Who had killed him9 What should
I do? These were the two questions
haunting my mind. and becoming Q
and more insistent. The light still
burned In the mission house, and I
could picture the scene within - the
three priests reading, or talking softly
to each other, and Cassion asleep on
his bench in the corner, wearied with
the day.
I could not understand. could not
imagine . cause. and yet the assassin
must have been D'Artigny. How else
could I account for his presence there

ment, his bending ovs the dead body.
and then hurrying away without
sounding N alarn. The evidence
against the man seemed conclusive,
and yet I would not condemn. There
might be other reasons for his 81
lence. for his secret presence. and II
l rushed into the house, proclaiming
my discovery and ~confessing what l
had seen, he would be left without
defense.
Shrinking, shuddering at every
shadow. at every sound. my nerves
throbbing with agony, I managed to
drag my body mp the logs, and In

The servant will see to that, only
let there be as little delay as possible.
All! here comes a messenger from

The fellow, one Of the soldiers whose
face I did not recall, halted in the
open door, gasping for breath, his eyes
rowing about the ROOM.

All were on their feet, their faces
picturing the sudden horror, yet Cas-
sion was first to recover his wits, and
lead the way without. Grasping the
soldiers arm and bidding him show
where the body lay. he thrust him
through the door. I fingered behind
shrinking from being again compelled
to view the sight of the dead man,
yet unable to keep entirely away. Cas-
sion stopped, looking down at the OBJ

to touch it with his hands. The SOL
der bent and rolled the body over, and
one OF the priests felt In tho pockets
Of the jacket, bringing forth a paper
or two. Cassion took these, gripping
them in his fingers, his face appearing
gray In the early light.

PLANT SOY BEANS.
A VALUABLE CROP.

Soy beans are a legume, and
therefore put the same proper
ties in the soil as clover and COW
peas, thus building up the land
in the same way as do all other
legumes.
Soy beans have not been gem
orally known in this country but
a few years, and like everything
that is new there have been
many mistakes made in their
USES and in the selection Of the
proper varieties.
There are several hundred va
rietics of these beans, but only
few of these have been grown
extensively enough for the seed
20 be ON the general market.
However You can secure from
most any good dealer the varie-
ties best adapted 10 our con-
dItiOns.
The varieties are Mammoth
Yellow, large yellow beans, TAX
ing from so TO 200 days to ma
hure, and does not mature in this
climate, but may be planted in
the corn, and will furnish a large
amount of hay feed after the
corn is planted.
The Son is also a yellow bean
and natures in 100 or ll5 days.
This bean is more adapted to
planting with the corn as il will
mature with the corn.
Ebony or Black Beauty is a
80 day bean aud will mature il
planted in the corn at the last
cultivation.
Harberlandt IS another To-day
bean found on the general mar
ket.
Soy beans are richer than peas
in food value and furnish almost
three times the amount of feed
that peas do under the same
conditions.
Soy beans weigh so pounds e
the bushel and one bushel will
drill three acres in rows twenty
inches apart, or about eight OF
nine acres with the corn. The
beans yield from ten to thirty
bushels TO the acre, and there j
good sale for mature seed Of
good varieties.
