 Elected Last Night.

A New Commander For Company A
 Elected Last Night.
 At the special meeting of Company A last evening to elect 8 captain, First Lieutenant Edwin Hart received the total vote cast on the first ballot for the position. Lieutenant Hart returned thanks for the honor, but declined to accept. Second Lieutenant James Geddes then received the vote of the company, but also declined. The third ballot resulted in the choice of Captain A. M. Dickinson, but Lieutenant Hart, in behalf of Captain Dickinson, de- clined, saying business matters would prevent him from giving to the position the attention it deserved. The fourth ballot resulted in the casting of the whole vote for ex-Captain John P. Kellogg. A committee of three was sent to find Captain Kellogg. He re- turned with them and accepted the office. In a short speech he thanked the company, and hoped with the CO., operation of the members to keep it in the proud position it now occupies The rest of the evening the new captain was the host.

How to Drink a Farm.

Bob Burdette gives a simple receipt !:
MY homeless friend with chromatic
nose, while you are stirring up the sug-
ar IN ten-cent glass of gin. let me
give you fact TO wash down with it.
You may say you have longed for
years for the free, independent life of
farmer, but have never heen able to
get money enough together TO buy a
farm. But that is just where you are
mistaken. For some years you have
been drinking a good improved farm
at the rate of hundred square feet
gulp. If you doubt this statement.
figure it out yourself. An acre OF land
contains 43,500 square feet. Estimat-
ing for convenience the land at $3.50
per acre, you will see that it brings
the land TO just one mill per square
foot, one cent for ten square feet. Now
pour down the fiery dose and imagine
you are swallc ewing strawberry patch.
Call in five of your friends and have
them help you gulp down that five
hundred foot garden. Get on a pro-
longed spree some day and see how
long it requires to swallow pasture
large enough to feed COW. Put down
glass of gin; there is dirt in it-oae
hundred feet Of good rich dirt worth
$3.50 per acre"
