BeckhofT, pitching for the Bears, was in big league form and shbuld have had a shut out to his credit, as the visitor's scores were all made on blundersby thp home team. He struck out 14 men, allowed five hits, one pass, and hit two batters. Williams for the visitors fanned 12 men, allowed six hits and passed four batters. The game was played in a fierce wind which handicapped the fielders to some extent. An extension of four miles was added to route one from the Dakota City postoffice by the postoffice de partment, the same taking effect Monday.

UECKIIOFF. Two more fanners have started cooperation with the county agent and Dakota County Fanners' Asso ciation in the feeding of hogs, with especial reference to hogging down corn and the use of the self feeder for tankage. Every once in a while we come across a man who is feeding his lot of market hogs on corn alone with not even the run of an alfalfa field. This method of feeding will attain the end sought alright, but has proven to be too expensive when compared to a more balanced ration where the protein is furnished, even in what we term a high priced feed. We mention tankage at this time because it is one of tho best protein feeds and while it may bo expensive, it is also very rich in protein and considering the results obtained it is really the cheapest protein concen trate. It is for this purpose that we put on these cooperative tests, to show that the farmer can get t,he same results with these feeds that they do at the experiment stations and in many cases do even better. Pigs that are on full feed and fed a balanced ration, will cost more for feed in a 'certain length of time, but will also make greater gains than those not, and in the end the cost per 100 pounds of gain will be less where fed a balanced ration. Many people are hogging corn, which from most any way you view it is an excellent practice and to use a self feeeder for the concentrates permits the hog to balance his own ration, which he will often do beUer than one could do it for him. Only one new case of cholera has been reported in the last ten days and a common renri-k heard this fall is that there do., t seem to be much cholera around. Let's keep it this way. Three cases of tetanus or lock jaw in pigs and calves have come to my attention the past week, one of suf ficient severity to cause quite a heavy loss. A couple of these ani mals were taken as a clinic before a meeting of the association of veteri narians in Sioux City last week, the majority of whom had never seen tetanus in swine. No satisfactory remedy could be offered was the general opinion. ' Quite a good meeting was held at Goodwin last Tuesday evening de spite tho bad weather. Your County Agent discussed the care of swine up to the fattening period, when Mr. Warner, of Lincoln, spoke brief ly on quality and quantity of feeds to be given. Lutheran Church Notes DAKOTA C1TY-SALEM Yesterday I read an article in a popular magazine telling how and why the rural churches were dying. He quoted from the report of some federal inquiry board that had spent a "whole year" investigating the matter. We are glad indeed the reason is found at length by the fed eral board, and now the church, the poor church that is hopelessly behind the times, and does not have sense enough to manage its affairs with modern business methods, and which follows an antiquated and thoroly outgrown theological system, can sit up and take notjee, and right the wrongs within her, now that the federal doctors have diagnosed the case and prescribed the peneca which will cure all the ills of the church, and then; O you millennium, long looked for and longed for! wash your face and put on clean white garments, and be ye ready, O ye people, for the coming of righteous ness. But this righteousness like the earthquake of Elijah, will have the Lord in it. The remedy for tho decadence of the country-church, is the "sociali zation" of tho church, if I may use that term. Make the church a so cial center, have the preacher ue a social leader, let him be the agri cultural advisor of the community, let him be the helper of every man in need of a. hand, and so forth. With such a program either my friend BeckhofT or myself would be out of work-in the spring in tho Sa lem community. All 1 can say is that tho church still has an edge on the farm by the same federal inqui ties, for while there are but about HTt" of the rural churches that are making progress and as many more which are holding their own, there are only about 17"a of the farms paying interest on the investment and wages to the farmer besides, and that in the face of the state and federal experiment stations and di rect federal and state aid for county field agents who are experts in all lines of agriculture. Let your hat come ofr to the church, please, and you will find the pastors of the ru ral churches about as expert in their line as the ordinaryf run of special ists. The trouble with these investiga tors and magazine writers is they do not know what the church is for, they do not understand the work of the church, and they get their in formation from a lot of people who, though all right in the way of the world, have little or no sympathy with the church. It is the same old tale of the carnal minded trying to discern tho things of the spirit. Wo must say these informers through out the country are enemies of the church, not openly antagonistic, of course, but sympathetic. The church is not a social organi zation, it is a spiritual body, Tho work of the church is not to be a so cial leader, primarily, but to be a a spiritual leader. Tho field of the church is not the feed lot nor the plrtwed acres, but the hearts of men, rminMmsamxBaaHmmKemimi"imMimiiv,ii.MiwHi i, j,i m STINSON'S p Specials for Saturday, Oct 7 For tHis, "Dcxy Only iii i n 1 1 nail U-lb can Krnut 10c 1 pkgs of corn Hake s 25c 1 -lb Cans Pink Salmon ; 25c 3 5c pkgs Toothpicks 10c 2 pkgs 25c Coffee 45c 3 pkgs Toasted Wheat.

If the social and agricultural features of the the com munity are to enter into the work of the church, they are not to bo there as the'primary objects, but ns secondary and helpful to the spiritu al end. We have Field Agents in communities to advise and help in purely business affairs, and thesfact is that most of the farmers' knoV more about the things of tho farm than tho preachers know, and why shouldn't they, for that is their business and not that of the preach ers. What the chivrch people want is no worldly advice lots of people in Dnkota county will not receive Mr. Beekl','' advice in agricultu ral affair" ut they want tho Gos pel or jes, ' ;nnst. They want re ligion preached, and upheld, they want tho touch of the Infinite. If social and educational features can be used for the furtherance of tho church they nre all well and good, but if they cannot be made to serve the end of the christian religion, it is just as well to leave that work to agencies that are cut out for that work especially. It is a mighty pity that 100 of tho rural population are not interested in tho church. It is likewise a pity 100"i of the popu lation are not wise managers of their worldly affairs, but it is a fact.

Aucock, Pastor. A Boost for McAllister What a republican newspaper, the O'Neill Frontier, whose editor, Mr. Cronin, was with McAllister in the 1913 legislature, says of Mr. McAllister. Here it is: "J. J. McAllister of Dakota City was an O'Neill visitor on legal business last Friday. Mr. McAl lister was a member q the legisla ture of 1913 and was one of tho most influential membeira of that body. While Mr. McAllister is an ardent democrat ho is not so blindly parti san but what he can see the good in members of other parties and would support any measure, no matter from what party it emanat ed, if he was convinced that it would be for tho benefit of the people of tho state. During tho 1913 legislature he was an ardent and enthusiastic champion of state water power, desiring that such legislation should bo enacted as would prevent privato corpora tions from securing control of water power sites. Ho made a splendid fight for tho measure, and that ho lost was not through any fault of his. Men of his abil ity and rugged honesty should be kept in the legislature, as their services is of incalculable benefit to tho people of the state," -y. )' Hi iJWSSStMmZJ21 w, rrraci
