When telephones get out of order in the country long trips are often necessary to make repairs. Oftimcs threshing machines and haystackers tear down wires, and road grading machines make it necessary to reset poles. Trees along the lines also have to be trimmed away from the wires. Then, too, long country lines are damaged more by roadside fires, lightning, winds and sleet storms than are short town lines. These are some of the things that cause the furnishing of telephone service in the country to be very expensive. Northwestern B '. Tg& OUR EXCHANGES homestead in Dixon county April 18G9.

Germnny.'' Of course, this is not true. Every speech the President mude during the first two years of the war belies the Tumulty statement. And most conclusive of all the proofs of the undependability of Mr. Wilson's sec retary as a historian on this point is the speech the President made before the Senate in January, 1917, on "Pence Without Victory." At hat time he said: "The characteristics of a peace wbrth securing imply, first of all, that it must be n peace without vic tory. Victory would meun peace forced upon the loser, a victors 'terms imposed upon the vanquishcu; sentment, a bitter memory, upon which terms of peace would rest not permanently, but only as upon quick sands." This was one of the many utter ances of the executive whom Joe Tu multy now. describes as a man "who had but the one thought to throw all the nation's energies into the scale for tho defeat of Germany" two years before-America entered tho conflict!' If it were possible for the Wilson administration to bo worse upoligizcd for, Joe probably would attempt tho task. But ho is undoubtedly doing as bad a job already as could even be imnglned. Dozen of Wilson's stntemonts with in a year before wo entered the war, may be quoted to show the President was contending that we did not know cvon what the war was about nnd were not concerned. Mr. Wilson, from the sinking of the Lusitni-ia, fed this country opiates and "was re elected on a slogan of keeping us out of war. St. Louis Time? Co-operative Bull Associations "Swat the scrub sire!" We hear that slogan on every turn. Theccruo bull must go! But how shall wo go about it? Not every farmer h-s the capitnl to invest in a purebred hull. As a solution for thin problem the state Agricultural College; suggests organizing co-operatlvo bu 1 "ssorh tions. There would bo fewer bulls to be fed and cared for. Each herd in an association would have uece?s to a better bull than if tho owners kept separate sires for their herds, and nt n very nominal coat to each member. Through its extension spe cialists and County Agents the Col lege will be glad to assist in organ izing such associations and will be glad to answer any questions.

Miss Stanley says: "He hai achieved success who has lived well, laughed often and loved much; who has gained the respect of intelligent men, the trust of pure women and the love of little children; who has filled his niche and accomplished hiHj task; who has left the world better, thnn he found it, whether by nn Ini-' proved peppy, n perfect poem, or n rescued soul; who hns never lacked appreciation of earth's heauty or' failed to express it; who has looked' for the best in others and given them ' the best he hnd; whose life was an inspiration, his memory a benedic tion."
