Billy Louise felt like putting out her
tongue at him for the cool remoteness
of his zone. 1t would serve him right
to ride Oil and let him break his neck
over the blum if he wanted to- She
shut her teeth together and turned her
face away from him.
SO, in silence and with no very good
feeling between them, they went pre-
cariously down the steep hill (the hill
up which Marthy and the oxen and
Jase had toiled so laboriOusly twenty
seven years before and across the tiny

LARGEST RECORD FOR MILK
Cow High In Flesh at caIvlng Time
Gives Much Richer MIX for Long
Period Than When Thin.

Missouri investigators have shown
chat a cow high In flesh at calving
time gives very much richer milk for
some time than would be the case
were she thin. This knowledge IL
nOw made use Of by every breeder of
dairy cattle who desires to make the
largest possible record for milk and
butter fat production.
Another interesting discovery is that
when COW is underfed that tempo
rarily she gives richer milk rather
than thinner as might be expected.
This is of great Importance in connec.
ton with making tests Of cows and
failure to understand this effect has
resulted In wrong conclusions from
many experiments conducted with
cows In the past.

"He says he wishes he could, but he
don't know where the moneys coming

How much IS it goin' to take?" asked
Marthy heavily.
"Oh, piles" Billy Louise spoke airily
to hide her pride in the importance of
the subject. Fifty dollars, l guess.

"And your paw can't raise fifty dol

Use Importantly.
Marthy said not another word about
debts or the duties of parents. What
she did was more to the point, how
ever, for she hitched the mules to a
rattlv old blackboard next day and
drove over to the Macdonald ranch on
the Wolverine. She carried $50 in her
pocket, and that was practically all
the money Marthy possessed and had
been saved for the debts that harassed
her. She gave the money to Billy Lou
ise's mother and said that it was q
present for Billy Louise and meant for
sc hool money" She said that she
hadn't any girl of her own 10 spend
the money on and that Billy Louise
was a good girl and a smart girl, and
she wanted to do little something to-
ward her schooling.
A woman will sacrifice more pride
than you would believe if she sees a
way toward helping her children to an
education. Mrs. Macdonald took the
money, and she promised secrecy-with
feeling Of relief that Marthy wished
it. She was astonished to find that
Marthy had any feelings not directly
connected with work or the shortcom-
ings of Jase, but she never suspected
that Marthy had made any sacrifice for
Billy Louise.
So Billy Louise went away to school
and never knew whose money had
made it possible to go, and Marthy
worked harder and drove Jase more
relentlessly to make up that $50. She
never mentioned the matter to any one
The next year it was the same. When
in August she questioned Billy Louise

RICHLAND WOMEN
ARE ORGANIZED
Ladies Show A Fine Spirit in
Agreeing to Work Thru the
KenneWick Red Cross

The meeting of the Richland Red
Cross in the park Monday afternoon
was we'll attended. The speaker Mrs.
w. L. Lemon, secretary Of the Yakima
chapter was in attendance and deliver
ed most interesting and highly ap-
preciated address. She had samples
of the various garments and supplies
which the Red Cross is supposed to
furnish and gave detailed instructions
as to just how the sewing was to be
done.
On the advice of Mrs. Lemon the wo-
men of Richland decided unanimously
to work under the Kennewick branch
as local circle, all supplies to be Sc
cured in Kennewick. This would be a
saving of considerable amount in ex-
press charges on materials and finish
ed goods, should the local women form
an auxiliary and get their supplies
from Yakima direct.
Over twenty dollars was collected to
apply on dues for the ensuing year
while every lady present signed up to
pay her dollar as soon as she could get
hold of her pocket-book. This, to-
gether with a donation already receiv
ed for $25, gives the Richland women
good little sum with which to pur-
chase their first materials and work
can be started right away.
A number of the young girls in town
had an ice cream, home made candy
and lemonade booth at the grange pic
mic on the Fourth and devoted the pro-
ceeds to the Red Cross. A number of
ways and means have been devised to
secure more money and the outlook is
that the Red Cross circle in Richland
will more than do its bit in Red Cross
service.
Otis Allen, who has been engaged in
the automobile business in Arlington,
for the past year, spent day in Rich
land this week visiting friends and
looking after his ranch north of town.
The pupils of Mrs. j. C. Quiner gave
a delightful recital at the home of Mr..
and Mrs. Harry Davis Saturday eve
ming. The little girls showed ability
and certainly are a credit to their
teacher. Several vocal selections were
rendered also. At the close of the
evening refreshments were served.
M. D. O'Connell, for several years
proprietor of the Richland Advocate,
has purchased the Herald, at Hermis-
ton, Ore, and left last week, accom-
panied by his son Harry, to take over
the plant. Mrs. O'Connell and the
other two boys will leave just as soon
as she can close up her sffairs here.
Mr.. and Mrs. A. G. Rosaaen return
ed from their wedding trip Saturday
and are making their home in the lit
tie red house in town.
Miss Ada Chalcraft, who has been
keeping house in Cheney for her
brother Dorsen, during the past win
ter, arrived in Richland Monday for a
short visit with her parents.
The band social Friday evening was
bowling success. The band is surely
a credit to the community and should
be loyalIy supported.
