Lucky Thirteen,

Once there was a man who found
the number 13 most lucky for him
self. His name was John Hatfield.
and he was a soldier in the army Of
William and Mary. doing guard duty
at Windsor castle. One morning he
was arrested on a charge. Of having
fallen asleep at his post before mid
night. The court condemned him to
die in spite of-or possibly because Of
the fact that he declared he had heard
the great cathedral clock strike thir-
teen times when 1t tolled of the hour
Of midnight After the death sentence
had been passed a score Of persons
came forward with the statement that
on the night In question the clock had
actually blundered in Its count. includ-
ing the single stroke for the quarter
hour with its hour stroke 1t was re-
ported to the king. upon investigation.
that the striking apparatus was weak.
and John Hatfield was promptly par
doned.-St. Louis Globe-Democrat.

the anthropoid apes have been kept

the microbes that man harbors In his
mouth. Man has more or less success
fully learned how to disarm those in

those near relatives Of his whose bod.

them. Mankind has no better friends

Lecturer National Farmers Union
A broad campaign of publicity on
the subject of rural life is needed in
this state today to bring the problems
Of the farmers to the forefront. The
city problems are. blazoned upon the
front pages OF the metropolitan dali
les and echoed in the country press,
but the troubles of the farmers are
seldom told, except by those who
seek to profit by the story, and the
glitter OF the package ofttimes OBJ
scures the substance. A searching In
vestigation into the needs of the
farmers will reveal many inherent de-
fects in our economic system that can
be easily remedied when properly un-
derstood and Illuminated by the pow
err of the press. "
The rural press, the pulpit and the
school are trinity of powerful In
fuences that the farmer must utilize
to their fullest capacity before he can
occupy a commanding position in pub,
lie affairs. These gigantic agencies are
organized in every rural community
and only await the patronage and CO
operation of the farmers to fully de-
velop their energy and usefulness.
They are local forces working for
the best interests of their respective
communities. Their work is to build
and their object is to serve. They
prosper only through the development
and prosperity of the community.
Every farmer in this state should
subscribe for the local paper, as we'll
as farm periodicals and such other
publications as he may flnd profitable,
but he should by all means subscribe
for his local paper, and no home
should be- without it. The local paper
Is part of the community life and the
sditor understands the farmers prob
lens. II Is the local press that will,
study the local. problems and through
Its columns deallwit1 subjects Of most
vital Importance to local life of the
community.

The Power Of Advertising.

The influence of advertising is clear
ly visible in the homes and habits of
the farmers, and the advertising col
umns Of the press are, making their
imprint upon the lives of our people.
The farmer possesses the things that
are best advertised.
The farmer IL entitled to all the
advantages and, deserves all the lux.
uries. Of life, We; need more art, SCI
snce and useful, facilities on the
farms. and many homes and farms
are well balanced In this respect, but
the advertiser can render a service
by.teaching the advantages Of modern
equipment throughout the columns of
the rural press. ... .@
