I.lnze, In Initli, was embarrassed by
the size of his holdings, but he shook
Ms head. "No, I'm too old to go ram
pngln' nftor nevr gods. I ain't got the
Imagination to raise anything moro
complicated than a mortgage; but If
2 whs younger, I'd organlzo myself up
and do nway with that Ed Austin. I'd

then I'd marry them pecan groves, nnd
blooded herds, and drug-store orchards.

an
"Father 1" I'alomn was deeply
shocked.
Complete Isolation, of course, Alalro
had found to bo Impossible, even
though her ranch lay far from the trav
eled roads and her Mexican guards
woro not encouraging to visitors. Bust
Bess Inevitably brought her into con
tact with a considerable number of
people, nnd of theso tho ono she saw
most frequently was Judgo Ellsworth
of Brownsville, her attorney.
It was perhaps a week after Ed had
toft for San Antonio that Alalrc felt
tho need of Ellsworth's counsel, nnd
aont for him. Ellsworth was n kindly
man of flfty-flvc, with a forceful chin
and a drooping, heavy-lidded eye that
could either blazo or twinkle. Judgo
Ellsworth knew moro than any four
men In that part of Texas; Information
bad a way of seeking hi in out. lie was
a good lawyer, too, and yet his knowl
edge of human nature he considered
far more Important than Inw. Ills
mind was like a full granary, nnd every
grain lay where ho could put his hand
upon It.
IIo motored out from Brownsville,
and nfter ridding himself of dust, In
sisted upon spending tho Interval be
fore dinner In an Inspection of Alalrc's
latest ranch improvements. Not until
dinner wns over did ho inquire tho rea
son for his summons.
"It's about La Ferln. General Lon
gorlo has confiscated my stock," Alalre
told him. "I wns ufrnld of this very
thing, and so I was preparing to bring
tho stock over. Still I never thought
they'd actually contlscnto it."
( 'Hasn't Ed dono enough to provoko
conilscatlon?" asked tho Judge. "I
linvo it pretty straight that he's giv
ing money to the rebel Junta aud lend
ing every assistance ho can to their
sausc."
1 didn't know he'.d actually dono
anything. IIow mad!"
"Yes for a man with Interests In
federal territory. But Ed nlwnys does
tho wrong thing, you know."
I, "Then I presume this confiscation Is
ilh the nature of n reprisal. But the
ntock Is mine, not Ed's. I want your
tielp In taking up the matter with
flVashlngton."
Ellsworth was pessimistic. "It
won't do any good, my dear," he said.
'"You won't ho paid for your cattle."
"Then I shall go to Ln Ferla."
"No I" Tho Judge shook his head
decidedly.
"I've been there n hundred times.
Tho federals have been moro than
courteous."
"Longorlo has a bad reputation. I
ptrongly nilvlse against your going.
You d better send Homo mnn."
"Whom can I send?" asked Alalre.
FYou know my situation."
' Tho Judge considered a moment be
fore replying., "I enn't go, for I'm
busy In court. You could probnbly
accomplish more than anybody else, If
Longorlo will listen to renson, nnd,
ttftcr nil, you nro n person of such im
portance that I dare say you'd bo safe.
But It will be n hard trip, and you
won't know whether you nre In rebel
or in federal territory."
"Well, people here arc asking wheth
er Texas Is In the United States or
Mexico," Alalre said, lightly. "Some
times I hardly know." After a mo
ment she continued: "Slnco you know
everything and everybody, I wonder If
you over met n Duvld Law?"
Ellsworth nodded.
"Tell mo something nbout him."
"He asked me the sumo thing about
you. Well, I haven't seen much of
Dave since he grew up, he's such n
roamcr."
"He snld his parents were murdered
by the Guadulupes."
"Yes. It happened a good many
years ugo, and certulnly they both met
n violent end. I was Instrumental In
waving what property Frank Law left,
but It didn't last Dave very long. He's
right careless in money matters. Dave's
a tlno fellow in somo ways most wnys,
I believe, but " Tho Judgo lost him
self In frowulng meditation.
