AUTO TURNS TURTLE. Tuesday evening Clarence Arnett 'tarted out to give some boys a ride in his new Dodge car. Ben Zents was driving and doing a little speeding. He ’ried to turn the corner near the Wni. Hancock place while going at a prett> good pace and the car turned com pletely over twice. Clarence Arnett was badly hurt, receiving two severe cuts on the leg. He was the only one hurt anti there was six in the car at the time. The car was badly damaged. The boys consider themselves very fortu nate that the accident was not more serious and that no more of them were hurt. It was a close call and shows that you can not turn corners when the car is going 35 to 40 miles an hour. A little ad in The Northwestern will always bring results.

SWANSON, Druggist \ 1111111111111 u m, FLAG ETIQUETTE It should not be raised before sun rise and should be lowered at sunset. It is a mark of disrespect to permit it to fly throughout the night. It should be raised to the full peak unless it is displayed at half staff as a sign of mourning. It should not be permitted to drag on the ground or be stood or walked or sat on. In flying, the field should never be down, except as a sign of distress and call for help. It is customary to take in large flags and regular standards in stormy weather and use in their place small storm flags. The flag should not be permitted to fly where it will strike against any object except its own pole, and if it becomes entangled with its pole it should be freed. It should not be used for any pur pose except for patriotic display. It should never be used as a covering for anything else, except a coffin, an alter, etc. It should never be used as a table cloth on which things are served or any like use. No utilitar ian purpose whatever should be served by it. In decoration on walls, etc., the blue field should be the top and to the north or east. Saluting the flag should be done whenever it is carried past in formal procession, or in passing an official flage in a military camp or post. It may be done at any other time the inclination prompts. In using bunting as a decoration the red c olor should come first, at the top when hortizontal and at the left when perpendicular. The spirit of the whole affair is. that the flag is the symbol of a great nation, and to display it is to give ex pression of loyalty. Citizens should display it for no other purpose. Citi zens of other countries may display it as a token or respect. A HOODOO MONTH. It begins to appear that the month of April will be as significant to the United States as the month of March to the Kaisers. Czars, and other crowned heads. Every war the United States has ever engaged in was start ed in April. The revolutionary war began in April, 1775. The embargo which brought about the war of 1812 was enacted in April ,i812. The hos tilities of both Mexican tangles took place in April. Fort Sumpter was fired upon and captured in the month of April, 1861, and the war of the re bellion was under way. McKinley declared war on Spain in April, 1898. And now President Wilson and con gress has declared war on Germany in April.—Ex. USE OF RAPE The farmer w-ho is planning to feed his hogs in dry lot without supple mental forage will find that he can reduce production costs by the use of rape pasture, say animal husbandry experts at the agricultural college. Rape will make more hog pasture than any other crop in use in eastern or central Nebraska. If seeded by May 1, it will be ready to pasure by June 15 or earlier. As many as 40 shotes may be carried on a single acre when fed grain in addition. Rape stands more abuse than any other pasture, it can be grown quick ly, and a good stand can be secured without difficulty. Six to eight pounds of seed arc sown per acre. Seed now costs 10 to 14 qents per pound.
