Agriculture. At the present tim e under ordinary farm conditions the colony system of brooding chicks is preferable. The -temperature Sliould be about IQO de­ grees Fahrenheit when , the chicks, are placed in the brooder, and then grad-, ually decreased to suit the need of, the chicks. If ample room is supplied the chicks will regulate their heat by either crowding closer to the stove or by moving away. An abundant supply of clean, fresh w ater should be kept before the chicks at all times in some form of suitable drinking fountains. Do not put the w ater in , an open vessel, such as a saucer, or tl'ie chicks will get into It and become chilled. Feeding is a very im portant factor in chick raising. Do not feed the chick until it is fifty hours old or old­ er, as the yolk is taken into the chick’s body just before it is hatched and so ample food is present for some time. The first feed should be composed of a few grains of clean sand ■ or fine chick grit, fed in a flat paff ;or spread on a cardboard.'- This should be fol­ lowed with a feed of rolled oats and bread crumbs, and for the first few days of the chick’s life they should be given three or four feeds of rolled oats and one feed of hard-boiled eggs: The. rolled oats should gradually be replaced with some form of grain mix­ ture, 'either comnieal, chick food' or any form of fine grain mixture. A dry mash composed of equal weights of bran, cornmeal and shorts should be added to the ration at th^ end of the first week. This mash should be fed sparingly at first and then grad­ ually Increased. Feed little and often, and feed alt the feed In a dry form. Milk is £n excellent feed-for chicks and they should be fed abundant sup­ ply of it at all times. It prevents many intestinal diseases, supplies vl- tamines and also is a good source of protein, which is necessary, in chick rations. PAYS TO CANDLE EVERY EGG SOME CAUSES OF LAMENESS Rough Activities on P art of Male Bird Sometimes BIamM l-M ay Be Due to ' Rheumatism. A bird may • be lamed, apparently from rough activities on the part of the male birds In the flock. Lameness may also be due to rheumatism caused by dampness and exposure. Lameness accompanied by rapid emaciation Is often'a sign of tuberculosis. The spots on-the. liver are also a : symptom. A laboratory examination Is necessary to definitely' determine If fowls have tuberculosis. . PO U LTR Y H IN TS When milk is used as the sole drink for chickens no other animal protein is necessary. » * * " Poultry raisers who produce capons for'm arket should juse judgment as to thV breed, of'chickens used for this pur­ pose. Leghorns and.' similar small breeds, which are essentially egg Iay- ■ers, should hot be used. **.«.. ■ The young poults should be fed when forty-teight' hours old.- Eggs, corn- -bread and clabbered milk, with hard- boiled eggs occasionally, is a . good starting feed. They should have fresh water,^ charcoal and" 'g rit,- or sand Ehoaid be scattered in the pen.* * * ; -Ducks and geese are quite similar in •their nature, and Jhe same; general rules apply pretty much to both.* * * it certainly is a fact that tha early- batched chicks-get a gocid start, , and therefore are better able to stand the hot weather, when it comes. . * *. •* . The brooding of baby. Chicks is re­ garded too lightly by many. Very oft­ en it is due to lack, of thought on tlie part of the attendant, while again it is the uttevlack.. of. knowledge of tbo fundamental, principles involved . Testing May Be Done W ith Much Ac­ curacy by Passing Electric Light Under Tray. Poultrymeri have learned It pays to candle every egg that'goes into the in­ cubator. If only a few eggs are to be Incubated, each one can be candled separately,, but the breeder of many chicks does not always have'tim e for this. Instead of . candling them In the rush to get all the incubators going he often piles In the eggs and takes a chance on their, being fertile. Every infertile egg takes up space that could be used In incubating a good" egg. Candling may be done with a fair de­ gree of accuracy by passing an electric light, bulb under the tray after the eggs h.ave been put in the. Incubator, infertile or stale dggs may be detect­ ed in this way. This is not to be rec­ ommended if tim e will perm it thorough candling* but It Is better {han'-using uncandled eggs. 1923, WiBtern Newspaper Uplon.)

