The Quiet Life,

Often we rebel at what looks to us
like the narrowness and emptiness Of
our lives. There Is so little variety,
so little Of the unexpected and the
dashing. We forget the loveliness of
gray life-the delicacy, the subtle
tints and shades that are only possible
when experiences come sparsely or FL
tered through long periods of waiting.
Quiet lives are more exquisite than
crowded ones, just as quiet shadows
are more exquisite than crude sunlight.

Picking Pins From Throat.

The. swiftness and ease with which
a doctor can remove bone, pin or
other object from the windpipe, esoph-
agus or even lung Is often astonishing.
This is when he uses one Of the tubes
that enable him to look right down
into the organ, see the foreign object
illuminated by an electric lamp and in.
sert a delicate forceps with which to
seize 1t and draw 1t out. Without the
use Of an endoscope there Is much dan
ger of injuring the tissues by blind
feeling for the offending object.

barberry bush should be dug out at
once.

One of the best ways to insure a
good clean corn field is to be sure
that you do the first cultivating
right. Get up close to the plants
that's the only time you can-and
when you can-and when you cover
UP hill, stop and uncover it. That
may take little longer but I know
that it pays.
We are willing to try and get any
bulletins that the farmers want. II
you want a bulletin or any other in
formation about the farm, let us
know and we will get 1t for you.

jitney and can get around the 'coun-
try some now, so don't be surprised
If you see me some day out to your
farm. I'd feel better if you would
ask me to come.

Farm Bureau Notes.

Most of the corn is up and look
ing fine.
If you let us know a couple of
days ahead when you need men, we
will try and have them ready to go
to work.
Last week we wrote an item on
Labor" Did you read it? If you
feel as We do, tell your neighbors.
If you don't, tell us.
We have some directions for kill
ing cut worms. If you are bothered
with them, let us know, especially if
they are in your garden.
We will be very glad to help you
get rid of those patches of quack
grass on your farm if you will come
in and tell us about them.
The farmer who keeps even a lit
tie more wheat than what he knows
he will need for seed next year isn't
hardly doing the square thing.
1t will soon be time to put up the
first crop of alfalfa. Have you got
your mower, rake, and other tools
fixed up so as to be ready for the
crop?
Last week we mentioned harrow
ing corn. That is a mighty good way
to kill lot of weeds and put the
ground in good condition for the first
time over with the cultivator.
1t isn't too late to "stab" in good
seed where the corn hills are miss
ing. Don't think that just because
there are one or two hills missing
in one corner of the field that that
isn't necessary and own't pay.
/ attended sale of pure bred
milking Shorthorn cattle at Mission
Hill last Friday. Sixty-two head
sold for over $4,000. They were
fine lot of cattle and we believe
that the pure bred business pays.
Three progressive farmers from Bon
Homme county bought stock there.
From June 10 to July 13 there
will be Free Tractor School held
at the S. D. State College. The di-
rector assures that 1t is to be real
practical school for boys, young men,
and women, and farmers. That sort
OF thing appeals to me and I be-
lieve that a good many Bon Homme
county farmers could well afford to
attend, especially the young men. If
you desire any further information
you can write to the Summer Ses-
sion, S. D. S. c., Brookings, S. d.

intelligence.

An intelligent person is supposed to
be one of cultivated understanding; a
person who has acquired large store
Of knowledge, but not necessarily in
the schools or colleges, for many high
ly intelligent persons have been self
educated men and women. Intelli-
gence Is characteristic of the mind
rather than Of action or manners.
There are highly intelligent people
who are socially impossible because Of
self-conceit or boorish manners.

eases from eating carcasses. For in
stance: A cow suddenly died on a
farm and was dragged out for the
hogs to eat. In few days they
swelled in their throats and as the
farmer said, "all died with the quin-
sy." The fact was the COW died of
anthrax and Of course the hogs died
of the same disease. Frequently
the question is asked, why is it not
safe to feed dead animals that are
not diseased?" The proper reply is
How do you know the dead animals
are not diseased?" Don't take
chances.

Dallv Stock Letter.

UNITED Press Leased Wire Service.
NEW YORK, March 4.-The New
York Evening Sun financial review to-
day said:
Through the first half OF today's
session Of the stock market, prices
ebbed and flowed aimlessly. The
tendency for the most part was to-
ward lower levels, undercurrent OF
resistance to pressure which event
ually brought about a turn for the bet
ter at midday and slightly qu1ckened
trading.
Standard industrial and railway is-
sues were a fraction to point low
er. Some stocks were bid up. notably
Baldwin Locomotive which gained
some three points; Distillers Secur-
tiles, General Motors and in lesser de-
gree, Mexican Petroleum, Republic
Steel. American Car and Foundry and
the like.
Rails were very thinly dealt in.
Firmness continued through the late
trading.

FIVE YEARS
AS PRESIDENT
Wilson's Hair Has Turned Grey Dur
Ing Past Year, Since Amer
lea Entered the
War.

limited Press Leased Wire Service.
WASHINGTON, Mar. 4.-President
Wilson at noon today rounded out his
fifth year as the nations executive
and the eleventh month OF his leader
ship in the worlds war work.
The day found him engaged with
some of the most perplexing problems
that have faced the nation. 1t found
the country passing through the val
lev of the shadow-the darkest hours
of its war with Germany.
It passed, however, without ap1ar'
ent notice by the president. He had
an unusually long list OF engage
ments, some of which bore on inter
national questions.
And behind this work doomed the
big questions of reply to the latest
German peace maneuvers and de-
cision on this country's attitude to-
ward Japan's proposed Intervention
in Siberia.
Under the weight OF his executive
burdens, the presidents hair has
turned very grey during the last
wear But his health is excellent,
his capacity for work undiminished
and his appreciation of fun and en-
tertainment continues to keep him IN
a frame Of mind to appreciate the
serious. sublime and ridiculous in a
war torn world.
