The Homer Star, in its is sue of last week, devoted considera ble space to -advertising the Allen ball team, although tho editor of that paper did not think of it in that light. The Homer people cannot re cover from the effects of the game between Allen and Homer three weeks ago. Instead of considering it in the light of a ball game and being good sports abotft it (as they were after the Fourth of July game) they take personal offense in the matter. They seem to dislike to 'give any other teum credit for playing good ball. THE FORD MEN UHUlSllSllralSJlSM m !

' Here is to be a story that ought to be published in these column's till its appearance came to be 'ridiculous and till everybody would laugh a real hearty laugh at it, then it wquld ac complish its mission, It is an oiJ saying that a laugh is the best'sauco at the table. It shakes up the' sys tem till it works well, the moods of the mind react on the organs of th,e body, That is a true dictum. , That is tho basis of the saying, "Laugh and grow fat." If you laugh it is more likely that the bodily organs function properly the digestive, and assimilatlvo organs doing n manifest vork. . jj It is said,' ond think, it is truer tiat.eyory,mopaof ,tuo mind. has tyuch an effect on-the system that there is "a peculiar chemical reactidn by the moisturev of the breath. Every one knows that a joyous mood in duces a smile and an outburst of the body till a man feels like action. We know, also, that a sorrowful heart is depressive of the whole system. There is no action, the face is drawn, the tears (low, and everything seems out of joint. You have often noticed tho similarity in noise's, may be, in a laugh and a cry, and yet they are never mistaken for each other. Ar while there is an outward and mani fest action of tho moods there is also an inward action. , The same may be said of anger, that is a poison. It is h common incident that nursing mothers cause tho death of their ba bies because in a fit of anger or shortly thereafter they nurse the child. Tho cholcr of their mood starts tho poison through the veins und in an instaht their whole system is aroused to an outburst of mad ness ajid the person flies into a fit of rage, and their actions are furiouj, The presence of whisky in tho system causes well known actions of the body, and the presence of anger poi son causes tho woll known actions and mind of rage, It is not the rage that causes tho poison to flow. Indi gestion turns loose a virus, if one can call it such, that brings on a grouch. And so examples might be multiplied. A happy, hopeful dis position is i bettor field for the re sponse to tho physician's reincdieti. I knew of a man who went to town feeling good, but a half" dozen men had schemed together to tell him he looked pale and sickly, and when lie had met the half dozen and their story he went home and called the physician to Ills' bedside. His mind had poisoned his body. Hut thero are a lot of people who do not meet such con&pjring friends, iney simpiy complain and find fault with theinsolvps and this is tho mat ter and that alls them until they -auioiniQxicaio themselves with a poison that really ipduces the disease they think they have or at least pro naro their systems for the coming of the malady, No ono nor anything is to blame for it all but themselves; they are really sick; they need at tention, Sugar pills and hitter wa ter may bo all tho drugs they need, but that is enough to relievo their mind and thoy improvo with time, and then comes the bill to make it a reality. This is telling no secret, for everyone knows it. A largo percentage of ills could bo prevented and a lot of them could be cured if people would luugh. A cer tain ovangellst, after a hard night's work, went to his place of entertain ment and ato a hearty meal Ijeforo he retired, A bad case of acute in digestion gump on which kept him In bed for som,e days. Tho ministerial association sent condolences to him and prayer) by a good old sanctimo nious brother who was very serious, as serious as tho acute indigestion. Tho good brother folded his hands and with a drawl began to give his message and consolo tho sick man. Tho whole manner of the visitor ap pealed to tho sick man as ridlculoua and positively funny. He itood the JT MEAN TO YOU I m u m u m m u m m n u U GEO deposits. affair as long as possible and then began to laugh, and the longer the heartier, until he shook up his sys tem so much and started a flow of joy essence that the disease was coun