CHAPTER XXV.
•Mf Ever I Find a Man!"
-1 trust you've not been getting Into
trouble. Mr. Llghtnut!"
Her lovely eyes were dancing with
mischief as they hung there below
Had almost forgotten the dashed
windows—and the two cats that
might be looking out!
1 murmured some jolly apology,
adding
"Oh, yes—quite so, certainly! I
mean- -eh, what?"
She was smiling, her rose petal Up
dragging through her teeth
"The bobby,' you know, Just now"
—she nodded toward the porte-cochere
—"I was positive he had come to drag
you away to your loathsome dungeon.
And when he retired, I was—oh, so re-
lieved!" And she clasped her hands,
her eyes lifting upward.
"Oh. I say now—were you, though?"
1 grinned delightedly and slipping to
a rustic chair beside her, looked her
affectionately In the eye For all her
air of chaffing, 1 knew that under It
was a current of anxiety for me—the
darling!
I screwed my glass at her tenderly.
"What would you have done?" 1
said softly, "if he had—er—lugged me
off, you know?"
"Can you ask?" What a reproachful
side-glance she shot me through the
meshes of her silken what-you-call-
'em8' "Why, of course. I should have
drawn my good excallbar and run him
thrT rough and thr-r-r-ough!"
By Jove, how she Bald It! And she
Illustrated with the stem less rose—
dash It, no; the roseless stem! She
was superb—looked like the Jolly
fencing girl; only a dashed sight more
stunning, don't you know! And her
excallbar. too! Didn't know what a
Jolly excallbar was, but guessed It was
some delightfully mysterious but dead
ly feminine thing—some kind of sub-
merged hat-pln-sort-of-tblng, you know
—that sort, dash It! Yet she would
have drawn It—and her good one, too.
she said!
"Jove!" I sail feelingly. "Would
you, really?" And I almost took her
hand—and again remembered the win-
dows! So 1 just shot her a look
Her glorious eyea sparkled. "That
Is, I would If I had one," she said
smiling; "but I'm afraid poor Arthur
lost the last and only one. Sad, Isn't
It?"
"Oh!"
I Just felt my Jolly heart sink like
what's-lts-name. Who the deuce was
• poor Arthur?" This must be another
—some other thundering chap who
had been engaged to her. And what a
rotten, careless beggar, too, to have
lost It—that is, If he really had!
course, he would say so. anyhow. And
how the deuce did he get it. In the
first place—did she give it to him, or
did he—
By Jove, how I should have liked to
punch Arthur's head! Always did
hate a chap with that name! I flushed
guiltily, but she did not see. For the
moment, she was looking off dream-
'ly across the valley.

For an Instant. I swallowed hard—
then I plucked up bravely, or tried to
don't you know.
"Jolly likely!" I chirped. Then
gloomily: "Oh, I say, you know, was
he your Ideal?"
••Always!**—the blue eyes lighted
wistfully—"I suppose It's because he
was wt first love; I found him so
brave. so noblemannered, you know-
so simple!"
Simple! Dash simple people—never
could stand them! Thing I admired
was brains! Aloud 1 said gently—al-
most humbly:
"So glad you Ilka him, don't you
know—did like, I mean!"
"Did like? I do still!"—her tone
lifted In earnest protest—"1 love to
think of brave, dear Arthur and his
knights—so few, and yet so full of
love, of gallantry and daring!"
So bis nights were like that! By
Jove, I was devilish glad then that
they had been so few—that was some
comfort, dash it! I wondered If the
beggar was dead. But what difference
did it make now, afUr all? She was
mine now and she knew 1 knew it;
that was why this sweet. Ingenuous
child was laying bare to me her past
—the darling!
Really, I ought not to let her go on
"Never mind them now," 1 urged
soothingly. And heedless of the win
dows, I hitched a wee bit closer.
"That's all past and gone and you and
1 will yet see as good nights as they
ever were." I spoke with assurance.
"Don't you think so?" 1 added, soltiy.
