GRAND FREE BALL
AND SUPPER
Lay Aside Your Worries
and Troubles for One
Day and Enjoy Yourself
at HoIbrook on the 4th
of July

At a meeting held here during
the week it was decided that the
people of Holbrook would all
work together to give one of the
best 4th of July celebrations that
it was possible for them to pro-
duce. This point settled, a COM
mittee on finances was appointed
consisting of w. F. Williams, H.
Kempenich and w. B. Cross, who
were to make report at the end
of the week. This committee
went to work promptly to inter
view the merchants and citizens
with a view of raising the neces-
sary funds by subscription. At
their report made at the end of
the week the result was so graft
fying that it was decided that
additional committees be named
that they may get to work at
once to perfect arrangements for
the different features of the days
program. 1t is already an as
sured fact that there will not be
a dull hour during the day.
From sunrise when the rocky
mesas near town will tremble
from the bOmbardment by heavy
guns until the grand Illumination
at night there will be something
doing every minute of the time.
We can mention now only a
few of the things that will hap
pen as the program is only par
italy made up, but will be pub
lished complete later on. Com
menclng at 10 a. m. there will be
music by the HolbrC ok Glee Club
who will render the national
hymn-"Star Spangled Banner. "

trod for so many years. Peace

Reasons Why Ancient Riddles Are Bet
ter Than New.
Fabulous prices are sometimes paid
for old violins, and many an enthusi-
astic musician would part with his
last dollar to possess one of the mas
terpieces of StradivariUs or Guarneri-
us or another of the famous makers of
a century or two ago.
The questioned superiority of these
old and often battered instruments has
been variously ascribed to the peculiar
quality of the varnish used in their
construction, to the elasticity Of the
wood employed and to the ripening and
improving effects Of age and long use.
OF late years. however, much Gre
dence has been given the suggestion
of an eminent authority that the real
cause Of the superiority of the old in
strunlents Is due to a peculiar warp
ing Of the wood to higher arch, a
buckling caused by the position of the
"F'' holes and sound post.
1t might at first thought be suppos-
ed that the same effect could be pro.
duced by giving an equal arching to a
new instrument, but the effect. If at.
tained, Is not permanent, because with
age the arching increases until toe

MONEY MAKERS
Dairy Cows Make Farmers Inderen-
dent Of Wheat Weather

One farmer living a few miles
from Minot has six COWS, which
bring him a monthly income of
S36 or 81 per COW. Besides this
he had the natural increase, the
skim milk to feed his pigs and
calves and fertilizer to put on
his land. This man is of course,
just getting started. BY next
year he expects to have double
his herd, when he will be in a
position to regard the back
ward season - with less concern.
A good COW is sure to yield a
yearly profit of $50. Twenty
cows can easily be kept on a
quarter section farm and still
have plenty of land for sheep,
hogs, poultry, vegetables and
such grains and grasses as can
be raised with profit. Tame
grasses of all kinds grow bounti-
fully here. 1t has never been
demonstrated by practical tests
that corn cannot be successfully
