Going to Buy an Auto?

If you are contemplating the pur-
chase of an automobile for use the
coming season, we urge you to care
fully consider the Maxwell line be-
fore deciding what machine to buy.
We believe there is no machine
manufactured in America that will
give such perfect satisfaction and
such absolute reliability as the Max
well. Nor is there a machine that
is so easy riding, so easy to operate,
or so economical in the use of gaso-
line, upkeep, repairs, etc, as the
Maxwell. For the same money we
do not think it can be excelled. Ask
any person who owns a Maxwell;
that is the best recommendation of
car. We have the exclusive agen-
cy for the Maxwell machines in Win
neshiek county, and will be pleased
to submit catalogue, prices, etc.
Don't put off buying until spring.
Then you may not be able to get
delivery of machine before late in
the summer. Come in and talk to
us about the Maxwell.

More Truth Than Poetry.

1t is a shame and disgrace to this
country that the elements of edu-
cation are SO largely abandoned. 1t
is now considered much more i'm
portant that child should be able
to name all the bones in the body
than that he should be able to add
up a column of figures, that he
should be able to dissect a grass
hopper rather than be able to make
the extensions in an ordinary bill
of lading or write a letter clearly,
with all the words properly spelled.
Since the multiplication table has
been abandoned, since spelling
down" has been given up as ar
chaic, and since arithmetic has been
tabooed, we have been turning out
thousands of boys and girls each
year who are utterly unequipped for
their duties, and who have the
vaguest notion of anything at all
that is Observation-Disclosures In

THE PRIMARY BALLOT.
Order of Candidates to Rotate in
Counties of the State, and in
Precincts for County
Offices.

The approaching Iowa primaries
will be unique this year in that for
the first time the rotation of names
of candidates will be put into prac-
tice. This is the result of the ac-
ton of the last general assembly,
where the fact was forcefully dis
closed that the old system of alpha
betical arrangement of candidates
on the ballot was manifestly unfair.
Accordingly law was passed pro-
viding a changing of the names of
the candidates for each office by
counties. To make adjustment i'm
partial. the secretary of scate was
directed by the law to arrange the
counticG in order according to the
largest vote cast in each for govern
or at the last preceding state e'ec-
ton. The law further provided that
in the first county, which very ma
turally is Polk, the candidates
should appear upon TIE ballot in
alphabetical order 1t provided
that in the next largest county the
names of candidates appearing at
the top in the first county should
go to the foot in the second county.
That in the third county the name
at the head of the list in the second
county should go to the foot, and
so on, giving each candidate for
every Office his turn at the top.
This list mas just been compiled
by Secretary of State Hayward, and
is ready for the blank ballots to be
sent out to the ninety-nine counties
in Iowa. This arrangement places
Winneshiek county the thirty-first
in the list. The county auditors,
under the law, will arrange the ro-
tation of candidates for nomination
in districts and counties according
to precincts, arranged in the order
of their voting power the same as
the counties, so that the order of
the candidates for county offices will
rotate on the ballot as we'll.

Keep This i'm Mind This Year.

Iowa has a law requiring the
destruction of noXious weeds on all
highways and lands adjacent. These
weeds include cocklebur, Canada
thistle, quack grass, wild mustard,
dock, buckhorn, horse nettle, button
weed and burdock, all of them
enemies of the farmer. The law re-
quires township trustees, road SUI
pervisors and county supervisors to
meet yearly to consider the best
methods of road building and of ex'
terminating weeds. Country roads
are generally disfigured in midsum
mer by high weeds, sometimes o.
such rank growth that the driveway
is merely a narrow lane through {
thicket of noxious weeds. The peo
pie of Iowa propose to change thi:
condition. Well kept roads, smooth
and free from rank weed growth vi
the sides, are an inspiration for bet
ter farming, besides being much
more attractive for travellers. Fight
ing weeds is one of the most strenu
Gus and expensive tasks of the farm
er. 1t is much more difficult
when the roadsides are permitted tc
be breeding places for seeds that
become scattered in every direction
The good farmer, who keeps the
weeds down on his land, is not get
ting a square deal when his neigh
Dor is permitted to let weeds grow
on adjoining fields and the roadsides
are full of them There is no more
reason for permitting noXious
weeds to grow than for allowing any
dent.

A New Dish.

