Licenses Expire thursday.

The action Of the council in ratify-
ing the wishes of the voters on the
license question last week has been
accepted as the proper thing to do.
and there is no particular excitement
over the fact that Redwood Falls
for the first time in over thirty
years. is to be without a licensed sa-
loon for full year, beginning Fri
day next.
While it is recognized that the
change carries with it an obligation
upon the law abiding people Of the
city to see to it that the laws are
enforced, it is not believed that there
will be any unsurmountable difficulty
about this. Backed by a vigorous
sentiment for enforcement, we be-
Iieve that Sheriff Schueller and Po-
liceman Lauterbach will be found
ready to do their part. as they have
always been in matters affecting the
good order and good name Of the
city. Those who are looking for trou-
BILE will do well to try it somewhere
else than in Redwood Falls.

Quality Farming Pays.

Few sections of the state can boast
OF a more enlightened bunch and
hence more prosperous lot of farm
ers than are those tributary to the
little city of Hutchinson, hence the
following from the Leader of that
city, is backed up by experienced
observation:
lt has taken years, and some
don't know it yet. but upon a lot of
Mcleod county have dawned the
fact that well bred horses, cattle
sheep, hogs, yes. and even chickens,
pay the better and so much better
that it is shortsightedness and stu
pidity to raise anything else. This
is called out by the frequency with
which farmers are seen driving
through town with crates on their
wagons containing some imported
pig or sheep or else they may have
fine Holstein. Shorthorn, Jersey or
Guernsey aboard or crate of chick
ems. This means that lot Of new
and better blood is going into the
flocks and herds Of Mcleod county
and occasionally there is a farmer
who has learned that he cannot af-
ford to SOW or plant seed that has
not been carefully tested. Hasten
the day when all of our farmers shall
have learned that the best stock and
the best methods in farming, stock
raising. dairying, fruit growing.
gardening, etc., on this rich and
high priced soil will make returns
larger and more certain. Then few
acres will suffice to keep family in
comfort and there will be more joy
on the farm because of intelligent
effort and the brain will do its share
with the hand in producing a liveli-
hood.

The saloons at Hector are a posi-

they affect US directly and personal

The saloons get our money. and in

the storekeepers are compelled
to wait. In most. cases we feel like
not getting the goods we really need

some do not look upon it that way.

this question. Financially and NOR

money, the tax PAYERS will he able

A Farmer on the License Question.

The following. which appeared in
a recent number of the Hector
mirror, is a forciDle statement Of
the attitude of a good many farm
ers toward the licensed saloon in
towns wdere they get their sup
plies and sell their produce. 1t was
written by farmer of Palmyra
township:
THE farmers out this way are
wondering what Hector is going
to do with the saloons when the
question comes up for settlement
eight or nine weeks hence. There
will be some in town who think we
have no business butting into affairs
concerning Hector, bnt | wish to
take issue with them on that score,
IT have lived here for more than
a dec ade. In the early days ! pat
ronized the saloons till / discovered
it was a losing game. Always |
went to tony with the firm resolu-
ton to come home sober but how
we'll | was able to keep that resolu-
ton is matter of adverse history.
There are many others Of us here
who look into the matter with sad
memories and we wish the people of
Hector would assist Us in removing
the temptations from VI and those.
who will follow as in life.
We know that the people in the
small towns like Hector are prone
to the belief that saloons reduce
taxes. Ir does not. Hector gets 4
am told 81, 5000 per year as saloon
license. Where do the saloons get
the money which ID returned 10 the
village? Do they take it from the
thin air? Do they Get the profits
from the same source? Right here
let me ask the voters and tax payers
of Hector one question: What has
become of the saloon money the
town has been getting all these
years? Investigate without preju-
dice and Ii you can render q con-
vincing report favorable to you in

Farmers Institute.

We are very glad to note that
there is to be Farmers Institute
at Redwood Falls MINI. on Tues
day and Wednesday, Jan. rs and 26.
The wonderful strides made in
farming and stock, raising during
the past few years are due largely
to the widespread distribution of
information along the various
branches of agriculture. A know
ledge of the experiences of success
full farmers is worth money to
every other farmer engaged in his
line of farming. Tn this day and
age when it is necessary to change
from one type of farming to an
other it is Of the greatest value to
the beginner in fruit. live stock or
other new undertaking to get
the views and experience of older
hands at the business.
The farmers Institutes are de-
signed to bring farmers together
to exchange ideas and help each
other. The regular Institute speak
ers are practical farmers and farm
home makers, and can be Of mat
erial assistance To every tiller OF
the soil in the community. The best
! farmers are the men who know
something about the things others
are doing and it has been noticed
many times that brightest and most
successful farmers are always
present at these gatherings.
We certainly feel that our read-
ers should make q special effort
to attend the institute.
The meetings will held in the
Court House at 10 d. m. and 1:3O
