The pig's place on the farm cannot he filled by any other animal . He is not only profitable when grown a s a crop In himself, but some very im­por tan t places rilled by him come from his ability to make use of feeds that would otherwise be lost. Thus he saves waste and utilizes mater ia ls around the farm which only he can use and conver ts these into a market­able product and cash. The pig is known as the "mortgage-lifter," and this appellat ion Is certainly well de­served.

Because of the pig's abili ty to util­ize the grain droppings from s tee r s , the pig often makes steer-feeding op­erations profitable that would not

1 prove so without his aid. Mumford reports in a summary of ten different

| exper iments tha t the gains made by ' pigs fed following s teers paid from

0.94 per cent to 16.67 per cent of the feed given the steers . These pigs were thrifty shotes and did not receive ad­ditional feed.

Considering the relative economy of the different kinds of live stock, the pig takes a place among the most eco­nomical. For the whole fa t tening pe-

. riod the ox requires 1,109 pounds of i dry feed to produce 100 pounds gain; , the sheep, 912 pounds, and the pig, 420

pounds. Among the classes of farm animals

the pig ranks second as a producer of human food from a given amount of digestible ma t t e r consumed. The milch cow leads in her power to convert crops of the field Into human food, with the pig second, poultry following, and the s teer and sheep coming low­est.

! Feeding pigs on the farm has an­other value, and that Is In relation to so'il fertility. The man who feeds biB g-ain to pigs sells a very small amount of fertilizing e lements off of the farm as compared with the oae who sells grain. Fur thermore , in us ing forage or pasture crops the value of the manure scattered over the field is considerable,

' Swine fanning, like other branches of live-stock farming, gives employ­ment to la: ,r dur ing the ent i re voar, and enables the farmer to keep .i1-ed labor throughout the year and ';oes not congest It at har/est t ime. I U P • og is the only . - ¾ animal that ^an

.-tafely harves t the orn crop, M J this practice is gainm* 4&> und from year to / e a r among the *w^st progressive farmers, resul t ing in 9 ^ t i e -^ \ in<j of labor to t h t .. ^ ! " j p - » g- ,wt» ais own '*rj

; expense and then a low the soil to lie idle from the t ime the 4rtt crop ma­tu res until t h e end of the season.

i Wuere a two or three crop sys tem is

used in connection with vegetables adapted to small areas , a space no larger than 25 by 70 feet will produce erough fresh vegetables for a small family. Corn, melons, cucumbers and potatoes and other crops which re­quire a large a rea should not be grown in a garden of this size. Half an acre properly cult ivated with a careful crop rota t ion may easily produce flQu worth of various garden crops in a year.

When to Work Soil. If t he garden was not broken In the

fall it should be plowed in the spring as soon as t he frost Is out of the ground. Small a reas may be worked with a spade, pushing the blade in to its full depth and turn ing the soil to break up the clods. Heavy soils should nevvjr be worked when wet. Overzealous gardeners , ready to seize the first warm spell as a favorable op­portuni ty to go out and work the heavy clay soil before it is dry, are not only wast ing their energy , but are doing a damage to the soil from which it will take years for it to recover. To de te rmine when heavy soils are ready for plowing a handful of ear th should be collected from the surface and the fingers tightly closed on it. If the ball of compacted ear th is dry enough for cult ivation it will fall apar t when the hand is opened.

How to Ferti l ize. The soil in the average backyard

is not only lacking in plant food, but also has been packed until it is hard and unyialding. To loosen up aucb soil and make it sui table for garden produce requires that careful at ten­tion be given to its prepara t ion . After spadlug the Inclosure thoroughly, the upper three Inches should be made fine with the use or hoe and rake. S t o a t s and rubbish should be removed a i d clods of dirt broken. The surface should be marked off for plant ing in conformity with the general plan of the garden.

Barnyard or stable manure is the best fertilizer because It furnishes both plant food and humus . An appli cation at the ra te of from 20 to 30 tons to the acre of well rotted manure .s vory sat isfactory. This should be ap-pi >d after plowing or worked with a

i spade, and distr ibuted evenly over I the surface and later worked in with a I ' <~~ or rake On many soils It la ad-

v able to apply commercial fertilizer, e pec ally phosphate , in addition to Jit manure . An application of 300 to HOu , unds of acid phospha te to the acre is usually sufficient. If addition­al potash Is needed, which is often the case with sandy soils, th is may be eco-noml ally supplied in t he form of wor,(l ashes . If tl.t wood ashes are un-each^d they should be dis tr ibuted

rver the garden, using 1,000 pounds to che acre . If they have been wet, or leached, 2,000 pounds should be used. An application of 100 pounds to the acre of n i t r a t e pf soda may be used In the spring to start the plants before ni trogen in the manure has become available.

