Houston says he sees no deterioration
in Agriculture in America. He says:
"The advance in Agriculture has re-
vealed itself not so much in the ex-
pansion of the staple commodities
as in the greater diversity Of crops,
in the rise of the minor crops to
larger proportion, and the available
ty of supplies throughout the year.
The yield per acre of crop production
in the United States has gradually
increased"

HIS DISCOVERY
BY JACK LAYTON.

Torrents of rain caught Brant in his
ear at the loneliest point of the road.
He had hoped to reach his hotel before
the clouds burst. Now, he decided to
abandon the rain-soaked runabout and
seek shelter n the old vacated house
glimpsed through surrounding trees.
He made dash for 1t and was re-
werded by dry space on the veranda.
rough French window he could
zee d low ceilinged room. He put his
hand to the window sash and it
slipped upward at his touch.
Ensconcad in the reclining chair,
he lit q cigar, drew a newspaper from
his pocket, and proceeded to make
the best of the situation. The storm
not relenting in force, the busy man
Of affairs lay and dreamed as he was
not permitted to dream in the life
which hurried. And the dream car
ried him back to boyhood days to
low-ceilinged room with freight flick
ering against its panels, room peo-
pied with those who were gone.
He remembered, too, youthful
dream, of aIwoman to be, who should
t6ll his mothers place and make for
him the sort Of home his father knew.
Hotel apartments satisfs6 his home
need, or he had thought the want sat
iisaed, until storm clouds had driven
him to this haven, and the enforced In
action in the silent room brought back
TO him strangely his memories.
! he decided to remain longer. Time
Fesuld not make the situation worse, 1t
nisht make 1t better. So he folded his
paper ard lighted a second cigar,
Emusing over brief article he had read
concerning a set of desperate poachers
who were supposed to be located some
where in this vicinity. Their secret
place of residence was said to be
stacked with stolen spoils. Sheriff and
troopers had been unsuccessful In
their capture, and the amazing thing
about II all was the fact that their
reconnoitaring scout was a woman.
An innocent appearing girl, the article
said, entirely allaying suspicion"
Brant thought he would like to meet
this girl; = he thought that he would
enjoy a part in bringing the creature
TO Justice. And asshe reflected, a
seeming panel in the wall slipped back
before his eyes and in the reflected
lixht from a further room he saw
girl framed in the opening.
The frst thing that he noticed about
the girl was that she deliberately
aimed q revolver In his direction, and
the second thing was her rare beauty.
The startling part Of the adventure to
him was the fact that the girl was re-
markably like the woman OF his
dreams, like the ideal woman In his
picture If home. The woman pointed
n revolver now at his heart.

'I had made up my mind to ask you
to 20 quickly" she said, but 1t may
be safer to keep you here. you might
come back again at time when l am
not prepared. There is a windowless
closet at your right; step in there di-
rectly, please, SO that I may lock the
door"
He was, in her eyes. Of course, an
agent to bring her companions to JUS
tice. As he looked again into the
girls purposeful eyes. Brant consid-
cred It best to pretend prompt obedi-
epce to her command. II. In some
way he might outwit her. he would
be able to find the solution Of the diff
fculty.
After that one glance he was,
strangely enough, not eager to bring
the girl to punishment She was, he
reflected savagely, but tool in the
hands Of the desperadoes who DOM
mated her. Then with sudden daring
Brant rushed across the floor in the
darkness and caught tie girl of
guard, dashing the pistol from her
nerveless hand. Firmly he held her
IN his arms, until In the hickering light
from the farther room he saw terror
gather and grow in her eyes, then with
a low, sobbing breath, the girl tainted
against his own fast throbbing heart.
When he carried her through the
door panel into the lighted room he
found there a sort Of compact living
apartment, kitchen utensils, an oil
stove, dresser, a cot bed. And near
the widest window some half finished
sketches, paint brushes close by. The
lovely girl at last opened her trembling
eyelids.
81 know" she breathed, you are
one of those horrible poachers-hid-
den near here. I read 1t in the paper.
I got out my revolver when saw you
come through the window. Then /
thought I'd better take the advantage.
But I've never fired-a-revolver-and
I was afraid. I'm not as brave as l
thought-if you will 60 away-quickly.
mi promise-not to give information"
"Great Scott!" cried Brant. I'm
not a poacher-girl. I'm the man who
owns this house-used to live here
when was a kid. Can't bear to sell
the old place, always hoping to have
1t fixed up some day-for my home.
But how did you happen to be here
he paused perplexedly.
"Why," murmured the lovely girl,
the color came flooding back to her
face, 81 am the poacher, I guess. after
all. You see. had put little tent
near by so that I might sketch the
garden. The vacant house seemed so
much more secure thought 1t wouldn't
matter If I moved in for few days.

CAPORETTO DISASTER
EXPLAINED BY ITALIANS

ROME, July 26 (by the Associated
Press).-The findings of the govern
ment commission appointed to in
quire into the caporetto disaster, in
October, 1917. when the Italian line
was broken by the great Austro-Ger-
man attack, were published here to-
day.
The commissions report attributes
the Italian defeat to three sets of
causes, which were:
First, the powerful influence Of un-
favorable propaganda which seriously
affected the morale of the Italian
troops.
Second. political meddling with mill
tary plans. Z. {
Third, the m,litary's lack of vision,
necessary in modern warfare, under
estimation of the enemy forces, and
lack of preparation and material.

SCARCITY OF LABOR
HOLDS UP HIGHWAY WORK

The scarcity OF labor and the un-
willingness OF contractors to make
bids upon highway construction, on
account OF the low estimate of the
state office is seriously interfering
with the highway program in Nevada.
Mr.. Cottrell, engineer, states that
in the event the labor situation be-
comes more serious and prices con-
tinue to mount the department might
practically suspend its construction
program for the yeal- so far as new
contracts were concerned.
The highway department is deeply
concerned about the matter. 1t
had been hoped to have at least
81 .560.0C0 worth OF new highway un-
der way by this time and completed
this year.
