THE USEFUL TRACTOR

dedicated to the Domesticated
Automobile.)
The Tractor on the Farm arose
Before the dawn at four,
1t drove up the cows and washed the
clothes
And finished every chore.
Then forth it went into the field
Just at the break of day,
1t reaped and threshed the golden
yield
And hauled it all away.
1t plowed the field that afternoon,
And when the job was through,
1t hummed pleasant little tune
And churned the butter, too;
And pumped the water for the stock
And ground crib of corn,
And hauled the baby round the block
To still its cries forlorn.
Thus ran the busy hours away
By many labor blest,
And yet when fell the twilight gray,
The Tractor had no rest;
For while the farmer, peaceful eyed,
Read by the tungsten's glow,
The patient Tractor stood outside
And ran the dynamo.

MODENA.

Modena, Utah, Feb. 20, 1914.
One Of the questions in an examin-
alton in language given to the fifth
grade recently was: "Choose some
fruit that you like extra well and de-
scribe it in such way that you will
make others like it." In answer to
the above problem, Luman Rose, age
twelve years, handed in the following
description:
"Well, sir, sure do like pineapple.
1t is, l believe, the best fruit l ever
tasted. 1t is juicy and has such a
pretty color--it is yellowish coldr
1t sure does suit my taste, and am
sure you would just love it if you
should taste it. 1t tastes so good to
me l just cannot describe how it does
taste. But it sure is delicious"

Luther Burbank Seeds.

H. ]. Doolittle, the enterprising
merchant and commission man of
Lund, advises The Record that he has
just closed a contract with the Luther
Burbank company for the exclusive
sale of the Burbank seeds in Iron and
Washington counties.
Luther Burbank is known the world
over as the plant wizard. He it is
who developed the thornless, edible
cactus and great many more rare
and valuable plants. Some of the
early seeds grown by his system Of
propagation are regarded as so prec-
ious that they are deposited in safety
bank vaults to keep and protect
them. The stock, price-lists, ETC., are
expected at Lund shortly. Full par
ticulars may be obtained from Mr.
Doolittle.

MIR. PETERSON VIM
DICATES HIMSELF
Enters Emphatic Denial of SANDER
Gus Rumors Attributed to Him
Concerning the Mofmons.

Springfield, Mo-, Feb. 16, 1914
Mr.. Chas. Wilkinson, Editor Iron
County Record.--In justice to my
self, / wish you would publish the fol-
lowing in The Record:
In letter from one Of my Cedar
friends l am very much surprised to
learn that there is rumor circulat-
ing out there to the effect that | am
telling back here that the Mormons
purposely shot me during a rabbit
hunt because / was an outsider.
This is an injustice and anyone tell
ing such trash is telling an absolute
and malicious falsehood.
/ have never made any such state
ment, and further more neither N.Y.
self or family think the shooting any
thing but pure.y accidental. While
/ think it was criminal carelessness
on the part of the party who did the
shooting, and that he ought to be q
man and say that he did it, hold nc
hard feelings towards him, and hope
that his conscience is as care-free a.
mine.
l have told hundreds of people Of
the good treatment l received Will,
living there, and in fact have been {
booster for that country, and Away
read with interest any news from
that section.
Wishing you all happiness ant
prosperity, Sincerely, =.

The foregoing from Mr.. Peterson,
for some time a resident of Cedar
City, and who had the misfortune to
be shot while participating in a rab-
bit hunt here, is self-explanatory, and
we are pleased of this opportunity Of
setting Mr.. Peterson right in the eyes
of his friends in Iron county, Of
which he has an abundance. H. E.
was an excellent workman, enterpris-
ing and conscientious, and universal
ly liked by everyone that knew him.
So far as the editor of The Record is
concerned he never placed any cred
ence in the report that our former
townsman was telling back in Mis-
souri, that the Mormons shot him
purposely, but apparently there were
some here that believed that such was
the case.
A personal letter to the editor of
!. The RecnSd --aantain allowing
ADDITIONAL paragraphs, which we see
1no objections to making public:
81 was certainly surprised to learn
of the rumor in circulation out there
in relation to stories / was telling
here about my being shot purposely.
Perhaps someone has it in for me and
is using this means to spoil my rep
utation and prejudice my friends
against me. Why, Wilkinson,
have always said that I had never
been anywhere that liked better
than Cedar City, and the people
throughout that section. I don't think
there is one deal that l made where
there was any question as to my hon
esty, or where l was taken advantage
of. have made the statement time
and time again that l never had SO
many verbal contracts anywhere and
as little trouble and as few misun-
derstandings when the settling up
time came. In fact if it had not been
for the serious condition of my eye,
/ should in all probability be out
there now doing my little part to-
ward the building up of that section.
can't think that many people there
believed such tommy-rot."

A Portrait Of Charles Anthon.

His outward personality was unique
and impressive. He was a trihe
under the average height, erect as an
Indian and inclining to portliness.
His head was suberb and his features
strong and finely cut. He was puncu-
ously neat in his dress, the style Of
which was never varied. A short
sack coat hung straight from his
ample shoulders. merging in front
into black satin vest and a very
small gold pin, the whole surmounted
by black satin stock and a high
standing collar with rounded corners
