IOWA MAP CHANGING.

The whole map Of this part Of Cal
houn comfy Will be entirely changed
with new buildings by the time SNOW
begins to fail. On nearly every section
Of land in this part OF the country nav
Improvements are being made, rev
sets OF farm buildings are going up
and new farms and homes are being
created. Il is a wonderful change. bu.
one that enhances the value OF every
acre OF land and brings greater pros
perity 10 every land owne--Mason
Democrat.
L is a general change in Iowa Per
haps il IS more marked IN Calhoun
than here in the central and earlier
settled parts OF the state, but the
change is general one all over Iowa
The map is changing. The past twelve
years has created new Iowa. Farm
residences OF the best modern con-
struction have replaced the earlier
houses and barns ard silos spring up
over night like the biblical gou-d 10
shelter finer cattle and horses and that
the most De made Of The products OF
the fields 1t is new Iowa within a
decade.
It IS a fortunate Iowa also. How
fortunate is best shown by COMPARISON.
Illinois in the same latitude as central
and northern Iowa, was settled gen
was the richest of soil. corn land of
the finest. TIE early farm owners
crowded it with corn one year after
another They had not learned the
vicious result Of soil robbing. And to-
DAY the farms of the finest part Of
northern Illinois compare most IN
tavorably with those of Iowa. We
learned late but not as late as they.
We are doing more 20 care for soil fer
,il!ty than the past generation. And
We are just one generation ahead Of
the Illinois farmer becase we are one
generation nearer 10 the virgin prairie.
Those Illinoisans had their era Of re-
building. They built new houses and
new barns But they built them a

pared Iowa has the advantage again
! Of generation OF progress. Here the
most modern con.eniences are none
too good for the best farm houses.
There they added new conveniencas to
/ old houses which is another way Of
putting rev wine in old bottles. And
| SO Iowa has advantage
! The most important lesson TO be had
/ from the comparison is in soil conssr-
vation. Those OLD time farmers were
entirely convinced that their soil could
never wear OFT and Used l. under that
false conviction. We know better IN
/ Iowa and should act on the knowledge.
/ Soil does wear out. And nothing wears
it out and detracts more rapidly FROM
its value and fertility than the snort
term lease and the renter forced 10
/ skin the land for its hide and tallow.
! While We are changing the map Of
Iowa farmhouses and farm buildings
I let US not make the serious mistake OF
neglec,ing the soil. For the soil is all
there is 10 Iowa.

1HE DIRTY LINEN.

a southwestern Iowa newspaper, the
Shenandoah World. offers some excel
lent advice 10 husbands and wives who
ind it impossible to live together when
It refers 70 charges OF grave miscon-
duct made in a divorce petition and il
counter charges brought in defence.
The World finds il hard 10 understand
why the mother OF a child can make
fagran- charges against is father and
how the father can reply with al,ega-
tions Of similar nature against the
mother OF his children. says the
World:
'If you cant live together. agree 20
separate, but for the sake Of that little
girl. dear 70 both o. you. for lie sai.e
of this community. and for the sake OF
what's left Of your own good names,
get together on some basis, on any
basis Of separation, but withdraw these
terrible charges against each other.
You owe II 10 that little girl, you owe
It to the community, you owe II TO your
friends, and you owe il to yourselves"
The World has it right. It's advice
Is good. Perhaps it IS neither desired
or available in the case 20 which 1t re-
fers but it's good advice and plain
common sense as regards the pr.n-
cipals, the children and the commun-
ity. There isn't much to De had by the
public washing Of dirty linen. The
friends OF the parties find themselves
in the midst of the laundry work there
is stopping and slashing Of suds and
dirty water and in the END there Is little
hanging on the line of which to De

The World is sage adviser. The

The saddest feature IN the Sulze'
case as the curtain goes down is the
defiant and unblushing countenance OF
the convicted public official. His tota!
lack OF moral sensibility. his failure to
perceive or to admit that he has done
anything wrong, constitute more
deadly indictment against him than
even the charges On which the court
OF impeachment deprived him of the
guberna,orial office. He fails to rec
ogaize that his punishment is just and
that the fact that his exposure was due

his own personal and official sins. Ii

themselves as anxious TO take advan-

Now that is about what the Rome

a place to teach dairying and paying
"a comparatively small sum for the

gests: During the winter months when
time is available why wouldn't it pay
some good rural school district to do
about what Rome is doing, hire an ex-
pert. send a few COWS down to a barn
close by the school house and make the
farmers and farmers wives and sons

great deal Ii would without any
doubt render back its cost multiplied

would be worth mere than il cost in
its general effect? Why wouldn't 1t
pay"
Da:rying has not as yet come 70 it's

understand 1t and its value. We still
have that OLD fashioned farm hand
notion that the proper business Of a
man is plowing and husking corn. no,
milking cows. But dairying is the most
profitable use Of farm and TWO

there is profit in dairy.ng ard there
would be profit in a dairy school out
