by DR.. Evans that many or the minis

On that plan. we can't send our boys

we can pay. 1t Will not do to say That
the schools of other denominations arc

schools Of our own church and are forced
to send our boys and girls to other

FROM THE ASHES
Baltimore Family's Experienced Points
Moral to Residents of Lancaster

The visitor to Baltimore today
scarelyI realizes that less than year
ago the city was almost destroyed by
memorable fire. A similar compar-
ison might be made by George w.
Nally, one of the leading citizens of
looks.
A short time ago. Mr.. Nally, writ
ing from his home address, 2213 Bar
clay ST., says IL have been troubled
for years with catarrh and had resort
ed to all remedies that could be
thought of. My wife was also afflicted
with this terrible disease, but all the
treatments we used were an absolute
failure until we tried Hyomei. 1t
worked like charm and has made a
complete cure in both of our cases.
There is no disagreeable stomach dos
ing In using Hyomei. We breathed it,
and it's fragrance, SO clean, pure and
bracing, killed all the catarrhal germs
in the head, throat, and lungs.
The experience of Mr.. Nally and his
wife certainly points a moral to all
readers of the Herald who are suffer
ing from catarrh. 1t shows how they
can be cured of this frightful disease,
without dangerous stomach dosing.
j. T. Bennett the local agent for
Hyomei, has SO much faith in the
treatment that they give their personal
guarantee to refund the money in case
it does not benefit. A complete outfit
costs one dollar. the extra bottles are
but fifty Genus. Ask to see the strong
guarantee under which Hyomei is
sold.

The Husbands Judgement Best

Husband and wife often disagree
about some matter that concerns each
other and frequently the husband finds
that his wife's judgment is the best.
The case of Mr.. John w. Young of Lin
coin, ILL.,, however, is an exception, he
says: "My wife and | both had a Sc
we're cold and we decided to get some
kind of medicine. bought myself a
bottle of Harris Honey and Horehound
and, taking it as directed, was we'll in
a short time. She wanted another
kind and with the result that she still
has a bad cough. I advised her to
take Harris Honey and Horehound and
think she will have to do so if she gets
we'll this winter" Harris Honey and
Horehound is sold by j. T. Bennett in
25c, SOC and $1.0O bottles.

How Demand Is Created Abroad.

One of the latest instances of Amer
lean enterprise, in educating the peo-
pie of foreign countries in the use OF
products from this side Of the water, is
found at Omsk, Russia, where an
American firm which manufactures
farm machinery has decided to open
a technical school, where persons will
be trained to use agricultural imple-
ments of the modern type and to in
struct farmers in their use. The firm
found that the lack of knowledge
among the people was the greatest
drawback to the development OF the
trade in that region.

From One Who Knows.

The following statement from Mr..
j. H. Heald, Phi. G., and manager of
the Economical Drug Store, Lincoln,
ILL.,, will be of interest to readers in
this locality. He says: 81 have known
and sold Harris Honey and Horehound
for several years and believe it to be
one of the best cough preparations on
the market. 1t is very pleasant to
take, without any of the nauseating
effects common to some, and has many
friends wherever it is used" AS a

Honey and Horehound is unquestiona-
bly, the best that can be secured. 1t

A GOOD ROADS ARGUMENT.
What the Good Road Saves In Horse
flesh, Time and Breakage.

What the Good Road Saves In Horse
flesh, Time and Breakage.
Local papers printed near New York
often contain items like the following:
"John Smith, our popular truckman,
has abandoned his trucking business
for the summer and taken his horses
to the Hudson road. John says there
is twice the money to be made hauling
farmers wagons up the hill or over the
swamps." The facts are that hundreds
of farm wagons travel every night on
the road to New York. They are load
ed down with sweet corn, tomatoes,
lima beans and similar perishable
goods. Parts of the road are smooth
and hard. Other portions are soft or
stony and steep. The size of the load
is determined by the poor places in the
road, not by the firm, level tracks
Two horses may be able to haul load
worth $50 over a smooth road, while
the same team would struggle to haul
$50 worth over the worst places. This
might not make so much difference
with crops like hay, grain and potatoes,
for they can usually be held until the
roads are at their best The green
produce cannot wait. 1t must be hauled
when it is ready or be wasted Thus
even though the stretch Of bad roads
covers only 5 per cent Of the total dis
tance the farmer must keep an extra
horse, leave part of his load behind Or
hire some one to help him over the
bad places. Dozens of men with teams
find great profit in doing the work.
sometimes earning half dollar for a
few hundred feet of hauling We have
known farmers to ridicule the figures
given to show the cost of bad roads,
That is because they do not realize
what the good road would save in
horsefesh, time and breakage-Rural

High Pressure Dairying.

