BEAUTY OF W0RTHTNoT0N.

Visitors to Worthington are very
decided in their remarks concerning
the beauty of the place. The trees, the
parks, the sidewalks, the newly-paint-
ed buildings, the lawns and the lake
are all doing their handsomest, and it
is agreed by general consent, that
Worthington is the prettiest town in
all this part of the west. Every one
says it looks lovely and inviting, and a
lady visitor from Dakota says "they
must sell out and come here to live. :"
We are getting returns on our early
tree planting and efforts to beautify
the town

IHE SCHOOLS.


The Worthington schools will close
for the summer vacation on Friday,
June 4. On Monday next the schools
will close in honor of Decoration or
Memorial day. On the closing or com.
mencement' day the high schovl de-
partment will hold al Emerson day or
exercise.
The schools have had a prosperous
year, the average attendance being
large, especially the spring term, which
has been the fullest ever known, being
an average of Is over last spring. The
high school has been full. Worthlng-
ton can certainly claim now one of the
best schools to be found in any of the
newer towns of the state. The high
school department is Il success and the
standard has been gradually elevated
throughout until we can now claim 4
school to which our people can refer
with confidence and pride.
Without understanding the tech
nique of teaching, and without know
ing the methods by which results are
brought about, we wish to say as an
observer that We notice q decided i'm
prOvement III the manners and bearing
Ut the scholars. We think Prof.
Wright, as principal, has had u diff
cult task before him, and that he has
accomplished it with decided skill.

Next Tuesday will be June LIST, when
taxes on realty become delinquent. A
penalty Of ten per cent. will attach and
after January 1st five per cent. more.
Formerly the tax sale occurred in Sep
TENDER, but under the new law the
time is extended and the sale goes over
to May, giving nearly year.

n POINTER.

On Sunday last u herd of over 500
cattle passed through town. They be-
longed to Mr.. Goodwin, Of Spencer,
Iowa, and were pick ed up in the vicin-
ity of Cambria, MINI. An interview
with one of the men drew out decid-
ed expression as to the beauty and lux
uriance of our prairies. He said he
had traversed Montana. Dakota and
the west pretty generally, but never
found anything equal to Southwestern
Minnesota and Northwestern Iowa for
beauty and luxuriant grass. It was
the Indians Earthly Paradise and the
ADVANCE has heretofore (say once or
twice at least) alluded to it as the Par
adise of the stock grower.

HOW TO MAKE ROAD&

An experienced Iowa land operator
and farmer recently informed the AD-
VANCE that he secured good roads by
his land by breaking up the roads and
cultivating them for few years. SOW
ing flax first and grass afterwards.
The roads soon become hard after be-
ing thus cultivated and do not cut up
into those back-breaking ruts which
form on the prairie when the sod is
worn through.
Here is hint to our farmers which
maybe worth needing. Every farmer
wants good roads fronting his land
and by this process he can make the
road pay for its making.
