Each In His Own Trail.

ONCE nothing In this world is abso.
y lutely immutable the human
emotions least of all perhaps
Billy Louise did not hold %changeless
her broken faith in Ward. She saw it
broken into fragments before the evil
dence of her own eyes and the frag-
ments ground to dust beneath the
weight Of what she knew of his past
things he had told her himself. So she
him. and her heart went empty and
aching through the next few days.
But, since Billy Louise was human
and a woman-not altogether because
she was twenty-she stopped after
awhile. gathered carefully the dust of
her dead faith, and. like God. she be-
gan to create. First she fashioned
doubts of her doubt. How did she
know she had not made a mistake,
there mt that corral? Other men wore
gray hats and rode dark bay horses;
other men were slim and tall, and she
had only had a glimpse, after all. and
the light was deceptive down there IN
the shadows. When that first doubt
was nodded and she had breathed into
it the breath of life so that 1t stood
sturdily before her she took heart and
created reasons, a whole company of
them. to tell her why she ought to give
Ward the benefit of the doubt. She
remembered what Charlie Fox had said
about circumstantial evidence. She
would not make the mistake he had
made.
So she spent other days and long.
wakeful nights. And since it seemed
impossible to bring her faith to life
again just as 1t had been, with the
glamor of romance and the sweetness
of pity and the strength Of her own In
nocence to make it a beautiful faith
indeed, she used all her innocence and
all her pity and a little of romance and
created something ever sweeter than
her untried faith had been. She had a
new element to strengthen it. She
knew that she loved Ward. She had
learned that from the hurt it had given
her to lose her faith in him.
That was the record Of the inner
Billy Louise which no one ever saw.
The Billy Louise which her little world
knew went her way unchanged except
in small details that escaped the no.
tice of those nearest her. A look in
her eyes for one thing; a hurt, ques-
look that was sometimes re-

had turned and fled up the path, wav-
ing him away up the trail. And, though
Ward never guessed. that to her that
kiss was a penitent vow of loyalty to
their friendship and a slap in the face
of the doubt devils that still pursued
her weaker moments, 1t set him plan
ming harder than ever for that stake
he must win before he dared urge her
further toward matrimony.
It's a wonder that the kiss did not
wipe out completely the somber mood
that held him. That it did not, but
served merely to tangle his thoughts in
a most hopeless manner, perhaps
proves how greatly the inner life Of

ASKS 100000 TO BUY SEED.

The secretary of agriculture has
asked congress for al appropriation
Of $6,OOO,O 900 to enable the department
of agriculture to buy and sell seed to
farmers at cost at a reasonable price.
1t is the purpose Of the department,
If the sum suggested is made avail
able, to take immediate steps to Sc
cure, test, and store at least a portion
Of the supply Of these seeds that will
be needed for this season. The seed
will be sold to farmers only for cash
at q reasonable price and it is provid-
ed that the fund may be used as a re-
volving fund until the secretary of
agriculture determines that the emer-
gency contemplated by the %apprOpria-
ton no longer exists. Under the cir
cumstances 1t is believed that it will
be possible to return to the treasury
the entire amount appropriated or at
least the greater portion Of 1t.

with its largely increased staff. It will
cooperate with all state agencies, es-
pecially the state agricultural col
leges, to bring about the planting of
more war gardens. to see that they are
maintained throughout the season. and
to insure the prompt consumption or
preservation for future use of all per-
ishables produced in these gardens or
otherwise. More effective assistance
also will be rendered in the market
ing of %perishable products through the
greatly extended daily market news
service of the bureau of markets and
the weekly reports of truck crop pro-
duction prepared by the bureau Of
crop estimates.