FOOD MEASUREMENTS As a calorie is tha_fo6d measure­ ment for the' amount ofnfeat .or energy which our food yields S wlien boned or con-, sumed by our bodieB, I t ; " should be as fam iliar a term as an inch or a i quart. A calorie is the amount of food heat/ it j. takes to' raise the tem- \ perature of a pouiid of ■water four degrees. Dietitians differ as to the amount of calories needed daily by the adult. To take the most conservative the amount ranges from twenty-five hun­ dred to thirty-seven hundred. An In­ active woman will need the minimum, an active out-of-door man will take thirty-seven hundred and more. We will accept thest: figures just as we do ; the amount of material needed t o ' make a dress or Atiit; the amount varies with the size of "the individual. It ts unnecessary for the average person j to accurately weigh his food; we may I learn a few standard calories or m eas-; urements and very quickly lesjm to ! gauge the amouflt one should eat by training the eye. A calorie is the amount of heat- pro­ duced when food Is used or burned by the body; It Is a measure—an inch, a pint or any simple kind of measure. Ju st as the trained fireman knows just how much a given hmount of coal wm produce in heat or steam pressure, so our bodies, being engines, will give off heat and energy meas­ ured by calories. A calorie measure of heat will raise a pound of w ater four degrees F. or lift one ton of weight one and one-half feet. One large popover, three-fourths of a muffin, combread tw<5 by two inches, slice of Boston brown bread three- fourths of an Inch thick, two small baking powder biscurts, two slices of bread or toast, all one hundred cal­ ories. If we are to eat three thousand cal­ ories daily we distribute them over the three meals. Usually the break­ fast is the lightest meal with most people. One large orange, one large banana, a baked apple without sugar —all are one hundred calories. From the above list one may choose a bnsakfast giving eight hundred to a thousand calories. In considering the amount of food needed for tlie body we m ust remem­ ber to lay by a suiplus for fighting disease, as reserve and resistance of the body to sudden attacks is very, important. A system , weakened through underfeeding if attacked by typhoid or pneumonia is almost sure- to succumb to the disease. I *£ MOTHER:. Fletcher’s Castoria is a pleasant, harmless.

Allan Dnnn 0 § 3 G 6 8 8 0 5 CHAPTER Xlll—Continued. —11— T w o riders, trailing a rope, had raced down the valley hoping to sweep away the tent, to send its occupants sprawling, its contents scattered in a confusion, of which advantage would be taken to chase the three off their claims, taken by surprise, made ridicu­ lous. ' ; Sandy and Sam, searching for a con­ venient tent site, had happened upon a mass of outcrop, overgrown by brush. .Over this they had pitched the tent, using the roefc-for table, propping their dummies about it. If dynamite was flung it would find something to work against. They had not antici­ pated the use of the rope to demolish the cauvas, any more than the two riders had expected to bring up against a boulder. The impact, with their ponies spurred, urged on by; their shouts to their limit, tore the cinches of one saddle loose, jerked it from the horse and catapulted the unprepared rider over its head, flying through the •air to land heavily, while his mount. Unencumbered, frightened, went ca­ reering off leaving its breathless mas­ ter stunned amid the sage. As the cinches had given way at one end, the line itself had parted at the other. Tbe second pony had stum­ bled sidewise, rolling before the man w as free from the saddle. They could hear it thrashing In the willows, the rider cursing as he tried_to remount while Sandy ran cat-footed down the hill, leaving Mormon and Sam to handle the other. The two found their man groaning and limp. “Don't believe he’s bu’sted any­ thing,” announced Sam, “ 'less he’s druv his neck Inter his shoulders. Got his saddle, Mormon?” “Yep, W ant the.rope?” They trussed their captive with the lariat still snubbed to his saddle-horn. Down in the willows there was a flash, a report, a scurrying flight punctuated by an oath almost as vivid as the shot. Sandy came up the hill toward them. ' “Miss him?” asked Mormon. "It was sure flahk,” said Sandy, “and I hated to plug the hawss. So I only took one shot to cheer him on his way. H e was mountin’ at the tim e an’ it was a snapshot. I aimed at the seat of his pants. I w’udn’t be sur­ prised but w hat he’s ridin’ so’t of one­ sided. Who you got here? .Tote him downhill. I don’t believe they bu’sted the lantern. We’ll take a look at him.” Sandy retrieved the lantern from the collapsed canvas and lit it. Mor­ mon and Sam took the senseless man down to the creek, where they at­ tempted to revive him by pouring-Iiat- - fuls of the icy w ater on his head. He was a black-haired chap, sallow of face, clean-shaven. His clothes were those of a cowman. “Looks a heap like a drowned rat,’ said Mormon. “It’s Sol W yatt, one of Plim’s riders oveli to his hawss ranch. He got fired from the Two-Bar-Circle fo’ leavln* his ridin’ Iron to home an’ Ushi’ anotheh brand. Leastwise, that’s w hat they suspected.. He’s sniffin' Sandy; . what we goin 'to do with him?” “Take him up inter camp, soon's he’s able to walk an’ hand him over to Plimsoll with OurvCompliinents.

