The Scotch Properly Com m emorato
Their Great Singer.


A fine monument to Robert Burns
was recently unveiled at Paisley, in
Scotland. The Scotch are only just be-
ginning to commemorate properly their
great singer. The sO-called monument
in Edinburgh is a poor thing when com
pared with the magnificent tower in tho
same city erected to the memory Of Sir
Walter Scott. OF recent years, how
ever, Burns has been receiving some
of the attention he deserves, and Scot
land will doubtless some day give him
a monument commensurate with his
greatness. That at Paisley, a pretty lit
tie town near Glasgow, is in the form
of 4 statue Of Burns. The sculptor, r.
W. pomeroy, shows the poet leaning
upon the shaft of a pillow, over the mid
die of which is thrown his cloak. His
attire is that of the peasant Of the

clasps Il book with his fingers inserted
between the leaves. The face is strong.

Inventor Arranges a Novel Machine
for Use in Fire Departments.

An inventor of Racine has secured Il
patent for a new bicycle fire engine
which will be Of value at places where
there are good roads. The machine it
self is very simple, yet 1t is a complete
chemical engine. 1t is Il three wheeled
affair, but otherwise is built much on
the plan Of the modern bicycle. The
seat and handle bars are arranged as
on an ordinary bicycle. Between the
two forward wheels, resting on the
axle, is a thirty-two gallon aluminium
tank, in which is the chemically pre-
pared water for use at the fire. The
tank is galvanized and made rust
proof, and is covered with a heavy
brass jacket. The machine is fitted
with pneumatic tires and the frame is
made of heavy bicycling tubing. At
the top Of the tank there is Il pressure
gauge. Fifty feet of hose is carried,

The city is going TO consider
able expense TO fix up the streets
and make them the best in the
county and credit 10 our city. 1t
is a good move worthy OF en-
couragement. The citizens
should also become infused with
the spirit of Improvement and
make their homes attractive, thus
creating another drawing card for
Lehi. We have many nice home,
here now and many more can be
made with a little extra effort. a
little grass plot or flower bed or
a few ornamental shrubs in the
front garden will make most any
place more beautiful and home
like and fully repay the little care
they need. (

We are pleased to welcome the
Norfolk, Neb. News to our ex.
change table. 1t comes from a
beet sugar district and is working
hard for this important industry,
which has done so much for that
state. 1t has the following to say
about growing beets:
"After the experience of the past
few years, it will be difficult to
to discover a farmer in this locality,
no matter what he may believe
politically, who will not admit that
beet growing is the most profitable
crop ever grown upon Nebraska
soil. An acre of ground planted
to beets will produce from 10 to
IS tons, worth at the market price
in Norfolk from $50 to $7s.
Suppose the cost of production
and harvesting is $2s an acre, a
high estimate, then the crop has
netted the farmer from ,S25 to $50
an acre. What other crop could
be selected that would yield him
him as much? None, absolutely
none. 1t has been demonstrated,
besides, that beets are the surest
crop that can be raised, because
they readily adapt themselves to
the season. They will grow in
dry weather or they will do we'll
in wet weather, And always the
farmer knows just what he will
receive for his crop, knows that
he will find a ready market, be-
fore a seed is planted in the spring,
wherein with other products the
whole season is a game Of
chance"
