Besides strlnging 53,S92 beans yes terday (to get on the good side of the cook) loaded 2,295 pounds of auto- mobiles on to vans" writes a young soldier from Edmonton, who has only recently "got across" Those were the exact figures for my share. Twenty of us were got together yesterday and started loading cases of automobiles onto trucks. Each case weighed l.7OO pounds, and we got 27 on altogether. which took nlne hours of hard labor ("hard" is no name for it). The total weight loaded. you will see, was 45,eOO pounds. which makes my share as I said before. I tugged and hauled for all was worth, and haven't sore muscle today, so you see am in pretty good condition"

small amount of grain, or With nitrog- silage and some other cheap roughage In the form of hay.
 The principle that should be avoided in future feeding operations, accord ing to the advice of the department of agriculture, Is to reduce to a minimum the amount of high-priced feed and to make judicious use of cheap rough ages. In other words, instead of feed ing from 50 to 60 bushels of dry, corn per steer in the long feeding period. as was the custom in the past the Quan- tity should be. and may be profitably. reduced to 15 to 20 bushels in short CT feeding period. or the dry corn grain Cnn be eliminated altogether. ns the liberal use of good quality silage will furnish an excellent ration. The use of cottonseed meal, linseed meal or other protein-rich feed, even though high In price. is to be highly recom- mended, because the higher other feeds are, the more profitable becomes the use of protein supplement. Expen- sive hay may be completely eliminated in the ration by the use of cheaper dry roughage such as corn stover. coarse hay or straw.
 The department believes that by avoiding too heavy feeding and too high finish, and by following the sug- gestions given above, feeders should be able to feed cattle at a profit in spite of the high prices of feed and labor The recent statement of the United States food administrator. and the available reports from foreign countries, indicate that there may be great increase in the demand for beef, which Is encouraging to the cattle feeders of this country, and especially those who suffered losses during the past feeding season.

 Il give up!" choked Clair. "Ill mar " her"

 Isn't that what you're trying to make me do?" Clair expostulated as well as he could. Il don't want to. that's certain"
 Don't you see Ned" Vida interrupt ed Soothingly, he doesn't want to mar ry me. Your outrageous jealousy has led you into making mistakes again"
 I'm sorry" corroborated Blaney I've been under a terribly nervous strain over all this, and first l was afraid Vida was lost in the storm. I was nearly frantic till 1 got hold Of q rOWboat and came over. It was an awful pull in the sea that's running out there. But it's all right now. You must all come over to Fair View to see Vida and me get married this morning."
 Clair was listening to all this ill a sort of ,la2ed wonder
 Don't 1 have to marry herr" he asked
 Have to marry herr" echoed Bla- hey good naturedly. Why, you old rhinoceros, you couldn't trap girl into marrying you even if you dressed up like Mrs. Katzeniammer to please her.
 But she said''- began Clair.
 Vida flashed an imploring look at me Clair could still do good deal of dam age If he revealed all that she had said and done trying to win that wager from me.
 "She said" I repeated, brushing off and adjusting Clair's skirt, which had suffered sadly from his rough and tum- ble encounter, "she said that she knew she would like you because you were a friend of Mir Blaney's."
 Stop pinchinS my legr' roared Clair failing to get the significance of my signal and whisking his skirts out of my grasp. He glared at me bslefully.
 Blaney laughed. The picture Clair made obliterated the recollection of his jealousy for moment. Then he caught sight of my seal ring on Vida's hand.
 Whats that?" he demanded
 That" echoed Vida blankly, turn ing the ring on her finger She had for gotten that she was wearing it. That is q seal ring"
 "Yes, see 1t is," admitted her flance sarcastically. Your explanation so far is perfectly satisfactory"
 'I got 1t for you," she pouted. but I don't know whether to give it to you or not"

INCREASE SHORT-FED CATTLE
To Save Feed, Department of AgricuI- ture Advises Against Too High
 Finishing of Animals.

Prepared by the United States Depart
 ment of Agriculture)
 In view of the unfortunate experi- ence last winter of some feeders of heavy cattle, the continued high price of grain and the uncertainty of con- tinuation of good prices which we'll finished heavy carcaSSes now command, the United States department of agri- culture believes that feeders should concentrate their efforts on the produc- tion of economically short-fed cattle. Of course, this statement does not re- fer to baby-beef production, which is d speciality within itself.
 There is no question that for the last several years cattle feeders have been making beef too fat; that is. they have put more finish upon the animals than economy would justify. This idea was evidently in the minds of the advisory committee of agri- cultural and live stock producers ap- pointed by the department of agricul- ture and the food administration when that committee recently made the fol- lowing recommendation
 "We feel that cattle marketed at the present time in class 4 Qong-fed or export and highly finished cattle). and known as exports owing to the high costs of labor and feed. are not an economical product, and their produc- ton should not be encouraged"
 Not only has the advisory commit tee thus warned against the heavy feeding of cattle, but 1t is also under stood that the government officials di- recting the buying policies of the gov ernment will not consider themselves responsible for the prices of very fat cattle.
 Recent experiences by various state experiment stations and the United States department of agriculture have borne out the fact that good beef can be produced by using a relatively

We captured two of his sccOmplices on Huntingdon's island GfsSs morning. and when we get him we shall have wiped out one of the worst gangs of smugglers operating across the border
 At the mention of Huntingdon's is- land we all pricked up our ears. What connection did the smugglers have with the disappearance of Mrs. Green &nd Lipton s. Clair?
 While you were on Huntingdon's island" I asked, "did you see any shfnx of Mrs. Green?'
 why" began the officer, with pug sfed frown. 'one of our prisoners claims to be Mrs. Green. hut that is sgsfy sn alias for Mother Farrel, whose portrait is in the rogues' gal gery- recognized her at once"
 "Who is your other prisoner? I had aa tRkhng of what had really hap Fssned at Huntingdon's island since I had left it.
 '"The other one is a man masquerad- lug in woman's clothes. He refuses tu give his name, but I think he is Nan Maloney, a rather high class scsook who does smuggling only as q side line for grand larceny"
 'tT'm afraid you have the wrong par 'Gles-" smiled as l thought of Lip ron s. Clair's outraged dignity. '4The kady really Is Mrs. Green, and the gentleman is not Dan Maloney, but MT. L. s. Clair, a we'll known literary Sasn-"
 The revenue officers face fell, then suspicious look came into his eyes. How do know that you are not one of the gang yourself and this is mere Iy q trick to get us to release your pafs? What was Mrs. Green doing aver there anyway"
 'sShe was out in q small boat and was blown over there during the storm," Vida volunteered.
 Miss Green" the officer addressed per huskily. T cannot refuse to take your word. I'n have the prisoners brought ashore, and if the lady is real Iy your mother shall be glad to re- lease her instantly"
 Vida did not correct his mistake, but asked, How do you know I am Miss Greea?'

Many of the counties have already subscribed their quota. and it is hop ed that nine-day campaign will be sufficient to secure the quotas in all. Meetings are to be held in every court house and every school house of the state with good speakers and the committees enthused to complete their work without further delay. A report of the campaign will then be made to the National trustees at Washington, and plans be formulated for making the movement national in it's scope next year.