KEEP UP BIG POTATO CROP
ADVISE U. S. SPECIALISTS

The normal acreage of Irish
and sweet potatoes should be
maintained in 1918 notwithstand-
ing the large crops in 1917, the
department Of agriculture be-
lieves. This is especially true
in view of the necessity of re-
leasing more wheat for export.
Potatoes, both Irish and sweet,
are the most popular and most
generally used of the perishable
stable crops. The department,
through its extension and publ
cation activities, is encouraging
their greater use, especially the
use of the Irish potato, as a par
tial substitute for wheat in
bread-making.
The yield per acre can be
made more certain by greater
attention to the selection of dis
ease-free potatoes Of good vari-
cites, by treatment Of seed pota-
toes Immediately before plant
ing, and by the use Of sprays to
prevent loss from blight.

It, and he made her say Dear Ward"

his hair waved over his left temple
and how he looked when that smile hid
just behind his lips and his eyes, and
he made her forget that she had lost

MORE FOOD IS NEEDED, SAYS SECRETARY HOUSTON

In spite of the large production in many directions during l017,
the situation is not satisfactory. The supply of wheat in this nation
and in the world is inadequate Owing to short crops In preceding
years the reserves of a number of important commodities have been
greatly reduced. Whether the war continues r not the demands OF
this country. because of the increasing population and Of the needs OF
Europe. will be great. They will continue to be great for a consider
able period, even after peace returns. There will be an especially
strong demand made N this country for meats and live stock-Secre-

from the railway mail service merely
because they are old. He declared
that it was unfair to treat employees
Of the government who have been thirty
five or forty years in the service in such
a manner.
He pointed out that it would be
good business for the government to
establish the retirement system to
promote efficiency in government de-
partments by getting rid Of the su-
perannuated employees. Such a sys-
tenn, he said, could be placed on a
paying basis for the government.
Chairman Sims suggested that it
might be advisable to amend the bill
so as to give aid to those employees of
the government who have been dis
would, If the law had been in effect
have received a pension under it.
A. F. of L. for Pensions.
Frank Morrison, secretary of the
American Federation of Labor, said
that the federation had favored re-
tirement legislation for many years
and that its 100000 members stood
sQuarely behind the bill.
1.-The american Federation of Labor
in 1909 favored old-age pensions for
all the citizens of the country" he
introduced by Representative Wilson,
now Secretary OF the Department of
Labor.
Nothing causes greater anxiety to
men who must work for their living
than to be out of employment and
not to be making enough money to
care for themselves and their families
in old age. The government should
give equal protection and comfort to
all it's citizens.
AT present the government gives
pensions to the Army. the Navy and
the judiciary. On the whole those
employees of the government are bet
ter paid than the great mass Of gov.
ernment employees under the civil
service. The government should ex-
tend the retirement system to the en-
ployes."
Hopes for Further Protection.
Mr.. Morrison said that it was the
hope of the federation that legislation
of this kind would lead to further
laws giving protection to all the
workers in the land. He also said
that the federation believes that
every man and woman should live in
reasonable comfort, and that it favors
a common school education for all
children in the country and voca-
tional education.
will be more workers in the country and
fewer professional men," he said.
Representative Hamill, who has taken
a keen interest in retirement legislation
said that the democratic party has In its
platform a plank declaring for retire.
ment and pension system for the civil
service employees. He urged that it was
the duty Of the party now in power to
see that this legislation is put through.

Regards Bill War Legislation.

John s. Beach of the pension office
told the committee that the retirement
bill was essentially war legislation, since
it was imperative that the government
be run as efficiently as possible to aid in
winning the war. To obtain a maximum
efficiency. he said, it was absolutely
necessary to do away with the superan-
Euated employees.
P. E. Mckinney told the committee
that in the naval gun factory, at the
navy yard, some Of the older men
have great difficulty or find it impos-
sible to keep up with the standard
set for war work. They should be al
lowed to retire, he said. Some of
them are veterans of the civil war.
Mr.. Deviny pointed out that the en-
ployes OF the government have now
united in favor of the Mcclellan
Keating bill and are standing solidly
in support of it, whereas in the past
they had favored different measures.
He said that in his opinion the peo-
pie Of the country are in favor Of re-
tirement legislation for the govern
ment employees. pointing out that
eleven state legislatures have passed
resolutions favoring it.
