This negro was somewhat of a

You should read the financial
report of the Trego County High
School. and note that the total
cost of the school for the year
just closed is 3,641, which is
practically one dollar per quar-
ter section if the whole cost were
assessed to the farms of the
county. After deducting the
tax paid by the railroad and the
personal property tax, the cost
is a trifie less than sixty
cents per quarter section. Be
fore the school was established
it was estimated, and promised,
that high school with one teach
er should not cost more than
fifty cents per quarter section
and now that we are maintaining
a school with three efficient
instructors at cost below sixty
seven cents is a matter for
hearty congratulations. Under
the new assessment law which
will add to the roailroad valua-
lions and bring out much per-
sonal property which has escap-
ed taxation heretofore, it is
probable that a fourth instruc-
tor can be added without increas-
ed cost to land owners. The
school is a success and that it
can be and is maintained with
out burdening taxpayers is cause
for just pride on the part of
every citizen of Trego county.

in today , carloads of hogs of his

Stewart the short grass country
is fast running to farming in
stead of exclusive stock raising.
He has 200 acres in wheat and 60
acres of alfalfa, and raises about
200 hogs a year We are rails
ing more hogs now than at any
previous time. and are spreading
out in corn each year, said Mr..
Stewart. This change is going
on all the time, and at the same
time fewer cattle are beng rails
ed The stand of corn this spring
is excellent With a larger num-
Der of acres in, and the prospect
for a good crop, we are feeling
very hopeful for a prosperous
year We feel that it is the rails
ing of hogs and corn. and the
production of more alfalfa, that
are going to make that country
famous Diversified farming
beats any one exclusive line OF
live stock, or the raising of one
particular crop. We have had
good rains, and everything is
coming along in fine shape *

The plated skirt is passe The

a plated skirt or two.
Shall it be ripped. sponged. the

Anne Rittenhouse in the Philadelphia

The earnest advice of anyone who
knows is against this process. 1t is
true that plain gored skirts are in first

new suit she must be guided By this
fact, bat this does not argue that the
plated skirt is hopelessly out of style.
1t is never a good plan to recut a

course of time came to shift pretty
much for itself"
AS a matter of history and legend it
seems that on the eminence on which
the castle is so admirably situated
there was always Hohenzollern.
There was stronghold there in the
ninth century.
Destroyed and rebuilt through vary
Ing fortunes of war it covered much
the same ground in the fourteenth
century that the building now does.
With the passing of the age of chival-
ry, the old fortress fell into ruins and
Frederick ". of Prussia, wishing to
preserve the ancestral home of his
family, restored 1t upon model of a
castle of the latter part of the four
teenth century.

is told in rhyme. No other castle in
I the world is said to have quite so
much poetry on 1t. Rhymes on the
gate, walls. stairways. tablets, es-
cutcheons, scrolls and in festoons set
forth the genealogy of the Hohenzol-
lern family from the earliest time to
the present.
That a castle may have too much
poetry about it Hechingen firmly be-
lieves. 1t thinks, moreover, that II
there had been less of it, or if what
there was had been of a better quality,
the kaiserin might not have got tired
and might have deigned to return.
Her majesty came here once said
a Hechingen man who seemed to know
all about Hohenzollern AT first she
was enthusiastic over the castle its
superb situation and its architectural
beauty, and she started in to study the
building.
"The inscriptions over the gate
caught her eye and she read them
She continued to read as she walked
on. She read verse after verse, until
finally when she had finished with the
genealogical hall she asked to be
shown to the royal apartments.
There were more rhymes there

often compared-and our kaiser, You