ON T H E DOWNGRADE. For a decade while prohibition a rea

was steadily spreading, the s ta t is t ics of t h e federal government showed t he manufac tu re r s of intoxicants paying taxes on a constantly enlarging quan­tity of thei r products . And it aure-ly did make a hard uut lor a prohibi­t ionis t to crack -to explain the reason why tho liquor t rade got bet ter while saloons were all the t ime growing fewer. -The Continent.

Not such a hard nu t when it la known tha t all liquor on which the government tax has been paid is offi­cially repor ted as 'consumed, ' ' and tha t dur ing the decade referred to l a rge quant i t ies were forced out of the bonded warehouses by the t ime limit and stored in pr iva te warehouses awai t ing a constantly decreasing de mand.

"But," cont inues the Continent , with pe r t inen t emphasis , "wha tever was the real secre t of tha t paradox, the ne­cessi ty of explaining it has now quite gone by. It is a fact no more. The bus iness of brewing and distil l ing is at las t on a toboggan slide which no­body can deny. The repor t of the com­miss ioner of internal r evenue for 1915, jus t issued, shows a decl ine in both beer making and whisky making, which demons t ra t e s t ha t prohibit ion is now prohibi t ing with a vengeance plainly mark ing the beginning of the end. The 1914 report a l ready showed some shor tage in the whisky business ; from the year before t he re was a de­cline of 15,000,000 gallons. But the new repor t proves how falling bodies a re accelerated as they fall, for the decl ine in the year Just past is 41,000,-C00 gallons—from 181,000,000 to 140,-000,000.

"Even more significant is the record­ed i tem tha t within t h e year 198 dis­t i l ler ies quit business out of 743 such ins t i tu t ions in the United Sta tes . And meanwhi le the quant i ty of beer made in t h i s country decreased from 66,000,-000 ba r r e l s to 59,000,000. This is, for the b rewers , thei r first setback, but it furnishes sufficient notice that they a re t ickoted for the same downgrade t h a t their distil l ing bre thren are em­barked on. The cry, is Going down! ' for t he whole crew of 'em."

A L C O H O L AND P N E U M O N I A . Dr. W. A. Evans conducts a depart­

ment , "How to Keep Well," in Chica­go Daily Tribune. Giving advice re­cently concerning m e a s u r e s for the prevent ion of colds and pneumonia he sa id :

"Now is the time to get en the wa­ter wagon and to stay there . Whisky and every other form of alcoholic dr ink is a pneumonia beget ter . Alco­hol lowers the fighting defenses of the h u m a n body against all forms of dis­ease, hut especially aga ins t pneumonia. This has been proved by careful scien­tific testa. It is a universa l ly recog­nized clinical fact. Th is Is one of the points on which the laboratory men and the pract icing physic ians are in full accord. If an ord inary man gets pneumonia chances a r e t h r e e to one t h a t he will get well. Whisky drink­e r s who get pneumonia do not have a th r ee - toone chance for life."

CONSTRUCTION OF NEST BOX SEEDING AND PLANTING TIME _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ i ,

In Cold Climates It Must Be Tight Farmer Who Starts Just Little Behind snd Warm Bnouoti to Keep Lay- Is Almost Sure to Remain So

ing Hens Comfortable. . During Entire Season.

» • /

Where poultry houses a re too small to accommodate all the fixtures com­fortably, some poultrymen pract ice t h e plan of having the nest boxes out side of t he part i t ion wall The nest box is m a d e 15 Inches wide and the same In height and as long as desired Par t i t ions are placed to allow 12 to 15 inches for each nest , according to the size of the breed kept The nest box It attached to t h e outside of the house with s t rong hooks and screw •yea. The cover is hinged, and fitted with a pitch sufficient to shed water. and is covered with roofing paper.

In cold cl imates the en t i re construc­tion of the neat box must be t ight and warm enough to keep the laying bens comfortably when on the nest In hot weather the neat box cover can be slightly elevated to afford a ventlla tloo. In some eases this plan of neat hot is qui te a convenience at ve i l aa i sar in* of room.

It Is quite an item to get all the work done in good season on the farm Especially is this t rue of seeding and plant ing

Or course, there is danger of being too early and the ge t t ing of the *w»ed in t h e r round mnUe it is cold and wet; at the same t ime, in a great many cases* the i t r m a r who starts In the spring s l i ttle behind will nesr ly always be Just s l i t t le behind all through the season, and this means, no m a t t e r how bard be may work, a failure to secure the best results in the end.

RUSSIA DRY FOR A L L T I M E . In a debate before the Russian

d u m a t he minis ter of finance, M. Bark, m a d e this significant declara t ion:

"I deem It necessary to declare cate­gorical ly t ha t a l l suspicions ascr ibing to t h e government a n y in tent ion of r e suming t he s ta te sale of l iquors a re unfounded.

