The Future 0f Pine County.
Az the county agent gets acguant-
cd with the farmers and new set
tiers he notes the problems they are
up against. often wondering what
this county Will be like s.. 10 or go
years hence.
A particular case on one Of Pine
County's farms IL interesting and
Encouraging to others This man to
whom refer came here about -
years ago with about $1,000 all his
savings from 12 or t3 years work.
To-day he has sold his farm. which
was fairly well equipped and de-
vcioped. His present worth Is APP
proxImateIy $21 900. In other words
he made, approximately, $20O0 here
IN the same time az he saved $1,000
elsewhere.
OF course. part Of the 100000 must
be credited to the gradual rise in
land values, bat the larger part Is
due TO changing the stumps aud
brush into productive fields sur
rounding comfortable barns. well
lighted and ventilated stables. silus,
root houses aud attractive homes on
good roads. The main increase In
land values are due to the character,
thrift and pride among all the people
Of n community and IL what
might bc termed community value.
For instance. land Of the same type
quality and location may sell for and
BE- worth more In one place than
another because the community value
Is higher. a successful and pro-
gressivc farmer In such n communi-
~ enjoys and helps create the high
or community values. while n sue
ccssful farmer In an unsuccessful
community H. not able alone To make
the community values what they
should be and the fruits of his labor
never fully ripen because communi-
ty values are low.
This fact leads the writer To be-
lieve that whether Pine County rca-
liacs It's full possibilities In go or 60
years depends to II great extent upon
how rapidly public sentiment for
greater cooperation. teamwork and
community pride crystallizes IN the
minds and actions Of the people over
the county. The county's future Is
what the people make II; nothing
more. nothing less.

combination Of obstacles and natur

CREDIT PNEUMATICS

Two remarkable motor trucks will

ing east and the other west. on tours
arranged by the United States Tire
Co.
These trucks were two Of three
old trucks which were the first veh-
icles ever equipped with big pneu-
matte truck tires.
The three trucks were equipped
in 1911 with the first set OF these
tires ever manufactured. and they
have run on pneumatics ever since.
Every one of the three trucks
which were put on pneumaticS way
back in 1911 is still in good running
order and capable of sturdy daily
service. The design Of the trucks
is so antiquated that they attrac;
immediate attention. Practically
every other truck of their vintage
has long since been scrapped, yet
these trucks live on.

DISCIPLES OF JACK SHEPPARD

A case which was investigated in
the Police Court this morning was
listened to with close attention by all
present. Two youths, one an Alex
andrian, and the other CT Kansas
City. Mo-, were charged with felon-
les. They have, it is alleged, been
breaking into and rotbing stores in
this city during the past few days.
The Alexandrian has been IN trouble
on other occasions, but, under the
present laws concerning Juvenile Of
tenders. he has managed to escape
the due measure Of his deserts. The
youth from Kansas City is one of two
brothers, one Of whom was killed
while fighting III France. The sub
ject of this notice ran away
from home two years ago. He Is
said to be the offspring of wcil-todo-
people, whc enjoy the confidence and
respect Of those in their home city.
The youth now about to face the
grand jury looks to be all Of eighteen
years of age, although he alleges ne
is but fifteen. An account of their
exploits is printed elsewhere in the
Gazette.
People acquainted with the history
of Jonathan Wild. ''Blueskin." and
Jack Sheppard will see that the cY-
ample Of these criminals is still being
followed by some young people. no
matter what their parents nay do TO
arrest them in their downward ca
reer.
1t was shown a: the investigation
this morning that after entering Il
King street store these daredevil
youngsters secured gun and several
pistols. which they loaded and placed
at convenient places for the purpose
OF using the same should the police
enter while they were at work At
the time the robbery was in progress
officers OF the law were watching on

MUST RETURN DANZlG

The supposed intention of the
Peace Council to give the city Of
Danzig to Poland, and to separate
the Rhine provinces from Germany
ard erect them into an independent
state, has greatly angered Germany,
so the reports tel US. The Berlin
newspapers are in resentful mood.
The Lokal Anzciger says, awe re-
gard it as absolutely certain that
these demands will be rejected II
they are made and likens the CIV
ing of Danzig to the Poles to larceny.
But. says an exchange, we~may ask
Germany, in the classic language Of
the immortal Tweed, rWhat are You
going to do about it," Whether
Germany accepts the terms or NOT
will probably not affect the result,
except possibly to make the terms
harder upon Germany if She rejects.
Whatsoever man soweth that shall
he also reap. AMI Germany is making
il manifest that this applies to ma

Germany is rcaping the whirlwind,
the natural and Inevitable crop from
that which she has sown. She is in
10 position and is powerless to re-
s;st such terms as the Peace Council
will impose. Her army is scattered
and demoraliZcd, her navy gone,
with no firmly established govern
mcnt, and torn with internal dissen-
sions and warfare among her own
recple, Germany must submit to the
terms imposed by her ccnquerors,

terms imposed by Germany IN 1871.