The tendency is somewhat toward
high pressure dairying in regions
where the milk market is unlimited
and pasturage scanty. Under certain
conditions it may pay better to wear a
cow out quickly and buy another rath-
er than to continue her through long
er time at a lower rate of production.
The plan is somewhat distasteful to
the old time dairyman, who likes to
see his cattle living in a more natural
manner and remaining with him year
after year. But this is q. high pressure
age and wears out animals and men
alike with its hard but fascinating
pace. remarks American Cultivator.

ROLLED ROAD OF SMOOTH, FIRM SURFACE.
these points are equal in volume to the
solid particles, and as a result the
earth will absorb almost an equal por-
ton of water.
In building or maintaining roads it is
therefore desirable that these small
particles be pressed and packed into as
small space as possible in order that
surplus water may not pass in and de-
stroy the stability of the road. To this
end rolling is very beneficial. The work
of maintaining earth roads will be
greatly lessened by the proper use Of
the roller.
After additional matter has been
placed on the surface of the road it
should be carefully rolled and not al
lowed to wash off into the ditch. If the
earth is left loose wheels will cut in
and result in ridges and burrows,
which will hold water and result in a
sticky, muddy surface in winter wealth
er and a dusty one in dry weather. If

roller it can usually be made sufficient
~ firm to sustain teams without deep
rutting and to resist in large measure
the penetrating power of the water.
Such work should be done when the
soil is in plastic state, so that it will
pack readily. The moist particles are
pressed together, and the road is put in

THINKS WELL OF DICKINSON AND PAYS
Handsome Compliment to Father
R6bsteinek.

Last week the German Westlicher
Herold of Winona, Mimi, printed an
article on Dickinson and its German
residents, extracts of which, translated
into English, read as follows:
Dickinson has during the past few
years spread out very rapidly on the
south side and the prairie is dotted with
numberless pretty stone or white dwell
ing houses which have been built BY
industrious and persevering German
immigrants from Russia and Hungary.
A magnificent brick church with a no:
water plant, the property of the German
| Catholic community, with two schools
in the basement, has been built this year
in this German settlement, which is not
only a great honor to the community but
! also to the energy and executive ability
! of Father Rabstienek. 1t is a splendid
! building which excites admiration at the
| first glance and whose interior furnish.
ing is practical, comfortable and
| beautiful.
"The crop was light this year and the
cattle market was SO depressed that the
| ranchers are feeling a little discouraged
and this has notably had a bad effect
upon business in general, yet Dickinson
has a good location and will in time be-
come a considerable business point.
"Indeed throughout the entire
community the greatest good fell
lowship prevails and every stranger al
once feels at home.
Dickinson will probably have a U. S
land office; which will be of great advan
tage to the city"

THE St. Paul Globe defends
North Dakota's demand for a full
share of the government work ir
national irrigation. In Nevada
where two million are to be spent
on one reservoir, there are not
enough people to make a city Of
the fourth class. In Arizona the
immense sums to be expended are
of problematical benefit only.
There is no need of calling the
claim of North Dakota "a graft

FROM all parts of the state
comes the cry of a scarcity of
teachers for the public schools and
in not a few instances children are
deprived of school privileges. And
what is the remedy? To lower
the grade of teachers certificate
requirements and let any body
who can read and write and a lit
tie more teach school? By no
means. Pay living wages. The
average wages paid now is $40
per month for seven months. Fig
ure out of this board, washing,
clothes, books, expenses to and
from home at least-and unless
she can live on her relatives or
visit her friends the remaining
five months, the teacher cannot
make both ends meet. The scrub
woman and the common ranch
hand who cannot read and write
can save more money for they are
paid for twelve months in a year
and the expense for clothing is
not so great. Other fields are
open to young ladies. They can
secure work for twelve months in
a year as bookkeepers, stenogra-
pliers, clerks, etc. at the same wa
ges per month they now get teach
ing, or they a go to states where
teachers are better paid. And
they r going away. Superin-
tendent Stoekwell says there will
never be teachers enough in the
state until wages r raised. He
sees in the increase of the state
tuition fund a solution of the
problem and says that at least SIC
per month can be added to every
teachers salary. The require
ments as to qualification of teach
ers is none too high but we cannot
require and keep the best teacher:
unless the wages paid correspond
to the requirements. Good teach
ers usually prefer at least two
years in a place. Were it not fol
this we might have to change
teachers oftener. The aentimen,
of this and every other communits
should support the school boards
in paying better salaries to higi
grade teachers.
