HealdtOn Team Is

The Healdton Independents are claim
ing to be the strongest team of its
class in the state. and yesterday Wood
Dawson, manager. asked the Ardmor-
ite to carry a challenge to any class
d team in the state wanting a game.
Especially does Dawson want a game
with the Producers after the TO season
closes. Then Dawson would like to take
on the pennant winners of the league.
Confidence of the Healdton folk lies
in the record of the club. Twenty VIC
tories out of 81 games is the record to
which every Healdton man, woman and
child points Sulphur won one game
from Healdton, then the Independents

A variety of methods are being em'
ployed to carry on the better-sires
campaign which the United States De-
partment Of Agriculture has been veg
orOusly promoting in all parts Of the
country In Steuben county, Indiana,
a livestock survey was taken as the
first step in this campaign. Under
the leadership Of 7. A. Parker, the
county agent, the county was partially
organized by sections and returns
were secured from 600 farms, repre-
senting One-half of the total number
in the area. AS the reports were made
from farms In all parts of the county,
the percentages may be taken as an
average.
The dgures show that Of the bulls
kept 81 per cent were purebreds, 33
per cent grades, and 40 per cent
scrubs; of the boars kept 20 per cent
were purebreds, 80 per cent grades,
and A per cent scrubs; of the rams
AZ per cent were purebreds, 36 per
cent grades, and % per cent scrubs.
Twenty-three per cent of the poultry
was of pure breeding, the remainder
being mixed stock. With these figures
at hand the general livestock assocla'
tion of the county began a purebred'
sires campaign, using posters and lit
erature supplied by the United States
Department of Agriculture, and hold
ing local meetings at which talks
showing the value Of purebred sires
were given.

CONSERVING HAY IN MANGER
Horse With Chronic Habit Of Noslna
Out Feed Under His Feet Is
Decided Nuisance.

A neighbor once owned horse with
q chronic habit Of noslng most Of the
hay out of the manger and under his
feet as soon as it had been thrown
down. An animal with this trait is
both nuisance and useless expense.
Alfalfa, clover and some other hays
are not so easily removed, but wild hay
can be easily tossed out.
This farmer resorted to a simple
means to stop this annoyance. A green
log about four inches in diameter was
cut short enough to drop into the
manger without touching either of the
feed boxes.
This was supported, when outside,
by two ropes, each tied through the
halter-rOpe holes and around one end
of the log After the manger has
been filled the log is thrown into it,
onto the hay. There is plenty of room
for the horse to eat, yet there is NO
possibility of the feed being thrown
out. The device cured the animal
mentioned of his bad habit In about
| four weeks.

crop is subject 10 lodging, particularly
In seasons Of abundant rainfall.
Phosphoric Acid Needed.
Like the true cereals, buckwheat re-
spends to a liberal application of phos-
phoric acid. This is particularly true
in New York, since the soils of the
buckwheat section are universally de-
ficlent in phosphorus. 1t also seems
to respond to potash. This is to be ex-
pected, since the poorest soils have
been drained of their available potash.
While the total supply of potash Is
adequate, soils seeded to buckwheat
are often those which have not been
well treated in the past, and as a re-
suit not only has the organic matter
been depleted, but at the same time
the rate at which the potash becomes
available has been much retarded.
Lime is not needed, since buckwheat Is
tolerant Of soil acidity.
To FertiIize This Season.
Taking all of these factors into con-
slderation as well as fertilizer costs,
the prime essential in the fertilization
Of buckwheat this season is an appli

CHAPTER x.

The voice was strange to Gramont
yet he had a vague recollection of
having at some time heard it before.
It was a jaunty and impudent voice,
very self-assured-yet 1t bore a
startled and uneasy note, as though
the speaker had just come unaware
upon the man whom he addressed.
"Howdy, sheriff." 1t said. Didn't
see you in there-what you doin' so
far away from Houma, eh7"
"Why, I've been looking over the
place around here" responded an
other voice, which was dry and grim

alarm. Look here, sheriff, 1t wasn't
me done it! 1t was Gramont-"
There came silence. Not a sound
broke the stiffness of the late after
noon.
Gramont, listening, lay bewlldered
and breathless. Ben Chacherre come
hereH Gramont knew nothing of any
tie between Jachin Fell and Cha
cherre; he could only lie in the grass
and wonder at the mans presence.
What place" was 1t that the sheriff
Of Houma had been looking over? And
what was it that he, Gramont, was
supposed to have done?
Confused and wondering, Gramont
waited. And, as he waited, he caught
soft sound from the marshy
ground beside him-a faint "plop' as
though some object had fallen close
by on the wet grass. At the moment
he paid no heed to this sound, for
again the uncanny silence had fallen.
Listening GramOnt fancied that he
caught slow, stealthy footsteps amid
the underground, but derided the
fancy as sheer imagination. His brain
was busy with this new problem.
Houma, he knew, was the seat Of the
parish or county. This Ben Chacherre
appeared to have suddenly and unex-
pectedly encountered the sheriff, to
his obvious ALARM and the sheriff had
for some reason decided to arrest
him; 50 much was clear
Chacherre had nothing to do with
the "place"-did that mean the ada
cent property, or the Ledanos farm?
In his puzzled bewilderment over this
imbroglio Gramont for the moment
quite forgot the trlckle of oil at his
feet.
But now the deep silence became
unnatural and sinister. What had
happened? Surely, Ben Chacherre
had not been arrested and taken away
in such silence! Why had the voices
so abruptly ceased? Vaguely uneasy,
startled by the prolongation of that
intense stiffness, Gramont rose to his
feet and peered among the trees.
The two speakers seemed to have
departed; he could descry nobody in
sight. A step to one side gave Gra-
mont a view of the land adjoining the
Ledanols place. This was cleared Of
all brush, and under some immense
oaks to the far left he had a glimpse
of large summer cottage, boarded
