Inn Names In Germany.

Germany probably holds the record
for out of the way signs and fantastic
inn names. The most absurd results
are usually obtained by the name OF
some animal with more or less un'
suitable object. The Comfortable
Chicken and the Cold Frog, both Of
them in Berlin, are certainly left In
the shade by the Angry Ant (Ort, In
Westphalia) and the Stiff Dog (Berlin)
The Lame Louise is an inn in suburb
Of Berlin, and not far from it is the
Thirsty Pelican. The Dirty Parlor, the
Bloody Bones. the Musical Cats. the
Fourhundredweight Man, and the
Boxers Den are all in Berlin Or the
neighborhood, and the Old Straw Bag
in Leipzig The Open Banghole is In
Stadtohen. in the Palatinate, and the
Shoulder Blade in Jerichow. The Last
Tear Is a landlords notion for the
name of bis inn, situated near a grave
yard, visited by returning mourners,
and is of frequent occurrence through
out the fatherland.

Unpretentious Views
By "A. H0mesteader."

NV friend and | are patching" it on
our claims, and for the sake of conf
panionshp often drop i'll on one an
other this time of the year with all
the characteristic familiarity and free
dom of our kind. While this being to-
gether of an evening we either play
an innocent game of cards or talk OF
what is uppermost i'll our minds, and
TO be brief there is no telling what
we do or do not discuss as to sub
iects. My friend is indisputably the
brightest scholar and deepest thinker
of the two, yet 50 modest that the
world would never hear of his ideas but
for my humble efforts to treasure up
few and present them to the edl-
tor of this valuable paper without COM
ment or establishment.
Il read that H. w. Campbell was
to speak at the Implement Dealers
meeting in Bismarck" said my friend
last evening. who and what is that
man. asked |. Collecting his thoughts
for lengthy explanation my friend
went on to say that Mr.. Campbell as
originator of scientific dry farming
system is man of considerable I'M
portance to farmers from Northern
Canada to the Gulf of Mexico, thence
west to the Pacific Ocean. Starting
out with the conviction that the crop
failures of the west were result OF
lack of moisture rather than lack OF
soil fertility, Mr.. Campbell by nearly
score of years of study and demon
STATIONS has succeeded in building up
great system of soil culture to con-
serve the moisture III semi arid re-
gions. Already the system is prac-
ticed more or less III our western
states and foreign countries. However
it seems that Our best agrlculturlsts
have been slow to openly countenan-
ance the Campbell system, yet bulle-
tins issued by our department of ag-
riculture recommend practically the
same methods. An illustration show
ing results of the Campbell system:
A man at Powers Lake, N. D., who
followed these new methods in 1910,
harvested - bushels of wheat per acre
while the average for the state this
year perhaps does not exceed FIVE and
half bushels per acre. Since | be-
gan to enquire into this system | look
upon North Dakota with optimistic
eyes in spite of last years crop failure:
OF course system that has required
such length Of time to perfect: and so
different from common methods, call-
moot be explained in an hour or an
evening, but it would be time we'll
invested if we farmers post ourselves
upon the Campbell system so as to be
able to begin practicing it next spring.
Might mention that many of our neigh
bors manifest a great interest already

A STRANGE Colony.

The Colonia Cosme, on the Paraguay
above Asuncion, is one Of the most Gu
rious in the world. The members Of
the colony make or grow everything
they want and import nothing. The
workmen have seven hours work a
day aud earn, not money, but time.
Their wages are hours and half hours.
These they sometimes save up till they
have a week in hand and then go off
on an excursion. II a man wants a
chair or table he pays for 1t in hours
Of work, which ore deducted from the
balance to his credit Three men went
of up the river in canoe for a three

way and yet had some money in hand

TIL: BIG FIVE.

What five women have done most tc
advance the cause OF women III the
world?
In answer to this question, one New
Yorker submitted this list: Elizabeth
Cady Stanton, Susan B. Anthony, Julia
Ward Howe, Catherine Beecher and
Mrs. Anna Shaw.
Another contestant omitted Gather
inc Beecher and included Belva Lock-
wood.
Practically all the women who sub
mtted lists, failed to mention Mrs.
Pankhurst and her two militant daugll-
tiers. This would seem to indicate that
the English suffregette leaders are moi
universal favorites in America.
Frances f. Willard, Clara Barton and
Florence Nightingale are other women
whose names were included i'll some OF
the lists.
Still other lists contained the name
of Mary Lyon. the founder Of Mt
Holyoke college.
An examination of all the names
submitted shows that the compilers be-
lieved all efforts of women in times
past are insignificant as compared
with the strides the friends and de-
Tenders of women have made i'll the
last century.

The legislature will be a busy place
for the rest of the session. There are
a number of measures to be carried out
if the platform of the Republican party
is to be enacted into law, and there has
been very little legislation enacted so
far. The work in the committees how
ever, has been quite thorough and there
will be great deal less work to be
done on the floor than usual for the
reason that the members, as rule, are
taking the advice of the committees
where the bills that have been presented
have been threshed out. The resolution
that has been offered making it inpos-
sible to introduce bills after the forty
fifth day oft he session without the
consent OF at least two-thirds Of the
body before whom it is desired 10 in
troduce it, will also cut down the
work for the rest of the time. While it
is to be expected that there will be a
flood of bills for the next couple Of
days. there will be very few after
that and the real work of the session
will 60 along much faster than has
been the case for the fore part of the
session.
