The Way Madge Broke the News to

 Dicky set Junior down precipitate- y. His face was black with anger, and I knew that he meant to dash out and call to account the man from across the road who had frightened me.
 I caught him by the arm, and held him firmly.
 "Oh, Dicky, don't say a word to him l' I pleaded. Let him go. See. he's walking along harmlessly enough now. I don't want to make him any angrier than he is. He thinks he has reason for his a>~er at me, anyway"
 Dicky was twisting his arm away from me, ignoring my admonition, but his mother placed herself in front of him in such adroit fashion that he could not move without thrustins either her or aside with actual physical force.
 Margaret is right, Richard" she said authoritatively. There's no use stirring Up a dangerous animal. going along peaceably enough now, so let him alone"
 H'The time to conquer a danger ous animal is when he shows his fangs," DIcky retorted. But, of course, if you two have decided he must not be disciplined, why I'll not butt in But who is he, and why the savage grouch he displayed just now?"
 I explained briefly that he was the man who lived across the road from the Ticer farm, and who had beaten his wife so savagely the day of our arrival there. Dicky listened quiet ly to my story of driving the little family to the hospital, and of the mans subsequent incarcerat tion in the jail for a day, and of his re- lease upon suspended sentence. For long minute after l had ceased talking he did not speak. Then he : asked a single question.
 Dicky Reassures Madge.
 Hes the lad whose horses plunged over Marion and Junior, isn't he?''
 "Yes," I returned, "but I don't think he intended that-''
 Just get one thing firmly planted in your brain, my dear" he retorted loftily, 'and that is, there's no limit to the deviltry one of those animals can evolve from his aboriginal in terior. He's evidently planted firmly in his cosmos the idea that you're /, responsible for his jailing. I'll just keep an eye on that lad He'll bear i watching, though he probably wont dare do anything until the memory l of his last adventure dies down.

SPOT SEES THE SHOW.

Old dog Spot was bewildered. When he, crawled under the canvas he had not dreamed that he was entering the main tent of the circus. He saw so many strange sights that he didn't know whether to bark or to crawl away and hide somewhere. Yet among all those people he felt very lonely. He couldn't see anybody he knew.
 All at once the bandsmen began to play louder than ever. They seemed to be trying to burst their horns-or themselves. And men in flowing robes, each one standing in a sort of little two-wheeled cart and driving four horses abreast, came tearing past the place where Spot was standing.
 It was a race, And if there was one thing that Spot liked more than another it was a race of any kind. He gave few delighted barks and ran after the gal1oping horses.
 Spot followed them twice around

the big tent. And just as he fell
 into a jog-for the race was fin-
 ished-he heard a whistle that gave
 him great thrill. He stood still for
 an instant. Then he dashed toward the nearest seats.
 moment later he was fawning
 upon Johnnie Green, who sat in the lowest row and seemed as glad to see Spot as Spot was to see him. Lying between Johnnie's feet, Spot watched the rest of the show. At last the circus was over. The Green family, with Spot at their heels, went back to the place where they had left the bays and the carry all. And in a few minutes more they were on their way back to Pleasant Valley and home.
 That morning everybody on the roads had seemed to be in a great

failed to appear Bedtime came. Still no Spot!
 Johnnie Green felt very sad when he went upstairs.
 He felt even worse when morning came. He had hoped that Spot would be in the yard, begging for his break fast.
 Johnnie Green was able to eat only "a little of his own breakfast And as soon as he left the table he went to the barn and harnessed his pony, Twinkleheels, to the little buggy with the red wheels. Then Johnnie started for the vil- lage. (Copyright 1921 by The Metropolitan Newspaper Service). Tomorrow-Spot is Hero. And Some of the Farmyard Folk Are Jeal-

Jimmy Gordon, the family black sheep and village ne'r do we'll, comes home after several months absence and received a cool welcome. The only pleasant greetings he gets are from Melody a not too respecta ble actress, and a dog owned by the local saloon keeper. Jimmy is stepson Of the Rev. Watson Duncan. Rev. Dun can however, ignores Jimmy but goes to the station with T. Elihu Banks the banker and village magnate, who is brother to Duncan's wife, making him an uncle to Jimmy, where the pair meet Sidney Banks, Elihu's son, as the latter alights from the train, gorgeous in fine rainment and leading a bull terrior by a leash"
 Jimmy and Carol Landis are in love with each other. Carol is the daughter of "Old Dave" Landis, owner of the Daily Courier. a run down newspaper plant. She is an amateur actress and because of her, Jimmy is ordered from home by the Rev. Watson Duncan.
 T. Elihu Banks, who is one of the leading politicians in the community, does his best to make things disagree able for Jimmy. One night Jimmy gces into a gambling den in order to keep his cousin. Sidney Banks, and Lloyd Jameson, a son of the local judge, from being feeced by a couple of crooked gamblers Just as he ex- poses the game, the police break in and raid the place. Jimmy helps Banks and Jameson to escape but is trapped himself. Judge Jameson gives him A hours to leave town. He leaves immediately
 Carol Landis leaves with a theatri. cal troupe. She returns to her home and is scorned by the residents. Years 'ater she returns as successful actress and is feted in the best houses Shortly after this her father dies and leaves the Courier to Jimmy Gordon. Jimmy takes charge of the paper and the townspeople try to ionize iim. He manages to obtain evidence to prove T. Elihu guilty of crooked politics and exposes him in The Courier.

