BARBERRY BUSH
. WAR ON IN NORTH
Wheat Growers of Northwest
Urged to Adopt Eradica-
ton Measures.


Minneapolis, Minn-Farm Bureau
declarations in the wheat growing
states of the Northwest are sending
out bulletins warning farmers that
every common barberry bush, is now
spreading the black stem rust which
later will destroy millions Of bushels
Of grain. AS means of checking this
loss growers are being urged to be-
gin eradicating barberry bushes on
their lands without delay.
The federal government will come
to the aid of the 10 Middle Western
states which are waging war on the
barberry bush as the spreader Of
black rust to grain crops, according
to Harrison Fuller, secretary of the
Conference for the Prevention of Grain
Rust, with headquarters in MinneapO-
lis. Mr. Fuller has just returned from
Washington where for the past two
months he has been representing the
conference in urging a congressional
appropriation to help carry on the
work.
Congress has made $25O,OOO avail
able on July 1 for barberry eradica-
tion and $30,75O will be spent in Min
nesota during the ensuing year.

The wee small hours ayant the twall-
Burns.
WHY is it that the dances you
w dance-or once danced-after
stimulating and joyous than the
dances that you dance while the night
is still young?
It may be that it is only after we
have been dancing for some time that
we get really into the swing Of it, or
perhaps we can find the explanation in
the old truism that stolen sweets are
best, and that it is only because we
have a feeling that we are robbing
ourselves Of our sleep that we enjoy
these early morning dances.
The fact is that while the war lasted
our dances were shorter. And some
people went so far as to predict that
we could never go back to the old-time
custom of dancing or allowing our
daughters and sons to dance until 'all
hours" of the morning. But the
armistice had not been signed many
days before dances were lasting long
er and now all the old-time enthus-
\ iasm for dancing till dawn seems to
have been revived. At least such seems
to be the case in many parts Of the
country and in Washington and New
York more than one hostess has
served breakfast to her late dance
guests at about five in the morning
after a dance. And this breakfast, be
it known, consists Of nothing less
hearty than coffee, rolls and sausages.
During war days the dances began
earlier but now the hour has been
set on to. ten o'clock in a good many
cases. This means supper at mid
night or somewhat la,er. OF course
many people feel that they have tar
ried long enough if they linger until
after supper, but the dance enthus-
iasts-the young folk-linger on in the
good old-fashioned way.
Whatever your own taste for lale
hours may be, however, you should al
ways make sure that you are not out
staying your welcome and just because
company Of young persons become
more interested in their dancing as
the hours advance is no reason why
they should impose on the good nature
of hostess who has not planned for
such late breaking up of her party.
In general, it is safe to assume that if
your hostess is expecting her guests
to dance till a very late hour she will
set the hour for the beginning of her
dance as late as nine or ten. If the
hour is earlier, then the guests should
make point of going home earlier.

NEWEST TOWN IN THE STATE
Former Fighters cIearina> $500 Acre
Tract and Will Have Own Farms,

Veteransville, Minn.-The newest
town in the state, has 80 citizens, each
wearing silver service button. It is
the only town of it's kind in the Uni
ted States and was organized by
wounded veterans of the World war.
April 6 veterans at the University
of Minnesota agricultural college who
were taking government training band
ed together to get a permanent ben
eft from the three year course which
they had started.
I'VE knew that we would be out or
our own at the end of three years."
Knute Lothberg, who fought with the
fourth division, said, land we, didn't
want to be farm hands all our lives.
$50 we decided to get a tract of
land, develop it ourselves and have it
for our own at the end of the three
years."
There are 4,5OO acres in the tract"
Mr.. Lothberg said, land there is room
for other buddies, if they want to join
us. The land will be divided into dairy,
stock, poultry and truck farms, rang

