Chapter 13
- One Light Left
FROM the front, the Miller
house wat darkened. At Ste
phanie raced up the tteptt the
heard Henri following, curling
under hit breath aj he misted a
liep and bumped a thin smartly.
She (tabbed at the bell, heard
itt ring echo from the back of
the house. She rang several timet,
insistently. No answer. Then she
raised the heavy old bronze
knocker, thumped It aonorously.
"That's enough to rouse the
whole neighborhood," she said,
but still no one responded.
"Probably gone out for the
evening," Henri suggested.
"Servants too?" and went on
knocking.
Finally found of shuffling
footsteps as of one fumbling
blindly. Then silence.
Stephanie called then. "Hello.
there! Turn off your lights." And
pounded the door again. "Turn
off your lights. 1 say.
"Aren't you rather making

"Ridiculous or not," the mut

arouna to a tme door.
As she ran she looked up to
the third story again. Still a
blazing light like a beckoning
finger. No flyer could miss that.
ine side door was locked too.
But this time she had more suc

ly brought old Mr. Miller himself.
"Well what us this?" he de
manded, peering at her through
the darkness.
"It's a blackout. Mr. Miller.
And there are lights in the
attic. Have them put out, at
once.
He hesitated. "Lights? In my
house? Well Uk. tsk we must
attend to that. Come in. young

Stephanie stepped closer. Ste-

came instantly friendly. "1 see
you now. Come in.
"No. Thank you. But you will
please get that light oft, won't
you.'
The old gentleman nodded.
"Yes. Indeed. Certainly."
She said good night, then, and
went back to where Henri was
waiting, not at all sure that she
shouldn't have offered to go to
the attic hertelf and get those
lights oft. Because apparently the
servants were not on duty.
And the light still turned min.
utes after she had returned to
her own porch.
"Well, after all. Stephanie, give
the man time to climb two flights
of stairs," Henri protested.
"What's become of his whole
retinue of servants?" Stephanie
wondered aloud.
Henri laughed. "Probably all
frightened out of their wit.
All Clear!
SHE shook her head. "Henri. I
have a feeling that there is
something strangely unnatural
about that set-up over there."
. "Have you, really? What makes
you think that?"
"1 don't know. Just have
hunch."
He laughed again. "You and
your hunches. You are tired, my
dear, and over-wrought. I assure
you Mr. Miller is as trust
worthy as any other loyal Ameri
can citizen."
Still skeptical. Stephanie shrug
ged. "If he's so loyal an Ameri
can, how come he lived most of
his life in other countries?"
"Circumstances required that
After all. it was his career that
took him away."
A long clear blast rode across
the strangely silent city and was
followed almost instantly by the
returning flicker of lights
"The all-clear" sounded Ste.
phanie lumped to her feet "It's
over!"
Behind her. the lights of her
own home snapped on and a mo

front door.

Stephanie smarted under the em

Jackson County Farm Notes
Compiled by County Office O.S.C. Extension Service
Save Those Sacks
Ther Arn't Any Mora
Pointing out that burlap tup-
pliei in the country now are
probably all there'll be until
after the war. Secretary Wick
ard has asked the U. S. D. A.
war boards to push hard on a
drive to conserve burlap and
cotton bags.
Cooperation of all farm or
ganizations and grain, teed, feed
and bag dealers will be enlisted
in the campaign; which will
have as its major objectives:
careful handling of bags so that
they can be used. Keep used
bags flowing into trade channels
so they can be put into use
again.
To make every bag do double
duty, a strict policy of "Use no
Hooks" should be adopted In
handling the bags. Careful han
dling, cleaning and storing will
greatly extend the usefulness of
a bag. Also, bags should not be
allowed to accumulate, but
should be kept moving. If you
have more than you need, sell
them to a neighbor, or take them
to a dealer who will sell them.
Prices of used bags have been
fixed by the O. P. A. Here are
the maximum prices for the most
common size of burlap bags: 10
ounce, reconditioned, 14 8 cents;
unmended, 11.8 cents; 8-ounce.
reconditioned, 11.5 cents; un
mended, 8.5 cents.
War Slated On
Cround Squirrels
Through arrangements with
the Fish and Wild Service co
operating with the county a
program has been started on
squirrel poisoning the same as
was carried on last year. Farm
ers are organized in communi
ties, the poison is delivered and
poisoning of lands is carried on
as a community protect. The
poisoned barley is free to farm
ers who cooperate and they can
receive enough poisoned grain to
cover their own and adjacent un
occupied land, if they so desire
Every farmer in the county
should avail himself of this op
portunity to get free bait.
Contacts can be made at the
county agent's office or through
Charles Elmore, who is handling
the project.
Caloregon Hereford Sal
Set For October
At a meeting of the sales com
mittee of the Caloregon Here
ford Breeders association a short
time ago plans were made for
the annual sale of Hereford
breeding stock to be held in
October of this year. No sale
was held last year, breaking the
continuity of the annual event,
because cattle were being sold
so readily through private sale
that it was impossible to get
enough stock to hold a public
sale. This year, by starting
early, an effort will be made to
secure at least 100 to 150 head

