CHAPTER XII
Friends From the East.

Three days after her return IN tho
ranch Madeline could not discover nnv
phs steal discomfort as n reminder OF
hsi adventurous experiences. II 1t had
zot been fer the quiet and perslsteu,
guardianship Of her cowboys she might
almost have forgotten Don Carlos End
tbs raiders. Madeline was assured of
the splendid physical fitness to which
this ranch life had developed her, and
that she was asslmilating something
of the Western disregard OF danger.
~ hard ride. an accident. day in the
sun and dust, an adventure with out
laws-these might once have been
matters OF large import, but now for
Madeline they were in order with all
the rest Of her changed life.
There was never a day thas some.
thing interesting was not brought to
her notice. Sillwell, who had cease
ieSsly reproached himself for riding
away the morning Madeline was cap
tured. grew more like an anxious par
ent than faithful superintendent. He
was never mt ease regarding her unless
he was near the ranch or had left
Stewart there, or else Nels and Nicl,
Steele. Naturally. he trusted more to
Stewart than to any one else.
Miss Majesty, it's sure amazln'
strange about Gene" said the old cat
tleman, as he tramped into Madeline's
office.
whats the matter now?" she In
quired.
"Wal, Gene has rustled Off into the
mountains again. He's sneaked on.
an Nels, who was down 20 the lower
trail, saw him meet somebody that
looked like Padre Marcos. Wal, went
down to the church. and. sure enough,
Padre Marcos is gone. What do you
think Of that, Miss Majesty?"
Maybe Stewart Is getting religious"
laughed Madeline. LET him take his
mysterious trips into the mountains.
Here. Stillwell, have news for you
that may give you reason for worry. l
have letters from home. And my sis.
ter, with party Of friends, is coming
out to visit me. They are society folk.
and one of them is an English lord.
Let mo read you q few extracts from
my mail"
Madeline took up her sisters letter
with n strange sensation Of how ems.
lily sight of crested monogram and
scent Of delicately perfumed paper
could recall the brilliant life she had
given up. She scanned the pages OF
beautiful handwriting. Helen seldom
wrote letters. and she never read any

MelOland Station
Conducts Series
OF Cotton Tests

Cooperating with the United
States Department of Agriculture,
the Imperial Valley Experiment
Station of the University of Cali
fornia is conducting a very complete
variety test with cotton. The seed
for the test was furnished by the
United States Department of Agri-
culture from the finest seed avail
able in the United States. All to-
gether there are 81 varieties of
cotton being tested.
The purpose of the test is to de-
termine which of the above varie-
ties is best adapted to Imperial
Valley conditions as to yield, dis
ease, resistance. length of staple and
so forth. While it is vet too early
to draw any conclusions, there is Il
marked difference in the varieties,
some varieties which have never
been grown here at all showing up
remarkably well.
l.. G. Goar, foreman of the sta
tion, has issued a special invitation
to all persons interested in cotton
to come out to the station in the
near future and examine this in
teresting and instructive expert
ment.

ANOTHER NAVY
DESERTER HERE
TO FACE MUSIC

Owen Clark Eastuan is held hat
the county Jail, awaiting the ar
rival of navy officers to take him
to San Diego where he claims he is
wanted as 4 deserter. Eastman sur.
rendered himself at the sheriff 5
office, and confessed that he had
enlisted in the navy at San Fran
cisco several weeks ago. In com
pany with two other youths, he
was ordered TO the naval training
station at San Diego. On the way,
the youngsters tore up their enlist
ment papers and Went "a. w. O.
l.. as the service calls it.
Eastman finally came to the val
ley looking for work, but was un-
successful. With his money gone,
realization of what he had done
came to him and make it impos-
sible for him to keep his secret.
Eastman was unable to tell the
names of his companions or their
present whereabouts.

Valley All-Stars
Defeat PalaciOs

Playing mid-season baseball, the
Valley All-Stars defeated the Pala
clos of Mexical at the palace
grounds in that city yesterday af
tcrnoon, the score being 6 to 3.
Steele and Livingston pitched good
ball for the Stars and were given
excellent support. Hernandez, who
did the twirling for the Palacios,
also pitched good ball. Brilliant
fielding prevented the Palacios from
further scoring.
With the irst kinks of the season
out OF their playing arms, the val
ley hall-players are getting in shape
for the season and it is hoped that
Il meeting of the Valley Winter
League can be called for this week.
The league will include Calexico, FL
Centre, Brawlev, Calipatria and I'M
perial, with the possibility of Holt
Vile or Mexicali coming in to round
out n sixAclub league. Imperial has
Il number Of good players this year,
and it is believed that baseball will
~ good in that town after an abb
sence Of several seasons.
