cultural world these last ten years
is that progress is not an individual
matter but d community matter.
The eternal truths Of Holy Writ that
that no man liyeth to himself"
and that the surest way to help your
selfis to help your neighbor-these
truths hayt begun to get the atten-
ton and the practical application
they should have had from the
beginning. Cooperation Is the
watchword Of the hour. You can't
succeed in anything working by
yourself as you can if your neigh
bors arestriving with you along the
same line. No race horse ever made
a worlds record trotting by him
self, but only when keyed up to his
utmost by rivalry with another
horse.
It is true in farm work, and it is
true in everything else, that you do
your est only if your neighbors are
working with and racing with you.
You may start with the seed you
plant and 60 on thru until the fin
ished crop is ready to market, and
in everything you can succeed bet
ter if your neighbors are reading
men, intelligent, alert, wide-awake,
eager for progress in every line as
you are.
Take the matter Of seed, as we
said, and is it not true that if you
wish to buy improved seed cheapest
you should live in neighborhood
where the farmers have been walked
up to the importance Of good seed
and therefore have various kinds to
offer? Or if you have an improved
variety yourself, is it not important
to live in a community where the
farmers are progressive enough to
appreciate good seed and to be will
/
ing to buy them from you?
Then when you go to plant the
seed, the same principle holds good.
You wish the mostimproyed nipple.
ments for breaking the land and for
planting the seed, but unless you
live in progressive neighborhood
you cannot get the experience OF
other neighbors as to what makes
suit your work best; on account OF
the small demand, your neighbor-
ing merchants viii necessarily have
only a poor stock for you to select
from; and in case any parts should
break, you would find difficulty in
borrowing from a neighbor.
Then take fertilizers. If your
neighbors are progressive and wide
awake, you can get up combina-
ton order for just the fertilizers or
fertllizing ingredients you need;
whereas the expense Of placing a
special order for yourself alone may
be prohibitive.
Cnltivation-time and harvest-time
come on in season, and there may
be improved cultivators and reapers
and binders and shredders and
threshers you would like to buy in
combination with your neighbors,
but if they are ignorant and un-
progressive, there is no hope Of your
doing SO. Or you may wish to mar
ket your goods on the cooperative
plan and plan and save middlemen's
charges, but your ability to do this
will depend upon progressiyeness
of your neighbors. -ProgressiveFar-

TIME one subject on which a
girl and her parents will never
agree is, when is the love time
of life? In the girls opinion. the
psychological moment arrives
whenever some good looking youth,
with winning way with him, puts
in an appearance on the scene.
On the other hand, the parents
contend that a maiden should not
think of love and marriage until
she has prepared herself for the
responsibilities they entail, and
that there is no hurry about get
ting married, anyway, because
when you are married you are gen
orally married a very long time

She Runs a Great Risk.
A father who is arguing with his
daughter this eternal problem that
comes up between every girl and
her parents asks this question:
Don't you think that the aver
age girl of 10 or 20 is very apt to
mistake infatuation for love, and
that to become engaged at that
age would be cheating herself out
Of the happiest years Of her life?
Do you not think that her judg-
ment in choosing a husband would
be much less apt to be wrong if
she would wait until she was "a or
% years old?"
am no believer in early mar
riages. | think that if no woman
married before she was 25 and no
man before he was 80 it would ma
teriany reduce the amount of do
mestic misery in the world.
There are enough risks in matri-
mony, anyway, without taking any
chances on what you are going to
be yourself, and the kind Of a wife
or a husband you are going to want
when you come to maturity. And
that's what people do who marry

EQUAL FRANCHISE NOTES

The Eureka branch of the Nevada
Equal Franchise Society met Satur-
day evening, August 8, at the home
of Mrs. Rudolph Zadow. The house
was called to order by County Press
Chairman Mrs. G. M. Roberts. After
the routine of business, a literary
and musical programme was rem
dered which proved to be interesting
and instructive. We intend to make
our annual dance, Labor Day even
ing, "The Banner One," and will in
sure all who attend a good time.
With the introduction of the petit
tons asking for favorable action on
the National Suffrage amendment in
the upper branch of Congress last
week, Senator after Senator rose to
speak for the women of his State.
Senator Pittman of Nevada said in
part, 1--WE realize that the purifica-
ton of the administration of our
Government is the most important
question before the people to-day.
We believe that the absolute and
unrestrictive enfranchisement of
women will do more to purify our
Government than all of the corrupt
practice bills that can be enacted
into law.
Senator Sherman of Illinois said:
The bravest of battles that ever was
fought,
Shall l tell You Where or When?
On the maps of the world you will iud
il not;
1t was fought by the Mothers Of Men.
No marshaling troop. no bivouac song.
No banners that CLEAN and wave;
But oh, its struggles, they last so long,
From babvhood down TO the grave.
Our next meeting will be held at
the home of Mrs. T. A. Burdick,
Saturday evening, August %. The
meetings are always open to those
who are interested in the cause OF
Equal Suffrage. PRESS CHAIRMAN.

Favorably Impressed With Willow Creek

Dan Johns returned here Thurs
day from his trip of inspection to
the new Willow Creek mining dis
trict in southern Nye County. He
is very favorably impressed with
the showing already made in a num-
Der of the claims on which active
development work is being prose-
cuted, and says the district gives
every promise of permanency. he
left his son, William. there, and
they have decided to locate perma-
nently in the new camp. He came
to Eureka for some additional sup
niles and to attend to some business
matters and will return to Willow
Creek in a few days.
