a detachment of the Canadian North-

him and Fallon and the trail was re-

exposed the entrance of each resort,

that arrangements had been com-

repatriation junta accepted the offer
of the Nayarit government on the
condition that the lands be fertile
and in a part of the state where the
climate is favorable. In order to sci-

Collections for the state were $4,-

$2,356,942. With the possible excep-

cation and renewed optimism.
It is true, of course that this single
indication does not present a full
panorama of general recovery. Much
of the bulk of the splendid gain is
certain to he due to incomes of the
upper brackets. Nevertheless, no such
advance is possible without a com-
mensurate improvement all along the
line
Then too when bank deposits show

one, there is further cause for a sense
of reassurance.
In its current monthly bulletin, the
federal reserve board reports that the
deposits of all member banks at the
end of 1934 were $6,700,000 higher
than at the end of the preceding

snow. Speed's bullet had stolen a
feast from the timber wolves.
In answer to his shout, his partner
came toward him out of the shadow
of a clump of cottonwoods.
"What were you looking for?" Mait-
land asked.
The other had an oddly abstracted
look and was still scanning the shore
line. "It must be gettin’ mental," he
said. "I got a dim sight of this caribou
crossin’ the river mouth andf had to
shoot twice to stop it. Then it seemed
like 1 —like somethin' else was mov-
ing in the timber.'’
Maybe a wolf was trailing the deer
you shot?"
They put the deer on the sled and
ketp trailing till they camped in the
shelter of some timber above the
liver mouth. When they had skin-
ned the game and cleaned up, dark-
ness had closed around them with a
bitter night cold. Maitland broke
limbs from a fallen tree for the camp
fire, while Speed was cooking cari-
bou steaks on some wood coals. Re-
leasing the axe for a moment to blow
on his fingers, Maitland happened
to glance across the river ard was
arrested by a yellow gleam from a
dark, slinking shape of fur.
"There’s your wolf," he called to
his partner.
Speed gave another turn to the
steak he was browning.
"That’s no wolf,” he muttered. "It’s
a Siwash dog. And lame. Must of
strayed from the team of that disap-
pearin’ Indian. Or the Siwash cut it
loose.”
The cruelty of leaving a lamed dog
to starve seemed extreme to Maitland.
But while the steaks were cooking.
Speed mentioned some harsher ex-
amples of the law of survival in the
snow country. The topic did not dull
their appetite. Having appeased it,
they lolled in the fire’s warmth.
Speed took a deep drag at a dying
cigaret and tossed the stub in the
fire. Then he got up and sleepily
stretched his arms. As he did so, his
eyes came suddenly and sharply
awake.

New “Fantasy” Zinnia
A 11 American Prize
Zinnia Fantasy, which was given
an award of merit in the All Amer-
ican trials for 1935. is a new type of
blossom which greatly enlarges the
field of this ambitious flower family.
As the illuustration shows, the petals
of Fantasy instead of laying flat and
close together, as in most zinnias, are
twisted, slightly fluted, and attached
in a shaggy disarray. This is a die-
tinct contrast with the formal regu-
larity of the standard zinnia flower,
and many find it charming like the
windblown bob favored by some
young women, in preference to the
rigid corrugations of the marcel.
Fantasy zinnias are obtainable this
year only in a mixture. The color
range includes the brightest red and
orange tones, as well as pastel pink
and cream tints. The flowers are fully
double.
Seeds of Fantasy should be sown
like other zinnias, after the danger of
frost is over. They will germinate
quickly and grow as rapidly as any
tinnias, and they will bloom until
autumn frosts destroy the plants.
The appearance of the Fantasy type
is another step forward in one of the
most ambitious of the flower families.
Among the flowers as among the hu-
man kind, some families seem to have
an ability to progress far beyond
others. The work of plant breeders
cannot instill ambition into a back-
ward strain, but can only guide the
progress of those flowers that show
ability to advance. Fantasy adds to
the zinnia a type which may be com-
parer! to the cactus dahlia. So far the
flower is of medium size, but in a few
years we may expect to see larger
flowers and improved and selected
color in this type. ,
gain is unprecedented. Its inesca-
pable indication is heartening.
Further gratifying to people of this
section are the figures which show
that the greatest gain in the state
was in the second, or southern dis-
trict. Collections totaled $2,159,650
more than 100 per cent above last
year's total of $999,531.
The Dallas district trailed in collec-
tions, with $1,892,222 reported, as com-
pared to $1 367,411 for last year, a gain
of approximately 30 per cent, which
is about the same gain for the entire
country.
Average gain over the country was
29 per cent By this gauge the peo-
