When Dan, on the minute OF two.

her custom, did not meet him. Miss

But when Dan came back into the
room later in his dressing gown for
breakfast, Ruggles said:
You'll have to send her back her

At the sight OF it beside the break

picked up the fragrant object.

ELECTRIC POWER FROM WIND
Economical Lighting Plants Can 30
Based on 1t, With Gasoline
Motors to Help.

There has never been time when
the forces Of nature were subjected
to such searching scrutiny to deter.
mine their availability for the devel
opment of mechanical power as they
receive at present This arises main
ly from the progressive use of cleo
tricity.
Among other things 1t is believed
that the wind can be utilized to far
greater extent than in thu past, espe-
cially for electrical lighting. With this
object In view the average state OF
the wind has been Investigated in Eng.
land. 1t is found that for approx
nately half the time the mean wind
velocity Is ten miles an hour, and for
about one-third of the time fifteen
miles. In the winter the average is
higher. The great djficulty arises
from the calm periods, which may
last days, or even week. but 1t has
been shown that economical lighting
plants can be based upon wind power
by providing gasoline motors to take
up the work whenever the wind fails.

SYNOPSIS.

Dan Blair. the 22-year-old son of the
million-dollar copper king of Blair
town, Mont, is a guest at the English
home of Lady Galorey Dams father had
been courteous to Lord Galorey during
his visit to the United States and the
courtesy Is now being returned to the
young man The youth has an ideal girl
In his mind. He meets Lily, Duchess OF
Breakwater, o beautiful widow. who Is
attracted by his immense fortune ana
takes liking to her, When Dan was
boy, a girl sang a solo at a church, ana
he had never forgotten her. The Ga
loreys, Lily and Dan attend LONDON
theater where one Lefty Lane is the star
Dan recognizes her as the girl from his
town. and going behind the scenes intro
duces himself and she remembers him.
He learns that Prince Poniotowsky Is
sutton and escort to Lefty. Lord Ca
lorey and friend named Ruggles deter
and other fortune hunters Young Blair
gees to see Lily; he can talk of nothing
but Lefty and this angers the Duchess;
The westerner finds Lefty III from hare
work, but she RECEIVERS and Ruggles ana
Dan invite her to supper. She asks Dan
to build a home for disappointed the
atrical people. Dan visits Lily, for the
time forgetting Lefty. and later an
pounces his engagement to the duchess.
LEFTY refuses to sing for an entertain
lpent given by Lily. Galorey tells Dan
fnat all Lily cares for is his money, and
u is disclosed that he and the. duchess
have been mutually in love for years.
Lefty sings at an aristocratic function,

Galorey and Lily together.

lent feed and has often been of great
assistance in bringing hogs through
spells of sickness.
There is no disputing the fact that
corn is an ideal hog feed, but every
practical feeder admits that better re-
suits can be brought ABOUT by feeding
ration that is composed of less than
two-thirds corn. 1t Is mistake to
think that we cannot afford to buy
other feed to mix with the corn.
Ordinarily it is a mistake not to
feed the hogs the liquid before the
solid food
Hogs will make from 10 to IL
pounds of meat, live weight, for each
bushel Of corn eaten, but because Of
this too many farmers feed too muck
corn.
The cream separator has greatly re-
duced scours in pigs because the skim
milk can always be fed while sweet.
When the sow Of good type has
proven herself prolific breeder, an
economical feeder, and good mother,
it is good plan to keep her several
years.
The mature SOW requires only food
for maintenance, while the growing
one needs food for growth. Further
more the older one will have an appe-
lite for waste that a young one would
not care for.
Exercise will help make that streak
Of lean and streak of fat that is de-
sired.

The spots commonly show fine and

The blight is caused by fungus

actual cost of improved seed is very
low compared with the increased
yields that come from its use.

vertised to produce 100 bushels of oats

have found that it pays big re-
turns to select one acre of the best
land to grow seed oats on each year
and to keep this crop for seed only
and to buy new seed every two
or three years to plant on this acre
plot.
Under ordinary conditions believe
that we should change oat seed every
three or four years, for there Is no
farm crop that will thrive better when
moved from one locality to another
than oats, or that will deteriorate
faster when grown on the same farm
year after year. OF course proper
seed selection will help to overcome
this tendency. but few farmers take
that precaution.
Closely linked with the good seed
question comes that Of selecting or
planting healthy seed, and have
found it good plan to treat all oat
seed with formalin before sowing, to
kill the smut spores and insure healthy

Change Of Habits Of Sea cuIIs.

1t is reported that the habits Of seq
gulls In some districts along ths
northeast coast of Scotland seem to
be undergoing remarkable change.
It has been noticed that these birds
have built nests in the heather and
bushes a few miles inland. fact new.
err observed before.
A disturbing feature of this inva,
sion is that the birds in forsaking thu
sea have abandoned their exclusive
fish diet and have taken to eating
corn, thus adding another to the
many feathered foes with which farm
ers have to contend.
