Is It because you think I won't hit back-- or I can't?" Her voice rose in fury. "Why- don't [you. tell her?

Antonia rumbled on. "I think I'm going to en- Joy the voyage." Hinkle swung around quickly, "What voyage?" "On the Springbok." "Don't be silly." Antonia drew, closer to him- "Don't you remember asking rhc?" "If I ever asked you." Hinkle retorted unpleasantly, "I must I \\e been drunk at the time.

"How?"he leered.-- "A little chat with the Rer "eht General on the subject of a jv ive uprising." Antonia said. "You can't tell him anythin- he don't know." he defied her. "I don't think he knows just .:ow, the native uprising is going to itffect Steve Rand." "if I were you." Hinkle threatened. "I wouldn't start anything 'you can't finish!" Someone was knocking on the door. Hinkle hesitated a momeni. and then motioned Antonia into the adjoining bedroom. Lethargicnlly. she obeyed. When he was sure that she was safely out of the way he crossed the roi.m and opened fhe doof.' Marian was confronting h*m "You might ask me in," she said calmly. Hinkle quickly recovered the composure he had lost at the slKht of her. "Yes. sure. Come in." Smiling. Marian glanced cursorily at. the preparations for departure that were evident in the .room "What did you say was the number of our cabin?" * ' Hinkle was puzzled. "Our cabin?" "Exactly. Or have you recr !le«1 your invitation?" "You're sailing with me?" "It's a broad ocean." she told l.'im "It should be able to bear us h -.h." .

Hinkle turned to Marian plead* inply "Don't pay any attention td this cheap slut." "No matter how cheap I am, I'm not as cheap as you are!" she screamed. "Trying to steal a man's wife and at the same time sending out natives to murder him to keep him from doing his Job!" "She's crazy!" Hinkle snarled. Marian palmed her cheek convulsively and her eyes opened wide in terror. "Murder!" "Yes. murder!" the woman £ried feverishly. 'He arranged it allworking for some syndicate that wants your husband's railroad work stopped. Van den Wyck knows about It--but he's tied his hands, too. And, now that it's all Axed, he's sailing awa/ from the scene of the crime before It's committed." As the last words left the wontan s mouth Marian had started on a run for the door, but she was .« bit too late. Hinkle stood there facing her. "Stand aside," the £lrl said >juietiy. Hinkle glowered at her. "Where do you think you're going?" "To my husband." "Oh. no, you're not," he said nastily. "You're staying right hefe. I've worked too hard on this job to let you sum it up now!" He threw his arms about her roughly. Marian struggled furiously, hut could not free herself from Hinkle's grasp. Suddenly, when the man thought he had her secure she wrenched herself clear and ran toward the window. Hinkle started after her. „ "I.et her po." The man turned to see Antonia standing at the table, leveling his own gun at him. Marian at the sound of the command had stopped her flight toward the window and was now regarding the tableau. Hinkle. the bravado chased out of him at the sight of the pistol, said tremulously, "That's loaded. l>nhy--put it down." "Please, honey." pleaded Antonia, .let her po! You can kill that jliailroad without killing him. If vou were in Rand's spot I'd-want to •-ret to you to warn you." "Just a minute." Marian walked over to the woman and relieved her <>f the. revolver "I can settle my i.wn fight. It's an old family custom" She pointed the gun full at Hinkle "Now. Hinkle. step aside."

