FARM NOTES

could spend the whole day out in the
pasture and come in at night and
seemingly devour as much slop per
capita as if they had been shut i'm a

"My memory goes back to the time
when grain was bound by hand, and
when | think of the "wiggle" that it

a good reaper I have to lean up

"There are two kinds of trouble
that man should never worry about:
The things that can be helped, and
those which can't be helped"
"When the son comes home from
his agricultural college course, he
may seem to his Uncle Amos, to be
full of fool notions about the old
farm. His Uncle Amos may also
seem, to him, to be buried deep under
old fogy notions of forty years ago.
Let both work together and talk to-
gether and talk together patiently
and kindly. Then each will give the
other due credit for WISDOM
Zone thing that makes farm life
charming is that there is no hard feel

farmers can pull up their teams at the

at swords points. The members

BUSINESS MEN ATTENTION

We understand that many farmers
in the towns Of Grand Rapids. Sara
toga and New Rome would prefer to
come to this city tD trade, then go
elsewhere. The sand hill south of
the Power House in the city is so
steep and hard to climb that they
avoid travelling over IT. The city
limits strike about midway up this
hill. We understand that Frank
Whitrock, chairman Of the town of
Grand Rapids is willing to join with
the city in the expense necessary to
reduce the hill and make il easier to
climb it. Why not take this matter
up now and have it done, SO that
people who live south of the city and
on the east side of the river can come
to this market more easily. VIII the
business men wake up to this?

BAND CONCERT AND
SOCIAL A GREAT SUCCESS

About two thousand people as
sembed on the Court House grounds
and adjoining streets to listen to the
band concert Thursday evening The
weather was ideal and the band boys
never played better or furnished any
more popular selections. The ladies
of the Federated clubs served ice
cream and cake, popcorn, homemade
candies, ETC.. and did a land office
business. In fact they sold every
thing they had to sell and are highly
pleased as consequence. They are
thankful to the general public for the
liberal patronage they received.
These a Id similar occasions like it are
what go to make life more pleasant
and worth the living. We would sug-
gest to those who drive, and those
who walk if they would always bear
in mind to take the right hand side it
would aid getting through the
crowded conditions during the band
concerts.

W. S. Goodland, editor and owner
Of the Racine Times. declares that he
was told these things by a responsible
man who got the news direct from
Senator Stephenson.
The news was told Mr.. Goodland on
train while he was returning from
the Chicago Republican convention.
Mr.. Goodland today verified absolute
ly the whole report.
He predicted on June 20 in his news
paper unreseryedly that Mr.. Stephen
son would come out for the United

In an article he printed recently he
says that the Republican party in

TELL HER so!

Are you tender of the affection of
those who love you?
Maybe you think you are. Maybe
you never think seriously of the sub
ject at all.
Ii you do not, let this editorial awake
you to this responsibility.
In San Francisco, some months ago,
over his coffee, man thoughtlessly
and facetiously remarked to his wife,
Il met a pretty girl today-pretty
black hair and black eyes, l wonder
why l ever married blonde.
OF course the patient little wife
smiled meekly and did not permit her
self to seem provoked. He was only
joking.
He was crude, dull sort of a fel-
low, really loving his wife after his
way, but never demonstrating his
love in any marked degree of passion.
She loved him desperately. though
quietly, the real test being her con-
slant alertnesS to make his home
sweet and comfortable and his time
with her agreeable.
The husband seemed to delight in
reminding this wife of "the other
grip. He seemed possessed with de-
sire to form jealousy in her heart.
The wife said nothing, but at times
he observed that his twitting made
her thoughtful, and this only seemed
to stimulate his desire to continue the
"joke."
Months went on and the husbands
'other girl" became almost a reality
in the household.
One day the husband noticed that
his wife appeared strange and dis
traught. He called a physician 1t
appeared to be a mental disturbance
Eventually it came out that the poor
little woman, brooding over the sup
posed unfaithfulness of her husband,
had lost her reason.
cit was all joke", the husband
explained. But it was too late. And
few weeks later the stupid fellow
laid away the corpse of the faithful
woman who loved him madly and died
a martyr to his absurd 'joke."
He who trifieS with human affection
treads on dangerous ground. 1t is in
the great second self of man and it
must be reckoned with seriously.
If you love her, tell her so!
Tell her so many, many times!
Prove it to her every day. And she
will return the proof ten Thousand
times and you and she will live. Mil

Friday afternoon on Grand Ave,
in which the participants, two well
known west Side ladies miraculousIy
escaped serious injury. AS Mrs
Frank Dudley was returning from an
afternoon drive, exercising her
favorite horse, she met her friend,
Mrs. Celina Fritzsinger, at the
corner of First and Grand Ave, near

the latter to step into the buggy and
she would take her to her home on

On reaching a point opposite the
Lyon Block the left front wheel of the
buggy came off upsetting the rig and
spilling its occupants into the street.
Both parties received number of

SHALL VINE STREET
BE WlDENED NOW?

The city Board of Public Works
met this week for the consideration Of
the widening of Vine and Oak streets.
They went over the benefits and
damages to the abutting property,
and decided to offer MIR. NJ. A.
BOgoger $500 for the twenty foot
wide strip across his property on Vine
street. They established or fixed, for
the purpose of arriving at the true
value of property for distance of 1000
feet from said Vine street a certain
estimate of value. They want to
widen Vine street now and Oak
street next year, if the property
owners will be reasonable and assist
to that end without litigation. After
the land is purchased it is the city's
intention of grading down the hill so
as to leave a gradual slope and ma
cadamize the same When this is
done abutting property will be more
valuable than now. Get together
gentlemen and let US have Vine
street widened and improved.
