I OR Tin: HOYS.
Here is something for the boys to
read. The Democrat would not preach
at the boys or girls too much. In many
cases preaching overdone makes them
gospel hardened. But here is some
thing from th<- Milwaukee Journal that
we urge them to read. They will get a
great deal more good out of it than they
will got out of the sporting page in the
Sunday newspaper. The Journal says:
“At this time of the year there are
some half million American boys and
their parents are debating the question
as to whether to go back t<> school this
fall or to cut loose from boyhood and
start out in the great world with a job.
“ft is a big question for the boy.
“It is a big question for the parents.
“The day the boy goes to school the
mother loses her baby.
“The day the boy leaves school and
goes to work, the mother loses her child.
“The day the boy leaves school be
hind his whole relation to his family
and to the world changes. He begins a
fight that he will have to wage all his
life the tight fbr a job.
“There are certain things that school
will do for a boy and there are other
things that no school or college can do.
In the first place it is’nt the arith
metic, nor the geography, nor the spel
ling, nor Latin, nor geometry that the
boy “learns” in school that does the
real good.
“The only thing that school can do
for a doy is to teach him first the habit
of disclipine and of apportioning his
days and hours with intelligent relation
to the tasks he must perform, and
second it will teach him to learn. That
He bool discipline will teach him how to
use that wonderful machine which is
called the brain. All the definitions
and dates and conjugations that he may
stull into bis skull will be useless unless
la- shall learn how to use bis brain- his
mind as a skilled workman uses bis
hands on bis tools.
“If the boy wants to go back to
school in order that be may wear a
peanut cap on the back of bis head and
be free to bang around street corners
after school then school won’t help
him much, but by the same token a job
wouldn't help him a great deal, either.
“If a boy wants to quit school and
gel a jolt HO that he can be “indepen
dent"' of bis parents, stay out nights
and have money for pool, beer and
theatre, then the job won't do him
much good, and keeping him in school
won t help him much either.
• It’s up to the boy.
“If be goes to school to dodge work
tlien success will dodge him all the
days of bis life. If he goes to work to
dodge study and discipline then he will
probably never be much more than a
figure in census and police statistics and
will end amounting to no more and
probably less than he does now.
“But a boy can leave school and go to
work and yei have all the benefits of
schooling. He can study and teach his
brain to think and to learn, and can
grow, mentally, as fast out of school as
can in if he will.
“All things being equal a boy should
go to school as long as his parents can
afford to send him. This is on flit*
theory that he can be taught by experts
how to use his brain better than he can
teach himself. Also an education will
probably permit him to start a little
higher in the world of work than he
can without it. But schooling won't
boost any boy to the top of the ladder,
nor it wont keep him from slipping
Pack. It. won't furnish him cither
common sense or honest ambition.
“And lack of schooling won't keep
any boy hack if has within him and
keeps nourished the two (dements of
common sense and honest ambition.
•So the answer to the problem is
this;
“It isn't up to the school;
It isn't up to the job:
“It’s up to the boy whether he will
be a success or a failure.