Sam prodded him gently in the ribs. “W ake up, Sol,” he said. “Come back to earth, you sky-salqtin’ circus-rider. You sure looped the loops ’fore vou lit. Glt up !” W yatt gasped and sat up, grinning foolishly. “W liat'happened?” he asked. “Nothin’,” answered Sandy. “Jest nothin’. How’s yore haid?” “Some tender.” “It ain’t In first-rate condition or . yon w’udn’t be drnwin’ pay. from Pllm- soll. Yore saddle’s here, yore hawss went west.

I don’t flgger we’ll be jumped ag’in befo’ mdmlng. E f we are, why, we’ll have to start the arguments all over.” “I w’udn’t be surprised,” said the philosophic W yatt, gingerly pressing his head with .his fingertips, “but what there is a gen’ral Impression ’stab lished by this time that you three hombres from the Three Star are rlghl obstinate abqut considerin’ this vorfc property.” “You leavln’ camp with Plfmsoll in the roomin'?” Mormon asked casually. “I heard some rumor about his hit tin’ the sunrise trail,” said W yatt. “Ef be goes, I stay.’ Pm at I!’I fed up on Jlm PllmsoU Iatelyv H e pulls too much on his picket Une to suit me.

Behind him walked Sandy. “He’s a cool sort of a cuss," said Sam to Mormon. “I reckon he’s a bad actor, but’ there’s sure somethin’ erbout the galoot I like. H e ain't over fond of Plimsoll, that’s a sure thing. If he is workin’ fo’ him. Wonder why?” “They tell me,” replied Mormon, “thet Plimsoll’s ap t to be fond of the Silence Held.

