Published Letters Sometimes
Give Inaccurate Information

The following is a letter received
BY F. w. Heidel from his nephew,
Ralph Kernkamp, with the Company
g boys in the south:
Mercedes, Tex, Aug. 10, 1916.
Dear Uncle Fred: l have read
some Of the open letters that have
been printed, and all those bear stor'
Ses" are bosh. We are not constantly
surrounded by reptiles, horned toads,
HaraHtaIas, etc., but we occasionally
see Que. l have not seen a rattler or
any animal more vicious than a blue
sacer. have seen deer come right
into camp. We are six miles from
the border and have seen no hostile
Nextcans. OF course we hear about
Shem and the Texas Rangers occas-
ionally knock one over" but we don't
see them. The Rangers were called
over here about 40 miles to stop a
bunch OF bandit rustlers who had got
ten across the border. No, we are not
in jungle either, although there was
quite a bit of mesquite and grease
wood brush which had to be cleared
of, but our immediate camp site was
placed in field which unfortunately
was oyergrown with weeds. The wild,
rank entanglements of vegetation you
heaS Of are nothing but fields overrun
with weeds. l was in the woods here
and had no difficulty in passing
through. Don't let the open letters
deceive you into thinking that we are
a poor, abused, bunch Of weaklings.
They are positively wrong.
Ii CUR cook would watch his work a
little closer we would have no "kick"
at all, but he is careless and burns
quite a bit of food.
Well, Uncle Fred, guess I will
close for this time. Will you kindly
sell the people there how things
stand that we are not over-ridden and
suffering. Your nephew,
RALPH KERNKAMP.

Darlington Farm Doesn't
Feel Wheat Crop Damage

Darlington, Aug. 17.-There is one
farm in this vicinity that will have
about as much to turn into cash this
season as it had from last years bum
per crop. On the Graves & Co. farm
at the east edge of town, no wheat has
been grown for four years. While the
oats and barley will not yield as
heavy as promised three weeks ago,
their loss is more than Offset by the
splendid condition of IS acres of corn.
Last season their corn failed. On the
farm are 120 acres of alfalfa on which
the second cutting is now being made.
With several hundred head of cattle,
sheep, hogs and horses on the place,
all worth considerably more on the
market than a year ago, this diversi-
fed farm is not concerning itself with
the failure of the wheat and other
small grain crops.

BISMARCK POPULATION
SHOWS BIG INCREASE

Bismarck, Aug. Is. - The city
directory, just completed, places the
population of Bismarck at 7,025, in
comparison with 6,157 two years ago.
Those in close touch with condi-
tons declare that this increase would
have been doubled, if it had not been
for the scarcity of residences.
This is the greatest building year
Bismarck has ever had. The apart
ment houses being erected will give
additional homes and the additions
to hotels, new rooming houses and
the new hotel will give better oppor-
tunities for caring for transient trade.

Get Posts Now

The fence post problem is becoming
more serious each year, and the For
estry Department of the Missouri
College of Agriculture has been test
ing various methods of meeting the
situation. Probably the most success
full Elan, for the immediate future at
least, will be to use homegrown woods
giving them such creosote CT other
treatments as will increase their per
iod Ct usefulness. A common and easy
method of treating posts on the farm
has teen charming the butts OF the
rests. Charcoal canrcs rot and lay
er of it around the butt of the post
should furnish very good protection.
In fact, however, this coat of char
coal cracks so badly that the little fun
gus Plants which cause decay are able
t. get through and shorten the life OF
the post.
Charring, then, will not enable the
fence builder to use willow, cotton
wood, sycamore, or black oak, so he
must replace them with the more ex-
pensnve white cedar posts, costing
from twenty-five to thirty-fve cents
apiece, or with the more durable null
berry, white oak, black locust or
hedge posts, which, in many iocali-
ties, are not plentiful enough to sup
ply the demand fully. The more per-
ishable woods sometimes used rust
be replaced every two or three years,
unless they can be preserved in some
way. 1t is this deficiency that the
College of Agriculture hoped 70 en-
able fence builders to remedy, by
means of its experiments, but with
the failure of charming it has turned to
the use of creosote.
Charring failed to lengthen the life
of willow, cottonwood, ironwood
blackberry or Eastwood sufficiently to
make them satisfactory post mater
ials and probably white walnut, hick-
ory, white elm, sassafras, and red bud
are not helped much either, although
tests with them have not been contin-
ued long enough to give the final re-
suits. Charring appeared to give
much better results in case of black
walnut, river birch, oaks, hedge, SUI
gar maple, black locust, honey locust,
Kentucky coffee tree, dogwood, black
ash, catalpa. The sap wood of ca
talpa, hedge, black walnut and black
locust was almost completely burned

