The Rim Rock Is no place for peace
able. decent feller. heard you tell
Bland you wouldn't like to join his
gang Thet'll not make him take n
likin' to you. Have you any money!"
"Not much." replied Duane.
"When the moneys gone how will
you live? There amt any work de-
cent feller could do. You can't herd
with greasers. Why. BANDS men
would shoot at You in the fields.
Whatll you do. SOM"
"God knows" replied Duane, hope
lessly. "I'll make my money last as
long as possible--then starve."
"Wal. I'm pretty pore. but you'll
never starve while l got anythln."
Here IL struck Buck agaln-that
something human and kind and eager
which he had seen In Stevens. Duane's
estimate OF outlaws had lacked this
quality. He had not accorded them
any virtues.
'Tm much Obliged to you, Euchre."
replied Duane. "But OF course won't
live with anyone unless can pay my
share"
Have II any way you like, my son."
said Euchre, good-humoredly. "You
make fire, an I'll set about gettin'
grub. I'm sour-dough. Buck. Thet
man doesn't live who can beat my
bread"
''How do you ever pack supplies
in here?" asked Duane. thinking of the
almost inaccessible nature of the val
ley.
"Some comes across from Mexico.
an the rest down the river. That
river trip Is bird. It's more'n FIVE
hundred miles TO any supply point.
Bland has mozos, greaser boatmen.
Sometimes, too, he gets supplies In
from down-river. You see, Bland sells
thousands of cattle I'm Cubn. An all
this stock has to go down by boat to
meet the ships"
"Where on earth are the cattle
driven down to the river?' asked
Duane.
"Thet's not my secret" replied Eu-
chre shortly. "Fact Is. don't know.
I've rustled cattle for Bland. but he
never sent me through the Rim Rock
with them"
Duane experienced sort OF pleas
ure in the realization that interest had
been stirred In him. He was curious
about Bland and his gang, and glad to
have something to think about. For
every once in while he had sensa-
tion that was almost like a pang. He
wanted to forget. In the next hour he
did forget, and enjoyed helping In the
preparation and eating of the meal.
Euchre. after washing and hanging up
the several utensils, put on his hat and
turned to go out.
"Come along or stay here, as you
want he said to Duane.
'Ill stay" rejolned Duane slowly.
The old outlaw left the room and
trudged away. whlstling cheerfully.

A Fine Tale of the open Country BY ZANE GREY

The outlaw had a bloody foam on his
lips, and he was splitting blood.
"oh, why didn't you say so,' cried
Duane. II never thought. You seemed
all right"
wal, Luke Stevens may be as gabby
as an old woman. but sometimes he
doesn't say anythin'. II wouldn't have
done no good"
Duane bade him sit down, removed
his shirt, and washed the blood from
his breast and bnck. Stevens had been
shot in the breast fairly low down,
and the bullet had gone clear through
him. His ride. holding himself and
that heavy pack In the saddle, had
been n feat little short of marvellous
Duane did not see how It had been
possible, and he felt no hope for the
outlaw. But he plugged the wounds
and bound them tightly.
''Feller's name was Brown" Stevens
snid. "Me an him fell out over a hoss
! stole from him over in Huntsville.
We had shootin' scrape then. Wal,

and he could not look the cheerful out

ane sharply.
"Shore. Y II see l can't keep up
with you. Brown, an his friends will

You've got to think of number one In

"What would you do in my case?'
asked Duane curiously.
"Wal, reckon I'd clear out an save

Duane felt inclined to doubt the out
laws assertion. For his own part, he
decided his conduct without further
speech. First he watered the horses
filed canteens and water bag, and then
tied the pack upon his own horse
That done, he lifted Stevens upon his
horse, and, holding him in the saddle
| turned into the brakes, being careful
to pick out hard or grassy ground thai
left little signs of tracks. Just about
dark he ran across trail that Ste
vens said was good one to take into
the wild country.

Stevens, with laugh.
All that night Duane, gloomy ant
thoughtful, attentive to the wounded
outlaw, walked the trail and nevel
halted. Dawn caught the fugitives a

a rocky little stream. Stevens fell {

CHAPTER w.

Two days later, about the middle of
the forenoon, Duane dragged the two
horses up the last ascent of an exceed
ingly rough trail and found himself on
top of the Rim Rock, with beautiful,
green valley at his feet, the yellow,
sluggish Rio Grande shining in the
sun, and the great, wild mountainous
barren of Mexico stretching to the
south.
No wonder outlaws were safe in that
wild refuge Duane had spent the last
two days climbing the toughest and
most difficult trail he hac ever seen.
From the looks of the descent he
imagined the worst part of his travel
was yet to come.

Trees Planted By Machine

Washington, June S.-A machine
which plants from 10 to Is thousand
forest tree seedlings a day is now be-
ing used at the Letchworth Park For
est and Arboretum, in Wyoming
county, N. Y, according to officials
of the Forest Service who are actin G
as advisers in the work. Previously
the planting has been done by hand
each day per man.
The machine was designed to set
out cabbage and tomato plants, but
works equally we'll with trees. 1t is
about the size of an ordinary now
ing machine and is operated by three
men and two horses. One man drives
the team while the other two handle
the seedlings. The machine makes
a furrow in which the trees are set
at any desired distance, and an auto
matte device indicates where they
should be dropped. Two metal-tired
wheels push and roll the dirt firmly
down around the roots. This is a
very desirable feature, it is said, be-
cause the trees are apt to die if this
is not well done. Two attachments
make it possible to place water and
fertilizer at the roots of each seed
ling. Another attachment marks the
line on which the next row of trees
is to be planted.
No cost figures are available yet
but officials say that the cost will be
much less than when the planting is
done by hand. 1t is stated that the
machine can be used Oh any land
which has been cleared and is not
too rough to plow and harrow.
