AVERAGE FAMILY

What constitutes the "average"
family?
Are there three or four or five mem
bers, counting father, mother and
the children? ~
Census sharps have established five
as the average" number. Perhaps in
districts where trace suicide" pre-
walls this number is" correspondingly
decreased.
So after all it may be that geo
graphical location has a great deal
to do with determining the size Of
the average family.
However, It makes no difference
how many, or how old, or how young,
every one of them will derive pleasure
and profit in the possession of the
new illustrated Bible which the Pho
neer is presenting to it's readers. Ev-
cry picture in this Bible tells story
Of it's own.
Some other Bibles are said to be
illustrated, but they only contain
pictures without any particular
meaning placed here and there, with
out reference to verse, chapter or
text. Such bibles may be all right
in their way, but they should not be
compared with this illustrated Bible
where all the pictures have a direct
reference to the reading matter which
they accompany and all except the
colored engrayings are printed right
in with the type. So this is Really"
an illustrated Bible, and furthermore
it is the only one Of it's kind ever
published. i. Pr:
You: will want one Of these Bibles,
so you had better start today to clip
certificates, one of which: will be

FANS WILL APPROVE.
BY HAL SHERIDAN.

When President James F. Gaffney,
of the famous champion Boston
Braves refused to allow his club to
pay fines of $50 and $25 imposed by
President Tener on Gowdy and Tyler
for abusing an umpire he set a new
record in professional baseball that
fans all over the country will heartily
approve.
The public, who in the last analysis
pays for everything connected with
the game including fines heretofore
paid by the clubs when one of their
players was taxed for misbehavior--
is getting tired of the rough stuff on
the diamond.
President Gaffney is the first one
to stick by the new president Of the
National league in his endeavor to
make baseball as clean as possible.
And it is next to impossible to have
decent sport when club presidents
wink at their players capers on the
field by paying all fines imposed on
them.
Sometimes when fines are paid by
the clubs the money is deducted from

y The American: men and women must
guard constantly against Kidney trouble,
because we eat too much and ali our food
is rich. Our blood is filed with uric
acid which THE kidneys strive to filter
out, they weaken from overwork, become
sluggish; the eliminative tissues clog and
the result is kidney trouble, bladder
weakness and general decline in health.
When your Kidneys feel like Jumps of

cloudy, full of sediment or you are
obliged to seek relief two or three times

headache or dizzy, nervous spells, acid

the weather is bad, get from your phar-

take q tablespoonful in glass Of

and your Kidneys will then act fine.

the players salary, but many clubs
conveniently forget to subtract the
fine money on pay day. This has
practically given players license to
set up their own rules of conduct on
the ball field, for when the money
does not come out of his pocket the
average player don't care who he
talks to. -:
The new stand taken by the Ma
tional league on the fine paying pro-
position is equally welcomed by the
baseball public as it is by umpires
who are tired of being nagged. And
in taking a firm attitude towards
this evil the league shows that it has
the best interests of the game at
heart, for nothing disgusts the fan
as unwarranted kicking against an
umpire's decision. Players seem to
forget that the business of the UNI
pire is to render a decision, not to
argue over it.
Not that the umpire is always
right. But when he is wrong he is
entitled to a gentleman's argument
instead of the usual rough stuff play
ers are fond of springing. And if the
player could see the play as we'll as
the umpire there would be no need
of an umpire. So, as long as the man
ayers of the league think an umpire's
services necessary it is just as we'll
to let him do his work.
Evidently the managers are seeing
it this way and the sooner the play
ers do the better for all concerned.
When players have to pay their own
fines they will think twice before
they speak so quickly.

B "The farmer who has taken land
near Bemidji-why did he come? BE-
cause Bemidji is a growing, city.
Land near it is rising, in value. If
the farmer does not trade in Bemidji
the city cannot live. 1t will mean
the loss of schools and libraries; a
decrease in. the value of land, and
finally he will have no relationship
with the merchants and business men
Of the city. If he were not near the
city he could not have the advantage
of the railroad over which to- ship
his produce It ought to mean some
thing to him to have the trust of the
people in him. Certainly the farmer
has many reasons why he should
trade in Bemidji. -:
Larger Charge Necessary.
when goods are ordered from the
mail order house, and, they are not
in stock; the company makes no ef-
fort to replace. them. If your home
merchant hasn't what you are look
ino for h O. vx,ilI ovouf l,;,,o.olR' a., u
something else to please you. = His
money is tied up in his stock so that
you may make your selection at will.
It is only fair. that he charge little
more than the mail order. house to
make the interest on the money the
same as the man whose money is in
vested in bank. ..-.~.
The merchant has countless little
things, such as donations, and sub
scription lists: to pay which the av-
erage citizen does not have, and he
must do it with a smiling face, so
when he charges little more than
the mail order house why. should we
grumble and at once send away
which only means the ruination, Of
our city. g.: !. 49,: .~.. -.>..-.
I'm short, if we are loyal Bemidji
citizens, we will do our trading at
home only for the. benefit of our
merchants and our city, but ourselves
as well."5 -. ~ 49,. 49,.

Fiaht Against Chinch Bugs.

To fence against chinch bugs 1900
miles Of barriers were laid down to
protect cornfelds last year, says the
Farm and Fireside. This cost $4,000,
including labor. The average yield Of
the protected fields was twenty five
bushels to the acre. and it is estimated
that the barriers added to the yield of
corn the value Of $714,710. This sort
Of work has to. be done by co-opera.

Allowing for. labor 5000, mill feed

on Investment $500, upkeep Of equip
ment $500 and incidentals 500, we
have. an outlay OF 1920. This amount
subtracted from the gross income Of
$500 leaves $500 net as compensa'

Not all farmers; can accomplish this,
but such results: are being; attained in
great many cases. =, -.
Not only must agricultural study and
education point the way toward the
successful culture of corn, wheat, cot
ton and rice, but must point the way
toward the most profitable selection Of
crops for particular soils, climates and
markets. As land values increase
farmers must acquire the capacity of
adjusting themselves tosthese changed
values, else they will find themselves
trying to raise crops that can no longer
be produced at profit.
/ There is q multitude of interests
which every progressive farmer will
acquire, and these should be developed
as early: as possible. Good roads, farm
credit, sanitary precaution about the
home, the use Of the latest conven-
fences and an alert community spirit
are among these interests.
Agricultural education In the public
schools must make of the boy an ex-
perimenter for truth. His tnvestiga-
tons must proceed with undated zeal
when his school days proper are finish
ed, and his farm must ever continue
to =be his school. 49, -: ....>. -
