And ao five year had gone by, and

point they could fully agree upon wui
that there was certainly a miin In the
caae, when, one day, Ihe news ciime
thut at eight, the next evening, the
lilac train would puns through en route
for Montunn.
Every one In the little town knew
what the coming of the liliic truln
nieimt, for It whs no new thins ihla
aendlngof a rurload of blossoms, some
times Into the mining town of the
North, where the breath from the tmiel
tera destroyed every vestige of vege
tation; aonietlmea to the town nestled
high tip the mountain aldea, And shlv
ered with their summer froMta and the
biting wind from the anow field
around them. Only the lust year, Lend
vllle had been brightened by the com
ing of the "lilac train," for ao It waa
called, although there were always
other klnda of flower und usually hut
one cnrloud; hut, though the shelves
at one end of the cur held potted
planta and cut flower of every variety,
It was the lilacs that were loaded, by
truck full, b the truln (flopped nt
, (me atntlon und then nt another,
i "That' a pretty cukIoiii you have
here In I'tnh," MImh 'I.lr.beth had Mild
to the neighbor who, In piislnjr, hnd
noticed her tundlng by a lilac bush,
.caressing a blossom ahe hnd plucked.
iind hHd told her about the coming of
the lilac truln. "They nay thnt up In
Itutte and Anncondii and those other
Montana mining towns, there I not a
tree, ahrub or plant growing out of
! doors. I beard of one email azalea
that sold easily for fifteen dollars In
Hutte. What a sight It muat be to
; thoe people to aee a whole carload of
blossoms coming Into their midst I"
"They nay they are a delighted as
If a carload of gold nuggets were be
lng distributed. Will you unload your
bush, there, for their benefit?"
' "Indeed, I shall he only too glad to
send some nice bouquets. I love lilacs,"
nnd as she stooped to pick up the flow
er she hnd dropped, her friend passed
on, remarking:
! "Well, I must be off," and did not
see the tenr In Miss 'LIzbeth's eye, nor
notice the tremor In her voice.
Thnt night, Miss 'Llxbeth snt alone
on her little front porch nnd wutched
the moon come slowly up from behind
the great mas of the Wahsutch range,
and sail off Into the blue vnult nbove,
nnd nn she wutched she thought: -
"Ves, I'll do It. It can't do any harm.
If It full Into Reuben's hands, he'll
understand what It.menns. If It don't,
why, the blossoms will cheer some
one's heart, und the Dther, will Just
excite a little curiosity. Five years
ago, day after tomorrow, I got off the
train here, and iteuoen went on up
North. The lilac train went Just ahead
of his, and I picked up one of the
blossoms that had fallen when they
were loading, and handed It to him. I
don't know why I did It ; Keuben had
never asked for a promise of any kind
from me, but I had read something In
his eyes, all thnt yenr when I wns
hoarding at his mother's. And his
treatment of me, too, was another
thing. IJe would come to meet me
and wnlk home with me, nnd would
ask, so gently, If the day had been a
hard one. He was such a great, good
hearted fellow I No, I don't know why
I did, It, but when I handed hhn the
blossom, I said, 'I'll wait for you, Iteu
: ben, for years, If It Is necessary,' and
1 then I turned and fled to the waiting
room, and his train was Just starting,
so he could not answer, but I knew
bis heart."
' There Miss 'Llzbeth heaved a sad
little sigh, and sat tPPlnK ner "P8
with the lilac blossom she had taken
from her belt.
i "I wonder why he never wrote to
me," she mused on presently. "I ex
pect be failed In his mining and was
dlscoiiruged. I know Iteuben loved
me," and the little woman Mushed n
If she had been talking to Iteuhen him
self. "Yes, he did. 1 know he did.
and 1'11-do HI" and then she prose
und went Into the house.
The next day, Mis 'I.lzbetli went
down town, looking her best In a pretty
dark-blue suit, with a neat walking hat
to mutch, and returned In an hour,
with u tiny envelope In her hand. Later
In the evening, she started out with
two large bunches of lllaci, und If the
gossips had met her, they would have
noticed a certeln guilty look she wore,
and would have declared, that the
drunken husband hnd been around
lately.
An Impatient crowd of people bad
been siundlng in the rujn, since the
early morning, expecting mnmenturlly
to hear the whistle of the engine that
would bring the lilac car Into the
Hutte depot. The noon whistle had
sounded ; still no evidence of the rein
ing of the liluc, cur; still a pouring
ruin nnd still a waiting mass of people.
Twelve fifteen thirty forty-five a
whistle and the crowd began to surge
forward. Into the depot the engine
punted, and with a shout the anxious,
weary waiter welcomed the men who
stood on the platforms, with arms full
of blossom.
"Throw them this way, pnrdHer."
"Olve us a few, over here." "Don't
forget us. We cun't get any closer."
