Lincoln Institute Notes.

Among those interested in educa-
ion who have recently visited the
institute, creating enthusiasm by
their excellent addresses, or cheer
ing by their presence, as the case
may be, may be mentioned Bishop
Lee, Professor G. N. Grisham, J.
w. Baldwin and l. NJ. Horton.
President Allen recently spent

his return gave the faculty and
students an inspiring account of
school work as seen in other cities.
The faculty rendered President
Allen a complimentary surprise
reception at the mansion, Friday,
March 27th in appreciation of his
progressive and harmonious admin
istration. An excellent program
was rendered, toothsome daintie S
were served and the evening was
thoroughly enjoyed by all pres
ent. Among the honored guests
was Principal ]. w. Baldwin of
Kansas City.
The Lincoln Institute Boys
Glce Club" has received an invita-
ton to sing in Kansas City, in the

Looking on the bright side of
life can be made habit which can
scarcely be resisted by those COM

of cheerfulness and hopefulness
can be formed just as easy as COM

We really do not drift into habits,
we cultivate them. 1t is by taking
cheerful and contented view of
people and interests outside of self

All Over the Farm.

Animals cannot thrive their best
on dry food alone, no matter how
plentiful.
What most people regard as scien
tific farming is only the common
sense method of doing.it.
No animal of any breed or species
of domestic animals will uniformly
produce young that are all of su-
perior order.
A little. kno Wedge, well used,
counts more than a university
training that fails to fit one for
doing his work.
One of the surest signs of ad
vanced civilization in a country is
the fact that improved live stock is
a part of the farming.
1t is asserted that cattle which re-
ceive.. salt regularly are less liable to
disease than are cattle which are
not so provided for.
A great many are prone to take
the wrong view of the farm. They
do not put the proper value on it,
because they credit it with only
what it brings above living and
what is enjoyed from it.
A garden properly conducted
will furnish something to sell every
day in the year, and one need never
go to town without taking some
thing from it to sell. This is not
the result from the usual farm gar
den, for the soil is kept neither
sufficiently rich, deep nor well
drained.
Rotation of crops is necessary for
success in farming, as two or three
crops of the same kind cannot be
profitably grown on a lot. This
may be noticed every day, as hedge
plants cannot be renewed by a
hedge.sof the same kind and trees
planted in place of others of the
same kind do not thrive. The best
results are obtained when there is
a radical change of crops.
Better than to give your boy
$1,000 when he is twenty-on
years old is it for you to give him
but $500 and use the other $500 to
give him two years at some agri
cultural college when he is seven.
teen. He will then be in shape to
earn that other $500 and a good
deal more besides. There is moth
ing surer today than the fact that
the man who knows is the man who
can make money. And this is not
all. That two years at college will
so broaden and widen him that he
will not only be able to make more
money, but will in every way be {
bigger, better type of man.-Live
