The Settling of the Sage By HAL G. EVARTS Copyright by Hal Gs. Evarts WNU Service

CHAPTER Xl—Continued They rode from the devastated fields and angled southwest across rhe range.' When some ten miles from the Three Rar Harris dismounted on a ridge And sh • Joined him. listening with entire indifference to his opti listic plans. We’re only scratched," he said. “It won’t matter In the end.” “This L the end.” she dissented. ■“The T.ree Bar is done.” “It’s Just the start.” he returned. “It’s the end for them! Don’t you see? They staked everything on one big raid that would smash the ’ r "ve Bar and discourage the rest from duplicating our move. That would give Slade a new lease of life —delay the inevitable for a few more years. They made one tirfti attempt and lost. They’re through!” he asserted positively. “That’s their last shot. We’re only delayed—that’s all. The homestead cabins are only charred. The old buildings at the ranch are gone. I’ll put a crew in the hills getting out new logs and there’ll be enough out-of-job peelers riding'grub-line to rebuild th. whole place. We’ve got our land. The hay is tramped flat right now but the roots aren’t hurt. Next spring will show the whole flat coming up with a heavy stand of hay.” “You're a good partner. Cal,” she said. “You’ve done your best But the whole thing would only happen over again. Slade’s too strong for us.” “Slade’s through I” he asserted “He’s locked up and when he gets out his hands will be tied. Inside ot a month the law will be in the saddle for t*»e first time in years. Once Alden gftis a grip on things, with folks behind him, he’ll never lose it again.” He painted the future of the Three : Bur as the foremost outfit within a hundred miles, but her mind was busy with a future so entirely differ ent from the one he portrayed that she scarcely grasped his words. Al ways she had heard her .parents speak of the day when they should go back home; and she had always ? felt that the day would come when j she, too, would live in the place from which they had come—with frequent trips back to the range. The love for the ranch had delayed her departure from year to year. But now the old familiar buildings were gone and there were no ties to hold her here, or even to call her back once she was gone. Harris rose and pointed, rousing tier from* her abstraction. Down in the valley below them filed a long line of dusty horsemen. “There is the law’’* he said. “That’s what I brought you here to see. It’s what we’ve been waiting for. That little procession stands for organized law!” She turned and looked behind her as her ear caught the thud of hoofs and jangle of equipment The Three Bar men were just topping the ridge Harris knew that action, not inaction was the best outlet for her energies, temporarily smothered by the shock of the raid. “I thought maybe you’d like to go." he said. “The jaunt will do you good.’ She showed the first sign of interest she had evidenced. “And we’re going to the Breaks," she stated. . “That’s where," he said. “We’ll order them to give up and stand trial They won’t. Then we’ll clean them out. Hunt them down like rats!” The little band in the valley was ■drawing near. She recognized Carp, Bentley and another Slade man rid ing with the sheriff at their head. “What’s Bentley doing there?” she asked. “One of Carp’s men," Harris said. “If any of them get awayl from us ■Carp will hound them down. He wears the 0. S. badge and won’t be stopped by any feeling about cross ing the Ctah or Idaho lines. Rustling is of no interest to him. Thar’s the sheriff’s Job. But Carp will round them up for obstructing the home stead laws.” The Three Bar men came up and (halted. Harris and flie girl changed mounts and led their men down to join the file of riders below. It was well after sundown when they halted in a sheltered valley Waddles cooked a meal over an open fire. Bed rolls were spread and the men were instantly asleep. Three hours before sunup the cook was once more busy round a fire. The meal was bolted and etftih man lashed a generous lunch on his saddle before riding off. Daylight found them twenty miles from camp and the horses were breathing hard. They turned into a coulee threaded by a well-worn trail. Three miles tflong this Bentley turned to the right up a branching gulch with eight men. Anotner mile and Carp led a similar detachment -off to the left Billie rode with the sheriff and Harris at the head of the rest, holding to the beaten trail. Harris motioned to Billie. “You fall back,” he said. The men had drawn their rifles from the scabhards “They never did post a guard. But there’s Just a chance. So little piece you’d better bring up t™' rear.” Harris turned up a side pocket an I the men wfiited while he and the sheriff climbed a ridge on foot to In vpstigate. Harris motioned to the <irl. “Come along up where you can see • h< said «pd site followed them