Those of us who are accustomed to feel dull and heavy when we arise; splitting headache, stuffy from a cold, foul tongue, nasty breath, acid stom ach, lame back, can. instead, both look and feel as fresh as a daisy aiwa>* by washing the poison* and toxins from the body with phoaphated hoi water each morning.

We should drink, before breakfast, a glass of real hot water with a tea-spoonful of limestone phosphate in it to flush from the stomach, liver, kidneys and ten yards of bowels the previous day's indigestible waste, sour bile and poisonous toxins; thus cleans­ing, sweetening and purifying the en­tire alimentary canal before putting more food Into the stomach.

The action of limestone phosphate and hot water on an empty stomach is wonderfully invigorating. It cleans out all the sour fermentations, gases, waste and acidity and gives one a splendid appetite for breakfast and it is said to be but a little while until the roses begin to appear in the cheeks. A quarter pound of lime­stone phosphate will cost very little at your druggist or from the store, but is sufficient to make anyone who is bothered with biliousness, constipa tion, stomach trouble or rheumatism a real enthusiast on the subject of in­ternal sanitation. Try it and you are assured that you will look better and feel better in every way shortly.— Adv.

of C i t c a P r e a c h i n g Pc*co

vs. W a r .

Detroit The Detroit Opera House was packed Sunday afternoon with people who came to listen io speak­ers who oppose preparedness and an overflow meeting wa.b held in the Campus Maruus. "Democracy Agalnbt Militarism" read a huge tiign stretched across the btage of the opera house, as the keynote of ihe "Truth About Preparedness."

Henry Ford and his wife sat mod estly hidden in a box at the principal meeting. Society women distributed circulars of Congressman Tavener's speech on the "Cost of War." Sier-eoptican slides and motion picture-were shown. Workingmen in the gal leries led frequent rounds of applause. Harold Jarvis sang

The speakers at the mass meeting are on a tour of 12 lar^e cities where similar mass meetings have been ar­ranged by local committees. They have announced that their tour is "an answer to the challenge of President Wilao-n that all who oppose the policy of a larger army and navy should hire a hall and tell it to the people cf the land."

"This meeting Is not anti-prepared-nes?, but anti-militarism," said Rev. Eugene Rodman Shippen, the chair-m a ^ in his introductory remarks. "We seek the best interests of the American union, rather than the profit of the military circle which is bring­ing Europe into ruin.

"This meeting is a protest against the hysteria of fear which many agencies have cultivated so system­atically and against the frenzy of war­fare which may threaten our lives, our liberty and our proper pursuit of happiness."

Dr. A. A. Berle of Tufts college, Boston, was the first speaker, He was followed by Rabbi Stephan S. Wise of New York and Amos Pinchot who subsequently briefly addressed the overflow meeting in the open air. The crowd listened respectfully but asked numerous questions. There were other speakers following the principal ones. The chief arguments of some of the speakers were: "The war frenzy if a disease." "It is the greed of the munition manufacturers that is fighting peace," "When there Is no more poverty people will not want to fight."

Rabbi Wise disclosed: "1 am against militarism now, because if we con­tinue to prepare, another war will be inevitable, and it will be the first of a series, a world orgy of fite, disaster and blood. God forbid that the shame of a perpetuation of war should lie on the conscience of the American people."

Dr. Berle charged graft, saying: "Let us not allow feverish madness to endanger our liberties and place ourselves in the hands of the militar­ists who are now rgsnized to graft upon the puttie* ^J^ *nd fatten their bank • c c ^ i j j f j f

Pinchot aBjtjr?,' . - er statements said this: "R«BW«ber, war is of the people and it is by the people. But war is never for the people. Consid­er, in Europe $1,000,000,000 is being spent every IB days in the destruc­tion of war."

Dr. Wise then made an appeal for funds, declaring that while traveling expenses were guaranteed to the par­ty, that there was no surplus funds for printing or other expenses. Col­lection plates were passed around and about $300 collected.

The bill was drawn by Represent­ative Rftiney of Illinois.

President Wilson recently announced that he was in favor of the passage by the present congress of a bill cre­ating a tariff commission. The meas­ure in its present form provides for a commission of six members with sal­aries of % 10,000 a year each and It is especially provided that not more than three members shall belong to the same political party.

In a statement made by the framer of the bill, and authorized by the ma­jority of the ways and means commit­tee, the following appears:

"This would mean three Democrats and three Republicans. From the po­litical standpoint, the membership of the committee would be equally bal­anced between the parties which favor different methods of imposing tariffs. The bill requires the chairman and the vice-chairman to be selected bien­nially. This makes it Impossible to install in these important offices for a long term members who happen to belong to the political party in power when the appointment is made. In the first instance members are ap­pointed for two, four, six. eight, ten and twelve years respectively. As their terms expire, however, their suc­cessors are appointed for twelve years."

