O. Rodgers^ managing ~~ director, was aroused from his sleep by telephone, to be informed that the mill was on fire. ~* ln its dry state and with the accum. -uiation cf oil and grease the flames spread so rapidlv that - it was imposs- ible to start up the engines and get the pumps to worke consequently very little of the plant was salvaged. Thanks to their being no wind the flames did not spread to the lumber yard, and due to a steady demand for boxes the quantity of crates and boxes in the factory was-not very large. The mill was a single bandsaw plant with a caparitv of fifty thousand feet a shift, with a full equipment of planers, re-saw, etc. and the "des true tion of these latter -along with the boiler; engine and electric plant"' is most uitiraely as they were due for removal to the "box factory that the firm has about completed the erection of in the yard at Creston.

Far up the street, he could distinguish a huddled mass, pierced by flashes ot" fire, which he took to be horsemen; as he watched, he "heard scattered shots and a faint sound of -yelling. The one hasty glance told him all that he needed to know; he had not thought this move would come so soon, but luck seemed tc be against him all around. Something of a fatalist, in the final analysis, he no longer wasted time in anger or regrets. He -was not particularly alarmed, and would not have been so could he have known the truth, that the yelling he had heard marked the passing of Tug Bailey, who had confessed but had made his confession too late to please the crowd, which had him in it tpower. Nevertheless, Moran realized that there was no time now to form his men into-any- thlng Hke organized resistance. The eneniy had caught him napping, and the jig was up. __ He had seen the vigilantes work before, and he knew that if he intended to save his own *kin he must act quickly. When he turned from the window-, short though the interval had been, he had formed a plan of escape. "They've brought every man they could rake up." Jed --added. "1 reckon they've combed every ranch in the county to start this thing." Moran looked up'quickly, struck by the significance of the remark. If it were true, and it probably was, thon Wade's ranch also would be deserted. He half opened his mouth, as though to confide in Lis companion, when he evidently concluded to keep his own counsel. "All right," he said simply. "I guess there's still plenty of time. I've got a good horse ar. the lower end of the street. Take eare of vourself. Ko long I" The man clattered t'own the stairs, nnd Moran turned to his desk, from which he took iom*? papers and a roll of mop.PT, which he stuffed into his jjOcketH. Tn the hallway he paused for a. morm-ni to examine a wicked looking revolver, which he took from his hip pocket; for. contrary to the ���������custom of the country, he did not wear his gun openly in a holsier.

It was c1ose upon noon, -and the silvery sagebrush was shimmering beneath the direct rays of the sun, when he rode his lathered horse out of a cottonwood grove to gaze, from the edge of ���������a dee"p^ draw, at Wade's ranch\buildings. That very morning a gaunt, gray timber-wolf had peered forth at almost the same point; and despite Moran's bulk, there was a hint ol a weird likeness be tween man and beast in the furtive suspicfous survey they made of the premises. The wolf had,finally turned back toward the- mountains, but Moran advanced. Although he was. reasonably certain .that the place was deserted, a degree of caution, acquire!! overnight, led him. first to assure himself of the fact. He tied his horse-to a fence post and stealthily approached the house to enter by the baek door. x^orotiiy was aione in. tn6.; u>U2iuxSg, for her mother had gone with the overly confident Barker to pick black berries, and' the Chinese cook was temporarily ahtent. The girl was making a. bed, when the door swung open, jpid she turned with a bright greeting, thinking- that her mother had returned, When she saw Moran leering at her, the color fled from her cheeks, in a panic of fright which left her unable to speak or move. She was looking very pretty and dainty in a cool, fresh gown, which fitt-^-a" her neatly, and her jsleeves were rolled up over her shapely forearms, for the task of housekeeping which she had assumed. In her innocent way, she would have stirred the sentiment in any man, and to the infiamfed brute before her she seemed all the more delectable because helpelss. Here was a revenge beyond Moran's wildest dreams. To her he appeared tlie incarnation of evil, splashed and sweaty, as his puffed and blood-shot eyes feasted on her attractiveness. "Good morning!" He. came into the room and " closed the door. "I didn't expeet to find you, but since you're here, I'll stop long enough to return your visit of the other night. That courteous, ain't it?" Dorothy gulped down the lump in her throat, but made no reply. Real izing the importance of a show of bravery, she* was fighting -to conquer her panic. "You're sure a good-looking kid," he went on, trying to approach herr hut she put* the width of the bed between bim and herself. ."Each time I see you, you're better looking than you were the last time. Say, that. last time, we were talking some about a kiss, weren't we, when we were interrupted?" "Mr: Wade may come in at any moment," Dorothy lied desperately, having found her tongue at last. "You'd better not let him. find you here." "I shouldn't mind," Moran said nonchalantly. "Fact is, on my way out of the country, I thought I'd pay a farewell call on jay good friend, Wade. I'm real sorry he ain't here���������"and then again I'm not. I'll���������I'll leave my visiting card for him, anyhow." ' He chuckled, a nasty, throaty, mirthless chuckle that sent chills up and down the girl's spine. "Say, what's the matter with giving .me that kiss now? There's nobody around to interrupt us this time." Dorothy shuddered, for already, she had divined what was in his mind. The avid gleam in his eyes had warned her that he would not restrain himself for long, and summoning all her strength and courage, she prepared to meet the fearful crisis she must face. "Will you ukase go?" "No!" Moran chuckled again, and stepped toward her. "Will you come to me now, or shall J go after you?" "You brute! You coward!" she cried, when she found herself, after a desperate struggle, held firmly in his grasp. She screamed, then, at the top of her lung power until his hand tell firmly across her mouth, and she could only si niggle with the mad strength of desperation. Her muscles could offer him no effective resistance, although for a moment lhe sudden fury of her attack drove him back, big though he was; but. it was only for a moment. It gave her a chance. to scream once more; then, closing in upon her, he seized hr-t* ngnin in his ape Hke embrace. She fought like a cornered wild-cat, hut slowly and surely he whs bending her to his will. Her nails were leaving raw marks upon him, until the blood ran down his face, and presently catching between lier leeth one of She fingers of the hand whieh gagged her, Bhe bit it'so fiercely iiui** he crfr-d out in pain.

