Benefits From Gardenino.

The man who puts in honest and con- scientious work on his garden must be a winner, even if not one radish ever finds its way to his dinner table. He is benefited by the vigorous outdoor work. He is strengthened by the con- sciousness of having done his best. And he has gained valuable experi- ence which will enable him to do bet ter next year.
 It is safe to predict that the gar dens that fail to produce anything will be very few. The spirit which in- spires the backyard gardener is the spirit that works miracles. Of those who undertake the work with little hope the majority are likely to be happily surprised. Even partial sue cess is an abundant reward, and it will be an incentive for more intelligent though not more conscientious work in the future.-Exchange.

Non-residents May Assess By Mali.


 In commenting on the provision in which requires that property shall be assessed in the county in which it is located, Attorney General John D. Ar buckle said that it is not necessary for the assessment to be made by per sonal visit
 "A resident of one county who owns property in another county is not re- quired to go to the other county to assess" MT. Arbuckle said. "All that is required is that he shall have his schedule before the assessor at the time when the property is to be as- sessed. If the schedules are made up and mailed to the assessors by June 1, the requirements will have been met.
 While it is not necessary to have the schedules in the hands of the as- sessor until he reaches the locality in which the property to be assessed is located, to avoid any difficulty which might be experienced through lack of information concerning the assessors itinerary, it would be we'll to have the schedules mailed to the assessor at the county seat by June 1. In the taxpayers home county, of course, as- easements will be filed at the regular scheduled time.
 "The most distinctive differences between the new law and the old on this point are that the assessments must be made in the county in which the property is located. either in per son or by mail, and that the taxpayer himself must make the assessment. This assessment, however, is subject to review and equalization by the township boards