| Is what makes the prettiest kind of
man.-Robert Louis Stevenson.
| IF YOU have read kidnapped" you
remember the quotation. 1t was
| spoken by Alan Breck after the boy,
David, had stood for minute terri
fed on the brink of roaring torrent,
| and then, still sick with the fear of
| it, leaped across.
To Alan Brock, the leap meant lit
tie. 1t required no courage for him
| to make it, for he knew very little of
fear. But for the boy, who did the
| thing he feared as he feared DEATH
! it was real act of heroism.
The only real courage consists in
| doing the thing we are afraid to do
| The hulking prizefghter of the John
Sullivan type, who has as much i'm
! agination as a grizzly bear, is not
! brave. He is sure he is going to WIN
! 1t takes no courage to go into a win
ming fight. -
The bully is never brave. In fact
| he is always a coward. Feeling sure
that his superior size will carry him
through, he picks Quarrels as a pleas
ant method of passing his time.
Put this same bully into the ring
with a large hungry tiger, face him
with man who looks as if he en-
joyed shooting DULLES as much as the
| bully enjoys thrashing his physical
Interiors, and all the courage OOZes
out Of the bully.
You will never know whether YOU
are brave or not till you find yourself
in a position where you are afraid to
! do something that ought to be done
| If you do it, you have courage. If
you shrink from it and quit, you have
not.
| Never mistake q physical willing
ness to take chance, to attempt some
dangerous thing for the kind of cour-
age that counts. :
| 1t is not brave but very foolish
man who walks tight = rope over
| Niagara falls. 1t is braSe man, who
not wanting to die. and knowing that
an operation may send him out or
the world, cheerfcllly goes to the
| table, 10 Mke the one cqance that
may mean his continued support of
his~wife or his dependents.
Often the timid school boy, who
i fears to quarrel, and tries his best to
keep his peace with his fellows, gets
the name of coward. But when this
same boy has to fight for what he
thinks is his honor, or to save little
boy from a bully, he becomes AVERY
dangerous fighter.
Real courage is not daunted by pain.
The boy or the man who fights when
he is afraid to, stops being afraid of
anything, pain, or black eye, or
punishment. He fights because he
has courage, and he usually wins.
There is more real courage in this
world than you fancy. 1t is behind
all great achievement. If you have it,
you are fortunate. But don't be sure,
either that you have or that you
haven't it till you have done or re-
fused to do something you were afraid
| to do.

Eishty-SeVcn per cent of the average

EishtySeven per cent of the average
persons education is acquired through
the eyes. An educational expert tells
this to a senate committee, discussing
movie censorship. Until recent years
knowledge could be transmitted to the
brain, through the sense Of sight, only
by reading printed type, travelling or
watching instructive happenings. In
possibilities, the movie Is scores Of
times more powerful than any Of
these. The possibilities so far have
been largely neglected. A sign of
progress is the growing demand that
movies be made instructive as we'll as
entertaining. Moving picture films
will be the states, blackboards and
textbooks Of future schools. Equally
knowledge-g giving for the grown-ups,
watching films during spare time,
learning and enjoying.

the members of the board of educa-
ton and the high school faculty were
seated on the platform with the class
graduating.
Alma Backlund was the salutator-
ian, and delivered an Grafton on
Good Government her enunciation
being perfect and her standard for
good citizenship conservative.
Inez Nelson, who is the class presi-
dent, gave a reading, "Education and
Trade" with a pleasing delivery that
delighted the audience.
Adolph Toftey was the other mem
Der of the class to appear on the
program, being the valedictorian. He
delivered an Grafton on 'Immigra-
tion," and we think he could make
good as a teacher of citizenship on
the Minnesota iron ranges where
such schools are hobby. He talked
against segregation of the different
nationaiities in order to make Ameri-
ca, the great melting pot that she
is, more effective as an assimilation
Of the people from all countries.
But Mr.. Toftey has a natural bent
for drawing, and he expects to study
art. The talent Isl developed to- ar
extent that it will probably help hin:
to scale the heights, either as 6
permanent profession or as a means
to help him while he develops along
some other line of endeavor.
