Country Life in Minnesota

One country township in Southern Minnesota has
had its taken in way. Somebody has taken
the trouble to find all the facts about the different
families living in this township. Here of the
things that we're found out.
Twenty-three farmers out OF hundred say their big
gest problem is to get satisfactory help.
Twenty-Five women out OF 100 push their lawn
mowers to keep their front yards neat and trim.
Thirty-two women out of 100 help with the barnyard
chores
Sixteen women out Of help in field work at
harvest time
This outdoor work of the is promoting health
and family Affection but we hope the men help much in
indoor work.
Cooperative Creameries and stores successful,
but good many farmers do not believe in them yet
The Rural Free Delivery has put the country stores
out of business. People go to town to trade.
Eighty -four farmers out of 100 take some newspaper
but only forty seven out of 100 read them
Only fourteen farmers out OF 100 attend a
Farmers Institute.
Church attendance is rather less than it used to be.
The distinction between wellto do farmers and those
less well-to-do is increasing.
The young people lack proper and sufficient amuse-
ments
So it appears that rural life in Minnesota can be
much improved.
How about Kentucky!

Ulster Crisis Arouses England

Intense excitement prevails in
England over the situation brought
about through the action Of the
ministry in connection with the
Home Rule Bill. Following the dec
laration Of the Ulster men that the
proposition for six years exclusion
Of Ulster from the provisions Of the
Home Rule Act, would not be ac-
cepted, the authorities began shift
ing Of troops in Ireland with the in
tention Of replacing the troops in
Ulster with those stationed in other
military centers. When orders were
given for the regiment nj Curragh
10 move into Ulster, seventy out OF
seyenty-six officers offered their
designations, stating that they were
not prepared tn engage in civil war
and did not enlist for that purpose.
This action revealed a condition in
the army that was suspected and
the limits Of which no one knew or
could predict. Lord Beresford said
that many naval officers Of high
rank are prepared Ia resign if an at
tempt is made Ia force Ulster into
compliance by the use Of the mill
tary.
The military situation Immediate
~ revealed a most grave condition
of affairs. The government through
Premier Asquiih explained that
mistake had been made in interpret
ing the order.
There Is now talk of a possible
adjournment Of Parliament for a
general consideration Of affairs. II
was learned that "A general of high
standing IN the regular army re-
fused thcpost ofcommander-in

ton awakcns the widest interest.

not yet prepared To adopt civil war

Marjorie, clinging to his arm, was
