union, for the beginning of their la
bors. They used my yard as rem
devious, and could easily watch their
movements. There was no suggestion
Of labor before the whistle blew. They
made no preparations to begin. They
lay down beside their work as con-
tentedly as dog curls up behind the
kitchen stove to go to sleep after a
hearty meal. suppose, in fact, that
it would have been a heinous breach
of regulation If they had done other
wise. They stretched comfortably in
the grass smoking and talking AMI
matedly.
When the signal for the fatal hour Of
work sounded they arose slowly, DELHI
erately, reluctantly and dragged them
selves to their tasks, as If they were
getting ready for their own hanging.
There was no enthusiasm, no evidence
of joy in the toll they were taking up,
no suggestion of eagerness or liking
for their work If the boss" came
along to give directions to one Of them,
the others seized upon this as an OPP
portunity for little breathing spell,
stopped their work and gathered round,
to hear the gossip or the call down.
Often during the morning would look
out to see them leaning heavily on the
pick or the shovel or standing aimless-
ly gazing into space. The work Jagged
as 1t always does when one watches
the clock. 1t was only when the whis-
tie blew at twelve or at six o'clock, and
they dropped their tools that they
sprinted up and showed any speed.
My father used TO tell of man who
was regularly looking for work and
hoping all the time that he would not
find 1t. There are many like him,
am convinced, yet such men can hardly
hope to make much advancement or to
get much pleasure out Of life.
One ought to like his work; he
should go to it with pleasure and leave
it with regret. The man who cannot
bring himself to like work Is due for a
great many disagreeable moments II
he lives long. for the majority of US
will have good deal Of 1t to do be-
fore we go to our eternal rest, and
possibly afterward.
The most unhappy people know are
the people who have no work to do
who spend their time as they like, and
grumble because there is no variety In
life. Work seems to me one Of the
greatest blessings, that our Creator de
vised for us. When, for his disobedi
ence, man was condemned to earn his
bread by the sweat Of his brow,
have always figured out that If he were
not actually found mot guilty. he, a
least. received the minimum penalty.

Most Opportune Time to
Cut Sow Beans for Hay

"Soy beans may be cut for hay at
any time between the full bloom stage.
which usually comes between July 10
and August Is, and the stage when the
leaves begin to turn yellow, some four
to six weeks later" says G. ]. Will
lard. of the Ohio experiment station.
"Yield, ease of curing and quality of
hay viii mainly determine the time to
cut. The largest yield obtainable at
one cutting is secured by cutting when
about one-fourth of the leaves are vel
low. In one typical test at the uni
versity, these were the results:
"When cut July %, at full bloom,
yield was 300 pounds an acre; cut
August s, with pods well formed, 800
pounds an acre; cut August 20, with
beans half grown, $500 pounds an
acre; cut September IL, with one
fourth of the leaves yellow, 7,4OO

Indiana War Memorial
Turned Ouer to Legion

With representatives of every state
present, the first unit of Indiana's $1O,-
100000 war memorial project was re-
Gently dedicated and turned over to
the American Legion as national
headquarters building.
The ceremonies attendant on the
dedication were simple and impress
sive. A parade which included the
massed colors of each state depart
ment of the Legion began the program.
National Commander James A. Drain
led the way with Gov. Ed Jackson of
Indiana. The national executive COM
mittee from each department followed.
In brief addresses, Governor Jackson
proffered the building and Commander
Drain accepted. The program was
radiocast.
The building is four-story affair
with Grecian simplicity of line and
declared to be one of the most beauti-
full structures in Indiana. 1t has been
thoroughly furnished In keeping with
the tone. Each department including
those abroad have special desks with
the state seal. Special permission was
obtained from the French government
for the use Of the French seal on the
desk to be used by the committeeman
from France.

Marketing Poultry and
Eggs Is Important Job

"The time has come when serious
thought is being given not only to the
production of poultry and eggs, but
also to the marketing of these prod
ucts." So declares the poultry and
egg marketing department Of the Hi
nois Agricultural association, f. A.
Gougler, director.
1.-THE states of Iowa, Illinois, In
diana, Ohio, Missouri. Pennsylvania,
Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan and
Kansas together sell about 85,OO0,OOO
dozen eggs each year. This amounts
to 2S,OOO,OOO cases or 10000 carloads.
And If we add to the value Of the eggs
sold from these states each year, the
value of the poultry sold, we have no
less than 1926, $40, 472."
Marketing of this large quantity Is
as important a problem as producing
1t, says the association. Both produc-
ers and distributors OF eggs and poul-
try products are concerned with the
best method of moving this produce
from producer to consumer. so that
the spread between producer and con-
sumner is reduced to a minimum.
"It is estimated that the annual
loss in the United States In marketing
our egg crop ranges from $4O,OOO,OOO
to $5O,OOO.OOO and those responsible
for this loss are everyone who has
anything to do with eggs from the
farms to the consumers. The trouble
is due largely to the fact that eggs are
not bought on the basis Of grade di-
rect from the producers"