"I hnve never known you to damn n
friend or a cliaat with such faint
praise," said Alalre.
"Oh, 1 don't mean It that way. I'm
almost liko one of Dave's kin, and I've
been keenly interested in watching his

ALAIRE AUSTIN MEETS GEN. LUIS L0NG0RI0 OF THE
MEXICAN FEDERAL ARMY WHEN SHE GOES TO LA
FERIA AND CAPTIVATES HIM COMPLETELY
Mrs. Alalrc Austin, n handsomo young matron, mistress of Las
Palmas ranch, gets lost In the Texas desert and nfter tin all-dy strug
gle wanders Into the llttlo camp of David Law, a ranger hunting a
Mexican murderer. Circumstances force her to stay 21 hours In camp.
Law catches his man, kills another, nnd escorts her home. "Young
Ed." Austin, drunken wastrel, upbraids his wife and makes Insin
uations concerning tho ranger ofllccr. Austin Is secretly In leaguo
with Mexican rebels. Mrs. Austin starts for La Ferla, her ranch In
Mexico, to secure damages for cattle confiscated by Mexican federals.
he lapsed into silence, nodding to him
self. "Yes, nature mixes her prescrip
tions like any druggist. I'm glad you
nnd Ed havo no babies."
Alalro murmured something unintel
ligible. CHAPTER V.
A Journey, and a Dark Man.
Alalre's preparations for tho Journey
to La Ferla woro mado with llttlo de
lay. Owing to tho condition of nffalrs
across tho border, Ellsworth had
thought It well to provide her with let
ters from tho most Influential Mexi
cans ln tho neighborhood; what Is
more, ln order to pavo her way toward
a settlement of her claim ho succeeded
in getting n telegram through to Mex
ico City Ellsworth's inlluenco was not
bounded by tho Itlo Grande.
Alalro took Dolores with her, nnd for
mnlo escort sho selected, nfter somo
deliberation, Joso Sanchez, her horse
breaker. Benito could not well bo
spared. Sanchez had somo forco and
Initiative, at least and Alalro had no
reason to doubt his loyalty. Tho party
went to Pueblo by motor. On tho fol
lowing day, Alalro secured her pass
ports from tho federal headquarters
across tho Bio Grande, while Joso at
tended to tho railroad tlckots. On tho
second morning nfter leaving homo tho
pnrly was borno southward Into Mex
ico. Tho revolution had ravaged most of
northern Mexico ; long rows of rusting
trucks and twisted car skeletons bcsldo
tho track showed how tho railway's
rolling stock had suffered ln this par
ticular vicinity; nnd ns tho train pene
trated farther south temporary trestles
and tho charred ruins of station houses
spoke even more eloquently of tho
struggle. Now nnd then n steel water
tank, pierced with loopholes nnd ripped
by cannon balls, showed whero somo
detachment had mado a stand. Thcro
wns n military guard on tho train,
too a dozen unkempt soldiers loaded
down with rifles nnd bandoliers of car
tridges, nnd sovernl ofllccrs, neatly
dressed in khaki, who rodo in tho first
class coach and occupied themselves
by making eyes at tho women.
At Its frequent stops tho train was
besieged by tho customary crowd of
curious peons; tho same noisy huck
sters dealt out enchiladas, tortillas,
gont cheeses and coffeo from tho snmo
dirty baskets and palls; even their out
stretched hands seemed to bear tho fa
miliar grlmo of ante-bellum days. Tho
coaches were crowded; women fanned
themselves unceasingly; their men
snored, open-mouthed, over the backs
of tho scats, and tho nlslcs wero full
of squalling, squabbling children.
As for tho country Itself, It wns dy
ing. Tho ranches wero stripped of
stock, no carts creaked nlong tho high
ways, nnd tho roads, liko tho llttlo
farms, wero growing up to weeds.
