 Just few words on the farm. We can not expect people to be satisfied on the farm under the present prices. When a farmer sees he is losing all the time he becomes dissatisfied and wants to try something else. The city men and women have us beat on making money. Our young people leave the farm lots of times on ac- count of society being dead in the country. If we had some way of keep ing up society we might be able to keep our young folks; we would like to have Miss Allen to organize Us A Community Club and see if we can't get up some interest for all, and we think the people would not have so much time to study about hard times if they had something else to place their minds on. We read in the Pu- laskian of her organizing many clubs and think her work is grand to the people. 1 think it is the duty of par ents to get up things to interest the young folks and to teach them all kinds of work so they will not mind it if they ever have the responsibility of life placed on them They do not mind all of these things if taught at home. My parents taught me to work and now thank them for doing so,

 He could see the girl standing pressed close to the wall, the light from the broken window on her face, her eyes anxiously watehful of the movements of Macklin, who had turned and was fronting the outer door, one hand resting in readiness on the butt of his "45." Then that opening was shadowed, and the bulky figure of the squaw-man suddenly appeared. His first utterance was full of ill-humor.

After the girls had passed he drew something out of his pocket and told them to halt. The girls ran and he followed them to Mrs. Rec ser's home and when he saw the light at her home he decided that he had better go the other way. He thinks that it looks smart for him to act that way.

The meeting was called to order by the president, Mrs. C. R. Arnold. The little short made-up program was rendered. The song America was sung with zest, even though 1t was a little slow. There were about 35 or 40 present. We had two visitors from Barron school. Come again, friends, and we will enjoy the good time together. Mrs. Jennie W. Erickson was pres ent and her talk was enjoyed very much.
 The next meeting will be held March II, 1921. All who can come and bring some one with you.

 "I sent them into the Bad Lands."
 Macklin laughed.

ARIZONA OFFICIALS SEEKING DECREASE
 IN RATES OV WOOL

D. F. Johnson, chairman, and other representatives of the Arizona cor poration commission are attending a hearing at Los Angeles before Examiner Eddy of the interstate commerce commission relative to the rates on wool. Commissioner Loren Vaughn is also in attendance. as well as D. R. Johnson, rate expert with the commission, who will take the stand. The Arizona Wool Growers association will be represented by its president, Hugh Campbell. and by F. A. Jones, former member of the corporation commission. acting as counsel.
 This hearing is one of a series which are being held in tintermoun- tain territory to consider the pro tests against the application of the railroads for a reduced rate on wool shipped east from Pacific coast ter minals. In view of the fact that the sheep men consider that already they are grossly discriminated against, every effort will be put forth to combat the proposed rate. tion in the rates from Arizona and other intermountain points.
 The present rate on wool from l Kingman to eastern milling points Is $272 Los Angeles gets rate of S1661s, and the railroads are now seeking to cut this to S1.35, in order | they claim, to meet water compe- tition.
 One point of special interest brought out at the hearing at Boise the other day was the statement b, railroad representatives that there Il no water competition on sacked wool; that boat lines were accepting only baled wool. Following thi. came showing that 9S per cen of the wool is shipped east in sacks which means that the railroad themselves admit that there is m water competition on ss per cen
 of the wool.
 J. W. Mount, representing tn
 transcontinental railroads, testifie'
 at the Boise hearing that the pro
 posed S1.35 rate was reasona bi,
 compensatory one, and when aske' if that rate included the cost o service, taxes, uncollectable revenue
 and interest on investment he an swered Yes" In view of this ad
 mission the Arizona representative will seek to know the reason why even smaller rate would not b

SUPPORT OF COTTON . TARIFF IS PLEDGED !. BY OTHER SENATORS

Senator E. F. I4add of North Da- kota has joined the forces of those who will support a. tariff on long staple cotton. In a letter to Andrew Baumert, Jr., Republica nnational committeeman from Arizona, he says:
 'T have your communication with regard to the matter of long staple cotton and tariff on same. The matter is now under consideration by the committee working in the senate on the Fordney house bill. Just what conclusion they will come to l am not certain, but I feel that the American products of the farmers are entitled to IS much protection as ere those of the manufacturer, and unless this is done agriculture is going to continue to decline as it has during the past ten years. I thank you for the information submitted"
 Senator Ladd's letter is in response to one which MT. Baumert sent to all United States senators, setting forth the seriousness of the cotton situa- tion in this state, and with an array | of facts and figures conclusively proving the injustice of placing long | staple cotton on the free list. A large number of replies have been received many of which are very encourag ging.
 T wish to assure you that I am heartily in favor of the proposed leg islation," writes Senator Frank R. Gooding of Idaho. Unless the South and the West are accorded an adequate measure of protection for their basic ndustries-cotton and | livestocll-in my opinion there will be hard times ahead for all of us.' Another disciple of the cause is ! Senator Samuel M. Shortridge oi California. He writes:
 q beg to acknowledge receipt oi your esteemed letter of July 25 and of the very interesting and instructive
 Preliminary Statement concerning 1.-the American Egyptian or Pima long staple cotton industry. I appreciate l the absolute necessity of a tariff or this important Arizona and Ca1ifor- 1 mia industry and shall cooperate il urging adequate tariff protection"
 Senator Morris Sheppard of Texa' writes: T shall be glad to do wha can for a proper tariff on thii article"
 Senator J. W. Harreld of Oklahom, says: T wish to thank you for th information contained in your lette and will say that I. am inclined t favor the suggested tariff (20 pc cent) on this grade of cotton"
 Other senators acknowledge re
 ceipt of the information sent by Nil
 Baumert and the tone of their letter
 indicated that they will give tn matter serious consideration iron , the standpoint of the producer. Unfortunately for the long stapl ! cotton tariff advocates. they will nc be able to count on the active sup s port of Senator George w Nnrri

The Next Instant He Saw Something That for . Moment Made His
 Heart Stop Beating

the four helpless babies. was Mr. Blacksnake.
 With great bounds Peter sprang forward. Mir. BIacksnake heard him coming and drew back a little, missing angrily. He coiled himself up to fight, for he had no intention of giv- ing up such a splendid breakfast as those baby rabbits would make. He could remember when Peter used to fbe afraid of him, and he half sus- pected that he could frighten Peter now. But that was where he was mistaken. Peter was big and strong now and had no fear Of MT. Black snake. Besides, he was fighting for his babies, the dearest babies in the world. Like a flash he leaped over MT. Blacksnake and struck with his powerful hind legs. They hurt MT. Blacksnake. The claws tore his skin and he wriggled all over with pain But he struck back like a flash, only to get a mouthful of hair without hurting Peter in the least
 Back and forth leaped Peter, kick ing with all his might. It was more than MT. Blacksnake could stand When Peter stopped for breath MT Blacksnake dodged under a bramblt bush and started to crawl away al fast as he could. Somehow he didn't have any appetite for baby rabbit. any longer. All he thought abou was getting away before he should receive another of those terrible kicks. Peter followed him clear tt the edge of the Old Briar Patch When he was sure that Mir Black snake had really gone he hurried back to the nursery.
 Its lucky I came back when did, he panted. q forgot all abou the Snake family when I said thi' nursery was perfectly safe.'
