A poor stick always sticks in a

Every dog must scratch his own

No man enjoys having his ex-

Any house filled with content

of thirst with fire-water.
A woman has to move lively to
keep up with the fashions.
The auctioneer is always an opti-

When a good work goes on it
leaves some folks away behind.
1t seems easy for the land boom

Every man can find something to

Big ability can always be dis

The Worlds All Right

The worlds All Nght
My boy, it's a pretty good world
you'll find,
If you look straight ahead and don't
look behind,
Though it SHOWS sometimes,
And it blows sometimes,
And you think it is flooded with
woes sometimes,
It's a glad old world,
And a sad old world
Or a bad old world,
When you make it so.
But just bear in mind, wherever
you 60,
That somewhere the grand old
suns aglowl
Git up and git
And a lot of grit,
Are the things that label a man
as fit"
There's a shadow here and a dark
place there.
But you'll find the sunshine is
everywhere,
If you look for it, Chirk upl Elate
Rub the word ''Pessimist" off your
slate!
Meet the knocks with grin,
But never give in,
And sooner or latet, you're bound
to win!

The Homebuilder.

old time farmer to Book farming
that l come to you with some
timidity.
In looking over the field | can but
think we owe much of the present
day advancement along agricultur-
al lines to his seeming indifference
and his stolid rejection of the I'M
tried methods. Had he, IN eager
ness, attempted to try out for him
self the theories presented for his
guidance, advanced mostly by visio-
nary, illogical and impractical men
the sequence would have been de-
lay in the proven adaptability of
practices and theories so successful
ly followed today.
Although he realized the infor-
nation needful, and in the form de-
sired could not come in time for
him to reap a profit, he gladly
shouldered the burden of taxation
to lay firm and lasting foundation
and erect a superstructure suited
to the work of experimentation to
decisively determine practices and
methods that could wiring from the
soil greater yields with less cost in
money and muscle than he and his
contemporaries were able to pro-
duCe.
His wisdom is reflected in the az
ricultural colleges of the several
safes and the Department of Agri-
culture in Washington, and while
these institutions did not come
within his perspective, they none
the less came in answer to his stub
born resolve to not leave the rut
until hewas assured a better track.
We, now are all proud of the
achievements of these institutions
and as peers of any profession greet
the farmers sons and daughters
who leave their portals and return
to the homesteads to give the re-
suits of their training to the better
ment of agriculture.
However, it is my purpose to re
mind the farmer of today that the
apex of success or perfection has
not been reached. Intensive Gull
ture, which is seldom given when
operations are on an extensive
scale, seems to be an essential fac
tor in maintaining soil fertility and
European farmers seem to have
outstripped US in the application OF
this science, their yields increasing
through centuries of tillage while
our own are diminishing through
decades.
We cannot screen our shiftless-
ness, as our forefathers may have
done. with a seeming contempt for
Book farming" We are now in
the open, Book farming" is a
thoroughly demonstrated work, easy
of application in the every day
operations on the farm, and we
must apply it if we expect to keep
in even hailing distance of the van
guard in the onward march of agri-
cultural achievement.
The city neighbors are coming to
a realization that they have di-
rect interest in the productiVeness
of the farms, the price of products
forcefully reminding them that if
they are to continue to eat, yields
per acre must increase, and they
are urging the farmer almost to the
point of scolding him, to redoubIe
his efforts, apply this knowledge so
dearly bought for him and so
lavishly given.
The American farmer, am sure
will measure up to the task of
feeding America, and it is my hope
he will make farm environment so

Judge Ragland's year on the
bench has demonstrated another
thing which will be a source of
qualification to the public. There
will be no nickle in the slot divorces
in his court. Cases of this kind are
to be adjudged strictly on their
merits and litigants must show
some other cause for divorce than
the mere fact that they do not wish
to live together. which is ,.all too
common. The check will prove to
be a healthy one throughout his
circuit. Judge Ragland is fulfilling
to the letter every prediction made