Such were the cries thut came up from
various quarters, us men, women and
children, reached and scrambled for
the flowers thut came pouring upon
them.
Coming with quick step, down one
of the streets, was a man roughly
dressed In a miner's garb, and close
behind him, another, clad In a neut
brown business suit
"Now, I do wonder If I am' too lute
for the lilac train," soliloquized the
man In the lead. - "Twill be the first
one I have missed since I came Into
Montana. Five years ago, she gave
me blossom thut had fallen when
they were loading the lilac train, and
then she said, 'I'll wait for you, lieu
ben I' She read lis my face what I did
not have the manhood to tell her. She
must have been sorry for me then, and
so spoke, before she thought, but af
terward, she grew sorry for herself, I
suppose, when she realized whut she
had done, for she didn't answer thnt
letter I wrote, as soon as I got here,
telling her how gladly I could work
now, knowing that she whs waiting
for me. Well, she'd hod to wait a
long time, for luck was against me,
right along, but I didn't care since she
wasn't waiting for me, after all. She
was In earnest when she said she'd
wait I am sure of thut. And now, If
only I could send her a message, say'
lng, 'I am coming. Iteuben,' It would
be worth all these years of work and
discouragement. I've seen people from
there, many times since, but they didn't
know that I knew her, and I never
asked about her I was afraid, some
how, of whut they might tell me. till
about a month ago, when the Sweet
I.Ilac began to show rich streaks,
Then" und here he clenched his
hands till the nulls cut Into the cal
loused flesh, "then I nsked Jim Dnvls,
If he knew her; he said he didn't, but
he hud heard her nume In connection
with some rumor about a drunken litis
bund, and I turned and left hlin, and
spent a night thnt was well, a nan
don't have to die, to taste of the tor;
tures of hell. Ah, I am not too late,"
for he had come in sight of the car,
and In another moment, he and the
man In brown, who had kept even pace
with him, for a block or more, were
grasping frantically at a large bouquet
that came over the bends of the crowd,
within easy reach for them.
"There, stranger," exclaimed the
miner, "I bent you on thnt cntch, but
there are enough here for two, so I n
cut the string and 'dlvy' up, as we say
In camp."
"You are generous, sir," answered
his lute rival, "and I will gladly pay
you any sum you may nume, for my
share of them. My little sick daugn
ter "
"Little sick daughter? Well, now,
do you think I'd sell you a few flow
ers for her7 And besides, money Is
nothing to jne. Have you heard of
the Sweet Lilac, thnt sold yesterday
for fifty thousand What's this?" and
lifting a tiny tintype that had been
fustened In among the stems, he gazed
Into the face that spoke buck to him,
with a look of love, he only, could
rend. "I'm wultlng for yon, Iteuben,"
were the words, he snw fulntly
scrutched beneath the face, nnd turn
lng to his wondering companion, he
said, as he held the entire bonquet to
tilra : ;
"Just give me one small spray of the
flowers, stranger, and you can nave an
the rest for the little girl. I'm going
In here to send a telegram that says,
'I am coming. Iteuben.' "

COMFORTABLE HOUSE
ENCOURAGES FOWLS
The poultry house Is both the home
of the hen and the factory where win
ter eggs are produced, und unless It
provides suitable living und working
conditions the hen cannot be expected
lo lay well. To be comfortable the
house must be dry, well ventilated,
well lighted and have sufficient floor
space to provide exercise by scratch
lng. Dryness Is Insured by having a
good roof, keeping the floor of the
house higher thun the surrounding
ground, and ny providing good ventllu
tlon. Ventilation must supply plenty
of fresh ulr without drafts. This Is
secured by having the south side rela
tively open and the other three sides
absolutely tight. The Importance of
light in the poultry house bus not been
properly emphasized Inithe past He
cent experiments with artificial lights
show that by furnishing more light so
that the working period for the birds
Is lengthened the egg production can
be materially increased. In many
farm poultry bouses no windows are
provided and the house Is in constant
twilight on cloudy day even whethe
door Is left open. Needless to say,
this condition does not favor activity
on the part of the hen. To Insure good
natural light In a poultry house the
openings in the walls should equal
about one-fourth-of the floor space of
the bouse. At least half of these open
ing should be for open-fnont ventila
tion, and the windows should be so
arranged that the maximum amount Of
sunlight will be available to the birds.
Wherever possible windows should be
placed In the east and west ends of
the building so thut the early morning
and late afternoon light will be se
cured. To Insure room for scratch
ing not only must sufficient floor space
be provided but the droppings must
be kept off the floor and a deep Utter
of straw or similar material be sup
plied so that the birds can be made
to scratch for their feed. To keep
the droppings off the floor every
poultry house should be provided with
a droppings plutforin arranged under
henth the roosts to catch the manure.
Dried Buttermilk Found
Profitable for Poultry
At the Indiana experiment station
several tests have also been made
with dried buttermilk for laying hens.
