Reflections Of q

IF WISHES were horses, every nor
L NAL oma would Immediately
wish" they were automobiles. You
can't cheat a woman out of her divine
right to be disconnected"
When Solomon walled, Feed me
with apples and stay me with fagons,
for 1 am sick of love" he was either
just recovering from a grande passion,
or trying to escape a 'petting party"
Many a girl tempts a man &c make
love to her, just in order to brighten
up his conversation, when she feels
herself about to yawn.
There are only two vital causes of
the failure of any marriage: one is the
husband; the other is the wife.
To make an ideal lover, take the dar-
ing of a soldier, the imagination of a
poet. and the tenderness of a mother
but to make an ideal husband, you will
have to substitute caution for daring,
generosity for Imagination, and then
add an income and a mOtorcar.
Love fits a woman's heart like a
glove; but it fits a mans heart like his
clothes. always loosely enough for him
to turn around in and look for-an-
other love.
Marriage is the end of a girls trou-
bles, trials and problems but it isn't

covers WHICH end.

for her money, he soon begins to re.

structed in the county this year. Mr..
Toavs, who has twelve children in
his family, has confined his farm
operations chiefly to wheat and the
cereal crops on a large scale. He
has in from six to eight hundred
acres a year and his boys are a great
help to him in his farm operations,
so he does not have to depend upon
outside labor. In addition to the
cereal crops he has a good acreage of
corn, a big garden, a herd of beef
cattle, a number of milk cows and
a number of hogs. All of his boys
at one time or another have been
members of the boys club work.
One of the boys this year has 40
pigs as the result of a gilt won in
the hog club a year ago last winter.
Der of the grimm alfalfa club and
ground in ideal condition, which
start will produce seed enough next
year to give the community a good
supply of registered seed. Mr.. Toavs,
as well as the other farmers men
toned, is very progressive in his
farm operations and always adopts
the best approved methods when it
has been demonstrated that they are
the best. The progressive feature
of the Toavs' home next year will
be a large modern farm house, his
entire acreage into approved seed,
a large grove of trees about his
house, a good herd of registered
brood sows and an acre of registered
Grimm alfalfa.
Many Others Successful.
There are a large number of other
farmers in the county who have been
Just as successful as these farmers
who are constructing new homes, and
it is evident that these farmers have
adapted themselves to the type of
farming that is necessary to make a
success in Roosevelt county, which
methods were not known a number
years ago, and it is believed that
when those facts become known that
there will be a large demand for the
type of land which we have here

phatic yet progressive cities must keep adding improve

it has, it's defects likely to lead people to avoid it.
New and residents hate to move into place
that seems to have habit of stagnation.
But if town tries to improve its plant from year