Keep Tariff Out of Politic*.

It is urged by some members of congress that this specific division of the commission Into a membership of Republicans and Democrats as out* lined by the framer of the bill perhaps may not be possible as things devel­op. It is said that Inasmuch as the measure provides simply that not more than three members of the com­mission shall belong to any one party It will be possible to appoint three Democrats or three Republicans and then for Instance to appoint a Progres­sive, a Prohibitionist, a Socialist It Is the intention of the measure, however, to keep the tariff out of poll-tics and if the president shall exercise Judgment in the appointment of mem bers it can be made a commission non-poHtical In its nature no matter what parties are represented.

Ever since the tariff commission plan first was suggested the idea has been to Becure a membership which would consider the tariff as a business proposition and not as a political one. It is expected that business men and students of economics will be ap­pointed to the commission. An Ideal commission, as members of all parties view It, would be one which would study business conditions throughout the country, would determine actually which Industries need protection and which do not, and then would act ac­cordingly. It must not be supposed for a moment, however, that this bill or any other bill which has been framed in the past has for its object the appointment of a commission which shall concern Itself directly with tariff legislation.

If this measure passes congress, as it is presumed that it will, the com­mission will be empowered to act only In an advisory capacity to congress. It will make studies of conditions here, there and everywhere, and then will lay Its reports before the president and the congress of the United 8tates. There is nothing in the proposed law, and there can be nothing In i t which will In any way take sway from con­gress the right to legislate as it chooses In tariff matters.

and the natural expansion of its us» fulness in saving life and properly at sea demand application of ihe art ot flying to search for derelicts and (or carrying aid to ships and meti in dis tress at sea"

It was only recently that the lire-saving corps of the United States, which is composed of men who patrol the beaches and the rocky headlands and who go to sea in small bouts at the risk of their own lives to rescue those In danger, was put upon a foot lag similar to that occupied by the revenue cutter service and In a meas­ure by that occupied by the army and navy. For years the llfesavers at small pay haa risked everything for the saving of the property and the lives of others and yet when they were old and uaftt for service they were turned out without pensions and with­out any provision whatsoever for their declining years.

Aero Corps to Help Coart Guard. Congress may act to provide aero­

planes as aids to the life-saving and the revenue cutter services of the United States, two services which re­cently have been merged into one un­der the name of the coast guard.

Department officials are now en gatsd in perfecting a bill which will be Introduced into congress for the crea-yen of a coast guard aerial corps. By­ron R. Newton, assistant secretary of the treasury, who has jurisdiction over the coast guards, says on this matter:

"I favor any legislation which will provide for the development of the coast guard to a higher degree of etV

the lifesav*ng service has been made a part of the revenue cutter service and the two together are called the coast guard. The men who dare all to help others can retire after a cer­tain length of service and then they receive retired pay. For yearB at­tempts were male to Induce congress to render assistance to the service which always wes ready to give its help to others, but every attempt to do anything for the men who fronted wave and storm at the call of duty failed until a short time ago, when congress finally consented to act.

If an aero coast guard service Is sanctioned by congress it will mean added dangers for the members of the coast guard. When a vessel reports by wireless that it Is in distress some­where off the coaBt it !s the instant duty of a revenue cutter to put out to the rescue. It frequently happens that the cutter men cannot quickly lo­cate the distressed ship because wave and wind and tide have changed its position, "t is believed that by the use of aeroplanes of the sea plane type vessels In distress more quickly can be located and help more quickly reo dered.

It is believed also to be a part o£ the plan to equip some of the life-saving stations on the coast with aeroplanes. The thought 1B that an aeroplane put­ting seaward can pass a line over a stranded ship more accurately and quickly than It can be done by means of the mortars on shore which are now used to throw a projectile with a line attached to Bhips on the rocks or fast in the sand.

The coast guard as It is constituted Is Uncle Sam's most recently organ­ized service. Of course the revenue cutter and the life-saving services as distinct bodies have existed for years, but now they have been welded.

State, War and Navy Club. Officials and employees of the state,

war and navy departments have or­ganized a social club which will have membership reaching into the thou­sands. The department of the interior set a club example two years ago, and It seems likely that it will be followed by all the other departments of govern­ment The Home club of Mr. Lanes department has been a huge ruccess.

It Is said that Washington, In pro­portion to its population, has more social clubs than any other city in the Union, but the organizations for instruction and to promote sociabil­ity among the officials and clerks, ar* a departure in club life. Through ah the years of Washington's existence as the nation's capital nothing of the kind ever has been tried before, and this is regarded as an amazing fact by those who now see the possibili­ties in the case.

