The Dear. Worn Hand.

Few things arc capable of touching one with deeper sense of pathos than the shrunken, blue veined hand of one who is near and dear. Nothing brings a sharper pang of foreboding and q harder lump in the throat than tho first time it strikes us that the gentle hand that soothed our childish pains and griefs and has gladly worn away it's softness and beauty in our service is thin and withered, with purple veins that stand out like whipcords when it lies at rest. Such n hand ought to look moro beautiful to thoso for whom it has toiled whose suffering it has charmed away, than tho fairest hand ever modelod by q sculptor. Philadelphia Press,

Rejoicing In EnRland.

The English press is beginning to speak
in exultant tones of the advantages which
English manufacturers will reap from the:
new American tariff. The Germans are
also greatly pleased over like prospects.
Now they look for business revival.
the idle wheels Of European Factories
and furnaces are to be set in motion, and
the product of this new impulse is to be
pushed on to the American market, to
take the place of American industry and
American manufactures. This new com.
petition with our people is to come after
the great depression of the past year, dur
ing which tens of thousands of American
mechanics have been out of employ, or
working at low wages, and will have the
effect to keep many of them idle still
longer, besides compelling further rcduc.
ton of wages, all along the line This is
what congress has accomplished after a
years excitement, quarrel and delay: 1t
has passed bill to help Europe, and
keep up the depression in America. : Cas-

Windmill Irritation.

The Winona Times last week had q
lengthy article on windmill irrigation;
but it's writer makes tic same mistake that
is frequently made by those who have had
no experience with windmill irrigation
he wants to irrigate too much area with
given amount of water. For four sea-
sons the editor Of the Record has used
windmil; tank, pipes and hose as an ir.
rigation plant, and has found that an
acre is enough to be watercd with one
we'll and one windmill. although the we'll
is exhaustless. Besides, to properly irri-
gate an acre of garden truck, it would
take one man good share Of bis time.
But for garden of ordinary size there is
no doubt that we'll water pumped by a
windmill can be used to advantage. 1t is
probable, however, that, with as good a
market as Fort Yates near by, it would
pay settler not toe far away to procure
a plant for irrigating an acre or two, as
IN gardens artificielly watered there is a
yield double or treble that which is oh.
tanned in this region without water.