Flyers Mystery of trie Heavens On I and n- Inventors Spent Much Time struments, to Measure Sun Stars Professor II. Turner, in a lecture delivered at the Royal Institute, said that we could make a soup-plate seem the same size as the sun or the moon by putting it at a suitable; distance from the eye. The subject of his lecture was, "The Size of aistar," and he told 4-his audience how ingenious world astronomers had been in inventing accurate methods of measurements. "You -wiU^have noticed that the sun and the moon seem to'be the same si&e, but the sun is 400 times larger than the moon. Now, eyen if we know the distaste-,of the stars from the earth, they seem to be of no size at all, even in the biggest telescopes." It looked as if it were not possible to kiiotv the size of the stars until Michelson, the American, showed how to adapt a small telescope to a system of mirrors. In that way the first star, Alpha, in the constellation of Orion, was measured and found to be 400 times as large as the sun. It was hoped to measure a.smaller star in the future.

First of all let it be said that Canada holds fourth place among the countries of the world in actual volume of exports, and in proportion of exports to population this country occupies first place For the twelve months ending; June, 1923, the Dominion was a world trader to the value of $1,844,000,000, whereas the world trade of the United States during the same twelve months amounted to $7,738,000,000. tt>r to put it another way, white our population is roughly one twelftji that ^of the United States our foreign trade is almost one-quarter that of the United States. In a word we are per capita the largest foreign traders in the world. That _.does not look as if wo are headed straight for thh pawnbrokers. A quarter century ago the investment of foreign capital other than British iu this country in this oouutry was praotioally Mil. Today it is estimated that United States capitaliinveatcd in Canadian enterprises and in Canadian seouritiea amounts to $2,500,000,000, or al most as muoh as the total investment of British capital in this country. Statistic recently issued by tho Canadian Pacific Bail way indicate that United .State^invest* ore now hold $701,000,000 of our seouritios, government, provincial and municipal issues, as against $511,000,000 held by British invest ors. The total agricultural iuvest- amountfrepresented in manufacturing amounted to $3,230,000,000, a grand total of. well upward of ten billioi s of dollars, an investment much oyer $1,000 for every man, woman and child in the country. This does not look as if we were quite broke, does it?

