There appears to be hay famine at
various points west of here, and it oc-
ours to us that in Redwood county.
where hay is plentiful, a few hay press
es might make a good thing baling
hay for this western demand.

The Tracy Trumpet man signs for a
forty-foot fall of snow, as railroad bus
mess is duller there, and more men
out of employment, than has been
known for years. A snow blockade
would create demand for railroad
labor, don't you sect

New seats have been ordered for the
school room of the second intermedi-
ate department, and the school board
are negotiating for an additional school
room in which to place the old seats
and relieve the over crowded rooms in
the first and second Intermediates. II

needs additional school rooms, and
will find it necessary to erect another
school building in the near future.
D. J. Burrell, D. D., says some time
ly things for young men who take
pride in their rowdyish, coarse anc
vulgar ways. "More young men die
of smartness, than of all the epidem
les and contagious that flesh is heir to.
Genuine goodness, real honor, honesty
and moral worth, they are too tame
and commonplace for our "smart'
young man. Jessie James in his eyes
is greater hero than George Wash
ington. To be "tough" is a greater
honor than to be president of the
United States.
