Boy Scouts

~ NE of the finest tributes have heard paid
J to the Boy Scout organization was by Judge
Haycraft, in short talk at the Protective lea
que convention at Farmont couple Of weeks ago.
Judge Haycraf said that in his experience he had been
called upon pass sentence upon 600 people Of that
number 60 per cent boys and young not over
% years old. In his questioning of those sentenced
he made it point to ask whether they belonged to
the Boy Scouts of America H stated that in all that
number he had never been called upon sentence
Boy Scout. That statement could be at least approx
matey duplicated by hundreds of judges throughout
the United States Every normal boy is overlooking
with energy The Boy Scout organization provides
outlet for that energy in training the boy in good cit
izenship along with certain amount of physical act
ivity The Scout oath is of the finest deterrents
to crime that know Of And in spite of this wond-
erfu work allow the Scouts to go begging for funds
to keep the various troops going The parents them
selves could well deny themselves and pay all the
of such organization. 1t would be investment
that would pay good divdends.-Cottonwood County

Moulding a Nation

~ UR attention is turned, for the moment, toward

try for the peel of the opening bell has startled
our boyhood consciousness and recalled host of
cries. This sound strs a vague feeling within, some
thing remote and memory beckons us to view again
upward journey that long, long trail
through school, vaguely known education.
But despite the inclination to turn our footsteps
toward the old school do more than collect
thoughts in retrospecton of teachers Schools and
things.
What is it that keeps the average school teacher
the job if it isn't intangible spirit akin to
ternalism and paernalsm? For the average teachers
remuneration is not sufficiently attractive to suggest
a monetary gain.
No, rather, it is these innate qualities which make
teachers, that seek outlet and find expression in
following this noble profession. Love- honor patience,
leadership and sympathy
teacher is similar in position to a mother in re-
sponsbility. But the teacher is active in shaping the
individual to adapt himself environment whereas the
mother is chiefly concerned with individual character
development mothers viewpoint is restricted to
her own children while that of teacher is confined to
society at large.
Associating past memories with later acquired ex-
periences impresses with the tremendous respon
siblity resting upon the shoulders of eur teachers
Truly with them lies the task of moulding this nation
OF disintegratng foreign conceptions and insting
their minds unified democratic ideals of assmiating
a heterogeneous group into a concordant whole.
This is possible with public school system such
as we are fortunate to have in operation Consider
the circumstances in England where high school
academic training is granted the privileged few Once
plebeian invariably pebeian for the class distnc-
ton is additionally in force.
In America it is possible to outgrow ones environ
ment no matter how humble and step into any class
for in this democracy education is offered to rich OF
poor alike without discrimination.
Thanks to the farsighted individuals who drafted
the constitution giving freedom Of speech press and

~ EDWOOD FALLS needs an airport. The most
X significant trend in modern transportation is
air-trave. People are unconscious because they

Every enterprisng community throughout the ma

Redwood Falls needs an airport because it will aid

We must look to the future for this, and it may
not be so distant the day when regular mail routes,
passenger and freight service will connect and supple

FARM STUDY INDICATES
BEST PAYING CROPS

That the net returns from growing
different kinds of feed and cash crops
vary considerably, and that the selec-
ticn of crops has an important in
fluence on farm profits, are facts that
have come to light in the farm ac-
count studies that have been going
on for more than two years on zoo
farms in Dodge, Goodhue, Freedom
Rice Steele and Waseca counties.
Records are being kept by the farm
ers in cooperation with county
agents, the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture and the division
of farm management and agricultural
economics of the Minnesota Agricul-
tural Experiment Station.
Recently a report has been prepar-
ed classifying the crops grown on
these farms according to their rela-
tive profitableness, taking into con-
sideration yields, kinds and total
amounts of digestible nutrients in
the crop, its sale and feeding values,
its effects on soil fertility, and the
cost of producing the crop. Data
used in the determination included
the crop yields on the 200 farms for
the past two years, the average coun-
ty yields for the last 10 years and
the average December 1 prices for
the past five years. Below are the
four groups into which the crops were
placed.
Class A High Returns)-Alfalfa,
canning peas, sugar beets, potatoes.
Class B medium Returns )-Red
clover, sweet clover pasture, rape
pasture for hogs, corn for grain, win
ter wheat, flax, fax and wheat.
Glass c Low Returns)-Clover
and timothy, sweet clover hay, clover
and timothy pasture, corn silage, soy
beans, field peas, oats and peas, bar
ley, oats and bailey, spring wheat,
succotash, sweet corn.
at is possible that for certain
farms some of these crops should be
classified differently" says DIR. A.
Pond of the farm management divi-
sion. Moreover, the local market
situation, or particular conditions Of
soil, topography, or labor may make
it impossible or inadvisable to raise
certain crops. But in most cases, il
there is a local market for the crop

farmer in making the proper selection
Of crops to grow"
The above groupings of crops, OF
course, relates particularly to the zoo
farms studied, but is believed to have
close application to farms throughout
southeastern Minnesota and to be
generally applicable to much Of the
entire southern half of the state.

Patience of Greener Things

Patience of Greener Things
TT HE virtue of waiting is patience, observed the
philosophers of old, and nowhere is this better
emphasized than in Nature
For ninety days past plant life, Natures green
things, has been suffering from lack of moisture. It
has had occasional sprinkle true which hardly
tributed to alleviate the drought tendency.
But did you hear the trees or grasses complain?
Handicapped by winters parayzing effects the
grass sprouted just the last spring. The trees
added leaves and tiny branch shoots with the first
warmth of springs bamy air.
Where a careless truck driver ploughed through
the lawn, winds forces wrenched the trees boughs
from its FORM started its patient work of healing
its wounds without much whimper.
Only humans complain, and beguile Natures
plans.
All things to him who waits, penned sage,
calculating the quality of patience and do
better than take tip from Nature.
Good Suggestion
THE suggestion of our Photographic artist Mr. An
dersen that enhance the beauty of Ramsey
falls by filling the eroded parts with rocks and
mortar deserves recognition and action.
Ramsey State park is asset to our city and our
citizens should take interest and initiative make
attractive possible.
Probably few will scott at the idea, but you must
be aware that whole take the park thing for
granted and fail to appreciate many things visible
to the artistic eye
Remember that good many artistically inclined
visit this park annually and nearly everyone

Coolidge Prescribes
ANY ills chiefly mental. That is to say sick
JVI ness is more often than not state of mind
Insomnia for instance, often induced purely by
suggestion. If insomnia is advised by his physi-
clan to take foot bath upon retiring he reacts some
thing like this why, DOCTOR that makes stay awake
To which the wise physician will stamp his foot and
utter Nonsense. Try it and see. l know it will"
The authoritative position of the physician is
strong enough to over rule the patients sugges
ton. So the desired frame of mind conducive to
sleep is brought about by the physicians suggestion
of taking hot foot baths before retiring
Now dear old Uncle Sam has been complaining of
