July Fourth Plans,

!Dnring the war the customary ex-
penditure of money for July Fourth
celebrations was greatly cut down. 1t
obvious that all the gunpowder
that could be produced was needed to
discharge at the country's foes. This
: year that use for explosives has passed.
The same crowd that always spent mil
lions in fireworks and noise, will be
Wnhing to blow out again. Sensible
neqple in Warren are hoping that the
dealre for just that kind of a racket
hSekbeen somewhat modified by the ex-
perience of war. Except for those
rllG,hht fully exempted from service, pa
tfotic young men should have heard all
the. banging they want in France and
aXathe camps.
San inexpensive fireworks display may
be justified. But a great many towns
used to go into absurd extravagances in
this line for SO transient a pleasure.
4;:Many towns are going to combine
JN1X, Fourth celebration with a Wei
come Home to the soldiers. Such an
OJ$Alksi0n will never recur again. 1t
may be pardonable to spend some
MONEY for such a demonstration, al
thungh the soldiers themselves would
pTefer to see it so into more substan-
tiaEbenetts.
Except for these demonstra tions, the
country will be foolish if it burns up as
much money July Fourth as it used
to:@ The small boy must have some out
slet, but single bunch Of tirecrakers
should do him as well as a half dozen.
y The most appropriate features are
athletic sports, picnics, patriotic ad-
dresses to emphasize the meaning of
the day, community singing of patriotic
songs, s*parades of military and other
anizations and like observances. It
should be day in which children take
a pEpaninent part, as it is arranged
largely for their education.. This kind
Of celebratio is not expensive, and no
town should let go the chance to pro-
mote patriotic feeling on this occasion.
Warren sheaf., 1919-06-25

N. X. Braaflodt, of Hetland, S. D.,
was a Warren visitor last Thursday.
He owns farm near Strandquist and
made the trip here to look after his
farming interests.
The Vasa lodge of Warren, together
with a lodge of the same order to be
instituted at AlvaradO, will have a pic
mic in Fred S. Peterson's grove, near
Alvarado, on July Goth: A good pro-
gram is being arranged.
We strongly advise placing your Or
der at once for FOrdson tractors, as we
do not believe it possible to get enough
of them to supply the demand. The
FOrdson has made good as the most
wonderful tractor that the genius of
man has ever produced. The price is
low and we carry a full stock Of extra
parts, same as we do for the Ford car.

received, but at this time is reDOrted

,Sixty-fve thousand dollars was paid
for Red River Valley grown Hol-
stein bull at the Holstein auction sale
at the 3. c.. Schroeder farm Thursday
afternoon. Can you beat it! Several
other animals brought sums Of over
to illustrate the possibilities in this
section of the state, and opportunities
awaiting men who use their heads in
applying the principles of science to
their daily work on the farms. The
5000 was not paid only for the ton
or so of beef represented in the animal,
but pays for long term Of years dur
ing which time this animal was brought
to the perfection it represents. The
large sum is pay for generations of
careful and scientific breeding Of HOl-
stein animals, and as the breeding con-
hnues, the champion stock will bring
more and more high prices. Excellence
in any department of the work on the
farm will be paid for. Breeding for
excellence is not limited to -Holstein
cattle, but all other strains, Of horses,
sheep, hogs; of grains, corn and pota-
toes. In purely agricultural terri
tory, the aim should ever be to keep
the standard of type and quality, as
