It has been ten long years ago,
Since she was taken away
How sad our hearts and home
How we miss her day by day.

We bow unto His will
The golden gates were open
A gentle voice said Come"
And we trust some day to meet her,
In that eternal home.

BOB M'LANE NOT DEAD

Bob McLane, VINO took possession
of a little island in German Lake, LIE
Sueur county. during the year 1891,
and who disappeared from tnat is
land about two years ago, paid The
Springfield Advance office visit
Friday morning. The. island is gov
eminent land and two years ago he
was forced to evacuate by the courts
on the charge of trespassing. He was
found guilty and fine of $14 or thir-
ty days in Jail was imposed upon him.
Lacking the funds he served his
time. He then disappeared and 1t
was Thought by the people of the vi
entity that he had drowned as his old
boat was found floating on the lake,
Tut it was not SO, he just left his
troubles. He went to Lake Shetek
where he has been employed at the
lake resort as toll gate keeper. He
now has come back to appeal to the
officials for a square deal tin the
matter which he thinks he did not get
at that time. He believes he has rea-
son to expect those who were instru-
mental in causing him to vacate the is
land to provide for his future main
tenance. He is fifty seven ~ears
old now, is crippled and his eyesight

unity would have resulted it is diff
cult to say but DIT any rate the Italian
parliament, seeing the menace of the
situation, called conference OF rep
resentatives of the Czech, Slovak.
Rumanian and Jugo- Slav groups now
under Austrian domination. The
meetings were held with the sanction
of the Italian government. There was
full and frank discussion of all the
problems of supposed conflicting aims
of Italy and the other races represent
ed, and two very satisfactory results
were achieved. First Italy recognized
the justice and right of the subject
races of Austria to independence, and
secondly, she acknowledged that
there was no conflict between that
principle and her own war aims.
These declarations had a further
beneficial effect in Strengthening the
civilian and military morale of Italy
and in dispelling the vague cloud
which had appeared to threaten
Italian allied relations.
Result Summarized
The Importance of the conference
is best summed up by the words of
a very prominent allied statesman.
who said:
Italy has shown herself ready to
extend to the Poles, to those gallant
Czecho Slovaks, to the Rumanians
and last but not least, to the Jugo-
Slavs, the principles on which her
own "Risorgimento" was founded, and
on which she still may go further than
she has ever done in the past. That
is a great work, and those who have
borne any part in it may be proud of
their accomplishment, have always
felt that there was no inconsistency
whatever between the aspirations of
Italy and those of Jugo- Slavia. 1t is
welcome, not only because it is just
and true, not only because it in
creases the cordial cooperation of the
allies, but also because it emphasizes
and brings more into clear relief the
principle for which we are fighting"
Economically, the entrance of the
United States into the war has pro-
duced a much more favorable stu
alton in Italy. The closer cooper
alton in the operation of The combined
allied tonnage and the more scientific
location of supplies has appreciably
relieved the fuel and food shortage.
Today more than at any time
since Italy's decision to join the
allies, the latter owe her confidence.
She is holding practically the entire
Austro- Hungarian army y on her
front, an achievement which is of the
utmost value, now that Germany is
free of the Russian menace. She is
holding that army until het time
comes to sweep it from her home
land.

Wheat crops for Minnesota, about
ninety million bushels; South Dakota,
fifty to sixty million bushels: North

on present indications as noted by
Mr. Smith during his travels in those
sections He stated that there are
some indications of rust, but in most
cases it came too late to seriously
affect the crops.
Except in few southern sections
the grain crop is in excellent con-
dition," said Mr.. Smith. ''In Mime

North Dakota will also yield good