"I Wonder If You Ever Met a David
Law?"
Stores wero empty, tho people were
Idle. Over nil wns an atmosphere of
decay, and, what was far more signifi
cant, tho peoplo seemed content.
All morning tho monotonous Journey
continued a trial to Alalro nnd Dolo
res, but to Jose Sanchez n red-letter
experience. IIo covered tho train from
end to end, making himself acquaint
ed with everyone aud bringing to
Alalro tho gossip that ho picked up.
It wns not until midday that tho first
Interruption occurred; then tho train
pulled in upon a siding, and after un
Intcrmlnnblo delay it transpired thnt n
northbound troop-train was expected.
Joso brought this Intelligence: "Soon
you will behold the flower of the Mex
ican army," ho told Alalre. "You will
seo thousands of Longorio's veterans,
every man of them a very devil for
blood. They nro returnlug to Nuevo
Puebl) after destroying n bnnd of
those rebels. They had a great vic
H 7
Mill
rat
tory at Snn Pedro thirty kilometers
from Ln Ferln. Not a prisoner wns
spnrcd, senorn."
"Is General Longorlo with them?"
Alnlro Inquired quickly.
"Thnt Is what I came to tell you.
It Is bcllovcd that ho Is, for ho takes
hlii army with him wherever ho goes.
IIo Is a great fighter; he has n nose
for it, that man, nnd ho strikes like the
lightning here, there, nnywhere."
Joso, It seemed, was n rnbld Potoslsta.
"When tho train nrrlves," sho told
her horse-breaker. "I want you to find
General Longorlo nnd nsk him to come
here."
"But, scnoral" Joso wns dura
founded, shocked. "IIo Is a great gen
eral" "Glvo him this note." Quickly writ
ing n few lines on n page from her
notebook, sho gave him tho scrap of
pnper, which ho carefully placed ln his
hat; then, shaking his head doubtfully,
ho left tho car.
Flushed with triumph, Dolores took
tho first occasion to enlargo upon her
theme.
"You will see what a monster this
Longorlo Is," sho declared. "It was
liko him to steal your beautiful cattle ;
ho would steal a crucifix."
"I've heard that," Alnlro said gravely.
In tho course of time the military
train camo creaking along on the main
track and stopped, to the great Interest
of the south-bound travelers. It was
mado up of mnny stock cars crowded
with cavalry horses, and penned In
with them wero the women and the
children. The soldiers themselves
wero clustered thickly upon the car
roofs. Far down nt the rear of the
train wns n rickety pnssengcr coach,
nnd townrd this Jose Sanchez made his
way.
Thcro began a noisy Interchange of
greetings between tho occupants of tho
two trains, and meanwhile tho hot sun
glurcd hatefully upon the huddled fig
ures on tho car tops. A half-hour
passed, then occurred n commotion nt
tho fonvnrd end of Alalro's coach.
A group of officers climbed aboard,
nnd among them wns one who could
bo none other than Luis Longorlo. As
ho enmo down tho pnssngewny Alalro
Identified him without the aid of his
Insignia, for he stood head nnd shoul
ders nbovo his companions and bore
himself with nn nlr of nuthorlty. Ho
wns unusually tall, nt least six feet
three, and very slim, very little; n
young mnn; his cheeks were girlishly
smooth nnd of a clear, pale, olive tint ;
his eyes wero large, bold, brilliant; his
nostrils thin and sensitive, like those
of a blooded horse. Disdain, hauteur,
Impatience, were stamped upon the
general's countenance ns he pushed
briskly through tho crowd, turning his
head from side to side In search of
tho woman who had summoned him.
Not until she rose did ho discover
Alalre; then he halted his eyes fixed
themselves upon her with n start of
startled amazement.
