word that bound her and her COM

The subject was never mentioned
again. Gale thought that he read a
sinister purpose in Ladd's mind. To
his establishment, Lash came to him
with the same fancy. After that
they made certain there never was a
gun within reach of Ladd's c~lutching,
clawlike hands.
Gradually a somber spell lifted from
the rangers mind. When he was en-

HOUSE FOR NARROWING soWs
Animals Should Be Separated and
Given Ration High In Protein and
Rather Laxative.

A sow which Is soon to farrow
should be separated from the other
hogs Mt least a week before her date.
and during this time she should be
given n ration high In protein, and
rather laxative in nature; In othei
words, n feed very similar to that
which Is given while sucking the pigs,
and as the narrowing time approaches
the ration should be reduced some
what. This will bring the SOW up to
narrowing time In good condition. and
she will not be feverish and restless +:
hence, less danger Of her injurlng or
killing her pigs when she farrows.

method is practiced the animal. accus-
toned to daily handling and control,

manage. Furthermore. he is groomed
Mt least acc daily when in use.
Unfortunately for the horse business,
the common practice In stallion a
agement Is to put the horse in a shed,
out of sight and hearing of other
horses, where he is fed at irregular in
tervals and seldom groomed at all.
Even though a small yard is sometimes
provided. 1t is very often so filthy as
to be more of a damage thar an adj
vantage.
No horse, however sound, can stand
such treatment long without injury. A
good, vigorous stallion needs at least
six miles travel daily or its equivalent
in work.
The amount of feed to be given de-
nends upon the exercise given, the con-
lition Of the horse and his ability to
make use of the feed he gets.
The Kansas experiment station sug-
gests the following as good combina-
lions:

Gale examined II, assured himself the
bones had not been broken, Inc then
rose ready to go down the trail.

On the moment Yaqui appeared to
have completed the binding Of his
wounded shoulder. and he started to
follow Gale. The descent to the ar
royo was swift and easy. Gale hastily
put together the things he needed I;
and, packing them all in a t%arpaulin.
he turned to retrace his steps up the
trail.
Darkness was setting in. The trail
was narrow, exceedingly steep, and in
some places fronted on precipices.
Gales burden was not very heavy. but
its bulk made II ~unwieldy, and It was
always overwhelming him or knocking
against the wall side OF the trail. At
last they reached a level, and were
soon on tho spot with Mercedes and
the injured men.
Gale hen set to work. Yaqui's part
was to keep the fire blazing and the
water hot, Mercedes to help Gale In
what way she could. Gale found Ladd
had many wounds, yet not one OF them
was directly In n vital place. Evil

death. He remained unconscious
through Gales operations.
Jim Lash came gu. OF his stupor. A
m~ushrooming bullet had torn n great
hole In his leg. Gale, upon examina-
ton, could not be sure the bones had
been missed. but there was no bad
break. The application OF hot salt
water mnde Jim groan. When he had
been bandaged and laid beside Ladd,
Gale went on to the cavalryman. A
furrow had beer plowed through his
scalp down TO the tone. When II had
been dressed. Mercedes collapsed
Gale laid her with the three In a row
and covered them with blankets and
the tarpaulin.
Then Yaqui submitted to examina'
ton. A bullet had gone through the
Indians shoulder. To Gale II appeared
serious. Yaqui said II was a flea bite
But he allowed Gale to bnndage II,
and obeyed when he was told to lie
quiet In his blanket beside the fire.
Gale stood guard. The hour had
come for him TO face his great prob,

Ladd then directed his appeal to
Mercedes. His face was now o
Yulsed, and his voice. though 1t had
sunk to a whisper, was clear, end
beautiful with some rich quality THAT
Gale had eve before heard in 1t.

She bent over Thorne and laid her
hands on his hot face. Then she rose
"a woman such as he had imagined
she might be In an hour Of trial.
Gale took up Ladd as carefully and
gently as possible.
Mercedes, bring what you can
carry and follow me-" he said. Then,
m%otionlng for Yaqui to remain there,
he turned down the slope with Ladd
in his arms.
Neither pausing nor making a mis-
step nor conscious of great effort,
Gale carried the wounded man down
into the arroyo. Mercedes kept at
his heels, light, supple, 1.-THE as a
panther. He left her with Ladd and
went back. When he had started off
with Thorne in his arms he felt the
tax on his strength. Surely and
swiftly. however, he bore the cavalry
man down the trail to lay him beside
Ladd. Again he started back, and
when he began to Oun the steep
lava steps he was hot. wet, breathing
hard. AS he reached the scene of
that nights camp a voice greeted him.

