IMPROVE THE HOME GROUNDS
Attractive Garden Is One Of the First
Requisites Of Worth
While Home.

What Is home without children?
But one might go further and say !:
What is home without a garden and
flowers?"
Prof. William Dallas Campbell
echoes this thought in some of his
most interesting talks on Better
Homes"
A home is rendered more attrac-
tive and interesting when each func-
tional furnishing is in the right place,
of the right size, shape, scale and
color, and consequently because use
full and beautiful, appears to have
grown or happened there. The trees,
shrubs, vines, flowers and other fea-
lures that adorn the garden, the
homes intimate environs, should give
the same suggestion.
The residence, garage, boundary
fences. walls, steps, pergolas and in
deed all construction evident, form a
skeleton, or it might be more appro-
pirate to say, figure in the nude, that
needs to be clothed with befitting
grace and color in living plant forms
that do not hide or smother the archi-
lecture but only serve to reveal and
emphasize its charm.
Plants add further interest through
their change in growth, and their evo-
lutions through the seasons whether
it be leaf, fruit and flower that delight
or bare twig, decorative branch and
trunk that etch silhouettes against
a background of building, water OF
sky. The house may with propriety
express repose, while the plant life
signifies animation, joy, movement and
color, epitomizing all life In cycles OF
birth, growth, fruitage and decay.

Community Spirit.

A healthy city-wide optimism re-
moves the mental hazards from bust
ness A keen realization on the part
of business men that real-cstate de-
velopment must precede city growth
that real-estate investment Is safe ana
profitable; that the surest way to an
mex the stranger permanently to your
population is to sell him home or an
Investment In real estate, all help the
home. Bankers should cooperate
with the business interests, and es-
pecially the real-estate men, In di-

enterprises that would build up and
develop the city instead of permitting
this money to be loaned to large for.

Handy Incinerator.

An incinerator in which to burn
refuse should be in every home, as 1t
lessons the danger of fire and prevents
burning papers from being scattered
by the wind. When 1t is full 1t is car
ried out away from the buildings and
set on fire.
A piece of small mesh chicken wire
about three feet high and ten feet long
will do for the cylinder part, rein
forced by pieces Of heavy wire lashed
to the top and bottom and four pieces
IN and down the sides. Two pieces
three feet square will form the top and
bottom and may be fastened to heavy
wire circles and the bottom fastened
to the cylinder all around. The TOP
one. or lid, can be hinged to one side
and piece of loose wire placed on
the side to fasten it down when the
refuse Is being burned.

"oLD sKEEsIcks" ALL RIGHT
May Be Somewhat Odd In Character,
but Not lnfrequentIy Has Heart
of Pure Gold.

"Old Skeesicks" is what the boys
call him, perhaps because he wears
clothes that are not of the best and
talks sometimes about the duty Of be-
ing careful about spending money un-
necessarily. "Old Skeesicks!" they
whisper when they see him coming,
and 1 sometimes think he hears what
the thoughtless boys and more
thoughtless men say about him. But

Gently coming out Of home where
things are not going very well just
now. Father sick, mother worried to
get things her little folks need to make
them comfortable and bills crowding
hard, now that the winner of the daily
bread is laid up. A bit curious to
know more about "Old Skeesicks'
visit, 1 slipped over after supper and
found them all CHEEKY, no clouds in
sight; and they told me with glad
light in their eyes that the good old
farmer man had left bushel, more
or less, of good things to eat and he
had told them if they needed it he
would let them have money to tide
over the hard spell.
Since then 1 have thought Of some
other things "Old Skeesicks" has
done, and somehow 1 wish no one ever
would speak disrespectfully Of our old
neighbor again. Trips to town after

cause he had rheumatism so he could
scarcely put one foot before the other,
and always so good and kind and
pleasant to meet,
"Old Skeesicks?" Boys, let's never
call him that, and let's be a bit more
careful how we say things about other
folks anyway. We cannot always tell
what is back Of the old clothes and the
rough outside. Under the tattered
waistcoat may beat the truest, kindest
heart ever given a man. If "Old Skee-
stcks" is a mite over careful about the
use Of money, 1t is only that he may do
good with it. He was brought up in
the school of economy. His heart is
all right-Edgar L. Vincent in Farm

METHODIST CHURCH
Sunday school, 10 a. m.
Morning service, IL o'clock.
Epworth League, $3.50 p. m.
Evening service, 1880 p. m.


