at her side. She dropped down and
ran her fingers under the heavy cord
with which the girl was bound.

querled.

CHAPTER XIV.

There was gloomy silence In the
shanty until the horses hoofs could
be heard no longer In the snow out
side. Larry Bishop crouched low In
Jeremlah's rocking chair. pulling In
nervous tension at his fingers until
the joints cracked. He shot Polly
Hopkins furtiye glance but dropped
his thick lids before the unearthly ex-
preston In the girls eyes. She had
lost the look Of heavenly compassion
that had given cheer to the squatters.
As his mind went back to the spring
days when she had SO often smiled
comfort into his own aching heart, he
heaved deep sigh. The sound Of his
breath, catching in bis throat, brought
Polly scrambling from the cot.
Unmindful Of the morose squatter,
she began pacing the floor. holding Icy
fingers 10 her aching temples.
BEST take the pillows ofrn her.
Poll" muttered Bishop. "She'll smoth.
err If you don't"
The girl paused and threw him a
glance over her shoulder.
Get out Of here, you Larry" she
babe him In fierce emphasis. "She'd
better smother than get what's comm
to 'er. You an Lye hang around a
while till l call you. When I'm done
with 'er. you'll have to sink her In the
lake"
Staggering to his feet. Larry
brushed away the water that had
gathered in glistening drops upon his
brow.

Colorado Crops Increase In 1922.
All farm, garden and orchard crops
In Colorado this year will have farm
value of slightly more than 500, 000,-
600, according to present indications.
at present prices and what apparently
will be prevailing prices at market
time. Production Of most of the MAYOR
crops grown In the state apparently
will be somewhat larger than last year
and production Of potatoes, fruits and
market garden crops will be consider
ably higher than for 1921. Price Of
staple field crops are much the same
as those of 1921. but prices Of pota-
toes and late orchard crops are not
yet established. Y
Wheat again holds first place among
Colorado crops in acreage, with near
ly 100000 acres planted. R&bsrts of
county assessors to the State Immigra-
ton Department show more than l.
10000 acres Of winter wheat and
about 100000 acres Of spring wheat,
and the reports are not complete. 1t
Is not possible to estimate accurately
at this time what part of this has
been or will be harvested. Hay ranks
next to wheat In total acreage, when
all varieties of hay are taken togeth-
er. Corn holds third place.

possession Of her.
Dlstraughtly she placed the bar
across the door. making sure It was
locked. Then. creeping to the cot,
she gazed down at the wet bundle.
There. where she had helped Oscar
Bennett over dark rough places into
the light of Eternity. lay the dearest

She uttered an exclamation when
she saw lifting shudder 60 over the

completely filled her mouth: and Polly
grinned at her.
"Do you know what squatters do to
chickens they swIpe from you rich
folks?" she asked huskily.
Although she could not speak, Eve
Ign heard and understood She closed
her eyes. her face going drabber In
the Pickering light, but at Il sound the
weary lids flew open again.
Polly had stepped 70 the wood-box
and was picking up the AK. She
brought 1t forward, and smiling the
same sinister smile, showed ii to the
pallid girl.
This" was all she said, tapping
the handle.
Evelyn struggled: and Polly
laughed. wicked laugh, no more like
the ripple which Daddy Hopkins had
loved to hear than the bark Of wolf
Is like the lark's morning song.
Tears rose into Evelyn's eyes and
rolled down her cheeks. The smile
faded slowly from Polly's face. Ever
had excruciating agony touched her;
like sunbeam through a rift In q
storm cloud. the old Polly leaped up to
take heed Of another's hurt. This feel.
Ing she crushed down: but she put the
AK on the floor and squatted beside the
bed.
Scarcely had she done this before a
loud knock came on the door. She
threw the blankets over Evelyn and
went swiftly forward and lifted the
bar.
Larry. Bishop thrust the upper half
OF his body Into the room.
"Old Marc an his gang are In the

whispered hoarsely.

piled two pillows.
