The Farmers Institute has this
year issued a new publication that
should be of great value to every far
mer who gets a copy of it. The new
book is called the Farmers Institute
Handy Reference Book, and contains
many formulas that are often needed
by the farmers for spraying potatoes
and fruits, treating seed grain for
smut, spraying for weeds, and many
of the little things that the farmer
SO often wishes to know about but
does not know where to go for in
formation The book is to be given
away free to those who attend the
institute to be held at Morris on We'd
nesday, June 18th, and we believe it
well worth the time of any farmer to
attend to obtain copy.

interested in improving the conditions
of the rural schools of the state. He
believes there is no better way to
help keep the young people on the
farm than to make their education to
be such as will cause them to take
an interest in their everyday work
and to see that the work is not mere
drudgery unless they choose to make
it so.

ter him for long while. Green learned

SHERIFF DlsAPpoINTs CROWD.
Returns Another Way to Mason City
With Acknowledged Negro AssaiIant.

Mason City, May 13.-Disappoint-
ment was the portion of crowd of
over fifty men awaiting the arrival of
Sheriff Holdren with his negro pris-
oner from Albert Lea. They expected
him to come over the Iowa Central
but instead, they returned by way of
Austin and over the Great Western.
The prisoner was Immediately placed
behind the bars in the county Jail, and
whether the crowd gathering at the
Iowa Central was there merely from
curiosity or for some more sinister
motive is matter for deep conjecture.
Sheriff Holdren found that the man
arrested in Albert Lea was Charles
Boston as he had thought and the
negro acknowledged to him that he
was the man who attacked Miss De-
liza Brennan at the Collins Hotel early
Sunday morning. He would not be-
tray his motive in performing such a
brutal and cowardly act but seemed to
wish to intimate that he intended to
rob the place.
