CHAPTER X.
What the Dawn srouoht.


The man rose from his seat at the
foot Of the bunk and. with restless
strides, began pacing back and forth
in the narrow limits of the little hut
The girl lay still, but her eyes follow
ed him. Her thoughts were keeping
step with his.
There's not much faith in the
world, that's true" she said presently.
And yet, that's not exactly the
worlds fault When people haven't
anything else to walk by, they have
to walk by sight" she hesitated q
little there. feeling for the words she
wanted. "It was SO easy" she went
on at last, ito clear you of the thing
they thought you did yesterday.
Couldn't you give them a chance to
believe the truth about the other
thing too? There must be something
you could reveal about that old charge
that would wash out the stain of tt
something that would make Tom sec
the falsity of 1t as clearly as do"
NO" he said; that was never pos
sible. It's less possible than ever
now"
That involuntary admission told her
much. II the thing she suggested
were less possible now than 1t had been
before, then. somehow or other, the
vindication must have rested in Perry
Hunters hands. But the hnality of
his voice and the dumb agony she saw
in his face, as he paced back and
forth beside her, prevented her from
following up the admission, or urging
him any further.
He pulled himself up sharply and
looked at his watch. TT will be day
light In two hours now" he said.
"Whsn II Gomez wen signal to the

yacht and they'll send for you and
take you away-you and this precious
find you've made. In the meantime,
you must go to sleep. You hardly
slept at all while l was reading"
Il hardly dare go to sleep-not
really deep asleep. II did I'm afraid
you'd turn out to be all a dream. and
I'd find myself back in my stateroom
on the yacht" She was speaking half
in mockery, but there was an under
tone of seriousness in her voice.
Think how unlikely 1t is that all this
can have happened" she went on
You said this morning you we're go
ing to leave us, and I watched you
go..How can 1t be anything but q
dream that you were hanging aloft
there in the sky, above the fog, ready
to come plunging down when l cried
out for help?"
Il told you once" he said not very
steadily. that one OF us might be
dreaming. but that one was not you"
You will promise, then" she asked,
that If I go to sleep. I'll wake up
here and not on the yacht. and that
you won't have disappeared"
Il PROMISE" he said seriously.
He seated himself once more at her
feet, switched of the fading light
from the bull's-eye and drew the
sleeves Of her coat across his shoul-
ders. Good night" he said.
She answered drowsily.
Warmed a little. and oppressed by
complete exhaustion. he fell asleep

Waiting for Dawn,

WAxInS t0f Dawn.
Cayley wheeled 30 that he headed
up into the wind and dropped. facing
the girl and with his back to her re-
treating assailant He had to drop al
most vertically in order to avoid be-
ing blown out into the sea after he
struck the Ice. Even as It was. he
went slithering down the CLASSY slope
toward the water, and only managed
to check his impetus by throwing him
self fiat on his face and clutchins at a
hummock which chanced to offer him
. precarious hold He had come down

monstrous wings, powerless for flight
but instinct with Tapping perversity.
cost him a momentary struggle while
he was getting them bundled into con-
trollable shape.
But, thanks a. much to luck az to
skill he presently found himself upon
his feet uninjured. He at once set
out, making what haste he could.
across the Ice toward where he had
last seen the girl. shouting up the
gale to her at the same time, to know
II she were safe. He heard no an
swer, but presently made her out, dim
ly. only pace or two away. His first
act then, even before speaking, was to
take out his pocket electric bull's-eys
and turn 1t full upon her.
TITS just to make sure you're not
hurt-that really got down here in
time" he apologized IT wish 1 might
have saved you the terror. but It
wasn't until you cried out that I
knew"
I'm not hurt" she assured him.
I'm q little dazed, that's all.-No,
not with fright, with wonder I hard
ly had time to be frightened. But I
thought you'd gone this morning, that
you had abandoned US Just as you said
you would. And yet, when 1 cried
out Just now, for help. 1t was you that
called to. And then you
came. out Of the sky, Just as l was
sure you would. For was certain.
with the same certainty one has in
dreams. Now, that it's over, l find
myself wondering again II you are
real. I'm not hurt at all"
Before he could find anything to say
in answer. they heard another shot,
mufHed in the fog, from the direction
of the Aurora, and in prompt reply to
1t, another volley.
Wasn't there firing before?" she
asked. Can any one be attacking the
yacht? There is no one there but
Tom. you know, and he's disabled
Can't we-can't i. get out there any
way7 The boat came ashore In is
right here"
Without making her any answer, he
carried the unwieldly bundle his wings
made into the hut and left it there,
then returned to her and offered her
his hand.
We'll go down and look for your
boat" he said.
Along the waters edge they
searched, aided by the little beam from
his bull's-eye, the sound of intermit-
tent firing from the yacht urging haste
all the while. But 1t did not take long
to force tho conviction upon them that
the boat was gone. Blown adrift,
most likely. was Cayley's explanation.