I w’udn’t wondeh but what that was the trouble,” As they entered the street of the camp Sandy moved up even with W yatt and locked arm s with 1dm. ‘I ain’t goin’ ter make no break,” said W yatt. “Here’s Plim’s .. Jest you let me go. in ahead through the door. I’ve seen you use your guns. I ain’t suicidin’.” They allowed him to go in first, un­ escorted. Their plans held no further reprisal against W yatt. CHAPTER XIV A Free-for-AII. Plimsoll IiUd set up a working part­ nership with a man who had brought moonshine and bootlegged whisky to the camp, occupying the next shack to the gambling place. For convenience of service extra doors had been cut and a rough-boarded passageway erected between the fwo places, Plim­ soll himself presided, over the stud- poker table, dealing the game. He waited the result of his play with W yatt and the. latter’s companions. W yatt and his fellow rider had been detailed to ride down, the tent that had been reported occupied by the Three Star owners. Tliat part of the plan had been suggested by W yatt out of the sheer deviltry of his invention, I’Umsoil had enlisted others of his fol­ lowing, none too fearless, to loiter in the brush and, in the general confu­ sion, fire to cripple and to kill. Plimsoll had learned of the visit of the men who had come with Bill Bran­ don to investigate PlimsoU’s methods of running the W aterline horse ranch. He had learned, through the leakage that always occurs In a cattle com­ munity, that Brandon claimed to be an old acquaintance of Sandy and his partners. So he had told his men who had. come with him to the camp from the W aterline ranch that the Three Star outfit was a danger to all of them, undoubtedly acting as spies for Bran­ don, and that they should be eliminated for the general good. But there was none of them, from Plimsoll down, who had any fancy to stand up against the guns of 'Sandy, or of Mormon and Sam, when the breaks were 'anywhere nearly even. . 'Plimsoll, with his ejection. from Hereford, the advent of woman suf­ frage, the coming of Brnnflon and otjier Irate horse owners, hud begun to realize that his days were getting short in the land. He looked to the camp for n final coup. If ho held the Casey claims and sold them. a? he ex­ pected to do, to an E astern capitalist days before, lie Klglit re-establish him­ self. Sandy’s prompt arrival and sub­ sequent events had crimped that ,plan and he fell back upon fill the crooked tactics tJtat he possessed In gambling. Ar.:! now, if W yatt . . . i Ie was dealing the last card around -.hen W yatt came in, and his eyes lit up. Then his face stiffened, the light changed to a gleam of malevolence. Following W yatt were the three part­ ners, faking open order as they came through the entrance, about which, the space was clear, Sandy in the middle, Mormon on the right flank and Sam on the left. The two last smiled and nodded to one or two acquaintances. Sandy’s face w as set in serious cast. Tlie players at Plimsoll’s table turned to see w hat caused the suspeision of the game, others followed tfeir ex­ ample. The Three Star men were known personally to some of those In the room. The story of what had hap­ pened during the day had buzzed In everybody’s ears, from Roaring Rus­ sell’s discomfiture to Plimsoll’s failure to hold the claims and the eviction no­ tice served on him by Sandy. Chairs edged back,- the standing moved for a better viewpoint, the room focussed on Plimsoll, W yatt and the three cow-ehums. Then W yatt stepped aside. There was a malicious little grin on his face. Mormon’s sugges­ tion as to his private grudge against Plimsoll was not without foundation. W yatt bad been glad to find excuse, for severing relations with the gam­ bler. He had done his best and failed, but his failure was not bitter. The partners walked between the tables toward Plimsoll who sat regard­ ing them balefully, his teeth just showing between his'pnrted lips, cards in midair, action in a paralysis that w as caused by the concentration forced by Sandy’s even gaze, by the same sickening, conyiction that his manhood shriveled in front of Sandy and that Sandy knew it. The placing of bets ceased, there w as no sound of clicking chips, the roulette dealer held the wheel, expectant, dealer and case- keeper at the faro bank halted their manipulations, the presiding genius of the craps layout picked up the dice. Tragedy hovered,: the shadow of its wing was on the dirt floor of the rude Temple of Chance. “The chaps you sent up to move yore tent an’ truck didn’t make a good job of it, Plimsoll,” drawled Sandy. ‘I reckon they warn’t the right so’t of help. Ef. you-all are aimin’ to take that stuff erlong with you I’d recom­ mend you ’tend to it yorese’f. It’s get- tin’ erlong to’ards sunup, fast as a clock can tick.” Silence held. Sandy stood noncom­ m ittal, at ease. H is conversation with Plimsoll might have been of the friend­ liest nature gauged by his attitude. I-Iis hands were on his hips. Back of him, slightly turning tow ard the crowd, were Mormon and Sam, smiling­ ly surveying the room. B ut not one there but knew that; faster than the