PREPARING FENCES
FOR NEXT CAMPAIGN

The many friends of Undersheriff
L. D. Forncrook and Deputy County
Assessor Lee jolly, are urging these
gentlemen to announce their candi-
dacies for the office Of clerk of the
district court for the election of
1920. Both of these men have had
a great deal of experience in county
affairs, but owing to the confusing
political situation and the fact that
it is some time before the election it
is doubtful if they. will make any
public announcements as to their
plans.
1t is also rumored that promin-
emit hardware merchant of this city
will become candidate for the Of

neered the way other farmer organi-
zatiens are now able to get the ear

In Chicago the anti-farmer COM
mission firms are today trying the
same methods against the Equity
COOPERATIVE Exchange, but without
success for it is growing rapidly and
getting high prices for the stock con-
signed to it, in spite of the "fine"
of 5000 levied against every trader
who is caught dealing with the Equi-
ty. Their effort is futile but the
Omaha hearing will disclose the
truth.

KNITTED KNEE CAPS

Dear Social Corner Sisters: The time is at hand when many people, especially the aged. will find the knit tsd knee cap comfort.
 This Is the way to knit them:
 Materials, 1-2 skeins knitting wor- Eted. one set steel needles. No. 15 Cast on 116 stitches, on three needles, enit 2. seam 2 round and round until you have 1-2 inches in length. Now tegin the gore which covers the knee ay knitting off 24 stitches (plain knit 6ng). Knit these 24 stitches back and forth. taking up a stitch at each side e the 24 every time across, until there are 48 stitches left of the original rib bed portion This completes the upper baB of gore. Now work the lower halt separately, narrowing once at each end ef every row until only 24 stitches are seft on needle.
 Now take up 22 stitches at each side CT the 24 stitches along selvage Of tl,e rore. the same as you pick up the xtttches for the heel o1 a stocking This will bring you to the side points oi the gore. (These points are made Sy the widening ard narrowing as Eiven above. By following directions you will find you have the points wher you have knitted so far.)
 Now divide all Of the stitches (yot Til have 11S altogether) as nearly wen as you can on the three needle. Snd then knit 2. seam until you have { i2 inches, being careful to have tht T5s continuous with those of the up- per portion. Bind off and finish tn, sdees with a small crocheted shell.
 This is a very simple pattern, easy Ap make and fits well. Hope you vii have good luck.

been proclSinled, and since 1853 the last Thursday in November has been annually proclaimed by the president as a national Thanksgiving day.
 Once more the month of this joyful festival is here and the day near at hand when we shall gather around the festive board and give thanks for home and loved ones and for the lives Of those whose vacant chairs recall sweet memories of days gone by.
 It is easy to be thankful at this time when all the world is giving thanks, but why not have twelve thanksgiving months and every day a thanksgiving day?
 I was much pleased recently by the story of woman who kept 9 Thanksgiving Book. She was a work ing woman who had much to try her patience and discourage her. The book was started one Thanksgiving Day after hearing a good sermon on counting ones blessings. 1. In it she iotted down all the l pleasant things that came her way, such as kind words, invitations and little ren3embrances. It took her 8 l long time to i'll her first book, there were many days without single en- ! try, but the second one filed fast 1 CT.
 1 II proved a help iI1 many ways When tierd and discouraged she would read few pages from the book and live over again the pleasures 1 many of which would otherwise never been thought of again.
 Then by learning the inspiration o1 "a little appreciation she formed the habit of praistng others and looking | for the good in them.

HOW TWO. GIRLS MANAGED.

Dear Social Cornerites: During d visit up in Vermont the past month I gained a number Of practical ideas from certain family whom learned to know very well. There were two girls who were kept busy all the time helping in the many duties of farm,
 but who told ne of a profitable experi- nent which they had been trying.
 As Is the case in so many farm homes, they had almost every comfort, but litle ready money. So the elder, who was 2 fine cook. tried making jei- ly' of various sorts; then from the tel ephone directory she would. select a Hist of names Of prominent women of whom si.e chanced to know, writing to them. offering her wares at so much the dozen or half dozen. plus the par- eel post charges for forwarding the boxes in which she securely. packed the tul11blers, surrounded by hav She had, worked up quite nice little list of customers and was able to utilize the windfall apples. the grapes and what not or the farm in 8 really prof : itabla way. since her expeases were small, as she would have Taaaet the jelly for family use any way. ss The younger daughter was .auite as ! clever as her sister.
