Both men are returning from prison where they have served sentences for unjust convictions. On .the train, Whloh is parrying a large aim of money, Rosy's quick action and straight shooting foils a hold-up while Dave saves the life of Martin Quinn, a gambler, who is being threatened 'by a desperado. Stop- ping at Single Shot, the sheriff tells Dave he is not wanted.

Sud- denly a shot from the darkness topples Dave from his horse. Rosy fires and' kills the unknown assailant and they rush to the ranch to treat Dave's severe scalp wound., Next morning, at break- fast, Dave and Rosy discover that Mary is now • cooking for the ' ranch hands -a bad sign. After discussing financial matters with Mary Dave and Rosy saddle hors- es and leave for Single Shot to see the town banker, Mr,`. Pear- son. Mortgage is renewed and Dave decides to-- get enough money to pay off mortgage by raising alfalfa and selling it. FolIowiitg night the lake is, blown up and Dave inwardly accuses Hammond. The latter blames Dave. A chance meeting of the two gives them an opportunity to -clear away this false impression. The hunt now. turns to Crowell, the mysterious man of means and ambitions. Rosy rushes to Winter's home to tell Mary' of his suspicions about her ,husband and asks her help to prove his findings. Laredo ev- olves a scheme to arrest Crowell as a murder,suspect in order hold him for questioning. By a clever ruse, Dave escapes .1i.is cap tors and then- frees Dorsey who was held prisoner for ransom. "You're hit," she your -e" s"I forgot," Dave answered. The last shot . the outlaw had seared Lis arm„ •.rsey bandaged it -expert- ly. "How did you get here?" he asked.• "I heard 'em talk about a girl and I thought it was Mary." "I went home a little after 'dark. I put Pancho in the stable and went in the house. In the kitchen a man grabbed me and told me not to make.a noise. There were two of them and one 'asked the other if they'd left the nota. Then they put a sack over my head and tied me on my horse and we rode all night, it seemed. They treated me all right." She looked at Dave, /her eyes puzzled. "What's this all about?" "I dunno," Dave answered. "I was forced to sign over my half of mar ranch to Crowell." "Crowell? The man you and dad are looking for? The one behind the dynamiting?". "Yeah," Dave needed. "I thought he was behind. it but there's somea one else: Sone one they all call boss. 13e's payin' Crowell far gettin' the ranch an' mine: Sayres and his gang for the dynamitin'-" A wave of anger swept over Dave. "I'm go - in' to get out of here an' track him down like--" "Yes, that's your way, isn't it?" Dave swung around to face her. "Why, what else should I do? What would any man-" ;he caught himiself. "Here's the horses," he said quietly. It was close to dusk when Dave and Dorsey neared• the pass. Dave .had been scanning the rocky ridge ahead of them that barred -their way to the valley. "It's a prison," he pronounced. "What will we do," Dorsey asked. ed. "Axe take plenty to .rawhide me into goin' for my gun." His eyes narrowed and he looked off to the far'horizon. "But that's not the way the world gives a man what belongs' to him, I reckon. It's fight or die. I died for eight years. I'm goin' to live now for a little while." _ Dorsey caught her breath. "Then it Is true," she said slowly, "you are -Hard. You're cruel and ruthless. You're a murderer!" Dave flinched as if struck with a whip. "Dorsey," his voice was pleading, "can't you see?" "Please go," she said quietly. Dave's lips were a grim line as he turned on his heel and strode off in- to the gathering dusk. Dave paused to remove his boots. In the stillness, they seemed to make the noise of an army on the march. Paused, he suddenly jerked erect and listened. Behind him, farther down the ridge he could hear the crunching of bootsoles on, rock. "Some ranny saw me and is follow - in'," he thought 'savagely. He raised his head above the edge of the rock and waited. Slowly, the man was making his way forward against the skyline. Dave saw 'him raise up and listen. Dave drew a bead on him, 'then let his Colt slack. A shot would alarm the guard for sure and give him away. The man was close now. He could hear the quiet breathing of the man as he paused by the rock, apparently listening. Strangely, then, the man seated himself on the rock behind which Dave was hidden. With noiseless effort, Dave hoisted himself out of the crevice, got a toe- hold on the rock and lunged at the sitting figure. The force of bis spring took them both sprawling on the ground. Dave's hand was on the stranger's throat, but 'the force of the man's great strength was not easy to