No one likes to farm a field which
is full of point rows yet ditches which
cannot bo crossed with machinery
have a way of running zig zag while
thoy grow deeper from year to year.
Some of theso young valleys have
grown too deep to be stopped with
ordinary .methods such as better culti
vation, brush dams and piles of straw.
Tho soil saving dam has proven to bo
tho solution in cases whoro tho water

under tho dam just as a culvort is
placed under tho road but this tube
turns up vertically on tho up stream

tho dam anC is ompoundod above It
until It reaches a sufficient dopth
to run away through tho tubo. Tho
sodlmont is dropped nboro tho dam
because tho current Is chocked and
each flood bringing down its load,
gradually fills tho ravlno. It is always
well to build tho dam higher than tho

Collogo will gladly furnish furthor do-

Ask the practical horticulturist
whon to pruno fruit trees and ho will
probably answer with anothor quest
ion, "Who wants to know?" It it is
tho owner of a largo orchard who
asks tho question the answer would
probably be, "From now until spray
ing time boglns which is usually the
latter part of April." For tho pruning
of a' ton aero orchard would take
pret,ty closo to a month if it were
possible to work 10 hours every day.
If it is tho owner of a small farm
orchard who wants to know it might
bo, "Any time when your knifo is
sharpened and you aro so inclined."
But if it is tho owner of a few trees
bo they shado trees or fruit trees who
is always anxious to do the best pos
sible for his trees the answer- would
bo "Just iboforo tho sap rises, from the
middle of March to tho middle of
April." Wounds made at this time
begin healing as Boon as tho sap bo
gins to flow whoroas wounds made
earlier, say In Docember and Jan
uary start healing sovoral weeks later
bocause tho cold drying winds have
killed a few exposed layers of colla
in tho cambium or growing tissues
The important thing about pruning
is not bo much tho timo at which it
Is dono as is tho manner in which it
Is dono, say tho horticultural special
ists In the University of Nobraska
Agricultural Collogo. It in taking off
an objectionable limb the wound is
just about as well If made In Decem
ber as it It were made in tho early
part of April. But If a branch, is re
moved having a two Inch stub the
chances are that If will not heal over
whetheV made in December or in
April.

THE OUTGOING AND HOME

Did you ever watch pigeons cir
culating about tho pigeon house, and
listen to their cooing heforo thoy set

in and out of tho pigeons suggests
"tho glad outgoing, sweot homccom
Ing' of childhood, around tho moth
er's knee. Froobel recognized in this
scene a symbol of life, a lesson for
mothers, which wo can not study too
faithfully.
Tho "outgoing" und tho "homecom
ing" thoro Is a world of meaning In
each word. Do you send your child
out each day, to school or to play,
happily, trustingly, lovingly? Is ho
glad to go, but gladder still to re
turn? What sort of a homecoming
does ho havo? Aren't mothers apt to
make that homecoming full of scold
ings for tardiness, or nagging ovor
tablo deportment, or rushing tho
children off to bed so wo can have
tho evening to ourselves? Thoao
things seem of small importance, but
wouldnt it bo of moro lasting valuo
to us and to our children if, instead,
wo made of that homecoming a happy
summary of tho day'B affairs?
There is no child- who Is not glad
to tell what ho has been doing all
day.i If ho has beon at school thoro
aro often little difficulties, little vex
ations that tho teacher has not bad
tlmo to satisfactorily explain or
smooth out. A word or two from
mother may mako It all cloar and
right. And It ho has been at play
thoro will bo so many things to toll.
It is whllo out at play that tho child
becomes acquainted with tho faBcinat
ing realm of out-of-doors. Flowers,
birds, trees, bees and butterflies, he
may become cloBor acquainted with
thorn all through tho ro-tolllng of his

ho be moro interested in insoct Hfo if

faction in the fields if he know that
thoro woro weodB that ato bugs and
eomo that lived on other plants, like
selfish folks? And wouldn't you liko
to have him so form tho habit of toll

said among othor things: "No man

unless ho rondors to tho community
an adequato sorvlco for tho privilege
of living in it." And that mlnistor
summed up In about twonty-flvo
words tho full meaning of good cit
izenship. For you will valuo your
cltlzonship all tho moro If you will
think of It aa less a right than a
privilege for which you mUBt pay

STORIES OF THE EARLY
HISTORY OF LINCOLN
COUNTY
Of courso tho first anyono know o'f
Lincoln County Is not recorded In his
tory. When Columbus discovered
America tho Indians were in complete
control of this part of tho country,
It romninml In their nnHSftfisInn for
ni.mit thr-nn i.i,n,irn.i vA,.a (hnnfin. '
about throo hundred years thereafter..
Then tho ownership of tho Indians
was questioned by both Franco and
England. Franco said that hor ox -
plorers had penetrated tho vast for-
csts, plains and waterways to tho
west of tho Mississippi. In Franco tho
wholo country was declared to bo
under he? protection nnd subject to
. . . . - .
tho king. Iho king of Englnnd on
tho othor hand, gave charter's to his
subjects for tractB of land to oxtond
from tho Atlantic to tho Pacific. Ills -
torlnns ot today are prono to uward
tho titlo to tho French bocauso her
citizens actually explored It whllo t':o
English only claimed it without any
of tho people being on tho ground
Tho French made friends with the
Indians and it is probable that for
two hundred years or moro tho only
flag that would havo boon recognized
in tills part of tho country was that
ot France. But this ownership was
not acknowledged by England and the
othor countries.
