Mother. and teachers Entefttaiinie d.

Mothers and Teachers Entertained.
In observation of the birthday of
Madam Willard, the mother of Fran
els Willard, the DenisOn w. G. F. U.
entertained the mothers and teachers
of the pupils of the first six grades
OF our public schools on Saturday af-
ternoon at the McKim hall.
Good music was enjoyed and also
several short talks. Mrs. Sims, presi-
dent of the local w. c. T. u, after ex-
tending very hearty welcome to the
guests, introduced County Attorney,
Kahler, who spoke briefly and plainly
On the Iowa law with reference to
the cigarette and pledged himself to
do all in his power as an official to
see this evil banished from our midst.
A reading was given by Mrs. J. B.
Romans in her characteristic manner.
SupertiQdent Humphrey spoke of
the cigarette habit in Denison, the
anxiety of the teachers to help over
come the evil, and of the part which
athletics help in controlling it.. He
recommends that parents enthuse
their small boys to become athletic
rather than financiers or statesmen;
the larger ambitions will come in due
time.
Mrs. McConnaughey, who is here
visiting her son, gave real heart-to
heart talk to mothers, which closed
a very profitable program: While the
dainty refreshments were being served
Mrs. Sears McHenry entertained the
company with several beautiful selec-
tions on the Victrola. This was the
first number of the like gatherings
planned for the coming year.

ENORMOUS COST OF HAULING
By Reason of Slight improvement to Public Roads, Cost of Hauling
 Placed at 23 Gents.

The public roads throughout the country which constitute the primary means of transportation for all ugri- cultural products. for many millions of tons of forest mine and manufactured products, and which for a large per centase=of farmers are the only ave naeS of transportation leading from ll}e point Of production to the point Of consumption or rail shipment, have been improved to only a slight extent.
 By reason of this fact, the prevail. Ing eosl ei hauling over these roads is about 23 cents per ton per mile.
 More that $50090,00o tons are hauled over these roads each year. and lite average haul is about eight miles. from which fl can readily be seen that our annual bill for hauling over he pubic roads is nearly SG5o.0OO000.
 The cost per ton-mile for hauling on hafd-shrfaeed roads should not exceed i5 cents. Ii is tkfrefore evident that F our roads we're adequately improved a large annual Javing iu the cost of hauling woaidl lresult.-vertical Farm

If only small amount of soil can he had il is advis- adp to app'y fl to the seed. The seed should be moiSteHed with ten per cent glue solution Gone pound liquid glue to one gallon of Water1 to make the soil stick Sprinkle the soil on the seed through Il sieve and mix the entire mass thoroughly.
