MAKING A HOME

Admiration is expressed for the Oft
quoted sentiment, He who makes two
blades Of grass grow where but n
grew before is a public b~enefactor.
That is business and it is good but we
may go further and add that it is a
public b%enefaction to ease the burden
from manly shoulders; to smooth the
path of tired motherhood; to paint
roses on the cheeks of childhood. Al.

look on the life given us to live.
The home is the anchor for Ameri-
can life, and the strongest influence
toward right living, true to a greater
degree in the country than in the city.
In advertising South Dakota, the rep
resentation is made by the Bureau Of
immigration that to maintain a COM
Portable home in the new section, the
settler should bring or buy . few
dairy cows, at least a span OF brood
mares, some hogs and chickens. These
will support a family and develop a
farm.
The home should be neat. bright
and cheerful. If unpleasant ur.
