FACTS
ASSOCIATIONS ARE BIG HELP
Evidence Of Popularity of Plan With
Small Dsiywen Is Shown IN
Mississippi County.

From Attala county, Mississippi,
new evidence Of tie popularity of the
buu association among farmers with
small dairy herds has come 90 The at
tentlon Of the dairy division. United
States department of agriculture,
through tire announcement thar a CO.
operative bull association has been or
ranized in that community
DairyIug is almost a new venture
with many Of the farmers in AJtala
county. Perhaps il is this very new
ness and tbe consequent lack of preju-
dice I'm favor Of old methods Of doing
things tha, has made il 50 cnmpara-
lively easy 10 introduce this modern
method Of improving cattle Many Of
the dairymen in the community have
shown themselves to be progressive,
but one man especially stands out as
n leader in this respect. We will call
him Green. He is a good old South
erner who is said to have farmed foE
some sixty years.
When the agricultural extension
agents from the federal and state de
parments came into the community to
organize a bull association Green was
the man they called on first. They
knew from experience that he would
be very likely to see the advantage Of
such an association to the community
aud would be a strong factor in swing
ing into line other farmers in the
neighhorhood. As was expected Green
at once saw the advantages that the
proposition offered, and the very next
day he started in on the preliminary
work of organizing bull association
"block"
A few days later the extension men
heard over the telephone that block
was practically assured. Later, how
ever. Green telephoned that some Of
the prospective members were dropping
out, as they remembered a disastrous
experience Of some years before, when
they had paid a high price for a worth
less stallion. This objection was met,
however, with the assurance that the
federal and state agents were indors-
ing this project and would see that no
one was swindled.
Later on Green informed the coun-
ty agent that a block of 40 COWS had
been formed and could be signed up if
the agent and specialist would come
out to the schoolhouSe and clear up
certain doubtful points. This was
done. and six farmers signed up 43
cows, so that S430 was then available
for buying a bull.
Things were moving along in such a
promising manner that the farmers
who had refused to Join decided that

mo, sir" said Green, who had been
elected director Of the block. "You had
your chance and wouldn't come in. Or
ganize block Of your own. We don't
want you in ours"
With the arrival Of the excellent
Jersey bull oxford Mon plaisir 1898,
which had been secured for the use Of
block members, the farmers who had
at first refused to join the association
were doubly anxious to get in, but
were again told that they would have
10 organize q block Of their own. Thus
It appears that the doubling ones, who
are found in every community, had to
pay the penalty Of hesitating. While
they may still get into the associa-
ton and enjoy its benefits by organlz-
ing a new block, they have lost a
great deal Of time

TEACH TIE CHILDREN THRIFT

Thrift Is now being taught to the
children OF the Omaha public schools
in a practical way. and it should be
done the same in St. Joseph. 1t is
true that the children of the St JOS
eph schools are being given some
lessons in thrift. but not on the scale
Of Omaha-which should be done.
In the Omaha schools each Tues
day is known as cash" day. when the
children are asked to bring to the
school such savings as they have
made during the past week. The
teachers assist the pupils to make
out deposit slips and the money is
then taken to a bank and placed
there to grow as time passes.
There are many new ideas In the
schools of this period not advanced
| decade or less ago, but none of
more importance than that which
teaches children to save. From these
small nest-egGs who can tell but in
time many thousands may be on de-
posit to the credit OF more than one

| OF banking that from the small de-
positors, which are the backbone Of

the children right and they will go
right, nine times out OF ten.
Thrift among the school children
Of st. Joseph can not be too highly
praised and it should be taught and
encouraged by the authorities Of the
| St Joseph schools.

TIE TRAGEDY OF RUSSIA


The well known English author, II.

"trip OF personal inspection in Russia
and he has returned with a tight
clamp on his mouth---in fact speaking

| refugee colony for men OF science,
arts and tho learned professions--the
! "intelliscntsia."
This announcement givcs special
/ interest TO an article on the lot OF the

/ whom the turn Of affairs in Russia
after the second revolution sent flee

/ He was for time editor Of an anti
| uplshcvist paper in Paris. but is now
in the Uuitod States lie mourns the
/ poIsccuuon, the degradation, the des-
, ttuuon, the slavery OF those OF his
. class sin left in Russia. He says the
/ tragedy Of tho Russian intelligentsia
/ is the most pathetic and poignant in
human history--a statement no doubt
too exclusive but easily condoned in
a personal sufferer from the awful
horror that shocks every impartial
beholder.
-he Russian intcIligontsla, who
hailed the first revolution as a tri-
umph ~ humane ideals, were the first
to protest against the principles and
the methods Of the second. that Of
LruIHe and Trotzky. They rcmon-
