CHAPTER xxIv

When Luis Barro learned that Betty Mary had escaped from his ranch stronghold, he cursed In a manner that could have been called classic. One reason was uppermost in his mind: she knew that he was c smuggler, and probably knew most of his plans for bringing over the 100 or more aliens Sunday night.
 Naturally, Barro turned on his help to vent his anger, his head cook, all of his servants, and his guards. These latter he especially frightened, for on them rested the burden of keeping all prisoners He threatened them with severe punishment and they knew Bar ro's were seldom idle threats. But none of them, the guards, serv- ants, cook, alien customers, could even suggest how the young American senorita had gotten away. She had been at the rancho just before noon they said. She had not run past the guards. She had not hidden, for the premises had twice been thoroughly search ed. She had just vanished in broad daylight.
 In the end, Barro cooled down and took the affair more philo- sophically.
 ''It's no matter" he said to his aides. What if she does know our plans? What is one spy, now? Are we not strong? The gringo federales have bluffed and been very lucky. We shall have more than 100 men armed, no es ver- dad?"
 "Seguro si, Don Luis," one of them nodded.
 "But that girl maybe yet she can be found! I had promised her she would travel with me! If she has slipped back to Fl Paso - have the idea to get her again for my guest. We shall see if people can make fool of Luis Barro!"
 Ee might have conducted a search or pursuit of Betty Mary on an in- tensified scale, if the press of bus iness affairs had not interfered Aliens of several nationalities were now at his ranch, waiting shipment to the United States. They had paid high prices, some as much as 5000 each, American coin. He realized that he had to deliver the services he promised or they would not only expose him to Mexican authorities, they doubtless would slit his own throat too. Moreover, he held a de- finite pride in his efficiency and bra vado; especially now was he eager to put over grand coup on the United States Border Patrol.
 Normally he would have taken . half dozen or even two dozen aliens in cars to some point near the border, then walked them over at night. But this time 1t was not feasible to move 100 people in cars at once, without exciting suspicion. Nor could he move them a few at a time down state to the New Channel crossing where he expected to ford the Rio Grande, because there was the problem of feeding them even through their last night meal in Mexico.
 He would, therefore, transport them on horses. He had even

Hitler Wants Automobile For the Noses

"NsSs W VN'NS NAtSts'$6tiV For the Noses
 GERMANY IS still far behind V the United States in motori- zation. despite desperate attempt to whip up production in the last two years. Whereas there is an automobile for every four persons today in America. there is only one for every A in the Reich. So Der Fuehrer proposes to do some- thing about this. His demand is a car for the masses.
 Just what this typical Nazi au. tomobile must be Hitler outlined at the recent "Great German" au- tomobile and motorcycle show in Berlin First, 1t must be cheap, selling possibly for $400. Second, 1t must be drastically reduced in weight to save not only cost, but more important. material and fuel. Finally. the number of it's models must be restricted so that large scale production can be assured.
 Der Fuehrer, moreover. would cut down the capacity for speed in these new mass production au- tomobiles, although there has been no decree to that effect. Hit. Ter at the Berlin show denounced as criminal" reckless dsivers and insisted that the average maxi. mum speed must be SO miles, even on the best of Gcrmany's new super highways. He urged that Germany must become not only one of the biggest but safest. for traffic.

Farm News
-ByCOu,,ty Age,at

Later in the winter a series of
three farm management schools
will be conducted through the
county agents office, st. Cloud. En-
rollments for this school are re-
quested by the county agents Of
flee and should be made by Janu-
airy 10. With farm prices as they
are it becomes necessary for every
farmer to study production costs as
much as possible to enable him to
make any gains that are possible
in the agricultural field. Farm
management is one agricultural
project on which little work has
been done by the extension office
in Stearns county. With view of
encouraging this type Of work, the
above named schools will be con-
Quoted. Thirty-five to 40 enroll
ments will be accepted for the reg
ular school under the specialists
direction.
After the specialists schools have
been completed, the county agent
will conduct a series of farm man
aReHlenL meetings ONcI Iho SouheS
on the subject covered at the school.
Another hog cholera school will
be carried out in Stearns county
this year on February Is and. 16
through the county agents office,
ly st. Cloud. The location Of the
school has not yet been definite
ly determined but in a short time
announcements will be made in con-
nection with this. Last year a very
successful school attended by al
most 400 farmers was held in St.
Martin.
Again this year the school will
be conducted in cooperation with
the extension division at University
Farm, the Minnesota Livestock
Sanitary Board, and the county
agents office. DR.. w. A. Billings,
extension veterinarian, will again
conduct the school. Enrollments
for the school should be made on
the regular applications for that
purpose in the county agents Of

From Our EXCHANGES

Over at Henning, citizens dissati-
fled with high line service held an
election on a municipal power
plant and the proposition carried
by a vote of POI to 81, in record
turnout of votes that gave prac-
tically every citizen a voice in the
matter. But the Otter Tail Power
company stepped in when the vii
lage council met to let bids for a
plant and served a restraining Or
der from the courts, tieing the coun-
ellis hands. Is that what we mean
when we talk about democracy in
America?-Park Region Echo.

Of the exhaust pipe. I've had my
carburetOr checked but that did
not help. Can you tell me what is
wrong?
That is not gasoline, but water
which is formed as a product of
combustion. Do not be alarmed,
for no harm will result.-Norton
Ives, extension agricultural engin-
eer.
Is there any danger Of boiling
the liquid from grapes too long?
I tried to make jelly and boiled the
grapes for over an hour, but IL
would not stiffen, even after chill
ing I'm an ice box.
You probably boiled the liquid
too long. This period should be no
longer than needed to soften the
fruit, usually from to 10 minutes.
Long boiling tends to break down
the pectin, which, as you probably
know, is one of the substances nee
essary for jelly-making. Isabel
Noble, home economics division.
Under a $3.50 livestock share
lease how should the cost of apply
ing limestone be divided?
Spreading limestone requires
more man and horse labor than
seeding small grain. An arrange
ment that is usually fair, is for the
landlord to furnish the spreader
and limestone, delivered at the
farm. The tenant does the spread
ing. IF the tenant ceases to operate
the farm before the first years crop
is taken, he should be paid for his
labor and eXpense.-J. B. McNulty,
extension farm management spec
ialist.
What causes angel food cake to
be cOarse-grained? Is is because
Of too much beating of egg whites
or too hot an oven?
We usually associate a coarse
grain with too little beating rather
than too much. Too much beating
is likely to give a tough, dry cake,
but not necessarily a coarse-grain-
ed cake. If you beat about half
your sugar in white the egg whites
and reserve the other half of the
sugar to mix with the flour, you
can give the eggs a more thorough
beating without their becoming
dry. Beat only until they form
peaks. Too hot an oven may yield
tough angel food cake and it
might also cause it to be coarse
grained.-Ina B. Rowe, extension
nutritionist.