Alalro felt herself color faintly, for
tho man seemed lo ho scanning her
from head to foot, taking ln every de
tail of her face and form, and as he
did so his expression remained unal
tered. For what seemed a full minute
Longorlo stood rooted; then tho stlff
vlzorcd cap was swept from his head ;
he bowed with tho graco of n courtier
until Alnlro saw tho part in his oily
black hair.
"Senorat A thousand apologies for
my delay," ho said. "Carambu ! I did
not dream I did not understand your
message." IIo continued to regard her
with thnt same queer Intensity.
"You nro General Longorlo?" Alalre
was surprised to note that her voice
quavered uncertainly, nnd annoyed to
feel her fnco still Hushing."
"Your obedient sorvnnt."
Longorlo, with a brusque command,
routed out tho occupants of the sent
ahead, and, reversing the hack, took a
position facing Alalre. Another order
nnd tho men who had accompanied
him withdrew up tho nlsle. There was
no mistaking his admiration. He
seemed enchanted by her pale beauty,
her rich, red hair held him fascinated,
nnd with Latin boldness ho made his
feelings crassly maulfest.
"You probably know why I wished
to seo you," Alnlro begnn.
Longorlo shook his head in vague
denial.
"It Is regarding my ranch, La Ferla."
Seeing thnt the name conveyed noth
ing, sho explained, "I am told that
your army confiscated my cattle."
"Ah, yes! Now I understand." Tho
Mexican nodded mechanically, but It
was plain that ho was not heeding her
words ln the least. As If to shut out u
vision or to escape some dazzling sight,
ho closed his oyes. Alalre wondered
If tho fellow had been drinking. Sho
turned to Dolores to find that good
woman wearing an expression of stu
pefaction. It was very queer; it made
Alalro extremely ill at ease.
Longorlo opened his eyes and passed
n brown hand across his brow ns If
to brush away perverse fancies that In
terfered with his thoughts. Alalro no
ticed that one of his fingers was deco
rated with a magnificent dlnraoud-and-
ruby ring, and thin Interested her
quporly. No ordinary man could fit
tingly hnve worn such nn ornament,
yet on th" hand of this splendid bar
barian It seemed not at all out of
keeping.
"DIosI" Longorlo continued. "Your
ranch has been destroyed ; your cattle
stolen, eh? We will shoot the perpe
trators of this outrage at once.
Bueno 1"
"No, no I I don't want to see nnyone
punished. I merely want your govern
ment to pay me for my cattle." Alalre
laughed nervously.
"Ah I But n lndy of refinement
should never discuss such n miserable
business. It Is n matter for men."
She endeavored to speak In n brisk,
businesslike tone. "Ln Ferln belongs
to me. I am n woman of nffalrs, Gen
oral Longorlo, and you must talk to
mo ns you would talk to a man. When
I heard about this raid I came to look
Into It to see you, or whoever Is ln
charge of this district, and to mako a
claim for dnmages."
"Valgamo DIos! This Is nmnzlng."
"There Is nothing extraordinary
about It, that I can sec."
"You consider such n woman an
yourself ordlnnry? Tho men of my
country enshrine benuty und worship
"Why Did You Take My Cattlef
It. They do not discuss such things
with their women. Now this sordid
nffnlr Is something for your hus
band" "Mr. Austin's business occupies hla
time; this Is my own concern. I am
not tho only practical woman In Tex
as." Longorlo appeared to be laboriously
digesting this statement. "Sot" ho
said nt last. "When you heard of
this you came, eh? You came alono
Into Mexico, where we nro fighting nnd
killing each other? Well! That Is
spirit. You are wonderful, superb I"
Ho smiled, showing the whitest and
ovenest teeth.
Such extravngnnt homngo wns era
bnrrasslng, yet no woman could bo
wholly displeased by admiration so
spontaneous and Intense ns that which
Longorlo manifested In every look and
word. Alalre knew the susceptibility
of Mexican men, and was Immune to
ordinary flattery; yet there was some
thing exciting nbout this martini hero's
complete cnptlvntlon. To have charmed
him to tho point of bewilderment wna
n unique triumph, and under his hun
gry eyes she felt un adventurous thrill.
