Notes..

Patience and energy well ap.
piled will do wonders.
An indlscriminate mixing of
breeds will produce scrubs.
The muddy yard is worse for
sheep than for any other stock.
The eve that receives good
care shows 1t in her produce.
Scrubs among sheep are just
as bad as scrubs among hogs and
cattle.
The earlier the fat sheep are
put upon the market the better
the prices.
Every farm home should have
lots of sunshine. It's free and
mighty healthful.
Sunshine is as valuable In the
barn as 10 the henhouse. There
IS usually less of 1T, though.
A lot OF valuable work Gun be
done right now If there IS com.
fortlble workshop on the farm.
The man who tries to get the
best he can from his farm seldom
has difficulty selling his products.
This is good tune to put the
flaming mill to work. It's the
best way to improve the small
gram seed.
The selling side Of farming is
an important thing. Do not
oold the stuff tor long and do
n)t be IN too much Of a hurry.

Why Not Read The Bible?
BY Geo. wa. Mellott,

Is the book lost? We are com
manded by the best authority or
the Bible, to read, search, medi
tate upon the Bible; the whole
not a part. We find that Christ
read the Scriptures, and he says
he has given us an example, and
John says he left US an example
that we should follow In his steps.
e Timothy; 3:16)
All Scripture is given by In.
spiration of God, and is profitable
for doctrine, tor reproof, for cor.
rectlon, Tor instruction in righte
ousness. Now we will give a few
quotations from the Bible as IL is
given us: Proverbs the 1925:
"My son, If thou wilt receive my
words aud hide my com mand-
ments with thee so that thou IN.
cline thine ear unto wisdom, and
apply thine heart to understand.
ing. Yea, If thou crest after
knowledge, and liftest up thy
voice for understanding; if thou
seeketh as for silver, and search
est for her as for hidden trea =
ures, then shalt thou understand
the fear of the Lord, and find the
knowledge of God"
We would say, let each one as
he reats, ask the question, Do l
search the Bible as | would seirch
for silver?
Psalms Ii, 9, 3: BLESSED is the
man that walketh not IN the coun.
sci of the ungodly, nor standeth
in the way of sinners, nor sitteth
IN the seat of the scornful:
But his delight is in the law of
the Lord, and IN his law doth he
mediate, day and night.
And he shall be like a tree,
planted by the rivers of water,
that bringeth forth his fruit in
his season; his leaf also shall not
wlther, and whatsoever he doeth
shall prosper.
Let us ask again, do we "medi-
tate day and night?"
Joshua AS: "ThIs book of the
law shall not depart out of thy
mouth, but thou shalt mediate
therein day and nj. ht, that thou
mayest observe to do according
to all that is written therein; for
then shall thou make thy ways
prosperous, and then thou shalt
have good success"
Another question, Do we do
according to all that is written
therein?
Deuteronomy 6:6, Z; We hear
Moses speak: "And these words
which | com mand thee this day,
shall be in thine heart, and thou
Shalt teach them diligently unto
thy children, and shalt talk of
them when thou slttest in thy
house, and when thou walkest by
the way" How often dc we come
short of the above teaching?
John 5;39; Jesus commands US
to "search the Scriptures, for IN
them ye think ye have eternal
life and they are thev that testi.
fly of me-" That is, tell all things
concerning him. Revelation [,
B: John tell us: BLESSED is he
that readeth, and they that hear
the words of this prophecy"
Acts 17:11; We hear Paul,
speaking of a certain people,
''Those were more noble than
those in Thessalonica. in that they
received the Word with all the
Of mind, and searched
the Scriptures daily. whether
these things were so.
Now, IN conclusion, how many
of us will Jesus praise for search
ng the Scriptures, and rec sivng
The word with readiness of mind?

How To Cook Summer Vegetables.

Beans-If little sugar is add
ed to the water IN which string.
beans are cooked 1T will help to
orlng out the flavor of the vege
table. A teaspoonful of sugar to
two quarts of beans will be suf
dclent for this purpose. A pinch
of baking soda will not only pre-
serve the color of the beans, but
will help to make the toughest
beans tender. In cooking lima
beans, piece of butter the size
Of a hlckorynut added to the wa
ter wilt prevent them from foam
ing over.
-3eets-Never peel beets be-
fore cooking them, says Miles
Bradford In July Designer.
Merely wash and scrape them;
then put them on to boil without
removing even the root end.
When they have become tender,
plunge them into cold water for
a moment or two, and the skins
may be rubbed off without the
slightest trouble In this way
the beets may be made to retain
all their color.
Cabbage-The best way to cook
new cabbage is to cut it into
small pieces, after removing the
core, and boil it IN water that
scarcely covers 1t. Any of this
water that is left when the cab
oage Is done must be drained
away before the vegetable can be
prepared or dressed Tor the TIA
bic. A little baking-soda added
to the water in which the cab
Gage is cooked will help to make
it more tender. A little sugar
will improve the flavor.

