A BRAVE HEART

It is indeed 8 rare thing for a mother to decline to make a plea for leniency toward a son ensnared in the dragnet of justice.
 Such a boy, 19 years old, was mo good" mother said; and her voice had the ring of finality. She knew; she had raised him, given him reasonable care and instruction. and was through with the lad. It doubtless was evident to her that he would continue on the road to ruin; better let the law at- tempt to reform him than try the im- possible herself. Thus, if the reform school really reforms. it will have one more chance. We hope it will succeed.
 Yet how different is this attitude of the mother to the usual paternal skort when youth gets in trouble" Court attaches have their hearts steeled for the usual mother. ly plea that if the younsster is given 'one more chance" all may be we'll; that his experience 50 far may be well-needed lesson-just the kind tA tuv~s hA rA ~t ness; that Johnnie had always been "a Sood boy" in his formative years and all his troubles must have start Cd when he came into contact with evil companions-the latter usually net yet in tho tolls, for some reason Kiplins touched off the idea
 If I were hanged on the
 highest hill,
 Mother o'Mine
 T know whose love would
 follow me still,
 Mother oMine."
 But in New Britain the mother put reason above love that did no geed. Not in anger, but in despera- tien she admitted to the court that her love was not reciprocated with character. The poet. after all, took to the roetical outlook, to the fantasy Of dreams. to that beautiful constellation of undying love we like 10 believe is one of natures incon- testable gifts. The New Britain mother. a paragon of prosy practi- cality. sought the truth, found it. and based her action upon it. She had suffered all the pangs of mother forced to see her offspring 70 into devious paths. her mind became adamant. The boy needed the discipline of the law. perhaps she ruminated; and 90 it was, tha, when the wise judge and the lawyer, and the functionaries expected te hear the "usuar' fervid pleas of a heart-broken mother. they instead heard the promptngs of a brave heart who would have it over with as the law suggested.

SPRINGFIELD HOSPITAL
BUYS OTTO LEHNE FARM

The highest price ever paid for a
small farm in the vicinity of Spring
field was paid to Otto Lehne for his
3-acre farm adjoining the st. Johns
Hospital and Old Folks Home by the
Hospital Association recently, the
consideration being Sic, 900, or $444.-
A per acre. This place is located
partly in the city, adjoining Riverside
ball park, and partly in Burnstown
and contains a fair set of buildings.
For some time the Lutheran church
conference which sponsors the Hospi-
tai and Old Folks Home, has been ac-
cumulating a farm fund for the pur-
pose of acquiring land to be used in
connection with these institutions and
this purchase is the result of this
plan. The land will be worked and
stocked with cattle and hogs and will
provide meats, milk and other pro-
duce for the two institutions. The
addition to the property will provide
plenty of ground for future expan-
sion and in time more buildings may
be erected and both institutions en-
laryed to meet the growing needs.
Mr.. and Mrs. Lehne have bought
a home at Redwood Falls, where their
daughter resides, and are moving
there soon.-Springfeld Advance

FAKE EYE DOCTORS SWINDLE
FARMERS, ESCAPE WITH $257

Two men posing as eye specialists
obtained 1857 from q farmer near
Waconia, and fled toward Minneapolis
when a Waconia banker tried to
thwart their plans.
Sheriff Frank Trende of Carver
county is hunting for the men.
At liza. M, Wednesday of last
week, the two men, wearing brown
suits, drove up to the Nelson broth
ers farm in small coupe.
The brothers, Edward and Solomon
Nelson, were in a field ploying. The
two doctors" went to the field and
induced the brothers to accompany
them to the farmhouse, where one of
the strangers who told the farmers
he was "Dr. Edwards" declared Ed
ward had a cataract and that it would
be necessary for him to take ira
dunn treatment" in order to avoid go
ing blind.
Edward Nelson signed two checks,
one for $3.50 and the other for $257,
each on a different Waconia bank.
The doctors" drove Immediately to
Waconia to cash the checks. The
cashier of the bank on which the $3.50
check was drawn refused to cash it
without Identification of the men.
They were successful in cashirg
the other check.
They then drove back to the Nelson
farm to induce one of the Nelson's to
accompany them to Waconia for
Identification, but got in their car
and sped for the Twin Cities, when
Marshall Edward Radde and one of
the banker drove to the Nelson farm.
Several years ago "eye specialists"
operated in this vicinity and when ap-
pretended put up bail, which they
jumped.-Brown Co. Journal.

OHIO EXPERT TO SPEAK
AT SWINE FEEDERS DAY

j. S. Coffey, Columbus, Ohio, who
is in charge of swine breeding work
at Ohio State University, will be one
of the speakers at the Minnesota
Swine Feeders Day at University
Farm, st. Paul, Wednesday, October
23rd. Mr.Coffey's subject will be
"The Influence of Breeding and Feed
ing in Developing Hog Type"
Factors that Determine Hog
Prices" will be the subject of talk
by N. X. Carnes, assistant manager
of the Central Cooperative associa-
ton of South St. Paul. A third ad-
dress of special interest to hog pro-
ducers will be given by DR.. H. c. H.
Kernkamp of the division of veterin-
airy medicine, University Farm, who
will speak on "Anemia-A Recent
Disease of Young Pigs"
The three talks mentioned will con-
stitute the afternoon program for
Swine Feeders Day. The morning
program, beginning at 10 o'clock,
will consist of announcements and
discussions of the results of four in
teresting experiments with swine
that have just been completed by the
Minnesota Agricultural Experiment
Station and it's branches.
One of these experiments deals
with the Record of Performance work
that has recently been started in the
United States. This is new method
of selecting breeding hogs from stock
that has proved to be economical in
the use of feed and to make high
quality carcasses of pork. The plan
accomplishes the same purpose as the
testing of dairy cattle and is very
similar to the Danish system of hog
improvement.
