THE EPICS OF LIFE

IT God denies thee power to shape fair words,
To lure swift falcon ideas to thy tongue,
Know, none the less, It Is not by a song,
However sweet, the world is kept so young!
Nay! tits by deeds; expression Of that force
Thrilling our flesh, redeemed from brother sods.
Live thou thy poem, though it be unwrit,-
yet will hold thee comrade to the gods.

FART LAND rlOvEMENT.
james J. Hill Thinks it Is Permanent
and necessity MS well.

+ ( ~
In an interview in the Commercial
West James j. Hill says that the
present farm land movement is per-
manent and will continue. He says
that there is nothing ef the boom
about it, that it is normal, natural
and necessary. Mr.. Hill says:
"The population of the United
States is increasing at the rate of
1000 daily. We are growing at the
rate of 100000 year. Inside of
fifty years we will have 100000
people. They must move onto the
new lands and nowhere is there the
opportunity in cheap fertile lands and
in all lines Of human energy and
enterprise, supplemented by transpor-
tation facilities to the best markets
that there is right here in the north
west.
"The cities cannot absorb the 50,-
100000 increase in population in the
next thirty years. The bulk of the
population must be engaged in pro-
ductive occupations. The bulk of this
increase must go to the farms, and
they pour into the northwest as
naturally as water runs down hill.
"North Dakota and Manitoba have
received the heaviest immigration be-
cause they have more wild, cheap
land and because they have worked
while Minnesota has been sitting
still waiting for somebody to do the
work for her. Minnesota has received
all and more then she could expect
under the circumstances. The present
movement is simply one of those pop
ulation movements which have
characterized the race from the
earliest recorded time Men adhere to
the soil from which they draw sub
sistence and will go wherever soil and
climate offer best inducements. The
movement into the northwest is in
accord with the general law. It is
normal and substantial fact"

CLIrlATE AND ckoP BULLETIN.
Minnesota Section--For the Week
Ending RAY 20, 1909.

The midday temperatures were
high all the week till the 24th
There we're rains somewhere in the
state daily except the 22nd; these
were nearlv all Of thunderstorm
character, and not very heavy excep,
in comparatively small areas, where
there were heavy rains, high winds
and in places considerable hail
There was such a storm on the 18th
in northern central portions; another
on the 10th in Douglas, Pope and
Swift counties, with one death caused
by the falling Of a house, and the
blowing down Of windmills, buildings,
etc., and on the 21st there was an
unusually severe storm in the South
east, with excessively heavy rains
lasting from six to eight hours, which
filed streams and small rivers with
rushing torrents, and these carried
away bridges and washed out rail
and wagon roads, with serious delay
to traffic; rolling fields were badly
quilted. with much injury to growing
grains and recently planted corn and
potatoes, and low lands were flooded;
thousands of dollars worth of glass
was broken by very large hail stones.
The frequent showers in the Red
River valley early in the week delayed
the drying of the soil and seeding,
but in the middle and latter part OF
the week there was less rain, and
considerable wheat was sown after
the 22nd, but the low lands continue
very wet. It is said that all the
wheat that is safe to SOW this season
has bee6 put in, and that all the I'M
seeded land dry enough before June
18th will be seeded to barley and
fax. The wheat that is seeded is
growing finely. In all of the rest of
the state, wheat oats and barley are
growing rapidly, and they seem
strong and healthy. Corn and
potato planting and fax aeeding are
we'll advanced, except on the heavy
soils and in low places, and the earl
lest are coming up we'll. Grass in
pastures and hay fields is growing
rapidly, and good hay crop is antici
pated.

NECESSITY FOR SMILES.
A Discourse on the Desirability Of
Happy Countenance.

A Discourse on the DesirabiIity Of a
Happy countenance.
Certain kindly disposed persons
are in the habit of advising man
kind in a phrase peculiar to photog,
raphers to "look pleasant" whatever
be their state and condition and to
insist that even aching hearts should
be carried beneath smiling counte-
nances. Yet just as there are peo-
pie who object to those regions
where perpetual sunshine prevails
and where clouds and storms are
unknown, so there are those who
would find monotonous an ever
cloudless countenance. AS an anti
dote to melancholy Keats suggested
that when ones beloved exhibited
some erich anger" to
Imprison her soft hand and let her rave
And feed deep, deep upon her peerless
eyes.
Of course there are smiles more
heartrending than tears and tears
more cheering than smiles, while
the Cheshire cat variety of express
sion is pleasant to the point of ez-
ASPIRATION. The smile upon the face
of Leonardo da Vinci's celebrated
Norma Lisa is uncomfortable to- some
people, while over others it casts a
spell not to be resisted. It is said
that the American feminine counte-
nance is one that leans toward
smiles, and if foreign testimony is
to be trusted there is cause for a
smiling complacency in the demon,
strated facts that American women
are the best dressed as well as the
most Independent and problem free
Of all women. To have the right
things on ones body and the wrong
things off ones mind is certainly
to be as happy as it is possibletfor
womankind to be. But as for the
necessity for smiling In, all s1tua
tons and under all circumstances
that must rest with the individual,
who will probably decide that he
will look as he feels, and smile when
he pleases.- Chica 90 Hribune.
