Well" Roland interposed cockily,

again, his features gravcly composed.

put himself solidly between Nat and

wouldn't say a word about the offer,

He says you're a business man and
that he's often thought what a help
you must have been to me before you
left New York"
Nat laughed outright. Can YOU beat

"Yes?" commented Nat civilly.
"Yes!" thundered Blinky. DO you

To Kellogg's huge diversion Nat
struck an attitude. Il refuse to an

Aha! What'd 1 tell you?" This
was Roland's triumphant crow.

the air of cat eying a mouse.

himself up proudly.

He bowed politely. 1T was one of

There's no need to tell you, guess,

None whatever, Miss Lockwood.
Good evening"
Come, Roland!"
Arm in arm they left, with the
naughty tread Of the elect, while Pete
Willing lurched to Duncans side and
caught his arm.
Come long to Jail, Mish'r Duncan,
he said, with sympathy. "Mush bes-
sher."
You look after him, Pete" Lock-
wood turned to leave with a final shot
for Duncan. I'll tend to your case in
the mornin', young man, and I'll make
you wish YOU never came to this
town."
You needn't trouble. feel that way
about it already. Good night"
Lockwood left them, snarling. Nat
caught Kellogg's eye and began to gig

fast partially, beyond doubt, for sup
port.

Good night, Pete"
Well" said Kellogg after a pause,

luck than l thought there was in the
whole world. Come along"
Where are YOU gOing?"
First to see Lockwood and have it
out with him."
NO, YOU aren't" Kellogg laughed as
Nat locked the door. You're going
to leave Lockwood to me- I'll manage
to ease his mind. You've got infinite
ly more important matters to attend
to, and the sooner you find her the
better, Natl"
AS Duncan hurried homeward the
rolling of the thunder grew sharp,
more instant upon the flashes. When
there was no wind the air seemed to
culver with terror, as a dog cringes to

shaking and sobbing, straining him to

There came an abrupt, furious patter

A little later an anxious voice-old

CHAMPION OF THE WORLD.
HoIstein Cow In Missouri Holds Rec.
ord For Butter Production.

Missouri Chief Josephine, the worlds
record dairy cow, owned by the agri-
cultural college of the University Of
Missouri, has produced calves that are
valued at more than the champion
herself. Josephine Is years old, and
Is valued at $4,000 or more, and would
probably bring that figure in the open
market. "A
Missouri Josephine's Sarcastic, s.
year-old heifer out Of Missouri Chief
Josephine, Is her most noteworthy calf,
and is also valued at $4,000. She has
a milk record of 40 pounds day, test
ing 8 per cent butter fat, which is
better per cent of butter fat than JOS
ephine herself has shown, and more
milk than the big champion Holstein is
now giving. Josephine has reached
10 pounds Of milk, or SO quarts In
twenty-four hours, but at the end or
her years test she Is now giving
around 35 pounds day. Missouri Jo-
sephine's Sarcastic is showing form
that indicates championship possibili-
ties later. No price is placed on the
heifer, which will be kept by the agri-
cultural college for experimental pur-
poses.
Josephine's Chief Pontiac, another
heifer out of Josephine, is also very
good mixer, though her record Is moth
ing extraordinary. She is 4 years old
and is not on the market, also belong
ing to the University of Missouri.
Josephine's last calf, a bull dropped
January 13, 1910, is valued at $4,000,
and would bring that figure. He Is
typical Holstein, and will probably be
kept to head the agricultural college
herd of Holsteins. There is no price
placed on him for purposes of sale.
Another bull out Of Josephine Is
owned by Dorsey D. Moss, a dairyman
who lives a mile southeast Of Colum-
bia on the Ashland gravel road. The
animal is not for sale.
AS in breeding other animals, fine
dairy cow may drop calves that take
the wrong side Of the h use, or throw
back" to some strain Of scrub breeding
in the cows ancestry. All Josephine's
calves are better than the average, and
Missouri Josephines Sarcastic is quite
an unusual heifer.
Josephine weighs around 1850
pounds, while Colantha Fourth's Jo-
hanna, the Holstein of Rosendale, Wis,
the cow that formerly held the worlds
record, weighs 1900. The advantage
of 300 pounds gave the Wisconsin cow
additional stamina to stand the strain
of the years milking test to which she
was subjected. Josephine has smash
ed the worlds record for all periods up
to eleysn months, and has produced 81
1HSts of milk in a single day, and
averaged AZ quarts for six months.
She was one ton ahead Of the worlds
record at the end Of nine months of
her test She Is now letting down and
Is giving about 35 pounds a day, so
that she will need every drop of her
1000 pounds margin to break the years
record in addition to the others she
has already captured. Josephine may
aiss the years record by from 100 to
3O0-pounds, but not more than 300, ac-
cording to the men who milk her.
The test for the worlds record for
year ends January list. Joseph,
