WHY JOIN THE NAVY

Industrial prosperity is hurting the

dunn issued by the bureau based on
reports of recruiting officers thruout
the country.
Better business over the country. .
says the bureau, "has reduced enlist
ments from 900 to $40 per week and
applications from 1000 to $780,"
Can it be that the patriotic young
men of America join the army and
navy only when jobs are locking else
where? 1t would be just like the ter
rible pacifsts to make propaganda out
of the navy's confession.

NOTES
CORN

CORN
Indications are that there will be a
large acreage of corn planted in the
county. No one will make any mis-
take by planting the amount of corn
his stock can consume. Corn is a
very sure crop, even if it does not
ripen it will produce a lot of feed.
Also grain after corn will produce al
most as large a yield as grain on
summer fallow. Corn has a low
moisture requirement, and therefore
conserves moisture as well as summer
fallow, besides producing a crop of
feed. More corn will help a great deal
to insure good future for Sheridan
County.
POTATOES
Seed selection is very important
with potatoes as well as any other
crop. Potatoes. will "run out" fl seed
selection is ont practiced, but by prac-
ticing selection the potatoes will be
improved. Select the seed of the
proper type Of the variety planted,
cut the stem end to see if the seed IS
infected with wilt or black leg, and
treat with formaldehyde or corrosive
sublimate, preferably corrosive subh-
mate. Hill selection is better than bin
selection for the reason that a hill
with six potatoes is unquestiOnabIy
more prolific than hill having only
two potatoes.
GRASSHOPPERS
This year the county will furnish
arsenic and banana oil for grass
hopper poisoning. A supply will be
on hand in the different towns
throughout the county.

Irish Opera by German.

1t is strange that one Of the most

from German musician, but It is
nevertheless a fact that the typical
Irish opera. 1.-The Lily Of Killarney"
was composed by German, Julius
Benedict. But Benedict. says the
Morning Post, was clever man. and
the Irish idiom In Its broad aspect Is
easy to assume. While speaking with
an Irish accent he said many beautiful
things, and the airs "Elleen Mavour-
neen" and "I'm lone" would give dis
tinction to any opera that dealt In
melody. and sixty years have not

ing room, sleeping of their carousal {:

Someway his voice and manner had
strangely impressed her as different {;
he did not belong with that crew. Out
law, desperado, she knew him to be,
a man with price on his head. yet
surely he was no drunken, registering
brute. He had not even gone into the
house; she was sure of that now, re-
membering clearly. He had led the
horses away, while the other two en-
tered with Meager. Nor had he re-
turned later; not at least while she
was at the window, md he was not
in attendance at the wedding.
Then the truth suddenly occurred
to her-the man was hiding out. He
dare not risk drinking, or being shut
up in a house. He was hunted
creature. watchful Of treachery In
every human being. He could trust
to no one, not even his companions in
dead or alive. He would be out yon-
der In the dark somewhere, alone, he
and his horse. wakening at the slight
est sound. Perhaps he would be the
one she needed to fear the most, when
the pursuit started. These thoughts
flashed swiftly through her mind, al
most unconsciously, as she stole for
ward silently through the shadows.
She passed figure lying In the trail,
too drunk even to reach the bunk
house, but as she creDt past the open
door she saw no signs Of any oc-
cupants within. Except for the few line

thicket of chaparral, the whole per-

liquor. Indifferent to any occurrence

GIFT OF THE DESERT

and II so. his followers would be slow
to discover what had happened, and
would possess no leadership. This,
inevitably would mean delay. While,
even IL the fellow should live. hours
surely must elapse before he could
take the trail. With good horse
under her. she would be beyond sight
out on the desert, riding straight for
those two peaks old Tom Meager had
pointed out to her as marking the No
gales trail. With such start in the
race there was surely chance to
win. Her pulses throbbed exultantly
at this sudden awakening of hope, and.
without so much as another glance
at the body prOstrate on the floor,
she hurried to carry out her plans.

main house from the detached kitchen.
There was lamp burning in the lat

stove, but no occupant. Deborah
knew the place well. and lost no time
in gathering together what food she
required, fortunate enough to discover

had all been turned loose in the large
corral. She had no means of catching
these half-broken animals, but It
might be that the horses ridden by
the party arriving during the evening
had been put up in the stable, ready
for immediate use. These were weary
enough from their desert trip when
