majority Of our farmers are not
as wide awake as they should be
on the subject Of selecting and
planting good seed. So | urge
you to not get careless about
this matter. but get very busy
and don't let up until you have
secured the best seed that you
can no matter what crop you are
planting. This is a very i'm

Taking into consideration that
we have a fine season in the land
in many instances good seed beds

look very promising. let's not fall
down on crop just by being
careless enough to plant any
old kind of seed. Referring to
the old adage that like be-gets

or satisfactory results from the
of inferior seeds.

The shooting of Col. Roosevelt
in Milwaukee Monday was one
of those regrettable incidents
which can never be anticipated
nor prevented. His assailant
was insane and it is fortunate
for his victim that the bullet
which ploughed through his
breast was hindered in its prog
ress by sufficient Instructions to
save his life.
Three Of the last nine presi-
dents elected have been assasi
mated. In none of the monachies
of Europe has the head been re-
moved so often by the hand OF
an assassin. The latest of
these was the King of Italy a
few years ago and prior to that
time the father Of the present
Emperor Of Germany was
murdered.
The entire country sympathizes
with Mr.. Roosevelt and wishes
for him a speedy recovery.
