DEMONSTRATIONS OF
WHEAT in KENT TODAY
County Agent Wilson Will Show
How To Protect Seed At How
ard HudsOn's Farm.

The keen interest shown by the
farmers of Kent county who attend
ed the wheat smut control demon
strations and field meetings held on
the farms of Joseph Kohout neal
Hartly and E. H. Donovan near
Brenford last Friday was such as to
warrant further action to be taken
by County Agent Russell E. Wilson
in the campaign this fall to control
this disease.
Over forty wheat growers were
present at these two demonstrations
and practically everyone of these
farmers agreed to treat his seed
wheat before sowing it this fall. In
addition to this excellent response
and the desire upon the part of
these growers to SOW clean seed
wheat this year, numerous requests
have been made at the county
agents office during the past few
weeks from farmers throughout the
entire county for information con-
cerning the most practical and econ
omical means of effectively eradi-
eating the wheat smut.
In view OF the severe prevalence |
Of this disease in 1925 wheat crop

shown by the majority of the wheat |

CHAPTER XVIII
Lee Is Given a Powerful
Tool

It was dawn in the gorge when Lee
opened his eyes. At first his memo
ries were confused so that he could
carry them no further forward than
the moment when he turned away
from the log house, leaving Joyce
with Railway.
He had meant to kill him then-and
here he must have fallen asleep in
the forest, for 1t was daylight. And
Joyce had been all night In Rath-
ways power!
Murder filed his heart; and again
everything else was blotted out Of his
mind but the insensate desire TO slay,
a primal instinct that swamped every
other part Of the mans being.
He started up. But-this was not
the forest He was amazed to see
the walls of the gorge on either side
of him, dwindling away in the dis
stance into open country, with vista
of trees beyond, and splashes Of sun
shine, interspersed with long waves
of shadow, showing that the sun had
already risen.
Almost Immediately beneath the
ledge on which he lay was a cataract,
but not deep-a roaring stream OF
water rushing among the rocks.
And not far away was old Leboeuf,
placidly frying bacon in a skillet over
a wood fire.

4 few hours delay, untn the men

4 few hours delay until the men
were stupefied with whisky, then
One minutes start was all he
needed. Then he was safe He could
make Lake Misquash in three days.
There, in the far north, at the last
the half-breed whom he supplied per
iodically with hoOch for sale, he
would remain with Joyce, safe against
pursuit through the long winter. In
any event 1t was not likely that the
gang would have the enterprise to
follow him.
In spring Joyce and he would move
south by other trails. By spring the
girl would have forgotten Anderson.
1t was beginning to snow again.
Clouds would cover the moon that
night. Things could not have turned
out more favorably. Best Of all was
Estelle's absence.
But then, through the fading twi-
light, Railway saw Estelle coming
toward him along the path through
the reeds.
And a fury Of resentment rose in
his breast at the sight Of her. He had
never hated her more. Why had he
tolerated this woman SO long after she
had ceased to mean anything to him?
There was murder in his heart as
he advanced to meet her.

WNIT aarvioA

afternoon, abusing his men, ana CIV
ing them unheard of tasks. He had
the boats cleaned, the engine over
hauled, a drum of gasoline placed in
the motor boat He sent some food
to Joyce. The men grumbled and
went about their work sullenly.
Railway fancied he saw looks pass
ing between them, as if they had
some secret understanding. He be-
lleved they we're conspiring against
him. And where the devil was Es-
teller
In spite Of the hate that he now felt
for her, he turned to her in his
thoughts in time of difficulty. Curse
the woman! She was getting too
strong a hold on him He must send
her packing.
Els desire for Joyce was constant
goad to him. But he was still afraid
of her. He must give her time to
weaken. 1t was not dark enough.
And he had not drunk enough.
At nightfall the men began a ca
rousal, gathering in hollow between
the huts, protected by skin roof and
sides, but open in front, where a huge
fire was kindled. Usually Railway
kept liquor from them, except when on
long Journeys and for the weekly de-
bauch which he permitted, but now
they were openly defying his rigid
rule. The possession Of the gold had
disintegrated everything.
For Railway, too. He cared no
longer. The drunker his followers
became, the better for the plans that
were condensing In his mind.
AS he passed, one Of the men de-
family held up a bottle, an act that
would have brought swift physical re-
tribution under other circumstances.
A man at his side dashed it out of his
hand, whispering in his ear. The bottle
smashed, and the spirit ran out on
rne ground. narnway aHecre1 NOT To-
notice the incident.
Another man, staggering out of q
hut, lurched past him with a mum
bled gibe Pathway affected not to
notice that either. Let the fools weave
their halter!
He went into his own hut and swal-
lowed cupful Of whisky. 1t helped
to steady his nerves. He crossed the
neck and made his way to the hut
where Joyce was. 1t was nearly dark
now, and through the darkness he
could see her sitting where he had
left her, her hands folded in her lap.
Fear of her sprang up in him again,
and with the fear unreasoning fury.
Hate and love left him neutral for the
moment, so strongly they contested
within him.
The girl did not turn her head, and
he Steered a wide course of the bed,
edging sidewise toward the sack of
gold dust. Picking it up. he made his
way quickly outside. With a great
effort he managed to hoist it upon
his back, and, staggering along, al
most bent double by his burden he
made mis- way among the reeds until
he reached the shore Of the lake, a
few yards from where the motor boat
lay beached at the end of the broken
parapet.
He laid the bag down in the swamp
growth. He felt more at ease now.

down stairs to reach It. Opposite is a
convenient lavatory, which also saves
much stair climbing
On the second floor are three good
sized bedrooms and a bathroom, all
grouped about the hall at the head Of
the stairs. The most conspicuous fea-
ture of the second floor is the generous
provision of closet space. Each bed
room is supplied with two closets and
these are of unusual size In addition
there is closet just off of the bath
room and another in the hall at the
head of the stairs Here are eight
closets in addition to the one provided
for the first-foor bedroom, truly fea-
ture which should appeal to every
woman.