sary. Things in the werld about US
attribute to our development and bet
terment. No matter how strong
your bodies may be or your minds may
be, the principle governing you after
all, is that which gives character. The
man who has an acute and searching
mind, who has not principle to guide
him is the most dangerous man in
the world.
We must learn to use our time, to
use our talents, to use our powers,
and conserve our powers. You and l
must conserve our strength of man.
I hood and womanhood that we have
and develop the strongest physique
that we can possibly develop. Ninety
nine out of every hundred persons
| die before their time. Die before
their time, why? Because they have
I not conserved their physical strength,
have not developed their physical
character as they might have done;
and their mental strength as well.
How shall we develop strong char
acteristics? What are those things :?
You cannot afford to have as ideals
many men and wome who appear to
be successful in this life. What is
success? The attaining of money?
A thousand times NO. Ask any mil
lionaire if money ever made happi-
ness and not one of them will answer
that it does. But what I am trying
to say to you is this: if you want to
enjoy life, to have satisfied con-
sciences, to help your fellow man, you
must have higher ideals in this life
than making money.
Three things to be sought for by ev-
cry individual: satisfying of his own
conscience by doing things that he
knows to be right and eliminating
those things he knows to be wrong
that will bring satisfaction to him as
nothing else will. Another thing that
will help to satisfy him is that of
helping his fellow man and having the
appreciation of his fellow man. The
third thing is standing out before his
Great Maker to whom he is respon-
sible, to go before Him with q salts
fled conscience when this life is done,
Those things will bring the most
splendid privileges and enjoyment to
be found in this world
Do you want to be happy, do you
want to be useful, do you want to
hope for this life and the life to
come? Then develop strong, noble
characters and you will be happy
you will have the love Of your fellow
man, and the approval of Almighty
God. That is success.

MEAT SUBSTITUTE

Many of us are eating entirely too
much meat, according to Miss Bah
Bell of the Missouri College of Ag-
riculture. Meat furnishes protein,
which is an important muscle builder
and source of energy, but it has two
great objections: ~ 1t costs more
and more each year, aand (2) it is
very likely to putrefy in the process
of digestion and form Objectionable
acids and other products which are
injurious to the health. Muscle-build-
ing foods of other kinds can be SUBJ
stituted for that furnished by meat
if we will use eggs, nuts, peas, beans
and similar things instead of meat for
one or two of the three daily meals.
Fish is not a good substitute for meat
from this standpoint as it has the
same kind of protein which forms OBJ
jectionable acids.
The extent to which other foods
can be substituted for meat depends
in part upon the character of the work
being done. Less meat and a greater
proportion of meat substitutes should
be used by those who work indoors,
than by those who are in the open air
most of the time, but even those who
are working hard in the open air Of
ten get along well with little meat af-
ter they have been accustomed to the
substitutes if the betterhalf has learn
ed how to prepare them in the most
appetizing way. For the benefit Of
those who wish to use meat substi-
tutes the Missouri College of Agricul-
ture has carefully tested number of
dishes and finds that these directions
give good results;
Pecan Nut Loaf.-Mix together one
cup of bread crumbs, one cup of pc
cans, one cup of milk, one cup of
boiled rice, two eggs, two tablespoons
of butter. Season with salt and pap
rika and bake in a buttered baking
dish. Serve with cream sauce.
Omelette. Beat the yolks and
whites Of four eggs separately. Add
to the yolks thick cream sauce made
of one cup of milk, tablespoons
-four, 2 tablespoons butter, pepper and
salt. Fold in the whites and cook in a
buttefed frying pan. omelettes may
