CANADIANS REFUSE
TO LISTEN TO BRYAN
Bryan Attempts to Get Hearing But
Heckling Breaks Into Pande-
mOniuM.

Toronto, Feb. 2S-William Jennings
Bryan was refused a hearing when he
appeared at Massey Hall here tonight
to address a prohibition meeting un-
der the auspices of the Dominion Al
lance.
Returned soldiers caused the dis
turbance by shouting various epithets.
What about the Lusitania?" They
demanded in chorus.
The first disturbance came before
Mr.. Bryan's entry, when the chairman
told the audience they were to be hon-
ored by listening to the fraternal del
egates of the AntiSaloon League
of American, lone of the foremost
citizens of our ally"
The chairman refrained from men
tioning Mr.. Bryan's name as long as
he could, but when it came out at
last it was greeted by chorus Of
cat calls and cries of eve do not want
him. The chairman appealed to the
audience. It was not good thing
for the city they were doing, he said,
"and bad thing for the cause we
represent"
Pandemonium Breaks Loose.
Then Mr.. Bryan came in and pande-
monium broke loose. Most of the
audience stood up, waved handker-
chiefs and cheered him, but the ans
wering boots from the gallery out
lasted the cheers.
For FIVE minutes Mr.. Bryan tried to
make himself heard, but it was too
use. The interruption kept right On

HeartacheS.

A Charlotte banker, out rldlnS IN
his car on Sunday afternoon, was
attracted by the sight Of miniature
soldier, little chap some two Or
three years old, decked out in uni
form with all the trappings Of the Of
ficer. He was such an attractive little
fellow that the banker stopped his
car and asked the father if he might
not borrow him for an hour and give
him spin about the city.
The father replied with voice
hoarse with emotion, and eye fixed
lovingly On the boy.
81 just can't bear to let him get
out of my sight today. l am leaving
for France tomorrow
The banker realized that he had
stumbled all unaware into one OF
those silent tragedies which are being
enacted on all hands today, and with
a lump swelling up in his own throat,
too, he withdrew in silence, and left
the father soldier and the boy-soldier

VALUABLE IMPORTATION
FOR NEWBERRY FARMERS
The County Demonstration Agent
EnumerateS Recommendations
Made by County Agents,
Council of Defense and
Food Admins
tratiOR.

At joint meeting of the state
council of defense, food administra-
tor and farm and home demonstration
agents, held last week at two differ
ent points in the state, the following,
among other things, were recommend
ed to the farmers for 1918.
1st. Plan to raise ample food and
feed for man and beast, and then
raise all the cotton you c9c. Corn
IS the first and most important food
crop. In 1917 South Carolina planted
to corn 2,313,O00 acres, producing an
average of 19 bushels per acre-a
total of 1884,, 900 bushels. Newberry
county planted about $4,000 acres,
making a yield of about $4,000
bushels. The government asks us this
year to plant an increased acreage OF
corn of 20 per cent. Crops should re-
eeive special cultivation and fertili
zation, so that We may have maximum
yields.
Gardens. Every farm should also
have garden from which some vege-
table could be gathered every day in
the year. Also, our towns and cities
should have garden clubs. Every

made to back up the men in the
trenches.
Potatoes: The potato crop, sup
plying very valuable food, should
receive especially good attention
Irish potatoes should be planted as
soon as the earth becomes dry and
warm enough. AS sweet potatoes are
becoming scarce, the seed or plants
for the next crop should be secured
at once. The merchants are urged
to assist their customers to secure
the seed potatoes and plants by plac
$lag their orders early. We are asked
to increase the potato acreage this
year 25 per cent above that of last
year.
Storage house for potatoes: To
further conserve, those farmers who
can should build storage houses. The
losses last year from using these was
only per cent, while the loss from
banking the old-time way was at least
SO per cent.
The county agent will furnish plans
and plue prints to any one who wishes
to build potato storage house.
Hogs: Hogs should be increased Is
per cent. No good brood sows should
'be slaughtered. If you cannot afford
to keep them, let it be known, so that
some one who can will purchase
them.
Spring Oats: Sow and fertilize
( some spring cats on your best land.
Treat with formafin to prevent
smut. Put one pint Forrnalin to 30
gallons of water.
Poultry: The average number Of
chickens to the farm in South Caro-
lima is Is. The aim is to at least
double this number of fowls per farm.
The poultry business furnishes at all
times very nutritious food.
Milk and Butter: Every farm should
be supplied with plenty and to spare
of good fresh milk and butter. The
milk production will furnish plenty Of
good food. thus enabling the allies to
receive more of the meat from this
county. With young children mill
is a necessity Don't SLAUGHTER good
milk producers. Grow plenty of sue
euient foods for your cow during the
winter and plentv of forage.