ticking of a clock, guns m ight gleam and spurt fire and lead in cash pf trouble. ‘I’ll attend to my own business In my own way,” said the gambler, know­ ing the room weighed every word. It was a noncommittal statem ent and a light one, but it passed the situation foe the moment. Sandy pulled out. a gunmetal watch. “I make It half afteh one. ’Bout three hours to sunrise, Plimsoll. I’ll be round later.” He turned his back on the gambler and saunter >d toward the door. A few followed tlie three out into the street, among them, W yatt. “I got a hunch it ain’t extry healthy fo’ me in there,” he said. “A gamblin' parlor where I ain’t welcome to stay or play m akes no hit with me.” Many blocks away, men were watch­ ing the mesa whence came a high-pow­ ered car, rushing aT high speed, mai nificently tjrtven, taking curve and pitch and level with superb judgm ent Two men were.in the tonneau. One of them leaned forward, looking at the crowd, a square-jawed man, clean-shaven but forThe bristle of a silver mustache be­ neath an aggressive nose, above a firm hard mouth and determined chin. The ffilntage of the E ast w as stamped upon his feature^ He was a man accus- toiped to Swayv if not to lead. His companion was as plainly an Eastern product, but his manner was subordi­ nate. “I’m looking fog a man named Plim soil," said the-first of these two, his volce-a’n indication that he. was accus­ tomed to a quick answer. “H e wired me -about some claims. _ W here’ll find him?” “You’ll likely find .him at his pli.ee,' answered a miner. “Up-street on the left. Nam e's outside.” They let the car go on In a lane that was pressed out of, their ranks. They fell In behind-or alongside of It as U passed slowly u p 'th e street. " Sandy turned to Mormon. . - . “You better see Miss Mirandy np' to her claim,” he said, his voice casual enough. Mormon started an appeal, lmt It died unvoiced. ,.Th*- spinster knew nothing of the clash Impending between Sandy awl the gambler. Sandy walked up'the street without hurry and, as they had mado way T he nearer he got to PIlWSOlfli piflOG the m ore room they allow ed him . T hey melted auay trom tlie car on an sides, leaving it clearest betw een the M - ehine and. the entrance to the gam bling shack. The man with the square face looked alertly about him at the crowd, giving place fo the Jean tall jnan walk­ ing leisurely up the street, fejgh lights touching the m etal of the two guns that hung In holsters well to the front of his h ip s., Sandy’s face was serene, but there was no m istaking the fact that the star perform er of the moment had come upon the stage. Five paces back of him strolled Sam, his eyes dancing with the excitement that did not SliOff in Sandy’s steel-gray orbs. Ve1Stlake followed to one side,' by tlie advice of Sam. It w as Plim soll's w ay—the profes­ sional gambier’s way—to play his cards until he kuew him self beaten. He had been hoping for the arrival of this man. He represented capital, the develop­ m ent o f the camp into a mining town, the movement of money, the boom of quick sales. W ith his backing—once the camp understood what it m eant to all of them—he might turn the tables on Sandy Bourke. T he protection of Capital was powerful. He came out licking his lips nervous­ ly, with a sw ift survey that took In the setting of the stage prepared for his entrance. His eyes, shifting from the big machine, as If drawn by something beyond his will, focused on the figure of Sandy, easy but sinister in Its capac­ ity to avoid all melodrama. Half-way between door and car he halted. Plimsoll?” said the stranger. ’*I am Keith.” The light w as perceptibly changing. Faces of men came out of the shadows, pale but visible. In the east the sky' showed gray behind the dark purple crests between which m ists were trail­ ing. - - "Plimsoll,” said Sandy. “T hat peak oveh on Sawtooth range Is goin’ to catch the light first. I’ll call It sun-up when the sun looks oveh the mesa." Plimsoll bared his teeth In a fox- grin. Sandy stood with his hands by his sides, covering him with his eyes. Plimsoll looked at the hands that he knew could move sw ifter than he could follow, he looked at the car with Keith gazing from him to Sandy, he sensed the waiting strain of all the men, w ait­ ing to see Sandy shoot—if- he did not : go, to see him crumple up In the dust, : and—he looked at the peak on Saw- { tooth and his face grayed as the gran- 1 ite suddenly flushed with rose. H is , will melted, he turned and w ent Inside [ his cabin. No one followed him, there j was no ope, inside to greet him. H is i heart was filled with helpless rage, : centered against Sandy Bourke. H e J knear' the camp was against him, con- j SideVfJig him WJttfuffed or outmatched. J His, horse, ready saddled, bad been at j the door since midnight. He mounted, i dug spurs into the beast’s flanks and went galloping madly up the slope that rose from the street gulch leading down to the main gulch of Flivver (-reek. His plans for w ealth had been blocked by a man he dared not face, Before Sandy Bourke his spirit flinched as a leaf shrinks and curls from flame. CHAPTER XV.

