"UAT night Lucy Morley slept
peacefully for the first time IN
many months.
And that same night Agnes Morley
lay awake for the first time in a year.
The thought of her good fortune,
and the excitement of picturing what
the morrow might hold for her, brought
that morrow into being long before
she closed her eyes.
She had little doubt that she would
be able TO satisfy her employers.

FATHER HARE CALLED

Rev. Father Robt. W. Haire passed
away at st. Luke's hospital at Aber-
deem Saturday, following second
stroke of paralysis. which he suffered
that day.
Father Haire was we'll known over

and waged valiant and successful
tight FORTS adoption by the new state

ANOTHER FARM PRODUCT

Who has stopped to figure out and
realize that trained army officers con
stitute one of the important crops
produced by the American farm.
That's what former Secretary of
War Garrison says.
The land-grant colleges -agricpl-
tural colleges, that is--of the country
graduate about 5000 students annu-
ally. They are required to take a
course in military instruction in these
institutions; and the war secretary
declares that the great majority of
these 5000 are turned out so we'll
trained that with very short inten-
tive training they would make excel
lent commissioned officers of the
lower grades.
Most impressive is the statement
that these agricultural colleges turn
out, year by year, more men with
training to make good army officers
than all the other training instru-
mentalities in the country.
There certainly seems to be nothing
| that the American farm can't pro-
duce, ii put to it, and of top notch
| quality.

SEEDING OATS

Bulletin: Oats usually follow a
cultivated crop such as corn or pota-
toes, hence il is not generally neces-
sary to pillow the land before sowing.
oats do well on fall plowed land; but
if the land has not been plowed in
the fall, better yields are usually pro-
duced from sowing in a seed bed made
by disking and narrowing than in one
made by spring blowing. Early seed
ing for oats is very desirable. AS a
good seed bed can be made much
more quickly with the disk harrow
than with the plow on land that was
in a cultivated crop last year, the
saving in time is an advantage Two
diskings and one narrowing with the
spike toothed harrow Will put clean
land in good shape for sowing with
the drill.

VARIETIES ARE INCREASING

The development of bird life on the
northwestern prairies is shown by
reports of birds found at different
times by white men who travelled in
the Dakotas. The Lewis and Clark
expedition in 1904, reported sixteen
kinds Of birds noted by them IN their
exploration, among them wild tur-
keys. The great naturalist Audubon,
in tour Of the Dakotas in 1S42, found
and recorded tifty-three different
species, and also classed the wild
turkey in his list. Bird lovers who
have been listing the birds on the
Dakota prairies within the past year
have found more than two hundred
different varieties, and the one of the
wild turkeys is not in their lists at
the present time.

CAN KILL DUCKS THIS SPRING

Duck hunters may oil up the old
shotgun for use this spring, as it is
reported that federal authorities hav e
announced that they will make no
effort to enforce the migratory bird
law the coming spring Wherever
the federal law prohibiting the kill
ing of ducks and geese in the spring
season conflicts with state law the
latter will be given precedence, it is
stated.
The game wardens office in Illinois
has received word to this effect and
it is understood the same announce
ment has been forwarded to the Iowa
game warden.
Scores of hunters will, no doubt,
be prepared to take advantage of the
ruling. The creeks and small streams
i'll this seeajon of the state will afford
unequalled hunting

PATRONAGE MANEUVERS

Huronite: Incidentally it may be
remarked that Senator Johnson insti-
gated the election that enabled Hur-

their choice for postmaster and then
Mr.. johnson sent in the name of Mr..
Simmons, who had not participated
IN the election, turning down the man
who received majority of the votes
at the election. This is mentioned
merely as a scrap of history and as
illustrative of popularity Of Mr..
Johnson. The posUmastership was
settled before the election. Why the
election?

TO DIM AUTOMOBILE LAMPS

In the Woman's Home Companion
for March is the following recipe for
dimming automobile lamps tempor-
arily where the bright lamps are pro-
hibited
"By coating the inside of the front
glass with any grit soap, which dries
white. Permanently. by having the
glasses ground with emery and water,
or by painting them on the inside
with melted paraffin, or pasting IN
circles of tracing cloth or thin tissue
paper. The result is soft glow,
which is strong enough for running,
yet which complies with the law"

The native white elm and hack berry
are much favored as street trees. The
native ash does not grow as large,
but is very drought resistant. The
box elder gives a dense shade but
needs much attention in the early
years to prevent struggling and crook
ed growth. The quickest results
come from the cottonwood, but after
some years it gets too large and gives
but little shade.
