PLUG CHEWING
A WHOLESOME
HABIT
In No Other Way Can You Get All the
Richness and Flavor of the Leaf
'SPEAR HEAD" BEST CHEW
Many prominent physicians declare
chewing to be the most wholesome way
ot enjoying tobacco.
I began chewing some years ago.
said one, "and I soon found that it is
the only way to get the benefit of all
the rich juices stored up bv nature in
the tobacco leaf. I refer, of course, to
the plug form of tobacco, which is the
most natural and the cleanest form.
"Chewing cowl tobacco like Sncar
Head makes the salivary glands more
active, which in turn has a beneficial
effect on the whole system. Add to this
the sweet, mellow, delicious flavor of a
chew of Spear Head, and vou have
the highest possible degree of tobacco
satisfaction.
"1 mention Spear Head because I
have found that this brand is exception
ally pure, being made in a factory
that's run strictly according to pure-
food rules."
Spear Head is made of sun-rinened
Rurley, which is acknowledged to be
the richest, mildest, finest flavored to
bacco leaf in the world. And it is
produced by the latest processes, which
develop the quality and luscious flavor
of the choice Hurley to the supreme degree.
A chew of Spear Head has a whole
some relish that is not found in any
other chewing tobacco. Try a 5c or
10c cut.

Milder Iteactlon in America
"In America, reaction was taking
milder forms. The automobile, the
baseball diamond, billiards, bowling,
the gridiron relieved the tension, par
ticulaiiy the dancing mania, which
swept over us like an obsession.
Stiliiillunt.s lU'lievc Tension
"Tobacco relieves in an artificial
way the tension on the brain ly
miralvzing temporarily the hluh'-r
re recently developed brat
but the safest and eure:'i
remedy is that of old Mother Naturt
which is play."
The instinct of play, of relaxation
of change, is evidenced in everything
that lives. Kven the lower animal
set us the example.
Fears a Molljcoddle tienernlioii
P. P. Claxton. United States com
missioner of education, in a recent
address at Los Angeles before the d
partment congress on physical cut
tuie. warned the teachers that a gen
oration of mollycoddles must be tin
result of Bchools that do not wor k up
a co-oneri't ve interest in Piay aim
recreation among the children.
"What god is a fund of knowledge
if the possessor must stand shivering
on ttie hrinK wnnoui me courage iu
plunge in? We Just can't build up a
hystem of education without piay.
There is more development in a sys
tem of calisthenics than in the sec
ond reader."
This is the lesson that the experi
ence of the times and the best thots
of the world are giving us. Can the
people of the smaller towns of this
country afford to ignore it? Can we
shut our eyes to the fact that our
young people are leaving comfortable
Kiuntry homes and rushing to the
big cities In such great numbers that
our home towns and the rural diet
ricts are being depopulated?
Think of it seriously for a moment
and you will need no furtaher evi
dence of what this means from every
point of view. Some wise people
say, "Well, what's the use of talking
about it, for it can't be helped. If
the young folks want to go to the big
cities they will go, and you can't
stop them." That sort of reasoning
is i n easy way to shift the responsi
bility. It's the kind of reasoning
which creates conditions that are
driving thousands of healthy, strong,
good young people away from home
In the rural districts to the slums and
vice holes of the hlg cities. It'a the
same reasoning that has made life in
the home town a nightmare Dy cre
ating conditions which compel young
people to live in surroundings that
are too solemn and sedate for any
thing other than a well conducted
home for superannuated human
crabs of the variety which is respon
sible for many of our country towns
going backward.
Let the young people alone. Treat
them like human beings. If they
want to play more than you think Is
good for them, just remember those
food old frontier days when you and
I were young. Think of the many
hours we devoted to hunting and
fishing when game and Ash were
plentiful. There was real sport In
thos days. We had our fon all
right and we must not find fault if
the young people of today are com
nelled to find theirs In a different
way.
Ilox Itutte Know Highest Avenure
Production Although There
Was Hm&ll Acreage
Although Box Butte county Is not
nearly at the top of the list in the
matter of total production. It ranks
with the first counties on the average
yield per acre. The production In
most of the counties over the state
runs around 30 bushels, but in this
and two o ther counties In the west
ern part of the state the average Is
the same. Very little barley Is rais
ed In the eastern half of the state,
but In some of the western counties
it Is grown extensively. Hitchcock
county, for Instance, had 12,668 ac
res In barley, which yielded an aver
age of 30.3 bushels to the acre, the
total production being 380.810 bush
els. This tops the list In the barley
table for acreage and slxe of harvest.
lied Willow county raised 241,966
bushels; Furnas. 229.229; Chase,
224,860; Hayes. 223.300; Dundy,
179.105. Grant county is at the bot
tom of the list with 60 bushels.
Box Butte makes no pretense of
being a barley county, but the report
by the department of agriculture,
from which this Ib taken, again deni
onstrates the supremacy -of this coun
ty as a nroducer In all lines. This
year Box Butte county has not had
a poor crop of anything the yields
have been bountiful.
Cherry county was the only one
that raised more pots toes this year
than Box Butte, but when one takes
into consideration the difference in
i.e between I bene two counties It is
readily seen 'hut proportionately Box
Butte is far iu the lead. Cherry
county is a little more than six times
as large as Box Butte, and the yield
in Cheiry was not twice as much as
that of Box Butte
Wailing for ht'M-k Show
There has been considerable dis
appointment at Denver over the fuct
that the attendance at the big Inter
national Soil Products Exposition in
October included very few farmers
and stockmen from the Rocky Moun
tain states. The outside attendance
at this event was less than 5.0U0, und
most of these came from the small
towns. This result only emphasizes
the fact that western fanners and
ranchmen are unable to leave their
farms and ranches during the early
fall. Most of them are planning to
take in Stock Show week in Januury
when there is no dilliculty to get
away from home for a week or two.
t Is the only time in the year thai
the farmers and stork men as a class
are able to visit Denver. The Slock
Show means both business and pleus
ure. Denver is expecting the largest
attendance of farmers and stockmen
at the coming January show that
was ever had. In 1914 the attend
a nee was close to .iu.uuu. ana u is
expected that at the coming show
there will be over 40.000 outside peo
ple in Denver. The railroads are
planning to make very low rates lor
this occasion, and there is now no
longer any question but that the
show will be held and will be larger
and better than ever.
