You reach a certain level of intelli
gence when you are ready to admit i
that you dont know all the answers, j
J
It begins to look like it will take c
a few thousand additional Italians to (
win the Spanish war.
' >
In life it is well to remember that
death strikes with warning and so, j
you might as well live your best now. j
A good rule to follow, in develop
ing your personality, is to express ?
yourself honestly. It isn't always j
done. :
^
The bright school child wants to
know if there is any reason why "be- j
ing educated" should be a tedious ?
process.
The law should recognize no dif
ference between persons and viola
tions should be punished without
exception.
In that future day, when all secrets
shall be revealed and all things made
known, a lot of men will have to flee
the country.
?
When the wage scale ascends the
moral tone moves upward. This is ^
one argument for a higher standard ^
of living for all the world. ^
ABOLISH THE "FIXER." ]
Every reader is familiar with the !j
enormous loss of life through high
way accidents in this country every ^
year and many have seriously pon- ^
ciered the problem of safety.
Recently, an experienced police of
ficer declared that one of the great
est handicaps in enforcing traffic
regulations was the "fix." The offi
cer said, "Nowadays almost every
one, from the ditch-digger to State
Senator, has a friend in the police
department or knows someone who
has." Given a ticket for violating
traffic regulations, they appeal to the
friend who, too often, finds it hard
to refuse them.
*
In' conclusion, this official express
ed the opinion that we would soon
have better drivers and safer high
ways if everyone knew that there
would be no "fixing" of a traffic sum
mons. This observation is essentially
sound. Unless those who violate
traffic laws are apprehended and
punished, the fatalities on highways
and streets will continue to increase.

DIES DESPITE PRECAUTION
Abilene, A ex as. ? When Riley c
Swift, 38, went fishing he always j
took the precaution of tying himself
to a tree to protect himself from
drowning. However, his body was 1
found dangling from a rope tied to |
a willow tree, his head submerged in
a creek. Had the rope been six
inches, he would not have drowned. ^

Timely Farm
Questions
Question: How can peanuts be ,
rtacked to prevent soilage?
Answer: The stack should be built
;o that the nuts are not exposed to
he weather and finished in such a
say that water will not run down !
he center. Canvas hay caps are
?ecommended for use on top of the
itack. Nail two cross arms on the
enter pole 12 inches from the top '
o keep the vines off the ground.
Lnose soil in the stack will also cause
lamage to the pods and nuts and
or this reason the ground should be
airly dry when the peanuts are dug.

Question: May skim milk or but
ermilk be substituted for the dried
nilk recommended in the poultry
aying mash?
Answer: Yes. Where milk is pro- '
luced on the farm this substitution
:an be made with a big saving in feed
ost for the average farm flock.
Vhen only the dried milk is removed
rom the mash, one gallon of skim
nilk or buttermilk should be fed
iaily to 100 hens. When skim milk ,
>r buttermilk is fed at the rate of
hree gallons a day for the 100 birds,
t may be substituted for all of the
Lried milk products, one-half of the
ish meal, and one-half of the meat
neal recommended.
Question: How can I control cat
;le lice on my daves?
Answer: The following remedies
lave proven effective in controlling
his insect A four percent solution
>f creolin applied with a spray pump
>r brush; Cotton seed oil and kerosene,
:qual parts, and ground sabadilla
;eed and flowers of sulphur, equal
>arts, applied in powder form. A
lip or liquid remedy should be ap
)lied in an even layer over the en- 1
ire body of the animal. Oils, how
iver, should not be used on very
Farm or very cold days. When pow- 1
ler is used the>hair should be clip
>ed from the affected parts of the 1
>ody and the powder applied only on
he clipped places. A second treat
nent should be given within fifteen
lays to kill lice which hatch after
he first treatment
There are children who have al- i
eady had enough of school.
DEVOTION TO PARENTS
Breathes there a man with soul so
dead
Fhat to himself has never said
"My Father, my Mother who brought
me here
Shall ever be cherished in memory
dear?"
If there be such a one, mark him
well,
Of them, let justice and honor tell
Their doom, their shame, their un
hallowed name
To the world, to destiny, from whence
they came.
Like unto birds that are of a feather,
Who are always found flocking to
gether,
Let men be true and mingle with one
another
Standing ready to defend Father and
Mother.
No human, living mortal being,
Living on God's earth, without a feel
ing
That they owe to their Father and
Mother 1
More gratitude, more honor than to
any other.
Let conscience smite, then, like a
snare
Until they realize, from whence they
came and where.
Life's speedways are not all gilded
in gold;
No man should forsake, nor forget
1 the aged and old.
When Life's morn is swiftly going,
And the bells of evening are tolling,
Twilight with dew is gently falling
And a distant voioe is heard calling.
Like King David we should pray,
As we live through from day to day,
Oh, God forsake us not when we are
old,
But take us into your sacred fold.
No words that human life has ever
spoke
No thoughts, no poems man ever
wrote
Can recompense for our gifts, from
one another,
Nor the debt we owe to our Fther
and Mother.
When we live three score years and
ten,
We may be numbered as old women
and men;
But we should never forget from
whence we came
Nor ever regret the gift of our
name.

COW WRECKS CAR
Wickenburg, Ariz. ? Mrs. Elmo
Maize's car was demolished when a
cow, sailing through the air, draped
itself around the front of her auto
mobile, sending both the cow and the
car into the ditch. The cow had been
hit by a bus traveling in the opposite
direction, which hurtled it into the
path of the oncoming automobile.
Result: A wrecked car, a disabled
bus and a dead cow.