While he nnd Alalro were tnlklng tho
passengers hnd returned to their seats;
they were shouting good-bys to tho
soldiers opposite; tho conductor np-
prnached nnd Informed tho general of
his train orders.
Longorlo favored him with a slow
stare. "You may go when I leave,"
said he.
"SI, senor. But "
The general uttered a sharp excla
mation of anger, nt which the conduc
tor backed away, expressing by volco
nnd gesture his most hearty approval
of tho chnnge of plnn.
"Wo mustn't hold the train," Alnlro
snld quickly. "I will arrange to see
you ln Nuevo Pueblo when I return."
Longorlo smiled brlllinntly and lift
ed a brown hand. "No, not I nro n
selfish man ; I refuse to deprive myself
of this pleasure. Now ubout theso
cattle." He thought for a moment, and
his tone nltered ns he said: "Senorn,
there seems to bo nn unhappy compli
cation In our wny, nnd this wo must
remove. First, may I nsk, nro you a
friend to our cause?"
"I nm nn American, but what has
that to do with my ranch and my
cattlo? This Is something that con
cerns no ouo except you and me."
Longorlo was plainly flattered by her
words, and took no trouble to hide his
pleasure. "Ah! If that wero only
true! We would arrange everything
to your satisfaction without another
word." His admiring gazo seemed to
envelop her, and Its warmth was un
mistakable. "Why did you take my cattle?" she
demanded, stubbornly.
Alalre Is flattered by Lonrjo
rlo's extravagant attentions, but
they soon become mighty irk
some as described In the next
Installment.

ARMING NOW
A BUB1ESB
The Modern Day Farmer Applies
Business Methods and Seeks
More Than a Living on
the Farm.
A natlon-wldo cry Is being made for
moro economy and greater production,
and probably never was the need of
foodstuffs equal to that of the present.
Grain prices arc the highest ln tho na
tion's history and today tho agricul
tural fields of Amerlcn offer Induce
ments that arc unequalcd In any other
lino of commerce or business. The
Ideal life Is that close to nature, en
joying the freedom of God's great out
doors and fulfilling n duty to human
ity by producing from a fertile soil
that which Is essential to tho very ex
istence of n less fortunate peoplo who
are actually starving to death for food
stuffs that can be produced so eco
nomically ln tho United States and
Canada.
High prices for nil grains, undoubt
edly, will be maintained for a number
of years, and It appears a certainty
that the agriculturist will reap a
bounteous return for his lnbor and at
the same time carry out the demands
of pntrlotlc citizenship. A wrong con
ception hns been generally noticed as
to "Life on the Farm." It has been,
to a largo extent, considered as only
a place to live peacefully and afford a
living for those who nro satisfied with
merely a comfortnble existence. Such
n wrong Impression hns been crented.
in a measure, by the lack of systema
tic business principles to farming In
general. But today farming nnd agri
culture have been given n supremacy
In the business world nnd require the
snme advanced methods ns nny other
lino of commerce. In no other busi
ness does a system ndoptlon pay bet
ter than on the farm, nnd It Is certain
thnt there is no other line of work,
thnt, generally speaking, needs It as
much. The old Idea of getting n living
off the farm nnd not knowing how It
was made and following up the details
of each branch of forming to get the
maximum of profit, at the least ex
pense, Is fast being done away with.
Farming Is now being considered ns
a business and a living Is not sufficient
for the modern agriculturist; a small
per cent on the Investment Is not
enough, the present-day farmer must
have a percentage return equal to that
of other lines of business. The prices
for produce are high enough, but the
cost of producing hns been the factor.
In many places, that has reduced the
profit. It Is the nppllcntlon of n sys
tem to the cost of vnrlous work on the
farm that it is possible to give figures
on profits made In grain-growing In
Western Canada.
