THE KILLING OF BLACK DOE By TRENTON CLURE (Copyrlcht by W. O. ChapmM?) PERHAPS I>unn should never hart- Joined the Northwestern mounted police, for of all types of men who are out of their 'eloment there, the moody, introspective, unaptressive man come* easily first. But Dunn had had a hankering after the military life when he went out to Calgary two years before. Now he was in for several years, and cursing his luck daily. What he liked best was the lonely patrols up In the Big Lake country. He had met Marie Bufour there, the daughter of an old trapper who had retired, like his fur-bearing beasts, before the march of civilization. He had seen her three times during the past two years, and it had been understood that when he became a corporal he was to speak to her father. But the coveted stripes would never be his so long as Sergeant Mitchell reran ined in the squadron. A hardfeatured. service-bitten man, Mitchell made Dunn’s life wretched. He inspected his uniform with an eagle eye that discovered the smallest speck or flaw, he hauled him before his officers on trivial charges; in short, he did his best to break Dunn or force him out of the service. It was a long time before Dunn discovered that Mitchell had met Marie in the Big Lake country the year before and coveted her beauty. When Dunn understood this he privately-re-solved that some day he would even up the score between them. For the present he remained quietly in bar-, racks, doing his duty and suffering under Mitchell's ill-treatment. The quiet life was interrupted by one of those periodical excitements that descended upon the barracks. Black Doe had shot a police officer at Neverport. and was making for the Big Lake country. Mitchell was ordered to take two troopers and get him. It was a Journey of two hundred miles, tn the slushy period of sprins. But the police never its vengeance when It can avoid 4t, and never abandons It. Dunn could not imagine what it was that impelled Mitchell to select him along with Crum. Perhaps Mitchell wished to see the man he most hated in Marie’s presence, so as to be more sure of his bearings. Whatever the motive, he selected Dunn, and he gibed at him all the way. He found fault with him during the long and painful day marches, with his equipment, his care of his horse, his manner of riding. He detailed him on one-man fatigues in the daytime, and gave, him all the difficult work. Dunn’s rage smoldered, but the idea in the hacfc of his mind that he would set even with Mitchell hardly assumed any tangible form. In due course they reached the store at Big Lake. Their visit was a ■•omplete surprise. Black Doe had been seen tn the neighborhood, and evidently was off his guard. Mitchell ascertained that he had made no purchases, without which it woqid be impossible for him to continue on bis way northward into the barrens. “Well spend the night at Johnny -Dufour’s.” be said to Crum, as the three rode away toward the shack. Dunn’s heart sank when he offsaddled. Marie was directly In the doorway to greet the visitors, and her eyes wandered with wonder from Dunn’s face to Mitchell’s. “Take my horse to the stables!” commanded Mitchell eurtly. “And. say I Take Crum’s, too. And see Ghat they’re well gruomed before t you come tn to supper.” Dunn went away obediently, riding his horse and leading the two others. Now he began to understand, he thought, the reason why Mitchell had selected him. He wanted to humiliate him in the eyes of the girl. \|.t supper Mitchell kept up a crossfire of chaff, banter and spitefulness, directed at Dunn. Dunn’s acquiescence seemed to enrage him. He would have welcomed a chgnce either 'or a brawl or for punishment for Iniiscipline; but Dunn only sat silently, watching Marie furtively, white the *ergeant’s eyes Were aligm, with triumph. He felt that he had won. had shown Marie his superiority over Dunn. They retired to their bunks. They vere to start up the trail at daybreak. on the quest for Black Doe. Dunn slept fitfully; he was thinking if Marie, and his heart was full of passionate resentment. He was the first up. and went to groom the horses. As he came back co the shack, he heard Mitchell's voice and the girl’s behind the open door. Mitchell bad his arui round her waist

