CHAPTER V
Talk died down again, except
for undertones among the men.
Topics that would include Miss
Eliot were few. They could not
ask her where she cane from nor
;what she was doing ` in this raw
town, nor how long she expected
to stay. For the first article in
the unwritten book of manners of
the old West was that a stranger
mist not be. -asked personal ques-
tions. Too many residents had
come out one jump ahead of the
law.
After supper Anne asked Mrs.
Russell where the office of the
"Powder Born Sentinel" was.
"I'd like to walk down there this
evening," she added.
"I'll get some one to show you
where it is," the landlady said,
and she stepped out to the porch.
Her eye fell on Rafe Jelks.
"Do you think you can take a
young lady down to the office of
the 'Sentinel' and bring her back
safely?" she asked.
His boaboalit. "O11 lady, try
me."_
On the way to the office Anne
gathered information.. This was
a cattle country, though there
was a good deal of mining in the
hills. The big outfit, she learned,
was the Hat 1', owned by Russ
Moseley, though there were a good
many other much smaller ranches
but of fair size. It was a fine
country for those Who liked the
high plains.
"What is this land-grant feud
I hear about?" Anne asked.
Silcott Took Up The Fight
"It's a long story which goes
back to the old Spanish clays when
the king of Spain gave great
grants of lands, through itis gov-
ernor, to grandees who were sup-
posed to have served the country •
in war. A grant covering a big
part of this district was given to
23on Jose Gandara, .who by what
I hear was quite a guy. Ile had
money enough to bursa wet mule,
and be fed at his different ranch-
eros hundreds of vaqueros and
servants every day. Seems Gan,
dare didn't put much stock in this
little gift of a million acres more
or less. Those were free and easy
days, and a man didn't fool much
with recording his deeds and that
sort of thing, He just stuck 'em
in a bolo and forgot about it.`The
stole it that Ganclara slept en his
rights. •
"A fter Mexicohad freed itself
from Spain, Governor .Armijo
carted a big chunk of half a mih
lion acres or so out of this grant

'and gave it to another bird named
Antonio Aguilar, who peddled, bits
of it to cattlemen coming into the
country, That 'started a rookus,
for a smooth smiling crook named
Russ Mosely had already hopped
down to Mexico City and bought
out the Gandara heirs for about
a dollar and a quarter."
"I read bits of . this in stray
copies of the 'Sentinel' that came
to me," Anne said. "It seems the
'Sentinel' 'was on the side of -the
Armijo grantees,"
"Was and is," Jelks answered.
Red Silcott took up the fight
where Rogers dropped it when he
was killed."
The girl stopped in her tracks
and stared at Ilirn, dismay in her
face. "Killed?" she repeated:
"Yes, miss," ' he said gently.
"Shot down from ambush as he
was Ieaving the office one night."
"I didn't know that," she said
in a lew voice. "Mr. Silcott wrote
that he had died and he would
carry an till I let ltiln know what
S wanted to do,"
"They Meant To Kill Him
Looking into her agitated face,
Rafe Jerks knew new who this
mysterious stranger was. She was
the niece who had inherited .the
'Sentinel' from her uncle.
The girl continued to look at
him, the color drained from her
cheeks. "You called him Red 511-
cott, Was it Mr. Silcott they ;were
shooting at this 'afternoon?"
"yea"
"They mean to kill him too
then?"
"That's . the notion they have
tucked away in their nuts." Jenks
smiled, grimly, "They haven't
got 'away with it yet."
"Who are these murderers?"
"The Hat T ranch."
"Isn't there any law in this
country?"
"Heaps of it, most of it owned
by Russ Mosely, the grand Mogul
at the Hat T."
"But 1 won't have it," she said
quickly. "I won't be responsible
for a man in my employ getting
killed. He'I] have to go away—
at once."
"Tell that to Red Silcott," be
said dryly.

tion
Thirteen solutions for preserv-
ing cut flowers, tested on 10 dif-
ferent plants in the Texas Tech-
nological- College greenhouse, in.
dicate that- ordinary tap water
preserves their life longer; With
one exception.
A compound used' by florists is
that exception and, it, according
to 0. I3. Howell, horticulture pro-
fessor, preserves fall cosmos and
petunias two weeks longer than
.does plain water.
Asters, golden rod, chrysanthe.
mums, zinnias, scabiosa, candy -
tuft, feverfew and daisies were
also tested in the' florists' solu-
tion and in salt, sugar, tricalium

bon black, seared steps fn tap
water, aspirin, nutrient solution
and tap water.
SEAR STEMS 'OF' SOME
``While aspirin, sugar and min-
ute quantities of Balt were fairly
good; they did not keep flowers `
as long as did plain water," said
Howell, who supervised the ex-
periment. "Acetic acid was the
poorest, causing cut flowers to
wither immediately."
Other experiments showed that
those plants which have milky
juices or woody stems keep longer
if the stems have been seared over
an open flame before placing in
tap water. This was time of poin-
settias, poppies, Sikes, petunias
and many flowering shrubs, How-

Canadian Troops
Leave Iceland •
Other Imperials Have Taken
Over Garrison Duties
The Defence Department said
early in May that Canada's gar-
rison duties in Iceland ended re-
cently when the Cameron High-
landers of Ottawa were relieved
by otheg Imperial troops.
The department said relief of
the Canadian forces had been
carried out gradually, and that
the Camerons were the last Do-
minion unit to' leave Iceland for
the United Kingdom.
Brig. L. F. Page now has a
command in the United Iingdonl,
the battalions under him having
been absorbed in other forma-
tions.
The Canadian Protective Force
left for Iceland in June last year,
after the capitulation of France,
to join a British force which was
established there soon after the
Germans invaded Denmark.
When the Canadians left Ice-
land, the General Officer Com-
manding in Iceland sent the Bri-
tish War Office the following
wire: '
"On departure of the Cameron
Highlanders, of Ottawa, the Iasi
of Brigadier Page's gallant Can-
adian brigade to leave Iceland, I
wish to inform you of perfect co-
operation and friendship which
always existed here between Can-
adian and other British farces.
"The Iatter always Feel it an
honor to have the •Canadians
alongside • them, and eagerly look
forward to renewing happy etipee-
lances, and wish thein always the
best of good lack."
