As there is a tendency do wn ward
in all products it will pay you to
watch the changes in the prices of
> Groceries. There has been at least
a 10 per cent decline since the first
of the year. Are you getting the
| benefit, or is the man that sells you
the goods making two profits?
Not only in groceries will you find
i this, but in all lines through the store.
Our policy, as it has been for the
last twenty-five years, is to be as
careful of our customer’s interests
| as of our own, and we find it to be
the most profitable. This has been
proven beyond a question to our old
customers who have been with us

We are having a very fair run of
cattle thus far this week with a mod
erately active market with values ful
ly steady with the close of last week.
There seems to be a broad demand for
butcher stock and (canners with the
supply readily picked up. There is a
limited supply of Stockers and feeders
aDd the offerings change hands at
steady to strong prices.
We quote:
Fair to choice beeves. 5.65(a) 6.35
Others down to. 5 00
Uomfedlcows and heifers up to 6.50
Fair to good . 4.25(a) 4.75
canners and cutters. 3 25(a) 3.75
Veal calves. 4.00(a? 8 00

Good to choice feeders. 5.00(«> 6-85
Others down to. 4.25
Stock heifers. 3 75(a) 4.50
Hog receipts at western markets
have been rather lighter than expect
ed thus far this week with the result
that prices have firmed up slightly.
Bulk 86 80 to 86.90 top $7.00.
The sheep trade seems to have a
more (promised; tone. Becepts are
running rather light and all kinds of
stock sell freely at a fair advance.
Educational Notes.

School district No. 157 recently
built a new $500.00 school house and
pupils and teacher commenced work
in the new building in December.
This district is to be congratulated
upon their progressive work.
Friday February 10, the pupils of
districts Nos. 93 and 114 held a spelling
contest. District 93 won 8 to 0. The
return contest will be held soon.
Myrtle Hunt teaches in 93 and Maggie
Murray in 114. This is a move in the
right direction and might be of great
help if more schools would have con
tests.
District No. 4 at Dorsey held a so
cial last week. The proceeds were
*41.15 with which they purchased
eighty-seven new text books, a set of
wall maps and a “Twentieth Century’
dictionary. This district is in debt
and no doubt appreciate the efforts
of eheir teacher, Elmer Rogers, to
help them.
A very Interesting and instructive
teachre’s association was held at
Ewing February 25 1911.
Josephine Sanders of Ewing held a
model reading class at the morning
session which was full of excellent
suggestions of practical worth to all.
Every rural teacher in the county ,
should have beard this class.
At the afternoon session Bertha ,
Watson of O’Neill gave a paper on
“Hygiene and Sanitation in the Rur
al School" Miss Watson’s paper con
tained many helpful devices which
could be used in all rural schools.
Bessie Zink of Atkinson and Prin. J.
P. Cunningham of Inman gave splen
did papers on “Moral Training in the
Public School.” The general discuss
ion on these papers were especially
helpful.
Prln. C. G. Hutchins of Ewing gave
a paper on “Some of the Defects of the
Country Pupils on entering the Grad
ed School and How to Remedy Them”.
Mr. Hutchins emphasized the fact
that many of the defects are caused
by short terms of school, changes of
teachers, etc. among our rural schools.
Following the Course of Study closely
was one of his remedies. Supt. C. A.
Gorby of O’Neill and Elizabeth Eg
gleson of Ewing discussdd this paper
and they aroused much interest.
Clara Kohler of Page read a paper on
“How to make History interesting.”
Many points of protit and interest
