BOOK r EV lie w

There has just come to my
desk book entitled, RED
Rust" by Cornelius James Can
non, from Little Brown and
Company, (Boston).
The scene of this story is
laid on the bleak plains of the
far north, Minnesota, where
sunshine would bring almost
any price by the square yard
during the reign of King Win
ter. Mats Swenson, the son
of a Swedish farmer, though
an unwilling slave to the hard
tasks of the farm, he was alb
sorbed in any reading matter
that came his way. He came by
mere accident on Darwin and
learned of the principle of ma
tural selection. He applied the
principle to wheat, with the
aim of developing a grain that
would withstand all storms and
diseases. He began his expert
ments, and patiently carried
them on, despite his neigh
bors' soothing.
His heart went out to the
harrassed fomily Of Nils Jen-
sen, who was subject to fits
of insanity and rage. He fin
ally died in a drunken stupor,
and Mats married his widow,
Lena. By patient experiments
he developed enough of-his new
wheat to SOW an entire crop.
That year the dreaded blight
of red rust come, but Mats
wheat withstood the rust, and
his dream was fulfilled.
He did not, however, live to
witness his triumph, but sue
cumbed to the effects of an old
hurt. This book is realistic,
but dignity is thrown around
the humble toilers, and we are
made to feel their nobleness,
and to rejoice in their simple
pleasures.

Well Known
Man Killed
BY Train

Rufus Sutherland, of Clinch-
co, passed away at 1890 a. m.
June 20, 1928, after having
Ianguished since the previous
Sunday morning from an in
jury received by being severe
ly bumped by a shifter on the
C. c. & O. railroad.
1t is reported that Mr.. Suth-
erland had engaged in a party
of youngsters at Bob Roses
home, and was returning to
Clinchco by walking down the
railroad track at about 3 am,
carrying with him an improvis-
ed light consisting of bottle
of kerosene with a rag wick.
The injured explained that the
bottle became too hot to carry
and he blew it out and sat
down on the end of a railroad
tie to let it cool, and while thus
sitting lapsed into a doze. 1t
was while he was so sitting
that the shifter passed and
supposedly the stirrup of the
train struck him in the back,
knocking him with terrific
force away from the track,
about forty feet.
According to Sutherland's
story, he finally became con-
scious and crawled on his hands
and knees thru the tunnel just
above Clichco, and by his groan
ing alarmed a neighboring fam
lily who came to him and caus-
ed him to be carried home.
Sutherland had worked in
the mines at Clinchco the night
before the injury and had set
up late on the night of the
same, and thus this accounts
for his doing while sitting on
the track.
Skillful medical attention was
administered to him, but the
internal injuries were too severe
and so the grim reaper could
not be stayed.
His wife and two small child
rem survive him.
Funeral services will be con-
Quoted at Stratton, on Mcclure
river, which is the boyhood
home of the deceased.
