MINISTER'S AND SALARIES.
Should Be Well Paid-Not Objects OF
Charity.

ChaTlty.
The announcement that fifty-seven
members of the Upper Iowa Metho-
dist conference have decided to leave
the ministry and engage in secular
pursuits is rather startling. Most of
them are young men who have been
licensed to preach during the last few
wears. They found that after spending
from four to seven years in the univer-
sity and seminary, they were expected
to move to small towns and country
charges and there to be reimbursed
never more than 500 for years Ia
Dor, and in most cases less than S5OO.
1t has been said that if the average
minister had invested the money spent
in getting his education at per cent
interest, compounding 1t, he would
have had at the time when he enter
ed actively the pulpit a capital suff-
cient to bring him a yearly income as
great if not greater than he would be
paid by a church for his services. we
do not know whether this is true or
not, but in any event 1t approaches
very closely to the truth.
School teachers and ministers, who
must be most apt In learning and eX-
act in their studies, are expected to
live the best they can on almost
nothing, presumably because they are
engaged in a work than which there
is none more important in this or any
other country.
We do not believe that because a
man dedicates himself to the ministry
he should be denied the most ordinary
comforts of life. The record of unselI-
ish men who have labored for the spir-
tiual and moral welfare of the people
of this country is a noble one, and also
one which should bring the blush OF
shame to the face of every Christian
man. Apparently because they were
always willing to aid they were denied
help. They have in many instances
been treated as objects of charity.
whereas, in fact, they were most de-
serving of reward from the great pub
lie. Perhaps the radical protest of the
Iowans may be productive of revo-
luton in the mode of supporting min
isters.-Charleston News and Courier.

1910 HIGH PRICES

The following court record of
"Auld Lang Syne" would indicate
that our fathers were as much con-
cerned 100 years ago about the high
price of living as we are today:
Records yellow with a century's
age were unearthed in the office of
clerk of court, Robert M. Mcfarland,
at Butler, Pennsylvania, recently
which show that high cost of living
crusade was in progress as early as
1904.
"a document filed with Judge
Moore in that year is signed by 100
citizens petitioning the court to set
stipulated price on provisions for
man and beast and on liquors in the
taverns of the country.
1.-THE petitioners prayed for re-
dress and asserted: 1t is the con-
sensus of opinion that rs cents for
a meal of victuals and twelve cents
for half pint of whiskey is an ex-
tortion, as whiskey has been pur-
chased for 40 cents a gallon, pork
for three or four cents a pound and
flour for So per cwt."
The records give no evidence as
to whether the prayer, which was
led by one Michael Martin, was ever
answered.

PLow DEEP

Exchange
J. E. Edgerton, publisher of the
Camas Prairie Courier, is an agri-
culturist of no mean ability, and
he is amply qualified to give advice
on farming. In the last issue of the
Courier he says.
In few days many farmers on the
Prairie will commence blowing and
seeding. The yield next fall will de-
pend on the care the ground receives
now. Careless farming Is an expen-
sive business any way you look at 1t.
and the ground you cultivate should
be worked thoroughly, even If YOU
must cut your acreage down.
1t is much better to get 40 bushels
of wheat off SO acres than to get
20 bushels off 80 acres. Many times
this much difference in annual yield
is cauesd by the careless planting.
Do not be afraid to harrow the
ground, for this puts the finishing
touch on your job.

HOW TO BUILD BRICK CISTERN
Should Be Underground and for Dura'
bility and Best of Service Be
Made Circular.
(ERED O SlRLEY.N


A urstern for the collection and
storage of roof water should be under
ground and, for durability and the
best of service, be made circular. Dig
hole ten to fifteen feet deep, and
from six to eight feet in diameter de-
pending on the quantity of water one
wants to store. The site selected
should be dry, for while a cistern can
be built so as to hold water it is al
most impossible to keep water out Of
it if there is a spring where the hole
is dug.
Take pains that the hole Is dug sym.
metrical, the sides smooth, and the
bottom oval For foundation, a
stone about two feet square should be
used. Beginning on this lay a two.
inch brick against the earth until the
wall is nearly to the top of the per-
pendicular sides where the thickness
should he increased to four inches.
About five feet from the top the wall
should be drawn in by tipping the
outer edge of the brick little at first
and until the upper outside of them Is
at an angle of about As degrees when
the arch is finished. A good mason
can easily do this. The top of the
arch should be about two feet below
the surface of the ground. The circu-
lar neck should extend to or little

An opening should be left near the
top OF the arch for an inflow, provided
with a short piece of iron pipe which,
cemented into the wall, rises an inch
or two above the surface of the
ground.
On the same level with the inflow
where it enters the cistern thers

MORE SATISFIED HOME SEEKERS

Shelley Pioneer
The car Of Iowa home seekers who
arrived here last week as the guests
of the Bingham County Land Co., left
Sunday night, very favorably i'm
pressed with the soil and climate of
this irrigated section. Five of them
invested in farm lands and their pur-
chases aggregate $4,000. The high
est price ever paid for land in this
neighborhood was reached when
Albert G. Christensen's farm was
sold. This farm which is contiguous
to town, cotnains 100 acres well fenc-
ed and in a high state of cultivation,
with good improvements. 1t was re-
claimed not many years ago from
sage brush by Mr.. christensen, one
of our most prosperous and respected
farmers who has parted with the best
farm in this section to S. H. Heaton
who has farmed in Iowa for forty
years, and expects to move on his ir-
rigated farm about the first of the
year. Until then Mr.. Christensen will
remain on the old homestead. w. H.
Harker's is another of the properties
that has been sold.

THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE

The loyal cooperation of state
presidents, and through them the
loyalty of the state, is shown in q
remarkable manner this month in re,
gard to the question blanks from the
general federation chairmen. Almost
all have responded with great pleas
ure in seeing that this work is car
ried out, one saying she would send
kilograms, if necessary, and see that
her state reported accurately the fine
work accomplished. Those appointed
to see to it's fulfillment in their re-
spective states have planned accom-
panying circulars, and postal cards to
follow up the dilatory ones. Taking
it all in all, we are hoping the ex-
pense of time, labor, and money will
be o wise contribution to the team

ton.
Question are coming in every mail
concerning the Biennial: Shall we be
permitted to bring family and club

Cincinnati in May? Is it true that
Cincinnati is as filled with coal black
as Pittsburg? Shall we plan for many
social functions or excursions? Who
will be the speakers? and many 9TH

Mrs. Bowernman followed with
our state club scholarship of which
she is the enthusiastic chairman. She
is confident of securing $500 by the
time of our next state meet. She

Mrs. Bowerman also mentioned the
Chas. Botsford gift of 100000 to
North Dakota and Idaho. Mr.. Bots
ford is from Boston and the Idaho
portion of this generous sum goes eX-
clusively to the Weiser Industrial

mans address, there was an earnest
discussion in regard to applying our

county superintendent heartily in
favor of including normal schools
because of the great need of teachers
with normal training, and why not
encourage and train native boys and
girls for the work.
