Each year the athletic association
buys blankets for those seniors who
have won their varsity rs" during
three years of their college course,
in any one branch of athletics. For
the winning of each letter, star
is placed upon the blanket. Orange
indicates football; slate track; green,
basketball; blue, baseball. The stars
are arranged in an arc twelve inches
above the center of the great ~
which occupies the middle of the
blanket. If man is elected captain,
he receives an additional star of the
color proper to the sport in which he
received his captaincy, and it is plac-
ed in the center of the great a."

ket, thinking only or Laughing Cloud
and his unfulflled mission.
He must have dozed, for he awak-
ened suddenly to see an Indian at his
side. The man threw back his blan-
ket and revealed the features Of
Laughing Cloud. Shannon's heart
leaped to think that the Indian had
been true to his trust.
Without word the Indian stepped
out into the snow, motioning to
Shannon to accompany him. Shan
mons legs had been numb, but he felt
a Jingle of blood in them now, and he
was able to limp haltingly after
Laughing Cloud. AS they advanced,
too, the fierceness of the storm
seemed to decrease, and Shannon
said afterward that he hardly felt the
sting of the snow in his face.
They must have proceeded about a
mile through the story when they
suddenly came upon an old ice house.
It had evidently been constructed
during the early months Of the win
ter. The March thaws had reduced

with the falling snow. Inside it was
warm and comfortable. 4
More than that, inside was charred
wood, suitable for reminding, with a
little tea and some frozen caribou
meat.
In few moments Shannon had
kindled a fire and was brewing a hot
draft in the tin can which he had
taken automatically from the saddle
of his dead horse. He offered Laugh
ing Cloud some, and also some of the
meat, but Laughing Cloud only shook
his head quietly and watched Shan
non eating.
After he had eaten and drunk
Shannon managed to restore the cir
culation in his legs with snow. He
had no doubt now that the Indian had
come to surrender himself, and it did

wanted to show his gratitude for
Shannon's trust in him. He knew he
would be there when he awoke. But
when he awoke Laughing Cloud was
gone.
And there was another man in the
tent-Helmsley in charge of the last
police post that Shannon had passed.
Helmsley was shaking him by the
shoulder and peering anxiOusly into
his face.

I have been riding hard after you for

when he went south. Got anything

Shannon produced the rest of the
caribou meat, and Helmsley devour-
ed it ravenously. Then he stretched
himself in his blanket at ShannOn's
side.

He paused suddenly, and for the
first time the suspicion entered his
mind that the Indian might have
changed his mind and fed again. Or
perhaps he had never meant to sur
render, but had only saved Shannon
out of an impulse of humanity, when
he had found him, half conscious, in
the snow.

WHILE the war cauldron see
thes and bubbles in England,
the hopes of bringing about
peace ultimately repose in the
United States. The neutrality
of this nation is one OF the
cheerful aspects of a conflict
otherwise barren of hope. This
nation owes an obligation to
civilization itself to keep out OF
the turmoil that throws its
shadow athwart a world.
Washington with a wonder
full prescience, saw that the
progress of this nation depend
ed largely upon its ability to
keep out of European entangle-
ments. 1t took excellent fore
sight to sense this in Wash
ington's time when the hatred
of other conflicts was still in
the hearts of Americans.
Today the wisdom OF this
action needs no advocate. 1t is
self evident and the unanimous
sentiment of the neutrality
first, last and all the time.
Never has the nation had a
greater responsibility then this
war imposes. Our h d s
should be kept clean so that
unhampered we can at the
right time bring the warring
nations to some common
ground where peace can he re,
stored.
The terrible carnage in Eu-
rope; sorrowing hearts in
homes of peasants as we'll as
princes; nations hving at each
others Threats who each day
lift their voices in prayer to the
same God; all these and a
thousand other realities only
afford to impress deeper upon
us our sense of duty in this
crisis. Bismarck Tribune.

A great many, in fact all farmers
are interested in increasing theiE
yield per acre of wheat. Only a few
are willing to substitute for their low
quality but high yielding variety,
one that is of better quality though
yielding less per acre, as there is no
great market discrimination in price.
One of the problems, then, of
raising better wheat becomes ques-
ton of how farmer can increase
the yield of good quality variety ;
or how can be increase the quality
of high yielding variety.
In 1910, 1911, 1919, 1918. three
varieties of wheat we're grown on the
Gooding Sub-station under practical
ly the same climatic conditions; with
practically the same amounts of ir-
rigation; but upon soil of different
fertility. The FIRST crop was grown
on virgin soil; the 1911 crop ON soil
that had been in barley and wheat
the two previous years and the 1913
crop on soil that had been in alfalfa
for two years.
The changes that took place In the
protein contents (protein content is
usually considered a criterion of
quality of these wheats are very
interesting. There was very little
difference in the protein content of
the original seed and the 1910 and
1911 crops. The 1912 crop. how
ever, showed noticeable decrease
and the 1918 crop very great IN
crease when compared with the or
iginal seed.
This decrease must be largely ex-
pIaisled by the fact that the 1912
crop vas grown on a soil that had
been rendered somewhat infertile by
growing grain the two previous years
and the increase, because the 1918
crop vas grown on a soil that had
been Put into the best kind of condi-
lion by The previous crops of alfalfa.
