Have a Good Dairy Herd.

No matter how small the dairy herd
of the farm is, the farmer should take
pride in having it a good herd. In
some of our western states the aver
age number Of milch cows on farms is
only two, three or four. But ii these
are all good COWS, the returns 20 the
farmer in series of years will amount
to a good deal. Many that own poor
cows do not stop to figure out what
they lose from having them. One
thing they lose of which they never
take an account and that is the profit
on a good COW that could be kept in
place Of the COW that pays nothing or
worse. Thus the COW that just pays
her way and nothing else is in the
place of COW that might pay $50 per
year or more. That possible profit is
part of the loss. and in ten years It
amounts to $500.

looking in the late summer sun. The
white glare. From the gulch covert,
the wiry marshal rode first. His face
bore it's wonted expression of good
humored alertness, but there was an
inscrutable CLINT in his eyes that
might have found place there because
of sure realization of the hazard of
the situation and of his accepting it.
Langford followed him quickly and
Munson and Baker were not far be-
hind. They trotted breezily across the
open in bunch, without words.
Where the indistinct trail to the house
slipped into the wooded enclosure they
paused. Was the desperate at last
really rounded up so that he must eth
er submit quickly or turn at bay? 1t
was so still. Spots of sunlight had
filtered through the foliage and fecked
the pathway. Insects fitted about.
Bumble bees droned. Butterflies how
cred over the ow-on-the-mountain. A
turtle dove mourned. A snake glided
sinuously through the grass. Peering
down the warm, shaded interior, one
might almost imagine one was in the
heart Of an ancient wood The drowsy
suggestions of solitude crept in upon
the sensibilities of all the men and
filled them with vague doubts. If
this was the haunt of man, a care
less, sordid man, would this place
which knew him breathe forth so
sweet, still, and undisturbed peace
Langford first shook himself free of
the haunting fear of deserted hearth
stone.
I'D stake my all on my belief that
he's there" he said, in low voice.
Now listen, boys. Johnson and l will
ride to the house and make the arrest,
providing he doesn't give us the slip.
Baker, you and Jim will remain here in
ambush in case he does. He's bound
to come this way to reach the main
land. Ready, Johnson?"
Jim interposed. His face was flinty
with purpose.
"Not eff the court knows herself, and
think she do. Me and Johnson will
do that there little arrestin' job and
the boss he'll stay here in the ambush.
Eff anybody's a countin' on my totin'
the boss's openwork body back to
Mary Williston, it's high time he was
losin' the count, for l amt goin' to
do it,"
He guided his horse straight into
the path
But, Jim," expostulated Langford,
! laying a OBTAINING hand on the COW
boys shoulder, "as for danger, there's

strongly; It would be almost impos-
sible for man to breast it. And there
was Mary-he could never go back to
her and claim her for his own until he
could bring Black back, too, to suffer
for her fathers wrongs.
At that moment, Sade gave a little
convulsive shudder and the water
rolled over her head. Langford slip
ped from the saddle but in the instant
of contact with the pushing current,
his rifle was jerked violently from his
hand and sank out of sight. With no
time for vain regrets, he struck out
for the shore. The struggle was tre-
mendous. He was buffeted and beat
en-, and borne farther down the
stream. More than once in the en-
deavor to strike too squarely across,
his head went under; but he was a
strong swimmer, and soon scrambling
up the bank some distance below the
ford, he turned and sent a resonant
hail to his comrades. They responded
Justify. He had been the only one un-
horsed. He threw himself face down
ward to cough UP some Of the water
he had been compelled to swallow,
and Munson, running up, began slap
ping him vigorously upon the back
He desisted only to run swiftly along
the bank.
Good for you," Jim cried approving
ly, assisting Langford's spent horse
up the bank. Coming up to the party
where Langford still stretched out full
length, Sade rubbed her nose inquir-
ingly over the big shoulders lying so
low, and whinnied softly.
Hello there" cried Paul, spring
ing excitedly to his feet. "Where'd you
come from? Thought you had crossed
the bar. Now I'll just borrow gun
from one of you fellows and We'll be
getting along Better my rifle than my
horse at this stage of the game, any
way"
The little party pushed on. The
longer half of their journey was still
before them. On the whole, perhaps,
it was better the crowd had split.
There was more unity of purpose
among those who were left. The sun
was getting hot, and Langford's s
clothes dried rapidly.
Arrived at the entrance Of the cross
ravine which Williston had once
sought out, the four men rode their
horses safely through it's length. The
waters of the June rise had receded
and the outlaws presumably deserted
holding was once more a peninsula

tance lay green, cool and innocent

DAIRYlNe WITH A SEPARATOR.
IL Makes the Work Much Easier and
Gets More Cream.

