THE POWER OF STEAM.
Many May See But II Takes Genius to
Realize.

When James Watt saw the steam
causing the kettle lid to jump up and
down he said There must be power In
that steam that it can lift such q
weight
There was.
Millions prior to him had seen the
same phenomenon and regarded 1t as
an unexplained mystery.
Recent scientific research has put its
finger on the cause" OF Dandruff, Fall
ing Hair, and consequent Badness, and
has unearthed a tiny germ which eats
the life from the roots Of human hair.
Newbro's Herpicide destroys this
germ and consequently restores the
hair TO its natural state.

CONGRESSMAN MARTIN was in the
city Fl iday night, leaving Saturday for
the northern part OF the state. He re-
allied that he was in Mr.. CANDLES ter
rltory, but bravely faced the music and
left no doubt in the minds OF any that,
as a result of his contest one or the
other must cease to represent South
Dakota at Washington. We are sorry
this issue has been forced, for, as we
have often declared, we should be glad
to have the state delegation remain as
It Is. However Mr.. Martin has thrown
down the gauntlet and is probably pre-
pared to se satisfied with the result.
He lad only words of appreciation for
the fairness and candor of the CoUR-
IERs treatment OF his candidacy.

Is rather hard wheat of fine milling
Iqualities, not quite as hardy as rye, bui
nearly so; yields from forty bushels ar
acre down, stands up we'll, and will
walt week for the farmer to cut II
without shatteripg. This is the meth.
cd farmers should adopt who have moi
learned TO harvest their corn and thus
make full use Of their crop.
An easier ard much more economical
method is 10 commence year in adj
vance, manure q piece of clover or blue
grass sod, plo~ 1t under in the fall or
early in the spring, prepare an ideal
seed bed for corn, cultivate the corn as
thoroughly as possible, selecting va
riety that will mature without fail
about the 10Th OF September. Harvest
1t, and then take disk drill and drill
| in Turkish Red wheat at the rate of
about bushel and peck to the acre
on the corn stubble without prepara-
tion, unless there should be an excep-
tionally vigorous growth of foxtail or
unless the ground should be so out
physical condition that disking will be
necessary. Ordinarily, however. the
best way is to take the disk drill and
drill in yonr wheat. A good sharp disk
drill will cut through quite rank
growth of weeds and secure proper ger
mination. Under these conditions the
weeds will do no damage, but be rather
a benefit in forming mulch for the
young wheat crop.
We have followed this method on our
own farm for number of years. The
beauty OF this system is that your crop
costs you only the seed and the drilling
until u Is ready TO cut, or not toexceed,
even with the high price of seed this
year, 1925 per acre. One dollar will
put in shock, ten cents bushel will
thrash and market it, Tween
~ bushels would be a rather
low average for winter wheat in
this section, and therefore the labor
cost would be about twenty.six cents
per bushel. Counting the labor as
hall you can grow winter wheat in
the section indicated on we'll drained
land In good heart for between fifty and
sixty cents u bushel.
We would not grow more than one
crop OF winter wheat, but would seed
down to timothy and clover, narrowing
1t in on the wheat as soon as the ground
was inlgood working condition, which
is usually from the lst to the 10th OF
April: Winter wheat is taken off ia
that section from the Goth OF June to
the 4tn of July, and hence makes an
almost ideal nurse crop for clover and
timothy. This is the rotation we have
adopted on our farm near Des Moines.
Others have followed our example. and
we don't believe that it can be i'm
proved for that section. Our readers
will understand that we are not talk.
Ing theory in this matter, but base our
suggestions on ten years experience.

VALLEY ITEMS.
From the Echo.

The residence OF Mrs Eva Walker,
widow of the late John @. Walker
was totally destroyed by fire last
night at about Z 80 O'Clock, which
appeared to have started in ward
robe OF closet or some part of the
front of the building. Mrs Walker,
three of her daughters, and one of
her sons were, at the time, In the
kitchen, and were hcrrified at the dis
covery of fire. The sleeping apart
ments and all the front of the house
we're mass of flames, which quickly
enveloped the remainder OF the
building and drove the family out
into the chill of merciless lain
without wraps.
Mr. Fremont Fassett, who had seen
the fierce red glow IN the sky, hurried
to the scene with other neighbors,
but says it was too late; clothing,
furniture, nearly everything gone.
The little twin boys were even with
out coats and the girls had lost all
their clothing save what they wore.
The John Abbott house to the lett
of the Jackson road, above town. was
destroyed by fire at about 2 O'Clock
this morning, and it is reported that
Mr. Abbott lost every thing in it. He
was in town this morning, and in a
good humor for man about 80 years
old.
Creditors of F. G. Ackert the livery

from here about two weeks ago and
his business affairs were left ID
very unsatisfactory condition, hence
the action of his creditors. Further
Developments may place matters in
better light. However, there are
many who seem to regret Mr. Ackert's
departure.