“From behind 8 sage-clump Har rls trained his glasses on the group a mile out across the shallow basin Two men stood before a teepee near rhe stockade. There were two other tents inside the structure, with » number of men moving about them. He handed his glasses to the girl. “We’ll be starting.” he said. ‘By the time we get fixed the rest will be closing in. You stay here and watch the whole thing.” “I’m going along," she said. "I’m as good a shot as there is In the hills. And it was my ranch they burned ” The sheriff shoved back his hat and pushed his fingers through his mop of gray hair. “Fact.” he confessed. “Every word But there’s swarms of men In this country —and such a d —n scattering few of girls that we just can’t take the risk. That’s how it is. If you don’t promise to stay out of it we’li have to detail a couple of the boys- U ride guard on you till it’s over with.” She knew that the other men would back Harris and Alden in their verdict She nodded and watched them turn back toward the horses. There was nothing spectacular in the attack of Harris and the sheriff. They went about it as if hunting vermin. cautiously and systematically, taking every possible advantage of i Oct “We’re in Better Shape Than Ever Before.” the enemy with the least possiblerisk to their men The advance was slow as they closed in on the stock ade. There was a sudden commotion among the men at the building. They were moving swiftly under cover. Some of the attacking force had been seen. The majority of the rustlers took to the stockade. Four ran into ■ the main cabin. it was as if she gazed upon the activities of battling ants, the whole game spread out in the field of her glasses. There came a lull in rhe action and she knew that the sheriff had raised his voice to summon them to come out without Uieir guns and go back as prisoners to stand trial for every crime under the sun. Not a shot had been tired. Inside the stockade she could see Lang’s men kneeling or flattened on the ground as they gazed through cracks in the walls. She made out Harris, crouching in a draw. A thin haze of smoke spurt ed from his position. Three similai puffs showed along the face of the stockade. Then the sounds of the shots drifted to her—faint, snappy reports. Throughout the next halfhour there was no,t a shot tired in the flat; no general bombardment, no wild shooting, but guerilla warfare where every man held his tire for a definite human target A man shifted his position in the stockade, raised to peer from a hole breast high, and she saw him pitch down on the ground before the sound of the shot reached her. One of her men had noted the darkening of the crack and had searched him out with a rifle shot. Three shots answered it from the main cabin. She presently noted one ot net men sitting under a sheltering bank and eating his lunch. She looked a* her watch; it w’as after three—the day more than half gone and less than a hundred shots had been tired Five men were down in the stockade The shadows lengthened rapidly and her view through the glasses was beginning to blur when the gates ot the stockade swung back and five horses dashed out. running at top speed under the urge of the spurs, a wild stampede -for safety, every man for himself. Sne saw one man lurch sidewise and slip to the ground; another straightened in the saddle, swung toi two Jumps, and slid off backward across the rump of his mount Th»= shooting ceased when ’ six shots hao tired.

Old Dog Wouldn’t Be Left Out of Picture

This dog sto y is told by Harry Preston in his sporting reminiscences, “Memories”—a delightful panoramic view of the sporting world of America and England for the last fifty years, reprinted in the Kansas City Times: Tom Gannaway, owner ot many winning bull terriers, had a wonderful, almost human, old dog. who had beep regularly shown with great success. Gannaway lived just off Westminster. One day he was preparing two other dogs for the show at the Horticultural hah in Westminster. The old dog looked on. He was not entered, and so was left behind. DurH<g the afternoon a friend of Gannaway’s said to him: “You haven’t entered the old dog. have you. Tom?” “No,” said Gannaway. “Well,” said the friend, “he’s here, all the s&rne.” And in fact the dog had gone on his own ami taken over a spare bench and now mil there, looking quite un-