Crop Conditions
Approach Drought
Thla county is fast going into
drought conditions, as the
ground is drying up very rapidly
on top and spring sown crops
are already suffering. Some
pastures are being irrigated al
ready. Corn planting is in pro
gress on ground which as a rule
it too dry to germinate the teed.
By R. G. Fowler,
County Agent.
Victory Garden
Need For Duration
A farm garden on every farm
is needed this year and for the
duration to add to the nation's
food supply of necessary vege
tables. Armed forces will re
quire large parts of the com
mercial or canned and dried
packs of vegetables. Our allies
will get a large segment of this
pack. Transportation conges
tion will be relieved to the ex
tent that 50 million farms will
produce their own vegetables
right where they will be used.
Then, too, vegetables can be ex
pected to be higher in price.
There is also the health factor
vegetables in the diet for bet
ter health.
It is not too late to plan and
plant a vegetable garden. The
plantings can be limited to es
sential green, leafy and yellow
vegetables. Chard, cabbage,
carrots, corn, squash, parsnips,
tomatoes, beets and beans are
among the suggestions.
Root Crops May
Be Sown Now
Two root crops for the winter
garden should be sown at this
time. Parsnips and salsify, also
known as vegetable oyster, if
sown now will be ready for use
about October first. Harris
Model and Hollow Crown are
popular varieties of parsnips and
Sandwich Island is the leading
variety of salsify.
The seed should be sown now
and it should be remembered
that they germinate very slowly.
A few radish seeds sown with
the parsnip and salsify seed will
come up quickly and mark the
row so cultivation can be done
before the other plants are up.
Fifty to 75 feet of row of each
of these crops will supply an
average family of five persons.
A packet of seed will sow this
amount.
t
Young Earwigs
Appearing Now
Adult earwigs emerge in mid
March but the young earwig?
do not hatch until about April
15 to 20. These young earwigs
are the ones that are most easily
controlled by poison baits.
These young earwigs continue
to feed on vegetation in fence
rows, flower buds, near founda
tions and other sheltered places
until about the middle of May.
At that time they start feeding
in trees and shrubs off the
ground so baiting on the ground
is no longer very effective.
With these facts in mind, the
bait should be applied now and
a supply kept available for the
earwigs to feed upon until well
That't an Offer
for Amby
into May. As rain or sprinkling
destroy! the bait, more should
be spread after each rain or
watering. The bait should ot
thinly scattered in the evening
along fences, piles of boards or
other places where earwigs may
hide. It may also be scattered
over the lawn.
An effective bait can be made
as follows: Bran, six pounds; so
dium fluoride, half pound; fish
oil, one pint. Mix dry bran and
sodium fluoride then add fish
oil and mix again. Use no
water. This amount will cover
4,000 square feet.
If sodium fluoride Is not avail
able, substitute barium fluosili
cate, told commercially as du
tox. By C. B. Cordy,
Assistant County Agent.
Meetings To Urge
Mora Milk Us
Does your family get it full
quota of milk each day? Re
member it should be at least one
quart for each child and one
pint for each adult. We know
that many do not get this re
quired amount which is neces
sary for proper growth and
especially the development of
strong straight bones. The
mother whose children do not
like milk as a beverage, has a
serious problem in planning
menus that use milk in large
quantities.
If this is your problem then
look closely for announcements
of the meetings on "Use Milk
and Milk Products," that will
be given in local communities
all over Jackson county in May.
The training meeting for project
