BOOKKEEPING HEARTS
BY Lucy Sims Thompson

TN the National Farm JournaD
Housekeeping hearts are happiest?"
Well, that just makes it clear
Why happiness abides with us,
Increasing year by year.
We're country folk, and so we toll,
But oh, that toll is blest
With recompence beyond compare
That crowns LIES every test.
To some it may appear that we
Are too alone out here;
That we're denied too many things
The mOdernist holds dear.
But we've a coy little house,
A garden full of flowers,
A cheerful living-room where we
Spend many happy hours,
A bit of lawn, a vineclad porch,
A kitchen bright and clean,
Two friendly shade trees by the walk
With latticed gate between.
And we have love and faith in God
And sturdy girls and boys,
And God be praised, we have a zest
For simple, wholesome joys.
Clean air, bright sunshine, whole
some food
Insure us blessed health;
Our fields that smile in broad eXpanse
O'erflow with all the wealth
That sun and rain and fertile soil,
Great Mystic Trinity,
Bestows on him who knows and keeps
It's bylaws faithfully.
The charms of Nature, heaven-sent,
Greet US each waking hour;
Sweet peace of mind and soul content
Is Natures deathless dover.
Housekeeping hearts are happiest?'
My friends, within that phrase
The secret of contentedness
Awaits our restless gaze.
And he who seeks for happiness
In lands far and unknown
Will find at last that it abides
Beside his own hearthstone.

College campuses vary greatly in
Size. Some urban colleges have prac-
tcally no campuses. Campuses main
tanned by Immigrant colleges differ
considerably. The largest is that of
Mississippi Agricultural and Mechani-

next largest is that of the University
Of Florida with 673 acres. Others
vary from 60 acres at the University

state now witnesses the monstrosity
of nonpartisan group trying to de-
feat the will of the voters who elected
Governor Olson by organizing the
house of representatives against the

1.-The voters of Minnesota by a ma
jority of 10000 or more said they
wanted Olson to govern, and in a
week few standpat, political bosses
came back and said the voters did
not know what was for their best
interest and so they are going to tie
the governors hands by electing one
of the old, standpat gang the speak

that is out trying to elect so-called
conservative speaker is the same
group that passed the re-apportion-
ment bill, the truck bill, and the no
torious sewage bill.
To Introduce Bill.
Minnesota is the only state that
does not elect the legislature on a
party basis. Thus we have the spec

then lining up with the conservatives
on the organization of the legisla.

This is not conductive to good
government and for that reason
shall introduce a bill Immediately the

run on party basis. If this is not
done, our state government will be-

STATE BUTTERMAKERS
WIN CONTEST HONORS

Minnesota buttermakers for the
fourth consecutive year carried away
first national honors in the annual
butter scoring contests conducted by
the National Creamery Buttermakers'
association at its Mason City, Iowa,
convention earlier this month. This
is a continuation of a habit the but
termakers seem to have acquired dur
ing the past 80 years. In the team
contest, Minnesota led the field with
an average score of 94,4SS, with Wis
consin second and Iowa third. Min
nesOta has won this distinction 18
times in the 26 annual contests con-
Quoted since 1900.
Not only did the North Star state
carry away the team honors, but
through the excellence of four of its
top-notch buttermakers, carried off
the grand championship sweepstakes,
the junior sweepstakes, the junior
cold storage contest first prize, the
senior fresh butter contest first hon
Ors and the junior fresh butter con-
test first prize.
Individual Winners.
To Walter Schriver, Sank Center,
who has been the most consistent
butter prize winner in 1882, went the
national buttermaking grand champ
ionship. Mr.. Schriver distinguished
himself with butter which rated an
average score of 1925.
Burton Olson, Paynesville, captured
two national championships. He won
the Junior national sweepstakes with
butter scoring 1896, and the junior
cold storage contest with butter rat
ing a 94.75 score.
Each national sweepstakes champ
ion received a gold watch.
Ernest w. Olson, Westport, won the
Junior fresh butter contest, while
Martin Anderson, Vasa, captured the
national honors in the senior fresh
butter contest.

SHOUSE IS HELD
TOO BIASED
FOR SMITH
Also Charged as AIoof in
Consulting Leaders in
Drafting Speech

Democrats on Capitol Hill
are showing a lively interest in
the struggle over the perma-
nent craftsmanship of their
Chicago convention.
There was a wide belief that
Senator Thomas Walsh of Mon
tana, permanent chairman of
the 1924 convention at New
York, would be chosen over
Jouett Shouse, the party's
executive director.
The Roosevelt camp favored
Walsh, as did the followers of
several "favorite son" candidates.
Shouse was backed by the or
ganization of John J. RaSkob.
Democratic national chairman.
The objection currently voiced
against Shouse was that he has
been too active" in behalf of
Smiths candidacy to be given
the impartial post of presiding
at the convention. ShouSe was
insisting the Roosevelt organiza-
ton once pledged him its sup
port and declined to withdraw.
Another objection raised was
that Shouse would not consult
with other leaders in drafting
his speech as permanent chair
man.
Senator Alben w. Barkley of
Kentucky, the "keynoter," was
following a different course. He
offered to submit his speech in
advance to the approval of the
candidates tn e m Ives. This
pleased everybody.
