Nutrlment In EnqIlsh walnut.

The English walnut is an excellent
food. It's meat contains six times as
much nutriment as an equal amount
of beefsteak. Doctors everywhere adj
wise It's use ON account of its great
food value. for IFS fatteniug and heat
Ing qualities. Besides being Il tasty
table and confectionery delicacy 1t is
often used FOR pickles, catchup aud pre-
serves. In France many tons are made
into oil every year furnishing a good
substitute for olive OIL in England it
is customary to eat the fresh nut meat
with wine. Experts maintain that
there is no good reason why this coun-
try should not raise at least enough
English walnuts for our own needs,
aud even export few million dollars
worth.

ADVANCING 81 HouaehoId work.

For young girls who have finished
grammar school, who have no money
for further study and who are un-
der the necessity Of providing for their
own support, there Is much TO be said
In favor Of some form Of household
work. Unfortunately, q great preju-
dice exists against II but an ambitious
girl has as good, II not better, opportu-
mites for Advancement than factory
work provides. In the factory she will
be obliged to work MS hard as she can
all the time In order to earn a living,
and it Is impossible to keep up this
effort for more than few years with
ont a nervous breakdown. While In
some factories she Will have an OPP
portunity To learn d trade aud gnin
advancement, this Is not always the
case. The higher positions are COM
paratiyeig few, and the conditions In
the factories not always satisfactory.

Where Man Makes Poor Showing.

A casual study of the animal crea-
ton, in the majority OF species, will
show how utterly thoughtless is man
compared with the ant or bee These
little creatures are fully awakened to
the value OF time. Their lives are of
short duration, and they have intelll-
gence sufficient to appreciate the value
Of every moment No place for drones
among them! Beasts Of prey, and
many others in their natural state,
divide their time between action and
rest-they are always at work or
asleep. Waking hours are wholly de-
voted TO pursuit of prey for sustenanee
of life. The human animal, to the re-
proach Of our natures be it said, finds
time heavy on his hands when he has
a hundred channels Of occupation open
to him that the inferior creature has
not.

HOME CIRCLE COLUMN.
WHY Is IT?

AS We passed along the street on
a recent Sunday we counted twenty
seven young men, most Of them in
their teens, just budding into man
hood, lettering their time away. AS
We looked into their faces, many of
them lighted up by the beacon rays
OF poor cigar or the pernicious Gig
areette, we recognized them as young
men blessed with comfortable homes,
indulgent parents and loving sisters.
We ask ourselves, why is it2 Why do
these young men prefer the saloons
comfortless streets and mixed society,
10 the upholstered chair, the pleasant
and comfortable surroundings of the
family circle at home? Who can
answer2 Dare we charge the parents
ia degree responsible for this state
Of affairs? Are these things as they
would have them? Do you shut up
your homes lest the sun should fade
the carpets, and your heart lest laugh
should shake down few Of the musty
old cobYebs that are hanging there2
If you want TO ruin your sons let them
think that all social enjoyment must
be left at the threshold when they
come home. When once q home is re.
garded as only suitable place to eat,
drink and sleep in, the work is begun
that ends in gambling houses and
reckless degradation. Better let The
fire burn brightly in the winter, the
doors be thrown open ia summer, and
make the homestead delightful with
oil those little arts that parents so
well understand. Half au hour of
msrriment within door, aud lnerriment
OF a home blots out the remembrance
of many care and annoyance during
the day, and the best safeguard that
can be taken with them into the world
is the unseen influence of a bright little
home sanetum. Let parents ponder
over these few suggestions.

We often wonder why it is so many
young men can be seen -loafng upon
our streets until a late hour Of nights
The fathers Of these young men, many
of them at least, are numbered among
our best citizens. II their COW or
their horse or even their favorite dog
was away from home after dark they
would be out on a search for it, but
their own children can roam the town
all night with apparently no effort being
made to find them.

That the churches in any community
exercise a most potent influence for
good is conceded by all except the
most rabid or blatatn inddol whose
egotism and seli-conceit blind his mind
10 the tnestimable value Of Christian
Ivy. But to what extent are the
churches valuable in this community?
The GalileAn teacher said of His dis.
ciples aye are the light of the
world" Eye are the salt OF the
earth" Hence, if all Hs disciples are
the light OF the world and he salt Of
the earth, tho logical as well as the
seriptural conclusion is that they are
the light of the community In which
they live. These declarations, however,
do not preclude the possibility OF the
light going out--being hid under a
bushel-or the salt losing It's sadness.
But certainly no reasonable or fair
minded persons would accuse the
churches Of being wholly composed of
united bands of hypocrltes for IL
matters not to what extent sin, ia its
many forms, may peryade the ranks
Of any church, you will find within
its membership, consecrated men and
women. And it should be borne ia
mind that it only requires q few Of
the aboye-mentioued class to become
the light OF the community,

THIRD GROUP OF
YOUNG Men Leave
More Than Fifty From Here Have
Now Volunteered to Serve
Their Country.

Willmar's third group of boys who
are serving their country, left for JET
ferson Barracks, last Thursday after
noon. In the squad were fourteen
boys bound for st. Louis and one who
has enlisted in the officers reserve
camp at Fort Smelling. Those who
went to the front, were Richard Tay-
lor, Earl Frye, Roy Danielson, Emil
Lindskoog, Joe Downs, Arnold Fred
erickson, William GratZ, Joe Kvam,
Willard Sundfors, Ben Falkingham,
George Madison, ThOrwald ThOrsOn,
Jens Olson and Hans Peterson. Henry
Young went to Fort Smelling.
Again a fine demonstration marked
the sendoff given the boys. The bust
ness houses closed for an hour, and
the parade formed at the court house
grounds shortly before two o'clock.
The band played several selections,
after which a male trio rendered a
patriotic selection. The line Of par
AIDE was formed on Becker avenue, and
they marched around the court house
square, hating on Fifth St., and Trott
avenue. where the high school pupils
fell in line. Headed by the Mayor and
Chief Of Police. with the band, G. A.
R., Spanish-American veterans, and
recruits following, the procession
marched to the station straight down
Fifth ST., going in between the trains
Here the band played patriotic music
and the final good-byes were said.
With the leaving of the bunch last
Thursday, the total sent from this city
reaches fifty-five, and the total from
the county, seventy-one, surely a won
derful tribute to the young men of the
community.

SAFETY commission MEETS
c. n. March Of Litchfield Commute,
Member Left for Washington

Member Left for Washington
Last Week.
c. H. March, member Of the safety
commission, left Monday afternoon
for Washington. He will represent
the commission in a conference of
similar commissions from all the
states which have provided them.
They will take up matters of common
interest and decide on future plans.
Mr.. March states that the princi-
pal work of the commission will be
along the line of raising food. Every
effort will be made to increase to the
utmost possible limit the growing of
food crops and live stock Each coun-
ty will be organized for this purpose,
and persons who stay on the farms
and help produce crops will be con-
sidered even more patriotic than those
who offer their services by enlisting.
He says the food problem is the great
one, and one that the allies consider
by far of greater Importance than as
sistance in military or naval way.
What the allies want of the U. S. is
to supply them with food and see that
it is landed on their shores, using our
navy to protect the ships from sub
marine attacks. Further suggestions
and orders from the Safety Commits
sion will be issued from time to time.
The question of labor for planting,
care and gathering of crops will be a
knotty one, and will call out the best
efforts of the people. City and village
people will no doubt be asked to as
sist in the work of securing the crops.
