A Kind Old Man.

The other evening young lawyer
took his bulldog in his machine when
he took his best girl out driving. And
as he drove up to her house out
jumped the dog and clinched with the
dog of the man who lived next door
to her home. Then the fight began
and it lasted long and was hard. But
finally the two dogs were parted and
the girl stood fearfully awaiting the
"balling OUT she was sure her crusty
neighbor would give her best beau.
/. But he did nothing Of the sort. He
kicked his own dog back into the
house and talked affably to the law
yer.
The lawyer, too, was surprised. He
voiced his wonder. "Well, you GER
tainly are good scout" he said.
"Most men would have been mad over
my dog fighting yours"
mo, sir, I'm good neighbour" the
old man said, and the girl began to
feel more kindly toward him than she
had ever felt before. But the next
minute her kind feeling departed. For
he finished: 81 wouldn't do mean
trick to any Of my neighbors like dis
couraging their daughters beaus. I've
got two old maid daughters myself
just a few years older than the two
who live here. /" Indianapolis News.

cited and the boys were shown where
to look for defects. The registered
Herefords were next inspected and
examined. Each boy was then given
the opportunity ta Judge one of the
cattle that Mr.. Droogsma keeps for
dairying purposes. The sheep also
were inspected.
Mrs. Droogsma served the boys a
delicious supper. Every member of
the club, certainly spent most en-
joyable and profitable afternoon.
The Judging team will be at our
county fair and the two boys who
make the highest score in judging the
stock there will be sent to the state
fair. This training in Judging live
stock will be invaluable to boys who
expect to make farming their occu-
patton. The time has come when a
successful farmer must exercise care
in selecting his stock.

MEETING AT ONAMIA.
H. A. Schwantes of the University
Land Clearing Department
Makes address,.

The assembly room in the Onamia
high school was packed to the doors
last evening with men who are inter-
ested in the picric acid project. Fully
100 men were assembled and the ma
jority of them came from the lake
country where there is much land to
be cleared. There were Falso a few
representatives present from the GEN.
trail and southern portions of the
country. --. .t
County Agent Hammargren in
PRODUCED H. A. Schwantes, head of
the land clearing department of the
University of Minnesota, who ad-
dressed the meeting. Mr.. Schwantes
emphasized the point that no attempt
is being made to introduce picric acid
as substitute for dynamite in land
clearing. The picric acid which sells
at market price of 80 to 80 cents per
pound is too expensive to be used for
this purpose when dynamite may be
purchased at % cents per pound. AS
has been explained before, the govern
ment is now offering the farmers a
certain limited quantity of this picric
acid at low cost, because it is war
salvage material. It is estimated the
picric acid that will be shipped into
Onamia, will cost seven cents per
pound plus the freight charges, MAX
ing the total cost approximately nine
cents. It comes in six ounce sticks
and is handled exactly like dynamite
except that number eight cap is
used instead Of number six.
Anyone wishing to secure some of
this picric acid should place his order
with Mr.. Hammargren not later than
August 4. It s expected the shipment
of the acid will arrive in Onamia about
September 1. ...-.

Accident on Scenic Hiphwav


Last. Sunday morning Otto Nor
gard and his father, V. A. Norgaard,
who reside in Bogus Brook, narrowly
escaped being killed or seriously in
jured in an automobile accident on the
Scenic highway. They were driving
in Ford about four miles south of
Milaca when big touring car, driven
by a colored chauffeur, attempted to
pass them. The touring car, which
was being driven at a high speed,
crashed into the Ford before Mr.. N or
gard had time to turn to the side of
the road in response to the signal.
The Ford, which was thrown on it's
top at distance of about two rods,
was total wreck with the top and
windshield broken, the radiator bent
in and the front wheels smashed into
bits. The occupants, however, had an
almost miraculous escape and suffered
no injuries of any Importance.
The owner of the touring car, a
physician from Chicago, has made a
settlement with Mr.. Norgaard to
cover all damages.

ANNUAL COUNTY FAIR.
Premium List, With Generous Awards
Now Being Distributed. by
Secretary Stanley.
Exposition Opens August 81 and
Closes September Sect Ex-
hibits Ready in Time.