Huh ?" he asked
 Jimmy's smile was diffident, al- most apologetic.
 Il wish you'd write up your little experience of this evening" (Of course the climax is painful. but I'd dwell on it rather strongly, nevertheless). Head it The Courier Returns T. Eli hu's Call!' Get it in tomorrow's is sue-but it's today's issue now-isn't it? I'll wait and go over it with you, when you've finished. live some work of my own to do' Newsboys were hawking the morn ing edition of the sheet containing Tivotson's account of his visit to the towns great man, neglecting to an astonishing degree the Gazette, T. Elihu Banks own organ, which fea- tured Wainwright's answer to the Courier's issue of the day before. In other years Jimmy's appearance upon the towns main thoroughfare, especially when Hanlon's was his des- tination, had always meant display of disapproval. but it had never been so vast and bitterly unanim ous a thing as it was now.
 | On this occasion when Jimmy fin ally neared the old Palace theater building he was forced to swing to one side of the pavement to avoid a knot of men which did not break k up at his approach. Judge Jameson (the title had chung to him since the days when he had served a less. com p1ex community as justice of the fpeace) plunged through the ranks toward him.
 "A damnable outrage, sir," he roared he spread his legs and blocked the passage of Manchester s newest journalist. "A damnably treacherous piece of business, sir, which, I promise you, shall be pun tished to the full extent of the law. I'll run you out of town.
 No you won't judge" he contra = Idicted. "No more than I will you unless you wait too long before sec ing the error of your ways-though live promised myself, often enough, that I'd do it for you, God knows.''
 Then Judge Jameson, falling back before the white-faced editor, tripped upon his own panic feet and came down full length in the gutter.
 The judge lost but little time in seeking out T. Elihu Banks that morning of his disastrous encounter with Jimmy Gordon.
 'I-I suppose you have seen this mornings issue of the Courier he ventured in voice grown so thin and bodiless that even he heard the note of fear in it. Upon T. Elihu 1t had the effect of a sharp-tined proddine iron.

SHERIFF. TO SUPPLY
TEMPORARY LICENsR
PLATES FOR AUTOS

Following suggestion of Repre-
sentative Benjamin c. Sheldon, OF
Medford, Secretary of State Kozer
has authorized Sheriff Terrill to dep
utize Medford and Ashland authori-
ties to supply temporary license plates
for automobiles. Representative Shell
don has written to the Ashland cham
ber Of commerce suggesting that the
matter be taken up with the local
police, John II. Fuller, secretary of
the chamber OF commerce, stated this
morning that he would bring the mat
ter to the attention of local authori-
ties. Part of Representative Shel.
don's letter follows:
Under a law passed by the last
legislature, the purchaser Of an auto
mobile must secure a Temporary H.
cense" and carry the same on his car
pending the receipt from the secre-
tary of states office of the perma-
nent license tag.
Secretary Of State Kozer sent a
supply of these temporary license
plates to Sheriff Terrill for the use
of Jackson county citizens. Under
such an arrangement, either the pur-
chaser or seller of the automobile
has had to trot over to Jacksonville
for these plates.
At the request of automobile deal
ers | took the matter up with the
secretary OF state suggesting that
the sheriff be authorized to deputize
some one, probably the chief of po-
lice, in Medford and also in Ashland
to handle these temporary license
plates. | am in receipt OF a letter
from Secretary Kozer stating that
my suggestion was acceptable to his
office and that he was writing Sher-
iff Terrill to that effect.

movement that would have suf'
ficient advertising features to bring
host of people from every direction
and from among all classes. II
would seem that it would be a good
business scheme for the owners OF
the present hotel to start the move
ment, calling upon the citizens OF
the town to take part in it. Now,
this brings us to the consideration OF
who is going to build the needed
hosiery. ii it is ever done at all it
will be done by the people Of this
town themselves, or largely SO, and
they can do it If they will. 1t would
not be a gift to the city or 4 contri-
button to a good cause, but an invest
ment Of the safest kind that would
doubtless pay a good dividend and
could, in all probability, be sold
within a few years for double the
money that it would cost to build it.
If not in Ashland, then where?
Everything is fixed and already pre-
pared, both by man and nature, for
this very thing which we have lacked
all the while; then why do we tarry
longer? Some one says, Wait until
times are better" Now, the facts
are that you never saw better times
in Ashland than there are right here
today. Every merchant in the town
is making at least something. That
cannot be said of other towns, Any
man or woman can go out in this
city now and find a days work at a
fair price. The whole world knows
that cannot be done in other places.
Any man whose credit is good can
borrow all the money he wants here
in less than ten minutes time. There
are towns and cities in America
where, no matter how good the finan-
cial standing, or sufficient the Sc
curity, money cannot be borrowed
from the banks. Our banks are
bursting with money. The time is
now ready. "One Thing Thou Lack

Valley Farms In
Need Of Fertilizer
For Alfalfa Crops

The ranchers OF the Rogue River
valley are thoroughly familiar with
the fact established during years of
experimental work by this expert
ment station that sulphur is very
valuable and necessary fertilizer sor
alfalfa in this section. Many OF them
do not realize, however, that in order
to obtain the best results the sulphur
should be applied in the fall. This
has been so thoroughly demonstrated
by the experiment station and some
of our ranchers that there is positive
ly no question about 1t. This Is the
best season of the year for applying
the sulphur, and would advise
every rancher to get 1T on as soon as
possible; apply it at the rate of 100
pounds per acre. This will give the
sulphur ample time to change into
sulphate, In Whlcn form tne pant
will use it next year. This con-
version OF the sulphur into the sui
phate is performed by bacteria and
is a slow process, requiring several
months; hence the great need of ap-
plying it at this time.
Some ranchers have not obtained
very beneficial results from sulphur
the first year because they have ap-
piled it during the late winter or
early spring. F. C. RElMER,
Superintendent Southern Oregon
Experiment Station.