TO BE CONTINUED Snow Preserve* Berries Much of the food supply of the bird Inhabitants of the forest arena in the heart of the Ural mountains In northeastern Europe consist? of berries of tha previous season's crop. The snow comes so quickly after the berries have ripened in the short summer season that much of the fruit is covered with snow, either on the bushes or where It has fallen on the ground, before It can be harvested or has time to decay. The snow serves as a preservative and when It begins to melt away In the early spring the berries are ju.st as flt for consumption by the birds as when they were first covered. Culture Pearl* Culture pearls are simply genuine pearls whose growth and formation in the oyster has been artificially induced. The pfincipal difficulty about producing such pearls is that they frequently have a flat surface on one side where the pearl has been attached to the shell. However, a method has been devised whereby the pearl grows Into the mantle of the oyster without touching the shell, and pearls of this type resemble natural pearls so exactly that the difference cannot be discovered except by cutting the pearl Open. Culture pearls of this high type can be used in Jewelry and strung for neck laces Just as natural pearls can be. Work which the extension service of the- University' of Illinois ('ollege of Ajrriciiiitire: has .been iioing for years In the interests of balanced, stabilized fanning aftd a mure satisfylnx fa nil home life has been broad ehed Into new. and more extensive fields In an etTori to m^et the-recov t»r> and adjustment needs of the one million ^artn people in Illinois. ") , I Miring the past year, for Instance. 'Hie extension service not only has shaped its regular progratn to the •new needs of farmers and honietnak ers jbiil also nas assisted In carrying our the?emergency programs of the Agricultural Adjust.merit Administra f ion. * •• - •. From the beginning* the goAls of the extension service have. Included', such " fundariit'ntalij as the conservation of Istnd resources of Illinois as a conrlniilng , source of wealth to the state, the reduction of production and marketing costs, improvement In the quality of products, adjusting produvlion to effective demand expanding the market outlet for farm products and advancing the welfare of the farm home and the rural community.. . ' ••• * Progress Accelerated. Emergency agricultural measures made necessary by the economic crisis have not changed or displaced these goaisi They have only accelerated the rate of progress toward these ob jectives. Illinois farmers, for In stance, have been adjusting their crop-' ping systems for years as shown by. the faci that the acreage of grains, such as corn and wheat, has been djp creasing and ^he acreage of legumes has been steadily Increasing. Many producers, however, have been too hard pressed for tax and Interest money to adjust their acreages as extensively as they would have liked to. Now the AAA has come forward with an offer of substantial financial backing to Illinois farmers who will cut their wheat acreage 15 per cent and their corn acreage 20 per cent and reduce their production of hogs for market 25 per cent. * "Between 1,860.000 and 3,715,000 acres of Illinois land Will be released for legumes and other replacement crops If Illinois farmers co-operate to the limit In the wheat and the corn-hog programs of the Agricultural Adjustment Administration. If put Into legumes, this acreag would go far toward bringing to reality the extension service's long-continued teaching that one acre out of every four should be in legumes. This Is but one example of how the emergency measures of the AAA are bringing ^joser the goals toward which the extension service ha# been working for years. Worked Ahead of AAA. Even before the Agricultural Adjustment Act became a factor in Illinois agriculture, however, the agrl cultural extension service of the University of Illinois was revising Its pro gram to put added emphasis upon ad justment and recovery This movement started as far back as 1928 when Dean Herbert W. Mumford and his co-workers held the first "Agricultural Adjustment Conferences" out over the state. This government was continued with the 1933 arrangement of the extension service program. With farmers suffering from weak markets, with prices for farm products touching new low points and with the failure of farm costs to decline In proportion to farm prices, the extension service started the 1938 year with added responsibilities to farmers and homemakers Not only was the welfare of the farm family at stake, but what was of immediate public concern was the fact that the national well-being was In jeopardy There no longer was any widespread doubt that national economic welfare largely depends upon the buying power of the individual farmer. With this as a background, the pro^ gram as carried out during the past year by the extension service has stressed: (1) markets and marketing; (S) production to meet commercial needs; (3) the farm home as a market for farm products, and (4) efficient low-cost administration of the farm and home and the development of commuQlty interest. By means of definite projects carried out through county farm advisers, the extension service has offered reg> ular and systematic help on these problems to the million farm people of the state. Early Work In Dairying. Aided by the extension service, for ' instance, the most progressive dairymen ot the state have not waited for an emergency relief project to help them bolster their Incomes These dairymen, who are members ot dalrv nerd Improvement associations organized by the extension service, have proceeded with a cow culling plan at a rate which If followed by all dairymen would mean the disposal of 222,- 200 ot the poorer cows in the storr within a vear. This not only would be a long steptoward reducing costs and Increasing net returns In dairying, but also would wipe out part of the present troublesome surpluses In this respect the 'ow culling plan which Illinois dairymen have practiced during the vear is similar to recent proposals- to the federal administration for adjustments In ^he dairy industry^ In addition to carrying on its regular program, the extension service has as slsted with the preliminary education al and organization work In the wheat adjustment campaign and In the cornhog adjustment program, as well as In other emergency projects.
