The Only Remedy.
She wns in the grip Of IN appalling

She broke down over q word she
couldn't at first say, buried her face
in her arms, and let deep, racking
But presently she sat erect again
and, with a supreme effort Of will,
forced her voice to utter the word:
i've got to 60 of alone-away FROM
you, and stay until find it. II I ever
do, and you want me, I'll come back"
The struggle between them lasted
week-a ghastly week, during which,
SO far as the surface Of things showed,
their life flowed along in its accus-
toned channels. But at all sorts of
times, and in all sorts Of places, when
they were alone together, the great
battle was renewed.
The hardest thing about 1t all for
Rose-the thing that came nearest to
breaking down her courage-was to
see how slowly Rodney came to realize
1t at all. He was like trapped ami.
NAL pacing the four sides of his cage,
confident that in a moment or two he
would find the way out, and then, in
credulously, dazedly, coming to the sur
mise that there was no way out. She

Ames, Feb. 2s.-Iowa, the greatest

the model of the stockmen Of the west

his methods and initiate his skill.
Only yesterday ]. D. McGregor, of

talist, breeder and owner Of large
Canadian lands, as one of the repre-
sentatives of a Canadian governmental
commission appointed to inspect, in
vestigate and report on methods Of
beef and pork production as found ip
the corn belt states, completed his
work. He made thoro study of the

Will Visit Iowa Farms.
After spending some time in Chi
cago, he came to Iowa State College to
get all the information possible in a
limited time The animal husbandry
department placed all of 1owa's avail
able information at his disposal.
After discussing the cattle feeding
operation which has been carried on
by the animal husbandry section of the
Iowa experiment station for several
years and also the work which has
been carried on by the Walnut Ridge
Stock Farm and the oninal husbandry
section for the past tAree years, Pro-
fessor Pew made out a suggested route
whereby Mr. McGregor might syste-
matically visit some Of the leading up
to-date beef-making farms Of this
state. ....
The distinguished Canadian may not
be able to visit these Iowa live stock
plants at the present time, but he will
make an extended tour of the state as
soon as the weather is more settled.
= Opportunity For Improvement.
'A1r. McGregor feels" says Professor
Pew, land quite agree with him from
what I have seen, that the Canadian
farmers have a great opportunity to
improve themselves financially by
adopting the system Of greater beef
production, as we'll as pork production.
Unquestionably their conditions, as re-
CARDS feed, etc., are such as to warrant
them increasing very markedly their
output of these two products"
Mr.. McGregor is the father Of Prot

year in the Ames department and was
on the stock Judging team Of 1915.

SIxTY-FIvE YEARS ON
HARDIN COUNTY FARM
Observation-Disclosures.
Special to Times Republican.

Special to Times Republican.
Written. Feb. 2S.-SiXty- five years
on the same farm is the record OF
Mrs. Eliza Irwin, residing near this
place, and it is believed to constitute
record in Hardin county. Claims to
the distinction of longest residence on
a Hardin county farm, which have re-
Gently been made. are surpassed by
Mrs. Twins long residence here. Mrs.
Irwin. who was Sc, years Of age last
January, came to Marshall county
with her husband, the late John Irwin.
from Indiana, Oct Il. 1851. and occu-
piel the Marshall county farm now
owned by Nelson Fiscus. but at that
time the property of her father Late
in the fall of 1852, Mr.. and Mrs. Irwin
moved to the farm just west Of Whit
ten which since has been her home.
4 hewed log house, with fireplace
and chimney of sticks and mud. was
their first home in Hardin county. The
roof, made of clapboards, was not fin
ished, when they moved in. and heavy
quilts We're used to complete the COW
ering of the roof as protection against
the rigors Of an early Iowa winter.
The wind blew away the improvised
roof and the snow drifted thru into the
living room, making it necessary Tor
the pioneer couple to desert their cabin
at an early morning hour and return
to the home Of Mrs. Twins brother,
T. n. Hauser, at the edge of the tim
ber,'' to get breakfast
One of the experiences of pioneer
days. as related by Mrs. Irwin, shows
the perils of the early settlers. In the
fall Of 1858, Mr.. and Mrs. Irwin. with
yoke of cattle and lumber wagon
as means of transportation, started on
q visit to Marshall county relatives,
and coming on to the open prairie
they ran into the path Of rapidly
spreading prairie fire. The cattle
bolted and their speed. doubled by
fright. soon took them out Of the way
of danger.
Mr.. Irwin, by good management and
hard work, prospered in his new home
and in time became one of the wealthy
farmers of Hardin county. At the time
CT his death, on Feb. 10. 1896 he
| owned 500 acres of Hardin county
land and 140 acres in Marshall county.
The log cabin gave place to the
spacious residence which Mrs. Irwin
still calls her home.
Mr.. Irwin was an earnest church
worker and gave literally to religious
undertakings. For some time before
| his death he undertook the support OF
missionary without aid Of others and
| this enterprise resulted in successful
| work for some time.
| Mrs. Twins residence here is be-
iieved unsurpassed in Hardin county.
and she declares she will remain on
the old home place to the end of her
life. She is one of Hardin county's
most honored old settlers and has done
much toward the upbuilding and up
| lift of the community.
