mys black eyes roved restlessly
around the Sunday-school room, but
feeling the young .cuFate's eyes fixed
upon him reproVingly, lowered the
lids to conceal their irrepressble
dancing, and his mouth assumed a
penitential droop, which somehow did
not belong there.
Your teacher tells me-" said Fa.
Their Rose, that she has given you the
same lesson for eight consecutive
Sundays, and that you don't know it
a bit better today than you did the
first Sunday you had it,
It's true, Father said Tommy,
meeting the priests steady gaze with
what he meant to be a penitent look.

''You will never meet with that
kind of a death, Tommy" said the
priest, trying hard to repress a smile.
But how about the evenings?"

But that isn't all, Tommy. Your
teacher also complains about your
conduct in class. She says that you

bad example to the other boys, and

Did she say that?' asked Tommy,
in an aggrieved tone.

Tommy's black eyes were raised
wistful1y to the clear blue eyes above
him, but he said nothing.
81 don't believe you are malicious,
Tommy" continued the priest; but
you should be more Thoughtful. 1t
was very careless and thoughtless
thing for you to do, to say the least,
to wrap that nest of field-mice in my
robes last Sunday before Vespers, and
then go off and forget all about them.
Imagine the panic they created when

EMPRESS EUGENE AS NURSE
Uses Her Home as Hospital and Per
sonally Supervises Care of
Officers

London. - Although the Empress
Eugene is almost 80 years old, she is
taking the greatest interest in the
war and has set aside an entire wing
of her house at Marlborough Hill for
the use Of wounded officers. Several
injured officers are now recuperating
there and their aged hostess person
ally supervises their care.
Her estate is near the great camp
at Aldershot, which King George and
Queen Mary visit frequently. Prac-
tically all of Empress Eugenie's men
servants have joined the army in
France. Nevertheless, she entertains
many of the distinguished military
men who visit Aldershot, apologizing
for her plain fare and explaining that
her cooks have more important work
now than preparing food for an aged
empress and her guests.

had beeen hoped in each locality. The

that some misunderstood the work OF
the county agent in thinking that he
is to do such foolish thing as to &c
about the county telling the people
just how they shall operate their
farms. He is not an expert nor a
man who knows it all, for that is
something that is expected of no one
He should know much and know where
to get the help that his people ask
o f him if he can. Working under the
joint direction of the farmers, the
State Agricultural College, and the
United States Department Of Agri-
culture, and jointly supported by
each, he is expected to assist the
farmers in determining the best agr;-
cultural practices for the county in
which he is located.
Furthermore, it may be considered
that the county agent is a co-worker

now hard to estimate, however, in
Renville county neighboring on the
north, where the federal demonstra-
ton of controlling is being made
it was found from a complete
census taken that about $4,000 head
of hogs died of cholera during the
year Of 1913. The estimation of their
value is at least 100000. The be-
lief is that Redwood county suffered
nearly as great loss as did Renville.
But this year the county agent was
determined that such a loss should not
occur to the county again. Early in
the year the cooperation of the State
Live Stock Sanitary Board and the
local veterinarians was secured to as
sist in controlling cholera, a wide
spread series of meetings presenting
the method of checking the disease
was held, and arrangements were
made for keeping a constant supply
of serum on hand in the county so
that it would be quickly available for
immediate use in any section of the
county in which cholera made its ap-
pearance.
1t is with great satisfaction today
we view the results that have been
accomplished up to the present time
this year. In all about 1,700 hogs
have been vaccinated in the county

During the past year Redwood
County has employed an agricultural
agent in the person of Mr.. ]. E. Neil,
who has made his headquarters at
Wabasso. In one project alone among
the varied ones which he has been
called upon has he repaid to the
county many times what his services
have cost. That is what has been
done in saving hogs from the dread
ed scourge of cholera. Many will re-

has received in preventing it from

In addition to this work there has

it, selecting seed corn for a breeding
