Winter Beauty
Snow fakes so quietly falling
Thru the long hours Of night
Furnish the earth with a cover,
Beautiful mantle Of white;
Eluttering down from the heavens,
Covering earth here below,
Pure as the heart Of the lily,
Untarnished, unsmirched is the snow.
Covers the world with mantle,
Unsightly spots now are lost,
Covers the lakes and the rivers,
Winter bound, they, by Jack Frost;
The trees standing guard are like
sentries,
White-coated, white capped and tall,
Dressed in the trappings Of winter, &
Most beautiful season Of ALL
Snow birds rejoicesin the beauty,
Flutter in glee here again,
Children with glad shouts Of laughter,
isssBthg thrills to the stern hearts OF
men
Somehow the hard tasks seem lighter,
The burdens Of life tinged with mirth,
When the pure fakes Tof. sAoWy softly
failing, 's' -
Bring beauty and Joy to the earth.

BOYS THAT PUT BUSINESSES
BEFORE PLEASURE.

The discontented turnout the world
can, if they will (Which they won't) !,
find a moral Of exceeding great value
in the story of Johnny and Billy
Turner, exhibitors Of hogs at the In
ternational Livestock Exposition in
Chicago. The Turner's are kids, 3 one
16 and the other 10 years old Four
years ago their father gave them $25
with which to buy a bicycle. They con
cluded to buy a SOW. They became swine
breeders. They have now at Dewitt,
Iowa, herd Of 600 which Is valued
at SOS, 900. No doubt they have a
bicycle apiece, if they have not pre-
ferred an automobile Of limousine type,
which they can well afford. The point
is that they have succeeded thru put
ting business before pleasure. They
seized the oppor tunity to do something
when twas presented to them. They
are living testimo nials to the fact that
the road to riches Is not thru privilege.
Yet they are In q fair way to become
objects Of the hatred Of the discomfort
ed whose unhappiness proceeds from
their own map itude more than from
anything There IS chance II

work elligently and assiduously.

Montrose s; Butler 4.

The Butler base ball team was tax.
en- into camp by Montrose Sunday by
the above score. The boys went back
to their old habit of having one bad
inning, when as a rule their oppon-
ents get enough runs to win. This
time it was the third when the visit
ors made five runs, none of which
were earned. Orear pitched good
enough ball, but his error in the third
when he made a wild throw to Sec
ond to catch runner, had much to
do with the loss of the game. How
ever he had a big day with the bat,
getting hits. Luscomb caught an
other good game and it looks as
though Manager Smith has at last
found a catcher that can deliver the
goods. Walter Williams, who was
out of town, was missed at second
base. Whitsett, of Jacksonville, did
very we'll there, but he can't swing
bat with Walter. The Montrose
boys are about the fastest fielding
team that has been seen here this
year, but they had no license to win
and the boys are wanting return
game when they will try and cut out
the bad inning and reverse the Sun
day score.

The Loafer Hen Must Go.
R. A. Langenbacher.

So far seven poultry culling DEM
onstrations have been held in Bates
county. Every one of these has been
we'll attended. We hope to hold from
seventy to eighty such meetings be-
fore the culling season closes. Every
farmer should endeavor to be at one
of these demonstrations and learn to
Gull the home flock. It will mean d
saving of several dollars to every
farm within the next few months.
Every Gull hen sold before winter
will effect a saving Of at least one
dollar. Forty per cent Of our average
flocks are of that sort. Why waste
labor and feed on these hens! They
are fat and in good condition for, the
market at this season of the year. If
yon feed them ali winter they. will eat
up the profits of your prodcers and
very likely weigh less than they will
this fall. 81
Come out to these culling MEETINGS
and see the. work done. We will have
bulletins there for free distribution
and will try to give you some real
valuable information. This service is
free to every farmer of Bates Coun-
ty