“ON THE SWEET GRASS.’’
A Farm and Home on Irrigated
Lands in Sweet Grass County,
Montana.
On the 3d of August I went west on
a trip to Montana. My object in going
west was to look up a favorable place
and conditions for a home. I investiga
ted the methods of dry land farming
and what is known as farming by irri -
gation: would say that in the state of
Montana that preponderenee of evidence
is in favor of farming by irrigation. It
means larger yields per acre and a sure
crop every year.
While at Helena I met Mr. James
Glass, vice-president of the Glass Bros.
Land company. Their principal office
is at Big Timber. Sweet Grass county.
Big Timber is the county seat and has a
population of 1300 and is located on the
Main line of the N. P. R. R. in the
Yellowstone Valley. The south line of
Sweet Grass county is within twelve
miles of the Yellowstone National Park,
the Wonderland of America.
At the invitation of Mr. Glass we
stepped into an automobile and started
out to investigate their lands and irri
gation project which lies north of Big
Timber. On the way we stopped at
several farms to inspect the growing
crops. I saw' one field of oats that
would be ready to cut within a week. It
was estimated to yield 100 bushels per
acre. The same field produced that
amount last year. I saw wheat that
would go 40 bushels per acre, fine
crops of other small grains and all
kinds of vegetables of the finest qual
ity. Alfalfa is the main hay crop and
will produce from I to 0 tons per acre
three cuttings.
We next proceeded to look over the
ditches, canals, and large reservoirs,
which wo found completed and ready
for the water. These reservoirs when
filled with water will look like lakes,
and will in the future afford opportu
nity for fishing and boating. The main
canals and ditches for conducting the
water to the lands show the surface soil
to be rich, and several feet deep; and
there is a clay gravel subsoil which will
afford excellent drainage. The water in
wells and springs is pure, soft, and the
very best, and the climate exceptionally
healthy.
The next important question is prices
and terms, which are as follows:
Ist. Irrigated land #50.00 per acre;
#5.00 per acre down, deferred payments
of 0 per cent. Balance on annual pay
ment, ten years’ time if desired. The
second year interest only. Tins gives
the settler a chance to complete his im
provements and pay for them.
3d. #50.00 is the price of irrigated
land only; that, is if you purchase HO
acres and if but 00 acres of it can be ir
rigated, the balance, —30 acres, can be
bought for dry land prices, and used for
dry land crops and pastures.
3d. #50.00 per acre buys the land
and a perpetual water right ; no more
charge for water, except small proper
tiimate cost of maintenance.
4th. Anyone who is dissatisfied after
the first year, and previous to the 3d
year, the Glass Brothers Land Com
pany will pay him back the money he
lias paid on the land, the cost of his
improvements and 0 per cent interest.
Is not this a fair proposition?
Man is a social being, and it is very
unpleasant for some to leave their rela
tives and friends and go out West
among strangers.
The best way I know of is for eight
or ten parties or more to go and select
their lands near together, and thus form
a neighborhood of friends who are all
well acquainted. lam willing to make
one of a such party, move West onto
this land and make a home for myself
and family; and considering that wheat

The-Mineral Point Real Hstate Agency has a great oppor
tunity to offer to parties who want a most excellent large
farm cheap.
Before returning to his home in Montana this week, Frank
Day placed with us for sale his great far.a of 293 acres. It
was formerly the John Little homestead and is well known
as one of the best farms in the rich agricultural town of
Wald wick.
There is a very large and fine house on the place and it
will make a grand farm for the fortunate purchaser.
The place will be sold cheap, as the owner is anxious to
realize on it, as he has rare opportunities for making invest
ment in growing, prosperous Montana, where he is a pioneer
settler. For price and term address

or barley will bring $23.00 to $30.00 per

to #40.00, sugar beets #75.00 to #IOO.OO,
potatoes #IOO,OO to #300.00, I see no
reason why a person could not buy SO
to 100 acres of this land, and pay for it
with all improvements in from four to
five years. He would then own a home
in a healthy climate, and on land that
would never wear out.
This land is just now being put on the
market, and if we act soon we have our
choice. Let me hear from you before

Or. Park hurst Thinks Many Per
sons Fail to Apprehend Their
Larger Duties.
“What is the matter with the
Churches 1 asks Theodore Dreiser,
Editor of the Delineator, and Or. Park
hurst answers ;
“Doctorinal formulas count very
much less with Christians than former
ly. Men who think carefully and feel
deeply discriminate much more sharply
than formerly between theology and
religion, between the part the intellect
plays and the part the heart and the
will play in Christianity.
“There is of course, an advantage in
brooding over the great doctrines of the
gospel; and it may be made auxiliary
to the life, but the invisible spirit of tin*
gospel will soak into the soul to a depth
impossible to any formulation of the
gospel’s meaning. These things lie out
too distinctly on the very face of
Christ’s teaching to excuse either those
in the Church or out of it for failing to
act on thi‘ basis of the view herewith
presented, save for the reason that a
degree of prominence, due to ecclesias
tical controversies, has been given to
the matter of the intellectual conception
of gospel truth, that has obscured the
more fundamental and fruitful signiti
cance of Christianity experienced as a
new life begun in the soul; a life that
leans toward the law laid down by (In*
Master; a life that has begun to learn
the lesson of love taught and exempli
tied by Him; and a life along the path
way of service over which He has gone
before.
“While,, then, it is not to be denied
that the Christian Church is the most
powerful organization anywhere for the
uplift of the race, its power would be
tremendously enhanced if church mem
bers would realize that church privi
leges are mated with church obliga
lions, and if they would not allow the
Church to be considered so close a
corporation as to exclude those who
ought properly to be in it, but who are
! at present kept out by barriers of mis
apprehension and tradation.”