LIKING WORK
By THOMAS ARkLE CLARK


MY neighbor Warner down the
Ava street is always busy. During
the spring and summer | can see him
at almost any hour of the day potter
ing about the yard. His lawn is al
ways carefully moved. His borders
are in order The little garden back
of his house is carefully cared for.
When snow falls during the late au-
tumn or winter he is the first man on
the street to have his walk cleaned.
He is not satisfied with just pushing
q reluctant shovel down the middle
Of the path to the street. He cleans
the whole expanse neatly and pains
takingly, and extends his labors to the
walk along the front of his lot. Some
times when he feels more than Ordi-
narily full Of pep" he does the work
of the widow next door. / have al
ways felt that when a man living on
q corner lot shOvels the snow from
the walk all about his premises, 1t Is
a pretty good indication that he likes
work. Work is for Warner an avoca-
ton hobby. delight. He enjoys
1t. His greatest grief is the thought
that he may some day not be able to
work. In some ways he is unique.
''Why do you work so constantly p

Select Right Paint
for Each Farm Job
Best Way to Preserve Build
ings and Implements.

fPrepared by the United States Department.
of Agricultural
Painting improves appearance, Dut
the chief purpose of painting on the
farm is to preserve buildings fences,
and Implements from the effects OF
the weather Interior painting Is usual
" done to make the home more attrac-
tive, but it also serves a useful pur-
nose In making walls and ceilings more
sanitary and dark rooms lighter. PANT
ing at regular intervals, says the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture, is the cheapest way to keep
buildings and implements in good con-
dition.
A knowledge of the different kinds
of paint and their particular adapta-
bilfty is great advantage to the farm
err who wishes to do his own work.
The department has published Farm
ers' Bulletin 1852 for the express pur'
pose of helping the farmer to select the
right paint for the particular JOB at
hand. It gives directions for mixing
paint for preparing surfaces, and for
applying the paint. Full directions Tor
making and applying several kinds OF
whitewash are included also.
Painting should not be put of too
long. If wood has begun to rot or iron
has begun to rust, the rotting and rust
ing will continue after the paint has
been applied. Moreover, the longer
painting is delayed, the more difficult
and expensive 1t becomes.

Public Baths for Dogs

In Munich. Bavaria, public baths for
dogs have been established and are
being maintained by the local authori-
ties out of public taxes. This was
thought necessary, due to the great
number of unclean CANNES that were
noticeable on the streets since the war.
The baths are open from 9:30 a. m. to
Z p. m. and they are widely used by
pet owners.

SMALL TOWN TALK

Right now a valiant fight is being put up
by Minneapolis policeman to teach pedestrians
when NOT to step off the curb-into stream OF
traffic When policemen lifts his voice and calls
to said pedestrians some of the hurrying walk
ers have to go back and start all over again.
Some Of the awfully good looking ladies just
smiled sweetly and go right on AS for US, we
had to go back, gosh ding!
We didn't have ghost of a chance to get
down to the State Fair and to view the prize
pigs and to visit the Minnesota Editors in their
own little headquarters" on the ground. But we
did have an opportunity to see the fine publica'
ton which Frank Day and his committee pub
lished in recognition of the fact that if there
were no newspapers there would be no State
Fair. Nobody ever told us that that is why this
edition Of the Minnesota Editor is published each
fair time but we are sure in our own mind that
that's why. It was creditable thing for the
boys headed by Frank to have done. Practically
every worthwhile member of the country press
wrote special article for the paper, and their
were any number of articles which count for real
literature Take it all and all the little paper is
most encouraging evidence that Minnesota
country newspaper people are finding ther:
selves-and are no longer ashamed to let the
world hear from them.

The highway department already is housed

SCHOOL DAYS.

r OLKS, it is time for all Of US grown-ups,
r. especially those of us who are parents of
school children, to realize that the success
or failure of the present school year in Redwood
Falls lies pretty much with us. We are, as the
editor has worked it out by diferential calculus,
responsible for at least seventy-six and nine
tenths per cent of it. Under Minnesota's excel
lent laws of education excellent schools have
been provided throughout the county. Excellent
instructors have been employed, the various
superintendent and boards Of education giving
the time and thought of months to the proper
selection of well-qualifed teachers. Buildings
at least up to standard; in many instances
they even set high standard of their own, and
the books and equipment are all that is neccs-
sary and compatible to good work for the mex.
nine months. The stage is all set. But unless
the army Of school children come onto that stage
backed by the knowledge that their parents ex-
pect results and are working with every teacher
and every school official the whole thing counts
for less than nothing. The pupils body must
have health founded right home conditions
and kept constant by proper food and proper
hours of sleep. They must, if they are to get
the most out of it, have their young minds kept
