True Friends.

For ages. trees have served man.
They have given him food, shade, shell
ter, fuel, farm implements, weapons
and beautiful surroundings. Soldiers
of wars past have adopted them for
memorials; others may do so and fit
tingly, for no monument made by man
is so beautiful or so expressive Of per-
feet service.
Tree memorials to Virginia, Mimi,
men who died in service will be plant
ed along the Virginia Eveleth road by
Virginia legionaires. The Fairmont
high school campus, now bare and I'M
slightly, will be beautified by the plant
ing of trees as living memorial to the
city's war dead, according to plans of
the Fairmont Legion auxiliary. At
Waconia, the legion post is procuring
from the state forestry department
200 black walnut trees to line the roads
entering the town, dedication to take
place on Memorial day.
Sergeant Joyce Kilmer was killed in
action in 1918. Before his death he
wrote these immortal lines: ~ think
that shall never see poem as lovely
as tree; tree whose hungry m >uth
is pressed against the earth's sweet
flowing breast; a tree that looks at
God all day and lifts her leafy arms to
pray; a tree that may in summer wear
a nest of robins in her hair; upon
whose bosom snow has lain; which in
timately lives with rain. Poems are
made by fools like me, but only God
can make tree"

How About Nebuchadnezzar?

Few authentic cases can be found of

Surgeons aunt, who died the other
day in her 103rd year. But have a
quaint old book of general informa-
tion," writes a correspondent, con-
tanning some remarkable cases which
l should like to believe. The book was
once my fathers and as boy I gave
it the gravest credit.
What boy, indeed, would not be tax
en- in by the fine detail, the grave his
torical note of this Thomas Parr,
a laboring man Of Shropshire, was
brought to London by the Earl of
Arundel in 1885 and considered the
wonder of his time, being then in his
l53rd year and in perfect health; but
the journey and change of air and diet
killed him November Is the same
year."
Then there was "Henry Jenkins of
Yorkshire, died in 1910, and was buried
in Bolton churchyard December 6 in
that year, aged 1859 years." But, adds
our correspondent, Thomas Parr and
Henry Jenkins are mere children COM
pared with Johannes de Temporibus,
who died in 1914, having lived 361
years, or Numas de Cugna, who died
at Bengal in 1866, aged $50. Fifty
three names are given, and the baby
of this astonishing family died at the
age of 121. The dates range from
1856 to 1851.

Join the Gopher Gang Now.


During the week ending April Ia
Minnesota added SGT new members to
it's total for 1922, bringing the record
up to 24,O31. In the same week Iowa
.nosed out Ohio and passed from fifth
to fourth place. The twelve leading
legion departments in the total mem
bership race on April IA were: Penn
sylvania, New York, Illinois, Iowa,
Ohio, Minnesota, Massachusetts,, Mis-
souri,, Wisconsin, California, Indiana
and Michigan.
To belong to the legion is more than
just "joining." It is sticking togeth-
er" through thick and thin in the real
legion spirit Of comradeship and mu-
tual helpfulness. During the last
years scores Of attorneys, doctors and
Minnesota legionaires of every trade
and profession have come to the aid
of comrades not in a position to pay
for their services. They have done
so times without number, in accord
ance with the legion constitution,
which reads: "To consecrate and
sanctify our comradeship by our de-
votion to mutual helpfulness."

IS years. There is no entrance fee.
The boys are classified, assigned to
companies and trained in squad for
nation, with drills, hikes and other

To help the high school students to

same time 80 dozen fresh eggs were
shipped to the disabled boys in the
twin city hospitals for Easter.

INTER COUNTY LIVE
STOCK SHOW NOTES

We will again have the County
Herds this year. This was one of the
features of the Show last year and it
made very interesting contest.
County Agent Knott of st. Croix
County and County Agent Seyforth
of Pierce County are both working on
this exhibit. 1t is fortunate for US
that both the counties have agents, as
they are great deal of value to the
Show. {,
Entries are beginning to come in.
However, we desire to have the ex-
hibitors send in the entries just as
soon as possible. A premium book
will be published before the show, and
it is very necessary to get the entries
early.
The American Guernsey Cattle
Club of Peterboro, Vermont, has
again made arrangements to send the
association ribbons for the prize Win
ners in the Guernsey classes. Many
will remember the beautiful ribbons
that were presented to the association
last year. An effort is being made
to get ribbons from the other asso-
Citations.
There will be hog show this year
if there is enough interest on the part
of the hog breeders. This Stock Show
comes at an unfavorable time for
hogs, and there has not been great
deal of interest in it. However, the
association will arrange for hog
show if the breeders desire it. All
those who expect to show hogs,
please send word to the association
| at once.
The horse show this year promises
to be better than last. Without doubt
the horse show last year was the best
we have had. Walter Glass is again
in charge of this department.
Fitting Cattle for Show
A large portion of the work of fit
ting cattle may be accomplished by
careful and proper feeding, and nc
amount of extra work in polishing
and handling will overcome the de-
fects brought out by improper feed
| ing.

the indications of good quality.
"A satisfactory ration may be made
by using clover. or alfalfa hay, corn
silage and grain ration made up of
equal parts of corn meal, oats, bran,
and oil meal. If easily obtained, some
molasses is very helpful to get good
bloom on the animal. Oil meal in the
ration serves to make the hide soft
and velvety, also tones up the entire
system because of its laxative nature
Corn and oats are good fattening
feeds and perhaps most easily procur-
able of all concentrates.
In feeding an animal, whether it
be calf or a mature cow, care must
be used not to overfeed, as on animal
once overfed is very difficult to get
