“Guess you got a nice bit of land
there, boss,’

The speaker was # tall, bare-faced
young. fellow with ‘Jaughing eyes and
a cheery smile. He washappy. He
was happy. He was straddling over a
stump, and addressed his remarks to a
weather-beaten, knob-muscled, storm-
scarred man of about middle age who
was quietly surveying the fence-line of

out the boles for his fence posta,
“Guess so,’’? was the. laconic reply.
. “Heard a stranger had come on here,
Guess ‘you were bitten. They all are.
Keen in this place before, mate?’’
“Yeah.” ~
“Lots of funny coons around here.
Reckon you'll find ’em before long."’
‘Well, I ain't wanting to be seossy,’”?
smiled the rancher, “but chance I’m
getting wise to. one of 'em right now.”
“‘Betcherlife; but say, mate, there’s

nier'n me.”

“Oh, they penerally come around if
you wait a while. “ You've come."

“Gotcher water yet? Got your well?”

‘*Nary adrop. Ain’t tried yet. Plen-

“But there’s lots here if you only
know where to sink for it. I can rana

“Don't know yet, Wait a bit,’’ and
he began his goose-stepping again.

Evidently becoming tired of this after
awhile the rancher snorted and said,
“Say, sonny, better give it up.. Tain't

gone on Jong enough to draw the bowels
out of a voléano.”’

“Sorry,’’ humbly .answered ‘Herbert,
“Still there’s water down here, but, it
keeps bobbing up and down and I don’t
know how deep it is."

Reckon it'll be deep enough before
you catch it if you keep upthere. I’ve
dug down just there and there’s solid
rock eighteen inches down.’?

“You shouldn’t dig where there's
rock,’’ replied Herbert, ‘I shouldn’t,
I'd blast it,”

‘With that Herbert had to Jeave, but