THE SYRACUSE JOURNAL. SYRACUSE, INDIANA

The stockade was only four In the house to be accounted for. A tiny point of light attracted her eye. It grew and spread. She knew that one of, her men hat crawled up under cover of night auc fired the bouse. She thought of 'be burning buildings on the Three Bat and rose to make her way back tc the pocket where the horses had beer left in the care of a deputy. All through the day she bad scarcely moved and she was tired. The hours of inactivity had proved more wearing than a day in the saddle. Harris and the sheriff came tn with their detail. There were no prisoners. A little later Bentley’s men rode up and five minutes behind them came Carp with the rest, and al! hands turned in. At daylight the long return Journey to the Three Rar was commenced. Twenty miles out from the ranch and before noon of the next day the sheriff and the marshals had split off with their men. leaving the Three Bar crew jjto ride the short intervening space to the ranch alone. As she neared the edge ot the Crazy loop valley the girl dreaded the first glimpse of the pillaged ranch. They had reached the edge of the valley and she looked down upon tne ruins. “Now I’m ready to go," she said “I’ll go and see what Judge Colton wants.” “He wanted you to get away before anything like this occurred.” Harris said. “I knew that maybe we’d have tough going for a while at some critical time and wanted you to miss all of that —to come back and find the Three Bar booming along without having been through all the grief. So 1 wrote him to urge you to come.” “Well, I’m going now,” she said. “I don’t need to be urged.” Harris pointed as they rode down the slope. The little cabin that old Bill Harris had first erected on the Three Bar, and which had later sheltered the Warrens when they came into possession of the brand, stood solid and unharmed among the blackened ruins which hemmed it in on all sides. “Look, girl!” he exclaimed triumphantly. “Look at that little house. The Three Bar was started with that 1 We have as much as our folks started with —and more. They even had to build that. We’ll start* where our folks did, and grow.” CHAPTER XII Harris sat on a baggage truck and regarded the heap of luggage somberly. Way off in the distance a dark blot of smoke marked the location of the onrushing train which would take the Three Bar girl away. “Some day you’ll be wanting to come back, old partner.” he predicted hopefully. The Three Bar isn’t hurt. We’re in better shape than ever before and a clear field out in front; for the country is cleaned up and the law is clamped on top.” She honestly tried to rouse a spark of interest deep within her, some ray of enthusiasm for the future of the Three Bar. But there was no response. She assured herself again that the old brand which had meant so much to tier meant less than nothing now. That part of her was dead. The trail of smoke was drawing near. Harris leaned and kissed her. “Just once for luck," he said, and slipped from his seat on the truck as the train roared in. Good-by. little fellow, i’ll se* you next round-up time.” As the train slid away from the station she looked from her window and saw him riding up the single street on the big paint-horse. The train cleared the edge of the little town and passed the cattle chute. Three wagons, each drawn by four big mules, moved toward the cluster of buildings which comprised the town, the freighters on their way to haul out materials for the rebuilding of the ranch. The work was going on but she no longer had a share in it. She was looking ahead and planning a future in which the Three Bar played no part. Deane was with Judge Colton, her father’s old friend, to meet her at the station. As they rode toward the Colton home she told the Judge she had come to stay and Deane was content. After the strenuous days she had just passed through she needeo a long period of rest, he reflected; but the older man smiled when he suggested this. “What she needs now is action.” he said. “And no rest at all. Cal Warren’s girl isn't the sit-around type.” Deane acted on this and no day pissed without his having planned a part of it to help fill her time. And in the late winter, after having visited school friends who lived farther east, she found herself anticipating the return to the Colton home as eagerly as always in the past she had looked forward to seeing the Three Bar after a long period away from it. <TO BE CONTINUED. 1 !

Jews and Samaritans The historical origin ot the hatred that existed between the Jews and tiie Samaritans may be found in the fact that when Sargon, the conqueror of Israel, destroyed the northern kingdom he repopuiated Samaria with colonists from Babylon. Assyria and Cutah. Later Instructors were sent to these people in an attempt to instruct them in the worship of Jehovah; but, when the temple at Jerusalem was being rebuilt, the Jews refused to allow the Samaritans to help, thus increasing the rift between the two peoples.

