impression to herself. When she had
opened the door and come in, he had
looked up in dread, as though prepar-
ing himself for whatever she might
announce. Now that the door shut
them in alone, he approached her with
arms offered. She stepped back, in
stinctively avoiding his embrace; and
he stopped at once, but he had come
quite close to her now.
AS she stared at him, the clerks
voice came to her suddenly over the
partition which separated the office
from the larger room where the clerk
was receiving some message over the

tened; as the voice stopped, his great,
tinely-shaped head sank between his
shoulders; he fumbled in his pocket
for cigar, and his big hands shook
as he lighted it, without word of eX-
cuse to her. A strange feeling came to
her that he felt what he dreaded APP
preaching and was no longer conscious
of her presence.
She heard footsteps in the larger
room coming toward the office door.
Henry was in suspense A rap came
at the door. He whitened, and wet his
lips.
Come in" he summoned.
One of the office girls entered, bring
ing a white page of paper with three
or four lines Of purple typewriting up
on it which Constance recognized must
be a transcript of a message just re-
ceived.
She started forward at sight of it,
forgetting everything else; but he took
the paper as though he did not know
she was there. He merely held it I'M
til the girl had gone out; even then
he stood folding and unfolding it, and
his eyes did not drop to the sheet.
The girl had said nothing at all but,
having seen her, Constance was
athrill; the girl had not been a bearer
of bad news, that was sure; she
brought some sort of good news! Con-
stance, certain Of it, moved nearer to
Henry to read what he held. He looked
down and read.
"What is it, Henry?"
His muscular reaction, as he read,
had drawn the sheet away from her;
he recovered himself almost instantly
and gave the paper to her.
'S :35 a. M, Manitowoc, Wis.," she
read. "The schooner Anna S. Solwerk
has been sighted making for this port

her own, can be plainly made out. 1t

1.-TWO lifeboats" Constance cried.
"That could mean that they all are
saved or nearly all; doesn't it, Hen

He had read some other significance
in it, she thought, or, from his greater
understanding of conditions in the
storm, he had been able to hold no
hope from what had been reported.

TEAM NO. lLEAD-
ING in VOLLEY
BALL CONTEST

The race in the Julesburg Com
munity Club Volley Ball Tournament
now in progress is getting tighter,
and there is much speculation as to
who the winners will be. There are
three more series to be played. and
each team has six more games to play
before the tournament is finished.
The seventh series of the tourna :
ment was played at the Sedgwick
County High School gymnasium last
Monday evening, with the following
results:
Team No. One defeated No. Five
Team No. Six defeated No. Four.
Team No. Five defeated No. Three.
Team No. Two defeated No. Four.
Team No. One defeated No. Three and
Team No. Two defeated No. Six.
Teams No. Three and Four had a
bad night and lost both games play
ed, while Teams No. One and Two
were In good form and won both
games played. Teams No. Five and
Six were inconsistent and each won
and lost game. AS the result of the
series last Monday evening, the
standing of the teams has been chang
ed considerable, and it is hard to pre-
dict what the final outcome will be.
The eighth series of the Tournament
will be played next Monday evening,
March 18th, the first game commenc-
ing at 7:30 o'clock.
Following is the standing of the
teams:

NIGHT POLICEMAN
ISELIMINATED BY
CITY COUNCIL

At a meeting of the city council
held Tuesday evening an action was
taken by the council which means that
the Marshall will perform the duties
of day and night policeman IN the fu
ture, thus eliminating the extra night
policeman's position, which has been
held by G. W. Dunkle during the past
several months. 1t is planned that
Marshal Cunningham go on duty in
the afternoon and remain on the job
until the early morning hours, 1t
would seem that now the Marshall
will be the busiest man in Julesburg,
in the performance of his duties of
day and night policeman in an effort
to preserve the peace and quietude of
our community. This new plan of
economizing upon the part of the
council perhaps may prove practlcal
and for the best, but will have to be
tried out and proven before num-
ber of our citizens will be convinced.

of the sport at the various games, and
the interest is growing as the contest
progresses. There is much specula-
tion as to who the winners will be,
but the dope is continually being up
set. There may be dark horse or

warrant additional payments under
the contract"
Declaring that "the utmost coopera-
tion is necessary to enable the indus

DON'T PULL FODDER

Clemson College, Aug. 2.-The old
practice of pulling fodder is not fol-
lowed by the best farmers any more.
They have come to realize that fod-
der is the most expensive form Of
forage which they can raise on the
farm and have begun to raise cow
peas. soybeans, sorghum and other
things for forage and to leave their
corn alone until mature. They have
stopped this practice because they
have found it to be, rot only hot.
ii''y piecL of work, but also that it
reduces the yield of corn go e: eatly
that they can not afford to 90 it.
Several different experiment sta
tions have carefully tested the mat
ter and have found that pulling the
fodder reduces the yield of ear corn
by 10 to II per cent. says Prof. C.
p. Blackwell, agronomist. This loss
amounts to 3 bushels per acre on the
average. Frequently the loss to ear
corn is worth as ihuch as the fodder
saved and the farmer has had his
work for nothing.
The leaf is the factory of the corn
plant where the raw materials which
are taken from the soil and the ear
are united by the energy of the sun
20 form starch, oil, protein, and fats,
for the growth of the entire plant
and especially for storage in the ear.
AS the leaf dries out, these foods
are transferred, in large measure.
fom the leaf to the ear If the leaf
is pulled before it is thoroughly dry,
this transfer can not take place and
the result is loss to the ear. 1t is
because of this loss that the more
progressive farmers no longer de-
pend on fodder as a roughage for live
itock, but use instead cowpeas, soy
Beans, velvet beans, sorghums or some
other source. Most of these are not
only much cheaper forage but also
better.
Let us hope that it will not be
long until fodder pulling" will be a
relic of the past.