The organization which the state, war and navy departments have set out to form has not yet been named. That it will take a definite name, fol­lowing the example of the interior de­partment's organization, which is called the Home club, there Is no doubt The state, war and navy work­ers are determined to put their club on a firm basis from the start and to make it a club after the manner of university clubs and other organiza­tions which all the big cities contain.

Will Erect a Building. A corporation has been formed, and

the employees of the three depart­ments have purchased stock at a mod­est figure. The money will be used to erect and equip a building to be used as the home of the club, one where the employees can gather for purposes of entertainment and in­struction. The Home club of the In­terior department has leased a fine residence on Lafayette square which formerly was the Persian legation, but It is the intention of the newly formed society to own its own build­ing.

Cabinet officers are much interested in the forming of these social organ!-cations In the departments of which they are the chiefs, tt is said that the government already has benefit* ted, from the fact that the workers In the interior department through the club life, have become better ac­quainted with one another, and there* fore have exchanged views of work­ing conditions and concerning means

"Please rectify these falBe state­ments," said General Aguilar to the Associated Press. "The Mexican gov­ernment has not given the American government permission to use Mexi­can railways for any purpose what­ever."

Canada as a whole has enjoyed won­derful prosperity in 1915, from the products of the farm, the orchard and the centres of industry. No country wrote a brighter page of history in agricultural and industrial develop­ment during 1915 than Canada. Nearly a billion buBhelB of grain produced. Taxes in Western Canada average $24 and will not exceed $35 per quarter section, which includes all taxes. No taxes on improvements.

When Western Canada was faced with her enormous harvest last fall the military authorities decided that soldiers in Canada could give the Em­pire no better service for the time being than to assist in harvesting the crops. For tnat reason leave of ab­sence was given to soldiers who wished to work ln the harvest fields, and their labor was an important fac­tor in harvesting the big crops success­fully.

The necessity for increasing the ag­ricultural production is commanding even more attention ln 1916, and it Is now announced that soldiers in Can­ada may obtain leave of absence from their military duties in the spring for a certain length of time to enable them to plant the seed for the crops ln every Province of the Dominion.

The fact that the Government rec­ognizes the seeding and harvesting of Canada's crops as being of the first importance is perhaps the best evi­dence that conscription or any in­crease of taxes which would reduce the agricultural activity of Canada will never be considered by the author­ities.

Owing to the number who have en­listed for overseas service it has been found necessary to secure farm labor in the United States. It is hoped that fifty thousand can be secured.—Adver­tisement.

Broutllard, chief engineer of the Niquoia irr igat ion dam, meet* J. Wealey Cart -wright and hia daughter , Genevieve, and expla ins the rec lamat ion work to them. Cor twr ight t ees a big chance to make money, o rgan i ses a company and obtains gove rnmen t cont rac t s to furnish power and mater ia l .

On a visit to Amy Mas-eingale at her fa ther ' s mine Broulllard tella IHT of his need for money to pay off hl8 dead fa ther ' s debts. She tells him to be true to himself. He decides for the ex­tension Mliapolla, the city of numbered clays, booms. Cortwright persuades Broull­lard to become consult ing engineer of the consolidated electric power company in re­tu rn Tor $100,000 stock. Stoppage of work on the railroad th rea tens a panic, Broull­lard spreads the Masslngale story of placer gold in the r iver bed and s t a r t s a gold rush. The gold rush promises to stop the rec:Hmatlon project. Amy tells Broull­la rd that her father has incorporated the "Li t t le Susan" and is in Cor twrlght ' s c lu tches financially. He tells her he has made $100,000 and declares his love. Amy loves him but shows him that he has be­come demoralised. Masaingale 's p lacer gold find was a fraud, but a real find Is made

"\ didn't know you could be so con­vincing." was MISB Genevieve's com ment. "It was splendid! Nobody will ever believe that you are going to go on building your dam and threatening to drown us, after fcbls."

"What did I aay?" queried Broull­lard, having, at the moment, only the haziest possible Idea of what he had said.

"As If you didn't know!" she laughed. "You congratulated every body. And the funny thing about It Is that you didn't say a single word about the Niquoia dam."

"Didn't 1? That shows how com pletely your father has converted me. how helplessly I am carried along on the torrent of events."

"But you are not," she said accus­ingly. "Deep down in your Inner con­sciousness you don't believe a little bit in Mlrapolis. You are only playing tbe game with the rest of us, Mr. Broull­lard."

Gorman. Mr. Cortwrlght's ablest trumpeter In the real-estate booming, was holding the plaza crowd spell bound with prophetic outlining of tbe Mlrapolitan future.