In one of Its bulletins on this subject,
A. C. riiillips, who conducted the tests
In which dried buttermilk was com
pared with liquid buttermilk, says:
"The Income from the liquid butter
milk fed pen wu $7.13; from the dried
buttermllk-fed pen, $8.21; and from
the no nillk fed pen, $2.39." Stating
the same facts In different words, Mr.
Phillips continues: "The profit over
feed cost from the liquid buttermllk
fed pen was $4.02; from the dried buttermllk-fed
pen,' $.r.C9; and (rora the
no-mllk-fed pen, 78 cents."
Thus we see that the pen fed dried
buttermilk as a protein carrier, made
the Inrgest profit per bird per yenr.
The pen thnt received no milk of eny
kind netted less than $1 per hen per
year. In addition to getting more
eggs, from the dried buttermilk thun
from the liquid buttermilk, that In
stitution also obtained greater hntcha
blllty In the eggs from the dried but
termilk pen than from the one fed
liquid buttermilk.
JSmden Geese Popular
, The Emden breed of geese Is one of
the best known nnd most popular of
all the varieties known. Individuals
of this breed are large, and beautiful
ly formed. The back Is fairly straight
while the under part of the, body Is
canoe shaped, or, almost crescent.
They have blue eye, orange bill
shanks and toes and pure white plum
age. Size and vigor art the principal
features to be considered when mating
these birds. It Is quite common for
the females to develop a "dewlap" or
loose pouch of skin tunder the body.

m FACIJ
WATER FOR COWS IN
WINTER IMPORTANT
Many cows full off In production It;
the winter time either becuuse they
do not receive enough water, or be
cause thut which they do receive I
too cold. A big. high-producing cow
need eight to fifteen gullons of water
dully, depending on her feed; und If
she docs not get It her milk will drop
In the winter time, If the cow Iihs to
suck water out of a hole In the Ice or
drink out of a trough which is Ice
cold, slie will not tuke enough to sup
ply her needs. I'artlcularly this Is
true If she has to go fur to get It In
cold, stormy weather. Further, this
Ice-cold water cools down her body
so that she hits to use a lot of her
feed to produce beat to restore pel
temperature. Thus, too cold water
wastes feeds, and this Is true for all
dulry unlmuls us well as the cow In
milk. If the animal shivers after
drinking, the wuter Is too cold
Automatic drinking buckets In the
stable assure the animal of plenty of
watir which will not be too cold and
are Ideal equipment for the dairy burn
However, It is entirely possible to pr
vide water satisfactorily with less ex
pensive equipment. A trough of wa
ter In the barn to which the cows have
access twice a day will assure ample
water which will not be too cold.
On mnny farms where the well or
brook Is close to the barn, the water
can be pumped Inside with an ordl
nary pitcher pump. Cows should be
let out a little while every day for ex
erclse, but if possible they should be
watered In the born. They will drink
more and eat more.
Get Rid of Separators
That Rob Dairy Farmer
There are a number of separators
that are robbing the farmers of cream.
This was brought to light recently
when A. J. Cramer, director of
Wisconsin cow testing associations,
Wisconsin College of Agriculture, re
ceived a letter from one of the testers
out In the field.
"I have tested skim milk frequently
and found many separators that were
sadly worn out of adjustment to the
extent that they were wasting many
dollars each month for the farmer who
sells cream," reports one tester.
"During August we had a new mem
ber join our association, and when I
made my first visit to his farm he told
me that he was trying the tester on
the suggestion of one of his neighbors.
I took samples of milk from all the
cows, and also of the skim milk. To
my surprise, there was more fat In
the skim milk than could be tested
In the skim milk test bottles. So I
ran the samples In whole milk test
bottles and discovered that they tested
2 per cent of butterfat.
"The following month I again tested
the skim milk, and this time It tested
ltt per cent butterfat. That resulted
In the buying of a new separator be
fore I left the farm the following day,
"It might be interesting to know
that the new separator represented
the saving of 92 cents per day, or
$276 a year for that furmer."
Liberal Feeding Is Big
Secret With Dairy Cows
Liberal feeding Is the secret of suc
cess in handling animals. Given dairy
cows of the right type, success is sure
to attend the man who feeds with a
free hand, it Is Impossible 'to get
something for nothing, at least In the
dairy business. How long will It be
before all the farmers In this country
learn that a poorly fed calf means a
small, undeveloped cow, and that a
runty cow poorly fed means no profit?
What we need are cows that have
been well fed and well developed, nnd
that are able to make good use of
large quantities of feed. We : do not
need to look for the cow that can sub
slst on a small rutlon. t We need a
machine that Is capable of turning a
large amount of food Into milk everv
day. Find the cow, or the type of cow
that turns feed Into milk, then give
her lots of feed to work on.