always knew you was a husky
chap. But, Dick, you're no boss! Get
me a crutch an give me a lift on one
side"
"Come on" replied Gale. "rve no
time to monkey"
He lifted the ranger, called to Yaqui
to follow with some of the camp out
fit, and once more essayed the steep
descent. Jim Lash was the heaviest
man of the three, and Gales strength
was put to enormous strain to carry
him on that broken trail. Neverthe-
less, he went down, down, walking
swiftly and surely over the bad
places; and at last he staggered into
the arroyo with bursting heart and
red-fSinded eyes. When he had re-
covered he made a final trip up the
slope for the camp effects which va
qui had been unabl, to carry.
In the labor Of watching and nurs.
Ing 1t seemed to Gale that two days
and two nights slipped by like a few
hours. Then Gale succumbed to wea-
riness. After his much-needed rest he
relieved Mercedes Of the care and
watch owe Thorne which. up to that
time. she had absolutely refused to
relinqulsh. The cavalryman required
constant attention. His condition
slowly grew worse, and there came a
day which Gale thought surely was
the end. But that day passed. and
the night, and the next day, and
Thorne lived on. CHASTITY, stricken,
raving. Suddenly, and to Gales
amaze and thanksgiving, there came
an abatement Of Thorne's fever. With
1t some heat and redness Of the In
famed wound disappeared. Next
morning he was conscious. and Gale

grasped some Of the hope that Mer-
cedes had never abandoned. He
forced her to rest while he attended
to Thorne. That day he saw that the
crisis was past. Recovery for Thorne
was now possible, and would perhaps
depend entirely upon the care he re-
cclved.
Jim Lnsh's wound healed without
any a~ggravating symptoms. II would
be only a matter OF time until he had
the use OF his leg again. All these
days, however, there was little ap-
parent change In Ladd's condition. I'M

AGED CHIEF PASSES AWAY

Tay cum geshig, aged 96 years,
one of the few remaining chiefs Of
the Minnesota Chippewa bands,
died at his home at White Earth
lake northeast of this village at an
early hour Sunday morning.
The aged chief had been confined
to his bed for the past i've years
or more due to infrmities of old
age which, coupled with the .scant
care offered him by Indian depart
ment officials probably fastened
the end
1t was Tay cum geshig who
was recently quoted in the Twin
City press in reviewing the many
wong done the Chippewas by the
Federal government to press rep
resentatives on the occasion OF
their resent visit to the White
Earth reservation.
The funeral was held Tuesday
from St. Columba's Episcopal
church and interment made in the
church cemetery.

Plenty Of Food at
Wah peton Indian School.

In a recent issue we published a
story to the effect that there was a
shortage of food at the Wahpeton,
N. D., Indian school, and that
there was much complaint heard
in regard to it. These complaints
reached US from parents who have,
or had, children at the school, and
consequently were taken by US TO
be the truth. A recent communi-
cation received by US from Mr..
Jesse w. Smith, superintendent
Of the Wahpeton school, however,
takes exceptions to the statements
contained in our article and in
forms US that any such statements
from any source whatever we're
untrue and no doubt made with
maliscious intent, as the food at
school was good and wholesome
and that there was an abundance of
it, that in fact the management
nave always gone to extra trouble
to see that the bill of fare was
acceptable to all.
In the light OF past experience,
we are aware that when Indian
children become tired of school,
no matter where situated, they are
very apt in finding excuses for
their parents sending for them to
come home, the complaint of poor
food is a common one and was
probably used for this purpose by
certain pupils at the Wahpeton
school, as all circumstances indi-
cate that there is plenty of whole
some food for all at the school aid
that the complaints reaching US
were unjustified.

Baby Clinic at White
Earth Saturday. Dec |st.

People of White Earth reserva.
ton are hereby informed that an
important welfare clinic for the
purpose Of examining babies two
years old and under will be held at
the White Earth School Assembly
Hall, on Saturday, December LIST,
at 9 o'clock a. m.
A baby specialist from the State
Board of Health will be present to
weigh and examine each child
thoroughly, also to give advice as
to care and proper feeding. 1t is
very important that babies under
two years of age be under the
observation of a physician, so it is
urged that all mothers be on hand
with their babies on the above
date.
1t is a well known fact that an
unnecessary number of babies un-
der one year of age die each year.
Let US do what we can to lessen
this death rate.
The clinic is free to all.
