DENIsoN SHORT COURSE

There will be things of interest for
the entire family at the short course
to be held at Denison Feb. to IA
1913. Glasses in the study of grain
and stock will be conducted each day
from nine until four o'clock. Special
lectures on feeding, pastures, soils,
ETC., will be given each afternoon from
four to five o'clock. At eight o'clock
each morning there will be class in
rope tying, including the making OF
knots, bitches and spices. One tick
ct admits the holder to any part or
all of the weeks work. The rope
work is one feature worth the price
of a ticket.
The short course is really the Agri-
cultural college brought to Crawford
county for the week. A car load of
college stock will be used in the lee
lures and demonstrations. The results
of the experiments carried on at Ames
for years, will be outlined in the diff
ferent classes. Mr.. w. G. Rollins is
secretary of the course and will be
wishing information concerning the
work.

|otice. The Cummins amendment

notice. The Cummins amendment
sought to increase the rate of duty on
aluminium and it's products over the
rate as fixed by the democrats bill
by practically 300 per cent That al
uminum amendment of senator Ken
yon led to disclosures as to senator
Cummins having acted as an attorney
for senator oliver and his associates,
which, of course, were embarrassing
to senator Cummins and his friends.
Not very considerate, do you think?
well, now, something else has hap
pened to offend Senator Cummins.
and this is rich, for be it known that
the republican presidential nominal
ton in 1916is tender spot in these
days with the senior senator from from
Iowa.
ut seems Senator Kenyon has been
out to Minneapolis and that while he
was in that city he talked with news
paper reporters, telling them that in
his opinion Senator La Toilette was
the hope of the republican party in
1916"
That interview, it seems, from what
the western statesman said, simply
got the whole goat of Senator Cum
Minis. 1t thoroughly disguised him.
Chatter! The talk of La Toilette was
as foolish as the talk of Hughes!

SOMEWHAT INCoNsIDERATE

Washington, D. c., Nov. 26-Spe-

to be somewhat inconsiderate of the
feelings of the distinguished and am

'Whadda you mean, inconsiderate? ?"
was asked.
"Well, little while ago, when the
metal schadule of the tariff bill was
under discussion in the senate" began
the western statesman in reply, the
junior senator from Iowa took GER
tain position with regard to the tariff
on aluminium and it's products. AS
trust buster. in chief for the depart
ment of justice during a part of the
Taft administration Mr.. Kenyon had
prosecuted the aluminium trust, had
secured a conviction and the trust had
been declared monopoly in restraint
of trade. Senator Kenyon, being fam
iliar with all the facts of the case,
plainly showed to senators in his
speech before them, as he had in his
argument before the United States
court, that the aluminium monopoly,
having it's headquarters in Pittsburg,
controls the aluminium business of the
United States and Canada. Senator
Kenyon was unable to see how this
dividend of $3O,OOO,OO0 needed any
protective duty, so he introduced a
bill, in the form of an amendment. to
strike out the duty fixed by the dem
ocratic bill, and, instead, place alum
mum and all its products on the free
list.

aluminium amendment forced into the

Pennsylvania farmer has the past
season used one with gratifying sue

the state corn and small grain show
that is to be held at the Agricultural

better this year than ever before, des-
pite the unfavorable season in some
sections of the state Premiums rang
ing from seed corn stringers to silos
have been provided for the winners.
One thousand dollars has been placed
on the ten ear class alone.
Bankers know the value of the bus

and show their appreciation in various
ways. The following bank has shown
by donating ten dollars for corn grown
in Crawford county.
Crawford County State Bank, Den

This money is to be competed for
only by farmers in Crawford county,
and should encourage those who have
had little experience in showing to
get into the competition. Farmers

ey with the expectation that it will
promote friendly competition between
you, and it expects the winner to earn
it. If you have not already chosen
the sample, begin now to make the
selection that will make every other
exhibitor in this county hustle to bet

Double Barreled Escape.

MINERS are among the most heroic
4N1 people in the world. Danger is
always beside them, and they are
schooled to believe that at any time
they will come face to face with
death. The result of this is that they
are humorous in their holiness.
In one of the mines in the North Of
England there was a cave-in which
imprisoned a miner. The accident
happened on Friday afternoon, and
the fellow laborers of the entombed
man set to work to dig him out. 1t
was not until Sunday morning, how
ever, that they reached his prison
chamber, and by this time they were
wondering whether he had been suffo-
Gated or starved to death. One Of
them stuck his head through the
aperture made by the picks of the
rescuers and called out:
Jack, are you all right?"
"All right" came the reply, and
then, after a pause: What day is
this?"
Sunday" answered the friend.

.E6THOPE I am not a prude," said a
Southern matron, but find my
self shocked beyond expression by
the things that men and women talk
about. Only yesterday, a young man,
whose mother was a friend of my girl
hood days, remarked to me that his wife
could not come to see me just now, as
she is not going out this spring. Then
he added with a pleasant smile, we are
expecting a visit from the stork in a
few weeks. OF course, we are very hap
py at the prospect
Il felt myself blush as a silly girl
might. In my youth, young people did
not speak of such things. When my first
child was coming, even my brothers
were told nothing about it. One of them
asked my mother if had any prospects,
and she snubbed the 14-year- old boy
promptly, forbidding him TO talk of such
things. But we have changed all that
kind of feeling nowadays. I confess
cannot become accustomed to such free
speech as is now the fashion. There is
nothing at present that may not be dis
cussed."

to the commonsense thinker, there is
much to be said in praise of the change
viewed from some aspects. OF course,
there is no revolution or reformation
without a tendency on the part of some
extremists to overdo matters. So in this
day of frank speech there are occasions
when we think II would be in better
taste for young people to omit the dis
cussion of the social evil and the white
slave traffic in mixed company.
Danger in Half knowledge.
That such discussion does take place
is only an evidence that when a pendu-
lum has swung too far in one direction
it is bound to swing almost as far in
the other. Much as some persons de-
