with draws between Soon night
shadowed the deeper gullies. Madeline
was refreshed by the cooling Of the air.
Stewart Travelled slowly now. The
barks Of coyotes seemed to startle him.
Often he stopped to listen. And during
one Of those intervals the silence was
broken by sharp rifle shots. Madeline
could not tell whether they were near
or far, to right or left, behind or be-
fore. Evidently Stewart was both
alarmed and bafflei. He dismounted.
He went cautiously forward to listen.
Madeline fancied she heard a cry, low
and far away. 1t was only that Of
coyote, she convinced herself, yet it
was so wailing, SO human, that she
shuddered. Stewart came back. He
slipped the bride Of both horses, ana
he led them. Every few PAGES he
stopped to listen. He changed his di-
rectiOn several times, and the last time
he got among rough, rocky ridges. The
iron shoes Of the horses cracked on the
rocks. That sound must have pene-
trated far into the forest. 1t perturbed
Stewart, for he searched for softer
ground Meanwhile the shadows
merged into darkness. The stars shone.
The wind rose. Madeline believed
hours passed
Stewart halted again. In the gloom
Madeline discerned a log cabin, and
beyond it spear-pointed dark trees
piercing the sky line. She could just
make out Stewards tall form as he
leaned against his horse. Either he
was listening or debating what to do
perhaps both. Presently he went in
side the cabin. Madeline heard the
scratching of a match; then she saw
faint light. The cabin appeared to be
deserted. Probably it was one Of the
many habitations belonging to pros
pectors and foresters who lived In the
mountains Stewart came out again.
For long moment he stood as still as
a statue and listened. Then she heard
him mutter, "If we have to start quick
can ride bareback" Witk that he
took the saddle and blanket off his
horse and carried them into the cabin.
"Get off," he said, in low voice, as
he stepped out Of the door.

saw tracks in the open patches Of
ground. Here Stewards horse took to
a brisk walk.
At last Madeline was brought to
dead halt by Stewart and his horse
blocking the trail. Looking up, she

ing her gaze, Madeline saw pack
horses cross an open space mile be-
low, and she thought she saw the stag
hounds. Stewards dark eyes searched
the slopes high up along the craggy
escarpments. Then he put the black
to the descent.
He led off to the right, zigzagging
an intricate course through the rough
est ground Madeline had ever ridden
over. He crashed through cedars,
threaded tortuous way among
boulders, made his horse slide down

slow and cautious progress across

dust and heat, parching throat, that
caused her to think Of time; and she
was amazed to see the sun sloping to
the west. Stewart never stopped; he
never looked back; he never spoke.
"After a mile or 80 of easy travel

sternly bound her to silence, tarried a
moment to comfort Christine, his wife,
acting as maid to the ladies, and re-
turned to where Madeline lay con-
cealed. He had been there scarcely q
moment when he whispered:

below. She could peep over a kind Of
parapet, through an opening In the
tips Of the pines that reached up to
the cliff, and obtain commanding view
Of the camp circle and It's immediate
surroundings. She could not, however,
see far either to right or left of the
camp, owing to the obstructing foliage
Presently the sound Of horses hoofs
quickened the beat Of her pulse and
caused her to turn keener gaze upon
the cowboys below.
Although she had some inkling Of
the course Stewart and his men were
to pursue, she was not by any means
prepared for the Indifference she saw.

Three cowboys were lazily and uncon-
cernedly attending to campfire duties,
such as baking biscuits, watching the
ovens, and washing tins and pots. The

pack. Stewart was rolling Gig
arctic. Monty had apparently nothing
to do for the present except whistle,
which he was doing much more loudly
than melodiously. The whole ensem-
BILE gave an impression of careless in
difference.
The sound Of horses hoofs grew
louder and slowed its beat. One Of the
cowboys pointed down the trail, toward
which several of his comrades turned
their head for moment, then went
on with their occupations.
Presently a shaggy, dusty horse
bearing lean, ragged, dark rider rode
into the camp and halted. Another

Mexican riders came In single file and

"Buenos dias. senor," tremendously
said the foremost guerrilla.
BY straining her ears Madeline
heard that voice, and she recognized
1t as belonging to Don Carlos. Stewart
answered the greeting in Spanish, and,
waving his hand toward the campfire,
added in English, "Get down and eat"
The guerrillas were anything but
slow in complying. They crowded to
the fire, then spread in little circle
and squatted upon the ground, laying
their weapons beside them. The cow
boys were not cordial in their recep-
tion Of this visit, but they were hos
pitable. The law Of the desert had
always been to give food and drink to
wayfaring men, whether lost or hunted
or hunting.

PAPYRUS BOOKS WERE ROLLS
Modern Term "VoIume" Has Been
Found to Have Had Its Origin in
These Cylindrical Works.

