A writer in the Dakota Farmer
gives the dairyman the following lift:
'Its the mich cows inning now. For
the past five years the mich COW has
had hard sleddin''.' She has been
Obliged to compete for the farmers
favor against 6-cent hogs and scent
beef steers. She is the one to whom
many a hard pressed farmer is now
looking for relief. 1t IS the man be-
hind the cow who knows on which
side his bread is buttered these days.:
In another column will be found a
small advertisement Of the Wabash
railway. The Wabash is the only line
with It's own station at the main en-
trance Of the Worlds Fair grounds,
and the suburban service Of the Wa
bash will be able to handle $4,000
people per hour, between the Union
station at st. Louis and the fair
grounds. Keep this in mind when
you go to st. Louis and buy your tick
cts of your local agent via the Wa.

White Lake Standard: 1t begins
to look like a goodly portion of Kim
ball would become citizens of White
Lake this spring. Mrs. W. Fl. Cross
was down last Saturday in search of a
house to live in, and SAID that she was
going to move her family here about
the first of March. The Cross family,
the Perkins family, the Husman fam
lily, the Clements family, and the edi-
tors family will make quite a colony
OF Kimballites. Let more OF them
come. They couldn't move to a better
town.
r. ]. Perkins bid his friends good
bye who happened to be at the station
Monday morning and went to White
Lake. We hope the people of our
neighborlng town will be good to
Dick. Folks here think lots of him,
and a good many Of us will miss his
Skill when a machine gets cranky
whether it's the housewives sewing
machine or a muleish gasoline ma
chine. Well miss his geniality, too.
Dick and Will have the best wishes of
a multitude of Kimball friends for
success with their blacksmith and
machine business at White Lake.

has become quite a task. The money
so raised was left in the hands Of ]. T.

the purpose. These gentlemen Tues
day made a purchase of a Smith-Pre-
mier machine from Brown & Saenger
which has been sent to the home.
Clear Lake Courier: The young
people Of the country are actually
playing card games at the church en-
tertainments. They don't,play whist.
Oh, no! That would be wicked. For
we have been taught that if there is
any n thing that his satanic majesty
delights in is to see young %innocents
playing with spotted cards. But as
long as the cards are covered with.
printing instead spades, diamonds, etc.
and the game is finch instead of clnch
all concerned are happy. In Water
town they play these new card games in
the basement of the NJ. E. church, and
it is said the young people are de-
lighted and the deacons sleep sound
ly.
The Masquerade Last Night
Something like seventy-five young
people from town and country, with
as many or more spectators, danced in
costume to the bewitching strains of
Hoyts' orchestra Of Sioux Falls at the
opera-house lastnight. Exactly sixty
four were IN the grand march at IL o.
clock, when all anmasked. There
were some very pretty costumes, with
