THAWED OUT FROZEN HORSE

A few days ago. as the story
goes. M. Jepsen had occasion to
burn the carcass of a dead horse.
After he had the fire started he
went home and left the blaze do
its work. In his absence an old
plug Of horse nosed up 10 the
fire and found that the heat felt
good with the thermometer at 20
below. He laid down and was
soon in deep sleep. Mr.. Jepsen
returned to >see how the fire was
burning and was surprised to find
another horse. He gave the plug
a. 'kick but he had no more life in
him than rock. 1t is just as easy
to roast two horses as one when
the brush is handy so he covered
the old horse with brush and
set it fire. Then something
happened. Pieces of burning
brush went flying through the air
in all directions while the old
skate made hee line for an open
gate. After Matthias recovered
from his shock, he looked around
to be sure that no one was witness
to his experience, but found that
Otto Hussman had been a spect-
ator. Otto swears that it Was the
best show he ever witnessed while
Matthias is uncomunicative more
than he thawed out a "dead"
horse. Record-Cuorier.

NEEDS LOYAL SUPPORT

The work of turning the past
years beet crop into sugar is over
and the factory has been closed for
the season, and the factory force
is out hustling for beet acreage to
insure a good heavy campaign next
fall.
The first white graduated sugar
was turned out Monday and
hundreds of sample sacks were
handed out to visitors. The editor
Of this paper enjoyed the luxury
Of home produced sugar on his
table. There were. hundreds .of
visitors at the factory during the
time it was in operation and the
management extended every
courtesy to all who called.
1t is needless to say that the
investment of 100000 in this
enterpris. means good deal and
it will be absolutely necessary for
the farmers to grow a large
acreage Of beets in order to keep
the factory running. Without a
big acreage, the factory cannot be
maintained, and the community
and the state cannot afford to let
such an enterprise stand idle at a
season when it should be grinding
out dollars for the farmers.
Ways and means must be provided
to supply the factory with beets.
Every farmer should put his
shoulder to the wheel and d. his
part.
People are either wings or
weights to public enterprises.
