"Where is he now?" Rosy cut in.
"Gone," Hammond said. "He took
the morning train out. He come in
here around seven o'clock, about
ten minutes before the train went,
and made me an offer for the mine.
Said he just come on a hunch."
Rosy broke in. "What did he look
like?"
Hammond thought a moment be-
fore replying. "Short, dark. Got a
thin face and dark eyes. Wears dark
clothes, city clothes- Got a funny
habit of lookin' at your tie or your
collar. Don't weigh more'n a hun-
dred an' thirty."
Rosy rammed his bands in his
pockets• and paced . the floor, smok-
ing ful'ionsly. Suddenly, he turned
on Hammond and Dave.
"And he'll be back," Rosy said de-
cisively, "if I got this figgered out
right. While he thinks you and Dave
are fighting mad and when every-
thing looks hopeless. He'll be back
and 'he'll be back with cash!"
Hammond looked around on a
side table, then waked Dorsey:
"Get my pipe, will you, honey?"
Dorsey went to the closet and open-
ed the door. Hammond's clothes were
inside and Dorsey fumbled around in
his coat pocket. Rosy idly noted that
Hammond wore half -boots, the tracks
of which could not possibly jibe with
the track he had seen up by the lake.
And Hammond was smoking a ,pipe
too, not tailor-made cigarettes.
"And that ain't all." Rqsy said, still
pacing the floor. "How could Crowell
have been around these parts and
kept hidden long enongrh to drill them
holes for the dynamite? There was
lots of them, and in; hard rock."
"He couldn't," Hammond said.
Rosy looked at him` a bong time.
"That means that Crowell ain't
done the dynamitin' at all. It was
done by some one he hired, some un-
derstrappers that could travel around
in this country and not be noticed
much."
Rosy paused in his pacing and lean-
ed on the bed.

Farmers are cautioned to exercise
greater care in • the marketing of
lambs at this season of the year.
Prices for good early lambs have
been very satisfactory until about
August 1st, when ma'n'y farmers, no
doubt, tempted by prevailing prices
during the last week in July, began
to market lambs that should have
been held on pastures for at least a
month, and in many cases two
months. An oversupply of poor
lambs resulted in a serious drop on
all lamb Markets, and' while the sit-
uation has partly corrected itself, the
market is still sensitive to weakness
if producers continue to market unde-
sirable lambs.
As a rule Iambs from the more
common domestic breeds of sheep do
not finish for market at farm weights
under 90 pounds to 100 pounds (80 to
90 pounds at the market). Before
selling lambs it is always wise to use
h scales. This is particularly im-
to
portant at the present time so that
the sale of underweight lambs may
be avoided.
Good early lambs are in demand at
all stockyard centres, packing plants
and city markets. Lamb meat is an
especial favourite in the home, at
tourist centres, and in hotels and° rest-
aurants. When it is said that Iamb
is a popular meat, this means good
to choice lamb from well. finished car-
casses. Light, unfinished lambs do
not produce the kind of meat that is
relished by tourists or by the Cana
dian people. Poor lambs are not good
sellers and are unsatisfactory to 'all -
sections of the trade, including the
consumer. This year pastures are ex-
cellent all over Canada and there is
no farm animal that puts on cheaper

The date at which birds will come
into production in the fail will depend
largely on the date of hatch, rate of
maturity for. bhat particular strain of
birds and on the system of feeding
practised during brooding and rearing.
In order to have the birds come into
laying at a definite time in the fall,
these factors must be given consid-
eration. It has been the experience
with Barred Plymouth) Rocks, at the
Dominion Experimental Station, Kent-
vilte, N. S., states R. F. Cheney, Head
Poultryman, that birds coming into
laying between six and seven months
of age give the best satisfaction from
the standpoint of production, egg size
and body weight. Birds coming into
laying in less than six months are
inclined to be small birds, laying
small eggs while birds requiring more
than seven months are not as heavy
producers though they show an in-
crease in'egg size. It is consequent-
ly not good policy to rush birds into
production at four and one-half to
five months of age by putting them
`onto laying mash at this age, but ra-
ther to continuer feeed'ing a growing
mash along with plenty of scratch
As with any other business, how-
ever, some fundamental data must be
secured' If development is to be made
upon the proper basis'. For example.
What is the cost of raising a colt?
Can economical returns be secured ev-
ert if prices remain as they are? These
problems ' are among those that are
receiving consideration at till experi-
mental farms where horse breeding is
receiiring attention. At the Dominion
Experimental Farm at Nappan, N. S..
three colts were foaled in. 1935 and
three in 1936.„ Data have been secur-
ed on the feed cost of rearing, these
colts from birth to one year of age,
and from one to two years of age for
the 1935 trio. She food consumption
of th'e deme is charged up from foal-
ing to weaning as well as the feed
c'onsum'ed by the colt. The. average
feed cost for a cont to ane year was
$58.82. The three 1935 colts cost an
average of $129.49 for feed alone at
two years of age.

between foaling and weaning (a per-
iod of six to seven months) the va-
lue of this work Itt eight cents per
hour can be credited against the feed
fed to the colt. For example, if a
mare worked 500 hours while nursing
her colt, a credit of $40.00 would re-
duce the actual feed cost to less than
$20.00 at one year of age. The labor
and investment charges are addition-
al to the above and will average
about 40 per cent. of the total. There-
fore, the actual cost of a colt at two
years of age will be approximately
$215.00 if the dam is. idle during the
nursing period.
'Considering the cost of raising a
colt, it would' appear to be poor econ-
omy to use anything but the best stal-
lions available. A few extra dollars
for service fees may be easily offset
by the extra value of a good draft
eolt of the proper type when com-
pared with one of poor conformation.
There is practically no difference in
the cost sof rearing colts of either
class.
