Fatal Either Way.

A rather turbid orator noted for
his yerbosity and heaviness, was once
assigned to do the campaigning in a
mining camp in the mountains, says
the Pittsburgh Chronicle-Telegraph.
There were about so miners present
when he began, but when at the end
of q couple of hours he gave no sign
of finishing, his listeners one by one
dropped away,
Finally, there was only one auditor
left, d dilapidated, weary-looFing old
fellow. Fixing his gaze on him, the
orator pulled out large six-shooter
and laid it on, the table: The old fel-
low rose slowly and drawled out:
Be you going to shoot if go?'
"You bet am" replied the speak
ser. "I'm bound to finish my speech,
even if I have to shoot to keep an
audience.

manner and edged slowly away, say

UNIQUE INDIAN VILLAGE.
Pueblo Settlement i'm Arizona Oldest
of Its Kind.

Probably the most unique settle
ment in the United States is the Pueb-
To- Indian village, located in Arizo-
ma, says the Christian Herald. This
village comprises fifteen hundred
peaceable Indians, whose sole and al
most only aim in life is to secure
livelihood as easily as possible. This
settlement is located in the hottest
section of the State, but the excessive
heat is not uncomfortable to these
people. whose ancestors have lived IN
that desert. section for unnumbered
generations. Wastes of burning sand
stretch for miles and miles on every
side of this village.
& "a peculiar thing about this people
is that they have two distinct villages.
The summer village is located upon
the. floor of the valley, where the
Pueblos occupy themselves in agri-
culture. The produce they raise, over
what they need to eat during these
hot months, is stored away for win
tersuse. There are only few places
in that section Of the desert where
water is obtainable, and in these
places the Pueblos pursue their prlm-
itiYe agriculture. s asons come and
seasons so, but as each goes by 1t
sees these people living as they did
during the preceding one. Since the
white man first knew of this colony,
which was back in the sixteenth cen
tury. the habits of this tribe nave not
changed. They eat the same Kind OF
food, do the same sort of fancy work
and live just as did their ancestors
So far as is known to historians, THIS
is the oldest colony of any kind IN
this country.

WAYS TO GET SLEEP.
Many Methods Used to Produce DroW-
siness and Slumber.

There are many other methods used
to induce sleep-little tricks that do
not make one more wakeful, but tend
to produce drowsiness. There is the
common method of getting in COM
Portable position, closing the eyes and
picturing a broad meadow, surround
ed by a stone wall There are beau
tiful fleecy clouds in the sky and there
is sound of bells in the distance; a
flock of sheep wish to get over the
wall into the meadow-or out OF it
and YOU begin to count the sheep as
you see- them jumping over the wall;
one after another, and as every fifth
sheep goes over you hear a bell from
the distant church, which you count
Between the counting of the sheep
and the bells you will soon sleep.
Then there is the house-furnishing
way; take your own home and refur-
nish it room by room; or build new
house and furnish it. You will be
asleep before you have the first floor.
Here is very successful way Of
wooing sleep; put yourself in COM
Portable position and then close your
eyes, having a piece of paper on the
bed under your hand and pencil for
making a mark on the paper every
time you take deep breath. You see,
you have to keep your attention on
the matter in order to put down that
little mark. You are doing two
things; taking the deep breath,
which is muscular, and which brings
in oxygen and helps burn up the .pois-
ons; then you are also making little
mark-that moves the muscles of
your arm slightly but not enough to
arouse you or keep you awake.
Sometimes repeating rhymes and
jinkles, taking full, deep bfeaths be-
tween words or lines, will hasten
sleep; or lying in a certain position
may work in other cases. One man
can always sleep if he lies on his left
side and reads for a few minutes.
Many people try the reading plan,
but it is better to form some other
go-to-sleep habit.

Coal Production.