Cotton needed cul­ tivation badly in Arkansas and very poor growth was reported from that state, w ith plants dying in some lo­ calities and mugh replanting being done. Growth was slow in Louisiana and M ississippi especially on the low­ lands and fields were becoming grassy in Tennessee. Cotton plants showed fairly good growth in Alabama but m uch of the w eek was rainy and field work needed, especially in the south.

Overman, in an address here before the Concord Kiwanis club, made an urgent plea for conservation of our constitution, the foundation of our country and the power of our liberty.” . Senator Overman w as especially severe In his criticism _of those peo­ ple who would “amend’ our constitu­ tion until we" have none left. He pointed out th a t there are T l bills to amend the constitution pending in Constitution pending in Congress now, and warned that some of them were very dangerous, especially those which would direct the teaching of birth control and would take aw ay certain powers of our courts. Senator Overman w as also em­ phatic in his denounciation of the amendm&it. relative to regulating child labor in the United States. “If we pass, an am endm ent stating that no children can work until they are 18 and such an am endm ent has been offered, we will raise a nation of idlers and loafers." Each state should be allowed to make its own laws relative to the working, of chil­ dren, the senator declared, and as an example of the efficiency of this plan, he pointed.out that in a senate com­ m ittee last year it was adm itted that North Carolina’s child labor law is the finest to be found In this country. Senator Overman said that he fa­ vored one of the 71 am endm ents' off­ ered to Congress. “That is the W ads­ w orth am endm ent,’’ he explained. “This am endm ent would put all future am endm ents up to the people, and that is who should decide them. You can’t force a n y . law created by a change in the constitution when the m ajority of the people-do npt favor the change.” Senator Overman issued a warning against bolsheviki, declaring they are attem pting to gain control of Con­ gress. “They will take -the powers from our courts, once they get con­ trol.” he warned, “and put everything in thd hands of Congress. Power centralized In Congress is the great­ est m enace’facing this country today.” Rights of states to regulate affairs w ithin them is a divine right the senator said, and h e' plead with .his hearers to fight against any movement that tends to further break down the constitution and weaken the rights of the states to “look after their own folks under local conditions.” Fourteen ,Die In Fire at M exicaly’’ Mexicali, Lower ■ California.—Four­ teen persons are known to have been killed and m ore than three blocks of buildings w ere destroyed by a fire w hich started in the operating room of a moving picture theater here.

Elaborate ceremonies culm inating in a procession to the H all of Fam e were held a t the university and were parti­ cipated in by representatives of many families famous in. American history and of scientific, literary, artistic and patriotic societies. Jules Jesserand, French ambassa­ dor to the United States, who unveil­ ed the Lincoln bust, declared th at the United States had learned from the example of the .martyred President the value of disinterested courage and generosity. Emerso, declared Dr. Henry Van Dyke, speaking a t the unveiling of the philosopher’s bust, illustrated the noblest achievement of democracy to produce a spiritual aristocracy. He was an awakener, a liberator, a teacher of courage with prodence. “The question of today,” Dr. Vau Dyke asserted, “is w hether the new generation of Am ericans will follow such native, teachings as those of Emerson, or turn to idolatry of strange godsT like Freud, the renegade Jew, Nietzsche, the insane German, and H. G. W ells, who thinks that he had in­ vented the only true religion which is communism. To turn from the writ­ ings of these m en to the poems and essays of Emerson is like coming out from a cabaret into the fresh air.” M artin W. Littleton,- president of the Southern Society of New York, speaking at the unveiling of the statue of Liee from the chisel of George T. Brewster, declared that th e ’ Confed­ erate general was the embodiment of a cause which was lost, but the rep­ resentative of a principle which will never die. “The cause,” he said, “was the right of a state to withdraw' from ’ the Union; the principal wps the right of state to withdraw from the Union; the principle w as prim ary and pa­ triotic loyalty to the sovereignty which he acknowledged. It m eant, perhaps, more happiness to mankind that the cause be lost, but it m eant perpetuity to civilization that the principle should survive.” Five Killed at Crossing.

