WASHTUCNA VALLEY

Many of our sales are made after
a comparison with old developed
high grade apple districts has
been made. The reason for this Is
that Washtucna Valley has per-
feet combination of conditions ne
cessary to winter apple growing
low prices and easy terms, togeth-
err with the finest transportation ia
cilities and irrigation system. The
soil, drainage, altitude and climate
are perfect; the three railroads
give splendid shipping facilities,
and the water supply for irrigating
and domestic use is inexhaustible.
These things all taken together
places Washtucna Valley so far
ahead of any other apple district
now under development that a thor
ough investigation always means

"Hurrah! hurrah!"
Hatteras was saved.
He owed his life to the man he
hated the most. What a storm of
conflicting passions this must have
reused In his soul! But where was
the emotion he could not master?
However. his action was prompt.
whatever his feeling might be.
Without moments hesitancy., he
wctnt UP to his rival, and said in a
grave voice:
"Altamont, you have saved my
life!"
you saved mine" replied the
American.
There was moments silence,
and then Altamont added:
We're quits, Hatteras."

when the doctor dragged you out
of your ley tomb I did not know

"Yes, but he went 40 miles over

What of that?"
Everything; that is the gist OF
the whole argument. 1t was not

Keep ii and welcome, but keep

Hatteras, equally angry.

The doctor did not allow him to

two antagonists might come to
blows. Bell and Johnson seconded
his endeavOrs to make peace, and,
after a few conciliatory words,

walked carelessly away, whistling

weather. On the 18th of June the
Thermometer stood at 81 degrees

had made good progress, and Hat

themseles impatiently at Duke, try
ing to kick him off, when Hatteras
started up right in front of them
shouting and chasing them back.
This was the signal for Altamont
and the doctor to rush forward and
fire, but at the sight of two assail
ants, the terrified animals wheeled
round and attacked Hatteras. He
met their onset with a firm, steady
foot and fired straight at their
heads. But both his bullets were
ipowerless. They rushed upon the
unfortunate man like furies, and
threw him on the ground in an in
slant.
"He is a dead mani" exclaimed
the doctor, in despairing accents.
A tremendous struggle was going
on in Altamont's breast at the
sight of his PROSTATE foe, and
though his first impulse was to has
ten to his help, he stopped short,
battling with himself and his preju-
dices. But his hesitation scarcely
lasted half second. his better self
conquered, and exclaiming, mo, il
would be cowardly!" he rushed for
ward with Clawbonny.
Hatteras full we'll understood
how his rival felt, but would rather
have died than have begged his in

He could not have held out much
longer, for it was impossible t

he must have been torn to pieces
But suddenly two shots resounded
and Hatteras felt the balls grazt

on, and throwing himself right IL

as he reached the spot, while the