The output of, bituminous coal in
the United States for the first six
months of 1915 is estimated by G.
E: Lesher, of the United States geo
logical survey, to be between 1S0,-
00O, ,000 and 190,000,000 short tons,
the rate of production having been
from S5 to 80 per cent. of the aver
age for the previous year. Thus the
bituminous coal production during
this six months period has been con-
-siderably less than for the CORE
spending period in 1914, and is little,
if any, greater than the output dur
ing the last half of that year. The
rate of production this year decreas-
ed after January, reached low ebb in
March and April and is now on the
increase. ). The States west of the
Mississippi river, which in 1914 pro-
duced less than 13 per cent. of the
total, do not appear to have suffered
from this decrease as much as the
eastern States reports from certain
districts in the West showing an In
crease over 1914. This is attributed
to the increase in metal mining and
smelling, and to greater railroad &c
tivity. In the East the loss of bunk
er trade on the Atlantic seaboard and
the slowness of the lake season have
been partly offset by thel increasing
coal exports. The recent activity in
the iron business has been slow to
affect the coal trade, although coke
has gained considerably during the
last two months; and for the rest OF
1915 the increased output should con-
tinue. The anthracite producers have
Jared better than the soft coal opera
tors, since it is estimated that the
output of anthracite has fallen OH
only from to per cent. below the
average for 1914.-Science.

the north wagon bridge out of the road
and bridge fund and that they had
agreed to pay $3.50 toward. the same.
The cost will be about $500 and the
Pine Tree Manufacturing company has
agreed to bear half the expense up to
$500. City Clerk Schallern: was int
structed to advertise for bids for the
work.
E. s. Brown appeared before the
council and made proposition to them

YIELD At THE SCHOOL farm
ALFALFA, RYE AND OATS BRING
GOOD YIELDS BUT CORN
WAA A FAILURE

Al. e. Larson, agricultural instructor
In the local schools, has figured up the
yields from the school farm for this
/ year and states that although they
were retarded by late frost in June
and by excessive rainfall and an early
frost this fall, they turned out satis-
factory and im some instances the
yields were very good. The success Mr..
Larson attributes largely to the TACT
that the soil and seed was prepared.
Two acres of alfalfa returned 1881
Tbs: in three cuttings. This offered
good demonstration of the effects of
lime and NO lime. The part lined yield
ed nearly four times as much alfalfa
per acre as the un1ined part, showing
the necessity Of lining soil in this vi
cinity in order to raise the fking' of
all forages,r alfalfa
The potatoes were not satisfactory
since some were drowned out and the
others were planted late due to tho
failure of clover stand. The yield
was $40 bushels.
The corn failed to ripen due to the
cold wet summer, but the stand and
growth was sufficient for weld Of
80 to 80 bushels per acre. There is
big future for corn.
The rye was exceptional for this wear
in spite Of the late frost in June which
caught it in bloom. The WELD was 80
bushels per acre. The variety is Wis
consin pedigreed.
The barley in spite of lodging early
yielded well, producing 46.4 bushels per
acre. The variety is bevond a douh*
the best for this region. It is the pedi-
greed Oderbrucker six row barlev.
Oats yielded verv good. One and one
eighth acres of light sandy soil Welded
~ bushels, or better than 20 bushels
per acre. The variety is White Rus
sian. A second field produced 1917
bushels Der acre On good average soil.
The VARIETY is Improved Ligona.
Seed Grain from each of these can be
obtained from the board Of education
or through the agricultural director. It
pays to seed pedigreed grain of i'm
proved varieties. Just as it paws to
raise pedigreed live stock.

CRIMINAL TO NEGLECT NAN
TOWN SUPERVISORS LIABLE IF
INJURY BEFALLS A PERSON
WORTHY OF RELIEF

St. Cloud Journal-Press: That it is
the provided duty Of the town super
visors and the same rule it is believed
applies to a city or village, to care for
the poor within its limits and that If
any injury comes to a member Of a
poor family by neglect Of such duty
the town supervisors are liable is the
opinion received from the attorney gen.
eral in letter to County Attorney
Paul Ahles. The letter omitting the
name Of the town in question is as fol-
lows:
Paul Ahles, ESQ.,, County Attorney
St. Cloud, Minnesota.
Dear Sir: A statement has come
to this office that the supervisors
Of the town OF. in your
county, have neglected the care Of
certain poor family therein.
1t has been held that if super
visors have the duty Of caring for
the poor neglect their duty, and
any injury is caused to the poor
family by such negligence, the
supervisors would be liable. It is
my impression that there has been
somewhere a holding to the effect
that if supervisors neglect the poor
to the extent that such poor per-
son dies, such supervisor will be
guilty of manslaughter and liable
both civilly and criminally. The
statement comes from ....... of
............. I would be greatly
obliged if you would either advise
the supervisors to inform them
selves as to their duties as such
towards the poor, or take such
steps in the matter as your sense
of right deems best. -
Yours. truly,
Lyndon A. Smith.
Attorney General.
