If my death occurs before you reach that city tum about and go to your home and keep the crystal.” Things were beginning to sound pretty grewsome to Barclay by this time ,and he began to wish he were well out of the palace. However, to all outward appearances he was still as calm and unnerved as if he were talking to an ordinary companion in his club in New York, and his an- swer was made in a perfectly cool, calm voice. “Yes your highness. And the mis- sion I am to fulfil?” “Simply deliver this to the high ofiicial. He will understand. It bears ‘a message, a last appeal. Take it. “Farewell, stranger,” smiled the ra- nee wearily. The ranee shot a swift glance of approval at this manoeuvre on Bar- clay’s part, the roof was‘filling now with a gay company of guests and attendants. “Thé name highnessâ€"you forgot the name of the official in London,” reminded Barclay in an undertone. The ranee leaned forward and beck- oned him nearer. “Let me whisper,” she murmured. Barclay inclined his head to listen to a name that caused his eyes to flash excitement and incredulity. “Hide it!" she hissed sharply, and his fingers tucked it into his waist- coat pocket and fumbled there, finally bringing forth a cigarette box and some matches. VMany curious eyes regarded the handsome face and the well knit form of the American who had just receiv- ed a confidence from a noble ranee of India. The ranee thrust the tiny box into Barclay’s hand, and he turned to go. “As your highness dictates,” he said when she had finished. John Barclay salaamed once more and turned to leave the roof. As he looked around for the Hindu guide who had conducted him from Temple Hill to the roof he heard sounds of 'confusion. There was a stifled shriek fron‘i the ranee’s silken canopy, and even as Barclay gazed doubtfully in the direction of the commotion dark hands drew the silken curtains clos- Iy about the divan where the ranee had been sitting. Then for a moment Barclay felt that his fears were to be realized and that he was caught in a most dan- gerous trap. The feeling passed in a moment," however, for Barclay was a man of iron nerve and, moreover, re- alized that he was too important an American citizen to make it safe for them to endanger his life. In an inâ€" stant he was his cool calm self. He glanced around on the gain dressed men and women who had on- tered but a few minutes previous and at the obsequious attendants. A11 stood mute and impassive as statues. “What has happened?” asked Bar- clay of a sharp featured Brahmin. “Our ranee is dead,” said the man sauvely. “I must see. Let me pass agent for the ranee.” THE-RANEE’S CRYSTAL (Continued from Page 2). Phone Hud. 7303 THE LIBERAL, RICHMOND HILL, ONT. vinced!” commanded Barclay, and his revolver cleared the way for him. Barclay suddenly stopped at the look in the man’s face, a look of mal- ignant hatred and bitter suspicion, a murderous look that brought the American's hand to his hip pocket. He dashed through the eilken cur- tains of the ranee’s canopy and stop- ped short at what he saw. The form of the beautiful woman was stretched upon the ground before her divan. Her dark eyes stared sightlessly upward, and from the pale silks of her bosom there shone the jewelled handle of a dagger. Barclay stood with bared head for a moment, and then without inter- ference from the silent gathering on the roof he found the narrow stairway that led to the deserted garden and so finally came to Temple Hill and the road to Bombay. i Protein is the most expensive kind iof feed required by the dairy cow Land at the same time it is indispens- iable for the formation of new tissue {and for the manufacture of milk. When he reached London he found that the high official to whom the ranee had directed him‘had been foul- ly murdered at the very hour in which the ranee had met her death. ‘ Now the ranee’s crystal belonged to Barclay, and when he had it apprais~ ed he learned that it was awhamond of the purest water. The End By a conservative estimate the val- ue of good corn silage os from ten to twenty per cent] greater than that of dry fodder. Dairy cows should not be kept in low condition. There are far too many underfed cows for the greatest profit to their owners. HC‘-_iny meal is : corn in feeding value forms an economical bo-hydrates. Fat is the most valuable part of milk when it is sold, but protein is the most expensive ingredient of feed when it is purchased. I Frequent or radical changes in the ration of the dairy cow are not to be recommended as they tend to throw the cow off her feed and cause diges- tive troubles. l It is a good plan to milk and do [the feeding of the dairy herd at reg- ’ular hours. Cows appreciate regu- tlarity in their care and will show itheir appreciation in the milk pail. When the low prices for the ingred- ients are considered the prices asked for some of the live stock tonics are exhorbitant. With he;.l’:‘n;r animals they are not needed. Substitution of skim-milk for whole milk should take place slowly in the feeding of calves. About three weeks to a month should be given for the complete substitution. l The yellow\plgment in the fat of the animal is the same as that in the milk fat, but at the same time the .coloring matter must be supplied in |the feed before it can appear in the 1 milk. [ Good care should be taken of the Ifall calf so that it will not receive lany set-back during the cold winter and may be ready to make a good |growth on the pastures of the follow- iing summer. Silage made from dry fodder is not quite as good feed as that made from ‘the fresh green fodder, but if enough water is added to it the resulting sil- lage is considerably better than the ,dry fodder as feed. “Let me pass! I must be con- The dairyman with good cows can make a double profit if he is a good feeder. He cannot only market his feet at good prices through his cows, but he can also make good money for himself while attending them. When one considers that a dairy cow may, in the course of a single year, produce twice her own weight of solids in milk, it is immediately apparent that she must be an extra- ordinarily economical producer of huâ€" man food. When cattle start rubbing it is an indication that vermin is beginning to work. Linseed oil and coal oil rub- bed into the hair is effective.

The idea of the competition is to arouse interest in the historical land- marks of our County. Every-school section has two or more. It may be the site of the home of the first set- tler and the story of his coming. It may be a family grave yard and the story of the first burial. It may be the site of an early church or school. It may be the site of an early trail or road, or the first railroad, steam or electric. It may be the site of a hotel which was the community centre or of ‘a. post office which was the trading centre. It may be a monument mark- ‘ing some incident in our country’s growth. 10. It is suggested that the judges in making awards while giving the full value to essay as to points of composi- tion, will give consideration to the in- cident which is of greatest historical importance. It is expected that the essays in this competition will form part of the regular school work of the pupils and is not intended to interfere with their studies but rather to stimu- ate their interest in one phase of their work. 11.
