THE FARMER BOY
L
The Farmer Who Gives His Boy
Saturday Aftornoon to Play Ball
Is Doing the Proper Caper.
Spring lias como; and I he robin
jings in Hi'! hedgerow and I lie
cricket will In- chirping al night
ami Hie fanner will rise up early
ami go furl li to do half a day's
work before sunrise. Also, the
base, ball boys from all over the
country are rounding into shape
for the thousands of diamond
battle which will be stayed this
summer.
Base ball to I be city dweller
means a game which he noes to
see from a comfortable shady seal
alxmt the middle of the afternoon,
to be enjoyed by "cussing Ibe um
pire," drinkiiiK pop, etc.. Hut In
the country boy base ball means
a Saturday afternoon change from
the bard grind of the week, some
thing to look forward to which
makes Hie rest of the days worth
while living, lie may long now
ami then to net away to the city
ami watch Ins spoiling page
favorites in action, bul his real
idea of base ball is of a game
li in own in which tie will nave an
equal chance willi the rest for 111
coveted applause.
The fanner who does not
recognize the value of base ball
to the boys on bis farm is hardly
to be called a progressive farmer
today, lie is not realizing that
his boys need some time to enjoy
themselves and get very little o
it when they are on the farm dur
inc the summer mouths. If he
will just try the experiment o
letting them have the Saturday
afternoons Ihey covet for base
ball playing, he will be surprised
to note the added interest they
will display during the rest of the
week.
It is the farmer boy who worked
through every Saturday afternoon
while his companions were out
playing ball who is eager to leave
the. farm and go to the city, where
there is "more doing" and more
chance to enjoy it. If your boy
has been restless on the farm and
did not seem to take an Interest
in slaying there, just suggest to
him thai you will be willing lo
have him play ball Saturday aft
ernoons this summer, just so the
work is kept up around the farm
in Ihe meantime. See if next fall
you don't agree with us that base
hall means more to the boy on the
farm, and to thy boy's father also,
lhat you had over even imagined.

it hard to expeel anyone to travel
over, greatly retards the residents
from the east, side of I be river
coming here, as lliey cannot ai
ford to drive over here ami break
up their vehicles in trying lo get
over the ground ami poorly con
ditioned roads. The travel from
Ibis seel ion has been grow ing
larger each year and the people
of Mills county would be glad of
Ihe opportunity to come over here
if Ihe proper means of travel can
be arranged for. Last season Ihe
commissioners placed Ihe road in
very good condition to Ibe ferry,
ami il would only require a lillle
expenditure of money and labor
lo make if an elegant road, and

back by Ibe fad that the roads
werei n such dangerous shape for

BOAT ENROUIE FROM "
NEBRASKA CITY TO OMAHA
A large sand boal en route from
Nebraska City to nmaha, was tied
up here over Saturday night, near
Ihe bridge, leaving yesterday fore
noon to resume its journey up the
river. The boat was of large si.e
ami carried a powerful gasoline
engine, which is used to produce
Ihe motive power to run tin1 boat,
as well as Ihe sand pumps. The
boal made good progress out of
here, notwithstanding I bey were
forced lo go up against the main
current of the river, owing to the
fact that the pilot was not ac
quainted with this part of Ihe
river and they were afraid of get
ling stranded on some of the
numerous sandbars that infest
this part of the river, and in fact
all the way from Kansas City to
Sioux City.

trouble of the lungs. The wisest
thing to do when you have a cold
that troubles you is to get a bot

You will get relief from the first
dose, and finally the cough will
disappear. 0. II. Brown, of Mus
cadine, Ala., writes: "My wife was
down in bed with an obstinate
cough, and I honestly believe bad
it not been for Dr. King New Dis
