Abundant Fruit Year Promised
Following several days spent in close
inspection OF the fruit trees of Scott
county, G. X. Bliss believes that 1913
will be al excellent fruit year, one Of
the best in recent seasons, and that
apple, peach, pear cherry and plum
trees, as well as strawberries and 9TH
or small fruit. will bear heavily. The
fruit has blossomSd well. The county
agriculturalist believes that with
warmer weather coming there is little
chance from now on of frost damage
and that with sufficient spraying there
will not be enough damage from insect
pests 10 spoil the yield. Many of the
fruit growers are making preparations
now to spray their orchards. The
trees are not quite ready for this treat
ment. as the buds have not opened TO
a sufficient extent. Within a week the
, orchards throughout the county are
expected to be in shape for spraying.

SAFEGUARDING
LITTLE ONES.

The late Or. Livingstone when'
asked concerning danger from lions
in Africa and there was more
likelihood of being killed by vehicles
in London than by lions the dark
continent We're the doctor living
in the days of automobiles, motor
cycles, etc, he would realize that the
danger from vehicles in cities has in
creased enormously.
The National Highways Protective
Society in New York has placed its
ban on roller skating, cone old cat"
pushmobiles, and other juvenile street
amusements. The society's Septem-
Der report shows an unusually large
number of children killed or injured
in street accidents.
Edward S. Cornell, secretary of
the organization, said that school
teachers shouE5 warn their pupils of
the ever increasing danger of playing
on the streets and highways and
that clcrgylnen should urge parents
to forbid their children to use the
streets for Fairgrounds. Since the
first of the year 1913 children have
been killed on the streets of New
York by wheel traffic.

CONDITIONS WILL
REMAIN UNCHANGED.

For reasons best known TO them
selves, Il majority Of the members
of the City School Board who were
present at the meeting last night de-
c,incd to interfere with the present
order Of things regarding the pro-
csdures Of certain non-resldents IN
order to obtain admission for their
children in the public schools OF
Alexandria. A resolution which
practically excluded children Of non
residents except where the tuition
fee prescribed by the board shall
have been paid was rejected and a
substitute allowing the children OF
patents or guardians who own prop
erty in Alexandria and who are en-
gagged in any licensed business in chs
city to send their children to our
schools.
The members OF the School Board
are elected by the City Council TO
manage the public schools, and as
they last night merely acted within
their privileges as trustees, no crit
icism is made nor is there any IN
tention TO interfere with them.
1t was shown that one hundred and
nineteen pupils above the number Of
last year are now in our schools and
that in some grades there is conges-
ton. An additional teacher has been
elected and the board is doubtless do
ing all possible to meet the demands
upon the system.

The celebration of the twenty-tifth
anniversary Of the Young Mems So
dality Lyccum at their hall last night
is generally admitted to have formed
one of the most interesting chapters
in the history of that organization.
The program had been arranged by
the committee in the most appropr'a-
ate manner and its features were car
ricG out satisfactorily.
The speeches were animated and
enjoyable, and all who attended left
for their homes with the happy reall-
cation that it was we'll for them TO
have BEEN there, sl#.;
Tic Young Mems Sodality Lyceum
has been a vigorous and popular or

much of its time and labor to its
advancement.

Chicago, Ill.,, Oct. 3-September,
which has been marked by unusual
fcklencss, and ran the entire ganut
from prostrating heat to frost, wound
up Sunday with a fog of great
density and a wierd thunderstorm.
The fog made traffic dangerous and
difficult, but was hailed with .elight
by the great criminal element, which
worked overtime robbing pedestrians
and residences.
One of the bizarre features Of the
freakish day was bolt of lightning
which thoroughly SCRAMBLE thirty
dozen eggs when it darted down d
tree and demolished the wagon of an
egg merchant who had taken refuge
there The horse was knockc,: UNI
conscious and the owner tossed sew
cral feet, but escaped serious injury.
More than a hundred school children
we're in the immediate vicirity, but
none of them was seriously hurt.
The black fog, saiG by life savers
to be the worst in their experience,
hung over the city until noon, requir-
ing artificial lights everywhere. Au-
tomobile lights were undistingulsh-
able 90 feet distant and the machines
kept their horns in action constant
ly. Then came furious rain and
dispclled some of the darkness.

George Miller, who broke into the

Live Within Your Means.

The only way to live happily is to
size up ones means and live with
in them. Going in debt for things
that one can do without, trying to
make a $4,000 salary do the work of
$4,000 is what ruins tempers and puts
is what ruins tempers and brings
gray hair about the temples, fills sui
cide's graves and breaks up homes.
The tendency of the times is toward
imitation; happiness lies in the other
direction and the woman of the house
can have a wholesome influence in
the right direction If they but exert
themselves. Many man is started
on the wrong path by the demands OF
selfish and extravagant wife for
more than he can honestly furnish
her in the way of the house and pers-
onal adornments. No man will go
very far wrong whose wife exerts the
right influence over him.

How Money is Made in Iowa.

Mason City, Ia, March 24.-Daniel
Catalan has celebrated his fiftieth
year in Iowa. He came to this state
with assets less than $100. He has
done what thousands of other Iowa
farmers have done-made comfort
able fortunes without much work or
worry, and without any risk. He was
a farmer and he bought one farm in
1891, paying $4,000. Three years Ia
ter he added an eighty acre piece to
this, paying $4,000 for it, Five years
later he took in another 157 acres
and for this he paid $500. All the
time he held this land it was remun-
erative. That made total of $19,-
400 he had invested in real estate
he has simply watched it grow in
value as stockman watches his cat
tie and hogs grow into dollars. He
has just recently unloaded, selling al
very moderate price for $4,000, a
cleanup of $4,000

Indicated Child May Have Been Toss
ed from a Passenger Train.

Ruthven, Iowa, March 24.-The
body of baby boy, hardly more than
day old, was found yesterday on
the Minneapolis & st. Louis right of
way between Ruthven and Ayrshire.
The body was so close to the track
that it might have been thrown out
of the window of a passenger train.
A coroner's jury, impanelled by
Coroner j. l.. Van Gordon of Emmets-
burg, found that the child died from
an indeterminatle cause. The jury
did not know who placed the body
of the child on the tracks" according
to the words of the verdict.
The body was discovered by two
doctors, who drove near it in an au-
tomobile. 1t was naked, except for a
small piece of white cloth tied around
it. There was nothing by which it
might be Unidentified.