County fair will open on August 81
and close on September 8. From a
very small beginning this annual ex-
position has grown until it is now
admitted to be equal to the best in
any county of the state, and as time
progresses twill become of greater
Importance, for the farmers are tax
ing more and more interest in it's de-
velopment and success. Its board of
directors is composed of farmers and
business men, who are elected an
nually, and all Of whom are deeply
interested in the welfare of the county
and are putting forth every effort to
make this years fair surpass by a
large margin any previous exposition
held in Princeton.
The premium list, which is now be-
ing distributed, and which-is also be-
ing printed in this weeks Union, con-
tains generous awards in all depart
ments, which should not fail to at
tract numerous exhibitors and bring
keen competition. The amusement
features will also be of superior quail
ty.
Persons contemplating entering
agricultural exhibits should select
their displays as early as possible dur
ing their spare moments so that they
may obtain the very best specimens
their farms have produced. When Sc
lected at the last moment and in a
haphazard way the best results can
scarcely be expected.

and deprive the treasury of freedom
of action in future transactions.
There is no possibility of reducing
the necessary total to be raised from
internal taxation below $4,000, 200, 900,
United States treasury officials agree.
At a meeting the officials went over
their estimates as to the probable ex-
penditures Of the government as made
in letter sent by Secretary of the
Treasury A. w. Mellon to Representa-
tive Fordney several weeks ago. It
was indicated that with new demands
for additional funds for the shipping
board, the railroads and other pur-
poses, there was no hope of cutting
the amount below $4,0O0,OO0,0OO.

Teaching Them to Save.

Federal officials are being taught
not to spend all they get: Charles
G.. Dawes, new budget director, is the
instructor in this elementary course
in economy-a course which every
successful bushes sman learned in
the primary grades of experience, but
which apparently has never been part
of the training for public office.
Mr.. Dawes in his first venture as
teacher has reported a saving of
$112,512,628 which is to be made out
of appropriations aggrcgoting $4,00O,-
100000 for the current fiscal year. In
other words, he has discovered that
the departments can accomplish all
they are required to do for S., 1877 ,487,-
372, instead of using the entire
amount of the congressional grant.
AS yet the budget director has only
begun to scratch the surface of gov
ernmental extravaganza, and I'M
doubtedly he will find many other
places where extra hundreds of mil
lions may be saved to the taxpayers.
It surely is a very satisfactory be-
ginning to be able to pare off more
than $112,000,000 at one stroke of the
pruning knife.
In his letter to President Harding,
calling attention to these economies,
Mr.. Dawes asserts that department
heads now are duly impressed with
the idea that just because congress
gives them a stipulated amount to
carry on their activities, it is not
necessary to spend all of it. He we'll
says that the amount which should
be expended is not of necessity tsthe
sum appropriated in advance by con-
gress, but the smallest amount on
which the business of the government
can be efficiently administered under
the program outlined by congress"
He adds that the "minds of the
business administration of govern
ment have been diverted from a too
easy reliance on the custom of def
cheney appropriations" This is a
mild way Of saying that department
and bureau heads have been told very
emphatically that they must rely on
what congress gives them, and that
they cannot expect to spend more
and be reimbursed later. In other
words, they must live within their
income. This diversion of minds has
been accomplished, we take it, through
the fundamentally of certain very
definite and energetic suggestions
emanating from Mr.. Dawes personally.
If the new budget director can make
federal officials not only live within
their incomes, but save money out of
their incomes -that is, follow the ex-
ample Of the average citizen he will
have accomplished wonders. And he
seems to be doing it.St. Paul Dis

FARMS FOR SERVICE MEN:
Soldiers May Make Service Entry on
North Platte and ShOshOne
Irrigation Projects.

On September 9, 222 farms will be
opened to homestead entry by soldiers
Of the world war on the North Platte
Irrigation project, Wyoming, and one
week later, September 16, 81 farms
will be thrown open under the Sho-
shone project in the same state.
About $4,000 acres of land are in
cluded in the two openings. For sixty
days no one but soldiers of the world
war will be permitted to make filings
on these farms.
A decade ago the lands now includ-
ed in the North Platte project were
vast range occupied by nomadic herds
of cattle, but national reclamation has
wrought a marvellous change in that
section. The landscape is now dotted
with hundreds Of prosperous farm
homes, and hundred thousand acres
are producing valuable crops of alfal-
ia, sugar beets, corn and potatoes.
Numerous towns have been estab-
lished and railroads have extended
their branches to connect the valley
with the country's great markets.
Dairying has become a profitable in
dustry. More than $4,5OO,OOO worth
of crops were produced on the project
in 1920.
The Shoshone project, in the north
western part of the state, lies in a
region of great scenic beauty, and has
ardelightful and healthful climate and
fertile soil. Like the North Platte
project it has transformed the desert
into thickly populated and highly
productive agricultural section. 1t is
a fine dairy country, has a creamery
and alfalfa meal mill. It is devoted
to general farming.
Soldiers who are interested in the
land are invited to investigate the op-
portunities offered by these openings.
Detailed information concerning the
farms and the method of obtaining
them may be secured by writing to
the Project Manager, U. S. r. S.,
Mitchell, Neb., about the North Platte
project, to the Project Manager, Pow
ell, Wyoming, concerning the Sho-
shone opening, or to the U. S. Recla-