Mr. C. A. Wright of Mllo, Iowa,
bought a hundred and sixty acres of
Innd In Western Cnnada for $3,300 In
December, 1915, and took his first crop
from It in 191G. After paying for the
land in full and the cost of cultivating
It nnd marketing the grain, he sold his
grain at ?.l..r." a bushel (a low price
compared with the present market),
hnd a surplus of $2,472.07. His figures

S. Joseph and Sons of Des Moines,
In., are looked upon as being shrewd,
careful business men. Having some
spare money on hand, and looking for
a suitable Investment, they decided to
purchase Canadian lands, and farm
them.
With the assistance of the Canadian
Government Agent, at Des Moines, la.,
they made selection near Champion,
Alberta. They put 210 acres of land
ln wheat, and In writing to Mr. Hew
itt, Tho Canadian Government Agent
nt Des Moines, ono of tho members of
tho firm says: "I hnve much pleasure
In advising you that on our farm five
miles east of Champion, In the Prov
ince of Albertn, Canada, this year
(1910) we harvested and threshed 10,-
000 bushels of wheat from 210 ncrcs,
this being nn average of 41 bushels
and 10 pounds to the ncre. A con
siderable portion of the wheat was
No. 1 Northern, worth at Champion,
approximately 51.85 per bushel, mnk
lng a total return of $19,010, or an uv
erngo of ?S1.70 per aero gross yields.
And by aid of n thorough system were
able to keep the cost of growing wheat
nt about 25 cents n bushel."
Messrs. Smith & Sons of Vulcan,
Albertn, nro growers of whent on n
largo scnlo nnd huvo demonstrated
thnt there Is greater profit ln Western
Cnnada wheat-raising than probably In
any other business nnywhere. Speak
ing of their experience Sir. Smith
says :
"1 have three section? of land at the
present tlmo and am farming early
1,200 to 1 100 acres of land. M) re-
C
turns from tho farm for the past two
years have been around 200, thnt Is
for every dollar I hnve K.cnt I havo
received, three, now I rt not know
where you can do thnt well.
"This Is surely the country for the
man with the small capital as the land
Is still reasonable In pi Ice. payments
In long term and work of all kinds for
every man to do. I feel that If I wns
turned out here without n dollar that
In less than ten years I could own n
section of land and have It well
equipped."
Western Canndn's soil and climate
Is suitable to graining large nnd prof
Itnble yields of wheat. Many so large
thnt those not acquainted with the
facts hesitate to believe the reports
sent out by the farmers In that coun
try. As nn evidence of their sincerity
In reporting correct yields affidavits
of a couple of grain growers are repro
duced. "I, Newell J. Noble, of the town of
Nobleford, Province of Alberta, do
solemnly declare that from 1,000 acres
of wheat on the said farm there was,
In tho season of 1910, threshed 01,393
bushels of wheat, being at the average
of 01 bushels and 23 pounds per acre.
And that from 301.09 acres of oats on
tho said farm, there was threshed ln
the said season of 1910, -18,000 bushels
o: oats, being at the average of 122
bushels and 30 pounds per acre.
"And I make this solemn declara
tion conscientiously, believing It to be
true and knowing that It Is of tho
same force and effect ns If made un
der oath nnd by virtue of Tho Cnnada
Evidence Act." NEWELL J. NOBLE.
A Woman Takes Affidavit as to
Yields. On Jnnunry 4, 1017, Mrs. Nan
cy Coe of Nobleford made oath as fol
lows :
In tho matter of yield of wheat, onts
and flax on my farm for harvest of 't
1910, I, Nancy Coe, of the town of
Nobleford, Province of Albertn, do sol
emnly declare that I threshed from
115 acres on my farm 0,110 bushels of
wheat (machine measure, which It Is
believed will hold out in weights fully
nbout three-fourths of tho crop al
ready having been weighed), being nt
the average of 53 bushels and 8
pounds per acre, and that from 48
acres of flnx on stubble ground, I
threshed U93 bushels of flnx, being nt
