Last winter the agricultural
school at the University attract
ed a great deal Of attention by
winning the grand champion
ship for steers exhibited at the
International Show at Chicago
with the steer Challenger. This
year they are sending a full
brother of Challenger to Chicago
for the same contest. This steer
is reported to be larger and bet
ter than the champion steer Of
last year. If he should win any
important place in the show he
will be brought back to the Uni
versity and be used in the judg-
ing class for the winter course
which begins the first week in
January. Boys who contemplate
attending the winter course will
have an opportunity TO see the
finest type of steer yet produced,
and to use this as a standard to-
ward which they can work on
their own farms.

Judge Hostetler's prompt ac-
ton in dismissing the Judkins
divorce case last week after hear
ing the evidence should be a
warning to all others that live
in his jurisdiction. The Judge
evidently is not one who believes
that marriage is failure and he
proposes to hold them to their
marriage VOWS, unless there are
strong reasons why they should
be separated.

Commencing January ?, 1905,
the University of Nebraska offers
a course of instruction in the
principles and practice of agri-
culture. The course covers the
subjects of soils, field crops,
dairying, butter and cheese max
ing, breeds and Judging of live
stock, diseases of farm animals,
horticulture, shop work, farm
machinery, and English. No
examinations are required for
entrance. 1t would seem that
many students from this county
should attend and take advant-
age of the instruction offered,
for the knowledge gained will
not only enable young farmers to
get better returns from their land
but will also help them to save
money in carrying on farm work

Ex-senator Brown of Georgia,
publishes a card urging all Of
the presidential electors to cast
their votes for President Roose-
Welt aud make his election unani-
nous. He says: 81 honestly
belive, as a democrat, that the
best thing for us, the south, to
do, is for Judge Parker and the
democratic executive committee
to request the southern electors
to cast their votes for President
Roosevelt and make his election
unanimous. He is a good man,
half southern, and we OF the
south ought to be able to trust
him" Those are brave words to
come from the solid south, and
even though they may not be
needed, they will stand in EVIL
dence of better understanding
of the president than has recent
ly been shown. BY such an act
the south could show that it is
no longer sectional but national.

We note that the Washington
correspondent to the State Jour
nal makes the claim that E. II.
Hinshaw, congressman, received
the largest plurality ever given
candidate tor congress in all
the state. In that particularly
we think the correspondent for
the Journal Is mistaken. Hin
shaw's plurality was only 7,705,
while Congressman Kinkaid of
this district, received a plurality
of 8,855, which is 1,l50 greater
plurality than was received by
Mr.. Hinshaw.

1.-The total number of ballots !
cast at the last election was 1911.
If we remember Alright a county |
polling eighteen hundred votes is
entitled to a clerk of the district
court, and such an Office will un-
doubtedly be created in the coun-
ty in the near future. Ord Quiz.
The memory of the Quiz puts
the figures little high as the
law provides for a clerk of the
District court when the vote
reaches 1000 or a population of
5000 but the Legislature made
mistake when it put the figures
so low. AS there are not Offices
enough to go around every coun-
ty takes the first opportunity TO
provide for filling an Office that
the law provides, without stopp-
ing to count the cost. When
the Office of county clerk has
combined in it the Office of Clerk
of the Court and Register of
Deeds the Office is a source of
revenue to the county. In other
words the receipt of fees more
than pay the expense of the
Office and a surplus is turned over
to the county general fund. But
when you take away the fees in
cident 10 the office of the clerk
of the court and Register of
Deeds as done in Custer
county and the salaries of the
principal and deputies are more
than the receipts Of the three
Offices and the county is compell-
ed to make up the deficiency.
Under the present law the depu-
ties of the three Offices receive
81 900 each, besides the 81, SUI,
received by each of the principal.
For the principal and their
deputies it takes So, 500 annually.
The county clerk with a deputy
and three clerks at salary OF
$500 a year would do the work
that is being done by the three
offices in a county with 10000 or
IS, 900 population. This would
leave a surplue of $500 a year
to turn into the general fund
saved from the salaries now paid.
But as the law provides, the
counties that reach the require
ments always have and doubtless
will continue to enforce the Law
at their own detriment financial.
| ~. The only argument in its
favor is that it is more conven'
lent and the work can be done
better when Offices are separated

MEATH THE PAIL or MIGHT.

