THE FINEST CALF

Dakota Farmer.-Did you see Cali
fornia Favorite at the international?
What a wonderful steer he was. 1t is
hard to imagine a more nearly per-
feet animal, or one more beautiful in
form and finish.
But, yes. i have seen another be-
side which the grand champion ia a
second rater. She was only a calf,
and wobbly legged at that, and awk-
ward. Her color did not exactly fit
the requirements laid down n the
breed book. Her tail took on gro
tesque angles as she made battering
ram hunts at her mother in search of
breakfast.
This is q joke. you say? But wait,
| was looking at her through the eyes
Of a boy who was hearing his father
say. "Son. the calf Is yours. You
raise her and see what you can do
with her. I've loved cattle all my life
and / want you to love them. too, and
do better with them than l have done.
You have a start now. II I can help,
I'll do 1t. But you must depend on
yourself to give sher good care. Re-
member, you are a stockman now"

DEBATING IN HIGH SCHOOL

The study and practice OF debating
should not be left to college alone, Tor
this would deprive many young peo-
pie OF a most valuable experience,
since only a comparatively small per-
cent OF high school pupils ever go to
college, This assertion is made by
F.. r. Brown, professor OF public
speaking in the South Dakota State
college.
Professor Brown a y further: ut
would be difficult to conceive OF any
greater possibilities than debate to
the average boy or girl. Let 1t be re-
membered we are living in a dem0cra-
cy. In the United States public opin-
ion is King. We must have an intel
ligent public opinion which a come
only from an enlightened citizenship.
Every boy and girl should learn
not only to comprehend but intelli-
gently to discuss questions, national
and local, which affect the welfare Of
society; for in the mill OF discussion
the truth is ground out.
Many a man has seen truth driven
to cover because his knees were too
shaky and confidence in his power of
utterance too unreliable to come to
the rescue. We repeat, then, that
this important training for citizenship
ought not to be left altogether to the
college. Neither should it be left
wholly to those looking forward to
the law and ministry. The great body
of soldiers in the cause Of truth in a
democracy must come from the ranks.
Why should not debating In the high
school, be it in English class or under
other auspices, be given greater en-
phasisg

The question OF college education
paying is summed up by Dean Holres
of the Pennsylvania university as fol-
lows: He fixes the monetary value
a college education at from $4,000
to 100000. His estimate was based
on a comparison OF salaries Of college
trained men and those not having the
same advantages. According to Dean
Holmes, the average yearly salary Of
the college man is $1.1S7. while $51s
is the average income of the nom
college man. a difference Of more than
$3.50 in favor Of the man with higher
training. Thirty years. work will
make this advantage worth $4,000,
according to Dean Holmes calcula-
tion.

DON'T WORRY FARM
A FARM OF SEVEN RULES

A FARM OF SEVEN RULES
1. We have faith that, one year
with another, nature is bountiful and
kind.
2. Acting upon this faith WI keep
our soils deep and mellow and rich
and well drained; so that they may
have moisture and strength to tide
over drouths and capacity to absorb
floods.
8. We diversity and rotate our
crops, every season in some fields, af-
ter many seasons in others, so that if
natures ways discontinue one crop
they must smile others into plentiful
harvests.
A. We sell when and where the
world wants our products and store
when it dosen't need them.
5. We strive for permanence in soil
and buildings because our plan in
cludes the future as we'll as the pre-
sent.
g.. We farm for the love Of it first
and to make the most of it second,
that the part OF the world which has
no land may eat from the bounty of
ours.
z. Because OF these u aims we
believe it unnecessary to worry, easy
to prosper, and difficult to be un-
happy.

THE COMMUNITY CHURCH

Kansas City Star.-A young man
often believes he is hopelessly hand
icapped by u~nfavorable surroundings.
He has got to get away somewhere
to make his fortune. Perhaps. But
here is a case recorded in the Coun-
try Gentleman that shows how a man
can make his place under no matter
what unpromising conditions.
Twenty two years ago William S.
Olive, with his diploma from a theo-
logical seminary in Louisville, re-
turned to his native parish in Wake
: county. n. c., settled down on his
ancestral farm and began to farm
and to preach. He had to farm to
live. and IL took the hardest kind Of
work OF live off his hillside farm.
Land in that neighborhood sold for
$40 an acre. Ramshackle tenant cab
ms dotted the country, No one rails
ed more than one crop in a season,
and they did not know how TO dc.
that well. 1t was a shiftless, rundown
place, a hangout for moonshiners,
children were illiterate and the
church was open only one Sunday in
four.
Now, the Rev. Olive gives all his
time to the church work and gets a
salary OF 5000 a year, and is the only
rural church in North Carolina that
supports a full time resident minister.
The church has ATT active members.
Ninety per cent Of the adult popula-
ton within a radius of ten miles are
members OF that church., and so per
cent OF the boys and girls are mem
bers Of the Sunday School. There is
not a pauper In the whole community,
There are only four tenant farmers
within a radius of ten miles. Every
one Is prosperous. The neighborhood
has become noted for its high bred
cattle and its large crops.
Recently a mo%onshiner came down
out of the mountains with a stock of
whiskey, but he could not sell a gall
lon there, because no one there drinks
The moonshiner was converted, pour
ed out his booze, Joined the church,
bought a little farm and is now a
highly respected citizen.
How did the preacher work this
great changes? He identified his
church with every phase OF life in that
community. He built a school ninety
yards from the church. 1.-THE rural
church and school are twin sisters"
he says. He early recognized the
principle that II the neighborhood Is
impoverished the church will be the
same. He became personally ac-
quainted with every person within
ten miles Of his church. made it his
business to know their ideals and
weaknesses, showed them how to
farm better and live better. taught
them thc-yalue OF pure bred cattle,
ministered to the economic needs of
the community as we'll as to spiritual
needs. He made the church and
school the center Of all social activit-
les and saw to It that there was plenty
OF amusement.
Children grow to young manhood
and womanhood In that place and do
not want to leave II. They feel they
cant have sucn good times or be SO
prosperous anywhere else.
ThS incident shows not only how

ifles, but also how the problem OF
making rural life attractive was met
