Beaverton - - - Ilillsboro Forest Grove SOME PRAYER BOOK J. J. Mcaeham, of this city, semis the Argus the following story, going the rounds of the press, telling how a soldier used a deck of cards as bible, almanac and prayer book: A private soldier, by the name of Richard Lee, was taken before the magistrate of Glasgow, Sco. land, for playing cards during di vine services. At the church those who had Bibles took them out, but this soldier had neither Bible nor common prayer book, and pulling out a pack of cards he spread them before him. He first looked at one card and then at another. The sergeant of the company saw him and said: "Richard, put up the cards; this is no place for them." "Never mind that," said Rich ard. When the services were over the constable took Richard a pris oner and brought him before the mayor. "Well." said the mayor, "uhal have von brought the soldier here for?" "For playing cards in church." Well, soldier, what have you to say for yourself?" "Much, sir, 1 hope." "Very good; if not, 1 will pun ish you severely." "I have been," said the soldier, "about six weeks on the march. I have neither Bible nor common prayer book. 1 have nothing but a pack of cards, anil I hope to satisfy your worship of the puri ty of my intentions. Then, spreading the cards be fore the mayor, he began With the ace. "When I see the ace it reminds me that there is but one God. When I see the deuce, it reminds me of the Father ami Son. When I sec the trey, it reminds me of Father, Son and Holy Ghost. When I see the t it reminds me of the four evangelists that preached Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. When I see the 5, it reminds me of the five wise vir gins that trimmeil their lamps. There were IT) but 5 were wise and 5 were toolish. ami were shut out. hen I sec the (i, it reminds me that m o clavs the l.onl mail heaven and earth. When I the 7, it reminds me that on th 7th dav God rested from tl great work he had made, and hal lowed it. When I sec the 8, it re minds me of the 8 righteous pe sons that were saved when God lestroved the world, viz.; No; and his wife, his three sons and their wives. When I see the 9 reminds me of the !) lepers that were cleansed by our Saviour There were 9 out of 10 that nev er returned thanks. When I the 10, it reminds me of the commandments which God ham ed down to' Moses on the table of stone. When I see the king it reminds me of the great Kin of heaven, which is God Almigl ty. W hen I see the queen, it re minds me of the Queen of Sheba who visited Solomon, for she w as wise a woman as he was man. She brought with her 50 :ioys and CO girls, all dressed boys' apparel, for King Solomon to tell which were boys am which were girls. The king went for water for them to wash. Tin girls washed to the elbows, the hoys to the wrists; so King Solo man told by that." H ell, saul the mayor, you have described every card in tin pack except one." W hat is that?" Tl 1 1 i i i ne Knave, said tne mayor, I will give ymr honor a d scription of that, too, if you wii not be angry." i win not, said the mayor if you do not term me. to be; the knave." "The greatest knave I know but a careful selection of grain should be made even though the variety be known. Corn should be selected that is deep grained, small cobbed, well tilled at butts and ' tips, and should be well matured. To note the points it is advisable to ex amine the seed in the ear, as ad vantage is sometimes taken by shelling. When grain is selected that conforms to all these points a germination test should be run and seed that gives a high per eentage of germination should be selected. County Agent. Next Monday the Public Ser vice commission will give the Pa cific Telephone - Telegraph Co. a hearing. The company wishes to raise its rates locally. The hearing is rather a work of su pererogation - as the commission will doubtless raise the rates with or without.

"I do not know," said the may or, if he is the greatest knave nut I know he is the, greatest fool "When I count how many spots there arc in a pack of cards I find !t(i!i, as many days as there are in iiri T ... year. nen l count the num ber of cards in a pack, I find 52 the number of weeks in a year I find there are 12 picture cards in a pack, representing the num ber of months in a year; and on counting the tricks, I find 13, the number of weeks in a quarter. So you see, a pack of cards serves as a Bible, an almanac and n com mon prayer book." CORN AND THE SILO The silo was about the only thing that "pulled through" some of the dairies the past year, and should be valuable experience to those who have not yet invested in one of these "pasture fanners." The dairy cows need bulky, nutri tious, palatable feed, and silage cr rtainly fills the bill. The real problem in connection with the silo is to get corn that will give the very highest yield. Lowering the cost of production applies to the dairy business as well as any other manufacturing plant. By increasing the corn yield the. feed cost is lowered. One of the important means of improving the yield can be taken up at this time and that is in the selection of seed. A number of varieties are giving good results, NOTICE TO CKhlil lOKS Notice is hereby given, that the un dersigned has been appointed admin istratrix of tho estate of E. T.
