PUBLIC FREE LIBRARY NOTES
There are authors to whoso works wo
turn always with confidence with full
faith that we shall at least be enter
tained Kate Douglas Wiggin is one of
theso Whenever a new book of hers is
announced we buy it because wo know
that it is worth reading The author is
not given to disappointing her public
Her latter books fulfill the promise of
her earlier work Of all who aro now
producing she is the brightest and most
sprightly
Her last book is Rebecca of Sunny
brook Farm It has been widely sought
in the few months since its issuance and
one who reads it is not surprised at its
popularity It is a story that will inter
est children and at the same time one
from which their elders will derive the
keenest enjoyment Without plot it is
the record of a series of incidents rather
than a novel Rebecca was a little pirl
of about thirteen years when the story
opeus one of seven children whom a
widowed mother struggled to feed and
clothe and educate The mothers two
maiden sisters who were in comfortable
circumstances offered to relievo the
widow of one of her charges and Re
beccabecauseshe could bo betterspared
than any of the others was sent to the
great brick house in the distant town in
which the maiden sisters lived
It is not difficult to imagine the dreary
life led by Rebecca in the big brick house
with the two austure nmidfin aunts
Rebecca was an unusually bright and
witty little little girl the fortunate pos
sessor of a sunny disposition and a de
sire to do what was right Otherwise
her life would have been far more diffi
cult than it was One cannot read the
pages of this remarkably clever book
without feeling the deepest sympathy
for the little heroine whose aunts with
out intending to be cruel made existence
all but unendurable The book though
brimming with humor has a strain of
pathos that adds to its charm There is
not a dull line in it Mrs Wiggin has
the rare and happy faculty of letting the
facts toll their own story She does not
find it necessary to preach and moralize
as so many authors do and yet she
teaches the profoundest truths in the
most impressive fashion
Rebecca is a book well worth the time
required to read it It is so much su
perior to the average novel of the day
that one considers himself fortunate in
finding a bit of literature about which
he can cheerfully say something good

Notice to Farmers
In going over the B M in the cen
tral and western parts of tho state I
note an unfavorable condition in a large
percent of the wheat and oat fields
caused by tho heavy rains in the early
part of May Tho surface is packed and
crusted and spots of greater or less mag
nitude in nearly all fields have a light
green color and the loaves are narrow
and point straight up While tho dry
ing out by evaporation has much to do
with this there is another trouble the
lack of air which is shut out by this
crust The pores of this crust are daily
being made smaller by tho upward move
ment of tho magnesia salts and alkalies
These aro being brought to the surface
by the moisture which is under this
condition fast escaping
when and how to harrow
Dont get into grain that is six or more
inches high when the dew is on Wait
just long enough in tho morning for the
blades to dry off and no longer Set
the teeth slightly slanting not too much
and as a rule harrow crosswise of tho
rows break the surface tnorougnly
Grain that is six inches high or over
thick with good width of blades and of
good color needs no harrowing
If this advice seems too radical then
just try a part of your field even a small
part and in two weeks bo kind enough
to report to me the results Yours for
better crops W H Campbell

Anton Magnet
Prank of Students
A book by Captain Mnrkliam of the
British army tells of experiences in
Westminster school London some
thing over half a century -ago He de
scribes the handings of those days
The back of the hand was extended
while the master standing behind
smote it with a rod which curled over
n little and left a cut and the culprit
facing the school observed the eti
quette of the occasion by wearing an
expression of scornful amusement
Captain Markham also descriAes tan
ning which was administered with
the butt end of a rod upon the backs of
the boys legs He recalls the code of
honor which was merciless to the boy
who broke his word or allowed another
to suffer for his offense but permitted
any amount of humbugging of a
itr Yiien disinclined lor scliool you
said I dont feel very well sir and
before the master inspected your
tongue you gave the upper surface a
hard pressure with your upper teeth
and out came a tongue white enough to
satisfy any doctor
Umlercronml Watern
The earth contains an abundance of
water even in places like some of our
great western plateaus where the sur
face is comparatively arid The great
est depth at which underground water
can exist is estimated to be about six
miles Below that It is believed tho
cavities and pores of the rock are com
pletely closed The amount of water
in the earths crust is reckoned at
nearly a third of that contained in the
oceans so that it would cover the
whole surface of the globe to a depth
of from 3000 to 3500 feet The waters
underground flow horizontally after
sinking below the unsaturated zone of
the rocks but in the sands of the Da
kota formation which supply remark
able artesian wells the motion does
not exceed one or two miles a year
The underflow toward the sea beneath
the great plains may sometimes take
the form of broad streams or moving
sheets of water but the movement is
excessively slow Youths Companion
Indians Have Iliircl Teeth
I dont care for Indians as patients
said a dentist the other day No it
Isnt that they are objectionable per
sonally it is just because there is no
money to be made out of them at regu
lar rates The hardness of an Indians
tooth is something to marvel at and
if I had many of them to treat I should
be forced to have instruments of un
usual strength made to order Tho
ordinary kind wont stand the pressure
I filled one cavity in a red mans tooth
the other day and before I got through
I had turned the edges of no less than
twenty drills There isnt much money
in that sort of work is there And
talk about the Indians vaunted stoi
cism and imperviousness to pain Why
that fellow yelled every time I touched
him Ive had six-year-old children be
have better in the chair Philadel
phia Record
Sentiment Versus Fact
That the advance preparation of
speeches will not always conform to
circumstances Avas made evident dur
ing a flag raising at a public school
The young orator had been speaking
for several minutes when he advanced
to the front of the platform raised his
hand with a dramatic gesture to tho
flag on the staff above him and shouted
See yon flag throwing its protecting
folds to the breeze of freedom
It was a pretty sentiment but the
breeze didnt bear out the picture
The flag to which all eyes were imme
diately turned hung as limp as if it
had been dipped in water
Grievances
Every day in the year the average
man has a grievance On the last day
in the year he has probably forgotten
the other 304
Three hundred and sixty five days in
the year he has poured his particular
grievance into the ears of some poor
devil who has troubles of his own
Whats the use of it
Dont kick Let the other fellow do
the kicking and give him cause
Dont bluff Some day fate is goinj
to deal you a good hand Pittsburg
