FlOtsam and Jetsam

Last Monday evening some of
the flotsam and jetsam of society
made considerable of q stir. A
deaf mute, a woman, negro and
some bad whisky all mixed up
together made the trouble, and
when the officers attempted to
straighten out things there was
considerable clawing and biting
on the part of the dummy and
the woman. The darky was
lucky enough to get away in the
early stages of the game, but the
dummy and the "female of the
species" spent the early part of
the night in the lookup. There's
a lot of driftwood floating around
these summer days.

To Change Methods

The failure Of the wheat crop in
some parts of the state has again
brought to the front the question of
changing methods Of farming and
getting away from sole reliance up
on the wheat crop as source of
revenue. On this subject the Aber-
deem News says:
IAN average of ten bushels per acre
is the most that we'll applied industry
will bring, and it is often below that
figure 1t is a crop that is at its most
sensitive period OF growth every year
at a time when it has to encounter the
hazards of heat and dry weather. A
few critical days Of absence of mois-
ture deprives the plant of vitality,
and when that happens there is no
yield, or an insufficient Yield
On this subject II. F.. Patterson,
superintendent of the S. D. Better
Farming Association, makes the fol-
lowing sensible comments:
1.-TWO men were in the office the
otner DAY Ono was complaining.
that his crop of wheat had entirely
burned up. The other remarked that
he should not grow wheat but should
go into corn and livestock. This is
very good advice but it is not
practicable in every case. We
should get away from exclusive
wheat farming it is trne, but it is al
most impossible for a farmer to
change from one system of farming to
another in few days. He must oe-
gi n lowl and make b $
living as he goes along. The best
way to do is to start with small field
of corn, some pasture and field OF
alfalfa. Then get small amount OF
livestock and as conditions warrant,
increase this number. Within few
years the system of farming will have
been changed and more profitable
business established.

Bob Burdette to His Son.

Bob Burdette many times gives
good advice. He addresses his son in
the following manner:
'sGet away from the crowd for
awhile and think. Stand on one side
and let the world run by while you get
acquainted with yourself and see
what kind of fellow you really are.
Learn all you can about yourself.
ascertain from original sources it
you are really the manner Of man you
say you are; and if you always tell
the square, perfect truth in business
details, ii your life is as good at
eleven 0 clock at night as it is at noon;
if you are as good temperance man on
a fishing excursion as you are at a
Sunday school picnic: if you are as
good when you go to the city as you
are at home-if, in short, you are
really the sort of man your father
hopes you are and your sweetheart
believes you TO be. Get on frank
terms with yourself, my boy and
believe me every time you come out OF
one of these private interviews you
will be better. stronger, purer man.
Don't forget this, and it will do
you good.'

At the business meeting of the
Big Stone Chautauqua associa-
ton the new board of directors
and officers for the coming year
were elected as follows: G.. E.

}. A. Gold, of Big Stone secre-

The retiring president. G.. A.
Wood, now living at Saratoga,
Cal, leaves the chautauqua in
good condition financially and
otherwise, but owing to his resi-
dence in a;distant state is unable
to give the enterprise the per-
sonal attention that is necessary
for growing institution, and the
selection of Mr.. Chrisman as
president is considered an ad-
mirable one, and an earnest of
great program and a successful
chautauqua gathering next year.

Runaw Boys

Word was telegraphed from
Groton last Friday that two
young boys one Of them a son OF
Samuel Bishop of that place,
were, were running away from
home and were likely on the
night local train. At Ortonville
John Hausaurer, the railway
policeman rounded them up, and
held them there for return to
Groton. The boys were 10 and II
years of age respectively and
claimed that they were on their
way to some point in Iowa to
visit an uncle, but from the
language they used and the man
ner in which they conducted
themselves it was easily to be
seen that they were headed for
some of the state penitentiaries
and are pretty likely to reach
their destination early in life un-
less some radical transformation
is made in their lives.