In the middle distance and back­grounding the buildings on the oppo­site side of the plara, rose the false work of the great dam—a standing for­est of sawed timbers, whose afternoon shadows were already pointing like a many-flngered fate toward the city of the plain. But, though the face of the speaker was toward the shadowing for­est, his words ignored it. "The snow­capped Timayonis." "tbe mighty Chi-gringo," and "the golden-veined slopes of Jack's mountain" all came In for en-logistic mention; but the massive wall of concrete, with Its bristling parapet of timbers, had no part In the orator's flamboyant descriptive.

Broulllard loved Amy Masslngale with a passion which, however blind It might be on the side of the higher moralities, was still keen-sighted enough to assure him that every plunge be made in the Mirapolltan whirlpool was sweeping him farther away from her.

He had transferred the power com­pany's stock, minus a single share to cover his official standing on the power company's board, to Cortwright and had opened an account at the Ni­quoia National. The ninety-nine thou­sand nine hundred dollars had since p e w n by speculative accretions to the Ultnded eighth of a million which all

meters agree In calling the stepping je to fortune-

Re had regarded thfi money—was still regarding It—as a loan; hia lever with which to pry out something which he could really call his own But more and more possession and use were dull* Ing the keen edge of accountability and there were momenta of insight when the grim Irony of taking tbe price of h c = r \a pay an honor debt forced 'teelf upon him. At such mo­menta be plunged more recklessly, In one of them taking stock In a gold-dredge company which waa to wash nuggets by the wholesale out of the Qoadjenal Dead, fo soother buying yet oilier options ta the newest suburb of sHrapotta

With «»e waning of the day of cele­

brations the temper of the street thrcngs was changing. It Is only the people of the Latinized cities who can take the carnival spirit lightly; in other blood liberty grows to license and tbe thin veneer of civilized re­straints quickly disappears. From early dawn the saloons and dives had been adding fuel to tbe flames, and light-heartedness and good-natured horseplay were giving way to sardonic humor and brutality.

In the short faring through the crowded street from the plaza to the Metropole corner Broulllard saw and heard things to make his blood boil Twice before he reached Bongras' cafe entrance the engineer shouldered his way to the rescue of some badgered nucleus of excursionists, and jn each Instance there were frightened women to be hurriedly spirited away to the nearest place of seclusion and safety.

It was In front of Bongras' that Broulllard came upon Rev. Hugh Cast-ner, the hot-hearted young zealot who had been flung Into Mlrapolis on the crest of the tidal wave of mining ex­citement. Though Hosford—who had not been effaced, as Mr. Cortwright had promised he should be—and the men of his clique called the young missionary a meddlesome visionary, ho stood in the stature of a man, and lower Chlgringo avenue loved him and swore by him now and then when somo poor soul, hastily summoned, was to be eased off Into eternity.

When Broulllard caught sight of him Castner was looking out over the seething street caldron from hlB com­manding height of six feet of athletic man stature, his strong face a mask of bitter humiliation and concern.

"Broulllard, this Is simply hideous!" he exclaimed. "If this devils' carnival goes on until nightfall we shall hare a revival of the old Roman Saturnalia at Its worst!" Then, with a swift blow at the heart of the matter: "You're the man I've been wanting to see; you are pretty close in with the Cortwright Junta—is it true that free whisky has been dealt out to the crowd over the bar In the Niquoia building?"

Broulllard said that he did not know, which was true, and that he could not believe It possible, which was not true. "The Cortwright people are as anxious to have the celebration pass off peace­ably as even you can be," he assured the young missionary, trying to but­tress the thing which waa not true. "When riot comes In at the door, busi­ness flies out at the window; and, after ail. this feast of hurrahs is mere­ly another bid for business."

But Castner was shaking his head. "I can't answer for Mr. Cortwright

personally. He and Handley and Schermerhorn and a few of the others seem to stand for respectability of a sort But, Mr. Broulllard, I want to tell you this: somebody in authority is grafting upon the vice of this com­munity, not only today but all the time."

"The community Is certainly vicious enough to warrant any charge you can make," admitted Broulllard. Then he changed the topic abruptly. "Have you seen Miss Masslngale since noon?"

"Yes; I saw her with Smith, the cattleman, at the other end of the ave­nue about an hour ago."

"Heavens!" gritted the engineer. "Didn't Smith know better than to take her down there at such a time as this?"

The young missionary was frowning thoughtfully. "1 think It was the other way about Her brother has been drinking again, and I took It for grant-ed that she and Smith were looking for him."

Broulllard buttoned his coat and pulled his soft hat over his eyes.

