the youngest boy, was charming but

his head was always full of so many

and orderliness seriously perturbed
Aunt Peace, who feared they indicated

Dick was eighteen when the war broke
out. and his father permitted him to
enlist. OF course poor Aunt Peace was
deeply distressed but, having once
fully and frankly expressed her mind,
she maintained discreet silence aft

any and all nations. but 1t was under

strongly as ever.
Then came news that Dick in the
performance of gallant exploit had
been severely wounded. Later, a COM

Suddenly it was observed that there
were pink spots in Aunt Peace's
cheeks and that her eyes were shining

"Auntie," cried one of Dicks Sis

Engineers and Surveyors to Play
Large Part in Reorganization.
limited Press Dispatch.l

United PTeSS DlSpatch.J
st. Paul, February 13.-EngineerS
and surveyors of Minnesota meeting
here today are expected to play a
large part in reorganization of the
states drainage system affecting the
entire northwest. The Tri State
Flood control association of Mime
sofa, North and South Dakota is
particularly interested in the three
day session of the Minnesota En-
gineers and SURVEYORS association
Senator F. L. Cliffs bill for a new
drainage system in Minnesota will be
discussed in the convention. Senator
Cliff proposes to completely organize
the drainage system of the state pro-
vide for a survey and system for
definitely defining basins. The bill
proposes to do away with the present
drainage commission and establish
o new body which will devote its en-
tire time to the drainage problem
Two years ago evidence was pre-
scented to the senate drainage COM
mittee showing that about sixty per
cent of the money spent on drainage
in Minnesota was wasted. Senator
F. Fl. Peterson, Moorhead chairman
of the present drainage committee in
the senate said this condition was
not wholly attributable to the en-
gineers nor to the lawyers behind
the project. He declared however.
that such waste could be eliminated.
A definite effort on the part of
legislators engineers, farmers. manu-
facturers and power and develop
ment managers is now under way to
solve the entire drainage problem.

LIVESTOCK MEN GATHER
LISTEN TO EXCELLENT ADVICE
FROM |. e. POTTER
Co. Operation Is the Keynote of
Senator's Address To
Breeders

A meeting of number of promi-
nent .Shorthorn, Angus and Hereford
breeders was held at Mapleton yester-
day afternoon. Elk Senator l.. f. Potter
of Springfield was present and spoke
on the value of team work and co -op-
Grafton in livestock breeding, stating
that the large number of scrub and
poorly bred animals in the country
offer plenty of field for the extension
of all breeds and that the breeders of
any breed could not afford to waste
their energies in opposing the breed
ers of another breed but that all COM
bined should make war on the scrub.
Mr.. Potter's address was very in
teresting and full of helpful sugges-
tons. He suggested that instead of
forming a Shorthorn Breeders asso-
association should be formed.
This was discussed to some length,
some breeders favoring one plan and
some the other. 1t was finally de-
cided to appoint a committee to get
in touch with two men representing
each breed of livestock in the coun-
ty and obtain their sentiment for a
general association.
Committee Is Named.
For the purpose of carrying out
this plan the following committee was
appointed: c. H. G. Hazel, o. w.
Healy, H. E. Hanson, and NJ. r. Bene-
dict. These men will meet with other
breeders in the near future and dis
cuss the matter. The general senti-
ment is somewhat more in favor of
separate breed associations than of
one general association
The Mapleton High School orches-
ira furnished music for the opening
OF the meeting and two solos were
given by Mr.. Lloyd Morrow. Mrs. H.
{. Hotaling gave a short talk in
recognition of Lincoln's birthday.
