Artificial Lights Will
Increase Egg Production

Addition Of extra windows, partio1-
larly neal the floor will allow yoi e
light to enter the houses In the early
evenings Of winter and keep the
chickens from going to roost.
This addition will increase the
length of the day for the chickens and
iave q good result on egg production.
Many p%oultrymen have installed
electrical apparatus In the poultry
houses so that lights can be turned on
In the early morning to get the poul-
try to scratching and feeding earlier.
The lights can also be kept on In the
afternoons with better production re-
suits.
The difference In the number Of
Eggs produced will more than pay the
additional costs Of increased light

Satisfactory Formula
for Damp-ProOf Facing

A very satisfactory damp-proof kali
somine for plaster walls is mad, as
follows: Take 10 pounds of paris
white, or extra gilder's whiting and
dissolve 1t in one gallon of boiling wa
ter; soak half a pound Of white sizing
glue for four hours in half a gallon of
cold water and dissolve In a water
bath dissolve one-quarter pound phos-
phate Of soda in one-eighth of a gallon
of boiling water; mix the first and
last mixtures together and then add the
second. If a thicker stock is required
use a half gallon of water instead Of
a gallon in which to dissolve the paris
white.

Care for Chicken House
Is of Great Importance

The poultry house should be Uttered
at all times with straw eight to twelve
inches deep. This should be renewed
whenever 1t becomes damp, badly
broken up or SO full of Groppings that
grains thrown down are not quickly
lost from sight.
Where a dropping board Is used II
should be cleaned frequently (once q
week Is satisfactory, because disease
germs and mites accumulate here. II
not removed, the feet Of the birds also
become very foul, causing a large per
centage Of dirty eggs.
AS a matter of precaution against
disease the poultry house should be
thoroughly cleaned and then soaked
in every part with a 3 per cent solu.
ton Of a good stock dip at lease once
every year.

Naturalist Tells How They Set Free
Their Fellows When He
Imprisoned Them.

An eminent naturalist, while watch
ing a column Of foraging ants, one
day. placed a small stone on one OF
them to secure it. The next that APP
preached, on discovering the situation
Of it's associate, ran back in an excited
manner and communicated with the
Others when all rushed to the rescue.
Some bit at the stone and tried to
move it, others seized the prisoner by
the legs and tugged with force which
threatened to separate them from its
body; but they persevered until they
got the captive free.
Interested by this evidence of intel
ligence, the naturalist next covered one
of the ants with piece of clay, leav-
ing only the ends Of its antennae pro
iecting.> 1t was soon discovered by it's
fellows. who set to work Immediately
and by biting off pieces of the clay
soon liberated 1t.
ON another occasion very few ants
were passing along at intervals. One
Of these was confined under a piece Of
CLAW little distance from the trail,
with its head projecting. Several ants
went by without seeing 1t, but at last
If was discovered by sharp-eyed
friend that at once undertook to pull

Perhaps he had thought to work
around the tuttress or climb over it.
Evidently he went as far as possible,
and there he chung, an unscaIable
wall above, the abyss beneath.
The approach of the Yaqui was like
a slow dark shadow Of gloom. If it
seemed so to the stricken Gale what
must it have been to Rojas? He APP

Yaqui stole closer and closer. He was

saw him gaze up at the great circling
walls of the crater, then down into the
depths. Perhaps the red haze hang
ing above him, or the purple haze be-
low, or the deep caverns in the lava,
held for Yaqui spirits of the desert,
his gods to whom he called. Perhaps
he invoked shadows of his loved ones
and his race, calling them in this mo-
ment of vengeance.
Gale heard-or imagined he heard
that wild, strange Yaqui cry.
Then the Indian stepped close to
Rojas, and bent low, keeping out Of
reach. How slow were his motions 1!
Would Yaqui never-never end it?
A vail drifted across the crater
to Gales ears.
Rojas fell backward and plunged
sheer. The bank of white choyas
caught him, held him upon their steel
spikes. How long did the dazed Gale

Owls Need of Silence.

A good deal has been written, sayS
Professor Batten in Chambers Jour
nal, about the feathers of the owl,
which enable him to fly with such
muffled flight that he can surprise his
quarry lurking in the grass. 1t has
often occurred to me, however, that
the silence of the owls flight may be
to enable the bird itself to hear, rather
than to prevent others from hearing.
In his hunting, the owl is dependent
upon the minute sounds for guidance,
and anyone who has ever flown will
realize that it would be impossible to
hear anything at all in the air unless
fight we're as noiseless as it is capable
OF being.

CHAPTER XIII
Changes at ForIorn River.


The first of March saw the ederal
occupation of the garrison at Casita.
After a short, decisive engagement
the rebels were dispersed into small
bands and driven eastward along the
boundary line toward Nogales.
II was the destiny of Forlorn River,
however, never to return to the slow,
sleepy tenor of its former existence.
Belongs. predictions came true. That
struggling line of home-seekers was
but a forerunner of the real invasion
Of Altar valley. Refugees from Mex
leo and from Casita spread the word
that water and wood and grass and
land were to be had at Forlorn River !;
and as if by magic the white tents and
red adobe houses sprang up to glisten
in the sun.
Bedding was happier than he had
been for a long time. He believed
that evil days for Forlorn River,
along with the apathy and lack of
enterprise, were In the past. He hired
a couple of trustworthy Mexicans to
ride the boundary line, and he settled
down to think of ranching and irriga-
ton and mining projects. Every morn
ing he expected to receive some word
from Sonoyta or Yuma, telling him
that Yaqui had guided his party safe
ly across the desert.
Among the many changes coming to
pass in Forlorn River were the INSTALL
ing of post Office service and the
building of a mescal drinking house.
Bedding had worked hard for the post
office, but he did not like the idea of
saloon for Forlorn River. Still,
that was an inevitable evil. The Mex
leans would have mescal. 4 good

panion followe
A tide of passion, first hot as fire,
then cold as ice, rushed over Gale
when he saw Rojas take the trail to-
ward Mercedes hiding-place. The
little bandit appeared to have the
sure-footedness of a mountain sheep.
The Mexican following was not so
sure or fast. He turned back. Gale
heard the trenchant bark of the .405.
Laid was kneeling. He shot again
again. The retreating bandit seemed
to run full into an invisible obstacle,
then fell lax, inert, lifeless. Rojas
sped on unmindful OIL the spurts of
dust about him. Yaqui, high above
Laid, was also firing at the bandit.
Then both rifles were emptied. Rojas
turned at a high break in the trail.
He shook a defiant hand, and his ex-
ulting yell pealed family to Gales
ears. About him there was something
desperate, magnificent. Then he clam
bered down the trail.
