CHAPTER XVI.

lDLOYD CARSON was a phlegmatic
young man, but he swore an as
tOnished oath when he saw Billy
Louise galloplng along the lane that
led nowhere except to the womanless
abode of Samuel Seabeck. He walked
very fast to the stable, which was the
first logical stopping place, and so he
met Billy Louise before she had time
to %dismount, even suppOsing she in
tend to do so.
"Hello, Floyd Is Mr.. Seabeck at
homer"
"Sure. Get off. and I'll put up your
horse. We're just through eatin', but
our grub carpenter will rustic some
thing for yuh, all right"
mo, l can't stop this time. I'm not
hungry, anyway. Just give a yell for
Mr.. Seabeck. win you? I want to see
him a minute"
Floyd eyed her uncertainty, decided
that Billy Louise was not In the mood
TO yield to persuasion. and tactfully
hurried of to find Seabeck without
shouting for him-lest he bring others
also. who were evidently not wanted at
all. He took 1t that Billy Louise felt
some dlfidence about visiting a strict
ly bachelor outfit. and he set himself
to relieve her of any embarrassment.
Presently Seabeck himself came
from the d~irt-roofed, rambling cabin
which was his home and strobe down
the path, buttoning his coat as he
came. FlOyd's face showed for a min
ute In the doorway before he effaced
himself completely, and not another
mar was In sight anywhere. Billy Lou
Use was grateful to circumstance; she
had dreaded this visit, though not for
the reason Floyd Carson believed.
"How de do, Miss Macdonald? Pref

weather breeder. The winds trying to
change. l notice"
"Yes. and so l mustn't stop. Could
you ride part way home with me, Mr..
Seabeck? want to talk with you
about something. And 1 can't stop a
minute. l must get home"
"Why, certainly, I'll go. II you1l
wait just a minute while l saddle up
or If you'd rather ride on, I'll overtake
you"
"rll ride on, l think. Blue hates
standing around, and he's a little warm,
too. You're awfully good, Mr.. Sea-
beck"
"Oh. not at all !" Seabeck stubbed
his toe on the stable doorsin In his
confusion at the praise. "rn be right
along, Don as I can slip a saddle on"
He disappeared, and Billy Louise
turned and Hoped slowly down the
lane.

Use of Bran and Shorts in Lieu
of Wheat Flour.

Bran and shorts are being
widely used throughout the
country in lieu of white wheat
flour. Shorts, particularly may
be used practically the same
as flour without any other flour
ingredient, and the resulting
breads are excellent. At most
not to exceed Is to 20 per cent
wheat flour is needed with
either bran or shorts to pro-
duce most excellent breads.
Some make splendid bread
from shorts alone.
Neither bran nor shorts can
at present be purchased as a
part of the requisite wheat
substitutes to be taken with a
wheat flour purchase, but they
can be purchased separately
and no substitutes need be pur-
chased with either of them.
The use of bran and shorts gem
orally instead of wheat flour
will entirely do away with the
burden of paying high prices for
wheat substitutes. The food
administration earnestly urges
everyone to give them a trial.