"I'm going to look for her," he said. "Will you come slongTM

Castner nodded, and together they put their shoulders to the crowd. Again end again the engineer and his com­panion had to intervene by word sod blow to protect the helpless In the half-drunken, gibe-flinging crush, and In these sallies Castner bore hit part like a man, expostulating first and hit­ting out afterward In a fashion that left no doubt In the mind of his antag­onist of the moment

"It waa little lest thsn s crime to turn your laborers loose on the town on inch an occasion as this." said Cast­ner, dealing out hit words as frankly and openly as he did his blows.

Broulllard throggadL "If I hadnt given them ti?» 4ay

they would have taken It without leave You'll have to pass the responsibility on to someone higher up."

The militant one accepted the chal­lenge promptly.

"It lies altimately at the door ot those whose Insatiate greed baa built

this new Gomorrah In the shadow of your dam." He wheeled suddenly and flung a long arm toward ire hair nn lahed structure filling the gap between the western shoulders of Chlgringo and Jack's mountain. "There stands the proof of God's wisdom In hiding the future from mankind. Mr Broull lard. Because a little section of bu manity here behind that great wall knows the end of its hopes, and the manner and time of that end. it be­comes demon-ridden, irreclaimable!"

At another time the engineer might have felt the force of the tersely elo­quent summing up of the accusation against the Mirapolltan attitude. Rut now he was looking anxiously for Amy Masslngale or her escort, or both of them.

"Surely Smith wouldn't let her stay down here a minute longer than it took to get her away," he said Impa­tiently as a pair of drunken Cornish men reeled out of Haley's place and usurped the sidewalk. "Where was It you saw them, Castner?"

"They were in front of 'Pegleg John's,' in .the next block. Miss Mas singale was waiting for Smith, who was Just coming out of Peglegs den shaking his head. I put two and two together and guessed they were look ing for Stephen."

"If they went there Miss Amy had her reasons. Let's try It," said Brouil lard, and he was half-way across the street when Castner overtook him

There was a dance hall next door to Pegleg John's barrel house and gam bllng rooms, and, though the daylight was still strong enough to make tbe electrics garishly unnecessary the orgy was in full swing, the raucous clanging of a piano and the shuffle and stamp of many feet drowning the monotonous cries of the sidewalk "barker," who was Inviting all and sundry to enter and Join the dancers.

Castner would have stopped to ques tlon the "barker"—was, in fact, trying to make himself heard—when the sharp crash of a pistol shot dominated the clamor of the piano and the stamp­ing feet Broulllard made a quick dash for the open door of the neighboring barrel house, and Castner was so good a second that they burst In as one man.

The dingy Interior of Pegleg John s. which was merely a barrel-lined vest! bule leading to the gambling rooms beyond, staged a tragedy. A handsome young giant, out of whose face sudden agony had driven the brooding pas­sion of intoxication, lay, loose-flung on the sawdust-covered floor, with Amy Masslngale kneeling In stricken, tearless misery beside him. Almost within arm's reach Van Bruce Cort­wright the slayer, was wrestling stub­bornly with Tig Smith and the fat armed barkeeper, who were trying to disarm him, his heavy face a mask of irresponsible rage and his lips bub bllng Imprecations.

"Turn me loose." he gritted. "I'll flx him so he won't give the governor's snap away! He'll pipe the story of the Coronlda grant off to the papers? —not If 1 kill him till he's too dead to bury, 1 guess."

Castner Ignored the wrestling three and dropped quickly on his knees be side Stephen Masslngale, bracing the misery-stricken girl with the needed word of hope and directing her In low tones how to help him search for the wound.

But Broulllard hurled himself with an oath upon young Cortwright and it was be, and neither the cattleman nor the fat-armed barkeeper, who wrenched the weapon out of Cortwrlght's grasp and with It menaced the babbling mur derer Into silence.

CHAPTER XV Quicksands

A short week after the reclamation service headquarters had been moved from the log-built offices on the gov ernment reservation to the com modi out and airy suite on tbe sixth floor of the Niquoia budding Broulllard re ceived the summons which he bad been expecting ever since the night of rioting and lawlessness which bad marked the close of the railroad cele oration.

"Mr. Cortwright would like to tee yon tn hit rooms at the Metropole.' was tbe message the office boy brought, and Broulllard closed hit desk with t snap and followed the boy to Boagrtt

The shrewd-eyed tyrant of Mlrapo­lis was In his shirt sleeves, busily die tattng to two stenographers alternate ly, when the engineer entered the third room of the series; hut the work waa

suspended and the stenographers were aeni away aa soon as Brodlllard was announced

"Well," waa the aiilllonalre'B greet Ing. you waited io bu ueni tor. didn't you ?'