calm. Suddenly, the man ceased strug- gling and Dave eased off his hands. Then: "Dave Turner, jug -headed, murderin' fool!" "Rosy! My God -I thought you'd be dead." "I near am," Rosy muttered. "How'd you know it was me?" Dave asked. ` "When you lowered your head, I hit that place where the bushwhacker slammed you, but you was hanging on to me like a burr. 1 aimed to play dead so's you'd take your hand off my throat." "Did the guard see you?" "I. don't think so." "And be's on this rock?" Rosy said he was. They sat a moment listening to see if they had alarmed the guard, but the night was soundless. "Dorsey Hammond?" Rosy asked incredulously. "Why -I never heard about it. Are you sure?" he checked himself. "Let's get on. We got some work ahead of us. Near as I can make out, this here rock he's on Is cup shaped, and a little higher than the rest of the hill." They decided that Dave was to go dowp the slope, circle around, hide ,himself and 'open fire. Rosy was to approach the, rampart from the ridge. "Then let's go." Rosy said, Dave disappeared down the side of the scarp and Rosy continued ahead. Worming his way forward for nearly twenty minutes, pausing to listen oc- casionally, he' finally achieved a round knob of rock which he bad not- ed from below as being close to the rampart. He could smell cigarette smoke, hear the slight movement of the man on top iu the cup. A veering of the wind carried the smell of cedar smoke to himand he guessed the man had built a small fire. He smiled. "Fool," he thought. "If he looks out into the night from that fire be couldn't see a cavalry troop." A shot from below electrifled ,him and he knew Dave was cached cosily behind a rock, shooting at random. Rosy heard the loud hiss of water on coals as the guard extinguished his fire. The answering shot was loud and close. .Rosy hoisted himself up. With a The force of his spring took them both sprawling on the ground. "A little more brtchenin'." "Do you have to?" "We've get to get by the guard at the pass," Dave said, "and he'll shoot." They pulled in at a 8-4ai1-dz`a and dismounted. Dave took the car from the ,saddle -hoot. Dorsey came close to him and laid a hand on his sleeve. 6 1 - "Isn't thet~e any other way besides blood?" she asked (Wetly. He shook his head somberly.

The guard whipped alt•ound, raised his rifle, and a lance of orange licked out. Rosy fanned the gun desperate- ly, waiting for a bullet to pick bim and send him careening down among the rocks. He saw the limp body of the guard, inch down the wall until it, rested in the smoking fire. Rosypulled himself ever the rim and hullooded loudly-''' Dave anawet'ed him dimly from below. Then he tim- ed-the us'uedl-the body over, struck a match and saw the man was dead, three bullets. in his cbost. He loaded' this Colt thoughtfull'y, Ishrugged and let himself down the slope. Dave was waiting" with Dorsey at the pass when he reached it. It'took Laredo tbree minutes to get a saddled. horse from the livery stable after he had left the 'sheriff's' office. He rode slowly north up the valley, leading the horse. When ..he .was out of sight of the town,, Isle left the road and started up the mountains to the east, . Where the mountains broke for the railroad tracks in a deep pass hearralleled the tracks racks for three miles or so. When he heard the freight train come slogging up the grade he watch- ed it quietly. As the last three cars disappeared, Laredo saw .a man swing off the caboose. Then the man turned and survey- ed the country around shim. Laredo stood up and waved an arm and the man walked over to him. The new- comer .was dressed in laced boots, clean but faded breeches' and an open necked khaki shirt. He was a mid- dle-aged man, broad of face and quiet of eye. He smoked a pipe set com- fortably in a wide ,mouth. He greeted Laredo quietly, a glint of amusement in his deepest eyes. "Hullo, cowboy." "Howdy, C.huck." They mounted and started back over the same trail Laredo had come. Laredo's' companion studied. him. Fin- ally, he spoke. "When are you goin' to tell me what this is all about, Laredo? Why all the secrecy?" "It's a long story, Chuck. A lot of it I don't •Itnow, and I'm dependin' on, you to tell me," "What about?" "1 dunno," Laredo persisted'. "Thet'a what I got you up here foil All we. got to do now is to ride fora while and thena yotr can tell me." "Ride how tar? I should catch the night train out." And after that Laredo did not talk. When they bad passed the lake on the way to the D Bar T, Laredo left the trail that angled down to the ranch and picked his own. The two horsemen skirted the base of Old Cartridge which jutted down to the lake ,and