HAWI<EYE FAR MERSCLUB
First Meeting Of the Year Of
the Hawkeye Farmers Club
The first meeting of the year
Of the Hawkeye Farmers Club
was held at the beautiful coun-
try home "The Mulberry Stock
Farm" of Mr.. and Mrs. w. j.
House.
The club is composed of
twelve farmers and their wives
and the object of their meeting
is to discuss points of interest to
farmers. The club members
and invited friends began to
gather about ten o'clock and by
noon the house was packed. At
twelve O'Clock the dining room
door was thrown open where
the tables were covered with
everything good to eat. Mrs.
w. G. Couithard played a march
to which all marched to the
dining room and were seated.
Blessing was then offered
by the Victroia.
Plates were set for sixty-five
guests, and a four course din
ner was served. After dinner
the meeting was opened with
Pres. Mr.. E. w. Scebold in the
chair. A musical and literary
program was rendered which
was composed of:
Song, Work for the night is
coming, by club.
Music, by Gerald Render.
Recitation, by Eunice Uehling.
Reading, Mrs. G N. Mcintosh.
Victrola, ct takes the Irish to
beat the Dutch by Mr.. Geo.
House.
Piano Solo, Little Boy Blue, by
Miss Ethel House.
Recitation, by Willie Beebee.
Reading, Miss Grace Quist.
It was impossible to render
the full program as officers for
the ensuing year had to be
elected. The business meeting
was opened by reading minutes
previous meeting, next a dis
cussion as to which was the
most profitable, horse or mule
raising. The question was not
decided at this time. Ask Sec.

Easy to Locate the Poles.

Suppose a person who was igno-
rant of astronomy and the method
of taking observations should set
out to find the north pole. How
would he know when he reached it?
BY setting up a vertical rod and
measuring its shadows at frequent
intervals as the sun passed around
the sky. If these shadows all re-
NAMED Of the same length during
the suns course through the heav-
ems, the Ignorant" explorer would
then know he was at the pole. If
the lengths of the rods shadows va
ried during the twenty-four hours
he could not be at the pole, and the
direction in which the shadows fell
shortest would indicate the way in
which the boreal point lay. OF
course such observations could only
be made during the %"arctic day"
that is. when the SUI is above the
horizon in the northern ATTITUDES.

Oysters Killed by SeaMeed.

Extensive ravages are often COM
mhted by seaweed spores in oyster
beds in a very curious fashion. The
weed grows on the shell of the oys-
ter and is of an oval shape, solid at
first and afterward filed with wa
Ter. 1t often attains the size of a
hens egg or even Of a mans fist.
Left uncovered by the tide, it splits
and loses its water. This is replaced
by air, which is imprisoned by the
next rise Of the tide. The seaweed
now acts as a balloon, raises the oys-
Yer from the bottom and floats with
il out to sea. Hundreds of thou
sands Of oysters are thus lost.

Elephant Police.

The sight of six pairs of ele-
plants simultaneously at work cap
turing a half dozen struggling,
trumpeting males is an imposing
one. Like a pair of animal police
men ~arresting a prisoner, the great
beasts sidle alongside a victim, take
him between them and jostle and
squeeze and worry him, tail first, to-
ward a tree. Every inch is contested
BY the herculean fighters until "a
ing a stout tree or stump the little
brown elephant catchers slide from
