I've put ashes on the children's slid and have made the marshal stop the boys play ing ball on my vacant lot. Whenever l saw anyone prosper ing or enjoying themselves I've started reform to kill the busi- ness or spoil the fun. l don't want the young people to stay in this town and 1 will do all 1 can by law rule and ordinance to drive them away. am against building new church. even though 1 gave nothing.

A Boy You Ought. To Know.

Sheldon Livingston lives on a farm near the little hamlet of Porcupine. Wis. There are reasons why you ought to know him.
 Sheldon is II years old. The schoolhouse is two miles from the Livingston home. Morning and night, through snow, rain or shine. Sheldon walked this distance, swinging his dinner pail and his school books.
 In four and a half years he has not missed day,
 Think of this. city children, you who complain when you have to walk four block: who stay home every chance you get, clap your hands every time there's a holiday and would play hockey all the tune, If you dared.
 Now we have no idea what kind of man Sheldon Livings- ton will make. He may become president of the United States or only a plain citizen living on a Wisconsin farm.
 But one thing is certain:
 In whatever niche in life it shall be his destiny to be placed he will be a steady, punctual, dependable person the kind you won't have to watch.
 To borrow phrase from the stable, he'll stand without being hitched. Southwest American.

It would cost me money. though l made all l have right here. Then. too, more people might come if the town grows, which would cause me to lose some of my pull. l ask. therefore, to keep this town at standstill, that l may continue to be one of chiefs. Amen.

What Can Be Raised On
 A Franklin County Farm.

J. w. and Leon Mckay, who manage the farm of their father Prof. Mckay 1! miles north east of Ozark. are progressive young farmers.
 The farm contains l60 acres, one of the first settled in this section. part of it considered worn out when the Professor bought 1t 30 odd years ago. Now these young men are mak- ing good living on it and put ting some money in the bank. They diversity their crops, rais- ing corn, cotton, sweet potatoes. Irish potatoes, peas and hay, also cattle and hogs.
 They plant the kind of corn that some is in the crib from gathering time to gathering time, after feeding the stock all they need. Last year they sold one hundred and nintey dollars worth of cattle. This year about three hundred dollars worth of hogs; cut about thirty tons of hay and stored it in the big barn loft. Last year they raised 300 bushels sweet potatoes, this year as many, now stored in their rock and cement potato cellar. They fatten their hogs by first grazing on oats, next, turn them on peas, then finish on corn.
 Their mother, Mrs. Mckay, sends to town every week or so, butter, eggs and chickens.
