THE WICKERSHAM LECTURES.

Another enjoyable and edifying
lecture In the Warren entertainment
course was given by L. B. Wicker
sham. the great word painter
humorist and philosopher. at the
opera house last Saturday evening.
The subject of this lecture was Day
Dreams. term which the speaker
applied to thoe longings and aspira-
tions Of the human soul to accom-
plish its God given work in life. a
work for which it Is best fitted by
natural talents and adaptability.
Every healthy and we'll born young
person has these day dreams in great
or or less degree. He cited numerous
examples. as Isaac Newton, the great
physicist, Henry Clay. the matchless
debater and James A. Garfield,
soldier and statesman. and the case
of himself, to show how these dreams
In youth may become powerful and
determining factors in directing
ones course in life. Mr.. Wicker
sham's day dream was to be a
preacher, and after overcoming many
obstacles, he at last realized his
ambition. Parents and teachers
ought to respect the day dreams of
the children so that their powers and
talents may be developed according
to natures plan. We cannot always
realize our day dreams, but should
strive to do so The lecture was in
terspersed with many witticisms and
humorous illusions. that made the
philosophic facts very palatablc.
On Sunday afternoon Rev. Wicker
sham delivered an eloquent an i'm
pressive address at the opera house.
taking as his text John II IA. "And
he that was dead came forth bound
hand and foot with grave clothes
and his face was bound with a
napkin. Jesus saith unto them,
Loose him and let him co." The
sermon, for such it may be called.
was really a plea for higher educa-
tion. the loosing of the human soul.
A person who is instrumental in
loosing human soul so that it's
powers and possibilities may be de-
veloped to the greatest extent and be
a blessing to mankind, performs the
grandest and noblest' work that q
human being can do. Among the
manv examples cited, the case of DR..
Newell Dwight Hills appeared to US
the most striking. His parents. who
lived on the Missouri bottoms in
Iowa, sent him to college with only
Sl3. SO in his pocket, Sll. 90 of which
were spent for railroad fare to the
city where the school was located.
Now DR.. Hills is pastor of Henry
Ward Beecher's church in Brooklyn.
the greatest church in America. and
has also won world wide fame as an
author. At the close of the lecture
free will Offering was taken up for
the aid of worthy students.

INSTITUTE.
For Marshall Comfy will be
Held at Warren on
March 18th.

There. will be a session of the
Minnesota Farmers Institute at
Warren on Saturday, March IA.
The Farmers Institute Is the
travelling school of agriculture for
the farmers of Minnesota. The
Institutes have been in operation for
twenty years and the work is we'll
known over the entire state. The
instructors employed are practical
farmers who have made a success of
their special lines of farming, and
who have the ability to 60 on the
platform and tell other farmers how
they have gone about their work.
They are all men who have learned
their work thru their own experience
and observation, and our farmers
should not miss hearing them and
getting from them all the informa-
tion they can.
Farmers Institute Annual No. 20
will be distributed at the close of the
morning session of the Institute.
This is new book containing over
300 pages of the best farm reading,
and every farm home should have
copy of it.
There will be two sessions of the
Institute-one at 10 a. NJ. and the
other at l 80 p. m. The meetings
are always started sharp on time,
whether there be only one man in the
hall or two hundred. Those who
come late are sure to miss some-
thing good. Be on time for both
sessions-stay till the close. and then
say If it has not been worth whole
lot more trouble than it has taken to
attend.
It is not intended that these meet
1ngs shall be for the benefit of the
men only. The women and young
people will always be interested in
what is being done. They are often
the ones who are more apt to take
hold of the improved methods that
are advocated and So lead the way
for the men of the family.
For the benefit OF those who can
not get uD in the meeting and ask
questions, box is always placed on
the platform into which questions
can be dropped concerning matters
that are of interest. This question
box is opened during the afternoon
session. and the answers to the
q questions are very often most in
teresting part OF the session.
There will be no regular program
only such topics as are of interest to
our locality will be discussed. and
these will be taken up at such times
during the day as are most conven-
lent. Be on hand from beginning to
end, so that nothing will be missed.
Bring your note book and pencil
with you. Many of the points given
by the speakers should be put down
SO that they will not be forgotten.
The charts and DIAGRAMS hung on
the walls are worth making sketches
and novels of.

DAlRYMENS' CONTESTS.

Geo. l.. Austen, of St. Hilaire,
secretary of the Red River Valley
Dairymens' Association, has issued
the following circular:
The Red River Valley Dairymens'
Assn was organized for the promo
tion of the dairy industry in the
Valley and one of the best ways to
do this is to, educate the farmers lin
the art of breeding and selection of
dairy stock and teach them to feed
more 1nteliigently. A good method
to work up some interest along this
line is by means contests between in
dividual COWS and also between
different herds In the production of
butterfat per COW.
By means of these contests it can
be show what great difference
there is in cows as to the amount OF
butterfat they will produce under
the same conditions and it will also
be shown what effect the Different
methods of feeding and caring for
COWS has upon the production of
butterfat. By means of these con-
tests it will be discovered where
some of the best COWS are located
and what their records are and they
will to certain extent be taken as
a standard by other dairymen in the
Valley, who are keeping Improbable
COWS and so on the interest in the
matter will continue to grow.
The Red River Dairymens' Assn
conducted a COW contest last year
and much enthusiasm was worked
up and good accomplished. This is
being conducted again this year
along the same line and quite large
number of cows have been entered.
For any who have been keeping re-
cord of the butterfat production of
their COWS since September or
October it is not too late to enter
the contest yet.
This Association will also conduct
a creamery patrons herd contest
during the coming year. Ten dollars
in cash will be given TO the patron
receiving the largest amount of cash
per COW from the creamery between
January lst and October lst, 1908.
In order to getaat the right number
of COWS MIXED during the period it
will be necessary to figure the
number of COWS MIXED each month
and take the average at the end of
nine months. This contest is open
to any dairyman in the Red River
Valley, who is patron of some
creamery, except those who have al
ready entered the COW contest.
An affidavit must be made out and
sworn to by two disinterested parties
besides the owner of the herd as to
the number of COWS MIXED during
the period. A picture of the win
ming herd will be framed and hung
in the hall at the next convention
of the Red River Valley Dairymens'
Assn and the owners picture will be
printed on the programs. The names
of all those entering the contest with
amount received for the nine months
will be published in the Dairy Re-
cord of st. Paul. If some desire not
to have their names published they
should notify the secretary at the
end Of the period.
All those wishing to enter this
contest should notify tile secretary
by March 18th, 1908.