dition of a mark here and a mark

There, hang yuh, chew on that

three. He turned away and rode back
once more toward home.
Rather turned naturally into the trail
which ran up the creek to the ranch,
but Ward Immediately turned him out
OF 1t. we aren't going to overlook

and crossed the creek at a point where
it was too rocky to leave any hoof
prints behind them. He rode up the
lower point of the ridge beyond and
followed the crest of 1t on the side
away from the valley. When he reach
ed a point nearly opposite his cabin he
d~ismounted, unbuckled his spurs and
slipped their chains over the saddle
horn. Then he went forward afoot to
reconnoiter. He vas careful to avoid
rock or gravelly patches and to walk
always on the soft grass, which muf-
fed his steps.
In this wise he made his way to the
top Of the ridge, where he could look
down upon the cabin and stable and
corrals and see also the creek trail for
a good quarter Of a mile. The little
valley lay quiet. His team fed undis-
turbed by the creek not far from the
corral, which treasured Ward more
than anything. Still, he waited until
he had made reasonably sure that the
bluff held no watcher concealed before
he went back to where Rather waited
patiently.

things up till they got those critters

his cabin. But when they visit that
bunch Of stock again I reckon things
will begin to tightenr'
He was wary Of exposing himself
too much to view from the bluff while
he did his chores that night. and he
kept Rather in the stable; also he slept
very little. and before daybreak be

his eye peeled, as he would have ex-
pressed it. Also he left Rather just
under the crest of the ridge, took off
his spurs and with his rifle in his
hands went forward afoot, as he had
done every time he had approached his
cabin since the day he found the cor
raj and the cattle in the canyon.
In this wise he looked down the steep
slope with the sun throwing the shad-
ow Of his head and shoulders before
him. The cabin window blinked cheer
fully in the sunlight. His span of
mares were coming up from the mead
OWN the faint hope Of getting a
breakfast of oats, perhaps. The place
looked peaceful enough and cozily de-
sirable to a man who has slept out for
four nights late in the fall, but a glance
was all Ward gave to it.
His eyes searched the bluff below him
and upon either side. OF a sudden they
sharpened. He brought his rife for

the arms. He stood so for a breath or
two, looking down the hill. Then he

swiftly, too, so that presently he was
close enough to see the carbuncle scar
on the neck of the man crouched be-
hind a rock and watching the cabin
as a cat watches a mouse hole. A rifle
lay across the rock before the man,
the muzzle pointing downward. At
that distance and from a dead rest
it would be strange If he should miss
any object he shot at. He had what
gamblers call a cinch, or he would have
had If the nan he watched for had
not been standing directly behind him
with rifle sights in a line with the scar
on the back of his thick neck.
Throw up your hands, Ward called
sharply when his first flare Of rage
had cooled to steady purpose.
Buck Olney jumped as though a vel

n'You won't get me again, If that's

They went on, and presently Ward
was looking at their backs as they
rode over the ridge. He stood for
some time staring after them with
what Billy Louise called his gimlet
look. He was breathing shortly from
the pressure he had put upon his self
control, and he was thinking. thinking

CHAPTER viii.


NNE day late In the fall Ward was
~ riding the hills off to the north
and west Of his claim, looking at
the condition of the range there and
keeping an eye out for Y6 cattle. He
had bought another dozen head Of
mixed stock over toward Hardup, and
they were not yet past the point of
straying of their new range. So, hav-
ing keen eyes and the incentive to use
them, he paid attention to stock tracks
In the soft places, and he saw every
thing within the sweep Of his vision,
and, since the day was clear and fine,
his range of vision when he reached a
high point extended to the Three Bzttes
away out in the desert.
By sheer accident he rode up to the
canyon where the little corral lay hid
den at the end and looked down. And
since he rode up at an angle different
from the one Billy Louise had taken
the corral was directly beneath him
so directly, in fact, that half of it was
hidden from sight. He saw that there
were cattle within it, however, and
two men at work there. And by
chance he lifted his eyes and saw the
nose of a horse beyond a jutting ledge
sixty yards or so away and the crown
of a hat showing just above the ledge.
A lookout, he judged instantly and
pulled Rather behind the rock he had
been at some pains to ride around.
Ward was a cowpuncher. He knew
the tricks of the trade so well that he
did not wonder what was going on
down there. He knew. He was tempt
ed to do as Billy Louise had done
ride on and pass up knowledge which
might be d~isagreeable, for Ward was
not n to spy upon his fellows, and
the man whom he would betray into
the hands of a sheriff must be guilty
Of a most heinous crime. That was
his code-to let every fellow have a
chance to work Qua his own salvation
or damnation as he might choose. I
don't suppose there was anything he
hated worse than an informer.
He got behind the rock, since he had
no great desire to be shot, and he dis
covered that his view of the corral
was much palmer than from where
he had first seer it. He looked behind
him for an easy retreat to the sky.
line, and then before he turned to ride
away he glanced down again ~curiously,
A nan walked out into the center OF
the corral and stood, there in the re,
vealing sunlight. WArd's eyes bored
like gimlets through the space that di.
vtded them. Instinctively his hand
went to the gun on his hip. 1t was a
long pistol shot, and he was afraid he
might miss, for Ward was not a wiz
ard with a gun, much as l should like
to misrepresent him as a dead shot,
He was human, just like yourself. He
could shoot pretty well, a great deal
better than lots of men who do more
