EXECUTION VERSUS THEORY.
Success in any department of life ID
not only dependent upon good resolu'
ton, but right action-that is to say
1t is just as essential to execute wise
ly as to plan wisely. Many a business
man has failed because he did not have
the power to execute. That is why we
have so many financial graveyards
around doomed towns and cities today.
Men We're theorists, not practical

CHRISTIANITY AS FRIENDS
SEE IT.
These two truths-the goodness of
God and the efficacy of love-and the
earnest endeavor to live by the light
of these truths as 1t becomes mani

Friends see it: a religion not merely
to believe in, but a religion above all

Quaker, Washington.
HOW TO GROW.

US that the seed must make selec'

amount of earth acids, and so, too, men
must select in order to have a strong.

self some of natures influences. Some
one has said: my heart leaps when
behold the rainbow in the sky. So was
it when my life began; so be it when
am a man. Another influence is
that which comes from associating
with people. Strength of character
comes by plunging into the stream of
life. You build talent in the quiet, but
character in the streams of the world,
and we want an interest in our fell
low men. And thirdly. we need the in
fluence we get from friends. Those
men who go up and down the thor
oughfares of our city and are no more
to each other than passing flies on the
wall are losing something that is
strengthening. For lack of friends a
man grows morose, pathetic mean
real friends, the friend who will laugh
at you in your face if it will do you
good and fight for you behind your
back If necessary. A friend to whom
you can get SO close that you will find
yourself growing deeper and deeper
into each others lives as the years
pass. I believe the psalmist meant
that when he said, 1--WE have taken
sweet counsel together" We need the
influence that comes from God him
self, in whom we live and move and
have our being. We want to have
God "closer than breathing and near
er than hands and feet" and we get
God into our own lives by prayer and
meditation. These are the things we
must seek to take into our lives. If we
do that we can leave the rest with
God, for he cares for us.-Rev. Louis

Mcdonald of Ames, secretary of the

peal to the rural carriers at their con-
Guiding session yesterday for assist
ance in the good roads movement. He
said that the commission is looking to
the rural carriers to stir up interest
in the work Of improving the country

the provisions of the new road drag
law and the wide tire law, and asked
the carriers to use their influence with
the township trustees and farmers to
have them take advantage of these
laws, which are bound to make for bet
ter roads.
The road drag law as explained by
Mr.. Mcdonald provides that the trus-
tees may pay not to exceed so cents
per mile for having the roads dragged.
The law fixes the maximum amount
that can be expended on mile during
one year al SIS. The farmers along the
road are given the first opportunity to
Go the work.

mated Butcher cattle We're in better
tone than yesterday, tho prices were

The few lots of good weight we'll

Demand for these has exceeded sup
plies for the past week and more could
be used at good prices. but conditions
governing trade for plain and medium
feeders do not show Improvement over
earlier days this week.
Plain grade mixed steers are nara
sellers, altho not particularly lower.
Common light kinds meet very slow
sale and there Is also a dull market for
low grade light stockers. Eastern buy
ers want these kinds at cheap prices
and few bids ranged above So.
Hogs.
Hogs We're 10 to 10 cents lower.
Lights were in best request but packers
were extremely slow to take, hold. The
quality of the ruiz was poor generally.
Evidence is not lacking in stock yard
circles that the country Is short OF
choice hogs of shipping quality. There
is no scarcity of grass widows, how
ever. Supply this week is carrying
an excessive proportion of big shabby
sows. many of them being sadly short
of feed. They are being sent IN as
fast as their pigs are weaned to save
corn, and If they continue to come
as freely considerably less money Will
be realized on them Choice hogs are
so scarce tina: shippers are unable to
fill their orders. Shippers cannot use
porcine trash and packers do not like
it. as the meat shrinks seriously during
the curing process. If the run contin-
ues to carry such small proportion of
shipping hogs a much wider spread in
values is assured Every bulge in corn
will be an incentive to cash In these
big sows which fatten slowly and con-
sumo as much corn as a steer.
