FOR BOYS AND GIRLS
Opportunity Offered in the
Courses at the Farm School
Jan. q to Mar. "a.

New doors to success are being
opened to the young men and the
young women to west central Mime
sofa by the West Central School of

jects as: types and breeds of farm

months course, but he can take a
weeks course and get a lot of useful
facts. For just such men the West
Central School is offering a week. S
short course which will begin Febru-
airy IA and close February 10. This
is course of an intensely practical
character. 1t puts stress upon farm
ing as a business. 1t will give in
struction also in beef producing,
dairying, dairy types and feeding,
commercial seed production, drainage,
use Of gas engines, ways to build
farm structures, the work of farmers
clubs, and contracts and other legal
forms. In addition, will be offered
talks and demonstrations by men
like H. R. Smith, formerly at Uni
versity Farm, St. Paul, W. A.
McKerrow, and N. E. Chapman of
the Extension Division of the Col
lege of Agriculture, and S. B. Garner,
lecturer on farm drainage. The
evenings will be devoted to social
pleasures and entertainments.

WHAT SHALL BE DONE TO
INSURE A HAPPY NEW
YEAR?

The best resolve to make at this
season is to resolve to make others
happy. This not only brings happiness
to others. but to ourselves, 1t does
not spring from the selfish desire to
please ourselves by pleasing others,
but from that proper self love which
prompts us to do for others what we
would have them do for us. In giving
pleasure we receive pleasure. and thus
the New Year il made brighter and
happier for all.

Housing Poultry.

Probably more failures in poultry
keeping can be traced to improper
housing conditions than to all other
causes combined. We see their effect
in roupy fowls, small egg production,
low Matching power in eggs, and high
mortality among chicks. If a few min
utes were given each day to cleaning
and ventilating the poultry house
these evils would be largely cured and
the poultryman would be amply re-
paid for his trouble.-C. e. Brown,

Will Count Noses

Glenwood Herald. The Commercial
Club went on record at it's meeting on
Tuesday evening in favor of having a
census taken of the population of the
city. The legislature made no provi-
sion for the taking of a state census
this year, although this year would in
accordance with the old order of things
have been the regular time, for it.
We are often asked about our popula-
ton. We know what it was in 1910
and believe it has increased since
then, but of course have no way of
knowing how much. The cost of
having a census taken would undoubt-
eddy be quite small. Sentiment seems
to favor having it done.
