Thai & Requires 10 educ nkiou no
preparation, no knowledge VI
scisnee 10 be ! successful farmar
The fact that 30 great 4 portion III
our national domain In the central
west has beer 30 blessed with soil
Of prodfgal prodnctiveness has Led
men, al unconscious Of the real
condition OF affairs, to place no com
fidance in anything but the soils
fertility, to accept failure of crops
a. unavoidable visitations of Provi-
dence, TO ignore and which science
stands ready to give to all who will
accept it.
But the patient, ignorant man who
planted wheat year in and year out
on soil that had long since become
exhau sted, and who tried to raise
corn on soil which was never in
tended for it, who never gave q
thought to the relation of crops
other than to laugh at the sugges-
ton, who went steadily forward
through ries of failures with
tenacity which would have been
heroic were it not so pitiably stupid,
this farmer, sad figure that he was,
is passing, and in his place there
comes the man who has learned that
to become a successful farmer, in
the broad sense, he must rely upon
science, he must fit himself liber-
ally for his occupation.
The instances where men have
been ignorant of the fundamental
elements of farming and yet have
succeeded are so few that their ex-
istence serves to be able only as
proof of the generosity of the soil
they have cultivated. The educa-
ton to be given young man from
the farm should be such that he
will be able to go back to the farm
fitted to take up the actual work OF
the farm from the standpoint of
an enlightened, educated scientific
workman. Nothing should be
taught with the view of leading him
to forsake the farm at gradu alton but
every possible influence should be
brought to bear to cause his return
to the farm as a prepared place for
his life work.
The farmer has always taught the
boy that he must leave the farm in
order to get into life. That he must
be lawyer, a doctor or a teacher
From advice of this kind the country
boy has sought his promotion by
going to town. AS a result each year
the city receives new blood and new
life while the farm is Impoverished.
Now my farmer friends the thing
for you to do is to make your boy
feel that the occupation Of the far-
mer is of the noblest brand, that
this occupation is the most indie
pendent, and consequently the most
happy. The peculiar environments
OF the farm developthe individuality
and character of the boy as no other
place can develop them and whea
these strong boys'are caused to 20
back to the farm and give their en-
ergies 10 our agricultural interests
I exas will have taken her place in
the forefront ranks Of civilization
and since the public schools are the
schools where our farmer boys will
get the major part Of their education
II becomes our duty TO do every
thing that can be done 10 place them
upon the highest plane.

Later Details of the Massacre
Of the Jews.

Berlin, May 22-The singular
state OF mind Of the town people
Of Kishinev, Bessarabia. while
they we're killing the Jews there
about a month ago, is described in
letter from non-Jewish Ger
man OF Odessa, received by the re-
lief committee here He said
THE leaders of the bands on en-
tering Jewish dwellings, often ad-
dressed the occupants good nat
uredly, saying Poor brethren,
we must kill you. 1t is so ordered.
. 'Monstrous things were not
done untl robbers began 10 partic-
ipate, and when. they, with the
Christian zealots, became intoxi-
Gated"
The state OF terror of the Jews
at Kishiney, the letter adds, CON
tinues. A fresh massacre is ex-
pected there and the Jews OF
Odessa and all of the large towns
of Bessarabia are living in hourly
dread OF death. The whole prov
ince seems to be in state Of ia
natical fury against the Jews
The writer of the letter then
says: THE excitement is intensi-
fed through proclamations distri-
buted in the streets and the tone
of the bitterly antl-semltic news
papers. The Russians say to their
educated and tolerant countrymen,
who urge keeping peace:

Jews be everywhere robbed

THE KIDS WE'RE HAPPY TO-
DAY.
Gentry Brothers Dos Show Gives
Great Satisfaction,

To-Day, all roads IN MISSOURI
Valley, at least those above the
high water mark, lead to the
corner of 9Th and Erie streets,
where the Gentry Brothers
Dog and Pony Show exhibits
this afternoon and tonight.
A special train bringing the
show arrived from Onawa early
this morning but not too early
for the ever-present kid who
was on hand to give the enter
prise right royal welcome. 1t
was originally intended to pitch
the canvas at the fair grounds
park but because of the storm
this plan had to be changed and
the canvas was pitched on dry
but cramped quarters on Sixth
street.
The parade this morning was
first class in all respects. De
spite the stolm of the past few
days, the wagons, horses and
everything connected with the
Gentry Brothers exhibit was
neat and clean and the parade
made the best possible impress
sion as it passed through the
streets.
Hundreds of the city's chill
dren took their parents to see
the performance this afternoon
and it gave universal satisfac-
ton. The dogs, ponies and ali
other animals connected with
the performance showed care
tul and mastcrful training and
the cffolt5 of the dumb actors
brought generous and contin-
uous applause.

visit with Omaha friends.

Where Bankers Advertise.

Rolfe Reveille:: owe have mo-
.ticed with interest for some
time what the bankers are do
ing in the Republic. They have
made something of a new de-
parture for country institutions
Of this kind, and one that must
surely bring results. Instead of
carrying a small standing card
each in the paper each has a
generous space the matter in
which is changed often. Here
is the matter used in one of
them last week and was set off
by a cut and neatly displayed:.
Your best friend is your mon
ey. Take care of it now and af-
ter a while it will take care of
you. We will take care Of it un-
I'll you need 1t and pay you b
per cent interest for the privi-
lege. One dollar starts a savings
account.
This is short and to the point,
and will give place to other lit
tie arguments equally as clear,
from week to week that will
keep people thinking and bring
business. They also patronize
the home printer in the way Of
job work, Brother Bladine tell
ing a Reveille employee the 9TH
er day he had 100000 impress
ions on the hook from one of
them. They appreciate the work
their home paper does fifty-two
weeks in the year in advancing
the interests of the community
from which they draw their bu-
siness. Likely to most people
the banking business in a coun-
try town appears a pretty bar
rem field to raise fresh weekly
ads in, but these Marathon bank
ers are doing it.
