October Is good month to replant or

where they are badly l.eeded. to .bsautify
and make homeike the residence of <lle
farmer and his family. Children as a
rule have a natural fondness for timber.
and they should be encouraged when they
seek to plant the young shoots of ash, box
elder and cottonwood, for no matter what
manner of life they afterwards lead, they
will dwell fondly on the "iarge oaks that
from little acorns grew" and sprouts Of
ash and cottonwood, set out aad cared for
by their tiny hands which in time made a
gorgeous change in tho landscape about
them. A conscious pride liz their good
work as duty we'll done will be with
them to the end of their days.

Fessenden Advertiser: The separator
belonging to D. Bruce's threshing ma
chine outfit exploded on Friday of last
week while threshing in the vicinity of
Sykeston. The explosion is supposed to
have Leen caused by the igniting by fric-
tion of the smut dust which had collected
on the machinery within the separator.
G. Bruce who was feeding tho machine
the time the explosion occurred were
blown from the feed board, but not Sc
verely injured. The top .of the separa-
tor was blown ten feet in the air. At the
same time the explosion occurred, fire
burst forth from nearly every part of the
machine. 1t was pulled out and the fire
soon extinguished, though the separator
was so badly damaged as to render it
worthless.

srArE's GROVE.

| Many beautiful artificial groves are now
IN q trifty condition in Mclean County.
and what is also very gratifying thai not
wlthstanding the repeal of the govern
ment tree culture law, new groves .are
| being planted and cared for every resur-
ring season. In recent trip along the old
military tlall, the writer saw a fine young
grove of several acres about one mile
east Of Weller postoffice that made q;
change in the landscape much for the bet
ters from the bleak appearing hill ii, e,
that there greeted the eye few years ago.
We we're told that this grove owed it's be-
ginning, cultivation and after care to Mr..
Staff, the old man who now lies sick in
Wasl,burn. If Mr.. Staff, lid nothing els's
i'll this world but plant that grove lie has
not lived in vain. In summer days
lunches Of cattle repair to the cooling
shades from the head of the noon day
sun, or in winter the thick branches shell
them from cold windy blasts. Another
set of grateful beings-the little birds
robin redbreEst, the yellow breast prairie
lark, the hunted chipies and their kind.
repair there and take possessi ON in
the nesting season-build their nests. lay
their eggs, raise their broods and sing
their sweet songs of pure Joy for the
good that this little grove has done for
bird life. AS years go and benefits en-
large and multiply to man. beasts and
birds from this place, tho work of the
humble planter and protector should not
in memory DC forgotten as long as tree
or bush mark the spot.
