"Our state base ball league has closed,
but the papers are still discussing what
might have been. Here we see the
Langdon Courier Democrat going after
the Devils Lake Inter-O Ocean, because the
latter insiuuated something about the
Milton team being Combination OF
winners" If Editor Small prssides over
the sporting department. OF the Inter-
Ocean no attention should be paid to
the opinions OF that paper. We were
sitting in the grand stand at Devils
Lake one day when the Langdon team
was playing there. The Langdon pitcher
was bowling them over red hot, and it
seemed as though Devils Lake must be
beaten. All was quiet on the ball field
Devils Lake WIS behind-when a voice
resounded through the grand stand:
sob, that pitcher can't keep up that
speed-he's too small man." Anyone
familiar with base ball can easily tell
why the remark was a foolish one, but
everyone seemed to take the speakers
word for it as though he were the author
OF base ball rule book. We turned to
an elderly gentleman who was root
ing away for dear life and asked who
that big fellow was. ooh, that man.
Why that's Editor Small! tell you
he's we'll posted on this game" HI
certainly must have been.
Unless the ball fans and newspaper
writer's at Devils Lake have hides a.

own littleness in the esteem of outsiders

A METHODIST BISHOP
 GIVES PE-RU-NA GREAT CREDIT.
Writes His Recommendation for the Famous Catarrh
 Remedy, Pe-ru-na.

The day was when men of promf- hence hesitated to give their tes timoni- als to proprietary medicines for pub- lication. This remains true to-day of most proprietary medicines. But Peru na has become so justly famous, it's merits are known to so many people of high and low station that none hesi- tates to see his name in print recom- mending Peruna.
 The following letters from pastors who use Peruna speak for themselves;
 Rev E. G. Smith, pastor of the Pres byterian Church, of Greensboro, Ga, writes:
 My little boy had been suffering for some time with catarrh of the lower bowels. Other remedies had failed, but after taking two bottles of Peruna the trouble almost entirely disappeared. For this special malady l consider it well nigh a specific. ''-Rey. E. c. Smith
 Rev A. S. Vaughn, Eureka Springs Ark, says: q had been prostrated by congestiye chills and was almost dead; as soon a. able to be about, 1 com menced the use of Peruna. l took five bottles; my strength returned rapidly and l am now enjoying my usual lth."-Rev. A. $. Vaughn.
 If you do not derive prompt and sat- isfactory results from the use of Peru na, write at once to Dr. Hartman, giv- ing a full statement of your case and he will be pleased to give you his val uable advice gratis.

HERE AND THERE.

Don't fail to read the best argicut tural papers. Form your own conclu- sions, then work them out, since it is the only sure way to make the farm pay.
 The right man to lecture before an institution attended by practical farmers is the man who is learned in the science as we'll as in the work of farming.
 If farmers as class expect to prosper and enjoy the fruits of their industry they must organize for mu- tual protection, just as all those who are engaged in minor occupations are doing.
 Fine harness is all very well for the one who can afford it, but old and cheap harness may be just as com fortable. In either case it must fit. The. horse is most interested in the collar, the bit and the head-stall.
 With the advent of the rural free delivery system it is to be hoped that no farmer on the route will delay an- swering all strictly business letters without 24 hours. The habit of promptly replying to letters of in quiry is daily becoming more neces- sary.
 The use of alfalfa in the fattening pen, can hardly be over valued. Cut green and fed to the animals, twice or three times a day, it will give as good results as though the swine were given the run of the field. It is prob ably more satisfactory as a soiling crop for hogs than as a pasture.
 -"Paclling house butter" is quoted in Chicago at eight cents per pound, and creamery, same day, twenty cents. The same cream required for pound of one would make a pound of the other. Why should men spoil good cream making eight-cent but ter?
 With all the boasted economy of our forefathers, and it was fully de- served, we are fast learning to sur pass them in many ways, imputations to the contrary notwithstanding. This is not so much due to increase of frugality as to change of condi- tions, the latter largely result of inventions and general progress.
Woodruff County news., 1901-09-12

all these papers is read, but each is studied for the thought or the fact which may be made use of. No day is so short or so crowded with work that the man who so determines can not md few moments to learn how the world stands in it's relation to him at that particular time. He who does not do this is waging an unequal bat tle,, and one in which his success can but be unsatisfactory.
 Then, too, the farmer must find time to shake off care and breathe the breath of life in other fields than those of his own everyday environ ments. He is narrow man who does not look up from his hoeing, his plow- ing and his gathering into barns long enough to find out, by means of.per- sonal contact, what his fellow is do- ing. Perhaps in nothing else does the farmer more neglect his own best good than in the matter of rest.
 As for the question of farm tools, buildings, stock and farm equipments generally, those things must, from their very nature, be left to the in- diyidual. But far too often, I think, we are not as liberal with ourselves in these things as the highest success would dictate. The time has come when we must be able to do our work promptly and in the best possible manner. If we do not we shall soon ind ourselves far in the rear of the procession. This does not mean that any one should bankrupt himself or starve his family or himself for the sake of purchasing tools. By no means. There is reason in all things It is worth while for every man to ask himself whether the money he has earned by the hardest kind of work might not better be invested in something which shall make his work little easier or the home life more attractive to the wife and young folks, than to be hidden away in the bank to be the source of future trou- ble
 But in all these matters we ought to remember that it is, above all worth while for the farmer to do ey- erything possible to bring out the very best that is within him. This is the truest and best object in living Edgar l.. Vincent, in Farm and Fj"e. side.

------- Corn and It's EufmrR

The somewhat startling fact is an. nounced by men who have made a study of the question that the pro- duction of corn has reached its limit in this country, while the demand for 1t IS bound to constantly increase. It IS claimed that the days of cheap corn-corn at 15 to 25 cents per bush clare over and that the greatly-in- creased demand is likely to force the average value of this cereal to about 40 cents as against an average value of about 30 cents fer the past decade-in other words, that the corn crop is likely to be worth 25 per cent. more for the coming ten years than for the past ten. This fact, if it proves to be well stated, will be good news to the residents of the corn belt, for coup- led with it will be the certain ad- vance in value of all meat commodi- ties of which corn is the foundation, Farmers Giude.

A scotchman's Idea of Peace

After this fashion does a Scotch farmer rebuke his sons for a recent fight:
