GOOD AMERICAN FARM HANDS
Workman Who Does Not Match Sun
Too Closely and Who 10 Undue
trious 10 Appreciated.

Some of the arguments used by
union organizers are that unless we
organize our conditions will be as bad
as they are in England. l don't be-
lieve the time will ever come In
America when farm workmen will be
treated as slaves-half-fed, over
worked and poorly paid. American
farmers, so far as I can judge by 20
years of experience. are disposed to
treat workmen decently and pay fair
wages. OF course. there are excep-
tons. but as a rule a good workman
who does not watch the sun too close
ly and who is willing and industrious
is appreciated. The class of Ameri.
can farm workmen is a great deal
better than in England now, and as
the condition of our farms is steadily
improving the quality of workmen will
grow better. not worse.-A Farm
Hand.

Ideals.

Have you ever noticed that in al
most every case the successful farm
ers are men who have definite aims
that they are men with ideals? A
thinking man who plans to get the
better things usually gets them, too.
We need more ideals in farming.
Especially is it important that the
young men should get the right ideals.
Unless a man starts cut with a belief
in live stock farming and a determine
ton to get something out of life be-
sides money he cannot make the
greatest success. In forming these
ideals a good plan is to consider the
methods used by the successful farm
ers in your community quite care
fully.

TO SECURE SOUND SLUMBER
Conditions Must Be Right, Especially
To Man Who Must Quiet Ae-
tivity of Brain.

Many men and women, especially
those past their first youth, find diff
Guilty in procuring the sound, restful
sleep so necessary to keep mind and
body fit. Although, physically, the
body is tired out, the brain is as alert
as ever, and perfect oblivion is impos-
sible.
A well-known physician gives some
interesting advice on the matter
Insomnia" he states, "is one Of the
penalties of the increasing strain
modern life throws upon our brains
The man who works with his muscles
and lives in the open air Is rarely a
victim of sleeplessness.
"The essentials for a good nights
rest are mental repose. requisite
amount of muscular fatigue, comfort
able body heat and plenty of ventila-
ton.
"The most difficult to secure is les
sened brain activity. An excellent
plan is to take a brisk half-hour's walk
just before bedtime, followed by Z hot
bath and a rundown, and then a cup
full of warm milk and biscuit or two
as one gets into bed.
IF, in addition, the mind be focused
on some pleasant but not exciting
topic, a nights rest is assured to all
but the most chronic sufferer.
"The type in which the sleeper sud
denly awakes an hour or so after -hav'
ing fallen asleep usually means that
more outdoor muscular exercise is re-
quired"

was awaiting the arrival Of steamer
to take Il 70 Russia.
The explosive was to be shipped to
Vladivostok on the steamer Hazel Dol
lar. now loading army supplies at Ia
coma. II became known that two
weeks ago the Russian consul in San
Francisco received information that an
attempt would be made to blow up the
Hazel Dollar before she left port.
Detectives we're employed by the
Russian government. and for two
weeks have been guarding the Hazel
Dollar. Walter r. Thayer, local rep

guarding the.steamer. said he believed
an internal machine had been concealed
nong the cases Of dynamite stored on
sde scow, with the expectation that
the explosive soon would be placed
aboard the steamer.

could offer no other explanation for
the explosion than that it was mali
cious. although he admitted that he had
been unable to gather any evidence in
support Of this theory.