In forming papyrus into books It
was customary among the ancients to
use long sheet or web of it, and roll
1t upon stick, as is the custom in re-
spect to maps at the present day, says
the Detroit News. The writing was in
columns, each of which formed sort
of page, the reader holding the ends of
the roll in his two hands and reading at
the part which was open between
them. AS he advanced he continually
unrolled on one side and rolled up on
the other.
The term volume" used in respect
to modern books, had it's origin in this
ancient practice of writing upon long
rolls. The long sheet was rolled upon
a wooden billet, which gave the volume
a certain firmness and solidity, and af-
forded it great protection.
The ends of the roller projected be-
yond the edges of the sheet and We're
terminated in knobs or bosses, which
guarded in some measure the edges of
the papyrus or rolls of parchment.
which were often made in the same
manner. The whole volume was also
inclosed in a parchment case. on the
outside Of which the title of the work
was conspicuously recorded.

Nicotine Sulphate Will
Check Apple Leafhoppers

The apple leafhopper, destructive
insect that occurs in nearly every state
of the Union, may be materially
checked by single spraying with 40
per cent nicotine sulphate in the pro-
portion of one to 1900, combined with
soap. The solution should be applied
against first brood nymphs. The same
treatment made three or four weeks
earlier is effective against the rose
leafhopper. though this species is sell
dom injurious enough to justify spe-
cial application.
The apple leafhopper causes serious
injury to apple nursery stock by ex-
tracing the plant juices from the ter
minal leaves. AS a consequence the
leaves gradually become understood
and fail to function normally. thereby
retarding the growth of the trees. The
rose leafhopper. feeds on the lower
leaves and produces white or yellow
spots on them.

horticultural
Points
Central Western States
Hurt by San Jose Scale

I1uIC NY Dali JOSG OCdlS
prepared by the United States Department
Of Agriculture.)
San Jose scale has become so de-
structive during the last few years
throughout the southern limits Of the
apple belt in the Central Western
states that it threatens the destruc-
ton of the apple industry. Realizing
that the scale must be controlled or
many growers would be driven out of
the orchard business, the United
States Department of Agriculture be-
gan as soon as practicable series of
experiments for controlling the pest.
Climatic effects, with more or less
carelessness in spraying methods on
the part of many growers, is RESPONSE
BILE for an increase in the spread of
scale. When the scale began to in
crease because of unfavorable weather
spraying also was difficult and conse
quently not as efficiently done as NEG
essary. Failure to spray during the
dormant season with liquid lime-sul-
phur had much to do with poor re-
suits.
Because of the urgents need for re-
lief based ON preliminary results of
the experimental work recommends
lions were made by the department
for the control of the scale and so
far have proved satisfactory. Depart
ment Circular 263 discusses the meth
DDS of spraying found to be effective.
OF all the insecticides used in the ex-
detrimental tests best results were OBJ
tanned with the so-called parafiin-oil or
lubricating-oil emulsion. Thorough
spraying with an emulsion containing
per cent of oil should clean up bad
infestation of scale. Although the
time to spray is in the dormant season,
when it is advisable to make two ap-
plications, summer sprays of oil emul-
sion will give partial checking OF
the scale. When this insecticide is
used during the growing season, pre-
caution should be taken to make the
application during the ccol part of the
day. Injury to fruit and especially to
foliage is likely to result from its use
during extremely high temperatures.
Methods for preparing the oil-emul-
sion sprays and for their application
as well as the results of the expert
mental work at various stations and
sections of the infested-orchard terri
tory are given in this preliminary re-
port.

Three Diseases Cause
of Raspberry Failures

Raspberry growers will be interest
ed In a recent publication issued by
the New York agricultural experiment
station at Geneva on the causes of the
running out of raspberries. Raspber-
~ culture in New York particularly in
the Hudson River valley has frequent
" suffered severe setbacks. The
causes of these failures have not been
fully understood until recently. when
one of the station plant disease spe-
cialists was assigned to the problem.
According to this authority, the trou-
BILE is due to any one of three diseases
which are carried over into new plant
ings through the use of diseased plant
ing stock. These diseases are known
as mosaic or yellows, leaf curl. and
rosette. Every part of the diseased
plant is affected. even the roots and
suckers. The diseases greatly reduce
the yield and the quality of the fruit.
1t is believed that the only satisfac-
tory way in which to control all three
of these diseases is to plant selected
disease-free stock Steps are being
taken to provide for the inspection of
raspberry planting stock during the
coming summer in an effort to secure
an adequate supply of disease-free
stock for replacing diseased paintings.
The New York State Fruit Testing
Cooperative association, Inc, Geneva,
N. Y, is planning to offer an inspec-
ton service to ts>members and to issue
certificates testifying as to the quality
of the stock examined by their inspec-
tor. In this way the purchaser will
be able to buy stock relatively free
from the running-out diseases.

OF penalty Is likely to make some

sideration. 1t used to be that federal
law violation was generally feared by
everybody, but recently the violation
of the voistead act has been consider
