Ohio Girl Sends
Note DOrpn River

The call of distress by the imprson-
ed princess in 4 dungeon room over
looking the rivey--the note wadded up
in flash and turned lose for the
waters to carry to the armored knight
who ultimately will rescue her from
bondage, was carried out in the little
yellow creek called the Whitewater
river. The adventure lacked some of
the romantic details such as the
princess, the dungeon and the knight
but the bottle, note and river were
there
Miss Katherine Penland of New
Paris, is the heroine of the story. In
spirit of adventure a few days ago
while the river was at flood tide, she
placed a tightly corked bottle in the
roaring waters where the Whitewater
passes through the town. In the
bottle was a piece of paper on
which was drawn beautiful soaring
bird. Other than that, only her name
and address appeared.
Katherine is not a princess and is
not imprisoned but her message reach
ed two Richmond young men who
picked the bottle up on a small island
in Mortar lake yesterday.
Believing they saw a chance for a
display Of herOism, when the bottled
up note was found, it was quickly TAX
eli from it's flask and opened. How
ever, the message fell on barren
ground for the finders refused to
recognize the romantic element con-
nected with the finding of the note
and failed to HE themselves to New
Paris in search of Katherine, who at
that time was displaying new Easter
toys on the streets of her home town.

SCHOOL
GETS HIGH HONOR
Placed on Roll Of Secondary
Institutions With GREATEST
efficiency.

Principal Pickell, of the Richmond
high school, has just received word
from the North Central Association of
Colleges and Secondary schools, that
the local school has been put on the
list Of schools having the highest
standard Of efficiency in the country.
This rates the Richmond school as
one of the foremost secondary educa-
tional institutions.
The purpose of this organization,
which numbers among its members
the most prominent educators OF the
country, is for the listing OF schools
according to the work done. A list OF
questions. some 800 in number are
given to theNprincipal OF school de-
string to take the test OF efficiency
and these questions must give an &C
curate account of the work done at
the school,
The Richmond school had not been
on the list of honor schools for sew
eral years and the announcement that
the school had been placed on the list
is gratifying to the local officials.
One of the results of the listing will
be that students of the school are
guaranteed a standard of work that
may not be surpassed by any second
airy institution in this country.
Another result is that a graduate
Of the Richmond school will be able
to enter any college or university
without taking an examination. A
graduate of the Richmond high school
will be admitted to any institution by
having successfully completed his
work in the local school. This was
not the case before the announcement
of the Richmond's schools acceptance

Vetch should occupy an important

In four years comparisons on over
500 fields, vetch has consistently made
heavier growths and greater yields

RETURNS FROM WORK HORSES
Many Little Points Arc Enumerated
That VIII Lessen Cost Of Animal
Labor on the Farm.

tBy A. II. BENTON, Assistant Agricnl-
turist, University Farm, 81. Paul.
Mimi
One Of the most frequent sources OF
loss on the farm Is Insult Client return
from work horses. AZ.
Have you satisfied yourself on the
following points?
DO your horses earn enough to pay
for their feed and care, and enough
to meet the interest, depreciation and
other expenses. as harness costs and
shoeing?
1t costs 800 annually to keep tho
average horse, in Minnesota, but this
horse works only a little 0 than
three hours each working day. This
makes the horse labor cost approx
mately ten cents an hour.
DO you handle the horse labor ON
your farm 30 that the annual cost Of
keeping your horse is less than tho
average, or 10 that the number Of
hours worked Is greater? Both meth
DDS VIII reduce the cost OF the horse
labor. but the latter offers by far the
greatest opportunity.
Can you revise your cropping sys-
tenn 30 that fewer work horses will be
needed, or 80 that the work will be
more equally distributed and thus
make It possible to employ them more
hours each year?
Can you raise colts and thus reduce
the cost OF keeping your horses?
Can you arrange to use your work
horses for outside work when not busy
on the farm?
Can you reduce the cost Of keeping
each horse by feeding less feed or
cheaper feed and still give a proper
ration?
Farm work done with fewer horses
means a saving Of 500 a year for
each horse not needed.