When wishing a new and mex
pensive dish, try Drowned rice, eth
er as cereal with cream or as a
vegetable with butter or tomato
sauce. Brown the dry kernels in
the oven until they are the color of
ripe wheat and put them away to
cook when convenient. A cup of
these with two cupfuls of hot water
and half a teaspoonful of salt can
be steamed in the top of a double
boiler in forty minutes. Then the
rice should be dry and light, al
though the kernels will not remain
whole.

IN MEMORIAM.
RESOLUTIONS in Memory of the Late
;. Y. Potter. Passed by Col.
Hughes Post, No. 16S,
q. A. X.
DEBORAH, Iowa, May 2, 191,

DEBORAH, Iowa, May 2, 1910.
Comrades:-
Your Committee appointed to
draft resolutions on the death of our
Comrade, S. V. Potter, beg leave to
submit the following:-
WHEREAS, The door of Col.
Hughes Post has again opened to
the silent messenger whose coming
no man knoweth. Another COM
panion lives only IN memory; an
other link has gone in the circle of
comradeship. Taps have sounded
over the silent form of a Veteran.
whom reveille will only awaken on
lifes eternal morn.
Simeon V. Potter was born on
March 1st, 1871, at Fort Plain, n
Y, and died at Calmar, Iowa, April
18th, 1910. Comrade Potter in mis-
business transactions was the soul
of honor, and in all his relations of
life, he sought the true and the
right as he saw it. He was pa
triot, not in name but in deed; he
loved his country because it was to
him, his fellow man; he offered
himself to die for it, because he be-
lieved it to be his duty.
Our dead companion was not a
man of show, life to him was real
and earnest, and he was content to
be an earnest worker in the ranks
of human life. He worked long and
we'll Others may have done more
than he to mark their pathway
through life, but none tried to do
more for God, Home and Fellow
men. There are others whose names
have been sounded more loudly by
the trumpets of fame, but none
whose memory will be longer, or
more gratefully cherished by their
intimate companions in the walks of
life.
We bid him then farewell, in the
hope, and faith, that the work done
by him here on earth, has won for
him a blissful Immortality.
RESOLVED: That our Chapter
be draped in mourning for thirty
days. That a copy of these resolu-
lions be spread upon the records of
our Post Also that a copy be pre-
sented to bis surviving widow and
life long companion.

Why, Yes, of Course.

The wife of literary man of the
Indiana school, who had taken up
chicken raising as side issue, was
telling of the poor success she had
with a brood of eleven chickens
They seemed to be doing all right
for few days, she said, and then,
one after another, they all died in
the coop.
What did you feed them?" ask
ed the wife OF a farmer neighbor.
Feed them?" exclaimed the
authors help-mate. Il didn't feed
them; / thought a healthy young
pullet like that should have milk
enough for her chicks. Every

WOMAN COMPLAINS
AGAINST INVENTOR
Arrested on Charge of OBJ
tanning Money Under
Pretense

Paul e. Oswald, an inventor living
at 1884 West Adams, with offices in
Temple block, and son-in-law Of Fred
F. Wheeler, millionaire capitalist, was
arrested last night by Deputy Con-
stable Benjamin on charge of OBJ
tanning money under false pretenses,
preferred against him by Mary S. Nc
Lain.
1t Is alleged in the complaint Os-
valid sold $50 worth of stock in the
Stewart Oil Expansion company to
Mrs. McLain on the representation
that he could produce three and a
half barrels of alcohol from one bar
rel of crude oil without any residue.
at a cost of 31A cents gallon.
1t is also alleged he represented to
her that he had built plant for the
production of his invention and that
he had sold his entire right and in
terest in the invention with the eX-
elusive United States rights to the
Stewart Oil Expansion company, in
which he sold her the stock
When Mrs. McLain made inquiry at
the office of the Stewart Oil EXpan-
sion company as to particulars regard
ing the stock and the location of the
plant she discovered they did not
know aything about the invention.
She Immediately made an investiga-
ton as to the representations which
had been made to her by Oswald and
discovered them to be false, where
upon she had the warrant for his ar
rest issued.
Oswald was last night taken before
Justice Summarized, out of whose
court the complaint was issued, and
his bond fixed at $250O, which his
father-in-law, Wheeler, furnished. The
date of his preliminary hearing will be
SET later.
