Columbia for forty years. "If anyone
wants to know how to do the old
time dances l can teach them still.
There is many a grandmother in Col

Dance" he says.
Daddy" Venable, as he is best
known, taught his dancing classes in
old Stone Hall, which was located on
the second floor over what is now
Harrels Tailoring Shop and the Furt-
ney Electric Company. He used to
teach from fifty to a hundred young
Columbians every year.
But if he were teaching now he
wouldn't teach the modern dances.
Anyone can stand up and walk
around the floor, but it took true
grace to dance the old time dances
he said. incidentally, it
was decided at the recent convention
of dancing instructors to go back to
the old style dancing class where
good breeding, bows, and courtesies
were taught"

he is usually able to crafty this lik-

The other day Professor Noyes said

examination:

OATS BEST CROP
Statistics Show Advantages
Over Corn Growing.
On Comparatively Cheap Land In
Western Canada Farmers Get Rec
ord YieIds--cost Per Acre Much
Less Than Corn.

How much more does it cost to
grow an acre of corn than to grow an
acre of oats? To get a proper COM
parison it is necessary to take an H.
lustration from q farm on which both
crops are grown successfully. An ex-
ample has Just been brought to the
writer's attention of the comparative
cost of growing corn and oats on a
Minnesota farm. 1t is furnished by
Albert Inner, a well-known farmer in
Cottonwood county, Mimi, in an ar
ticle which appeared in the Cotton
wood Citizen.
Mr.. Inner says: II had curiosity
10 know how much it would cost to
raise an acre of oats and corn. To
find out kept account, during The
year, of the time required and the
cash expended to grow the above men
. toned crops" His figures show that
1t cost him S31 40 to grow an acre of
corn and $1e.13 1-3 to grow an acre Of
oats, or difference of $1,000 an acre
In favor of oats.
Provided the respective crop yields
are not altogether out of proportion to
the cost of growing the crop, this
seems to be a good argument in favor
of growing oats. But to grow oats
successfully it is not necessary to use
$3.50 or 5000 land. In western Canada
some of the best oat-growing land in
the world can be bought for about $50
an acre. On this land good yields and
q high quality of grain is obtainable.
Fifty to sixty bushels to the acre
in properly prepared land is a fair
average yield for oats in western Can
ada in a normal season but yields OF
mp to 100 bushels, and even more, to
the acre Lave been frequent in good
years. The quality of oats grown in
western Canada is attested by the fact
that at all the international exhibit
lions for many years past oats grown
In western Canada have been award
ed the leading prizes. There is on
record oats grown in western Canada
that have weighed as much as 48
pounds to the measured busfcel, and
the dominion grain inspector is author
ity for the statement that 85 per cent
of the oats examined by him in west
ern Canada weigh more than AZ
pounds to the measured bushel. The
standard weight for bushel Of oats

Samples of these oats weighing up

PROMISES AID TO WRAAGEL

BY EDWARD w. PlcKARD.

The United States will employ ''all
available means" to safeguard the in
dependence and territorial integrity of
Poland, and will not recognize the
soviet government of Russia.
The French government has recog-
nized the Wrangel government of
southern Russia and will give it Mill
tary aid against the bolsheviki; and
the French representatives in London
have been instructed to break off all
relations with Krassin and Kameneff.
the soviet trade commissioners there.
The British government, though
somewhat dismayed by the American
and French announcements and the
apparent break with France, still
hopes and believes peace can be ne
gotiated between Russia and Poland.
The Russians, persisting in their re-
fusal to permit mediation by any third
party. sent a delegation to Minsk to
meet the Poles, and continued their
circling movement designed to cap
ture Warsaw.
The Poles sent representatives to
Minsk to talk armistice, and, having
withdrawn in good order from their
advanced positions, established two
lines of defense before Warsaw and
prepared for an extensive counter
stroke.
In the lineup of the powers, Italy
stands with Great Britain, and France
counts on the support of the United
States. Germany maintains an osten-
sible neutrality while hoping for the
crushing of Poland, believing the
Polish adventure was instigated and
by France.
Such is the summary of conditions,
on the day of writing, In the biggest
of the wars that are still going on.

President Wilson's statement of
Americas position was made 70 Italy.
In it he suggested that the conflict
might be ended by the withdrawal of
all Russian forces from Poland and
the withdrawal of all allied troops
from photographic Russia, together
with assurances by the allied and as
ISOLATED powers that Russia will not
be dismembered. He urged that any
dealings with the soviet regime be con-
fined within ''the most narrow bOun-
daries TO which the discussion of an
armistice can be confined" and scored
the soviet government as that of
tyrannical and dishonorable minority
whose assurances and guarantees are
practically worthless. In asking that
the true boundaries of Russia be re-
spected, the note specified that those
boundaries should not include Fin
land, ethnic Poland or such territory
as may by agreement form a part of
the Armenian state. Just what the
president meant by "all available

ter, did not ask for armed assistance,
