Crc,l Bulletin.
For week ending April II,
1904. Des Moines, Iowa. The
past winter was abnormally
cold, and the ground was frozen
to an unusual depth. The frost
has yielded slowly, and the sur
face has been too wet for field
work, except on the driest
lands. The season is ten days
later than the average in all
parts of the state. A fair start
has been made in seeding small
grain in the more favored local
tiles, but the general storm of
rain and snow on the 7th, 8th
and 9th retarded all farm cper-
ations. There isa much larger
than usual area of fall-plowed
ground in readiness for seeding
and planting, and the acreage
of oats, spring wheat, barley
and corn is likely to be quite
large if the weather conditions
are favorable. Reports indicate
considerable damage to fall
wheat by winter-killing. Grass
is making a fair start. So far
as can be ascertained at this
time the prospect is favorable
for fruit. The general condi-
ton of live stock is good, and
there is ain abundant supply of
forage.

while your laws have made us
much trouble we take this OPP

Whetherlt be shirt for work or for dress, there are assortments here that are 50 varied that we might say nothing good is left out. There are two points we arc very particular about in buying Mems Shirts: First to get the best materials and patterns to be had, and second to see that they are cut to fit in most satisfactory manner possible. Our shirts you'll find are cut little longer and little fuller than most kinds, that's the reason we sell so many of them.

HEAT AND NOTION.
A.-es hSoSs
ttOn Between These Agents.


The idea that heat is kind Of motion
was entertained by Plato, who makes
Socrates say: For heat and fire which
generate and sustain other things are
themselves begotten by impact and
friction, but this is motion. Are not
these the origin of fire?"
Bacon defined heat to be "a motion
acting in Its strife upon the smaller
particles Of bodies.'' Newton, Boyle
and Hooke considered heat to be mo-
tion. Locke described it as "a very
brisk agitation Of the insensible parts
of the objects which produces to us
that sensation from whence we denom-
mate the object hot; so what in our
sensation Is heat in the object is moth
ing but motion. This appears by the
way heat is produced, for we see that
the rubbing of brass nail upon q
board will make it very hot"
Many scientific men have held heat
to h matter, and in spite of Rumford's
vigor> Is exposition of its fallacy this
materiA' theory held its ground until
comparaN' vely recent date, when Sir III.
Davy took up the subject and by his
experiments proved concluslvely that
this view Is unsound

The year 1908 closed with a brilliant
Pythian record. Never in the history
of Pythianism has the order been so
prosperous. Never has there been a
time when more perfect harmony pre-
vailed in every branch of the order.
The order in the supreme domain has
made wonderful increase in member
ship rs well as marked improvement
in Pythian work.
+ e endowment rank has overcome
the mistakes of past management and
stands today firm, safe and reliable.
The uniform rank has largely in
creased during the past year and is in
better condition than for many years.
The year 1901 promises to be equally
prosperous. The impetus given by
the past year cannot be checked even
by national politica! campaign.
Let each lodge continNc to work for
the good of tho order as though the
success Of the entire order depended
on lis sole eXertlons.
