CHAPTER VII.

Sidney and K. Le Moyne were din- ing together at the White Springs ho- tel. The novelty of the experience had made her eyes shine like stars. She saw only the magnolia tree shaped like heart, the terrace edged with low shrubbery, and beyond the faint gleam that was the river. The unshaded glare of the lights behind her in the house was eclipsed by the crescent edge of the rising moon. Dinner was over. Sid- ney was experiencing the rare treat of after-dinner coffee.
 Le Moyne, grave and contained, sat across from her. To give so much pleasure, and so easily! How young she was, and radiant! No wonder the boy was mad about her. She fairly held out her arms to life.
 An, that was too bad! Another table was being brought; they were not to be alone. But what reused in him violent resentment only appealed to Sidneys curiosity.
 Carlotta Harrison came out alone. Although the tapping of her heels was
 
 exchanged her cap for the black hat, Sidney knew her at once. A sort of thrill ran over her. It was the pretty nurse from Doctor Wilson's office. Was 1t possible-but of course not! The book of rules stated explicitly that such things were forbidden.
 Don't turn around" she said swift ly. "It is the Miss Harrison told you about. She is looking at us"
 Carlotta's eyes were blinded for a moment by the glare of the house lights. Then she sat up, her eyes on Le Moyne's grave profile turned to- ward the valley. Lucky for her that Wilson had stopped in the bar, that Sidney's instinctive good manners for bade her staring, that only the edge of the summer moon ShOne through the trees. She went white and clutched the edge of the table, with her eyes closed. That gave her quick brain a chance. It was madness, June mad ness. She was always seeing him, even in her dreams. This man was older, much older. She looked again.
 She had not been mistaken. Here, and after all these months! K. Le Moyne, quite unconscious of her pres ence, looked down into the valley.
 Wilson appeared on the wooden porch above the terrace, and stood, his eyes searching the half-light for her, If he came down to her, the man at the next table might turn. would see her
 She rose and went swiftly back to- ward the hotel. All the gayety was gone out of the evening for her, but she forced lightness she did not feel:
 Tt is so dark and depressing out there-it makes me sad"
 "Surely you do not want to dine in the houseY
 Do you mind?''
 Your wish is my law-tonight," he said softly.
 After all, the evening was disap- pointment to him. The spontaneity had gone out of it, for some reason. The girl who had thrilled to his glance those two mornings in his office, whose somber eyes had met his, fire for fire. across the operating room, was not playing up. She sat back in her chair, eating little, starting at every step. Her eyes, which by every rule of the game should have been gazing into his, were fixed on the oilcloth-covered passage outside the door.
 T think, after all, you are fright ened!"

To take the five year average as. a
1917 yield basis would not be war
ranted While the wheat crop in
many parts of the four states area
is in, splendid condition, adverse de-
velopment in other parts of the area,
notably in the western part, has
lessened total possibility. There is
not a condition to warrant expecta-
ton of 220,000,0 900 bushels. There is
a maximum 200,000,000 bushel pos
sibility.
Rye Crop Two thirds Average.
The rye crop IN these states is
about two-ttirds of an average.
Oats make a fine big crop nearly
everywhere. Barley is good crop
but does not indicate a bumper.
Corn and fiaxseed come to maturity
late and probable production figures
are less definite at this time. The
hay crop is very good In parts Of
the area, not so good in others. Po-
tatoes, barring serious adverse de-
velopment will not only measure up
to, but exceed all former high totals.
Current prices cannop reasonably
be taken for valuation basis. The 81
wheat price, discussed in Washing
ton, represents such a difference as
between quotations current in the
primary markets and what the
farmers would get, on the 81 basis,
as may occur between current
prices for other products and prices
ruling later. Failure to take into
consideration this price change con-
ttngency would make any estimate
valueless. ".