Constitutional A.niendment Is Needed The lamentable effects of the Senate's action in blocking the policy of the directorate o~ tlie Canadian National Railways, the Federal Government and the House of Commons, all of which bodies were agreed upon the necessity of constructing certain branch lines, are already in. evidence, and as time passes the seriousness oi the blow struck at Canadian progress and prosperity -will bocome even clearer. -- ~ -���������*" Charles "McDonald. M.L..A. for Prince Albert, and a man not given to exaggeration, nor one likely to be guilty of misrepresentation, is authority for the statement that settlers are already leaving the Paddockwood district because, after years ot struggle and waiting for a railway, the .grade for which has already been made, they see the Government and the elected representatives of the people powerless before an irresponsible Senate. Three elevators which would have been constructed along this line this year will not be built, while creameries and. other industries cannot be proceeded with nor operated with any hope of success. Announcment h������s been made in the daily press that, owing to the Senate's action in placing their veto on the extension of the C.N.R. line from Reiving? ton. the Cfinadian^Pacific has decided to proceed at once with the extension of" their lines into the territory which the C.N.R. would have served, and, unhampered by Senatorial control, the C.P.R. lias let a contract for the immediate building of their line. Nobody can blame the C.P.R. for thus pre-empting the territory. It is merely good business on their part, and if the Senate will not let the Canadian National build, then the people in the district concerned will most heartily welcome the energy displayed by the C.P.R. But how can Sir Henry- Thornton and the directorate of the Canadian National be expected to make that system a financial success if their well considered plans for the development of business are to be nullified by the Senate? As was pointed out in a previous article, not only do the districts to be served by these short branch lines badly need them if the settlers there are to make a "success of their farming operations and become contented and prosperous citizens, but the Canadian National must remsiu handicapped with its thousands of miles of main lines unless and until it lias many more branch lines as feeders to their main lines. And every one of the branches "killed" by the'Senate would have helped materially in increasing the volume of traffic over the whole C.N.R. system. It is useless to ask the Government to go ahead and build the lines despite the Senate's opposition. The Government is powerless unless Parliament' approves and votes the necessary money. it is equally useless to pass resolutions condemning the Senate's action unless people and organizations responsible for such resolutions are ready, willing*and determined to fore������ a complete reform of the Senate'as at present constituted. The Senate is In������- mune af present. Its members are quite indifferent to any public (criticism of its acts, because those members know the people are pe'werless to do anything. Surely the time has arrived when definite steps should be inaugurated to bring about a change in our country's constitution whereby the present menace of an irresponsible Senate c*tn be removed. The political party which has the courage to place a positive and clear-cut plank in its platrorm providing i'or Senate reform would undoubtedly rally a very large measure of support to its banner. Certain it is that the.jnogressive Western Provinces will not much longer remain content to be the"victims of the Senate's autocracy and irresponsibility. Australia lias the power to amend its own constitution. Why should Canada not enjoy the same right? The British North America Act was drafted and passed over.half a century ago when the powers conferred on self- governing Dominions were not so great as tliose granted to other Dominions created at later periods, notably Austra-lia and Ireland. The Canadian constitution was a broad and liberal one at the time of its enactment. But ihe world has progressed far since 18(57. and no valid reason exists why the Canadian people should today be penalized because their Dominion was the first to be created. The first step that should be taken, and taken at the earliest opportunity, is to obtain from the Imperial Parliament an amendment to the British North America Act conferring on the Parliament of Canada full right and power to amend its own constitution in such manner as the ^people of Canada may themsHives desire. And if Canada asks for such an amendment to the B.N.A. Aci, il is sate to say the Imperial Government and Parliament will not deny the request.