Earle E. Griggs. in Atlanta Constitution
The orb of night glows large and bright
And the stars CLEAN over all,
And the shifting clouds-like the an
gels shrouds-
Drape down like funeral pail
And the night-sounds make the braye
heart quake
And the soul is lost in fear,
For the world is deep in q dreamless
sleep
And the sounds of the night rise clear.
And crickets sing and fears close cling
And the midnight sounds are drear,
For the world is deep in its restful
sleep
And abroad stalks naught but fear;
The God of earth made the day Tor
mirth
And the night for sleep and rest,
And the hower-sweet dew, it falls anew,
Giving rest to tired earth's breast.
And the cultural frog and the brave
watch dog
And the insects that are hid
And the things that creep in the
swampy deep
And the things which sing unbid
While the moon shines high In the
star-decked sky
And the night sounds rise and swell
Is the hand of God in the tree and
clod
Who doeth all things well

Number Of Horseshoes.
New York Commercial.

New York Commercial
1.-TWO million Kegs, containing 16O,-
600, 900 horseshoes are used annually
in the United States and Canada, APP
proxlmately speaking said S. L. Mar
tin, OF Boston, who represents an iron
concern and was in
New York recently. "That was about
the number used last year, and all the
hue aid cry about rubber shoes and
automobiles is raised In the face of q
constantly increasing sale of horse
shoes. As matter OF fact, the use OF
rubber horseshoes, which is confined
almost altogether to the large cities,
is help to manufacturers. The sale
of the ld-fashioned shoe goes on in
creasing and in addition to that the
manufacturers have an opportunity to
make the steel portion of rubber shoes.
All so called rubber shoes have a rim
of steel in them, and it is usually OF
better metal and gives the manufact-
urers wider berth for profits than the
nld-!ashioned shoe.

SOFT COPE:

Like the running brook, the
red blood that flows through
the veins has to come from
somewhere.
The springs of red blood are
found in the soft core Of the
bones called the marrow and
some say red blood also comes
from the spleen. Healthy bone
marrow and healthy spleen
are full of fat.
SCOTS Emulsion makes new
blood by feeding the bone
marrow and the spleen with
the richest of all fats, the pure
cod liver oil.
For pale school girls and
invalids and for all whose
blood is thin and pale, SCOTS
Emulsion is pleasant and rich
blood food. It not only feeds
the blood-making organs but
gives them strength to do
their proper work.

Test for Trainmen's Eyes.

Columbia Press Post.
"Tests for defective eyesight on all
members OF railroad train crews are
much more severe and frequent than
they were few years ago." remarked
a prominent railway official few days
ago. "The reasons for these tests are
obvious. as the safety OF every moving
train depends mainly upon the clear
ness Of vision of the men having it in
charge. In these tests color blindness
causes the most trouble, and is a con-
slant menace to all trainmen, as the
inability to name correctly the differ
ent colors at glance is followed by
Instant dismissal from the service.
"a peculiar case was brought to
light recently when conductor on my
road was being put through the test.
He had been running a passenger
train for several years, had never met
with an accident, and was deemed one
OF the best men on the road. When
the different colors were put before
him singly he called them correctly at
glance, but when two or more colors
were presented he was wholly unable
to tell one from another. We were
sorry for him, but of course, were fore
ed to let him go.
physicians seem to be unable 70
discover to just what cause this atflict-
ion is due. They claim that some
persons are born with it,..whlle it comes
upon others without warning at any
time OF life, and unless put to the test
the victim will never know that he is
so afflicted

VALUE or SALT;
How it May be Used to Relieve
Various Ills.

Salt cleanses the palate and furred
tongue, and a gargle OF ealt and water
is often efficacious, says Table Talk. A
pinch OF salt on the tongue, followed
ten minutes afterward by drink OF
cold water, often cures sick headache.
Salt hardens gums, makes teeth white
and sweetens the breath.
Cut flowers may be kept fresh by
adding salt to the water. Weak ankles
should be rubbed with "a solution OF
salt water and alcohol. Nose colds,
hay fever and kindred affections may
be much relieved by using fine, dry
salt like snuff. Dyspepsia, heartburn
and Indigestion are relieved by a cup
of hot water in which small spoonful
of salt has been dissolved.
Salt and water will sometimes re-
lieve an unconscious person when hurt
if brandy or other remedies are not at
hand. Hemorrbages from tooth pull
Ing are stopped by filling the mouth
with salt and water. Weak and tired
eyes are refreshed by bathing with
warm water and salt.
Public speakers and many noted
singers use a wash of salt and water
before and after using the voice, as 1t
strengthens the organs of the throat.
Salt rubbed.sinto the scalp occasionally
added to the water in washing prevents
the hair from falling out. Feathers
uncurled by damp weather are quickly
driet by shaking over fire into which
salt has been thrown.