The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1911-12-15

While rubbering through the copy
hook of the editor in chief of this
paper recently, l observed that that
gentleman, who is something of a
poultry crank himself, had something
to say about the performance of
several Leghorn hens; one of my own
being included in the number. Now
l would not myself have cited this
hens record had l been writing that
brief editorial note which was intend
ed merely to correct statement now
going the rounds that two cross bred
hens at the Oregon Agricultural Col
Iege hold the worlds laying record.
For though my poor old "No. %"
led them all as layer there are plenty
other thoroughbred fowls beside her
with records far ahead of the Oregon
mongreIs. And the top liners are not
all of them Leghorns, one Of DR..
Taylor Houdans having a record we'll
up in the 1.-TWO eighties. Though
my own stock has been used with
much success in grading up dunghills.
/ must confess that [ could never see
the use of doing it and [ think the
experiment station men might employ
their time more protitably on many
other problems. AS thoroughbred
Matching eggs of very good quality
may be purchased at from S.. 90 to $40
per hundred, and the whole time con-
sumed from setting of egg to laying
age of fowl considerably less than one
year, l can't see why anyone should
be under the necessity Of adding to
the number of mongrels already in
existence. That the farmers of the
country are themselves much more
practical and progressive than the ex-
pertinent stations is shown by the fact
that while the latter are throwing
away the taxpayers good money on
these mongrel making stunts. the

after their molt. By New Years a
good pen may be ready for mating up,
and a we'll developed, early Matched
cockerel is ready for use by that time.
And every pen of Leghorns should
have two cockerels heading it. TIC
depend on one male to head a pen
throughout a whole season is an i'm
provident action, to say the least.
On the best conducted chicken
ranches, stocked with superlatively
fine lot of fowls, the mortality among
the pullets in their first year of lay
ing is never under two per cent.
Many prosperous egg ranches, doing
business on a large scale, admit a
loss of ten per cent of their pullets
during the first laying year and the
average loss on we'll conducted poultry
farms is not under six per cent. The
loss of males of corresponding age is
several times as great as that of the
females. So you can readily perceive
how good a chance there is of losing
the father Of the flock and how foolish
it is to depend upon a single male
lasting through the season. l have
no breeding birds to sell and am not
actuated by trade motives in making
this statement I use two males
always, it possible, from the same
mating)in every one of my own breed
ing pens, changing them every third
day and keeping one of them with
the hens and the other shut up by
himself, resting. The percentage OF
fertility of the Matching eggs may be
somewhat increased by trimming the
fluff from around the vent of all the
breeders and by dulling the spurs OF
the male. The green bone craze has
noticeably subsidized and many breed
ers have discontinued the practice of
feeding it to breeding birds, believing
that it has bad effect upon the fer
tility of the eggs. This may be so,
and perhaps is caused by the large
percentage of ash contained in green
bone.
I have been asked my opinion of
"laying contests" by a number OF
The Ranch readers. That is pretty
broad question, for there is vast
difference in laying contests, and
many of them can hardly be called
laying contests at all. l have been
working hard for years to get a lay
ing contest a going under the proper
auspices, i. g., at state or federal
experiment station and under the
direction and supervision of the
officials thereof. At the present time
a daily newspaper in Philadelphia is
conducting laying contest and the
amount of benefit that may accrue to
poultry raisers in general from it is
indicated by the fact that-with the
exception of few that severely criti-
cize the project-the whole body OF

and does, "point with pride" to his
thoroughbred poultry.
While on the subject of farm
poultry, I want to say that highly as
l have always credited the modern
farmer with intelligence in the
matter of breeding poultry, I have
been good bit surprised lately by
the deep interest taken by many OF
them in one of the knotty problems
of poultry raising-that is, line breed
ing. recently put out small and
unimportant booklet = Brochure
our horse editor calls it, and may be
it is)-on pertain poultry topics and
find that the most intelligent COM
ment that it has aroused comes, for
the most part, from the farms. A
good many Of MY rural friends, /
find, have pursued Investigations on
their own account which have led
them to discard that fetish of the old
time agriculturist, yearly innocula-
ton of "new blood" through the
medium of strange rooster. If MI.
Agriculturist has bunch Of fowls
that is performing we'll he no longer
swaps roosters with his neighbor.
Not for Joe. He simply uses a little
care and common sense in mating up
a few of the best specimens of his
flock to produce next years rooster
himself. To quote from one farmer
letter, typical of large number-"I
had flock that laid very we'll indeed
but [ found that | had run it down
badly by the purchase of new rooster
every year, etc. - Note that he says

found it out for him, - for they have
not done a great deal to popularize
line breeding. He worked out the
answer for himself by putting his
thinking machinery to its proper
work. Another makes the same
statement in language almost identi-
cal and adds that be found a Felch