CLEAR DEBT

Dawes Plan Settles Payments
From Germany-France
Has No Further Excuse
BY GEORGE r.. HOLMES,
international News Service.

With complete accord reached at
Paris concerning the ALLEGATION Of
Germany's payments under the
Dawes plan, and the international
atmosphere consequently more clari-
fled than 1t has been at any time
since the armistice, administration
officials are now prepared to press
for an early settlement or the
81 900 .O00, 900 worth OF war debts
that still remain unfunded on Amer
ica's books.
An early renewal Of negotiations
to this can be expected, 1t was
stated in official circles here today,
with the United States exerttns
pressure on France for some serious
talk about how she is to discharge
her debt Of $4,000, 0O0, 900.
No Excuses Now Exist.
Settlement Of the reparahons
problem, in the opinion Of Admins
tration officials, removes the last
remaining barrier to debt settlement
negotiations with all European
debtors. Heretofore, France and
the smaller debtors have offered the
argument that they could not talk
settlement with Washington until
they could ascertain just how much
they were to get from Germany
The Dawes plan agreement settles
that. and now the excuse becomes
no longer tenable.
The French government has al
ready been informed that the "un'
official and personal" memorandum
on the subject of the debt, sent ia
Washington some days ago by M

istence.

ing the fact that the Bureau or
Home Economies for this current
fiscal year had an appropriation OF
only $107,024, recommended on It's
behalf an appropriation for the next
fiscal year of 1922 ,O24.
Congress, following the Bureau Of
the Budget but trailing behind IT..
appropriated $117,244.
Increases and Decreases.
This new Bureau, therefore. which
In the fiscal year 1924 had 81 ,76O,
will in the fiscal year 1925 have an
appropriation Of $117, 244-an in
crease of sixty-three per cent.
It is in itself in total dollars a
small matter, but 1T is an exact in
dication of a virtually universal
tendency in the Federal government.
While certain old conventional
standard services-like pensions and
like interest on the public debt
are getting gradually reduced, GER
tain numerous new humanitarian
and social services are getting stead
lily increased; and the net outcome,
as will now be shown, threatens to
produce a net total future advance

year 1925-the current year-its ap-
preparation is $107,024.
Still, however, It naturally needs
a new division.
It does its work admirably, and
It naturally sees new and newer
directions in which it's work needs
to be extended.
Get Women Together.
It held q conference In Washing
ton not long ago Of women repre-
sentatives Of numerous great stand
ard organizations Of women.
These entatives-women of
the highest possible standing and Of
the greatest possible influence
were dissatisfied with the present
scope of the activities Of the Blu
reau of Home Economics, Of the
Department of Agriculture.
The felt as follows:
''The most fundamental problems
facing the thinking home woman
today involve decisions OF what to
do"
They felt that the Federal Gov
eminent ought to do more to help
the home woman to think and to
decide what to do. They felt fur
Their:
'Many agencies are telling the
thinking home women how TO do
the various household tasks. but it
Is equally important to give her
motives for doing them and to at
tach to the various duties such
cIear-cut standards Of value I'm re-
IatiOn to all the aspects and con-
tributiOns Of home life that she
viii be helped i'm knowing what to
do and what may be left undOne."
Relationships Next.
In order then to show the think
ing American home woman what
may be left undone, as well as
what to do. it was felt that in the
Bureau Of Home Economies there
should be another and a fifth
Jlivision-the division of home re-
lationships.
In such a division there would
be "a careful weighing Of the
values needed by the housewife in
the organizing of her working tIIne,
in the apportioning of the material
resources of her family, and in
all the choices she constantly
makes bearing on the material and
social well-being of her family"
It is possible now that this new
division, promoted by the delibera-
tons and demands OF representa-
tives Of organizations of American

HELD FAST
BY SANDS
ON. BAR
Relief Vessels, Including U. S.
Cutters, Fall to Bulge
Submarine

NAUsET BEACH, Cape Cod,
Mass, Jan. 15.-The big wrecking
tug Resolute, aided by the navy
tug Wendank and the Revenue Cut
tiers Tampa and Acushnet, laboring
beneath the glare Of searchlights,
again failed early today to take the
United States submarine S-1S OFF
the sandy bar, a quarter OF q mile
off here on which she 10 stranded.
Despite the coolest high wind
spectators lined the shore through
out the night.
The sea never furnished a more
dramatic spectacle. While the
Resolute tugged at the end Of q
big steel hawser the rays from the
searchlight lighted up the scene.
ComberS, sometimes ten feet high,
swept over the S-19, completely
obscuring her from view. Black
smoke belched from the Resolute's
funnel as she strained at the end
Of the hawser, but the submarine
failed to move.
The SIPS crew, on orders from
Washington and contrary to its
own wishes, has left the submarine
and is aboard the Wandank.
Becoming Center OF Isle
Two additional tugs; one from
Boston and the other from New
London, were today ordered to
join the fleet Of Government boats
already attempting to salvage the
submarine.
Hourly the sands that have sifted
in about the submarine are banked
higher by the motion of the sea
and naval officers realize that what
ever action is taken must be taken
quickly.
For this reason they have decided
to attempt to haul her off with
the unite d strength OF three tugs.
They realize that such force
may seriously damage the vessel,
but on tha other hand, If she is
not taken off soon she will be in
the center of an island Of sand.
