window a moment later Tex had
escaped.
Outside the glory Of the night
stretched in vast panorama before
him. Here it was just as it had al
ways been; it was only inside that
values were different and standards
seemed changed, and as this thought
occurred to him Tex thought of Lyra.
What had she to do with stars and
open spaces and the fresh cool fin
gers of the wind? And yet-and yet
there was u fever in his veins He
couldn't account for it. Was he 60
ing mad? Had one dance with a girl
he had never seen before tonight be-
witched him, made him forget where
he was and why he was here?
She was Lyra Graham, Harring-
ton Graham's daughter. In three
weeks she was to be married to Peter
GrisWOld, and he, Tex Hunter, was
merely a guest invited to the we'd
ding. Then why did he remember
the incredible slimness of her in his
arms. the starry 2rayness Of her
eyes. the red mouth trembling a lit
tie, like a child's? Why should he
think of her at all, when he knew
how she felt toward him? Why, her
scorn of him was only too obvious;
she looked upon him as a nuisance,
a friend Of her father, whom she
had to tolerate. The memory Of her
manner toward him touched him on
the raw. Her cy insolence made
him feel as if he had been beaten
with small, singing flicks Of lash.
And yet his pulses were 1ammering,
and an emotion he had never expert
enced before was surging up in his
heart.

Plans for Poultry Houses Suited to

Plans for Poultry Houses Suited to
Georgia
G. r. G., Albany, Ga, writes:
/ want to build a cow barn and
milking shed also a chicken
house, and if you have any plans
for any of these, / would be
glad to have them. I would also
like information in regard to the
best thing to SOW for a COW pas
ture and for chicken runs.
The Georgia State College of Agri-
culture will furnish bona fide citizens
of the state with blueprints of the
character you desire to obtain. A
large number Of standard blueprints
of farm structures have been made
up in the division of agricultural en-
cheering and are sent out as re-
Quested to meet the needs and con-
venience of bona fide farmers. Speci-
fications and bills of materials ac-
company these blue prints, thereby
enabling the owner of the farm, with
the aid of a good carpenter, or the
workman on his plantation, to build
such structures as he may need
to erect.
planted at this season of the year
to use as pasture for cows or
chickens. In your Section of the
state, you may plant oats. wheat, or
rye alone. In that event, use about
a bushel of grain per acre. Drill
the seed into the ground as soon
as possible. Oats will make the
finest pasture, but rye is the hard
lest of these crops. You may COM
bine all of the above crops with a
winters growing legume For this
purpose you can use Vetch. In that
event We would seed three pecks
of any of the cereals along with
twenty pounds of harry vetch seed.
You may also use Crimson clover
with a cereal and Vetch. In that
event, we would plant over three
peckS of the cereal with fifteen
pounds Of Vetch and ten pounds of
Crimson clover. You may of course
seed Crimson clover with one of the
cereals mentioned. In that event
we would use twenty pounds of
Crimson clover seed If you SOW
Crimson clover alone, which YOU NAV
do, then use as much as twenty to
twenty-five pounds of seed per acre.
Netch will not need incubation but
Crimson clover will. Crimson clover
should be scattered over the surface
of we'll prepared seeded. Cover
the seed into the soil with a Weeder
or harrow.

Crops of the characte mentioned
will furnish a lot of pasture for cows
during the late fall, winter and early
spring. You may SOW any of the
cereals mentioned in your chicken
runs. We prefer oats, however, for
this purpose. They should be sown
immediately and the runs so ar
ranged as to let the chickens Craze
on different. areas for a few days
at a time, thereby preventing the de-
struction of the crop and also keep
ing the chickens well supplied with
green food throughout the winter.
We have found kale, collards, and
even turnip green's excellent for the
purpose of supplying green feed for
chickens during the fall, winter. and
spring months. These crops can of
course be planted in succession. We
are certain that the use of these
crops in your chicken runs Will very
materially increase egg production.

Lyra Graham is to be married
to Peter GrisWoId in three weeks.
Thomas Hunter, better known as
Tex, a friend of Mr.. Graham's,
is invited to come on for the fes-
tivities preceding the wedding.
He feels out of place, and thinks
Lyra and her friends extremely
artificial, but there is something
about Lyra that in spite of him
self, stimulates his lima gination
CHAPTER Y
The Heart of a Man
7 inside, Cynthia was Waiting
with Tex. She was being as al,
Turing as possible, and Cynthia
had many little tricks that were
usually effective. She had big, slum-
berous eyes, and she had a way of
keeping them half-closed and then
suddenly opening them wide. She
tried this on Tex, but he hardly
seemed to notice, nor did he seem
TO be intrigued by Cynthia's slightly
husky voice and the pretty speeches
she was making to him.
To tell the truth, Tex was dancing
where. He was wondering what
Lyra and Peter were doing out in
the soft-scented darkness. He was
visualizing Lyra n Peters arms, and,
for some reason, the thought was
agonizing to him. 1t bewildered him,
made it difficult for him to think
clearly.
What he wanted was to get off by

to get a grip on himself, to decide
what had happened, for that some
thing had happened was quite evil
dent.
Again he wished that he had never
come here. These people were not
his kind; they did not speak his
language; their lives were too com
plicated, too filled with little things
that to Tex seemed unimportant. In
TeX's world life was simple Such
things as open campfires, starlight
and the feel of d horse between the
hard grip of ones knees were what
counted And as for love-Iove, too
should be simple, primitive, a clear
call Of mate to mate. Not this play

he did not answer she went on. teas-
ingly: L believe Lyra has bewitched
you. l shouldn't have allowed you TO

And then. as dark red flush crept
up into his face, she laughed lightly
and danced away from him. A mo-

under the circumstances, he has
done you a kindness for which you
can never be sufficiently grateful.
A broken enga cement may hurt
your pride a little, but it won't break
your heart as a broken marriage
would, and it isn't such tragedy
for a sweetheart to quit as it is for
a husband to quit.
The two things that wreck more
marriages for women than anything
else are poverty and unfaithfulnesS.
These are the result of men marry
ing before they are able to support
a family and before they are ready
to settle down. And these dangers
this young man has recognized in
time and saved you from.
When you are young, and mex
perienced, and very much in love.
you think that the money question
is not to be considered 1t is true
that 1t is not necessary to have
wealth to marry on, or even enough
to live in luxury, but marriage IS
bound to be a failure where there
is not sufficient income upon which
to live in decent comfort. People
who have been used to good food,
and good clothes, and a good house
are utterly Wretched if they have
20 go shabby and half starved, and
if they are harasSed by debts and
filled with anxiety about where they
shall get their daily bread. There
fore, the man is wise who does not
undertake matrimony until he can
afford the price.
And a man is not only wise; he is
only playing fair with a girl if he
does not marry until he is tired of
running around with other women
and wants to settle down. No hus-
band brings such sorrow to his wife
as does the man who sOWs his wild
oat crop after he is married. AS long
as a cabaret looks better to a man
than home; as long as every flutter-
ing skirt is q signal for him TO get
up and follow; as long rs he prefers
the company of the boys to a wife s:
as long as he would rather spend
his money with the bOOtlegger than
with the milkman; as long as he is
more thrilled over a new make of
automobile than he is over a new
DaDy carriage, lhaL long SuouIu ne
stay single He has no right to
marry and make a woman miserable
with his sidestepping.
SO thank God, Brown Eyes. for
your miraculous escape from being
a deserted wife and set your affec-
lions on some more domestic mind
ed man who is ready to marry.

Amazing as it may seem poultry rails
