the Companys service. Again, the
young man who came to this country
over thirty years ago, penniless and
| friendless, and who, during the first two
years, earned only 5000, working beside
a tank foul with the smell of oil but
to-day, there is scarcely a drop of oil
consumed in this country which has not
been purchased from his stupendous
| organization, the Standard Oil Company.
In another walk of life, we see at the
head of great college, man who
chopped wood to pay his way through
school
The great captains of industry of to-
day were the poor boys of thirty years
ago. It was not wealthy parent nor an
influential friend who started these men
on the road to fortune; they made their
own opportunities they fought their own
battles; they have won.
What is the secret of their success |?
What is that irresistible force which has
enabled them to overcome all obstacles,
to surpass their fellow-1nen? Every am
e1t1ous young man is searching for this
secret. He believes that honesty, So
briefly, perseverance, and determination
are essentials in the foundation on which
to build successful career, and vet he
realizes that he must possess something
more than these mere prerequisites if he
would achieve conspicuous success d
Those who have studied the lives of
successful men will tell you that they all
possessed certain force of character
the power to mould the opinions and
direct the actions of others. John D.
Rockefeller has often said that he at
tributes his success largely to his ability
to influence and control the minds of
men. How to acquire that power is told
by Mr.. Edward Box in his Lecture, ''Keys
to Success, y the most inspiring address to
young men ever heard from an American
platform. Mr.. Box does not preach
theory he gives good, sound, p-actical
advice. He tells young men
they can develop those quail
pensable to success, and win both money
and power. Every word is suggestive
and inspiring.
The Publishers of this Lecture, Iohn

Cleanliness in buttermaking must

A number Of dairymen pay no atten-
ton to the calf because they reason
that it will not pay to raise 1t, says
Farm and Live Stock Journal. They
can get more money out of the milk
than by using it to raise the calf. But
others find the business of calf raising
profitable and have from six to dozen
head to sell every year. They make
butter and by using a hand separator
get the skinned milk in good shape
for feeding. To make up for the fat
taken out of the milk by the separator
a little oatmeal or oil meal is mixed
with the separated milk and fed to the
calves, increasing the quantity gradu-
ally, and giving them some clover hay
to pick over as soon as they show any
disposition to eat it. In this way the
cost of raising a calf is not at all
heavy, and they will sell if put in good
condition for to 6 cents per pound
when whole milk calves are bringing
from 61a to Z cents.

Hudson Hudsonitc: Clate Tinan
of the KIMBALL GRAPHIC is certainly
a busy man. Not only does he edit
one of the best papers in the entire

has compiled, written up and put in
to readable shape the 'Know Your
Own State" ilonE and last week APP
pcarcd that handsome Argus.Leadcr
supplement- and Of course Bro. Tinan
did the fine descriptive writing for it.
He also did the thinking to get the
matter for these two publications,
but that doesn't count. a newspaper
man is supposed to think anyway,
when he hasn't got anything else to
do. Besides this Mr.. Tinan is con-
Quoting the Mitchell capital cam
paign, Il clean fought battle, gentle
manly and generous on his Side,. and
is also president of the South Dakota
Press association and he is filling that
position of honor worthily and ener-
getically. He is one of the veteran
editors OF the state having been edi-
tor of the GRAPHIC for % years and
his hustling procliYities are such that
they would put most of US younger
fellows to shame. He is a successful
newspaper man but continual hustl-
ing and hard work did it.

Death Of a fine Mare

Brule cou:lv road. She was shot

owner the past three years, and
though he paid a nice price for her
when he bought her of c. r. Tinan,
he considers he got value received,
and as She had passed her days of use

selling her and taking chances of hay

years old. was raised by Bob Kneebs,
the celebrated hOrSeman, and brought

Tinan. She was a faithful beast

For thirteen years no other hand
than that which writes these lines
ever drew a rein oyer the handsome
and spirited mare of which the fore
going relates and there was naturally
a bit of heartache to learn of her
demise and no little gratitude to Mr..
Stoweli for his human action. If
money could have given the mare the
care she deserved or anything but a
great personal sacrifice of time she
would have never been sold. In Mr..
Stowcll was found a mar after our
own heart and at less than o%ne-fourih

Don't knock Turner county by vot-

when you can vote it within so miles.
Don't knock your taxes by voting

official travel upon the state and 9th

Don't knock every lawyer or liti-
CANT by forcing him or them to
waste much time and money to go to
a supreme court sitting in "the cat
tie country" The capital should be
near the people, not the range cattle,
for the range cattle care nothing for
1t, while the people do. Give it to
the people.
Don't knock your own town, or
county, or state, don't knock yourself,
by voting the capital far away, for an
