Newport Woman Who
Died Recently
(By Sadie McCaffery)

This memorial sketch of the
life of Clarabelle Kimball Wheeler

! friends, because thru delays it was

of the vested choir of that church.
She married James Wheeler of
this city and they welcomed a
small baby daughter, Shirley
Belle, in the early morning of
June 1.
But in q few hours Mrs. Vince
Ter was taken seriously i'll with
commissions, and although a va
liant fight was made to save her
life, and everything in human skill
was tried, she continued to grow
worse and. passed away early
Thursday morning, June 2.
Funeral services were held Sat
urdav afternoon, June 4th, in the
East Main Baptist church. Rev.

ment, in her husbands LOT. in the

Life has been likened to a shelf
on which has been arranged many
books, each volume representing
the history of an individual.
Some are ponderous volumes,
full of many pages and experiences
while others comprise but a few
leaves, the brief history of short
life lived here on earth.
Some books are divided into
many parts or epochs.
Gods providences are past find
ing out, but our faith assures US
that some day we shall fully UNI
derstand, and we feel that Clara
bellies contribution to the Book
Shelf of LIE ,altho COMPRISING a
small volume, a life-story briefly
told, yet to those who knew her
best and loved her, the short chap
ters were full to overlooking of
true, worthwhile and friendly acts,
which will constitute for her be-
reaved friends many dear, sweet
and precious memories of a life,
tho short. yet well-lived.
God had more beautiful thoughts
for Clarabelle than mere length of
days, and while in sadness we
write Finis to Part / of Clara
bellies earthly volume we feel con-
fident that in Part 2, Shirley
Bellies volume, it may be the will
and plan OF God that Clarabelle's
ambitions may be more fully real
lied and expressed in the child for
whom the mother was willing to
die that the daughter might have
the privilege of living.

NO SUCCESS FOR GUESSERS

Many dairymen still resort to the
guessing method of feeding their
herds, selecting their breeding stock
and selling their surplus. This guess
ing is hazardous, says Thomas NJ.
Olson, Instructor in dairy husbandry
at State college, The whole opera
ton is a guess, and the success or
failure is as accurate, a fifty-ffty
chance.
Before a COW can be fed what she
needs and no more, and that is the
only sane and economical way of
feeding, the feeder must know how
many pounds of milk she produced
and how much butter fat was in the
milk.
1t should not provoke profound think
ing TO see the iallacy of feeding a COW
which produces so pounds of 4 per
cent milk the same amount and kind
of grain as a COW which produces
20 pounds of 8 per cen milk, yet that
is being done among too many dairy
men. Dairymen should burn these
sentences indelibly on their minds.
Milk is produced from the feed and
water a cow costumes. If the feed is
inadequate the milk flow will be like
wise. Know your cows and if you
have the dairy spirit lurking in your
makeup, you will follow the path that
leads to success. No understanding
heart would withhold feed from a COW
if he knew by feeding it the milk
flow would be increased ~three-fold.
Neither would the true dairyman give
feed to a COW which he knew was eat
ing the profits by his other COWS.
One of the greatest inroads on the
profit Of the dairyman, is the boarder
COW. She not only does not produce
milk at a profit but literally eats the
profit made by the profitable cows.
Up-to-date the only sure means of de-
tecting the bOarder-cow, is weighing
and testing her milk. The dairyman
who guesses at the production of his
cows is no nearer the facts than the
man who guesses on any other propo-
sition. Success can never come to
the guesser, for he has neglected to
abide by the fundamentals of dairy
ing, the necessity Of knowing the in
diVidual COWS.

