Wet Wires Crossed.
(Bnrlington &c Press.

The Rutland Herald has yet TO learn
that it is dangerous to stand in water
and touch an electric current. In dis
cussing the result of the election in Yer
mont il got its wires crossed in an anus
ing way In trying to explain why the
vets made 80 poor a showing in the rec
ord district as compared with the first
the Herald says:
THE fact is, of course. that not one
voter in 10 knew Mr.. Wilson was OPP
paS"d to the Volstead act. He made a
modest announcement that was very gen
orally disregarded and not generally pub
lished."
Then forgetting what ii had just said
about people not knowing about the
Democratic candidate it makes this sig
niticant statement about a community
way up in the northeast part of the
state far away from Wilson's home
town:
Congressman Porter H. Dale failed
to carry his home town of Brighton.
Wilson, the Democratic candidate, get
ting over 300 votes to Dale's 200 odd. =
The Herald's statements previous to
the contest would have led the outside
observer to conclude that all Vermont
was in an uproar against national pro-
hibition; that the voters were ready to
cut and slash Congressman Dale, who
voted for prohibition both as to the
amendment to the constitution and the
NOlSIeau enforcement act One WOQiu

fair to assume that they would rush to
the polls in perfect dreves to vote
against the man who imposed this hard

A New Tank Mixer.

Stirring the contents of watts, tanks
ETC., with vertical instead of the usual
horizontal swirling motion, is possible by
the use of a turbine mixer having a spe-
cial multiblade rotor, says an illustrated
article in the October Popular Mechan-
les Magazine. The rotor extends to the
bottom Of the tank and its blades are
FACED at 45-degree angle so that, in
motion, they tend to draw the liquid, or
Semiliquid. contents downward at the
center. Centrifugal force then throws
the product being mixed outward against
the sides of the vat, whence it is driven
upward against battle boards, thence in
toward the center again, when a com
plete revolution viii have been affected.
Kindness does not consist in gifts. but
in gentleness and generosity of spirit.
Men may give their money which comes
from the purse, but withhold their kind
ness which comes from the heart.

mother of the owners Of the farm.
Joined their sons and daughter at the
farm and brought some cows with them
from Wisconsin. Since that time the
herd has grown each yea until it has
become 4 major enterprise on the farm.
Each year, however, a very consider
able acreage of wheat is planted. sup
plemented by corn, oats and winter rye.
As much ground as possible is carefu ly
summer fallowed for a crop for the
following year.
Have Garden Each Year
In addition to the cows. a splendid
flock of chickens is to be found on the
place. Perhaps for the little attention
they require and the small expense they
incur there are few other agencies on
the farm which return a better profit
than do chickens. Chickens on the
Nelson farm not only supply the fam
lily with n very appreciate amount of
food for the table. but also add con
siderable to the farm income.
Like virtually al of the successful
farmers in north central Montana Wis
tied by representatives OF the state col
lege extension service in conducting n
dry land farm survey, an excellent
garden is a regular and important part
OF tue NefSOu DrollefS luFH. IOta-
toes. corn. onions, lettuce. radishes,
moons, cabbage. tomatoes and a vari-
ETY. of other garden produce are raised
successfully for home use.
In the cold months an occasional hog
or steer is butchered and a portion of
the meat is preserved for summer use.
Thus living expenses are cut to a
minimum. although the table is always
beautifully and attractive'y laid.
Dry land farming is a comparatively
novel experience for ]. W. Nelson. who
is assisting his sons. For years he
was n deep sea engineer and spent
many years on the waters of the At
lantic. Like a true sailor he has a
remarkable ability with tools and many
novel conyeniences about the place give
evidence of his handiwork.
Nelson brothers have no elaborate
dairy farm. They have a comfortable
barn for their cows in winter and their
cows show the results of good care,
but the system is not n of intensive
dairying. Rather it is a system which
combines cows with grain farming and
when the latter is not profitable the
cows are depended on TO furnish the
major income for the farm.

the fore a group of
sterling men and women in
northern Montana who have
courageously stood their
ground and have steadfastly
refused to acknowledge defeat

Not all are following the

in cows and some in straight.

many of these successful

The couple were visitors at the Great
Falls tourist camp enroute to Boston,
