NEWS FROM THE
FARM AND RANGE

Wheat News of Duluth-Writing
from Duluth to the local Farmers
Uni,n Grain Agency w. w. Harrah
gives some interesting information.
He don't think it possible to sell any
northwest wheat there this year. on
August 10 there was spread Of so
cents a bushel between the spot and
September prices owing to the fact
/ the crop IS late and the flour mills
had orders 60 fill. Crops are good in
| that country but late says Mr.. Har-
rah The corn crop Is failure ow-
/ ing 10 too much rain on the night
Of August ~ there was frost in Du-
luth Oregon barley is better than
the Minnesota variety and might be
sold there, Northwest farmers have
spoiled the Minneapolis market by
sending in poor and mixed lots Of
sacked wheat. They cannot handle
sacked wheat there and charge one
cent a bushel for bulking sacked
wheat at any time
Using The Grain Bags--An indica-
tion that the wheat Yield here has
been generally better than was ex-
pected a month ago is found in the
fact that farmers who had grain bag
orders with the Farmers Union Grain
Agency have generally taken all the
bags they had contracted for. The
orders for bags were placed a year
ago and in most cases farmers or
dered what they thought they would
need, In the Helix country most all
who had ordered bags took their full
supply

DAYS BEFORE CHRISTMAS
When the Joy Of Your Riddles
Brings Tender Memories Of
Years Ago.

In these strenuous shopping days,
writes Louis James, have you caught
yourself remembering suddenly, in all
sorts Of queer, unexpected places, all
sorts of queer, half forgotten things?
Have you remembered how these days
before Christmas are the wonderful
days in the life of the child, more
wonderful days, perhaps, than any
that are to come?
You know that yourself. You can't
help recalling how time went by those
days before the great day. You re-
member how each day seemed some
how more wonderful than the one be-
fore, each day a prelude of real joy
to that first marvellous moment of
Christmas morning, when, after a
night of little If any sleep, you scram-
bled up and stood breathless on the
threshold of the room which had been
forbidden you all those interminable
hours that went before.
The child you take with you through
the wonderlands of the modern toy
department wants what you did. The
little girl stops before the baby doll,
wide eyed, still with desire. The boy
stands flooded with happiness before
creation. You remember what a small
thing your own was, fourth the size
But his joy is no greater than yours.
He pushes toward the rocking horse
Now it runs by machinery, when once
you ran your own across the floor to
the imminent danger of total destruc-
ton to persons and furniture that
might stand in the way. But Christ
mas day was your day. The day when
"don'ts" were not and you were king
or queen in your kingdom of toys.
You pass on to trains and there
again electricity is running them. You.
pulled them yourself.
Then you catch the look on the face
Of your boy. He is watching the huge
engine move slowly, smoothly along. It
passes under infinite tunnels and
bridges and over made hills that pre-
sent intricate difficulties of passage.
Your tunnels were of chairs and the
table in your kitchen made splen-
did bridge to cross.
He turns to you, the child of this
twentieth century. His smile is be-
attic. He wants it-that train. He
never wanted anything so much be-
fore. He never will again he is
sure.
And as you move away you smile,
little sadly, little gladly. You are
proud to be able to make him so
wonderfully happy, this child of yours,
but you are sure. too, that he is no
happier than you were these same pre-
Christmas days, those years before.
The Caldwell tribune. [volume] (Caldwell, Idaho Territory [Idaho]) 1883-1928, 1915-12-24

never went close enough to investi
gate.
Christmas day they made him put
on the smoking jacket. Life was not
the same after that They told him he
mustn't smoke that vulgar, shocking
old pipe while wearing the lovely
jacket. Everybody thought he was
cured of the deadly corncob. He quit
smoking the pipe, and instead brought
home a bale of cigars.
He made a handsome figure, wear
ing the braided smoking jacket, and
putting cigar with a gilt band around
1t. We left him, smoking happily BY
the stove. In one hour we returned.
Uncle Peters was still consuming
cigars. On the floor lay the family
cat. 1t did not raise its head at our
footsteps. 1t would never look up|
again. The picture frames on the
walls had turned green.
Uncle Peters denied that his Flor del
Mule Ear segars had killed the cat.
He insisted she had rolled over after
taking one squint at the smoking
jacket.
Useful gifts often have a way Of
making themselves useful when you
least expect it. For instance, we
buried the cat in Uncle Peters smok-
ing Jacket
