"Yellow Journalism" The Daily Drovers Journal-Stockman cf South Omaha had the follow ing in Its last Friday's is.iue in re gard to newspapers that sacrifice i veracity co a eieniie i u ne mubuciiui- al: Now it appears that the lc.ssof life in the Ohio floods has been greatly exaggerated by the newspapers and while It has been an appalling ca tastrophe the situation Is not n.-arlv so bad as painted. People seem to like exaggerated statements and lib erally patronize the papers (hat make a practice of playing upon the sensations so that enterprising and unscrupulous publishers try to make everything they print as lurid and sensational as possible with little or no regard for the truth. Accord ing to the Dearer nutian Omaha was practically wiped off the map In last Sunday evening's storm, thous ands of lives were lost and what property was left by the storm was being destroyed by the flames. In fact the situation In Denver' Is bad that the papers in thet city cannot b.e believed even undre ordi nary circumstances and n society has been organized there to check ultra sensational Journalism. The mem hers r.f the society are pledged to absolutely refuse to subscribe or in any way patronize these yellow jour nals that are a disgrace to the pro fession.

So long as they continue to read them under pretext of curlouslty or otherwise they are helping to create a demand for them and a little more discrim ination on the part of the public would have a very decided influence In toning down these lurid and un reliable papers and make them more readable as well as more trustwor thy.

Advt. 17tf-2033 SOCIETY Artesian Well Town of Edgemont enthusiastic overt New Well, described in last Issue of The Herald The town of Edgemont Is now en- Joying the benefits of a hot water Mirsian well. The following, clipped from the last issue of The Edgemont Express will give our readers an I dea of what a well of this kind will mean to a town. Edgemont' deep well Is finally ac cepted and capped ready for use by the city. This little sentene says a lot and yet It does not :preas half the good this well can do, or the self sacrifice of our public-spirited citizens In subscribing their nu n ey to the tune or 127,000. This mon ey has been held In trust by our people, not knowing when the call would be mude for It. What sublime trust in the success of the well. And where Is there a city that will beat It? To put up the money to go Into the earth 298;i feet to get water for the town. These gentlemen are worthy of a place In the hall of fame. The flow of water struck a week ago last Saturday was followed by others until Wednesday night the town was uroused by the siren whis tle at the well notifying the people that the big flow had been struck. The well house was soon crowded and everybody was congratulating his neighbor. We are now in possession of a well that will furnish this town with water for Borne time to come. The water Is pure and soft and the house wives arc already wishing for ii I i their homes. There Is water for a big plunge b.i h after the wants o; the people have bt en Msppittd, Thi would bring outside money to th town In large quantities and he ; great drawing aid. The water, af ter being used in the plunge, could hi utilized i i th irriKation of liiwi . etc., and thus make Edge uoni a city of shade trees. The medicinal cjualitiis of the wa tt r would help in a sanitarium aud we understand that plans are now in the formative stage. The heat of the water 128 degrees, will make tt possible for the residences to be heated, making a great saving in coal and other fuel. Cheap water will bring people to the town to live and It should not be loi:g until Edgetrrnt Is the home r.f w. althy people. With the resources that are all over and around the town in the line of building material the city should be s place of stone blocks, brick residences and cement walks. And all these would mean that busi ness would be successful and profi table and our mer-hants would be able to branch ou .n lines hitherto impossible. Wo could go on for col urns telling what this well means for Edgemont. but Mill sum it up saying that It Is the greatest thing that has happened to her since she became a town. TELL THE WORLD ABOUT IT ' If you have unythiug to sell Tell the world about It. Want to boost an article? Tell the world about It. Being Just a violet By a stone is pretty, yet Dividends it will not get -Tell the world about It! If you like the place you dwell Tell the world about it. Like to see it doing well?

Advt. 2032-17-lt Agriculture in the Country School Advocating that the boys and girls stay on the rami, and at the same time teaching city subjects in th rural schools, la contradictory. If the boys and girls are taught one thing, they cannot be expected to do something else, even if they are advised to. A few years ago the question was asked the boys and girls In thirty-four schools In Wright County, Iowa "What do you want to do?" Of the 164 boys. 157 want ed to leave the farm and 13 of the 174 girls wanted to do likewise. After agriculture and home economics bad been taught for three years the same question was asked in the same schools. This time 162 of the 174 boys and 161 of the 178 girls to whom the question was submitted wanted to stay on the farm. This changing an almost unanimous desire of leav ing the farm to an almost unanimous desire of staying on the farm seems miraculous; yet It was done through making a little change In the course of study. It la simple, however, for boys and girls will want to do the things that they have been taught how to do. Their Interest will be developed In the things they ar taught. They will see more in them than In things they know less about. Again, agriculture and home econom Irs are the things that boys and girls are the most interested In to begin with. They live In an agricultural and home economics laboratory. Tbs knowledge that they have when they come to erhool la on these two sub jects so that education to be most. efreetlve must begin with the -vlnld reu s knowledge, ami not as Profes sor Minard says-" Take them from wheie the-y aren't to where they don't want to go." That Is what it Is that makes the school Irksome ami that makes the boys, especially, want to leave schools. The way m keep the boys on the farm is to, tench them about th? things thef have to deal with. If It Is desired to have them Ic . the farm, then keep ngricultuiv and hern;, ejonara Irs cut cf the cairse of study. The will (o do springs from the' knowledge that om can do. One will like to do what he can do well. Do ing work 'hat on: :'o:ra't ur.4?rstand Is drudge y. Most bciys most enter productive v v1:. If they are not educated for it thin it will b: drud gery.
