Ex. How 1 o Succeed In Life. Men who make a success of life have a way of letting young men und boys know of it that is very commendable. , Andrew Carnegie has laid down a few rules which contain good ad vice , and might be read with profit 1. Never enter a barroora , nor lei the contents of a barroom enter you. 2. Do not use tobacco. 3. Concentrate. Having en- ' tered upon a certain line of work , continue and combine upon that line. i ± . Do not shirk ; rather go be- , yond your task. Do not let any young man th'.nk he has perform ed his full duty when he has per formed the work assigned him. A : mn will never ri < e if he acts thus. Promotion comes from exceptional work. A man must learn where his employees interest lie ; and push for these. The young man who does this is the young m-m whom Capital n\juN for a partner and son in-law. He is the young ma'n who , by and by , reaches the head of the firm. i 5. Save a litile always. What ever be. your wages , lay by some thing from them. 6. Never speculate. Never buy.stocks or grain on margin. 7. Never indorse. When you enter on business for yourself , never indorse for others. It is dishonest. All your resources and all your credit are the sacred prop erty of the men who have trusted you. If you wish to help another , iiive him all the cash you can spare. Never indorse ; it is dishonest. Ho ! Spring Times-Herald. A New Movement , Somers , la. , Feb. 22 , 1905. To The Editor : The farmers of Calhoun and Webster counties , of Iowa , held a ' meeting at Somers , Iowa , the af- , tcrnoon of Feb. 22 , for the pur- j pose of org mixing themselves in to a farmers' federation for mutual | strength and benefit. Our newly formed association declares that every enterprise of any importance ' in the business world exceptfarm ing is concentrated into a combine or trust ; that if the ten million farmers of this country can be or ganized or joined together into a federation , working as a unit , they will possess a power and a force gainst which nothing can prevail , nnd can then , and then only sue- ! Rcssfully combat the adverse in- ; Huences which are combined a- ! gainst them. Producersxhave no voice in de termining the price they shall re ceive for their products , and must accept the price ollered at their local station or haul their grain jack hojne , while per contra , they lave to pay the other man's price for what they buy , or go without. r ie farmer begins to think it a p tor rule which does not work 3oih ways , and he hopes through K'a HIizaiion to be able to have 5ome voice in managing his © wn It is believrrl that the 10',0t0j000 ) ! 'ar.iers of the United States can J H ; successfully organized , begin- nug in the townships1 , whidj si-4 of 30 seetion ' ' land , or 0 school districts of W quarter sec tions each. It should be possible co thoroughly orgjinize a township in a week. Organize all townships in a county , joining them together in counties , counties into states , states into a national organization ; , then let farmers use their most ef fective weapon , ' the ballot , for sending representatives to their legislatures and to the national body pledged to see that farmers receive their just dues , the same as every other business enterprise receives , and the 50,000,000 farm ers of the United States , who are either directly or indirectly con nected with agriculture will re ceive what they are justly entitled to , that is equal rights , and the same treatment that any one con nected with any other business re ceives. That is all the farmer asks for , but ask for it he does in a stentorian voice , and he is going to be heard throughout the length and breadth of this land. He be lieves that there is a dawn of a new era for the farmer , and he is going to look out for the farmer in the future , first , last , and all the time. The meeting was addressed by II. H. Carr , of Chicago , common ly known as "The Farmers' Friend.5' Great enthusiasm was manifested throughout by every one present. A farmers' organ ization was accomplished hereand it is believed that the little leaven planted in this "nock of the woods" will take root and continue to spread until in time it will perme ate every state , county , township and school district throughout the United States. W. II. LOTUPEICII , Pres. T. F. MOORE , Sec'y. 3Vul > 7-ooi Quill * . David' Hamar finished shucking corn last week. The warm weather is appreciat ed by the domestic animals.

It made a tremend- J ous crashing nnd roaring as it went grinding down to the Missouri. I Theo Tillson is kept busy grind- j ing feed nnd meal. This cold j winter has been too rough for Mr. Till < on. He is studying literature from "Ole Virginny" now. Frank Lowis took Geo. Hancock to the Fo-t doctor lat week.

There will be a good program ar ranged for the occasion , consisting of dialogues , recitations , stump speeches and some good singing. We will also announce freeice cream , of course the weather per mitting. We will ask that all of the young ladies bring a nice cake to go with the ice cream , and we'll also announce that there will be no money making schemes in con nection with this entertainment , so come out and have a good time.