Mirrors Regain Their Popularity for Walls Mirrors and pictures are vying for places on the walls of our homes today. Everywhere possible mirrors are being placed. One of the most interesting situations is between the second and third and the third and fourth of the series of three windows that most apartment living rooms possess. The very narrow space between these windows accommodates a Venetian panel mirror very well. Because it is frameless this mirror will seem to have more life and gleam to it than the mirror incased in a frame. Perhaps directly above or below this decoration something will seem to be needed—perhaps a candle in a single brass sconce will do nicely. In Heating, Secure Cold Air From Several Pipes The principle of warm-air heating is that of connection and a combination of methods involved in all heating processes. Air is drawn in and is heated by coming in contact with hot-metal surfaces. In the best apparatus the cold air is taken in. not through one pipe and heated en masse, but passes through a number of pipes surrounding the heat chamber of the furnace, in which it is thoroughly heated, resulting in small streams of air which are passed up through separate heat duets to the various rooms, where the heat emerges warin and moistened from the register in the wall or floor. Damp Cloth Best to Clean Varnished Floor To clean a properly varnished floor wipe it with a cloth dampened in lukewarm water. It is unnecessary to scrub, scald, oil or soap a varnished floor to keep it clean. Its hard surface will not permit dirt to reach and impregnate the wood. When a varnished floor begins to show the effects of hard wear—once a year or oftener, if necessary—sandpaper it lightly and put on a new coat.

Blue Prints Keep Tab • on Where Money Goes Building a bouse without blue prints and specifications is the easiest way to waste money. Properly drawn blue prints, with accurate specifications, are simply a detailed plan for the spending of your money. It means that you have things planned out in advance of building and that all expenses have been anticipated. You know what you pre going to get from the beginning to the end. Accurately preibarefl blue prints and specifications ars worth many times more than they cost, for without them time /is lost in trying to study out how oie different parts go together, and ti|ere -are endless opportunities for th’e making of changes and substitutions.|with an accompanying greater expanse and probably cheapening of tiie huality of materials.

The dining room is a front corner room at the right of the entrance while the kitchen is 11 feet by 8 feet. An open stairway leads from the side of tlie living room to the second floor. Opening off the hall is the bathroom, adjacent to the head of the stairs, and three bedrooms, all corner rooms and all of good size.

Tiie habit of doing this every spring in city and country houses and in office buildings preserves the fresh, elegant appearance of good floors. Black for Sun Parlor Gives Pleasing Contrast Black is often used in decorating sun parlors, either as a background for the bright splashes of other color, or as a contrast here and there. Because the sun porch is so sunny and so colorful, it can stand some black, which would, perhaps, not be possible in an indoor room. Think of sucli a sun porch on a summer afternoon —a big wicker armchair or porch swing with bright cushions, and a near-by table holding magazines and lemonade glasses! On a winter afternoon it is just as enticing. Put Furring on Inside to Keep Cellar Dry To appreciate the difficulties of making any kind of a masonry wall dampproof, it is necessary to understand that acthal dampness does not penetrate these walls so much as the cold. When the walls are cold condensation gathers on them and we then have what appears to he dampness coming through them. To avoid this we make the walls coklproof. This is done by applying furring on tiie inside walls as,a base for the lath and plaster. This is a sound type of construction. Half of Homes Have Antiquated Fixtures A committee of engineers lias made a recent survey of electrical wiring in this country to determine how well equipped hbmes are to make use of electricity. It has reported that more than half the houses that are already wired are using antiquated fixtures, many of them need rewiring and practically everyone of them has too few electric outlets to permit the occupants to get the full benefit of the electricity they buy.

modern convenience of the city residence in the farmhouse. Heating is naturally considered first. Stoves and fireplaces are disappearing. Basement heating plants are in common use, one of the most popular types being the pipeless furnace. This is because of the fact that little heat is thrown out except through the top. which allows the basement to continue to be used for storing foods. All types of warm air, steam and hot water heating plants are installed on farms nowadays, however. Running water is just as essential on the modern farm as in the city, as plumbing systems, sewerage disposal and efficient laundries depend upon a constant water supply. Aside from the house supply, water should ■be available for the dairy barn, feedint yards, garage, lawn and garden anc for fire protection. It is to be noted that the small water tank in the attic and the larget water tower outside the house are being supplanted by steel tank pressure systems located in the basement 01 burled-under ground.