L. L. Conright, one of the old
soldiers who took part in the bat
tie of Gettysburg. as member
Of Company B 147th New York
infantry, returned home on the
Wednesday morning train. Mr..
Conright reports that he
had a very enjoyable trip, keep
ing in pretty good health all the

Quite a number of the old COM

After the reunion at Gettysburg
Mr.. Conright looked up several
nephews at Troy and Corning,
Pa and Elmira, N. Y, and had
the pleasure of meeting a num-
Der Of friends and acquaintances
whom he knew in his younger
days. He says the experience
was well worth the journey, and
the trip has given him many
pleasant memories. While in
the Gettysburg camp he had the
pleasure of shaking hands with
Gen. Sickles, the last Of the great
commanders, and who is now

Prices This Fall

It is hard to say now how
much we can expect for small
grain this fall. Perhaps the
wheat will average between 75c
and $1.OO. How much is this
going to give the farmer for
every acre of land that he has
seeded to wheat? Is it a profit
able investment? It is a good
plan to stop and look around,
and see how much money we are
going to make. Is there any
other method of farming that
will give US larger returns?

An Old Timer
Big Stone Headlight:

Thirteen years ago. when the
Headlight was over the hardware
store, along toward noon one day
we heard a racket out in the
street that led us to suppose that
some farmer had bought a new
binder and in taking it out had
put it in gear just to loosen up
the bearings little. We step
ped to the window to pick up the
man 5 name, for that was day
when a man who bought a binder
in Big Stone got his name in the
paper, but saw nothing but a
cloud of dust disappearing
around the corner. We we're
informed it was ''horseless
carriage" (" Later we had a
chance to look the critter over.
Itwas a Winton, and what is
now called a runabout and be-
longed to Frank Brown of Aber-
deem, who then owned a cottage
at Big Stone, the "Mystic
Shrine" !" This was the first
automobile ever owned in the
state. Thirteen years has seen
some progress in this direction.
What reminded the Headlight
of the occurrence was seeing f "A.
Brown at the park Saturday.
It was his first visit to Big
Stone in eight years and he was
on his way by auto to Dead Lake
in Ottertail County, with a party
of relatives and friends.

Wheat After Corn

Now is a good time to see the
value of good farming. If one
would go into the burned out
wheat sections, he will find that
a fairly good crop of wheat will
be received upon land that last
year produced corn. This is
worth thinking about. If we
can get good crop of wheat by
sowing it upon corn land, even if
the weather is dry, it is some
thing that should be done.
Then when we realize that
corn gives a profitable crop. we
can readily see that this kind OF
farming will succeed.

Woodmen are Not Satisfied with
Referendum Vote

The insurgent Woodmen Fed
GRAFTON is issuing pamphlet
authorized by a convention of
Woodmen held at Springfield,
ILL.,, on May Is and Is, and adyls-
ing against taking part in the
referendum vote as set forth in
the July number of the Modern
Woodman, and gives the follow
ing reasons:
FIRsT-We do not believe the vote
is being taken with sincere intentions
or in good faith, but with the hope
that those who oppose them in the
course they have taken will scatter
their votes in maze of conflicting
propositions while they by reason of
their oiled machinery can concentrate
their vote in support of their previous
contention.
SEcoND-They refused to submit to
the membership a legal referendum
vote under the Donahue bill and
sought to escape it under an auto
injunction, knowing we'll what the re-
suit of the vote would be.
THIRD-The Head Consul year
ago emphatically stated to the Presi-
dent Of this assocition that it was i'm
possible for the Head Officers to sub
nit referendum vote under the laws
OF our order. If that was true then,
it is true now.
FoURTH-This vote is purposely be.
ing held early, after the Springfield
convention before the action Of that
convention and our literature has had
time to be published and distributed
to the members of the Order.
FIFTH-Any voting proposition to
be accepta able to majority Of Wood
men at this time should give an op.
portunity to vote for or against the
principles and platform adopted q,
the Springfield convention.