headed north toward the mountains. As dusk settled into dark, Chuck gave up trying to keep the directions and let his horse have its head. With the precision of years of practice, Laredo went deeper and deeper into the canyons. They had ridden an hour in this when Laredo drew up. He dismounted. and Chuck heard him go off a short distance. When he returned, something clanged at his side. "Here's a lantern," he said. "Light up and come •with me." Chuck did as he ;was bid and in the flickering circle of light cast by the lantern he followed Laredo. The can- yon 'narrowed until its width could be spanned by stretching the arms, and a cool dank smell of wet rock sur- rounded them. Suddenly they step- ped out of the bottleneck on to the sparse grass of a little amphitheater. "Here's the place," Laredo said. He squatted' on his heels by the lantern and rolled a cigarette carefully. , "For a month, off and on, I ben watching a hombre dig here. What I want to know is, what is it he dug?" • He picked up the lantern and mo,' ed over toward one of the walls. A tight -mouthed tunnel appeared before. them and Laredo motioned Chuck in- side. Chuck set his lamp on the floor nt the end with a smothered oath. A single, short -handled pickaxce lay on the floor. "Have you been lookin' at;the walls here?" he asked Laredo slowly, unbe- lievingly. Laredo nodded. Chuck pointed. "Hell, he don't need a pick. You can pick those nuggets out with a pocket- knife." "So it's gold?" Laredo asked. "We've passed fifty thousand dol- lar's worth in the last twenty-five steps," Chuck said slowly. "Man! Somebody's so rich they can use sol- id gold bits for every ,horse in their stable. Who owns it?" Laredo shook his head and spat precisely. "Not, me. Not the jasper that's beenminin' it either," "Fou mean somebody that doesn't own it has done this work?" Laredo nodded. "Ile figgered it would be his some day, so it .wasn't wasted." (Continued Next Week) CURRENT CROP REPORT Halton County reports livestock in excellent condition though many far- mers .g` tate that pasture conditions are btllow normal. There will be con- siderable red clover seed for sale in the Halton area. Huron County re- ports new seeding a promising stand of both clovers and grasses. Both McIntosh and Spys are producing an above average yield in Huron with excellent size and color. Roots are an exceptionally good crop in Perth. A carload of Southdownrams was shipped from Brant County to the United States. Haldimand farmers have completed sowing of fall wheat and barvesting of the corn crop, Lam'bton reports the land dry and hard for plowing, but fall work is be- ing rapidly completed.

Poised on the automotive ways ready for immediate launching are Dodge, Chevrolet, Cadi- llac and LaSalle. By the time the New York show opens its doors, all the new models will' have been on exhibition with the possible exception of Ford, who likes to have a show of his own after the other models are out. Sharply in evidence at automotive laboratories is the five -word phrase:. "Hupmobile has done it again," fol- lowing the Hupp Motor Car Corpora- tion's announcement that it would in - vide the low -(price car market with a rew'six and four designed along the revolutionary lines of the low -slung, ground -gripping Cord. Accustomed to expect periodic spurts of ultra -modernism from the laboratories of the Hupp Corporation, which has -done much to set: the stage for present-day streamlines, engineers heeame even more expectant when the Hupp group enlisted the services of Norman de Vaux as -general man- ager, in charge of production. Through his foresight, Hupp has purchased the dies of the Cord in order that the de- sign of the new models would carry a tone of authenticity rather than that of a copy whiob seldom . strikes the public as well as an original. So, when engineers say, "Hupp has done it again," they mean that the Hupmobile of 1939 may set the stage for a new type of low-cost, small lin- ing and popular appeal from the standpoint of economy and smart styling. Hnpnrehile engineers thought long and hard before introducing a four - cylinder car to a market that has not been friendly to new makes in the last ten y@ars. But a Cord body on a four -cylinder car chassis thrusts a type of design on the' market that im- presses crgineers with sales potential- ities in the low -price levels. Rakish is the word applied to the new Hu, -pp six and four. A 101 -horse- power engine propelling a 2900 pound car spells a surprisingly rapid get- away for "the 'new six. With a top only five feet above the ground the car is Faid to have the lowest center of gravity on the American market.

