Here's . New One;
They'll All Want
To Be Farmers

"A novel method Of reducing the
high cost Of living, making money
for the farmer and keeping the
young folks on the farm has been
originated by Colorado farmer and
the plan outlined to Governor Shoup
OF that state. The solution is q
simple one-just let the farmer have
two wives to the city mans one. :
Major Reed thinks the scheme so
good one he submits the letter,
which as written to Governor Shoup
follows: ss'
Governor o. H. Shoup: l am a
farmer seven miles south OF Denver.
You are q good state governor or
the people would not have elected
you by such large majority the
second time. You should originate
some good help for farmers, and I
OFFER you something to help the
farmers and you could lead all other
governors If you can get 1t made a
law.
ut is: Let city men have one
wife and farmers have two wives.
You see, one could help the other

boys to. work the farm and not need
to hire at high wages. Then, the
farmers could sell cheap crops and
make money and living in cities
would be cheaper, and many young
men would leave cities to be on a
farm and have two wives.
II tell you this argument about
farmers to be organized is all bosh.
A farmer needs no theories. / am
certain farmer can't get any help
unless it is born and raised on q
farm.
You would be greater man than
Lincoln II you can get the United
States to let all the farmers have two
wives. You see, the farmer would be
Independent Of hired help in few
years, both on the farm and in the
homework. A farmer could often
marry two sisters or good pals"
An Idaho farmers wife who saw
the letter suggested the women
might have something to say about
the matter. She thinks 1t is case,
not Of LET George Do It," but Let
Jane and Sarah do it," and they
might object. III.

| Cling helpleSsly in the crowd, borne
this way and that by the conflicting
currents. Hilary forced his way toward
her and dragged her into the alley.
There she broke down; she fell upon
her knees in the mud, rocking to and
fro and moaning.
Hilary bent over her. LATE saw that
his face was stern. 81 am going to take
you home," he said.
She looked up at him ~piteously. She
appeared to recognize him, but was too
terrified to understand. He drew her
to her feet and, with LATE on the other
side, they began to make their way
quickly toward the beach by a narrow
passage among the cottages.
But as they started LATE looked back
and saw, wedged in the crowd behind
them, Jean Baptiste. He had been try
ing to reach the girl, but it was impos-
sible to move a foot in that struggling
human torrent. He saw them, and his
eyes were dilated with impotent fury.
There was murder in them as they fell
upon Hilary. LATE shuddered.
His impulse was to wait for the man.
but he recognized that Baptiste was
beyond all reason and self-control. He
had misinterpreted Hilary's action /;
the only thing now was to elude him
and get the girl away before Baptiste
could follow. He was glad Hilary had
not seen Baptiste. He meant to say
nothing of it.
The three set out on their way,
Marie at first sobbing and holding
back, then gradually growing calm un-
der Hilary's assurances, and at last
going willingly. Her dress was drag
gled with mud, her fnery awry; she
looked pitiful and frightened. Hilary
felt a great wrath growing in him as
he looked at her. At last they gained
the shore road and presently reached
Marie's cottage.
She felt in her dress for the key
with shaking fingers. Hilary took 1t
from her and opened the door. "Never
go to that place again." he said stern.

face on her arms.

he said.
"She's had her lesson"

VII.
"Look to Your eoonln

Baptiste worked all the next Monday
on the boom, fiercely and unsparing o.
himself or his men. Hilary, a little
puzzled by the little mans sullen man
ner toward himself, attributed it to his
personal distress at what had hap
pened in Ste. Marie. He did not know
that Baptiste was aware Of his pres.
ence there, and felt happy in the con.
seriousness that he had done him some
service. Nothing would have pleased
him better than to have seer his suit
with Marie Dupont successful.
The Strengthening of the boom was
finished. The wooden structure had
been immensely fortified with great
trunks. dashed and nailed together,
resting In concrete which had been
nodded into the crevices of the rocks
on either side of the cataract. Hilary
examined and approved of the work.
1t seemed to remove all possibility Of
danger.
Everything depended on the first
minute after the jam was broken. If
the torrent could be carried off through
the sluice gates, in the main, the logs
would find an easy passage over the
dam into the lake. But actually the re.
enforced boom seemed to resist the
torrent without any likelihood of
breakage.
The charge vas to be exploded at
three in the afternoon. That day Hill
airy was kept busy In his Office, going
over the pay roll in preparation for
the October changes. Gangs of men
had been returning from the south
shore, and he had signed on a number.
He vas aware that some of Brous-
seau's agents had been at work at
tempting to dissuade them; however,
the men wanted work, and even
Brousseau could not hire them and
keep them idle upon his skeleton COM
pany at Ste. Marie. Hilary discov-
cred that the Ste. Marie enterprise ex-
listed only upon that Of st. Boniface,
and, like the parasitic plant, withered
when Its prop and ~sustenance was
withdrawn.
1t was two o'clock by his watch
when he pushed his papers aside and
strolled up the path that led through
the woods toward the gorge. Hilary
had left st. Boniface behind him and
was approaching the gorge, from which
he could hear the shouts Of the gang
making preparations for the discharge,
when he saw Madeleine Rosny riding
along the road toward him.
She had evidently been to the ste.
Marie territory, and, he suspected, on
a visit to Brousseau. The path was
narrow, with the descending bank of
the wooded gorge on n hand and a
steep, shelving ascent, overgrown with
young spruce and pine. upon the other.

Hilary drew to one side, to give the
girl passage. He was watching the
trotting horse, now swiftly nearing
him, and wondering whether he ought
to make any sign of recognition, when
he was almost thrown from his feet
by a vibration of the ground, followed
by a dull roar that grew into an in
fernal crescendo and rolled away un-
foreground in a prolonged reverbera-
ton. The charge had been exploded.
Hilary saw the horse rear, curvet,
and then, l%maddened with fear, leap
wildly forward. An instant later it be-
came clear that it was no longer I'M
der control. The terrified animal bolt
ed at full speed along the road to-
ward him, while the girl pluckily kept
her seat and pulled with all her might,
but unavailingly, on curb and snaffle.
She was a p%racticed horsewoman,
for none other could have kept her
seat when the horse went rearing
backward; but no amount of skill
could avail unless the beast were got
under control before the downhill into
the village was reached. There was
a gate across the track, which Hilary
had closed. Flung over this, it would
be a miracle if the girl escaped with
her life.
Hilary made his decision in an in
slant, made 1t with the roar of the
released torrent In his ears, and the
thunder of the breaking jam, the crash