"Why not?"' aald Erouillard shortly. "I have cuy work to do and you bare yours "

"Aud tbe two Joba are at opposite enda of the string, you d say Never mind; we can't afford to throw each other down, and Juat now you can tell me a few things that I want to know. How la young Masaingale get ting along''1

"I think not. Masaingale la a Ken tuckian, and 1 fancy he ia quite caps ble of potting either one or both of you for the attack on hts son Hut so far he has done nothing-has hardly left Steve's bedside."

Mr. J. Wealey Cortwright flung him self back In hia luxurious awing chair and clasped hia pudgy hands over iht top of his head where the reddish gray hair was thinning reluctantly

"I've been putting it off to see which way the cat was going to Jump," be ad mitted. "If young Maaaiugale is out of danger, it la time to get action. What was the quarrel about, between btm and Van Bruce?"

"It occurs to me trnt your son would be a better source of Information, said Broulllard, evading.

"Van Bruce has told me all he re members—which Isfl't much, owing to his own beastly condition at the time He says young Masslngale was threat ening something—something In con nection with the Corontda grant—and that he got the insane idea into hta head that the only way to atop the threat was by killing Masslngale."

The sandy-gray eyes of the million aire promoter were shifting while be spoke, but Broulllard fixed and held them before he said: "Why should Masslngale threaten your son. Mr Cortwright?"

"I don't know," denied the promoter, and he said It without flinching a hair's breadth.

"Then I ran tell you," waa the equal ly steady rejoinder. "Some time ago you lent David Masslngale, through the bank, a pretty large Bum of money for development expenses on the 'Little Susan, taking a mortgage on every thing in sight to cover tbe loan. But when the railroad was an assured fact he learned that the Red Butte smelt ers wouldn't take his ore. giving some technical reason which he knew to be a mere excuse."

Mr. Cortwright nodded. "So far you might be reading It out of a book."

"In consequence, David Masslngale finds himself In a fair way to become a broken man by the simplest of com mercial processes. Tbe bank holds his notes, which will presently have to be paid. If he can't pay, the bank comes back on you as his Indorscr, and you fall back on your mortgage and take the mine. Isn't that about the Blze of It?"

"It Is exactly the size ot i t I do want tbe 'Little Susan' and I've got a good friend or two in the Red Butte smelters who will help me get It."

Brouillard's black eyes were snap­ping, but his voice was quite steady when he said: "Thank you. That brings us down to the mention of the Coronlda grant and Stephen Masslc gale's threat—which your son can't re member."

"Rtght-o," said Mr. Cortwright. still with predetermined geniality. "What was the threat?"

"1 don't know, but the guessing list is open to everybody. There was once a grant of many square miles of moun­tain and desert somewhere in thit re glon made to one Don Estacio de Hon tarrtba Coronlda, Like those of most of the great Spanish land grants, the boundaries of this one were loosely described and—*

Mr. Cortwright held up a fat hand "I know what you're going to say.

But we went into all that at Washing ton before we ever invested a single dollar in this valley. As you may or may not know, the reclamation serv ice bureau tried to choke us off. But when it came down to brass tacks. they lacked a witness. We may be tn the bed of your proposed lake, but we're safely on Coronlda land."

"So you say,M said Broulllard quietly, "and on the strength of that you havt been guaranteeing titles. Just there is where Masslngale conies In. I imag­ine. He has spent twenty years or more in this region, and be knows every landmark tn It. What tf he should be able to put a lighted match to your pile of kindling. Mr. Cort­wright r

As in the United biates it Is said, that the Mennonlieo in Canada are very much oppressed, and have to nuf fer from a great deal (on account of the War in Europe) and I have been requested to write something about this, 1 will do so.

I came with my parents A. D 1874, from Southern Rus­sia to America, South Dakota, and A. D. 1907 I came with my family

here to Western Canada, here we have found a healthy climate; the acre yields on an average more and wheat is better than in South Dakota. What concerns the Government, up to now we have had a good one, have been able to live according to our creed and have not been oppressed in any way, and I believe: All Mennonites. who live according to the fundamental be­liefs of the Mennonkes and to Gods word, as their guide, will agree with me.

He, who, here in Canada, will and does work, will not want. So much as an answer.

Very few farmers cultivate the habit of keeping careful accounts of their receipts and expenditures, showing at the end of the year a balance, either for or against. The farme* of Western Canada is no exception to this. It is felt if more careful book-keeping were resorted to there that much better re-— • »i suits would be ob-

Discovered by the Portuguese navigator whose name tt bears in 1471, it was occupied by the Spaniards in 1778, but left derelict In 1782. There was a British settle­ment In the Island from 1827 to 1834. utilised chiefly for observation upon the slave traffic, and Baptist mission­aries lingered on until the Spaniards, who came back again in 1844, expelled them in 1858.
