HAPPY HOMES

There is no grander word in all the
world, in all the languages written among
men than that one word, home And
vet how many of us fail to appreciate its
meaning. We ask ourselves the question,
"What is the first thing We must do in
order to make the home happy?''
Christ has set the example before us
how we should live and if we follow him
closely he will lead us into the pathways
of blessings and peace. As Christ set the
example for us SO ought the parents to do
the same for their children, and train
them up in the way they should go. We
can find no reason why every home in
this broad land should not be made tn
feel happy which possesses loving Chris
tian parents. The future happiness lies
within the parents hands and it is sure
to be just what tkey make it. Where a
parent exercises his authority like gra-
cious sovereign, and the children yield a
glad and loyal obedience, there is sure to
be peaceful, happy home. But, ON the
other hand when the parents are cross
and never ready to speak any kind words
to those around them there will very lit
tie happiness prevail.
The joy OF each household may be con-
siderably increased by each member being
taught that he has something to do to
make the home more joyous, not how
little he can do but how much. From
the parent down to the youngest child
there is something that each one can do
to gladden. and beautify the home. 1t is
wise to teach the children very early that
they are for the home as well as the home
for them, and that it is their duty and
should be their JOY to show their appre-
citation OF home by adding to its bright
ness and increasing its delights. Every
member of the family ought SO to live in
the family that his absence will be sorely
felt--a chord missed from the music, a
link gone from the chain.

TROUBLES EVERYWHERE

''Never trouble trouble until trouble
troubles you'' is a very good rule to prac-
tice. Trouble comes unsolicited to every
body, and who is there who is sane that
has not his share of trouble. The simple
minded person for whom so many have
SO much pity seems as free from trouble
as it is possible for human being to be,
and yet we would not care to exchange
places with such one There is no oc-
cupation or business that can be engaged
in that is free from trouble. The farmer
has his trouble and disappointments.
His. best horse or COW dies, his field of
grain is leveled in the storm that comes
without moments warning, drouths or
floods come and blast his hopes for an
abundant crop. Trouble is not by any
means confined alone to the farmer, for
the merchant has his trials. The grocery
bears heavy loss ON account of perishable
fruits and vegetables. Moths infest the
dry goods merchant and ere he is aware
he sustains great loss from the ravages
of these little insects. The hardware
dealer invests large sums of money in
stoves and other expensive goods that
he can not sell readily. The money
loaner fears the reliability of the security
offered by the borrower and the miser is
in constant fear that he may be visited
by burglars. Trouble is on every hand
in all lines of business.

THE FARM GARDEN AND DAIRY
Little Paragraphs That will Interest Every
Member of the Household.

On an average a mule colt is more
easily broken than horse colt.
| No sense in packing a lot of highgrade
feed into low-grade animals.
The mule colt at weaning time should
be twelve hands high, or more.
Agriculture, unlike any other business,
fourishes best the more you run it into
the ground:
And by analogy-If it pays to be kind
to cow, will it not pay to be kind to
horse or dog-or even human being?
A farmer who has smart girls has no
trouble to get hired men, but he may
have difficulty getting much work ont of
them.
Folks used to make one cow tramp all
over five-acre lot to get enough to live
on. Now they are working to make one
acre support five cows and some farmers
are doing very well at it.
Tis figured that American farmers are
feeding 1000 tons of Paris green to insects
each season.
Now we know what inventors of "won-
derful new churning processes" use to
make milk produce "double the amount
OF butter" They use rennet, and make
pot cheese Rural New Yorker.
Take off your hat to the man who says
to the boys and the hired men, 'sWe
will talk down here in the stable Just as
We do up in the sitting -room." That
man knows where he is and what he is
doing.
One pound day more of milk from a
herd of twenty cows means another pound
OF butter. Worth working for? Who of
us can afford to throw, away three hun
dred and sixty-fve pounds of butter
every year.
Any kind of man can farm in some kind
OF way, but only the right man can farm
in the right way. The farmer needs to
be scholar, and if he understands his
occupation, he will be a scholar in spite
of himself.
All horses are born either right or left
handed, sothat every one of them has a
preference for the foot that will prove
most comfortable for him to use in lead
ing out. It's found that the stronger side
is the favorite one, every time
Did you ever think that when cream
comes to the top it brings all the impuri-
ties that were in the milk up with it?
That being so nobody can keep the i'm
purities out of the butter when they get
that far. So, if we want clean butter we
must keep the milk pure.
We often see it advertised to spur the
colts to make them walk fast. But it
makes difference whether or not your
colt has in him to walk fast. You can
not make fast walker out of horse
that has naturally slow gait. Might as
we'll try to make bird dog of poodle.
Good walkers are bred, not made over
after they are born.

