The rain has again stopped spring
work, but we cannot kick as the
wheat and oats are mostly in, iu this
nelghborhood, and the wheat that
was put in the first week of April is
gree green noW.ssss So.
Mrs. j. T. Imsdahl, who has been
very sick the last three weeks. is now
slowly recovering; she has en- able
to be up part Of the time the last
three days.
The steamboat Was heard coming
this way this morning for the first
time this spring; she is rather slow
coming around this year.
Last Friday we had the worst
looking storm We have ever seen. At
> O'Clock a dust cloud came over the
Red River timber with a hard wind,
and about 6 o'clock it started to
hail and rain; at $50 it was SO dark
that the lamps had to be lit and
staid dark till sunset, when it lit
up enough so we could see the sun
set, but that was all, too.

ALL OVER THE HOUSE.
Suggestions on the Arrange.
ment of the Hall.

Hall curtains may be hung from
swinging brackets, to be pushed
back flat against the walls when a
freer passageway is needed. These
brackets are often used in apart
ments where the parlor and dining
room are just by the front door, the
bedrooms and bath beyond. Perfect
privacy is then secured the tenant,
and a pretty interior is suggested to
the visitor. The quality of the cur
tain must depend upon the sur
roundings. Sometimes heavy tap
estry can be used, a velvet or silk,
but oftenest'a simple hanging serves
every purpose.
There is transparent Japanese
silk showing painted flowers or fig
ures, which in many places is bet
ter than anything else. The hall
is not darkened by it, and at the
same time no visitor can see
through it. The general effect is
apt to be enhanced by small table
in front of the hall curtain, and if
the other appointments of the house
justify the use Of cathedral and
church lamps one Of these suspend
ed from the ceiling by the curtains,
with pieces Of brass or of pottery on
the table, will be found most inter-
esting. For the most part, however,
the simpler the, arrangement of the
table the better, a crystal vase with
fresh cut flowers or a palm being all
that is needed.-Harper's Bazar.

West Valley.

Seeding made fair progress the
past week, though a shower of ram
Friday eve last made it little worse
in the wet places.
Carl Swenson went out to work in
seeding the latter part OF the past
week.
Z. Lang, agent for Dr. Wards
remedies, canvassed West Valley the
past week.
Miss Lavine O. Rokke left Friday
last. She will teach parochial school
at different places during summer.
II. ?. Elseth made a trip to places
below Crookston a week ago.
The land fever has struck number
OF prominent people here, and land
is going faster than one can imagine.
Some OF those who recently have
bought land are: II. P. Elseth, 12O
acres; E. 0. Rokke, 40 asres; As.
Rokkc, 40 acres; Lavine O. Rokke,
50 acres; Carl Swenson, 40 acres.
The Town Board on Thursday last
made a final settlement concerning
the strip broad by N. P. Swenson's
place; the road was moved so as to
run on the south side OF Mr.. Sven
sons house. Mr.. Swenson will re-
ceive $500 in addition to what he
got last year for right OF way
Through his land. On account of the
road being moved farther south, it
requires only small bridge across
the coulee there. The contract for
building said bridge was awarded to
A. 5. Rokke for the sum OF $4,000.
The lowest bid received for building.
a bridge at the old place was $4,000,
thus by moving the road it is not
only just as economical but also a
very much better road will be made.

GERANIUM FLAVORING.

Among the old fashioned flower
ing plants the rose geranium has al
ways occupied prominent place in
popular favor. . ... . re-
Our grandmothers and perhaps
some Of their grandmothers have
been known to strew the fragrant
leaves among their lingerie, but few
know of the culinary value of the
humble plant. II
The next time you are making
crab apple jelly Try this recipe 1 with
a few glasses: ~. -"
Have the geranium leaves washed
to free them from any possible par
asites. Then, just before pouring
the hot jelly into the glasses, throw
small leaf into the bottom of each
glass. .1.. .....
It may be allowed to remain until
the jelly is used and will not spoil
it in any way. The result is an inde-
scribable flavor, which improves the
jelly immensely.
sometiTes when baking a cake
line an earthen plate with the ge-
ranium leaves and turn the hot
cake upon them, leaving it there
until quite cold.
The steam absorbs the fragrance
from the leaves, giving the cake the
daintiest possible favor, that sug-
gests nothing so much as the odor
of La France rose.-What to Eat.

Milwaukee players by a score of to 5.
1t was witnessed by about 300 people.
The afternoon game proved a great

but the Milwaukee players proved their
superiority by again winning by a
score of II to Z.

Among his great associates Abra-
ham Lincoln lowered like the Mount
of the Holy Cross among its foothills.
No one of these men could change
places with him. His management of
the Trent affair proved him greater
statesman than Seward. General
Sherman has said that Lincoln was
one of the best of military men.
This forest born President wrote
State papers which are models of COM
position, and which are filed to the
brim with the warm life of human
feeling and tenderness.
One of the great features IN the
character of this marvellous man was
his great fund of rich anu saving COM
mon sense. He always Travelled IN
straight line towards the centre truth.
If oratory is made up of clear, force
full and natural words filled with sim
certify. then Abraham Lincoln stands
out alone as an orator. For depth of
feeling, for heartfelt emotion, Lin
coins marvellous funeral grafton at
Gettysburg will touch the human
heart as long as Our world shall re-
main.
His Emancipation Proclamation
ranks with the Magma Charta, with
the Bill OIL Rights and with the Declar-
alton of independence. It carried JOY
to more hearts among the 1ow1y and
oppressed than any other human pro
duction.
His life is sufficient answer to such
as ask "What good can come from
American He was loved and admired
by prince and peasant, by poet and
p1owboy. The great thinkers and
writer's of the past century have stood
uncovered before his inspired power of
expression.
When his great heart was stopped
the whole world was silent in tears.
He was buried on Americas darkest
day. Even from the war embittered
Southland came the voice of mourning
and of weeping as for friend in need.
He was our Captain Greatheart.
When we consider his start in life, of
the things he cast out of his path in
his Journey toward fame, and of his
surprising greatness in so many fields
we must rank him as the First
American.
Every youth between the oceans
should study the life, writings and
sayings of this great character. More
than all, consider his great moral
force. Herein lies his supreme great
ness. There is no way so well suited
to do him honor as to study that life
which is the most precious gift to
America.

AFTERNOON GAME.

Attendance lCoO. Time, hour and 50 minutes.
Umpire, Tanning.
Decoration Day was a gala day on
golf links of the Kenosha Country
Clubs which were formally opened for
the season in the afternoon. Interest
conferred in the new fifteen hole links
which were opened to the players. and
the fact brought a large number of
entries for the competitive handicap
match which was played during the
afternoon. Twenty-Five gentlemen and
three ladies were entered in the match.
The new greens were in poor condition
and for this reason the scores were
below the average. William Petit
made the best score for the day, COM
pleting the eighteen hole course in 99
strokes. Dick Cavanagh, with net
score of SO, won the match. Among
the ladies, Mrs. Aiken, with net score
of 90, won the first prize, while Miss
Lance, the scratch entry was second
with a score of q. During the day
dinner and supper was served at the
club house, and the opening proved to
be quite a social event.