B. ..CL iA / n rf f Claim Is J^Iade That LiHie t ;- Has^ Almost jMagical Effect Ii3L.'Tke Prodxiction Of Ciso-ps (By ������nanew j. Torquay) There has been a growing conviction, "among "agricultural experts Sn "Western Canada during the past few years that the time was fast approaeh- hag-'when the farmers of the older settled portions. of the country must:pay more attention to the problem of keeping their,, lands fertilized, first^ by natural means through a more serious ���������rotation of crops and the introduction of legumintfus crops���������clovers, etc., in their crop rotation, .and second/ through the direct feeding of cropped lands by concentrated fertilizers. ���������-��������� Farmers ot* this country are ..facing the inexorable law that "we have got tb get." Nature has given and "will continue to respond generously if pnly given a vchance. Our soils gave freely ot" their stores of plant foods until, after years' of cultivation, the nutriments once locked up.In the soil bja-ing gradually absorbed by repeated cropping are. showing signs ot* diminishing productiveness*; These conditions need not continue if proper -measures are adopted to replace .what has been removed. There are many soils? in elder countries which have .been successfully farmed for hundreds of years and are producing as abundantly today as at any time in their history. There is a reason for this* scientific methods have been learned and applied resulting in a steady production being Maintained. - The cultivation of the soil requires as -much technical knowledge as afty other industry, and when an individual, either by choice or chance, engages in farming, he assumes the responsibility of*vmaking the most of what'the soil -will afford. The-'farmer who disregards the teaching of agricultural science and who will not acquaint himself with remedies for conditions which .ponfronFhim will most surely suffer the consequences of either ignorance or neglect. En the past the farmer has J*ound it unnecessary to really pay sufficient attention to the production of quality and of increasing the yield per acre erf his crop.' An old proverb says: "When the market is brisk the seller does not take time to wash the mud from his turnips." The application ot" fertilizers has not yet become a general practice in this country. When it is taken up and the proper rotation of crops- becomes general our fields will be cleaner, the pest of weeds in grain will disappear and a hazard of blight and insect damage will be lessened, while at the same time it is reasonable to anticipate that the yield on" properly fed and cared for ground will increase materially. In England and in the oldest section of American farm land, wheat crops averaging over 40 bushels to \.\ie acre are the rule rather tlian therexcepticn. In first studying application of fertilizers to soils, ihe student is struck with two facts���������first, the essential character of Ume as a base for toll soil fertilizing substances; and second, the comparative economy by whieh Hrae-s and limo product a, suit a bio' for fertilisation, can be obtained and applied in Western Canada. While there aro many manures anil fertilizers, natural and artificial, of greater or lesser value according to whstt they contain, the purpose of this article is to call attention to" one material of outstanding merit.���������lime. Lime is plentiful,. reailjly* obtainable, easily applied by tin*1 u������e of a drill ��������� . nssuririM Jncrnased pr6duciion, and as a first aid I'or mb'st .soil 1 roubles there Is possibly..no more efficacious remedy, A direct fertilizer is-ft"plant food in which I here nre el tun en ts of plant nutrition available for use.

N. U. 14 S3 present in the soil, uniting with them or changing them from unavailable to available form. Lime is an example of an indirect fertilizer. It not only acts chemically upon the organic and inorganic constituents of 'soils,. but it'exerts a very powerful influence upon their physical condition. It is claimed to have an almost magical effect on crop production. Lime is not only an essential part of plant life, but by its chemical activity the organic and mineral^ constituents of soils are discomposed or are converted into., compounds that can be readily assimilated by plants. It is present in almost every cultivated soil sufficient for the requirement of vegetation. Nevertheless, a proportion is. heing constantly carried away by drainage, a proportion enters into combination with other elements, whilst some descends below root depths. The most profound action of Hme in soils fs as a floccule. Take a glass of muddy water and add a quantity of pulverized lime���������there is an almost immediate change in .the arrangement of parlicles; they appear first to draw together in* light fluffy groups which then-arapidly settle to the bottom so" that the top liquid becomes nearly clear, the lime practically surrounds and envelops each particle, with the result that whatever mineral matter is contained in the particles is separated into individual grains or granules. In, such form it i_s ready for absorption by the plant1. The effect ���������on soil is to convert it from a compact to a finely granulated condition, in other words, lime carries on and continues the process started by the action of the jjIow. Every farmer should study the fertility of the soil from which he draws his.sustenance and should plan to take these steps which, are necessary to main tain*'and inerea seethe fertility of his' fields. He will probably find lime, in direct application, to be the first and wisest method of beginning to build up.jiis soil. Lime is present in mahy forms-in Western Canada, and there are already- in existence many commercial lime producing en terprises 'who could easily put their equipmene ttf the production of -suitable lime products for agricultural use. The time has come when these should be studied, exploited and the farmers of this country* - taught tp make use of this essential fertilizing element. It lies at hand waiting only the knowledge1 of its proper application to bedfrme a resource of incalculable value to the country. WESTERN EDITORS Geo. ;H.

