EDUCATES ITS
FARMERS,

Denmark is the best known example
Land values range from $500 to- 81 1000
per acre. Dairying is the leading in
dustry, closely followed in importance
by the bacon hog and the laying hen.
The kingdom has nearly 100000
farms and farm gardens of 10 acres
or less, and about 100000 farms of be-
tween 10 and Is acres. There are less
than 1000 farms of 500 acres or over,
the aggregate of these last named be-
ing less than a million acres. There
are 1855 creameries with 15S,170 pa
irons, 33 bacon factories and an egg
exporting society with 500 local cen
tiers.
Denmark formerly occupied the low
est rung of the agricultural ladder.
This little European community about
half the size of Maine, and precisely
the size of Connecticut and Maryland,
has risen from the bottom rung
to the big firm platform surrounding
the agricultural ladder, and Denmark
started early and did it in the right
way.
In 1914 this small European COM
munity established high schools where
real agriculture and horticulture were
taught. There are now IS of these
with an attendance of some 5000. It's
marked success is the result of edu-
eating children in these schools. Hav-
ing completed their school work the
boys and girls return to- the farm. In
fact they have never left the farm.
They work while being educated.
They are thoroughly trained farmers.
Some of the old fogy farmers of to-
day would call them book farmers"
But book farming" made Denmark
and in thirty years this kind of farm
ing pushed this toy kingdom to the
top in agriculture. These school
trained farmers are able to buy Kan
sas alfalfa, corn and bran and feed it
to dairy cows, the butter from which
completes with ours in the English and
foreign markets and sells at a price
which is making the Dane money.
Book farming" pays if it is done
right.

LAST RESIDENT DEPARTS.

The removal of l.. l.. Armstrong,
one OF the pioneer residents from Ly-
man, situated on the Missouri river.
in the extreme eastern portion of Ly-
man county, wholly depupulates the
old town, which thus passes out of ex-
istence.
Lyman was the first new town to be
established west of Chamberlain when
5000, 900 acres Of the great Sioux res
ervation between the Missouri river
and the Black Hills were opened to
settlement on February 10, 1890. 1t
promised to become quite an important
trade center, but with the coming of
a new railroad to Lyman county new
towns grew up along the line, and old
Lyman rapidly lost prestige.

GREGORY LAND SALE.

Early next spring the lands remain
ing u~ndisposed of in Gregory county
will be sold by the government, the
transfer going directly from the gov
eminent to the purchaser without resi-
dence, the only limitation of the pur-
chase being that no n man be allow
ed to purchase more than GAO acres.
The sale will be either at public auc.
ton or sealed bids. AS most of the
been taken by homesteaders consists
of rough land, and most of it in small
tracts scattered about among home
steads, the purchasers will probably
be largely the holders of adjoining
lands. A report from the general land
Office showing the condition of Gregory
county lands October /, gives the re-
ceipts for the disposal Of lands at
81, 1851 At the time the bill for
opening was before congress the ques-
tion of the price of the lands was a
live one, the department insisting that
it should be high enough to reimburse
the government for the million dol
lars which was to 60 to the Indians
for the land. The receipts have al
ready exceeded that amount, and more
to follow.

Not long ago a farmer in Iowa went
to a harness dealer to buy a set of har-
ness. He found one that suited him
and the price was S45. The farmer
happened to remember that about a
dozen years ago that he had bought a
harness just like it from the same deal
er for $35 and he mentioned the fact.
The dealer went to his book and
found this to be true. Put" said the
dealer, my books show that you did
not pay cash for it because you did
not have the money. You hauled in 300
bushels Of corn and gave it to me for
the $35 harness. Now I'll tell you
what I'll do. If you will bring me 300
bushels of corn / will give you the $40
harness, also a double buggy harness
worth $35, and a single buggy harness
worth SIS, a 81 plush robe, q boys rid

Bee Cuckoo Of Africa Of Great Service
to the Natives and Protected
by Them.

One of the most sagacious of birds
is certainly the bee cuckoo. or moroc.
a little bird very like the English
sparrow.
It is found in various parts of Afri-
ca where wild bees abound. and, being
unable to help itself to the honey.
which is its favorite food. 1t resorts
to human aid.
Having discovered a swarm of bees,
1t flies to the nearest habitation, and
attracts by its cries of "Cherr, cherr.
cherr." the attention Of some of the
natives. 1t then flies OF in the direc.
ton of the nest. uttering its cry and
waiting for its followers to overtake
