PRETTY HOME CAN
BE MADE VERY EASILY
(By Mrs. e. p. Turner.)

In idle moments, when work is
slack, and time hangs heavily, the
whole family should devote its ef-
forts to identifying the yard and
cleaning up the premises. Lots of
times it gets too hot to work all day
in the fields and the SADIE of the house
beneath some tree affords cool spot
where spare time can be utilized in
planting flowers and vines.
Nothing adds to the beauty of a
home as much as attractive gardens
and shady walks. and these environ
ments can be secured with little ef-
fort or expense. A creeping vine
alongside the house or on the veranda
will not only prove attractive, but will
keep the air cool within the house
as well.
A gravel walk from the house to
the barn and to the front gate will
add both looks and value to your
property.

TEXAS INDUSTRIAL
CONGRESS AT FAIR

The Texas Industrial Congress, in
order to meet its friends at the State
Fair at Dallas, has taken a booth in
the Agricultural building, and invites
them to call there and register. II
has installed model to show the ef-
fects of surface washes on hillside
farms. Two hillsides are represented
one upon which a cover crop is grow
ing, the other bare, with lake at the
foot of each. On the hillside with
the cover crop the run-off water is
small and the lake at the foot is clear
on the bare hillside the~runoff is heavy
and muddy, and the lake is also
muddy, showing that in one case there
is little or no loss of soil while i'll the
other the farm is being stripped OF
it's power to grow crops and the farm
er of his chance to prosper. Thus the
lesson is taught that sloping lands
should not be left bare to the winter
rains, but should be planted to barley,
oats, wheat or other crops that will
save the soil. The suggestion is also
made that reservoirs can and should
be constructed to impound the water
for farm uses, for stock and for irri-
CATION.
Maps and pictures showing in a
graphic way the work of the Congress
have a place in the booth, and rep
resentative is present to welcome Wis
itors, explain the model, distribute
farm bulletins, and show all who call
every courtesy possible.

REV. BOYNTON ADDRESSES
CONGREGATIONAL COUNCIL
Address Full Of Optimism as to Pres.
ent state Of Christianity
Throughout the Country.

Kansas City. Mo-. Oct. pa dis
tinct tone of optimism as to the pres
ent state of Christianity rang through
the address of the Rev. Nehemiah
Boynton, Of Brooklyn, N. Y, who,
as retiring moderator of the organiza-
! ton, addressed the National Council
of Congregational churches here to-
! night.
"All efforts to install the material
istic idea OF the universe fall by their
own weight" he said. Every theory
of the universe needs God to make
it workable. Mankind is still incur
ably religious, and the instinct of re-
ligion, never more than today, asks
its brave questions, claimed its un-
ecipsed hopes and initiates its inspir.
ing adventures.
Every intelligent man knows the
changed point of view regarding
knowledge of the recent years. The
scientific spirit greatly has enlarged
the area of our religious facts. The
historical spirit has sent in new rela-
tionships the facts which were ours
in the world of yesterday while the
modern study Of the Bible has given
the Book of Ages new and firmer
setting in the heart of the living pres
ent. Whether one welcomes these
changes or not, they are here and con-
gregationalism has no more outstand.
ing obligation today than to define her
attitude toward modern truth with
sympathy and with courage. There is
conservatism which is to be respect
ed. 1t is in form intelligent, but reluct-
ant. 1t insists that positions shall be
fully earned before they are generally
allowed. Such conservatism has al
ways been Of real assistance. Every
, chariot even the chariot of the Lord,
needs brakes. but there is conserva-
tism which is reactionary, obscuratn.
ist prides itself about not changing
its mind and holding fast positions of
yesterday despite the assured conclus-
ions of the intelligence of today, and
that kind of conservatism is as uncon-
gregational as it is unavailing.
"Congregationalism has few more
serious concerns than those which
gather about her ministry. In our in

THE PIERRE MONITOR FOUND.

The Pierre Monitor, the miniature
battleship launched at Pierre on Mem.
orial day, which was sent adrift in the
Missouri river in honor of the departed
sailors and seaman, has been located in
the vicinity of Wheeler, 8. D., where it
has become stranded on an island. This
little boat has had great struggle and
expects to reach its destination, that of
New Orleans, Louisiana, as she is billed
to the Honorable Mayor of this great
southern city, which has advised the
Sons of Veterans, of Pierre, that she will
be given royal welcome as soon as it
arrives. This is without doubt the first
of its kind ever launchedin this manner
and the Sons of Veterans, of Pierre, are
to be congratulated on their novel idea.
The boat is nine feet long by three feet
wide, painted white, has two turrets
with four imitation guns. In each of
the turrets is information of all kinds
telling what to do with the boat besides
postal cards addressed to the Secretary
of Sons of Veterans at Pierre, stating
that anyone finding the boat and send
ing on her way will be presented with q
fine souvenir of Pierre. Here's hoping
The Pierre Monitor will reach the har.
Dor of New Orleans before cold weather.

SALE OF ROTTEN EGGS.
State Food and Drug Department Takes
Measure Against Sale of Rotten
Eggs In South Dakota.

The State Food and Drug Commits.
sioner is taking vigorous methods to
enforce the law against the sale of rot
ten eggs in South Dakota. A prosecu.
ton was made Saturday at De Smet of a
buyer who makes 1t a practice to pur-
chase eggs as they come and sell them
without Gambling or other sorting. In
spector A. Prestwick, of Summit, secured
the evidence and the offender plead
guilty to the charge. Other cases are
under investigation and further prose.
cutions may be expected. A campaign
of education is being carried on for the
improvement of conditions at the pro-
ducing end of the egg business, inspec-
tors for the department having placed
in nearly every grocery store in the
state copies of a placard furnished by
the United States Bureau of Animal In
dustry. This placard shows plainly the
different effects of heat on the fertile
and infertie egg, and points out the ad
vantages of producing infertile eggs.
In addition about 10000 copies OF a
department bulletin dealing with the
care aud handling of eggs have been dis
tributed through merchants among the
farmers of the state.
Most of the commission men of the
state now buy eggs on the Gloss OFF, ba-
sis; that is, they pay for good eggs only.
A few however, still pay for the eggs as
they come, rots and all. 1t is the latter
class of buyers that the food and drug
department is trying to discourage, as
methods encourage careless handling OF
eggs by the country merchants, who, in
turn, are not as strict as they should be
with the farmers who furnish the eggs.
