XVII "And what do you think you're playing at now?" whispered sheila. "Wolfe Just going to sit up to- gether. and wait for Mr. Leslie Dale." ma Gerald quietly. Then his voice shriliad suddenly. in a passion of mingled fury, pain. and injured vanity: "Curse him!" sheila sat down in the chair There was nothing else use could do for the moment. Gerald was as good as in sponsihle. And something was bound to turn up. Nor indeed was she particularly anxious on Dale's account. He could look after himself. she looked at Gerald-and sud- denly she did not feel sure. He sat. leaning s. little forward. There was aoiuelsmlleonlil5ll0s.andtlie eyes above the muzzle of the pistol were hard and merciless. Sic began to stammer something. but he would not reply. Re merely sat still, his eyes moving at intervals from Sheila's face to the sliuttereu win- dow and back again. Somewhere out in the night. over the hills. there sounded a rumble of distant thunder. CHAPTER XX THE LONE RIDER. During the first hours of his long ride into the hills Leslie Dale was conscious of little but a wearlness of the flesh so acute so overwhelm- ing. that nothing else could find a place in his brain where it might felrister His principal fear was not of the darkness, of mi ambush. of Wu's riflsmcn-but of falling asleep in his saddle, and rolling off his pony. As the rough track sci-perftined its way further and further into the heart of the hills, it grew steeper and stonier, so that no porur could be expected to go at more than a scrambling walk. And Leslie rocked along. feeling every iiistant more and more numb in mind, less and less substantial in body. i His eyes felt sticky. His lips, and the inside of this thighs were sore. His hands-irisplte of being gloved -were stiff with cold. For those hours before the dawn i.n the high Places of the hills wm'e sufficient- ly bitter. He jabbed his knees well home from time to time; smoked clgare'.- tes, which burned vliely against his cracked lips, and fouled his palate; took an occasional sip of whisky from his flask; even quoted what poetry he could remember from lils nursery and schocldays to help him keep awake-and probably for the first time realized that it is possible for poetry to be practically useful! And all the time, like two weevils gnawing busily in the core of his mind. two thoughts criss-crossed. vanished. and returned i-eniorscless- ly: Could he possibly hope to get to Wuls headquarters before the bandit started on his expedition” And what on earth had happened to Sheila Havclock. He know quite well that. he ought to he worrying solely on the first count. In practice it was the sec- ond qucsticn which nagged him so maddeningly. And perhaps this was not so surprising. I For the first question was. after all. it practical one-: a matter of simple fact. of the number of miles an hour he could get his Jaded pony to go. versus Wu's ability to set his men started under cover of darkness. if he failed--if W-u had left first. Tan l"u was probably doomed. Even if Dale could catch him up. the bandit could never put up with the loss of "face" involved in calling off on enterprise once obvi- ously begun. In which case Leslie Dale's ot.1'ier' problems would almost certainly be settled for him, deci- sively and dissgreeably. But Sheila's attitude-that was another matter.

But he knew too that as far as women were concerned he suf- fered from all the weaknesses of inexperience. I-le believed them to be definitely the weaker sex; to need protection: to appreciate ser- vice and affection. of the rest he knew as little as a schoolboy. FIRE AMONG THE ROCKS And then Dale saw something which drove speculations. profitable and unprofitable together, out of his mind: the lining he had bun hoping to see now for nearly an hour: the thing he had dreaded not seeing; the leaping flare of a great firs among the rocks. That last half hour of his ride was a grim eerie business. Leslie now had to lead the pony. The fire seemed at one moment not more than a hundred yards sawaypand then receded in the most exasperat- lng manner as though it were a will-o'-the wisp. almost compelling belief tint. it might. be as insuli- stsntial as a mirage. And as he and the pony stumbled blindly forward over small rocks and loose stones. Iasilo became aware that all about him in the darkness were men in hiding. ' , Now it was the shadow of a head and shoulders against the sky. Now it was the clink of metal against stone. Now it was the soft pad of shadowing feet. At any moment he felt the quiet might be violated by shots. And he hoped. that if it were his fate to die on that barren hill- .-ri-ic GUARDIAN. Cl-IARLOTTETOWN P.E.l. llas Large Agricultural -Am e-I.- Prince Edward Island may be the smallest province in Canada but it has the highest par of agricultural land of all the provinces, according to recent soil survey figures released by the Department of Agriculture's Ex- perimental Ylirnis service at Ot- tawa. Department officials have found that P. E. I. has almost so per cent of its area suitable for agri- culture and that about another 25 per cent could be made avail- able for some restricted types of agriculture, with the remainder being considered suitable for for- estry. , Mulch Increases Yields Experiments extending over a three year period with boysen- berries at the lb:-perimental sta- tion at ssaniohton, B. 0. have shown that both sawdust and hay when applied as a surface mulch will give increased yields over the standard practice of clean cultiva- tion followed by most commercial growers on southern Vancouver Island where summer moisture is often a limiting factor in the pro- duction of this crop. Tests at saanichton showed that sawdust mulch increased the yield of boysenberries (a bramble believed to be a cross between a loganberry, raspberry and black- berry) by abuut 3 l-2 thousand pounds per acre and liaymulch about a thousand pounds more than was obtained by clean cul- tivation, with total yields bring respectively 13.805. 11,418 and 10,- 252 pounds per acre. Bacterial Wilt of Alfalfa spreading First observed in itish Col- umbia some years and now present in all the Western Pro- vinces. bacterial wilt of alfalfa was reported for the first time this past summer in Quebec along the lower St. Lawrence Valley, es- pecially in Kamouraska county, near Ste. Anne do is. Pocatiere and St. Pascal. A serious disease that is readily spread from plant to plant by the cutting bar during mowing opera- tions, bacterial wilt may reduce the stand of susceptible varieties by 50 per cent. As the commonly grown varieties in Quebec are susceptible to this disease, offic- ials in the Department of Agri- culture at Ottawa are an-aid that bacterial wilt may become des- tructive in the province and steps are being taken to select resistant varieties suitable for the areas where alfalfa is grown. PIUSVILI-E WOMEN'S INSTITUTE The Piusvllle Women's Insti- tute held their January meeting on January 5th, at the home of Mrs. Elizabeth Gallant with an attendance of nine members. The meeting opened by prayer followed by the roll call which was "Some- thing To Be Thankful for in the year 1950." ,'rlie secretary road the minutes of the last meeting and gave the treasurers report which was approved and signed.

From time to time he heard muttered guttural speech al- most withln arm's length.
