The following is said to be, by those
who claim to know, tirSt-class recipe
for the manufacture of pure article
of scandal: Take grain of falsehood,
handful of run-abOut, the same
quantity of nimble tongue, a sprig of
the herb backbite, spoonful of don't
you tell it, six drops of malice, few
drains of envy: add a little discomfort
and jealousy, and strain through a bag
OF misconStruction: cork it up in a
bottle of maleVolence and hang it up
in a skein Of street yarn: keep it in a
hot atmosphere and shake it OCCASION
ally for few days and it will be fit
for use. Let a few drops be taken
before going out and the desired result
will follow.
Read what the Albert Lea Enter
prise has to say about creameries and
don't say anything more about raising
wheat: '"There are in Freeborn
county at present twenty-five cream
cries, most if not all of them having
been in operation year or over, and
q conservative estimate of the gross
receipts of the same last year would
be 100000, some even estimate the
amount even higher. Counting the
expense at l6 per cent the net income
to the farmers of FreebOrn county
from the creameries last year was not
less than half million dollars and
this in the face of an unprecedented
period of depression. The creameries
not only add to the income, but they
develop the material interests and
thus reduce the rate of taxation
They are the greatest benefit that
ever struck Freeborn county,"
A letter from Attorney J. A. Will
liams, of Omaha, Neb., states that he
may possibly visit BrOokings in a
short time. Mr.. Williams resided
here some years ago and was engaged
in the legal profession. After depart
ing from here he went to Wisconsin,
where he served as principal of sew
eral prominent schools Of that state,
and made an enviable record for him
self. Mr.. Williams is a fine speaker
and has two lectures which we trust
our citizens may induce him to give
while here. The twin lectures on
THE Real Boy and "The Real GIrr'
have elected many words Of praise
from the press and people, and it is
hoped steps will be taken to have him
deliver them both should he come
here. The public school might take
hold of the matter and reap a profit
from the proceeds.
Miss Alice f. Holt, B. L., a gradu-
ate of the University of Wisconsin
1888 and who has had several years Of
experience in teaching, has been
recommended by the trustees to the
place of assistant in English and in
structor in physical culture for young
ladies in the Agricultural college.
Miss Holt is recommended In the very
highest terms as an exact scholar in
English and is an accomplished elocu-
zionist of the better kind. She has
also had training under the best
teachers in the Del Sarte system Of
physical training for young ladies.
She is also an accomplished singer.
Miss Holt is incidentally daughter
of prominent Baptist clergyman of
Illinois. The recommendation will
no doubt be confirmed by
the board of regents, if so the new
instructor will be here very
soon to enter in upon her duties.
When wheat gets down to fifty or
sixty cents bushel, gets down to stay
down, there will be a totally different
set of growers. Those who are the
producers now are not harvesting pur-
posely for such prices. They can't.
Every bushel sold now at ruling quo
tatiOns is a sale which represents a
real loss to the man who sOwcd and
matured, harvested and shipped.
Every buShel sold represents a crippled
farmer, represents the cutting down
of buying power among that class OF
people who are not hoarders but users
of money: who in ordinary times,
under normal conditions, are reSpon-
sible more than any others Of our
citizans for the creation and main