The United States has been making an organized effort to improve the health of its school children by a wiser use of milk and milk products. Some idea of what is heing accomplished may be ^gained ������������������from state" ments made in the last report of the California Dairy-Council, one of the most active state organizations engage ed in" this work. * .- * 4" A. few public-schools had milk served to the pupils when the council began its work late in 1919, but the idea prevailed that the children got enough milk at home. The council's milk survey showed that, of 130,968 children, dwelling in'S principal cities, 54,233 received no milk at home; while 42,- 940 received not more than one glass (half-pinto a day. Today, there Js scarcely a jcity of any size in the State of California that- does nqfehave some sort of milk seryice in the public schools. Jn San Francisco, 10,500 half-pinf'bottles are purchased by the children at the school" lunches every day. One Berkeley school had milk service in the fall -of 1919. Today, every school in Berkeley has such service. Last year the people of the state consumed 13,500,000 gallons of milk more than in any previous year. The per capita consumption increased from 17V& gallons.in 1921 to 22 gallons in 1922; w-hile the per capita consumption of butter, increased from 22 to 22% pounds in the same period. The health ol" the rising generation, already shows the effects of the use"* of this better diet. . , to the fat volumes of pre-war days. . It is-the. .first time that one book-lips included the military forces of all Germany. Up to 1914, the peace-time Regular Army of the Fatherland embraced some 600,000 men and officers, besides a host of reserves. During the late hostilities, this strength swelled at one time to more than 8,000,000. Then came the Treaty of Versailles, and at one swoop clipped the German army to 100,000. Ten thousand of this dwarfed array were permitted . to be officers and members c-f the administrative personnel. Gone are the general staff and all the high training institutions so long .the pride-of Prussia. Four small service schools are permitted, and. these for officer candidates only. Gone, too, are whole branches ot" the service: The foot-artillery, aviation and the air-_ craft construction, the railway troops, and the great technical organization whieh attended to the soldier's welfare and looked after the men on leave. Princes and others of the highei nobility._ ihave completely disappeared from the officers* corps, and there are not as "many barons, counts, and so -on as in the days"of yore. A muster roll call would sound strangely different from those of a decade ago. ���������".- insurance, Renovating Historic: Hall v Elevator Not Included in Improvements to Boston Building Historic Faneuil Hall, the "Cradle of Liberty," Boston, will not be defiled by the installations of a modern elevator. ���������The hall is to be renovated in the near future and the city council has appropriated $200,000 to that end.

Coast,Mills Are Busy "���������-"��������� With orders for 40,000,000 feet of lumber on the books .at the first of the month, cast mills are assured of an active cutting season for the next three months.' The market has soft ened a little but millmen* do -n^jjt anticipate any slump in quotations. Foreign business volume. Lumbering In British Columbia Sawmills to the number of 292, with a daily capacity of over 9,500,000 feet, were in operation in British CoLumbia t in 1922. . ln addition there were 10$ shingle plants working with a dsiily capaejty of 15,500,000 shingles; only 8 mills are reported as shut down. There were 2.652 logging operations operating in the province during 1922. { $61,335,169. In 1922 Canada paid for insurance against-fire loss over fifty-tfiree million dollars, according to an abstract statement published by tbe Superin- teadenr'of Insurance. The insurance companies returned to policyholders, nearlyl thirty-six and one-half million dollars, a charge of insurance and uncovered losses,-,of over sixty-one million dollars. On the basis of the 1921 census, this sum represents seven dollars per head lor every man, woman and child in Canada, while the head of a-JCamily of five, the family unit in this country, has to meet a payment of $35 in r*eai money every year to provide- for insurance and fire loss. .:-, "Loss covered by insurance" has become a commonplace in Canadian newspapers, when reporting a fire. If this were changed to read "loss paid by the neighbors" it would be more correct as, upon analysis of the insurance companies' position, it will be readily seen that no company could continue paying out monej^ unless it had .a source of revenue (rem which it could secure its funds. As above shown last year the insurance companies collected more than sixteen and one-half million dollars <over and above what they returned to cover losses, or a loss rate of 6S.98 per cent., the highest for the past five years, the average for this period being 53.52 per cent. Large risks rare responsible for the greater portion of the fire losses. In 1922 there were. 88 fires with losses of over $100,0001 seven of which exceeded a million dollars, while'there were 4*sG of over ten thousand dollars; against 377 the previous year. ��������� This record takes no account of the losses from forest fires, the destruction being entirely of created resources, in other Vgrds, of raw ma terials, or natuijfkl resources, upon whfeh human labor had-been expended to bring them to their finished state. To replace these raw mater ials, says the Natural Resources In telligence Service of the Department of the Interior, our natural resources must be again drawn upon and Canadian workmen must again give their labor. Canada is thus suffering an annual economic loss which constitutes^ a severe drain upon her national wealth, and one which she ctCn ill- afford, with the further result that the competition of demand for replacement materials and labor with that required for new production tends io an appreciation in prices whieh acis as a detriment to builders.
