Farmers Attention.

General Sherman said: "War is
hell" What is hail
AS you we'll know this is the period
of lightning, hail and cyclone storms
and if you have not already got your
crops, buildings and other farm pro-
perty protected against these storms
and fires now is the time to get busy
and not put off until tomorrow what
should be done today.
Last season. as we'll as this, there
was hail storm all around US and last
season it done considerable damage in
our own county, and just recently we
had a severe wind and cyclone storm
that completely demolished a large
share of the farm buildings as we'll
as town property. and much to my
surprise. l learned that there were a
guod many of these unfortunates who
we're not protected by even ore cent
of insurance.
Insurance is a mighty LITTLE
thing to get, but great BIG thing to
have. Don't say you can't afford to
do it. You can't afford not to do it.
The storms are not your fault but not
being insured is. You can t depend on
the weather but you can on Good in
surance.
We represent some of the strongest
and most reliable Companies in the
Northwest and if interested in becom-
ing protected or renewing your policies
we will be pleased to see that you
will be properly taken care of by call
ing at the Office. or writing me and
one of the sub-agents will Immediate

THE SAME YARD STICK.
Duty of Board Explained by
Tax Commission.
XXIV-.EQUALIZATION BY COUN-
TY BOARDS

AS explained in preceding article.
three bodies of an official charcter re-
veiw the work of the assessors in the
valuation of the real and personal
property of the state for purposes of
taxation, namely. the town or local
board of reveiw. the county board of
equalization, and the tax commission.
The theory of the equalization of
assessments is that the town or local
board of reveiw should equclize be-
tween individuals and classes, the coun
ty board between assessment districts,
and the tax commission between
counties.
The county commissioners and the
county auditor constitute the county
board of equalization. This board
meets at the court house on the third
Monday in July, being July 18th of
this year, and may continue in
session and adjourn from time to time
during four weeks.
After each member has subscribed
to an oath "fairly and impartially to
perform his duties' the board pro-
ceeds to examine and compare the re-
turns of assessment of property of the
several towns or districts of the count
ry. and to equalize the same by making
such increases or decreases as may
be necessary so that each tract or lot
of real property, and each article or
class of personal property shall be
fairly and equitably assessed. If all
property were listed and assessed at
it's true and full value as provided by
law, there would be but little work
for boards of equalization to do. but
under the existing custom of assess
ing property at varying percentage
of value in different taxing districts
the work of equalization is necessar-
lily an important part of our assess
ment system.
No one can reasonably expect the
board to make an absolutely perfect
equalization of assessed values. That
is an ideal which never has and perhaps
never will be attained. The best
that can be expected is to approx mate
| this ideal. The valuation of property
for purposes of taxation is largely a
matter of good judgment and intelli-
gent discrimination. This is especi
ally true of personal property. When
these qualities are fairly and imparti
ally applied to each taxing district of
a county reasonably uniform, and
hence equitable assessment will fol-
low.
The most important thing to be
kept in mind by county boaros is that
the same standard of valuation-the
Isame yard stick should be applied to
all the taxable property of the county.
Uniformity of valuation-the placing
of all of the towns of the county on
the same basis so that the assessment
of property of the same kind shall
be at substantially the same percentage
of value on each and all of the towns
this, rather, than high or low assess
ment, is the desirable end to be attain
ed by the county board of qualization.

One Reason Why Children Die.

So close is the present day connec-
tion between the city and country.
that the habits of cleanliness of farm
ers. especially those who sell milk, has
a close relation to the number of
deaths of young children. July. Aug
ust and September are the months
when the greatest number of small
children die of intestinal diseases.
1t has been found that these same
months are the ones in which milk con-
tains the largest number of bacteria.
the high point in both cases being
August.
The bacteria in milk which a grown
person may drink and never know it
often causes the death of children.
The bacteria cannot be seen, and un-
less attention has been called to it,
the farmer does not kaow how they
get in the milk. But no milk is abb
solutely free from these germs, and
they grow with marvellous rapidity,
especially if the milk is warm. This
is why milk should be cooled and kept
cool after it comes from the COW,
and of course great care should be
taken to prevent dirt of any sort on
the COW or around the milk pail. No
one wants to be even unconscious
cause of the death of child.

ORGAN RECITAL
At the Methodist Church, Fr::-
day Evening.

