A VIOLATION OF THE LAW There has been a great improvement in the behavior on the streets of Lyons and on the highways around, in the past two or three months, for which concltion the peop’e of the city are very grateful. But there is still one menace, among others perhaps, right UNDER OUR NOSES that is very cetrimental to the morals of our town This menace is one whose influence destroys the happin ess of home life, BREAKS DOWN THE MORALS OF THE YOUTH OF OUR TOWN, spoils the sacradneas of love, makes deceivors of men and often times renders one PENNILESS while another is» made FAT, FINANCIALLY, t>y the gain. This ceteriorating amusement is being carried on in PUBLIC PLACES—places so public that not only those who participate know the rendezvous, but by those who do not indulge. It is not necessray to cal'! officials into consultation concerning this matter as it has become such a periodical happening and the place of meeting is so well advertised because of the location of the rendezvous, and because of the fact that it is necessary to have light, since this practice is carried on at night, (as well as on Sunday afternoon), which light shows forth as a toll tale, BE SPEAKING CRIME FROM THE WINDOWS OF A BUILD ING CONSTRUCTED FOR THE PURPOSE OF QUELL ING SUCH. How long will this condition exist UNMOLESTED? X LOOKIN’:: IN THE FUTURE At the time of the year when "The frost is on the pumpkin, and the fodder in the shock”, and the turkey’s In his death pen, counting his hours by the clock, —for Thanksgiving, we look a little in the future and see, ap proaching, Santa Clause time. And then on a little far ther it seems that we can see the bent, grey-haired figure of 1022 as he hobbles out of sight. On realizing the near ness of the enc of 1922, let us look back for a moment and meditate over the number o f instances in which we have been the recipient of something good and at the same time we will review our mistakes along the way, then let’s de rive some plan by which we can make these become steps to something greater.

In some instances the seed are more evenly distributed. They are plantec. at a uniform depth where moisture conditions are likely to be more l favorable and germination much better. And wheat seed i ec. with the drill is less likely to suffer from winter-killing. While the drill is an important factor in securing a better stand of wheat and carrying it through the winter, it is practically a necessity in the production of fall oats. Over much of the South it Is unsafe to sow fall oats broad least. Test after test conducted by the experiment stations 1 have shown heavy or total loss of stands of oats sowed broadcast, while those sowed with the grain drill in the same field on the same day stood the same winter freezes with little or no less stand. Even in these sections of the Lower South where drilling of oats is not absolutely ne cessary It will pay in the same way that it pays with wheat. Before the grain drill came into general use, farmers in some sections of the South began to plant oats in deep furows to escape the danger of winter-killing. This j method proved very effective. But with the one-horse im- I plements generally used, this method is too slow. It is coubtful if this deep furrow method is any more effective anywhere than seeding with the regular grain drill pro vided the sowing is done in proper season. It certainly is not more effective in most sections. If sowing ia delay ed so late that the young plants do not have time to get well established before freezing weather, the deeper fur rows* might be of some advantage. At any rate, it may well be said that sowing by the broadcast method is not safe except in the very lower portion of the South. Those who do not have grain l drills and cannot secure the use of them, had better use the open furrow method of seeding oats where there is danger of winter-killing.—The Pro gressive Farmer. X Dll) YOU EVER STOP TO THI.NK — THAT what kind of a citizen are you, are you an asset to your city, or a liability? THAT after all, a city is nothing more or less than an aggregation of citizens, some good, some bad, and some indifferent. That its civic life will be no higher than the average of ; ts, citizens. That among the greatest assets a city should have, are—cleanliness, beauty, enterprise, far-sightecness and a Fipirit to do greater things.
