zen. The people of the towns,
where published should feel proud
of them and give them the honest
support due a newspaper, which does
so much to boost it's community.
Stroller, in the Tribune-Repub-
lican, of Scranton, says: 81 see that
r. M. Stocker of Honesdale, has an
earnest plea for the farm in a recent
letter to the Philadelphia Record.
In speaking of the farm lands of
beautiful Wayne county, Mr.. Stock
er says in part: These lands are
better than those that reared Abra-
ham Lincoln, and just as good as
those farmed by Washington at Mt
Vernon or jefferson at Monticello.
The bankers say that of the $4,000
600 in deposits in Wayne county the
farmers hold the largest share.
These farmers manage to maintain
1000 miles of public road, besides
sustaining schools and churches; but
many of our boys and girls have left
the lure of the city and have gone to
Scranton and other cities, and there
are good farms tenantless in this
county-farms that can be purchas-
ed for less than the labor cost on
them; farms which under good till
age will yield a good return; farms
where people can live in a healthful,
sanitary manner; farms where fam
lilies can be reared in righteousness,
with sons and daughters fitted for
usefulness, much better than in the
city. Come, all you land-hungry;
there is land enough at fair prices
IL you really want it,.

Minnesota Readers,
THREE WORKMEN DROWNED
Start From WintOn on Fishing Trip
on Fall Lake, but Fail to
Return Home.

Fall lake, situated near Winton,
was the scene of triple drowning
when G. P. Tianey, A. Puranen and
Victor Purlite, all employees of Winton
sawmills, were thrown into the lake
from a canoe.
None of the bodies have been re
covered, but their overturned boat
ard failure to return home leaves no
doubt of their fate in the minds of

advanced is that the men left the
launch for a canoe in order to reach
the fishing grounds and were cap

In root growth alfalfa resembles red
clover, but sends down stronger tap
root. When properly handled it pro-
duces three or four cuttings each
year and remains productive for many
years. Land which is adapted to red
clover usually grows alfalfa when
any lack of incubation and of lime is
supplied.
