Another Aid to Farmers.

A recent invention provides a needed
and efficient farming implement.
It is a potato digger constructed after
the style of Il pillow. The blade or share
enters the ground. and guided by the
operator throws the earth and potatoes
upon a separator. TIL separator is made
up Of a number of bars, forming a seive.
through which the earth drops, leaving
the potatoes, which are off tho
end of the seive, and fall upon the
ground.
While the invention does not gather
the potatoes, it saves an immense amount
of labor.

BRUTAL WORK..

The killing of young Clyde Man
well at a football game in Marysville
on New Years Day furnishes an illus
tration Of the outrageous brutality
of that game. Before death came to
the young mans relief he was able to
utter this account of the affair:
was playing quarterback and
tackled one of the M%arysville men.
In doing so 1 caught him above the
knee. Then l fell, my head resting
on the leg of the man l tackled, and
my body on the ground. When the
players began to pile on us in the
scrimmage, l felt my neck crack and
when the crowd piled off l cried "Oh,
my neck" and turned over on my
back. That is all l remember.
When football is played in the ole
fashioned way, by kicking the bal,
with the feet. these accidents will be
avoided.

STATE UNIVERSITY BONDS.

There are in the State University

and $4,000 in State bonds. This
fund is ir~reduciable and, as in the
case of the State School fund, the in
terest only a be applied to the pay
ment of the University expenses.
This interest is not sufficient to de-
fray the expenses of the University at
the present time. The Legislature

and laboratory, S32, 500 payable out
Of the Contingent University Fund.
and the Interest Account Ninety

each. Unfortunately the money is
not in these funds and as the Univer-
sity must be provided for other mean
have to be resorted to.
The State Board Of Education,
which consists of Governor Sadler
Superintendent of Public instruction
Cutting and President Stubs of the
University, decided to dispose Of
$40, 600 of United States bonds and
have the State substitute its own
bonds for the amount, the money te
be applied in paying the contingent
expenses Of the University.

AMERICA

While the despoilation of China by
idly by and makes no move to protect
its own interests. Senator Teller,
raises his voice against Americas in
activity as follows:
I'VE should Join with Great
Britain in a notice to Germany and
Russia that dismemberment will not
be permitted.
Even without Grea. Britain we
should give such notice. Almost our
very existence as a Nation is invol-
we'd. Should 1t be permitted we
would have nothing more than a
mere existence.
when it is said that the United
States cannot interfere, it should be
understood what a failure to interfere
will involve. The ACKNOWLEDGMENT
of China means the cutting off of our
in the Orient, and the in
PRODUCTION of a competitor who will
deprive us of the commerce of the rest
of the world and yer supply our own
people,
I'VE cannot permit this without
sinking to the position Of a third or
fourth rate Nation, helpless, degraded
without influence, among the Nations
of the earth.
IF this ACKNOWLEDGMENT is per-
mitted, our treaties with China fail
and we shall have to deal anew with
the Powers who take possession OF
the Chinese territory.
Russia will get the biggest slice,
and, if she is not particularly a ON
petitor of ours now, she will then be
come one.
Germany and France are not
likely to get much out of the division
of the Empire. Russia will be the
great Power.
But that is not the worst of it
If this ACKNOWLEDGMENT occurs, the
people of what is now China will be
come the producers of the whole
world. A competitive production
and trade will be introduced agains'
us which neither we nor n othe,
people can successfully contend
against. The economic conditions 0
the world will be changed"

EASTER.

The observance of Easter dates back
To about the year IS, at which time
there was much contention by the east
ern and western churches as to what
day the festival should be observed. 1t
wrs fually ordained at the Council of
Nice in the year 325 that it must be oh
served throughout the Christian world
Oh the same day. This decision settled
that Easter should be kept upon the
Sunday first after the fourteenth day of
the first Jewish month, but no general
conclusion was arrived at as TO the cl-
Gle by which the festival was to be reg
ulnted, and some churches adopted oil o
rule aud some another. The diversity
If usage was put an end to, and the
Roman ,ule making Easter the first
sunday after the four ,eenth day of the
caeudar moon was established 10 Eng
land IN 669 After nine centuries a dis
or, pancy in the keeping of Easter was
caused by the authorities of the English
Church declining to adopt the reforma-
lion of the Gregorian Calendar in 1882
The difference was settled in 1852 by
the adoption OF the rule which makes
Easter Day always the first Sunday
# er the full moon which appears on or
next after the 25th of March. If the
full moon happens upon Sunday,
Ea ter is the Sunday after.-April La