DOGS USED AS coNsTABLEs
Canine Police Force of Belgium Is No
Doubt the Latest Innovation in
Employment Of Animals.

Most of US have heard of the
dogs employed in a continental
armies, "the dogs of war;" as they
have been called. AS scouts and
sentinels dogs are, of course, in.
valuable.
Belgium, however, has recently
gone a step further by employing
dogs in its police force. These an.
imals are taught by means OF
dummy figures made up to resem.
BILE as much as possible the thieves
and dangerous characters they
are likely to meet. Needless to
say, an immense amount of care
and patience is needed in training
of this kind. But the dog detec.
tives are very intelligent, and
when thoroughly trained rarely
make mistake.
When attacking a wrongdoer
they speedily drag him to earth,
after which they molest him no
further, unless he attempts to es'
cape, in which case he is likely to
be badly mauled.
The dogs wear steel spiked col
lars, to which are attached official
badges. In addition, each is pro.
yided with a little brown water.
proof coat for use on stormy
nights. Each dog accompanies
a policeman on his nightly rounds,
and walks the regular beat with
him.
The crime in the particular dis.
tricts patrolled by the dogs is said
to have shown marked decrease
since the advent of the canine con,
stable.

States was recently commenced at

was organized at junction City in
1901 and which has been there ever
since, staI ted overland tor Fort
Douglas, Utah, distance of over
l, ,2OO miles, says a junction City
correspondent of the Kansas City
journal. The battery is commanded
by Captain j. G. W. Brook. 1t will
follow the Union Pacific railroad
from Junction City to Odgen, Utah.
The equipment that will be taken
across the country consists of the new
rapid fire field guns, with which
twelve of the batteries in the service
have very recently been equipped.
Ihe men have drawn heavy clothing
and are prepared for the winters g

Farm Coming Back to It's Own.

Things on the farm are changing, and
we already observe, If we watch the bar

dency to get back to the country. Fiji
teen years ago, for instance, less than
so per cent Of the population were NOV
ing countryward; in 1900 the statistics
show that 10 per cent we're seeking out
homes in rural districts, and it is likely
that the population now going away
from the city reaches rs per cent. At
last, with Solomon, they are discovering
that "all is vanity" in the cities; that
friendships are difficult, that neighbors

ate stage all the time. The telephone,

REAL ENGLISH HOUSEHOLD.
A Kind Of Domestic Service That Is
Passing Out Of Vogue
Rapidly.

The old English household, it
seems, will soon be a thing of the
past, says Goldwin Smith, in the
Independent. The writer remem-
bers one in England a good many
years ago in which there were
five servants whose united terms
of service in that family were
about 230 years. They were thor
oughly attached to that which
was their home almost as much as
it was the home of their master
and mistress, careful of it's inter
ests, never letting anything which
they could do for it themselves be
done elsewhere, jealous for its
hospitable name and honor.
When the household was broken
up by the deaths of it's master and
mistress they took their pension
and went into no other service.
They were simple people, little ed
ucated, with vision pretty much
bounded by the limits of the coun-
try parish in which the house
stood, entirely free from the demo-
cratic idea and from the slightest
suspicion that there could be any
thing degrading in domestic serv-
ice. Their manners, however,
were perfectly good. The coach
man, after serving so years, had a
fit on the driving box. He was Of
fered his full wages as a pension,
his house and command of his sta
BILE if he would give up the reins.
But his answer was that if he
ceased to drive the family he would
die and the medical man thought
he would. He could not read or
write, but he was an excellent
servant, very kind to his beasts,
nor was he without sentiment.
When his mistress was dying he
sent her up a rose as his farewell.
On the other hand, the master
and mistress lived at home almost
all the year round, looking care
fully after their household, and
the servants were regarded as
members of the family, not mere
help, and were duly remembered
in the will.
This phase of life seems to be
now passing away even in rural
England. 1t is being numbered
with the thatched cottage, the
mail coach, the country inn, the
line of reapers with their sickles
and the women following to bind
the sheaves, to the sound of the
fail in the autumn air. Even rural
society in England has been, un-
dergoing a great change.
