PLANS MADE FOR BIG BOYS

Fargo, N. D., March 12.-Plans are
being perfected for another big boys

Cooper, as secretary of the North Da-
kota Better Farming association, has
conducted an encampment and it has
met. with wide. spread favor. as one
of the chief attractions of the state
fairs, both here and at Grand Forks.
In inaugurating such a movement at
its state fairs, North Dakota has tax.

has been followed by other states in
Guiding South Dakota, Minnesota and
Iowa. W. &atnA,lE>AN hJ+}'At} r.

graduated for again endeavoring to
have the encampment for one of the
leading attractions at the state fair.

The statewide primary has been re- ceivfng some acid tests during the past few weeks and as might be ex- pected there was no letter place for comparison with the previous methods than in the state of Pennsylvania.

MITLA. 1.-THE PLACE OF DEATH"
Ruins of an Ancient Burial City, Near
 Oaxaca, Mexico.

The ruins of ancient cities, refn- nants of dead civilizations, have d fascination for most people. Be they scientists of great renown or mere mortals of more common clay, some how something stirs within them at the touch of antique things. The av- craze tourist seeking surcease from the daily grind. whether of the college lecture room or of the constant chase of the elusive dollar in trade and traffic, who finds himself in some strange city and learns that not tar off are the weather beaten walls of an ancient temple, shrine, or palace whose history Is a mystery and whose buili- CTS are unknown, hies himself at on"e to that place. He touches the crumb- ling stones, traces the grotesque fig- ures and queer designs, and marvels that such things could have been so many years before he came on earth, perhaps even before the very civihza- ton ofs which he is a boastful part came into existence.
 Mexico Is full of such ruins as these; in Yucatan alone there are some 70 or more. Approach to some of these is too arduous to most tour ists, but on the southernmost shore of the Republic lies the State of Oaxaca, whose capital Is easily accessible "Oaxaca City Is reached from Puebla by the Mexican Southern'-according to a statement In the latest pamphlet on Mexieo, issued by the Pan Amert-

EVERY DAY REFLECTIONS
Love-.

With all Its exquisite tenderness and yearning, the mothers or father S
 love does not signify much to the
 child beyond its immediate protection and comfort, until 1t has learned to
 respond. If the beloved child grows
 up heartless and callous and utterly
 selfish. in what lasting manner has
 the parents love benefited? Until the child learns to give we cannot say
 that it has really received. It has been
 guarded and tended. toiled for and
 fostered. but the love poured forth
 has remained all the while external
 It has never won admittance; the
 child has remained a receiver only, and has not even really received. There may be few cases like thIs
 but there are some, and they power fully illustrate the fact that we chief ly love others for what we do for
 them; and that if we do nothing he
 love we receive is of little avail. It may be said that those who al
 low us to indulge an active love for
 them are in that sense conferring a gift upon us and therefore repay what we give. But the williS Sgness to re- ceive affection, with all the favors and tenderness that affection means, is still entirely passive state. There are persons who are quite ready to
 bask in the sunshine of love, but they give none of it back, they do not
 reflect it. And yet because of some magnetism Tn themSelVeS, some dOm- finance of will or unsuitable receptivity they go on receiving love to the end and pass out of life under debt almost
 wholly unpaid.
 What we must bring ourselves to believe is that the loss is theirs; they have never once known the blessed ness of the affection that comes of do- ing things for others. Their own hearts have never been warmed be- cause they have never been exercised. True blessedness does not come into our hearts when we sit still and do
 nothing; it is only after action that we really receive.

SHEEP RAISING.

For the purpose of stimulating a greater interest in that industry the wool men of the country are anxious that the government should do as much for them as it is doing for the development of other lines of produc- ton. This means in the first place the encouragement of more extensive sheep raising, a matter which has been frequently urged by individuals and organizations throughout the country for the utilization of land, an increase in the output of wool and mutton and the building up of an industry which would result to the benefit of the raiser and consumer, and the nation in general.
 There are numerous fine examples of the benefits of sheep raising, but the wool conference recommends the establishment of several sheep breed ing farms under the care of the gov ernment experts, probably one on the Pacific coast, one in the east, one in the central states and one in the south It believes 1t possible for the sheep breeding industry to be fostered in this way much the same as the horse breeding industry is now fostered by the government in this country and in Europe, and that the sheep breed ing would interest a greater number and be more profitable and contribute more directly to the general welfare of the country.
 Sheep raising is something to which the cast should devote more attention It has some detrimental features but none which cannot be overcome and sheep be given the place they deserve upon every farm. A statewide real ization of the possibilities which lie therein is sufficient to obtain them.
