Last Friday was a big day for the
Modern Woodmen of Howard County,

big class initiation of candidates secured

present, among the number being dele
cations from LIE Roy, Lime Springs,

The class consisted of about 100 can
didates secured for the Cresco camp,

ST. PER YEAR
Democrats Should File at Once.

At large and representative gath
ering of the democrats of the state,
who were in attendance at the kJeffer-
son Banquet, the necessity developed
of proceeding Immediately to meet the
requirements of the new primary law.
After an informal discussion in which
the consensus of opinion was that inn
mediate steps shoul be taken to have
candidates for the various state and
county Offices announce themselves at
once and Immediately proceed to meet
the requirements of the new primary
law, the meeting was formally organ
lied by electing Gen. James B. Weaver
chairman, and A. R. McCock secretary.
The following resolutions, introduced
by the Hon. M. j. Wade, member of
the National Committee were unani-
mously adopted.
Resolved, That it is the sense of the
democrats assembled, ten districts be-
ing represented, that the State Central
Committee and all Of tho County Chair
men of the State should take immedi-
ate steps to see that candidates be an
nounced for presidential electors, State
officers, members of the General As
sembly, and all county officers; and
that they proceed at once to procure
petitions for filing within the time fixed
by law, which time will soon expire.
Resolved also, That that it is the
sense of this meeting that candidates
must file petitions and go on sthe prim-
ary ballot.
'And further be it resolved, That
the secretary of this meeting be in
structed to send copy of the above
resolutions to each member of the
State Committee and to all County
Chairmen.
AS all nomination papers must be on
file not later than April 23rd, it is nec-
essary and important that immediate
action be taken to insure to all candi-
dates place on the official ballot.
1t is very important that we have
candidates in the field for all offices
within the state and nothing should be
allowed to go by default.

When four years of age he moved
with his parents to Berrien County.
Michigan, and twelve years later to
Wisconsin. While yet young man he
came to Iowa and, after returning for
time to Canada, finally settled in this
state at Elgin, Fayette County. It
was here that he married Mary Alice
Blakesley, the wife who survives him,
on August 5, 1860. In 1868 the family
moved to Cresco, where, with only
temporary interruptions, the parents
have since resided. The children are

survive. Three sisters are still living:
Mary Ann (Mrs. Henry Hewson), of
Kansas, Sarah Catherine (widow of
Adam FusselD formerly resident in
New Oregon; and Malvina Marian
(Mrs. Levi Earle), of Michigan.
After a long illness he departed this
life on April 2, 1908, while at the home
of his son Walter E. Doan, in Hopkin-
ton, Iowa. All of his family were
with him at the time of his death;
Frank being also resident of Hopkin-
ton, and his daughter coming from her
home at Iowa City and Fred from

Dan Horan Dies Suddenly.

Dan Horan passed away very sud
denly at his home near Plymouth Rock
on Sunday evening. He was in his
usual health, having attended church
at Plymouth Rock during the day, and
had seated himself at the supper table
and was in the act of drinking cup of
tea when he was seized with an intense
pain in the right side Of his head, just
above the ear. The pain gradually
progressed downward to his heart and
he passed away at about nine o'clock
before the arrival of DR.. Kessel, who
had been summoned. Mr.. Horan had
always been seemingly stout, healthy
man for his age and good for many
more years of life, and consequently
his quick demise is surprise ane
shock to the community.
The funeral takes place tomorrow
at the Plymouth Rock Church.

and securing mop-stick, made moose

LADIES TEACHING FARMING.

An interesting fact noted by lead
ing western educator, State Superin-
tendent Bishop of Nebraska, who is a
pioneer in the field Of agricultural edu-
cation in the rural schools, is the prom
inent part which lady county superin-
tendcnts of schools are taking in the
matter Of introducing these subjects
into the courses Of study in the schools
under their charge. One Nebraska
lady superintendent has 700 children
ut work in agricultural classes, while
one residing in southern Iowa cOun-
ty has issued a special bulletin dealing
with practical scientific agricultural
subjects. Some idea of the interest
which the department of public IL
struction in Nebraska is taking in this
line Of work may be gained from the
fact that arrangements have been
made by Mr.. Bishop to hold the con
yentions of the Nebraska BGEs' AGG'i-
cultural society and the Nebraska
Girls Domestic Science association il

is THE INVESTMENT SAFE?
friend makes inquiry a

A friend makes inquiry as to the
wisdom Of purchasing land as far west
as Martin county, Tex, which the map
shows to be about a hundred miles
west of the one hundredth meridian.
Generally speaking, the ninety-ninth
meridian Is accepted as the agricul-
tural dead line," west of which there
is little use to break up the soil fer
tillage purposes. A glance at any civil
map of the United States will show
how uniformly the western tide Of set
tlement has stopped at this. line, as
shown by the location of towns. AS
indicated in this way, it is seen to ruin
in almost a direct line from the north
ern boundary of North Dakota through
to southern Texas. 1t is true that dur
ing the past six or seven years the
rainfall has been sufficiently heavy, 50
that fair success in purely agricultural
pursuits has been had on lands lying
quite distance west of this line, While
the breaking up of considerable areas
may have had a modifying effect on
drought conditions. But a cycle of dry
years is quite likely to come and it is
conditions which will prevail In such
seasons that the land seeker should
take note of if he has in mind purchag-
ing permanent farm home. The ear
marks of this dry country, which is not
lacking in fertility, but in moisture,
are buffalo grass, sagebrush and caC-
tus. Where herbage of this kind
abounds more conclusive evidence is
furnished of the unwisdom of purchas-
ing for tillage purposes than in any
spiel the agent may make, unless, in
deed, irrigation IS possible, when the
situation is entirely altered. The in
vesting of from $4,000 to $4,000 or
$1,000 in a quarter section of land is a
serious move as well as an important
one for the man of limited means who
has had to work hard for his savings.
The step should be taken only after
thorough, sober and careful investiga-
tion. Better a fellow should spend
5000 acquainting himself thoroughly
with a prospective land purchase than
to buy in haste and find out later that
he has been deceived and swindled.
