Say" he began pointblank to Rosa mund, "be you any relation to Abijah Gale? l believe his mother was a Nettleton."
 Rosamund glared, and Hall, seizing the happy chance, had already begun to edge off, with mumbled some thing about duties and guests. People had. in truth. begun to arrive and the place was filling rapidly. The musi- clans had begun to play; Flodie looked in, with distressed face, and beck oned. Still Rosamund held him by the sleeve.
 Jonas fired again. "Aip't never been down Branford way, have ye? Say, you ought to run down to our village some time, miss, and git a mess O clans. We got some fust-class Holsters down home. Know it?'
 Rosamund turned the full glory of her gaze upon him. "Oh, yes." she said sweetly, q can easily believe that!"
 But alas for her irony! This indul- gence had cost her her prey. Hall was already across the room, and Jonas clung like a leech. She could not, with all her insolence, detach him.

GUARD AGAINST MUSTY OATS
When Fed Continuously There Is Like lihood That Severe Intestinal
 Troubles May Result.

Many state experiment stations are warning the farmers to beware of feeding their stock, especially the horses, musty oats during the coming winter. When fed continuously there Is great likelihood that severe intes- tinal trouble and probably blind stag gers may result.
 Blind staggers is disease caused by mold which thrives on dented corn. damp barley. oats and spoiled feeds of all kind When it is necessary to feed grain in this condition little common salt should be given with the grain at all feedings.
 Wherever the animals show any ten dency towards constipation, admins ter one-half ounce of fluid extract of aloes or one-half pound of Epson salts as drench. Clean hay and fresh wa ter and salt are excellent in easing the effects from such grain.

CHAPTER XII.

Guests were coming in punches, now, and kept Hall so busy for half an hour that he had no time to plan how he should escape from the other two women with whom he must 1n- evitably have matrimonial converse. So far, he was not particularly anxious Rosamund he thought he could dis. pose of somehow, putting her off till Flodie should change her mind; and from Carolyn Dallys and Mrs. Royal ton he feared little. He would trust, at any rate, to the inspiration of the moment. With four millions-and Flo die-he didn't much care what they thought of him. It was a caddish trick. perhaps, but-four millions! The end would have to justify the means.
 So, handsome and elegant and popu- lar, witty and well-bred, he laughed and gossiped with his guests, started the dancing, introduced one to another. showed his color prints, and between times, watched the mousy girl in white who had so suddenly assumed an ex- traordinary importance in his life.
 Flodie, merely bowed to and patron. ized by most of the guests, had discov. cred an unexpected friend in Mir. Dore' mus. He, finding her his only ac. quaintance, had stuck to her like a burr. Flodie liked him. At one-step he could not cut much of figure. but seated in the office with Flodie. where 1 she could keen an eve on Alfred and the caterer, it was not long before she felt impelled to make him her ally With all his elephantine wit and his manners of the old school, Mir.

 Flodie got up slowly. and looked into his kind blue eyes. Would you mind coming into the studio for a few min utes?" she asked. I'm so afraid we may be interrupted or overheard. want to tell you something"
 Mir. Doremus offered her his arm, and escorted her into the studio.
 By eleven o'clock both Carolyn Dal- lys and Mrs. Royalton had come. They had, in fact. arrived together, having shared Mrs. Royalton's limousine. This preconcerted action was caused less by friendship than mutual suspicion. The two ladies dared not trust each other out of sight, and each for fear the other might gain an advantage. sacrificed her own desire to be be- forehand with her plans.

STRAW SHED FOR LIVE STOCK
Satisfactory and inexpensive Method of Securing Ample Protection
 for Farm Animals.

A stable that will protect from cold weather and storms may be construct ed with little expense when straw is plentiful. Each COW, if to be tied. needs about fifty square feet of floor space to allow for manager. feed alley, place for her to stand and room to get behind her for milking, cleaning, etc. Young stock will need about half as much space. A barn 16x9O feet or one 32x45 will furnish room enough for twenty COWS and ten head of young stock.
 A straw shed for cattle should be seven or eight feet high. The construc- tion of such buildings is very simple. Posts are usually set in the ground eight to twelve feet apart, and strong timbers put on top .f these with poles close enough together to carry the straw on top of the timbers. Walls are constructed by making two walls two or more feet apart and packing with straw. These walls may be made of poles, boards or woven wire. as de- sired
 Hogs will require from ten to fif- teen square feet of floor space each in a straw shed. Fifty hogs will re- quire shed about 20x30 feet in size. It is better to keep the hogs in sep arate building from the cattle. The shed for hogs need not be more than four or five feet high. It is advisable to make the walls tight. using woven wire. or something equally good. so the hogs will not work out through the wall.

LIGHT KEEPERS FOR FEEDING
Buyers Estimate Doubling of Weight by Next July or August as Result
 of Long Rest.

The tendency to feed heifers still prevails with many cattle feeders. Ex- travagantly high prices. seemingly. are being paid for light heifers to 90 into the pastures and stalk fields to be roughed through the winter and then corn fed on grass next summer for the fat cattle market.
 A doubling of weight by next July or August is about the estimate these buyers are figuring on as ten months result of growth and gain. In casa any prove to be bred. they are no sps- cial disappointment. as the calf with tho mother present a good money n. vestment for the market of next sunf mer.

RIGS TO GO UP ON LEASES BE- TWEEN FLEETWOOD AND
 PIKE CITY.
OTHER OPERATORS BUSY
1t Is Said That the Mitchell Interests of Shreveport Will Also Enter New Gas Field After the
 First of the Year.

HleuW 1oS.
 Orders have just been placed with the Shawmutt & Fisher lumber mills for rig timbers for the two oil drilling outfits, preparing to sink test wells on 15,000 acres, recently leased to Jan. cowski and associates of Tulsa, Okla, and Burke and associates of the Pan. American Refining Company of Tulsa and Pittsburgh.
 The lease holdings lie between Glen wood and Pike City, 20 miles south. The first we'll will be drilled at Stan ley postoffice, small town on the Memphis, Dallas and Gulf railroad, 16 miles southwest of this place, and nine miles northwest of oil seepages at the Pike City asphalt mines.

M Burks of the Black Oklahoma Oil Company, with 10000 barrels daily production in the Cushing (Oklahoma) field, and M. D.

There was a case tried here at tho September term of the Jackson Circuit Court which is of general interest to lawyers, public officials and taxpayers of the entire state. It is the case or Ernest F. Leatham & Go. against Jackson county, and involves the right of the county judge to employ expert accountants to audit the county 5 books. The case is now pending In the supreme court and has been ad- vanced ahead of it's regular order and set for submission on January 10, 1916, because of the importance to the general public of the points involved i'll the case.
 It is alleged that when w. D. Me Lain was elected county judge he went to the three banks here and as, certained from them that they alone had on hand about S12,000 in county scrip, while the financial report of the county clerk showed an outstanding indebtedness of the county of about $2,600. The judge claimed that the
 
 counts was of no value to him in To- eating the discrepancy and ascertain ing accurately the financial condition of the county, and he employed E. F. Leathem X Co.,, certified public ac' countants, of Memphis, to audit the county's books.
 There was apparently some conflict with the accountants who came to do the auditing as the officers contended that the county judge had no right to employ these accountants on account of other provisions of law, and they further complained that these account ants, who were strangers to them, would want their books to check over when they needed them to work on at the time. The county judge made an order requiring the officials to sub init the books to the auditors. After the books had been checked over a citizen and taxpayer filed an intervention in the county court and remonstrated against making any pay ment on account of these services.
 The county judge then had an order made of record in the county court ratifying and approving his action as county judge in employing these ac countants.
