AT the adjourned meeting of the
Vernon County Agricultural society to
be held January 16, the homecoming
idea in connection with the next fair
will be discussed. Work has already
been started to make the 1909 fair the
best on record.
Following the annual election of
officers last evening, the Mystic Work

spent at dancing and cards. 1t may
not be amiss to mention that eight ap-

thriving order were received.

Machinery manufacturers say that
the principal cause of short-lived inn
plements is exposure to the weather.
Farmers who leave their machinery
standing in the field, or otherwise ex.
posed. take more out of it in this way
than by actual running during the
months of operation. A cheaply con-
strueted covering or shed is a good in
vestment and no truly thrifty farmer
would do without one.

THE GREATEST INCREASE IN
VALUE Is GOING TO TAKE
PLACE IN BEAVER PARK.
ALSO THE QUICKEST
INCREASE.
The Beaver Land, and Irrigation Co. is now
selling 1000 acres and will sell 1900 addi-
tionals when their reservoir system shall
been completed.
These reservoirs will require from two to
three years for completion
To sell 1000 acres the Beaver company will
have to take several thousand people through the
tract and show them what has been accomplished
by those who bought the first 900 acres
Hundreds will want improved partially inn
proved places. 50 those who buy in Beaver Park
now will get the benefit of all the advertising the
company must do to sell the remainder of it's
Every dollar you spend in Beaver Park will
double in two years-you buy twenty
and by improving it, sell 1 o for enough
to clear 10 acres in two years.
You will notdoubt this if you take the time to
see Beaver Park 1t is the most beautiful location

1t may be plain TO the receiver Of
the Third avenue street car line in
New York that every passenger who
does not pay his fare steals, but some
patrons of the line, while admitting
the appearance of evil, will insist on
calling by another name their failure
to come forward with their nickels.
Very little conscience money is turned
into the treasures of the street car
companies, while the schemes to get
rides for nothing are numerous and in
genious and work about one time out
of 100. 1t is sin to steal a pin and
also a street car ride, but now and
then man has a special arrangement
with his conscience by which he can
sleep nights just as soundly, or even
more so, If he has put one over on the
company during the day.

Expensive Funerals.

Expensive funerals are very profita-
BILE to the undertakers, who adroitly
encourage this form of extravaganza,
as they are aware that some persons
think the respect shown deceased
relative is gagged by the cost of the
display. To those who desire and can
afford costly funerals, there can be no
reasonable objection to the gratifica-
ton of their wishes; but there is very
little wisdom manifested by the poor
people who for months after the bur-
ial of a relative have to stint them
selves to pay for their extravaganza.
1t is not uncommon to see from 20 to
40 carriages following a hearse to the
cemetery, at a cost of at least five
dollars each. The bereaved family
thus respected Iy the attendance of
their friends on such melancholy &C.
casions, often return to home in
which poverty has long been known,
and perhaps aggravated by the pro-
tracted illness of the person just laid
in the grave. 1t may be that the chief
bread winner of the flock has been re-
moved. If this is the case, costly
funeral is very likely to make them
more keenly feel the loss of their rel
ative. How much better it would be,
exclaims the New York Weekly, to
save the money that is usually squan-
dered for unnecessary carriages, and
devote the sum to the relief of the
needy family. Some poor but proud
persons might object to such assist
ance, but there are others who would
gladly accept it.

hint of what may be expected
when the success of aerial navigation
is completely demonstrated is fur
nished by the steps already taken by
the weather bureau at Washington, re-
marks the Troy IN. " Times. That
part of the government is on the look
out for all the help that can be pro-
cured in foretelling what the elements
have in store, and is enlisting the fly
ing machines as fast as possible. The
bureau has prepared printed forms for
the use of persons experimenting in
aeronautics, and these forms are dis
tributed with a view to getting data
otherwise unobtainable. The co-opera-
ton of aero clubs throughout the
country is earnestly desired. The bu-
reau suggests the sort of observations
taken in the upper air which, in coz
nection with those made on the
ground, may aid materially in further
ing meteorological knowledge. Thus It
would appear that navigation of the
air may add largely to scientific lore
and may have important results aside
from the matter of the new method of
transportation.
