ence of danger that ha{ filed so many
Western graves. The bEbnzed plainsmer
sitting around the fire putting at theiI
pipes were prone to doubt Many Of them
privately thought that the alleged dis
tance around the earth,,was somewhat
exaggerated, and as for the report that
Geronimo's band YVES on the warpath 1t
was one they had heard so many times
that 1t had grown monotonous. The
number of men, supposed to be about
ten, and n wife and two babies were wait
ing for his return.
The freighters had been holding an ami
mated discussion as to whether the left
wheel horse or the right leader was the
better runner. 1t was growing late when
one of them, about to replenish the fire,
noticed a red glare against the sky. He
dropped the wood and threw two buckets
OF water on the flames All the sanguine
assurances of safety disappeared now be-
fore the unmistakable signs of danger.
Tales of cruelty that had seemed ro-
mances moment before were accepted
as gospel facts now. A messenger was
sent to tell the night herder to get the
horses as far away from the camp as
possible. lest by their whinnying they
should attract the Indians 1t was the
individual belief of every one that the In
dlans knew of their presence and that In
dian spies had been watching their every
movement; but face to face with danger
men neglect no precaution that may con-
tribute to their safety The man that was
sent to warn the herder, was fully justi-
ned In the belief that Indian spies would
see MIN leave the camp but he made no
protest III Is easier to tempt fate than
lie and wait supinely for its final stroke
The freighters pulled the wagons to-
gether In an attempt to make rude forti-
hcations. Nellie and her husband were
awakened and told of their danger The
girl did not beg to be killed IL the Indi-
ans came, but there were several among
that company that debated with them
selves whether or not pistol bullet was
not more merciful than Apache torture.
Her natural protector was simply stupe-
ned by the danger. He lay on blanket
and buried his face in his hands. The girl
was Drawer. but she, too. trembled like
leaf, and held the rough, calloused hand
OF frelghter between both her own.
The glare of the flames grew brighter.
The yells of the Indians could be heard
plainly now. Sometimes the short, sharp
crack of Winchester reached the ears
of the freighters, but whether 1t was the
signal of death for friend or foe could not
be guessed, for Geronimo's band had
modern weapons. Several among that
company fancied they heard the implor-
ing accents of woman's voice, but in
times like this the senses are not to be
trusted At last a cracking of the bush
es was heard. The men set their teeth
and waited but just when they had nerv-
ed themselves for the conflict they heard
the voice Of the man who had been sent
TO warn the herder When he got to the
camp he said that neither the night herd
er nor the horses We're TO be found His
words merely confirmed a suspicion that
every one had harbored and the only
wonder felt was because he returned
alive

THE NEW DAIRY LAW.
The Measure Now in Force But a Part
of What Was Considered Necessary,

VI w " NuuStNAlSu NSSSNSdIN,
At the last session OF the Legislature IA
law was laSsed that seeks by direct
methods to improve the healthfulness of
the milk supply. This is the first law of
its kind in this State and it vas accom-
plished by the ,flprts of tie farmers,
through the aid of the senior and Junior
Gunpowder Agricultural Clubs the Sta.e
and Centennial Grange, the convention of
Montgomery county farmers, at Sandy
Spring, the prominent farmers of Hartford
county and the State Agricultural College,
the Experiment Station and the DAIRY
division OF the Department of Agriculture
The live stock sanitary board OF the State
joined with the farmers and assisted
greatly. The law as now in force is but
part Of what was considered necessary
This new law calls for the registration
with the Live Stock Sanitary Board of all
herds OF mich COWS when their product is
sold in the larger cities and towns of the
State. This will give the board some very
useiul HUI uldllOD anu ne tne means or
inspecting in a business-like way the
premises OF these milk herds. The inspec
ton is for the purpose of seeing that some
absolutely necessary regulations of ventila-
ton, feed and cleanliness, as laid down in
the law are obeyed. These requirements
are not excessive by any means, and yet as
they stand they will surely drive from
the milk business great number of daily
herds. The public can only get slight
idea of the situation by learning that when
man keeping milk cows is required to
whtewash his stable twice a year. to keep
the COWS themselves clean, to prevent the
great accumulation Of manure in the stable
and to feed them ON foods that will not
injure the teeth or the public that CON
sumes the milk, and under these condl-
tons dairying does not pay, and many will
stop. Many pest holes will be cleaned out.
The standard Of the milk will be improved
in its heaIthfulness.