HICKS FORECASTS FOR SEPTEMBER

The last storm disturbances in August
promise to reach into the first day Of
September. On and touching Friday the
lst, do not be surprised to see or hear oi
a crisis in the elements-rain, wind and
thunder, with equinoctia tempests in the
south coast regions very probable. The
disturbances at this time, will, in all
probability, be prolonged in cloudy,
threatening and. possibly stormy wealth
er, up to and through the Sd, 4th and
5th. Change to rising barometer, wes-
terly winds and clearing, cool weather
will touch most parts about the 5th to
7th.
The regular Vulcan storm period CEN
trail on the 9th, will be felt as early as the
9TH or 9Th, in falling barometer, change
to warmer and growing cloudiness in wes-
tern sections. AS these conditions in
crease and advance eastward over the
country. storms of wind, rain and thun-
der will visit most localities about Satur-
day the 9th to Monday the l1th
The 18th to 18th are reactionary storm
DAYS. We therefore look for decided
storm conditions to continue over these
dates. This is period of probable tidal
wave and heavy equinoctural storms in
the south. One of the most probable
earthquake periods in September will be
central on the 18th extending "a and SO
hours before and after that day. A
marked change to high barometer, wes-
terly gales and much cooler will almost
certainly follow general and severe storms
at this time. Frosts in many localities,
especially northward, between the 18th
and 10Th, may reasonably be expected.
The next regular storm period is cen.
trail oil the 2lst. Threatening storm
clouds, with rain, wind and thunder, the
crisis falling ON the 2lst to 23d, progres.
sively from west to east. Another high
barometer and change to decidedly cooler
will come in from the northwest close be-
hind these storms.
The 9th, and Goth are reactionary
storm days not far from the center of the
aptumnal equinox, and with the moon at
new and on the celestial equator on the
2Sth, and in perigee, or nearest the earth,
on the 10Th we predict that within the
period embraced between 9th and Satur.
day the 30th, many wide sweeping and
violent storms will visit various parts oi
sea and land all round tine earth.

PIONEER MINING TOWN
TAKES ON NEW LIFE
kerby Gaining in Population En-
larses School-New Build
ins for Next Year

Kerby, the old pioneer mining town
that has held its own and no more in
the 40 years since it ceased to be a
booming mining camp, has taken on
new life and is growing this year in a
manner that gives the assurance that
it will become one of the most pros
porous towns in Southern Oregon.
More than a dozen families have
moved to Kerby since last spring and
several new residences have been puilt
and number of old ones repaired
and rsmodeled. A new store has been
opened and the other business houses
have enlarged their stock.
Heretofore for years past single
room school and one teacher has
sufficed to meet the educational needs
of the town. With the opening of
school this fall so large was the at
tendance that second teacher was
employed and a room re nted to enable
the school to be- divided and proper
accommodation given the scholars.
The eighth grade has been the highest
work heretofore done in the scho OIL
but more advanced studies being
requested by the patrons of tue
school, who did not wish to longer
send their children away to attend a
higher school, the board has decided
to add the ninth grade for the re-
mainder of this year. With next year
it is the plan to add the tenth grade
aud to make the Kerby school equal
to the best in Josephine comfy.
In anticipation of the rapid growth
that Kerby is sure to have by reason
of the big development that is being
made in the copper and gold mines,
and in the farming and timber re-
sources of the Illinois Valley. together
W ith the certainty of having railroad
communications with tue outside
world by the Grants Pass and Cres-
cent City line, it is the plan of the
citizens OF the district to erect new
school building next. year: If that

teachers will take advantage of these
holidays to attend the football game,

the strength Of the chain is as the

strength and thoroughness of the

near future steps may be taken to

Supt. Turner report does not include
the new loom added to the city
schools, which was opened Wednesday
Of last week and which new has an
enrolment of 35 scholars. These
scholars, though, are included in the
enrollmt Mt OF the rooms they attended
during October. The total enroll
ment which is given above as 769,
was made for the last Friday in Octo-
Der, and in the two weeks since there
has been number of new scholars
admitted to the school. There is
every reason to expect that the en-.
rollment in the Grants Pass schools
will have passed the 500 mark by the
middle of the present time. That
will put the rooms in as crowded con-
dition as they were before the ad-
ditional room was rented last week to
relieve the pressure.
With the now certainty that Grants
Pass will have greater growth next
year than heretofore had, it is
evident that at least three more
rooms will have to BIZ provided for.

There is only one way 10 cure deaf-

when it is entirely closed Deafness

ever she goes she finds great interest
among the Grand Army men and the
ladies of the Relief Corps in the next
encampment. Very few Of the men,
bers of the two organizations, residing
in the northern and eastern parts of
the state, have ever been in Rogue
River Valley and they are anxious to
see the land of golden apples, luscious
peaches, juicy grapes, red meated
melons, golden corn, fat porkers and
yellow. legged chickens and of people
whose hospitality is as liberal as their
country is bountifuI. Mrs. Harding
took especial note OF the aocommo-
dations of Grants Pass for caring for
a large gathering of people, and she
was free to state that il had more
ing houses than any other town of its
size in Oregon. While large num-
Der of tents will be provided for the
use of those attending tho encamp-
ment, yet there will be many who
would prefer to so to a hotel or q
boarding house. Mrs. Harding was
confident that all such would find
ample accommodation and she was
assured that the price would he made
reasonable.
Wednesday morning Mrs Harding
left for Roseburg where she is to
meet Governor Chamberlain to con-
Ter with him in regard to the fur.
nishing Of the cottages that have
been lately built at the Soldiers Home
tor the use of old soldiers and their
wives. The cost of erecting these
cottages was provided for in an ap-
propriation by the last legislature,
and the various Relief Corps Of the
state have, underta to furnish them
ready for occupancy. 1t is quite an
undertaking but the ladies expect to
accomplish Ii with the generous as
sistance they expect to have from the
patriotic citizens Of the state. There
are many old soldiers on whom fate
has been hard, who have faithful old
wives who would be left helpless on
the world. were they TO seek the
she elter of the Soldiers Home. Hereto
fore no provision has been made at the
Home for the wives of inmates and to
separate the old soldiers from the
companions Of their life was most
try ing thing to do. and IL often left
the aged wife helpless and alone ii
the world, or on the charity of rela-
tiyes, which is 70 often extremely
ungrateiul. Thete cottages will
afford comfortable homes for these
old couples and the cost for accommo-
dations for the old soldiers will be no
greater, or but little mtre than they
would cost If the state bearded them
in the general quarters, ior they and
their wives will usually be able to do
their own housework and their pension
