ar Can't you recall itY'
Not now; no.
"Then you must do the next best
thing-tell him you have reconsidered."
But 1 can't strike hands with the
corruption that is going on all around
me-" he objected Indignantly
"Of course you can't, and you
mustn't But the true reformer is not
made out of the man who drops things
and runs away. You must stay in and
fght-fght harder than you ever have
before, Evan; if not for the sake of
the larger right, then for your own
sake. Can't you see the wide door
that is open before you?"
81 can see and hear and feel when
the door is slammed in my face" he
qualified. How can I go on preach
ing the gospel of cleanliness and fair
dealing when 1 know that all this cor
ruption and trickery are going on be-
hind my back? What will the people
of this state say to me and about me
when the corruption Is exposed?
"Ah." she said, that is just where
you begin to grow one sided You
must go on preaching the gospel, but
that is only half of your duty. The
other half is to try to make the thing
itself agree with the gospel I fully
and firmly believe that you lost your
best helper when you refused 20 join
hands with your father. But that is
over and done, and now you must
make the best of the opportunities you
have chosen"
Patricia, you are an inspiration. If
l could only have you beside me to
give me my battle word l shouldn't
mind the odds against me-
Now you are tempting me- she
said slowly, land it isn't fair. You
know my weakness and passion TO
help. You mustn't tempt me, Evan"
What he would have said, with what
passionate pleadings he would have
pressed the advantage gained by his
appeal for the larger help, she was not
to know, for at that moment the Dor
there's were drawn aside, and the small
house mistress appeared in the door

hearted austerity, and then to Evan:
Don't you know that we keep coun-

the United States AS our readers know the
crowding of the cattle out of many section OF the
range by the sheep has been attended by much
bitterness and controversy. There are three pr1n-
cpal species of range sheep. The old Mexico
sheep the direct descendants of the original
Spanish Merinos. brought over two hundred years
ago by the Spaniards in Old Mexico They have
long legs; long thin body. and the wool Is fine
and thin They are hardy, excellent travellers and
will keep in good condition the poorest and
driest Of ranges. Often they outsell all other
sheep. for the meat has excellent flavor and
the hide is thin, firm and soft. These original
Mexican sheep have been largely graded with Me-
rino rams in New Mexico and southern Colorado.
The New Mexico sheep, they denominated.
smabodied sheep. and although they never
grow very large they get very fat. They bring
good prices for the same reasons that obtain in
the case of the Mexican sheep above mentioned.
Merinos are also to be found the range in great
numbers, many of them having been bred from
Merinos brought from the The lambs
shortlegged and not good travellers the
southern sheep, but they need not be. for Wyom-
Ing Idaho, etc. have, the average, better
ranges than are to be found in New Mexico and 1t
is in these northern states that the Merinos hold
sway.
Almost all range sheep are affected with scab,
though 1t is frequently held in check as to be
scarcely noticeable AS a remedy 1t is the general
practice to dip" all range sheep. and this opera
ucn, as carried on extensively a large sheep
ranch is decidedly picturesque Oftentimes it is
deemed necessary to give the same sheep several
dippings at intervals Of ten days, and occasional
y this dipping is done in zero weather On the
large ranches there specially constructed dip
ping watts with runways for the sheep as they ap-
proach and leave the watts, etc. Various ingredi-
ents used in the preparation Of the dips,
among the most popular being lime sulphur and
tobacco
AS is well known. the American market has be-
come the most discriminating in the world on
beef products and is rapidly coming to demand
corresponding superiority in mutton Conse-
quently farmers and ranchers realize the neces-
sity of selecting the best sheep. The value of i'm
proved blood in sheep has come to be realized.

veyed on this side of the Atlantic for many years
and many farmer paid almost fabulous prices
for sheep having adaptation to anything except
wool production. Perhaps this state of affairs
due to the impression that SO long held sway that
the American people were pre-eminently a nation
of pork eaters and had little appreciation for good
mutton. Whatever justification there may have
been for this in the past It certainly ceased years
ago. depression in the price of wool

greater error than the impression the part

animals, can get along on scanty vegetation, and
consequently will Craze proftably semi-arid

of this fact there is in other countries than in the
United States 1t may be cited that recent stalls

$50 sheep per thousand acres. and in Scotland

United States are just now striving earnestly to

Will BOARD OF TRADE
ISSUE new BOOKLET?
Secretary Says There is
Need of One

1t is the earnest desire of Secretary
Clarence j. White, of the Board of
Trade, to be able soon to issue a
new booklet giving information to
prospective land. owners and othe
of the resources and possibilities of
Americas and Sumter county
The supply of the old booklets,
which We're issued some time ago, has
become exhausted. There is a spec
ial need for this reason according 80
Mr.. White, for the issuance of a revis-
ed booklet, which will at the same
time enable the statistics to be re-
vised and the demand for such book
lets now felt to be met.
AS the neighboring towns in the
county reap much benefit from the
booklets which are sent out by the To-
cal Board of Trade, it is the intention
of Mr.. White to ask these towns, sucn
as Leslie, DeSoto, Plains and Others,
to contribute to the fund used for
the purpose of issuing the booklet. 1t
is with this end in view that funds
for the issuance of the booklet will
be sought.
In return for the contributions that
may be obtained from the towns out
side the city, it is planned to insert
page ads especially relating to the