Easter Sunday was red letter day,
and will be long remembered by those
who attended. Even though the day
proved to be stormy, the crowd that
attended threatened the capacity of the
church.
At the morning service two beauti-
full and appropriate anthems were rem
dered by the choir.
The Easter sermon, delivered by DR..
David E. Kendall, on "The Unseen
and the Immortal" was educational
and inspirational in the highest degree.
Our people were greatly pleased with
the message and went away inspired
to live more for the unseen.
At the close Of the sermon a fine
class of thirteen were received into
the church in full connection, five Of
whom received the sacrament of bab-
tism.
The offerings during the day amount
ed to 1925. The Sunday school collec-
tion was about the largest in its his
tory.
In the evening, at the time of the
regular service, the Easter cantata,
"My Redeemer Lives" was given by
Mrs. Blaine and choir. 1t was unusual
ly fine. The twenty-four voices that
participated had spent long hours Of
careful drilling and did their parts
well. The program was greatly en-
joyed by full house. And thus came
to a close one of the most successful
days for the church for long time.
The special services being conducted
by DR.. David E. Kendall will continue
every night, except Saturday night, un
til April Is. The attendance has beer
unusually good considering the stormy
weather we have had since the meet
ings began. DR.. Kendall is preaching
great sermons, and no one who is in
terested in the better things Of lif,
can afford to miss any Of these ser
vices.

Crow Not a swift Flyer.

The crow is the least rapid of list
of % migratory birds. flying an insig-
nifcant average Of As feet second, or
80 miles an hour. OF course this speed
maintained steadily In an automobile
would mean a very fair rate of prog
ross, defying the speed laws in many
communities. Most birds, however, do
better than the crow. Curlews and
jscksnipes can iy IS and 85 feet a
second, while qualls. prairie chickens
and ruffed grouse can make rs feet.
The dove can reach a speed Of 100
feet second. or 6S miles an hour, al
though its usual rate is less. Red
heads, blue-winged teals, green-winged
teals, Canada geese, and different vari-
eties Of brant can fly over 100 feet
per second. ranging in speed from 6S
to 9S miles an hour, but usually fly
Mt much slower rate.

NLANDAN NEWS
CORN, DAIRY
PRODUCTS TO
BE FEATURED
Directors of Mandan Fair
Plan to Boost Dairying
On The Slope

The directors of the Missouri Slope
Fair which is to be held in this city
on Aug. q, % 90 and 30th have just
announced their intention of making
particular emphasis of corn, dairy
cattle. dairy products, hogs and poul
try in keeping with the movement
for diversification that is now sweep
ing the state. With this end in view
they have sent out an appeal to the
producers of the above products to
come to the Fair and arrange to show
other people on the Missouri Slope
the great strides that are being
made in this respect. :
j. r. Sarvis of the Northern Great
Plains Experimental Station and Geo
Isle, County Agent have been placed
in charge of the Corn show which is
to be the main attraction. Both these
men are now securing the South
western section of the state with a
view to getting the very best corn
exhibits possible. From what they
have already seen and gathered they
feel that they will have corn ex-
hibt that would make an Iowa, ILL
nois or Wisconsin farmer blush with
jealousy The fact that six thousand
additional acres have been sown in
Morton county alone this year gives
added proof of the success of the
Fair
Some wonderful specimens Of live
stock are to be on display this year
also the directors promise. Some of
the biggest livestock breeders in this
state, South Dakota and Montana
have announced their intention of
placing their stock on exhibit at the
fair. In order that the fair may per-
form greater service for the Slope
than it has in the past it has been
arranged to hold auction sales on two
and possibly three days. On Wednes-
day, August 10Th farmers desiring
pure-bred hogs will have an oppor-
tunity to procure hogs from the best
sows in the state. Some prize dairy |
cattle will be sold on Thursday, |
August 3Oth. If there is sufficient |
demand it is possible that poultry |
auction sales will be featured on |
Tuesday, August 2sth although moth
ing definite can be given out regard |
ing that matter as yet.
Other features that will add to the |
enjoyment of the crowds who attend |
this year will be the Daredevil avia-
tors and an aerial circus who do |
everything but fall to the ground
from an aeroplane, race horses that
really race, and to top off everything
a gorgeous fireworks display in the
evening that has anything beat that
has ever been attempted west Of Far
20 and east of Seattle.