FARM’ POULTRY COCCIDIOSIS IS EASY TO CONTROL Success Depends to Large Extent on Recognition. Success in controlling coccidiosis depends to a large extent on immediate recognition of the affected chicks, points out .J. C. Taylor, associate poultry speciali.'t at the New Jersey College of Agriculture. Rutgers university. New Brunswick. It is possible for chicks to become infected with coccidiosis at any time during the growing period, but tiie disease generally makes its appearance when the birds are between four and eight weeks old. Chicks that have coccidiosis will stand around near the stove or in the corner of the brooder house with their eyes closed and, wings down. The beaks and legs of the affected chicks will be white. To diagnose coccidiosis definitely, it is a good plan to cut open one or two of the affected chicks. The cece, or two blind pouches of the intestines, of diseased chicks will be greatly enlarged and filled with a hard, cheesy mass. When such conditions are found, steps should he taken io stop the spread of the disease. The disease is spread principally through the droppings of the affected chicks, and for this reason the brooder house should be cleaned every five days. K£ep the chicks off the bare ground around the brooder house by moving the house to a new location. In some cases where the house cannot be moved it is a- good practice to confine the ehicks to the brooder house. It has been found that feeding plenty of milk is a great help in controlling coccidiosis. The following ration composed of 40 per cent milk has proved valuable for use at the time of the outbreak; 40 pounds dried skim milk or buttermilk. 30 pounds ground yellow corn, 20 pounds ground rolled oats, and 10 pounds wheat bran. This mash should be given the chicks as soon as the disease is recognized and kept before them as long as they appear affected. The scratch grain should be greatly reduced so that all chicks will be compelled to eat the mash. Provide plenty of hopper space so the chicks can eat without crowding. When all symptoms of the disease disappear, gradually change the ration to the regular feed that the chicks were given at tiie time of the outbreak. Gravelly Soil Is Most Desirable for Sites Poultry yards and the sites for poultry houses should be selected with a view to dryness and shelter. A sandy, gravelly soil is niost desirable for this purpose, while the lay of the ground should he such as to provide a free natural drainage. If the topography is of such a nature as to render the latter difficult or impossible, recourse must ho had to some artificial means of securing dryness. Excessive moisture of the environment is always objectionable from the standpoint of poultry production, while furthermore the presence of surface water, which birds are apt to drink, must be regarded as a very serious source of mischief. F<>r this reason, pools and puddles, tilled wagon ruts or open drains should never be tolerated in yards used for poultry. Making Plans Now for Improvement of Flock As the returns from the flock depend largely upon the number of eggs laid, we must first get better stock. This means stock with the ability to lay more eggs bred into them. In the case of farm flocks, this may be brought about by improving the present flock or by tiie purchase of new foundation stock. The method that appeals to the true poultryman is the former. Starting with what you have, provided it is of a standard breed, it is possible to see a marked change in a few years. This may be brought about without the use of the trapnest. although exact records will hasten the process of improvement. ’

Some Chicken Don’ts Don’t use eggs for batching from hens that have laid heavily all winter. Don’t start the hatching season with any old rooster. Don’t use pullet eggs for hatching. Don’t run away with the idea that one rooster is good for more than fifteen to twenty hens. Don’t feed too heavy with meat while you are saving eggs for hatching. Don’t keep eggs over ten days. Best First Feed Sour skim milk or buttermilk is the best first feed for baby chicks, but they should be given no feed until they are from forty-eight to seventy-two hours old. To feed chicks too early may cause common white diarrhea. After the first feed of sour milk or buttensilik give a chick grain consisting of equal parts of fine cracked corn and cracked wheat or rolled oats. An amount of scratch feed should be fed five times a day which can be cleaned up in 15 minutes. ’ Lice Are Enemies Lice ace a great annoyance to sitting turkey hens and are one of the worst enemies of young poults. To prevent their getting a foothold, the hen should be dusted thoroughly with some good lice powder before she is placed on the nest, and.then both the hen and nest should be similarly treated once a week for the first three weeks of the incubation period. The nesting material should be kept clean, and if the eggs become dirty they should be washed ■