n KINDERGARTEN
BY Carrie 5. Newman

BY Carrie 5. Newman
In response to the invitation brought
home by my small son, | set out one
bright spring morning 10 visit his
kindergarten.
| found the children gathered in sew
eral groups around their tables all
busily at work. One group was ar
ranging a flower garden with colored
beads and proudly called our attention
TO their red tulips, yellow daffodils and
purple pansies. Another group was
building wonderful tunnels, bridges
and towers. Still another was folding
boats Of many sizes and all seemed
intensely interested in their work.
But presently the material was put
neatly back on the shelves, and join
ing hands, the children formed a large
circle in the center of the room.
Let's play SNAIL" suggested a
small boy. Very well, keep tight
hold of snails or it will not be a real
snail she'll" replied the Kindergarten.
Round and round marched the chill
dren, in time with the music, until
they formed a number of concentIic
circles, then in a manner truly marve-
lous to the initiated, they unwoGnd
themselves and were back in one large
circle.
One little girl wanted to play it
again but the others decided that they
preferred to play Farmer" Several
children were therefore transformed
into plows while others were the
horses and drivers, and spring plow-
ing become the order of the day!
The next game chosen was the
Pigeon House" Father, mother and
baby pigeons slept soundly in the
house made by a number of other chill
dren until the doors were opened and
they were directed to fly far, far
away, till setting of sun" Then they
returned to the protection of home
and told with their soft cooling of all
they had seen and done.
A merry dance followed this, in
which little feet with more or less
dexterity kept time with the music
and little bodies bowed gracefully.
AS l left, the children had drawn
their chairs close around the kinder
g~artner and were listening to the old,
yet ever new, adventures of Silver
locks and the Three Bears.
On my way home, / passed a group
of small boys at play and l paused to
watch them. One of them had a toy
pistol, another a stout stick. The
others were burglars and sneak thieves
whom they were rounding up. "If
there is any truth in the saying of a
wise man, the child tends to become
what he initiates" l unused, surely
it is money well spent to provide
kindergartens in which the play life
of the young citizens can be directed
and guided"
If the children of kindergarten age
who are being deprived of the educa-
tional advantages to which they are
entitled were to march in a double
line at intervals Of three feet, at the
rate Of 25 miles a day, it would re-
quire A days for them to pass a given
point.
Help now to secure more kinder
gartens for this host of little people.
For advice and information write to

monty followed is to give a child two
years old or over an egg every other
day, and about the same amount e
ounces) of meat, fish, OIL poultry on
intervening days. If for any reason
these are omitted from the child's
diet, special care must be taken to see
that other suitable foods take their
place, preferably an extra amount Of
milk.
Broiling and roasting are the best
methods of preparing tender meat for
a child. Tough meat should be stewed
or prepared in a ~fireless cooker or
first chopped and then broiled. 1t is
important TO teach children to chew
meat and other foods properly.

EX-service men of South Dakota
have received during the past year
$557,200 as aid in purchasing farms in
the state. Of this amount 1921, 500 has
been taken from the land settlement
fund and the remainder was provided
by the rural credits loan department,
which works in cooperation with the
land settlement board. Loans have
been made in t~hirty-two out of the six
ty-four counties of the state. There
are no restrictions upon the location
of the land upon which the applicant
for aid desires to settle. The only
limitation is as to the amount of fl,
nancial assistance that can be given
by the state. The land settlement act
is not intended to aid speculative in
vestments and therefore, one OF the
requirements is that the applicant shall
live upon and develop the land which
he desires to purchase. OF the $50 ex-
service men who have applied for as
~sistance since the beginning of the
operation of the act, 121 failed to re-
ceive aid, because they were unable
to live on the land. The land board
recently has purchased 1000 acres of
land in TODD county, which will be
available for purchase by the veterans.
When loans are made they are pay
able under the amortization plan and
run for thirty years. Payments may
be made annually.
A national poll of the members of
the American Legion may be ordered
by national headquarters in the near

