Never Smoke in Barn or Garage.
Ordinary friction matches should be
kept safe in receptacles, away from
children, and never carried loose.
Smoking in barns and garages never
should be permitted. Fire marshals
of western states report greater fire
losses in grain and straw the
past season from carelessly thrown
matches, engine sparks, and automo-
bile and tractor backfre than ever be-
fore.
Buildings may be made safer by
seeing that the chimneys are without
cracks and free of SCOT, which may
take fire and scatter sparks on dry
roofs. Flues which may become hot
should be covered with asbestos and

metal under every stove.
Out Of all the losses by lightning
not one was on a building protected

ORGANIZE BULL ASSOCIATION
Success Depends Great Deal on Care
In FormIng-County Agent Can
Give Assistance.

Success in the operation Of a coop
erative bull association depends a
great deal on the care than Is used
in its organization. To begin with,
those interested should obtain as much
information as possible regarding the
plan of operation and should consult
with the county agricultural agent.
He may be able to give valuable in
formation from experience, or at least
will know where 1t can be obtained,
and he can help greatly in starting the
organization. If a county agent Is
not available, write to the state agri-
cultural college or to the United States
Department Of Agriculture at Wash
ington, d. c., either Of which will be
glad to give advice and assistance. 1t
is advisable, If possible, to visit some
nearby bull association in order to
study the methods Of operating, for
the more information there Is avail
able the better will be the prospects
for a well-organized and successful
association. CIV

Old Nose Taylor Undoubtedly Had

Got the Dinner

"At the end of a Georgia negro
meeting" says an Atlanta man, at
vas decided to take up a collection for
charity. The chairman passed the hat
himself. He dropped dime in it for
4 nest-egg. Every right hand encoun-
.ered that hat, and yet, at the end,
when the chairman turned the hat over
and shook it, not so much as his own
contribution dropped out.
"'Fo' de lands sake" he cried. 4

"All the rows Of dusky faces looked
puzzled. Who was the lucky man?

DIFFERENT, OFF THE STAGE
Master Crock Had to Seek Ordinary
Mortal to Perform What Would
Seem Simple Task.

Darcham Drake, the wOrld-fam0us
film villain, had had a very busy day
at the studios.
In the performance Of part nineteen
of "The Master Crook" he had deity
cut open with his electric saw five
formidable safes, mastered swiftly the
mysterious combinations of nine more,
and with a nonchalant air had picked
the lock of his prison cell.
And now, his days work finished,
he brcathed n sigh of relief as he
alighted from his car and reached the
door of his fiat.
It was locked.
AnXiously he searched every pocket
of his clothes for the latchkey, but
failed to unearth it.
Here's a fix" he grOaned.
After another vain search the
Master Crook walked around to the
nearest locksmiths shop, flung a $40
bill onto the counter ami begged the
mshaven man in charge to come and
open his blessed" door!

Inspect Premises Frequently.
The Department of Agriculture ad
vises a frequent looking over Of the
premises to see that the buildings are
in the best practicable shape to pre-
vent and resist fire, that inflammable
rubbish is cleared away, and that
habits of safety be instilled in the
handling Of matches, lamps, stoves and
kerosene and gasoline.
Gasoline has come to play an impor-
tant part in farm life that special care
should be taken to see that it is not
stored in infammable buildings and is
never opened in the presence of I'M
covered flame. If lanterns must be
used in barns, they should be kept in
good condition, set or hung in a safe
place, and never filled or lighted In
the barn. Kerosene lamps should be
examined to see that the burners are
in good condition and should never be
left where they may be upset. Kero-
sene and gasoline receptacles should
be kept apart, and should be so differ
ent as to avoid possibility of a mis-
take.
Numerous disastrous fires are caused
by thrashing machines, both by scat
tering sparks and embers and by dust
explosions in the separators. All smoke
stacks should have spark arresters, and
the ground around the boiler should
be kept clear and wet down, If neces-
sary. Grain-dust explosions are large
ly preventable. The department has
made exhaustive studies of the sub
ject and is prepared to recommend
adequate safeguards.
Serious losses are caused by sparks
from locomotives, which ignite dry

ATTORNEY SURELY A WONDER
But Old Darky's Admiration Must
Have Been Embarrassing Under
the circumstances.

