GUESSING G.
OF STOCK LIKELY
TO BE

Guessing livestock weights may be
a popular sport, but it's mighty poor
business, especially for the fellow
who doesn't keep in practice. Not
long ago a skilled hog buyer stopped
at the home of a farmer ard bought
mis- herd of hogs, 100 head in all.
They agreed on the price with little
trouble and since there vas no scale
on the farm they estimated the
weight. The farmer had sold his hogs
at a good price and he was happy.
He never knew that he had guessed
mis- hogs 10 pounds too light and that
The better judgment of the buyer had
cost him something like $4,000.
Selling livestock and grain by
guess costs many farmers hundreds
Of dollars every year, according to
the research department of the Ma
tional Association of Farm Equip
ment Manufacturers. Pigs and

realize and the buyer who sees live
stock weighed every day takes ad-
vantage of that fact. Selling grain
by wagon box measure often costs
the producer money, especially if it
S of high quality and weighs well.
A pitless farm scale with a capac-
ty of 5000 pounds has recently been
developed which is especially adapt
ID for use on small farms where the
mount of weighing does not seem to
Justify the expense of a higher priced
pit scale. The new scale, as its name
indicates, requires no foundatiin pit
and a easily be moved from place
o place. 1t will weigh a wagon load
If grain or several head of livestock.

SWALLOWED BY BOY

Paul, sixteen-year-old son of At

of a very peculiar accident Sunday
evening, when he swallowed a TWEEN

ir his mouth. The quarter lodged in
the boys aesophagus and it was nee
essary to take him to Minot, where a

the end of the world. "Math, 2S, %.
Sunday afternoon we conducted
service at the Lone Tree school house.
Quite a number Of our people turned
out to the service. and we surely are
pleased to see the interest manifested.
During the summer months the
,hurch work is rather slack, due to
the closing down Of the public schools
ard that 50 many of our people take
a needed vacation. Now, that our
people have returned to their respect
i've duties we look forward to a very
pleasant and prosperous year in the
Lords service. We also wish to bid
cur teachers and instructors a hearty
welcome to our services and other
activities of our congregations.
The human family is ~religously
inclined. We see the religious spirit
expressed both among jews and
gentiles. And in a special sense do
VIC .ay that our beloved country is a
christian nation. Some time ago
missionaries were sent out to a
great number of people, with the
following answers: 81 per cent be-
Eieve in God, 85 per cent said they
believed in the Bible as the inspired
work and word of God; 10 per cent
said they attended church regularly;
80 per cent said they did not want
their families to grow up in church
less communities; and 72 per cent
sent their children to Sunday school.
In closing may | add: "Do not send
your children to Sunday school and
church service, but bring them. The
church is for the whole family.
Your friend.

Enough Herrings for All

That great sea bird, the gannet or
soian goose, requires a large amour
OF fish. There are not many breeding
huunts In these islands, but the few
that we have are wonderful bird for
t~resses, for the birds congregate In
their thousands, occupying every avail
able ledge on the giant cliffs they
choose for their home. The gannets Of
Great Britain alone consume not less
than 60,0O0,0W behring's a year, yet
there appears to be plenty In the sea
for them and us. Ii every gannet In the
world were exterminated, | doubt II
1t would make the slightest difference
to the amount Of behring's captured
