Man Proposes

This, expression, enlarged upon by
the words, "but God disposes," is
found in the written works of poets
and philosophers, from the beginning
of recorded time. 1t is recognition
of the existence of an overseeing
Providence.
Confidence in the protection of that
all-pervading power makes life bear
able. 1t causese men to labor with
hope, and to love with anticipation OF
future joys. 1t erects a happy goal
for which one may strive.
To strive is not to be unhappy
There is joy in effort. To cease to
struggle is to die or, to sink in hope
less lethargy.
There are those who think they do
not believe in God. And yet their
whole thought is on what they say
they do not believe. The non-believer
is such because his mind is not able
to grasp a greater mind, his under
standing, which is finite, cannot com
prehend the Infinite. Because he
cannot measure the vast distances by
a foot rule he questions distances.
Belief in God gives calm. The mind
being at home, is at rest. 1t contem-
plates the future without apprehen-
sion. 1t knows that all will be we'll

that the evils Of life are merely
passing nothings, and that it is good
to be near the Infinite "E'en though
it be a cross that raiseth me-"
If any one thinks that faith is
irksome, that it does not elevate and
glorify the believer, let him note
that all the great men and women,
with few exceptions that have ever
lived, have believed that there is
God who had to do with the destin.es

Poultrymen of the extension divi-

Hay Grading Is
Ancient Practice

The announcement by the fedora
government of grades for prairie
alfalfa and johnson grass hay, In
addition to those of timothy and
clover hays, beginning with the cur
rent fiscal years suggests the fact
that hay-grading is by no means a
new thing, according to F. II. Stein
metz of the Minnesota Agricultural
Experiment Station Staff, who has
been in charge Of Minnesota labora-
tory tests to aid in establishing the
new grades.
The grading of hay, says Mf
>Steinmetz, began almost as soon
as men bought and sold hay.
Every livestock feeder had notion
of the kind of forage he needed.
The seller was forced to provide the
desired kind of the desired quality,
before a bargain could be closed. AS
cities grew up, forage more and
more was consumed at points dis
tant from those Of production. The
distant consumers came to establish
standards which sellers had to meet.
The trouble was that such stand
ards were almost wholly local.
There was relatively little uniform
ity among the standard of different
parts of the country. Buyers and
sellers came to realize that there was
need for grades covering the whole
country.
Out of this feeling came the eff
fort of the Bureau Of Agricultural
Economics, United States Depart
ment of Agriculture, to establish
general grades of the different
kinds of hay, based on laboratory
tests and wide study of fields and
markets.

Savings In Banks
Jump Fifteen Millions

The people of Minnesota have $751;
100000 more in savings accounts in
state banks now than they had a
year ago, marking an unusual streng-
thening of bank conditions and o.
individual savings, A. j. Veigel, state
superintendent Of banks reports, bas-
ing his figures on response to the
June 80 bank call.
He emphasized the banks positions
as a result of the years gain, which
showed total deposits jumping to
S444, 693,884, gain of $25,O00,O0O
much of it made in the last three
months, in a period when deposits
usually decline. Cash reserves like
wise improved.
Two direct items of savings, the
savings accounts and certificates of
deposit, reached 1920, 808,531 on June
80. Mr.. Veigel said, showing a gam
of 100000.

will do everything in his power to
put Minnesota lover the top" before
the end Of the Endowment campaign
in this state two weeks hence. With
this in view Commander Linde'l has
called upon every American Legion
agency in the state to bend every eff
fort in raising funds to complete the
states quota of $250,000.
Eyes of American Legionnaires in
Minnesota are turned on the Twin
Cities and Duluth where the fund cam
paign has>just started in earnest. Il
these three cities reach their quotas,
the state will be "over the top" on the
drive. Minneapolis by now has APP
proximately one-third of its fund
raised while ST. Paul has just COM
pleted organization work incidental
to the campaign there. Legion posts
of St. Paul will raise $4,000 of the
city's quota, while the Greater ST.
Paul Committee of the St. Paul
Association has pledged itself to raise
the additional $4,000 of the city's
funds. Duluth has already passed
the halfway mark and is expected to
report its full quota raised within a
short time.
w. T. Barbre, Northwest director
of the Endowment campaign, says
when all posts that have agreed to
finish in the campaign in the country
districts have reported, Minnesota,
outside of the three, big cities, will
have completed it's work 100 per
cent. "Only one state with quota
of 100000 OR more can show such
a record" Mr.. Barbre says. While
the drive efforts are being concen-
trated in the three big centers of
population. State Headquarters has
set about to collect the drag ends of
the work in the country. Many small
er cities that have already raised their
quotas are writing in for additional
subscription cards, fact, it is point
ed out, that augers well for the
campaign here.

Modern Age Not So Bad,

"You can say all you like about the
modern women's dress as immodesI,
but only today l saw a mother and
her daughter walk down the main
street. One the mother, wore dress
that was fully six inches below her
ankles, and she laboriously walked
along, scraping up the dust and to-
bacco juice as she swept down the
way. Her daughter was gowned IN
one of those modern dresses that end
about neat four inches below the
knee she walked along with grace and
ease that exemplifies health itself.
Yes, they may say the modern attire
of women is immoral, but the cut OF
it makes me think of the word clean
illness, and cleanliness is next to
Godliness," thunders A. B. Loomer.

Bruised Livestock
Tax On Farmer

Bruises inflicted on livestock in
loading, in transit, and in loading,
costs the farmers of the country
millions of dollars every year, ac-
cording to a statement made by DR.
w. j. Embree of the Western
Weight Inspection Bureau, Chi
cago, in a recent talk before the
veterinarians of Minnesota at Uni
versity Farm, St. Paul.
In one year the losses on swine
ran to $3,OOO,00O, and the losses on
beef to 100000 pounds. Bruised
parts have to be cut from the
dressed carcasses.
So large are the losses that pack
ers are waging a campaign to en-
courage more careful handling-the
avoidance of the use of the prod,
the whip, or the club in driving,
loading of livestock.
The meeting of the Minnesota
veterinarians at University Farm
was the largest in the history of the
organization, IT'S being registered.

AS To Signing Notes.

There has been a large amount OF
litigation at the present term OF the
Otter Tail county court over the
collection of notes which people have
signed but do not want to pay, says
the Fergus Falls Tribune. The prac-
tice of signing note for the benefit
of other people has been going on
since the dawn of the world and for
more than so years here in Otter Tail
county. There have been a lot OF
tragedies as result of this practice,
and the earnings of many hard
working man have been taken to pay
a note which he signed as an ac-
comodation for someone else. When
one signs a note, he should realize
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1925-08-12

that he may have to pay it, and the
time to think about whether he wants
to pay it or not is when he is signing
it. There have been many fearful
instances in this county, but it seems
useless to warn against the practice.
Jurors are sometimes kind, but it is
not safe to rely upon the kindness
of jurors all the time. When some
one asks you to sign a note as an
accommodation, it is a good idea to
think twice before YOU do it.