Increasing Use Made of Castor Oil Plant

and was drawing het toward hli Crum was nowhere In sight. Then Dunn knew what he meant t» ' do. He crept back very softly to th stable and loaded his rifle. He tool it in his arms, carrying It as a mother might her first born, and approachec the door again. Mitchell held the girl In bls armnow. and she was struggling as h. tried to kiss her. Dunn, aiming de liberateiy. was conscious of the opet door at the back of the shack, and :< clump of dwarf fir about a hundred yards distant Then be concentrate* his attention upon Mitchell. Carefutl? be drew a bead on him so as to avoid hitting the girl. Bang! Mitchell leaped Into the air. flunu out his arms, and pitched head fore most. Dunn stepped into tl?e shack There was no need to look more than once at the dead face, or the blood oozing from the heart Marie ran to Dunn, sobbing wildly. “Ton did right the beast!“ she cried. “Come with me." said Dunn. They raced to the stables, and in a moment he had freed the horses, saddled them, and placed her on the sergeant’s. In another moment they were galloping across the barrens. At the time Dunn was conscious of worndering where old Dufour and Crum were. But a moment later they heard shouts behind them. They gallop! frantically forward, anywhere, so long as they could win free. Crum was a man of resolution, and Dnnn knew that he would take up the chase and never leave it. He reckoned on the fact that Crum’s horse was tb» slowest of the three. The freshly fall ing snow would hide their tracks if they could win the country across th* river bed. where a series of hummocks swelled into the Big mountains Far behind him Dunn beard a shout. He turned and looked back as he rode. Crum was standing at the deor of the stable, waving his arms to him. A few minutes later Dunn, looking back, saw Crum mounted and in pursuit of them, a tiny figure upon a t!n> horse. They rode madly for the dir toward the river. “We must be careful.” said Marie as they began the descent. “The rocks are dangerous.” Even as she spoke her horse tripped <>n a projecting bowlder, stumbled and flung her face downward ui»on the hard bed of the frozen stream Dunn leaped from his horse and kneeled beside her. She had been stunned by the fall; she opened her eyes and looked about her half-con-scious. The horse scrambled to its feet, ran up the bank, and raced back toward the stable, followed by Dunn’s horse. And Dunn, kneeling at Marie’s sid**. knew that chance had settled his particular And in the distance Crum came on inexorably. Dunn shrugged his shoulders as one who has played his last card. He car ried the girl up to the top bf the bant and waited for Crum, who came galloping up on his horse. He flung himself to his feet, panting, like his steed. “What’s the matter with you. to play this crazy trick afte» killing him?” he shouted. Dunn smiled. “I guess you're right. Crum.” he said. “Take the girl on your saddle; I'll walk. You iian trusv me.” Crum, staring at him In apparent perplexity, lifted Marie to the kaddU before him. She had fallen into s swoon again. Then he rode slowl' back toward the cabin, with Dttnt walking a 'little distance In front of him. He turned his horse away when near the stable, and went toward the little patch of stunted trees that had struck upon Dunn’s attention at the moment when he raided hts rifle Dunn saw the motionless body of a man lying hidden among them. I' was Black Doe. “How did yon <«* htm - Dunn?” asked Crum, dismounting and turning the body ovef. “See! He ha*’ just fired. You were In the nick of Ume.” The dead man’s fingers were clutched about the trigger; the rifle had been discharged; over his heart was a bullet wotind. Dunn, unable to speak, accompa nied Crum back to the shack Mitchell lay where he had fallen, and old Dufour was muttering in the corner, as If he did not understand. “He got poor Mitchell a second before you fired.” said Crum. “Over the heart, too. See!” Dnnn looked in horror now mixed with agitation. He saw that track of the bullet through the breast and out under the rib. The missile lay upon the floor beside the inert man. Tt was a battered .45. such as the Indians use. Dunn’s bullet had been a And it had been Black Doe whom be had killed, not Mitchell.