iative committee in Washington that

1--WE o MARKET

With the exception of the cattle
trade, live stock markets of the past
week have chartered 4 very irregular
course Hogs opened on a strong
basis, Monday being high day for the
week. On subsequent days prices went
downward rapidly, until an average of
about $3.50 at the close was nearly
$1.25 under Monday. Lamb trade
reached the weeks crest on Wednes-
day when s11.75 was paid for two loads
of prime fed lambs. Since then the
market has been lower and packer top
at the close was $11.00, with best ewes
at $4.25. Receipts for New Years
week total around 800 cattle, $500
calves, $4,000 hogs and 400 sheep,
compared with 1900 cattle, $500
calves, 32,1O0 hogs and 400 sheep dur
ing Christmas week.
The cattle market of the week has
responded mildly to the light market
ings. Beef steers at the close are
selling on a strong basis compared
with a week ago, with the best in the
weeks trade being some 1~267-poInd
averages displaying good quality and
breeding, but lacking high grade fin
ish that sold at $500. A fair showing
of sales has been noted from $500
S.75, but most of the offerings con-
tinue on the common order, selling
largely at s5.75@7.5O. Butcher cows
and heifers maintained a uniformly
strong tone, showing around 25c to
soc advance for the week. Sales rang
ing from s6.5O@7.5O have not been
uncommon, with bulk of the supply
going at $4.00Q6.00. Gamers and
cutters are strong to a quarter higher
for the week, selling largely at the
close from $3.00@4.00. Prices of veal
calves have scared during the week,
with closing top $1.00, or $1.75 above
a week ago. Volume Of stocker and
feeder business is at the lowest ebb
Of the year, and trade Is decidedly dull.
A few transactions of good stockers
and feeders are being made at $500

fried or cooked in a small amount of
fat, should not be given to young chill
dren, say nutrition specialists of the
United States department of agricul-
ture. One reason for this is that fried
meats are apt to be overlooked and
tough, at least on the outside, and so
are likely not to be properly chewed.
Another reason is that the fat used
in frying, as well as that which fries
out of the meat, is likely to be
scorched and changed in composition.
When this is the case, it is almost
certain to be harmful.

you may still be young in feeling, full of life,
your whole being trimming over with vim
and energy.
But be sure the iron you take 10 organic iron
-Nuxated Iron-and not metallic iron which
people usually take. Organic iron-Nuxated
Iron-is like the iron in your blood and like
the iron in spinach, lentils and apples, while
metallic iron is iron just as it m from the
actioF of strong acids on small pieces OF iron
filings and is therefore an entirely different
thing from Nuxated Iron. EuXated Iron rep
resents organic iron in such a highly c9ncen-
trated form that one dose IS estimated TO be
approximately equivalent Gin organic iron
content to eating one-hGlf quart of spinach,
one quart of green vegetables or half dozen
baked apples. 1t is like taking extracts OF beer
instead of eating pounds of meat.
Over 1000 600 people annually are using
Nnxated Iron. 1t quickly helps make rich

LITTLE ROCG BUSINESS MEN
 ENJOY EFFICIENCY LECTURE

About 300 business men of Little Rock witnessed the illustrated lecture Getting the Most Out of Retailing J which was given at the Hotel Marion in that city the other night. The lec- ture is put on in a very elaborate manner by the National Cash Regis ter Company of Dayton, Ohio, and in detail it explains many advantages local merchants can use in their busi- ness and shows very vividly many mistakes they make.
 The Arkansas Gazette says of the lecture: "1n brief address before the exhibition of the picture, Mr. Yunkes made a plea for better CO., operation in all kinds of business. Competition, he said, lis proving that store methods and store service must be improved to meet the demands of the buying public, and at the same time make reasonable profit Ex- perience has shown that one of the best means of getting the most out of retailing is to study and profit by the methods that have enabled other merchants to get ahead"
 Prescott business men and others will have an opportunity to hear this efficiency lecture and see that effic- iency picture on Tuesday evening, June 7th, at 8 o'clock at Scott Hall, which was secured through the Cham Der of Commerce. The lecture and pictures are free and a good attend ance of business men and clerks is expected.