teracted and ho began to menu speedily. Don't forever complain and foster your aches and pains, that seats then! deeper, and makes them more perma nent. Why take an ugly, sickening drug when a good ono tastes better and makes you feel better? Learn to laugh, and then laugh. Don't be stingy about it, 'twont cost you any thing; spread laughs around thick. Go to tho mirror and see how differ ent you will look as you put on U scowl and then a smile. Learn it. Wait till all the folks are away from home and then 'go up stairs or out behind the barn and put on a "horse laucrh:" do that till it anDeals tovoh as funny to yourself and then youV "horse laugh" will turn to the rcrtl thing you will laugh' a real laugh. Supposeyou went to a movio or ji vaudeville that ' waaadvertised to-bo a roar from the start to the finish, ana mere you wouia una me actors as glum and moroso as you arc, you would find the players playing to an empty house before the show was over, xou expect to laugh whon you go to see Charlie Chaplin, and that is half the reason you laugh liko you do. Learn to laugh whilo you visit, laugh while you work, laugh all the time. No, don't be sHly or giggly, that isn't laughing, It will make a new per son of you, You will actually feel better, your friends will liko you better, your work will bo oasler, bus iness will go oasler and more success ful. One man came1 on tho Homer chautauqua whero people were rather disgusted with the program, he knew the situation, but he had a brou'd smile, and ho got away with his stunt happily and people liked him. I heard him say afterwards that ami!c3 were catching, and tho way to got the audience in a goqd humor was to be full of smiles yourself, That fs true. You oan laugh a man out of moro bad notions than you can over bound out of him, and a good laugh is worth as much in a debnto or case at law as n good argument. "It is easy enough to be pleasant Whon life flows on liko u song, But tho irian( worth while Is tho man with a smile When everything goes dead wrong." Just learn to laugh. "Laugh od tho world laughs with you, w6op and you weep along," Select Seed Pot aloes In the Field This 1'all. Tho Department of Horticulture, Nebraska Agricultural College, rec ommends hill selection of seed pota toes In tho early fall as the host method for growers in western Ne braska. Extensive experimental stu dies and practical applications show that this is the best means of con- irolling some diseases, of increasing tho yield and Improving the Quality of tno potatoes, The experiments carried on havo shown that In uomo fields of potatoua thero are hills pro ducing less than at tho rato of 30 bushels to tho acre under dry land conditions while other hill produco at tho rato of 300 bushels or more nor acre. The following years tho low yielding hills continued to bo low yielding and the high yielding ones, remained high yielding. Potatoes yield in proportion to tho yield of tho hill in which they were produced. All potatoes from, the same h,U) arc of equal valuo for aecd tvurposos re gardless of tholr si?.

Homo Demonstration Notes Miss Floronco Atwood Homo Demonstration Agent Certain species of ants aro often found a nuUanco to fall flowers. At present the most complaints seem to bo with tho asters. A simple means of destroying such ants is to spray tho plants with koro seno emulsion or with a very strong soap wash, prepared by dissolving any common laundry soap in water at the rato of from half u pound to a pound of soap to tho gallon of water. When the ants appear in colonies, an ofTectivo control method is to in ject into tho nest n quantity of di sulphid of carbon. This can bo conveniently applied with nn oil can or small syringe. Tho amount of tho chemical to bo used will vary from half an ounce for a very tiny nest to 2 or 3 ounces, depending on tho size of tho nest. Aftor injection of tho disulphid of carbon the en trance opening should bo closed by prcssuro of the foot to retain tho disulphid which will then penetrate b)"v1 ' throughout tho underground cliai h of tho nest and kill the In ma' . Tho efficiency of this rem edy is increased by covering tho nest immediately aftor tho injection with a wot blanket to botttr retain fumes Disulphid of carbon should bo kept away from fire as tho fumes ore in flammable. GRAPE CONSERVE. Squeeze tho pulp from tho grapes and cook until tho seeds loosen, then strain. Chop tho skins and put into tho juice. Measuro this and add an equal amount of sugar. Cook until thick.