DAIRY FACTS FROZEN MILK IS NOT DESIRABLE • - How Is cow’s milk injured by freezing? In answer to that question F. C. Button, professor of dairying at the New Jersey State College of Agriculture, says: “Even a casual observer Is familiar with the visible effects that freezing has on milk. He can see that the cream in thawed .milk is not the same zs in normal milk. He also knows that the main portion o.f the milk becomes flaky when thawed. These are the physical changes which milk undergoes upon freezing. The fat is partially churned and its emulsion Is never completely restored after thawing. The casein or curd in frozen milk appears in flakes rather than in the original colloidal condition. “Freezing also, affects milk in a chemical way. The interference with fat emulsion makes frozen milk harder to digest than unfrozen milk For this reason infants should not be fed milk which has been frozen. “When milk becomes completely frozen, it is forced out of the bottle and lifts the cap. The milk may project as much as three or four inches. In this wav it may become contaminated with bacteria from blowing dust and from being licked by dogs and cats. Milk which has been frozen will not keep sweet as long as normal milk. “Where milk is delivered in the early morning hours, the consumer should provide some protection for the bottles. A box serves very wel and a burlap covering helps more in the extremely cold weather. The ideal arrangement would be to provide some place inside where the milkman could set the milk.” Should Cows Face in or to the Walls of Stable? The old question of whether cows should face toward the center or toward the walls of a dairy barn is not settled by the New York State College of Agriculture, which says that both plans have their ardent supporters. It lists the advantages of each, and leaves the individual farther to make his own ciioice. The question arises, as far as the college is concerned, in connection with a new bulletin on the construction of concrete floors for dairy sta hies, it advocates well-laid floors for permanence and durability, and gives complete details for laying them, tell ing how to mix. lay and finish the con Crete, with photographs and working drawings of the whole job, from start to completion, so that any handy man should not have trouble in getting a satisfactory result, and without prohibitive cost. Farmers whv ere contemplating the building of new stables or the remodeling of„old ones, are invited by the college to write to the office of publication of the NeW York State College of Agriculture at Ithaca for a copy of the bulletin which will be sent without cost. It is necessary only to use a plain 1-cent government postcard. giving the sender s name and address, written plainly, together with the symbol E 140, and the publication will be forwaided by return mail. Attention to Give Cows Afflicted With Garget Watch out for garget in a new milk cow these cold days. At the fir«t sign of a swollen udder or stringiness In the milk, cut down the animal’s grain ration until she is relieved, and give' her a dose of physic—castor oil or epsom sa’ts. Milk her gently several times * day. also kneading the udder with your hands, and keep the animal in place. After the physic has worked an ounce of saltpeter daily for two or three days is helpful. So. to. are hot cloths applied to the uddet for a few minutes every two or three hours—taking care that the udder does not afterward become chilled. Cows Mean More Profits in Diversified Farming How is dairying going to make/li versified farming more profitable? Diversified ■ farming means the growing of larger areas in grain crops. legumes and other hay and forage crops. If these are sold directly from the farm large amountsi of soil fertility will be carried away in these crops. By feeding these crops to dairy cattle at home and thus retaining most of their fertility on the farm for soil building, the farmer gets a profit in growing the crop and another in feed- , lug it. —Clemson College News Notes. Barley for Fattening Barley proved to be worth slightly more than corn for fattening calves at a test recently completed at the Colorado experiment station. The rate of gain for the corn and barley fattened ealves was practically the same. The two lots under comparison were fed corn silage, linseed cake and alfalfa hay in addition to the grain ration. There was a considerable saving in alfalfa hay with the barley-fed ealves. The calves fed barley outsold those fed com. Fattening in Winter Calves which are being fattened during the winter must be well fed to be ready for market next spring or early summer. They will require a full ration of corn together with sufficient protein and mineral matter to provide for growth and good gains. Alfalfa or clover hay will supply the necessary protein and minerals. When silage is fed a pound of cottonseed or linseed meal per steer should be included in the daily ration tor best rcuinlfft
