County Agriculturalist
Returns From Auto Trip

Luther j. Chaplin, county agricultur-
list, has just returned from an automo-
bile tour of ten days in Washington and
Oregon. The chief trouble on the trip
was the absence of sign boards and the
difficulty he had in knowing what road
to travel, especially around Ellensburg.
Coming from Portland this way, the
first Salem signs were seen at Dundee.
Mr.. Chaplin favors the placing of signs
directing travellers to Salem as soon as
they are out few miles from Portland.

all leading and all cross roads, so that
motorists will have Salem in mind as

DIGNITY FORCED UPON AGE
No Real Reason Why a Certain De.
gree Of frivolity Should Not Be
Allowed Older People.

The worst thing about age is that
1t seems to call for dignity. At least
dignity has been fixed to age in such
a manner that where one wears gray
at the top and has not dignity, he is
more or less repulsive to those with
whom he comes in contact
Age is not by nature dignified; dig
nifty is an artificial accomplishment,
forced upon the race through socalled
amenities. Age would like to romp
and play on the ground like youth ;
age would kick up it's heels and yell
and whistle If it were not for dignity.
So when a fellow is old enough to
realize that he is expected to be dig
nified, and young enough to want to
be colt forever, it is pretty hard to
get along and keep the face straight.
Not that one should not be serious
at times. Indeed. one should be seri-
GUS most Of the time. People talk
about always wearing smile; it is
wrong. The fellow who is eternally
smiling, who is always light of speech
and thought-he is quite as much of
a bore as the fellow who is too seri-
Gus. There is happy medium, a
smile when smile is in order a Sc
rious mien when seriousness is the
order of the moment. But there is
no time when age can unbend its dig
nifty. save at the expense of seeming
foolish to the audience. So age goes
about its way in pain, anxious to
break over the traces to frivolity once
more, to play at childish games. to
make mud pies once more to be as
natural as in youth. But such course
of conduct is denied to age, and suf-
fering ensues in many cases.-Colum.

TO BE BIGGEST DAIRY AND

Florida is destined to be the big

There is scarcely a legume or a

his place, and every kind Of for.
age crop grown adds to the soil VAL
ne. Not all of them will be grown
here because there are some types
that are so far ahead of others that
those of less value will be abandon
ed.
In Florida we need to build no
costly barns for winter housing and
this is especially true as regards
beef cattle. Dairy barns are q nee

nutritious wild grasses grow, but
pastures can be made and are being
made, but the real milk and beef
producing foods are grown N cultl-

they grow in such abundance that
the question of feed answers itself.
All that can be said of cattle IS
also true of hogs. The hog is

old man. Tell you, son, that was a
fierce blow. All ready cash, too, and it
was like throwing money in the fire."
You know you promised to give me

That's true, son, but circumstances

lying trick promoter, Vanderbilt K.
Cash! Say, I've got an ideal"
With the swiftness and surety Of a
revelation Ike fixed his mind upon a
powerful suggestion that had come to
him. AS has been said, when he had
looked up the mining company in his
fathers behalf, but at his own ex.
pense, he had plumbed the total depths
of that plausible fraud. He had not
visited its promoter, for Mr.. v. X.
Cash had temporarily retired from
business" A day or two since, how
ever, Ike had read an advertisement in
city newspaper connecting the ener.
getic promoter with new and spe.
cious stock-selling exploitation. Ike
chewed string ruminatively for about
ten minutes. Then he sought out his
father in the turnip field.
Dad" he observed, Il think I see
way out Of my difficulties"
You've got no real Ones" growled
the old man. Being done out of two
thousand dollars is a difficulty. Get.

marked Ike. holding to his theme. If

Sure thing. Get it back? Why
that's nonsense!"
Next, can you spare me for few
days? want to go to the city,"
After that money!"
Eyes, dad"
You're wasting your time"
That's all right-l'll be the loser.
Now Ike was no dullard and love
sharpened his wits. He drew all his
savings from the bank and started on
his mission. There was one thing in
his favor: He had probed the progress
and complication of the mine PROPOSE