One of the most destructive of all insects to the farm er in Australia is the cane beetle, which is still playing havoc on the sugar-cane farms. • Recently, at Norham, In North Queensland, a sugar-cane farm er gave a contract to a man to catch beetles at 18 cents a quart, and the beetle- catcher m ade £9 in three days. An­ other man caught 1,647 quarts of bee­ tles in 25. days. The high prices paid in order to de­ stroy these beetles give us an Idea of the amount of destruction wrought by the hordes of these Insects. ^ THre Deaths in Montreal Fire.

" • The claim to the region by Russia ihd- the apparent fact that it is at least sufficiently under Russian con- irol to make scientific work possible jy Russian archaeologists is interest­ ing because the site of Kharakhoto is little more than a stone’s throw from Peking in a region long under Chinese dominance.

But once out of the saddle—where they were more expert.and more at home even than Cossack or-Ainerican Indian —the Mongols lost their power and after a century their tremendous em­ pire was only a memory. -So' dram atic was this sudden rise and fall of the Mongols that- it .and the- somewhat drab period since have- gone for Mon­ go) history, and there has been little interest In what preceded their' brief excursion Into world dominion.

D uringthe last few years, the United States D e­ partm ent of Agriculture has been studying the'disease In certain local-. ItIes and now 'sum s up w hat is kno^n about it. in D epartm ent Circular 227, E astern Blue-Stem of the Black R asp­ berry, by R. B. W ilcox. _ v - Profits Curtailed. The disease, which is m arked by a peculiar curling of the young leaves and blue stripes on the cane's; gradu­ ally reduces the productivity of the plantations and kills the affected plants In' two or three years. In some sections where raspberries have been grown extensiyely fo,r years profits are curtailed to such an ex­ tent th a t farm ers are not encouraged to stay I i the business and the centec of production Is gradually shifting as disease follows the new plantings.. W here investigations have been made the infection of fields has; ranged from 0 to 75 per -cent, and total loss In the northeaster^ p art of the couptry Is thought to be .very large. Some slightly infected patches have been found In Michigan and W isconsin. - The general effect of blujrstem U ra gradual stunting of the plant, w ith a reduction of the yield and dw arfing of the berries. .When affected tips, are planted they m ake little growth, and the following spring th e y . start fe.ebly or not a t all. Often the grow er: may suspect th at the trouble is win-, ter-killing. No recoveries have evey been noted. If the affected parts ar^ cut off the disease will soon .show up In another part. Plants started by rooting the tips of diseased plants will always have the , disease. No bacteria or fungi have yet been found th at -might be said to be the causey b u t’ certain features of the malady, such as the m ottling and deformity of the leaves , and the 'stu n tin g and final-death of the plants, Indicate that It may be of the mosaic type. Diseased Tips Rlanteft Blue-stem becomes established by the-planting of diseased tips, but at the tim e of digging it is impossible to recognize those that carry the in­ fection, and. th e symptoms do not ap­ p ear' early ’enough In the spring' sq th at the diseased tips can be found before they,-fiave m ade growth of several inches. ' Thus far no very resistant variety has. been found, and no- spray is known to be effective.' The only practical -method’ to get ahead of blue-stem Is to get stock from a nursery known to be free of it and set as. far as practicable from diseased plantations. . Xoung fields m ust be carefully watched and plants showing blue-stem symptoms removed and replaced by healthy tips.