In Alabama they tell of a prosecut-

successful with his cases that he be-
,ame beth the terror of evil-dOers in
he vicinity and the admiration of all,
especially the .dusky portion of the
population.
Upon his withdrawal from Office he
vas at once sought out by those
:harged with crime. Much to his dis
gust the first two cases that he de-
ended resulted in the conviction of
his clients. An aged darby, named Joe
Clinton, who had watched his prosecu-
ions with wonder and who looked
With equal Amusement now he conduct

lfter. his second defeat.

CALLED MSLAND OF DESPAIR"
Small Spot in the Southern Sea That
Deserved the Significant Title
Bestowed on 1t.

Norfolk island in the South Pacific,
was, 100 years ago, prison for the
very worst type of British offenders
against the laws, and it became known
as the Island of Despair" Isolated
there, many thousands of miles from
their crimes, men were driven to mad
ness or to some deed that ended their
lives.
A settlement called Kingston was
formed in 1885, and this is the cap
ital OF the island today. 1t was care
fully laid out with streets, culverts,
bridges and a pier, and all these
are in excellent preservation, show
ing the thorough quality of the work
done by the cOnvicts.
The actual prisons are rapidly fall
ing into ruin, all that remains being
huge walls, three feet thick, of cells
in which prisoners were confined. The
prison square, containing churches
kitchens and buildings for various
trades carried on by the convicts, was
enclosed by a high stone wall, still
intact in most places, but crumbling
ON the ocean side. Norfolk island
was abandoned as q penal settlement
In 1855.
The island is a British possession,
under the jurisdiction Of the COM
mOnwealth Of Australia. Fine build
ings are located along the roads, built
a century ago by the convlcts, and
still in good repair.

Two Hours More
to Work
By VINCENT C. PERRY


g. 1921. by Mcclure Newspaper Syndicate
Three o'clock! Two hours more to
work; The thermometer was doing
away. up in the eighties, despite the
fact. that the sun was hiding behind
the clouds, and had been hiding all
day. The sultry heat seemed sultriest
right there in the oflice-and LenOre
. had quite made up her mind she was
ready to die She hated office work
The feeling had come over her for the
first time that afternoon. How she
had stood the toll of the city all those
years was more than she could tell
and up until then she had said she
loved it.
1.-TWO hours more to work !' ! The
exclamation came from IGNORES lips
with a grOan. 20,
The girls and men in the office stopped
their work and stared. There was
not one there who could have believed
such an exclamation would come from
her lips if they hadn't heard it.
Lenore-or as she was known to
the staff, Miss Tibetts-saw those
surprised glances, recognized their
meaning, and her heart seemed to
flare up with anger.
That's it," she shrieked for the
first time in her business career, be-
coming excited and raising her voice
nbove it's usual business-like tone
That's it, stare, you ninnies stare.
Don't you think I'm HUMANE" she
cried on. Don't you think this ever
lasting grind, day in and day out,
would get under my skin some day?

as all of you put together hate it."
At that moment the buZzer sounded,
and Miss Tibetts knew she was wanted

often all that is necessary.

mentary rebellion, Lenore grasped her
notebook and bounded, rather than
walked, into the presence of her su-
periOr.
Miss Tibetts, take these letters
please"
LenOre had always prided herself
in the thought that the president could
not give dictation to any of the mere
office help" but this day the thought
seemed to enrage her.
mr.. Toll" she addressed him, in
tone he had never heard her use be-
fore, you'll have to give your letters
to someone eIse-I'm through taking
dictation."
MY dear Miss" the president be-
gan in thunderstruck tone.
ut simply MEANS" Lenore cut in
without waiting to be asked for an
explanation, that Pm leaving your
employ. | am leaving night-today-
this minute. l can't even think of
wasting the two hours that remain Of
this working day in this ungodly
sweatshop. I'm too young a woman
to waste one hour more"
But what can you do in two hOurs?"
the president begged to know lamely.
Calm yourself, my dear, calm"
Calm myself nothing! I've been
calm all my life. I've Gained all my
good times away What can / do in
two hours? you ask--I can do lots Of
things, drown myself, rob a bank, get
married.
Il hope, my young lady, you are not
considering the latter" Mr.. Toll was
really frightened now Anything but
the latter in your frame of mind"
II will get married." Lenore cried
just to be contrary. Everyone here
thinks I am Incapable of getting mar
ried-thlnks ! am too old or too set
in my ways-but I'm not. l can get
married-and inside of two hours at
that-and l will I'll marry the first
man who asks me-"
Lenore stopped to see what effect
her speech had on the man before
her. Then for the first time her eyes
lighted upon a third person. A quietly
dressed, middle-aged man of the
younger type had been sitting through
all this scene unobserved. Lenore
