Prepare For The Fairs.

During the coming few weeks
farmers who have pride of produc-
tion will be thinking of gathering
exhibits for the parish and country
fairs. In getting together the best
specimens of farm products, let
care be exercised to just as great
an extent as if you were certain OF
having exhibits good enough for
the State Fair. By selecting with
discriminating hand and eye are
the winning products picked. But
don't be hypercritical, for even if
your best" does not seem good
enough to you, yet it might be
better than anything shown in its
class. One frequently doesn't
know how good a thing he has
until comparing it to what his
neiphbor has.-Modern Farming.

Caring For Farm Tools.

If you are to get the full value
from your investment in improved
machinery and better implements,
YOU must watch the implements
and machinery as you would watch
your horse or your COW, or your
self. You must protect them from
the weather, protect them from ac-
cidents. You should reduce the
wear and tear to the lowest posi-
ble point, by making repairs as
soon as they are needed, and by
knowing why the engine OF the
food chopper or the pump is mot
working as well as it was yester-
day.
These things do not make life
on the farm harder; they make il
easier. All of the suggestions that
are made by our contributors OF
subscribers, and 10y thoughtful
men in the colleges, or the tarn
demonstrators, look to greater com
fort, to greater ease, to greater sa
tisfaction for the farmer. 1t il

Reporting A National Convention

It is the dream of every "cub' newspaper reporter that some day he will be assigned to report a national convention. These gatherings are the biggest news events to be covered in American life.
 The task of covering one of these historic meetings is not just what the "cubs' reporter thinks it is. The news paper reader may suppose that the staff writer sits in his reserved seat eagerly scratching down with a pencil vtub what the orators are saying. But actually he may not be in the con- vention hall much of the time. The Associated Press gets all the public will read .of. <he speeches. It is for the star reporter to keep close to the real centers of action.

dope at it's real value
 Covering national convention ade- quately involves a wide personal ac- quaintance with the leaders of politi- cal life. The reporter must be able to gain their ear in this crowded and tense moment of conflict and turmoil. Ten words from a man who is help ing pull the real strings will be worth more to his paper and to it's readers than columns that untrained man could pick up around the headquar- ters.
 This shows what an intangible thing good newspaper work really is. To the public the real information and sshot air. look about alike But if one reads the dispatches carefully and notes the outcome, he will see that the trained man made shrewd forecasts of the situation, while the others were simply using the guesses of outsiders.

Iwlrat was considered thorough military education by researches and reflections which in later years enabled him to teach the art of war to veterans who had never dreamed of his novel combinations. Bad luck was all that kept NapoleoH from getting position in the army, for the fact of his earnest desire to gain more knowledge by research and reflections proves that he was worthy and capable,-as you know from history.
 Two men with equal knowledge Of mining go prOsjecting, each alone. One leaves town three weeks before the other. The first goes into a certain part of the country and, we'll say on to certain hill side. He looks about and picks around but finds nothing of any value. The second travels over the exact same route and onto the same hillside. His toe catches on a twig and he falls. He turns around with curses on his lips to investigate the cause of his fall But his curses turn to exclamations of joy when he sees quartz. He investigates and finds it is ledge. He chips off some small pieces and finds that they bear gold. He stakes a claim and returns to re- cord 1t. His samples assay well' and he has found fortune where the first man failed.
 Can you say that the first was not awake? No, for in that case the second was not awake either, because he had to stumble before he found wealth.
 Was it carelessness on the part Of the first? No, for the second was careless too-and I guess he must have been careless for he had to faIi to find wealth.
 Then what are you going to call lit? It was LUCK, pure and simple
