MUCH A.S LIKE THE AiCT of CORPSCTIN6 Ben Buschke waa in from hia Rhea creek ranch yesterday. While it is very springlike out his way, the ground ia yet too wet to do any plow. ing, and may be .nus until tha mid dle of March. Ben ia just a little suspicious that we may yet get some winter weather, but he has no desire to be put in the class of weather pro. phets. He remembers, however, that in the spring of 1908, on the 9th day of March, there waa a very heavy snow fall and aome quite severe wea ther. It killed off all the squirrels that spring, and as the pests were very numerous, the big storm proved to be a blessing in this respect. Healthy baby chicks from my rec ord laying strain of W.

TWO RELIGIONS Ou Chrtstiaa TALK to nd I will tell you rour religion mavb I will not call it by th name you um but ft will b one of tht two cither Peiil miam or Optimiim. It la youra and you have made it youra. It U obvious that only the latter creed ii the right creed. Reeardleu that both these creeds have plenty of facte to support them here are a few thought! which may help you. Pessimism is destructive. Optimism is constructive. The creed of Pessimism is the be lief that you will perish like a dog. It is despair and ends in friendless- nesa grief and failure. Opposite is the optimist who be lieves in life in the divinity and in- conquerableness of immortal spirit. From it he enjoys the satisfactions of life and is a joy to others. The only enemy man has is him self. Conquer self and make of your self an optimist. Not a blind believer in acquired friends and goods without effort but instead an optimist through full realization that M you practice Chris tian living and Christian thinking there is nothing in this world to de feat you. Without such spirit you may have life but you have no Christian religion. THROWN FROM PLOW; INJURED. Harry Duvall, Swaggart Butte far mer, was thrown from hia gang plow on Friday afternoon, receiving a se vere cut on one of hia ears that near ly severed that member from his head. He was standing up on the gang when the plow struck a rock and pitched hira off. The wheel struck the side of his head with the result as stated. Coming to town he was treated by Dr. Johnston, who stitched the ear in place and expects that Mr. Duvall will experience no bad results from his experience. Eastern Star Social Club Is Entertained!
