He'll is full of newspaper men who
killed themselves blowing for some
little one-horse town, and that, too,
without enough support to fatten a
grasshopper. We've decided that it's
sin to lie, anyway, and in the future
we'll be found telling the truth.-Gar-

performance, although that was the
price of admission. The receipts

wood was up from Worthington on
business trip. She says the ADVANCE
is getting to the front and old East
wood is the happiest man on earth.
He wears a clean collar every day,
puts his feet on the table, writes copy

say is that we are glad Of it. " '..
The Dickinson County Farmers
Mutual Insurance Company, says the
Spirit Lake Beacon, held it's annual
meeting last week. The company was
formed nearly four years ago and as
vet there has not been a loss. One
year ago there was thirty policies
in force. Now there are one hundre !
and eight, with a number of appllca-
tons on hand. Farmers are finding
the organization a splendid thing for
them. .."@ ~:

a cooperative creamery at that place,
saws: 'sOur farmers elevator com

the beginning, and it seems as though
creamery, run on the same plan'
would be more of benefit even than
the elevator. That the acreage OF
wheat must be cut down, for a while
at least, is a fact that all agree on. IS
it not about time to begin planning
for something to take it's place? With
the extremely low price of cows a
farmer who has not already herd,
could we'll afford to invest in a small
number. There are better and surer
profits in dairying than wheat grow