I have just had my first experience
with cream separator, writes q
woman correspondent of Farm and
Home. At first, or until 1 had some
experience in washing and taking
care of it as 1t should be, l thought
that it made more work than in the
setting of cans of milk in cold water,
but since using it for four weeks, I
find it is just the thing.
If one wishes to patronize the
creamery, it is much better to have
the separator cream to sell. One must
always cool the new separated cream
before putting it with other cream.
1t should always be churned at a
lower temperature than the skinned
cream. l think that sc degrees is
about right for summer weather.
If butter is not of the right color
it does no harm to use a good butter
color. White butter never looks so
nice as yellow butter even though 1t
tastes just as good. When one
wishes to pack butter to keep for
some time, it is best to put in new
jar, and after it is packed and tied up,
turn the jar bottom side up in a good
COOL dry place.

DAIRY NOTES.

Dehorn the calves with caustic pot
form on the head. If the operation is
delayed till the little horn becomes a
half inch long, the potash will prove
ineffective or there will be a growth
of deformed horns.
Feed extra we'll while the cows are
shedding. They will need feed to keep
up the flow of milk and an additional
amount to make the new growth Of
hair. Feed rich in protein, such as
bran, oats, chop, alfalfa, clover, oil
meal and the like, are needed.
The first thing to take into consid.
Grafton when feeding the dairy calf,
especially the heifer that is intended
for the dairy herd, is to see that it is
kept growing from the time it is
placed in the feeding lot till 1t has
matured. Any neglect that will cause
a standstill in growing will cause a
dwarfing Of the organs Of milk pro-
duction and the calf will not make the
producer she should.
An Illinois reader has some cows
that refuse to eat grain. Their tastes
can tell better than the attendant what
they should eat. We would have some
oats and corn ground into chop and
offer them this and, if they refuse,
turn them into the pasture and let
them make their gains on the pasture
ration. Gains on pasture are usually
the cheapest Of all gains and it will
mean more money in this questioner's
purse than to feed grain.

CHAPTER xxl.-continued.

The sun struggled from behind rain
exhausted clouds, and rollicking
wind blew up. The clouds skurried
away toward the horizon.
At White river ford, the men looked
at each other in mute inquiry. The
stream was raging torrent. 1t was
swollen until it was half again it's
ordinary width. The usually placid
waters were rushing and twisting into
whirlpool-like rapids.
What now?" asked Baker, the dep
uty-sheriff.

vouchsafed one of the volunteers, nod
ding his head wisely.

other
why, we can swim that all right"
put in Langford, rallying from his mo-
vlentary setback and riding his mount
to the very edge of the swirling water.
Hold on a minute there, Boss"
cried Jim. Don't be rash now. What's
the census Of 'pinion O. this here COM
pany? Shall we resk the ford or shall
we not?"

his blue eyes, "are you afraid? What's

"Nothin'. l amt no coward neither,
End eff you wasn't the Boss I'd show
you. I was just thinkin o'-some-
body who'd care-that's all"
Just for moment a far-away look
came into the young ranchman's eyes.
Then he Strengthened himself in his
saddle.
Il, for one. am going to see this
thing through" he said, tersely
what do you say, Johnson"
81 never for one minute calculated
on doing thing else," replied the dep
uty-marshal. who had been standing
somewhat apart awaiting the end of
the controversy, with good-humored
smile in his twinkling blue eyes.
Paul urged Sade into the water. He
was followed unhesitatingly by Mum
son, Johnson, and Baker. The others
held back, and finally, after short
consultation, wheeled and retraced
their steps.
81 amt no coward, neither" NUT
tered one, as he rode away, "but
plumb don't see no sense in bein'
drowned. I'd ruther be killed round

The horses which had made the
initial plunge were already in water
up to their breasts. The current had
an ominous rush to it.
81 don't care didn't mean to hold
over and let our quarry get wind of
this affair." cried Langford over his
shoulder Keep your rifles dry, boys!"
Suddenly, without warning, Sade
stepped into hole and lost her bal
ance for a moment. She struggled gal
lantly and recovered herself, yet it
weakened her 1t was not long before
all the horses were compelled to swim,
and he force of the current immedi-
ately began driving them down

so that if she went under, he would

Change Pasture In Midsummer.

The pastures at time of the cattle
being turned into them are generally
good. Very little grain should be fed
to cattle after they are turned into
the pastures. In midsummer, when
the pastures become short, the best
method is to change pasture.

ABOLISH STAMPED ENVELOPES

AS is we'll known. the government
has always been in the printing busi-
ness. Stamped envelopes have been
printed free of charge and caused a
great loss to the printing business
throughout the country.
The question has been taken up by
the National Paper Trade association
and the United Typothetae of America
end committees appointed to look into
the subject for the purpose of getting
the government to stop.
The resolution as passed by these
organizations is as follows:
Resolved That these associations
do hereby extend to the National Edi-
torial association. and all state editor
ial associations their hearty approv-
al OF their attitude in regard to the
sale of printed stamped envelopes by
the government. We believe a great
injustice is being done the small
country newspaper. which depends
largely upon its job department, and
the printing trade in general, ana we

PROGRESSIVE FARMING.

Between Pendleton and Athena
there are miles and miles Of land
suitable for intensified farming. Along
wild Horse creek there are scores Of
ranches where other things would be

Some day big change will be made
in the farming methods Of that Sec

be the chief beneficiaries.
Up to this time wheatraislng has
been engaged in almost exclusively.
