Roman Numerals.

. You should all remember the rule for
writing the Roman numerals. Nv, <
and L are the letters used up to 100,
which is represented by G. D is 500.
and M is 1000. See how nicely the
system is formed We have I, II and
III, and then instead of iii for 4,
which would be cumbersome. we have
w, which means one less than 5, for
when letter is placed before V, <, L
or G it means that the number repre-
sented by that letter should be sub
tracted. On the other hand. when a
letter follows it must be- added. Thus
we have V. 5; vi, 6; VII, Z; VIII, s,
and instead Of VIII for we have TX
-one less than 10-which is much more
convenient than writing v with four
rs after it. By way of exercise sit
down and write all the numerals up to
100 and you will get the system so well
fixed in your mind that you may be
able to read any inscription that you

"A VISIT TO THE BEAUTIFUL
TOWNSHIP OF EXCEL

Last Sunday afternoon We editor
and his family and Mrs. F. c. John
son motored to town Of Excel to en-
joy visit with the P. B. Malberg
family. Arriving at this hospitable
home shortly after one o'clock, we
found fine and substantial dinner
waiting for us and which we i'm
mediately proceeded to enjoy. After
dinner we inspected the commodious
new farm house in process Of con-
struction. The walls were nearly up
at that time, and are built of cement
blocks made right on the farm by
Mr.. Malberg himself, assisted by his
boys. There is a full basement under
the house and the foundation walls
are enduring stone masonry. The
builder expects TO finish the house so
far that it1aay be occupied this win
ter. Thanked on three sides with
stately evergreens, oaks and many
fruit and ornamental trees, the sett-
ing of the house is indeed picture
esque. We next inspected the garden
which Jack Frost had ravaged to
some extent and picked up and car
ried to our auto some pumpkins,
squash, rutabagas, cabbages, monster
sunfowers and large variety Of
ornamental gourds. Nearby we no.
ticed large field Of clover with it's
second crop ripe and uncut and which
will yield large quantity Of seed.
The potato crop was good and the
small grain, especially the corn and
rye, had turned out quite well. Mr..
Malberg is an. Intelligent, progressive
farmer and is also very we'll posted
, on matters of public interest. One Of
his boys has taken a course at State
College of Agriculture at St. An
thony Park and is putting his knowl-
edge to use on the farm. One daugh-
ter, Miss Mildred Malberg, is grad
uate of the Warren High School, and
has since been engaged mostly in
teaching She returned: a few months
ago from California where she spent
over year visiting with friends and
she is now teaching the village school
at Clearbrook, MINI. Another
daughter, Miss Stella, graduated from
the Thief River Falls High School
last year and is now taking the nor
NAL course at that school. While
we were at the Malberg home DR..
johnson, of Newfolden, arrived for a
visit. He halls from Cannon Falls,
Goodhue County, Mimi, the same
place near which MIR. Malberg was
born and grew up as a boy. Later
in the afternoon Mr.. J. 0. Sather and
family of Thief River Falls came
over in their car for a visit and to
secure for themselves a supply of
pumpkins, squash and other products
of the prolific garden. Mr. Sather is

TIME HAS ARRIVED
TO SWAT THE FLY.
KILL ONE NOW AND PREVENT
BIRTH OF MILLIONS LATER
ADVICE OF STATE EXPERT.

Iowa City, May Aft you want to
swat the fly" effectively, do it now, is
the advice Of DR.. Mark F. Boyd, cpl
demiologist at the state university.
THE warm spring days bring forth
the house flies which managed to sur
vive the winter" says DR.. Boyd. 1T
is very important to kill all Of these
survivors possible. 1t only takes eight
days for the adult fly to be developed
from the egg, and each female fly
lays several hundred eggs. Conse'
quently, the descendants of single
fly may number millions by fall.
"All places which furnish food for
the young flies or maggots should be
destroyed or removed. Piles of man
ure, filthy stables and other places
which furnish the needed food for
flies should be cleaned up.
"The following rules, If thoroughly
carried out, will materially reduce the
fly population:
a. Remove all manure at least
once a week. Clean up all other
sources of filth of similar nature.
"2. Thoroughly screen your houses
