CHAPTER II.

Divorced
 During the weeks that followed, l must have been unbalanced by the strain of trying to keep my husband from suspecting that things were not just right with me. Because, out Or the haze that enveloped me, one thing stood up sharply in my mind-I must know the truth about him. I must know if he could actually go through with it; and all the time I kept eX- pecting that he would put a stop to the whole proceeding.
 If Jarvis had been a different sort of man he must have seen through the headaches and "tiredness-' with which I had constantly excused my silences and preoccupatfons. But, or course, if he had been different the thing wouldn't have happened. I went around in a daze, my faculties gripped in a sort of paralysis.
 Came the hideous court room! Its noises. My mind stopped com mpIetely.
 After what appeared long ages, MT Baily shook my hand and walked with me down the court house steps, talk ing about something-I didn't know what. Then he excused himself and went back into the court, and I was alone on the street. I started into the downtown subway. Somebody caught my arm. 'fWhere are you going, kidlet?" It was Jarvis voice He had been waiting for me, not hay ing gone to court

My anger died as suddenly as It hao come-and I laughed. helpless in the face of his sublime egotism. I rush. ed down into the subway, leaving him in the street.
 That night cried myself to sleep And l walked with the germ Of thu a idea which was to open Jarvis Den n1son's eyes to himself and give back my happiness.

by the Law Enforcement League.
The League formally called on Mr..
Coles to submit to an impartial inves-

suggests that this organization. to

the interest Of the legal profession
generally.
The League declares that it is "ur

The League states that mot many
people deny that liquor has been al

The leagues statement refers to Mr.
Walnut's address at the City Club a
follows:
''rhe wonderful address made by Mr.
Walnut at the City Club was give

DIvERsIFTCATIoN OF CROPS

Diversified farming, intensification
and rotation of crops and how to
make farming pay in the State OF
Idaho are important parts Of the pro-
gram of the Idaho Farm Bureau Fed
Grafton in the opinion of c. Ben Ross
of Pocatello, it's secretary. He has
gone into an investigation of these
and in a statement issued recently he
tells of the results upon which he has
arrived. His statement follows:
"In travelling over the state | have
found individuals, outstanding farm
ers, in every community, who made
a profit in 1921, Notwithstanding the
financial depression and the low price
the average farm crop brought. !
have also found communities or Sec
tons that are reasonably prosperous,
but in most all cases these farmers
are men that have not pinned their
faith and energy to one or two crops.
However, they had one or more
major crops which were supple
mented with a number of other crops
either animal or plant, and in all
cases these prosperous farmers, the
ones that had the balance on the
right side of the ledger, raised crops
that brought price sufficiently high
to stand the cost of production and
freight charge and leave profit;
such as potatoes, clover and alfalfa
seeds, fruit, sugar beets, vegetables,
dairy and poultry products, live
stock, few sheep and hogs. In fact,
the farmers of Idaho can be prosper