PLAN FOR ENTERTAINMENT
New England Dinner and Concert Will
Be Given For Benefit of
Library.

For several months past, the Dallas
Free Library has received no aid from
the city and has been obliged to bor-
row money to pay its bare running
expenses. Last month the most Of the
subscriptions for periodicals expired
and it has been impossible for some
time to purchase any new books.
Things have at last come to crisis
where one of two things must be done j:
Either the balance OF the one-half
mill tax money appropriated for
library purposes last December, must
be paid by the city council and the
library work in this way continued,
or the institution will very shortly be
compelled to close its doors.
During the first year and half the
library work was carried on entirely
by number of unselfsh women who
gave their time to it, but now the work
has grown to such proportions that
this method is no longer practicable
or possible.
In order to wipe out the steadily
accumulating debt and to celebrate
the third anniversary of the founding
of the Dallas Free Library, in fitting
manner, the management is planning
big entertainment for the evening
of October 2.
From $50 to 8 o'clock p. M, a
splendid New England dinner will be
served in the armory, followed at 8 sc
o'clock by concert In the main hall
Of the Woodman building. Profiting
by the many unfortunate features OF
the dinner served year ago, the
management has engaged the entire
lower floor of the Woodman Hall
fully capable of seating 200 persons al
once. In this way, the annoyance oi
crowding and waiting will be obviated
The supply of food will be more than
doubled, for fully as large a crowd is
expected to attend as last year. The
menu and the personnel Of the com
mittees having the affair in charge
will be made public next week.
The concert will be made up Of both
local and Portland talent. The two
beautiful pianos that will be used in
this portion of the entertainment have
been secured through the courtesy Of
the Wiley B. Allen Company, Of Port
land. Mr.. Gormley, their local repre-
sentative, will have charge of the
preparation of the musical program
and the patrons Of the entertainment
may be assured Of most enjoyable
performance. The program in full
will be prepared and made public
within few days.

RECEIVES TERRIBLE INJURY
George Mcdowell Is Paralyzed By
Falling From High Platform
of Hop Drier.

George Mcdowell fell from the plat
form of the Link hop drier near Pedee,
Tuesday evening, receiving injuries
which are exceedingly severe and.
it is feared, may prove fatal.
Mr.. Mcdowell was busy laying a
new kiln of hops. 1t was late in the
evening and the inside of the building
was so dark that he was obliged to
work by the light of lantern which
his wife was holding for him. He
had stepped out onto the platform out
side the kiln room to bring in another
sack of hops, and it is supposed that
he stepped off of the platform in the
darkness, although no one saw him
fall.
His wife waited several minutes in
side the building and then becoming
uneasy about his continued absence
went out with the lantern to find out
what was delaying him. When she
found him he was lying unconscious
\ oA IhC SlOuAu 10 ACCL UClOWs
Help was summoned at once, the
sufferer was borne to a place Of shell
ter and message was sent to Dallas
for physician. Drs. Bollman and
Starbuck left at once and upon arriv-
ing a hasty examination showed that
his back and shoulders had been ter
ribly bruised by the force of the fall
and his backbone had apparently been
broken, although the bruised condi-
tion of the flesh made it difficult to
ascertain with certainty the full
extent of the injury.
The invalid is completely paralyzed
from the waist down, having neither
sensation nor the power Of motion in
his lower limbs. He is receiving the
best possible attention, however, and
every effort is being used to bring
about an ultimate recovery If possible

The idea Uf the s.t."s:Fi::lent turning

relished in these days. We are Decom-
ing reconciled to pateriialit;in lii many
directions where there seems to be
work that the federal government can
do better than any other power. o
toring in the ordinary sense Is not IN
this class. For one thing, there is q
popular notion that half the dOctoring
in this age is useless and that people
who indulge in it should foot the bills.
But 1t is not proposed that the nation
al public health department. now be-
ing advocated, shall undertake to feel
the pulse and hand out paragorie and
uuinine by wholesale. The idea Is to
head off sickness and thus Danish the
pill box and all that goes with 1t.
The country has health boards and
bureaus without number. They are
doing good work. and the field is Gov
cred in SO far as investigating causes
and studying and applying cures are
concerned. But back of this work lies
prevention, and in this field the ma
tional health officers are expected to
find legitimate scope and an excuse
for being. This is the day Of interstate
activity and of the interdependence
Of communities separated by state
lines. Air brea1hed and water drunk
in one state may be polluted IN an
| other. and. so on. The national stan
will, Of course, be made up Of men
from all the states. and Jealousy and
friction should be reduced to a mini
mum.
