Leo Fry, who now sleeps in peace
He has gone. our darling baby:
They have taken him away;
But tomorrow | shall see him,
In the land of endless day.
Yet how oft think see him,
As in quiet sleep he lay;
And me thinks me hear him calling:
Mama" as before he went away.
Thus his childish voice is calling,
All through life's dreary way,
And his little hands are reckoning:
Papa, Mama, come this way.
Little heart forever stainless;
Little hands as pure as they;
Little feet by angels guided,
Never forbidden way.

The subject for Sunday morning,
April 18th, at the NJ. e. church will
be" The Resurrection"

Walter Lee Monroe, the subject of
this sketch, was born at Lexing ton,
Missouri, August Z, 1872. AT thir-
teen years of age he learned the
painters trade, at Kansas City. He
lived in his native state until the
summer of 1899 when he went to
Minneapolis. In July of the same
year he brought the family to
Extra where he, with his two broth
ers, established the firm of Monroe
Brothers, painters, which soon
gained reputation for excellent
work and had won liberal patron
age from the people. He possessed
a genial, happy disposition, an OPP
timist in the broadcast sense of the
word, looking upon life as happy
state, yet realizing candidly it's re,
sponsibility. One trait of his char
acter is worthy of mention as an ex-
ample for others, and that was his
lily claimed his attention more than
the pleasures of society. A love for
mother is a strong quality in any
mans makeup. He had endeared
himself to a large circle of young
friends who will miss his CHEEKY
face and pleasant greeting. He was
to have been married in the near
future, and had expected to make
Extra his future home. He united
with the NJ. E. church, south, IN
Palo, Missouri, in 1893. His last ill
ness was of short duration, but his
suffering was intense until death
came to his relief which occurred
at noon on Monday, April 8, 1900. In
his last hours he was very soliciti-
GUS for the welfare of his loved ones,
telling them not to worry about
him as he was going to be at rest.
He ieaves a mother, one sister, liv-
! ing in England; and three brothers
to mourn his taking away.N The
sy1npathies of their friends go
out to them in this their
sad bereavement. Funeral services
were held at the NJ. f. church, in
Extra, on Wednesday, April 18th, at
ten o'clock in the forenoon, conduct
ed by r. c. F. Chambers, pastor.
The floral offerings were elaborate
and beautiful. The church was
tastefully decorated by friends of
the deceased with plants and dra-
peries. A large concourse of people
assembled to pay their last sad
respect. After the services the re-
mains were laid to rest in the Extra
Cemetery. II. c. c.

But the Conclusion Was
Commonplace.

encouragement and an old suit of clothes,
but five shiilings in his pocket and sent him
on his way rejoicing. He told you at the
time that he never would forget your kind

Il believe you are" replied the farmer.
HE said that if he prospered he would see
that you never had occasion to regret your
kindness to a poor, struggling lad"

FEED-GRINDING NOTES.

The gasoline engine solves the prob.
lem of quick and efficient power for
rapid grinding.
With corn at 80 cents a bushel one
can easily pay for a good sweep mill
in one seasons saving of feed.
For the general farmer the sweep
mill is the thing; but for heavy feed
ing the larger mills should be en-
ployed with power.
A sweep mill that will grind from 40
to so bushels of dry corn and cob
meal per hour, is pretty good mill.
Grain is valuable as food only when
digested and assimilated, and to be
valuable for digestion must be
crushed, ground and pulverized either
before feeding or by the animal itself.
The successful cattle feeder, the one
who always tops the market, is the
one who can convert the largest
amount of crude feed into high-priced
beef. Grinding feed is great aid in
laying on fat.-Prairfe Farmer.
