Pin.M0ney

When pins were frst introduced into
England, less than 400 years ago, they
were SO expensive that only wealthy
people could afford them, and those
who could were as proud of the fact as
people are today over the possession Of
automobiles.
Then, as now, the statute books con-
tanned some very peculiar laws. Among
them was q aregulation permitting manu-
facturers to sell their pins only on jan
uary lst and End. So, when the good
wife went forth on these dates to get
her pins, she bought them with what
she called her "pin money" To have
"pin money" in those days was an indi-
cation of social position, and we can
imagine the people liked to exploit the
fact. The expression has been pre-
served with somewhat the same sig
nificance. To have ''pin money" is to
have money that does not have to be
spent for necessities.
1t may be interesting to know that alb
out l, 500 tons of iron and brass are used
in the manufacture of pins in the
United States yearly.-From The Peo-
ple's Home Journal for February.

Farm Records May Mean Success

The easiest, quickest, and best way
of doing things is sometimes the way
which is hardest.
The baseball pitcher comes off the
diamond ringing wet with sweat. He
works hard, but that was the easiest,
the best, and the quickest way for him
to win.
Someone asks you if you keep records
on your farm. You give him to under
stand that you haven't time for such
foolishness. Too much work! Too busy
for that! Remember, that may be the
easiest, the quickest, and best way to
your success. Business men have some
times increased their profits as much as
300 per cent by knowing what they were
doing.
What does it cost you to grow bushel
of oats or ton of hay? Are you selling
alfalfa hay when you might better feed
it to livestock? Keep some records. If
you find this to be true, feed your neigh
boris hay and make profit on two crops
instead of one. That is business.
Some methods of farm bookkeeping
are easier than others. Get good me-
thod and enjoy keeping records. %.

lege, Fort Collins, Colorado.

Miss Margaret Rucker's birthday.
The Pleasant Valley Literary Society
met at the Swanson school Wednesday
February 2, 1916. A debate was had on
the subject: Resolved, That the United
States should adopt compulsory military
service" The judges decided in favor
of the affirmative. The weather being
bad most of the other numbers were
omitted only q recitation and community
prophecy being given. 1t was decided
that our society should unite with the
Spencer Literary Society in a joint meet
ing and debate on February II.
few members of the Pleasant Valley

Splitter and Dake to plan q part Of the
program for the joint debate. A de-
lightful time was had with delicious re-
freshments in the evening.

Owing to the fact that there are four candidates asking for the
Republican nomination for Governor, and a majority OF them well
qualified to fill the position, we had hoped to have but little to say
on the Govermorship proposition until after the primaries, when We
scur1ulous attack on Major J. H. Frame in Saturday nights Jour-
nal of this city, we feel that in all fairness to Mr.. Frame that if
we did not make a reply that we would not do our duty to the pub
lie. The Journals head editorial is headed "Fraine and Booze"
and the statements contained in the article are as false as hell, and
no one knows it better than the one who wrote it. But politically
order to try to get votes from him. 1t is fresh in the minds Of the
people of Ramsey county, how this same Journal abused and ma
Hinged Senator Gronna for several years, never stopping at any lie
they might make up, simply because they did not like him person
ally, and then after all this abuse, came out and made a statement
that it was all a mistake and practically said that they knew they
were lying all the time, chewing" back everything they had said
about the Senator. Now, any newspaper that will do that about
one man, is none too good to do it about another, and that j. just
the tactics they are adopting against Frame in order to keep up
discord in the Republican party. The Journal is unreliable, it is
unfair, it is a lying sheet, and the people of Ramsey county know
it, and that is one reason that a knock from that paper is only a
boost, and that is the way it is going to work with Col Frame.
We hold no brief for MI. Frame, but the people who have known
man and an honorable man. and that he is true to his friends and
fair with his political enemies. If he had not been such a man he
could not be where he it at this time. He has served several terms
in our state legislature and is now lieutenant governor of this
great state. He was Colonel of the North Dakota militia in the
PHILIPPINES, offering all he had, his life and position to protect and
and our state. He is a self made man, starting as a hard working
boy, with no one to give him aid and support, but gradually climb
ing the ladder of fame until he has reached a most envlable posi-
ton. Whether he is wanted for governor, or not. he enjoys the
confidence and respect of every fair minded man. And this is the
same man who the Daily Journal is willing to class with the booze
of what the Journal is saying about Frame. Just remember the
case of Gronna and the Journal. That should be sufficient to set
tie in your mind the t%ruthfulnesS of the Frame article in that
sheet.

Robert Ross. of Lexington. Neh~ makes IN honest living by run:
ming a livery stable. Four years ago. and again this year, he filed
as q candidate for the nomination, for president Of the United
States on both the republican and democratic tickets in the Ne
braska primaries. His vote, this year. is apparently between 49,
600 and 10000. about half Of it being poled in the democratic col
umn and the other half in the republican column.
A citizen Of Wayne, Neb, noting the extent Of the Ross vote:
wrote to Mr.. Ross. shortly after the primaries. in the hope of
learning something as to his views on public questions and his
training and qualifications for the office. He received in reply the
following letter:

is very t1uly-Robert G Ross Lexington Neb."
The facts are submitted to a candid and patient public.
What is the conclusion to be drawn?
&, When 10 per cent of the republicans and democrats of Nebraska
sufficiently interested to participate in the primary election cast
their votes to nominate for President of the United States. during
one Of the most critical periods in the republics history, the man
who wrote the letter above quoted, what does it mean?
