"A Little Bird Told Me So."

The popular expression, "A little
bird told me So" used to convey the
idea that by telling you would betray
your informant, but is probably adapt
ed from the twentieth verse OF the
tenth chapter Of Ecclesiastes: Curse
not the king, no not in thy thought;
and curse not the rich in thy bed
chamber; for bird of the air shall
carry thy voice, and that which hath
wings shall tell the matter"

Why They Leave The Farm

Many are asking and attempting to
answer the question: Why do the
young people leave the farm? And
it is these attempts more than any
thing else that cause the young peo-
pie to leave. In such articles it is
common to picture the farmers as
having to get up at four o'clock in
the morning and work until after
dark at night, having nothing but
drudgery through his entire life.
Now, the fact, is that there is no
need for the farmer to arise any
earlier in the morning than the city
man-in fact it is probably true that
in many instances the city man needs
to be the earlier riser. ..t
The articles referred to are writ
ten as if there had been no progress
in the farmers equipments since the
times when the heavy work of the
farm was done by hand. The fact is
that moderns machinery makes the
farmer as near an aristocrat as it is
easy to conceive of a man becoming.
In Wisconsin these writer's point
to milking as the climax of the
drudgery of the farm, but there is no
good reason why the farmer should
not be equipped with milking ma
chimes that make light chore of
% no ~ Of Tho JUprlx
Again, we are told that the farmer
is without the modern things that
characterize the city home, but here
too, the writer's fail to recognize that
modern invention has come to the
rescue of the farmer and made it
easier for him than for the city
dweller to have modern equipment
in the home.
The fact is that, month after
month, there is less drldgery- on the
farm than in the life of the average
city man. And when this fact is
kept before the public as it should
be, we will have a reverse of con-
ception that will return the trend Of
movement to the farm. -

GOOD BOUT ASSURED

When the gong sounds, to call Me
Pike and Kowitz to the center of
the ring in their scheduled 1O-round
exhibition. on May IS. at Worden;s
opera house, the fans" are going
to get their moneys. worth
Both men are in perfect physical
condition, both confident and we'll
matched
McPike is perhaps the more
scienced and with his superior gen
eralship and greater experience in
fistic affairs will probably put up
the best showing While Tony, be
ing heavier by ten or fifteen pounds,
and much more rugged of build, will
probably be on the receiving end
most of the time - :.
Now this Kowitz person, a product
of Bruce, seems to be 20. k His
frequent visits to Chicago. where he
attends the different gymnasiums,
have taught him lot about the
game and We have, it is thought at
last found some man from this vicin-
ity to give McPike a tussle. Tony,
whose whole name is KoslOkoWitz,
is Polish and he is being heavily
boosted by all spOrt-loving Poles in
Ladysmith and vicinity. A large dele
cation of Poles are expected from
Bruce.
Arrangements have been made for
flash-light view to be taken of the
ring, showing the two principals
shaking hands.
The Ladysmith band will be on the
job to furnish music. A short con-
cert will be given in front of the
opera house until the curtain raiser
is announced The boys will then
play during intermissions.
The two preliminary bouts and
semi-final bout will be good. The
curtain raiser, a 6-round exhibition
will be announced promptly at $3.50.
Perry Magee and Willie Jones, both
of ;Ladysmith will mix in this bout

WOULD TEACH MOD -,
ERN FARM METHODS

That modern farming methods may
be taught by actual demonstration
is the plan set forth in a bill intro
duced by Assemblyman Potts Of
Waupaca county. His bill provides
that counties that do not maintain
county agricultural schools may en-
ploy a county agricultural representa-
tive to cooperate with rural schoo s
and instruct farmers generally in all
matters pertaining to farming and
farm life.
The proposition of employing a
county agricultural representative is
along the line of the Lever bill that
recently passed congress. The Lever
bill provided that farm demOnstra-
tor be placed in every county to go
about and instruct the farmers in
planting and caring for crops. The
measure was given the hearty sup
port of the National Soil Fertility
League and it's passage was urged
by all leading agricultural instructors
1t is claimed that the farm demons