A large, new, double manuel, pedal
base, philharmonic, Estey Organ.
recently placed in the Methodist
Church, will be installed for service
this Friday evening, at 8:15 O'Clock,
by means of grand recital and con-
cert, for the benifit of the organ fund
to be given by Mr.. Hamlin H. Hunt,
of Minneapolis, assisted by local tai
ent.
Mr.. Hunt is considered in musical
circles as one of the most famous pipe
organists of the central north west.
The very facts that he held the posi-
tions of official pipe organist at both
the Buffalo and the st. Louis Exposi-
tions, that he is now the pipe organist
in the large Plymouth Congregational
Church of Minneapolis, and that he
is now the organist for the famous
Minneapolis Symphony Orchestra,
speak eloquently of his ability. This
will be an opportunity to hear the
most famous pipe organist that ever
came to the city OF Morris.
Mr.. Hunt will be ably assisted in
the concert by Miss Margaret Eckes
who will render one of her popular
vocal solos; Mr.. Fred Hoyer, the
blind vocalist of the musical depart
ment of the FairbauIt School will
render one of his popular German
solos; Miss Francis P Laphman, the
instructor of methods in the West
Central School of Agriculture. will
read one of her popular selections !;
also popular selection by the Nor
ris City Male Quartet.
Every one ought to attend this re-
.cital and concert. General admission
SO cents. Come and hear the new
organ, and help in the price of the
admission to pay for it.
The new organ is a gem of beauty,
being gothic in design. beautiful and
artistic to the eye, is the largest pipe
tone reed organ ever built, and re-
presents the latest development in
the art of church reed organ manu-
facture. With its twelve comG lete
sets of reeds, eac one of which ex-
tends the entire length of the double
manuels and pedals that respond in
stantly to the slightest touch of the
fingers, giving the organ a range of
tone equal to those produced by 572
pipe, pipe organ, controlled by 16
different stops, together with the
ready action of all the couplers,
mechanical devices, and accessories
used il the construction of the
modern pipe organ, renders it capable
of producing great volume suitable
for chorus work, as we'll as mellow,
yet sonorous tones, most pleasing to
the ear, that are the most suitable
for solo work and sacred devotional
service.
The organ is the 1856. 288th built
by the Estey Company, and is guar
anteed for 25 years against the neces-
sity of returning. and the necessity
of any repairs due to defects that
may arise in material or workman
ship.
Every one should attend the recital
en- Friday evening, and hear this,
the finest organ in the city, manipu,
tated at its best. by the famous or.
ganist of the central northwest.

Ball Games.
FOURTH OF JULY GAME.

Before one of the largest crowds
that ever attended ball game on
the local diamond. the Morris team
suffered defeat at the hands OF the
speedy Alexandria team. The weather
in the morning looked little threat
ening buHthe clouds cleared away in
the Afternoon and left an ideal day
for a ball game,
Lefty Miller the clever port-wheeler
of the local squad was selected to do
the pitching for Morris and Bracket
was chosen to fill same position
for the visitors. Miller upheld his
strike-out record during the fray and
at the end had counted up twelve
who took the long walk to the bench.
Lefty was little more liberal
with his hits than his opponent but
considering the heavy hitting ability
of Alex he made a good showing.
"Peppery" Stevenson of the visitors
who has been doing the clouting for
the visitors in the first game was
struck out four times in five trips to
the play
Morris was decidedly weak at the
bat and to this fact can be credit
ed their defeat. Brackett held the
locals hitless and scoreless until the
seventh inning when our own got
busy with two hits and a sacrifice
which netted them one run.
Alexandria has been conceded to
have one of the fastest aggregations
of semi professionals in the state and
they gave the Morris team credit with
having given them the hardest games
of their season. The first game was
won by Alex on fuke by the score
of 3 to 2 and the second encounter
was as close, being 5 and 4.
GAMES SINCE THE FOURTH.
The following is the list of the
games played since the Fourth of
July. All the games save one were
very close and hard fought contests
and if Morris had some of the luck.
they would have probably come out
on top. Ray Walker a new man
from Rochester in the Minny League
has accepted terms with the local
management and his presence in the
short field position will fill up long
felt want. Another nan is expected
to join the team shorty. His name
iseWeidIe and he has the honor of
leading the hitters of the recently
disbanded Minny League.

st. Bernard, April 3.-(Special )-The faculty and student body of St. Bernard gathered in solemn assembly in the dra- matic hall Friday evening for the purpose of hearing the result of the recent eX amlnations. After the reading of the re- ports, the Rev Boniface Seng, o. s. B.. vice president and director addressed the students. He said, in part. that generally speaking he was pleased to note a decided improvement in the re- ports and hoped that the good work would continue, so that the final exami- nations would prove successful for the graduates, and also afford promotion to the undergraduates. Choice of avocation and honesty of purpose should be splendid inducement for earnest endeavor to excel He urged each student to keep well in mind the end for which he is striving to fit himself.

TENANTS FAIL IN
 EFFORT TO BOYCOTT


 Dublin April 13.-- (Specia1)--A sur prising ending to a relentless boycott, which began five years go in the Coun- ty Galway, is announced. In November, 1907. dispute arose between MT. Wal ter Joyce of Corgary House, Castle Blalkeney, County Galway, and his ten ants as to the reductions in their rent which resulted in the tenants refusing to pay anything unless they received an abatement of 35 per cent. Three days later five of MT. Joyces hands suddenly left his employment He was soon with out q single man to do anything on farm of 1900 acres, and had to get sup plies by post from a distance. as noth- ing would be sold to him locally. Gaps were made in his fences that his cattle might wander.
 In the early months he got man from the south of Ireland, but he and his laborer had to have police protec- tion while on their way to and from mass at Menlough. On several occa- sions the laborer was attacked. There were six policemen stationed in his house. Having waited six months, Mir Joyce issued 34 eiectment civil bills. Then in June. 1908. the tenants appeared at Corgary House and announced their intention to pay their rents and all legal costs. The following months, all except four, against whom decrees were after- wards obtained, paid their rents.
 Today MT. Joyce sends the newspa- pers an apology, which he received from his tenants It is signed by 32 of them and by the parish priest of Aenlough as a witness.