She sighed. "I don't know— 1 hope
so!"—she lingered dubiously over It,
looking away again, the while her
hand put back the fleecy, golden
what-you-call-lt that was snuggling to
her eyes. I looked at the goddess
like forearm, bared to above the el
bow, where it slipped from sight un
der the roll of sleeve, and thought ol
that night in my apartment when she
had piade me feel of her biceps, don t
you know.
"You don't know?" I repeated with
gentle reproach. "Oh. 1 say, you
know! You know you know you
know!" By Jove, that sounded rather
rum, but 1 knew 6he knew 1 knew she
knew—see?
She looked at me sidewlse, her
slender forefinger pressing the half-
parted lips slowly shaping in a curve
Then her little teeth flashed, Jewel-
like—regular jolly pearl setting In the
frankest, sweetest smile!—and then
her glorious arm and wrist arched
suddenly toward me.
"Yes!" she said contritely, and with
the most delightful, kindest lnilection
and laugh—such a laugh!—a laugh
gurgling melodious—oh, dash It,
yes; 1 mean Just that!—like the flute
notes In the overture to what's-hls-
name—that sort!
"That's the way 1 love to hear a
man talk!" she said warmly. "1 think
it takes an American to stand up for
his own place, his own times— please!"
And gently, but with a lovely smile,
she withdrew her band that 1 had
tolded close in mine. 1 let It go, for
1 saw her look toward the house, and,
of course, 1 understood—Jolly careless
of me not to have remembered—hut
she would know from my nod and
shrug that 1 comprehended.
I sighed, and my deep breath
brought her gaze back to uae and her
flashing smile as well.
"And so," she said, lifting her llttls
chin, 'you think he.e are Just as
many knights now as there used to
be?"
I almost laughed at the child like
question—but 1 didn't! Dash It, no, I
wouldn't have done so for the world.
Just looked at her seriously and an-
swered her In kind:
"Perfectly sure of It, don't you
know!"
And, by Jove, I was! Knew If there
hud been any change, some newspa
per-readlng chap at the club would
have mentioned it—that was safe; es
pecially one silly ass who was always
reading of some jolly comet that was
coming He would know about the
nights.
• Yes—Oh, yes, there are Just as
many!" I affirmed positively, and add
ed quickly: "More, you know!" For
suddenly I remembered It was leap-
year, and I knew there was some Jolly
rhyme about leap-year gives us one
day more—so, of course, thered be
another night!
"You don't know how glad I am to
hear you say that," she said musingly
"There are Just as many knights, you
mean, but the conditions have
changed—the man is changed—Is that
itr
I should say the man was changed!
"Oh, dash it. yes!' I blurted. By
Jove. I hoped there wouldn't be an-
other change.
"You mean"—with a little, chal-
lenging, puzzled smile, she leaned for-
ward, her elbow resting upon her knee
like a sculptured. Grecian pillar; her
flower like curving fingers supporting
her chin like a Corinthian what's-lts-
name. you know, the sort of thing the
ancient what-yoti call-'ems always
added to top off their stunning mar-
ble columns—j*ou know!- well, like
that-—"you mean we may find knights,
not only in the field, but in the shops,
upon the streets—even in the slums;
or In the hospitals, in the church or
upon the bench—that is your idea?"
It wasn't my idea at all—1 should
say not! Who wanted to spend nights
prowling around that way? Why—
why. it wasn't respectable, dash it!
Besides, that sort of thing—excurslon-
Ing about seeing things—was devilish
tiresome. If you asked me. I never

Touching on the subject of cattle
feeding for profit and to Increase the
fertility of the soil a bulletin Issued
by the Mississippi Agricultural Col-
lege and experiment station says:
More fanners In Mississippi should
begin the work of feeding cattle on
their lands to Increase the fertility of
their soil and for the money there is
In the work.
Should the farmer be able to utilize
his farm hands all of the year around
and have a work for himself that will
produce an Income farming would cer-
tainly become more profitable. All of
the year-round-farming and keeping
things going during winter and sum-
mer and there would be a different
showlug on the profit side of the farm
ledger.