A knowledge of how they respond is necessary if the most profitable re- turns are to be obtained from the manure and from the crops in the ro- tation as a whole. Where intertilled crops are grown, they will perhaps show the most pro- fitable response, but where rotations consist of grain and hay the answer to the question is not so obvious. With rotations on heavy clay soils such as are found in Northelzn On- tario, the results of an experiment at the Dominion Experiment Station at Kapuskasing, Ontario, are very in- structive. Two similar four-year rotations have been running alongside each other for thirteen years. Both con- sist of oats, barley and two years of mixed hay, One .has not received ally manure or other fertilizer, while the other has been given rin applica- tion of eight tons of manure to the barley and another of eight tons on the aftermath of the first year's hay for the second year of ' hay. From the information gathered on these ro- tations during thirteen years, it is possible to compare khe effect 6f trianure on barley and hay, and the residual effect on oats and hay. A study of the data shows that bar- ley increased 65 per cent, and hay 126 per cent. in response to direct applications of manure, while oats in- creased 60 per cent. and hay 101 per cent` from residual. effect. that is resi- dual fertility the year following appli- cations. Those comparisons show very clear ly that the bap crops responded in a greater degree to manure than did. the grain crops, and indicate that the most profltable place for the manure will be on the bay drop. Another experiment that has been running for a shorter time seems to indicate that commercial fertilizers will give as good results on grain as on hay. lit would appear then that the most- eatisfa.ctory results will he obtained from applying the manure on the hay crop, and the Commercial fe11tilizere on the grain crops. 70 MOS ap holt ' i.: see,,m*,ufcker thal� a of `car. 1'11/- • a •019 ip the gas censufl ptian Vaa 18 •to• 20 miles ell a 80119. , The fundamental idea .ofha:Se less .transmissi in that df tra mitting power with the ,aid qi`, a tip bine driven by 'Mid carugsing Out. of s:. centrifugal pump ... is not new.

Another in- teresting feature of the report is that... for the first time in the history of the province the number of Percher - on stallions of€ered for public service exceeds Clydesdales. Percheron stal- lions total 640 and Clydes 601. Middlesex County shows, the : =.t- est .number of stallions enrolled wit an even 100 divided as follows: 48 Percherons, 34-Clydes, 4 Belgians, 8 Standard, 6 Thoroughbreds and o Arab, Dr. W. J. Stevenson, of Lon- don, owns the only Arab stallion in Ontario, the report discloses. Huron County is second in numbers with 72, Bruce is third with 66, followed by Perth and Grey Counties with 62 each. The gradual upswing in horse breeding in Ontario can be seen by the increase in the number of stal- lions enrolled. In 1932 the enrolment total was 1,013 with 1,166 in 1933; 1,1°9 in 1934; 1,300 in 1935; 1,402 in 1926; 1,506 in 1937, and 1,583 this year. The report also states that regular fall inspection is free to all stallion owners. The province has been divid- ed into four sections and stallion owners are requested to make appli- cation at once to their local Agricul- tural Representatives who are ar- ranging routes in their counties. Reg- ular inspection is also provided at Ottawa, the Royal and Guelph Winter Fairs. Various breeds are listed as fol- lows: Percheron, 640; Clydesdale, 601; Belgian, 142; Standard, 106; Hackney, 34; Thoroughbreds, 27; Frepch Canadian, 19; German Coach, 6; Suffolk, 4; French Coach, 2; Sad- dle, 1, and Arab, 1. It is interesting to note that 352 of the stallions enrolled carry premium certificates whereby they qualify for an annual grant from both Provincial and Federal Departments of Agricul- ture, the amount of which will vary according to tbe number of in foal mares left by the service of the stal- lion, and according to the form of premium certificate the stallion car- ries. Many a Leaky Shingle Roof Can be Mended by Renailing There is scarcely a farm in West- ern Ontario but has at least one building roofed with cedar shingles and if laid properly they have been found to giv.e long, and satisfactory service. Unfortunately, there a r e numerous buildings that were cover- ed with a good quality cedar ebingle but with which an inferior brand of shingle nail was used. Consequently, at the present time, the shingles are found to be still good, but many of the nails have rusted through. As a result, the contents of the buildings are not safeguarded from the ele- ments as the shingles are continually blowing off whenever there is a high wind. Ilowever, these roofs can be made to give many more years service and the owners saved the expense of new ones. To remedy this condition, the roof must be renailed. Round nails are referable as they , do not split the shingles as readily as cut. nails. It is better if they are galvanized as the leads are exposed to the 'weather. Every second row of shingles on the roof 15 renailed, two nails being used for the larger shingles and one for the smaller ones. The nails are driv- en abont one-half •inch or an inch from the edges of the shingles and about half way in the exposed part. Any shingles that have blown off the roof can be replaced' when the nailing is being done. Care should be taken not to drive the heads of the nails into tbe shingles as they will rot more readily if a cavity is made. A considerable number of farmers have tried this plan and the results have been satisfactory. The roofs do not leak and it will be a number of years before the shingles begin to de - ay around the snail .holies. This is especially true if the nails are gal- vanized. Some carpenters maintain £hat, in some cases; the non -galvanized shin- gle nails rusted rapidly owing to the fact that the shingles contained ° a certain amount of salt. This is said to be caused by the cedar logs being floated through salt water,, from the forests of British Ca ntn$itt, to the mills.
