There is little encouragement for
any one to raise choice flowers If they
are picked, pulled up and destroyed
by children who have never been
taught that all flowers are not dandi-

Monday had been caught that lad
would at least have had a spanking.
We notice among the Forty Years
Ago items published In the Sioux
City Journal the following:
April 81, 1873. Thomas Thorson,
recorder for Lyon county and a jolly

trust as he is today.