Here is a partial summary of a
work done by Prof. Archibald Smith
while at South Carolina experiment
station
This kind of work carried on by the
farmer on his own farm would give an
Impetus to the cattle business and
double tho price of cattle as now sold
In many communities. The fattened
article is a good seller at a good pric
and a good profit but the low grade
stuff la hard to sell and gives little
profit
Here Is what Prof Smith has to
say of the work of feeding three lots
of steers:
Our experiments with three car
loads of cattle Indicate clearly that
com silage and stover are equally as
valuable as hulls for feeding beef cat
tie and much more profitable to feed
The profit made In feeding the three
lots of cattle 1b of minor importance
as the results would vary with a
change In the purchase or selling
price of cattle, or the price of feed.
What Is of permanent Importance Is
the cost per pound of gain from the
different rations, and the price per
ton the cattle were able to pay for i
roughage.
With cotton seed meal at $24 per j
ton and freight charges of $100 ou 60
rattle. Ltt No 1 paid $•', M per ton tor J
silage. Lot No. 2 paid $7 1)1 per ton for
stover, and Lot No. 3 paid $7.00 per
ton for hulls.
The prices obtained for the silage
and stover is fully double the cost of
production, thus leaving the farm a
good profit for growing them.
The cattle fed silage made greater
and cheaper gains than the other t*o
lots, and took on a better finish
The cattle fed stover made slightly
better gains than the lot fed on hulls,
and at less cost.
The cotton seed meal required per
pound of gain In the silage fed steers
Is 3.22 pounds as compared with 4 67
guilds In the stover fed lot, and 4.69
pounds In the lot fed hulls The cost
of gain was 6.4c per pound with the
silage fed cattle, 9.82c per pound with
the lot fed stover, and 11.9c per pound
with the lot fed on hulls.
In the 344.080 pounds, or 172 tons,
of fertilizer obtained from the 60 cat-
. there is a difference of only $45.84
In three-fourths of the manurlal value
of the feed and the actual value as
shown by weight and analysis The
shed In which the cattle were fed was
not floored, was kept fairly well
bedded. The high value of $3.42 per
ton for the manure will Illustrate the
necessity and advantages of feeding
the cattle under conditions that will
prevent unnecessary loss when the
cattle are not fed In the fields where
the manure Is required.
When cattle are fed on a cement
floor, and sufficient bedding used, our
experiments would Indicate that three-
fourths of the manurlal value of the
feed will be available for use In the
fields, which may be counted as added
profits, less the cost of labor.

Manurial Value of Product Is
Often Overlooked.
Plant Food In Average Ton Estimated
to Be Worth $23.70—Goes Hand
In Hand With Leguminous
Crops Furnishing Nitrogens.
(By DR. GEO ROE 8. FnAPfl. Texas Ex-
periment Station.)
In discussing the ways In which th«
value of cotton products may be util-
ized to the utmost, the value of the
manure from animals fed on cotton
seed meal must not be neglected,
though It Is too often disregarded.
In most northern states, cotton seed
meal Is purchased for feeding with the
full knowledge that It has a high ma-
| nurlal value. Hence the manure from
It la saved very carefully, and the
feeder obtains double use; first as a
i feeding stuff, then as a manure. He
can therefore afford to pay a higher
| price than many of his southern broth-
ers, who realize only on the feeding
value of this product. The purchase
of concentrated feeding stuffs, with
| careful saving of manure, is as recog
nized means of adding fertility to the
soil as the purchase of fertilizers
Hand In hand with it goes the growth
of leguminous crops, cow peas, clover,
alfalfa, vetches, etc , which take up
nitrogen from the air, are fed to the
animal, and, in the form of manure go
to the soil to Increase Its content of
nitrogen.
The plant food In an average ton of
cotton seed meal Is estimated to be
worth $23.70. Only a comparatively
small part of this is retained In the
animal, with a liberal allowance, the
value of the excreta, solid and liquid,
would be $20 for each ton of cotton
seed meal fed. The weight would of
course be considerably more than a
ton, since a large amount of water Is
pre ent. besides the residues of the
hulls or other roughage fed along with
the meal.
There are certain unavoidable losses
connected with the collection and
preservation of manure, but the ma-
nure from a ton of cotton seed meal
should be worth at least $10 to $15.

cases, however, only a small part of
