Watch the Daily Democrat ads. There are more sales approaching and the wise shoppers will take advantage ( of the pricesaving values. Shop in Decatur. —— Roads all are reported to be in good driving condition, and there is snow only in the far northwest part of the state. If you're planning a week-end trip, it is best to check with the police department. Someone there can get you road condition reports every place in the middlewest. ——o o More candidates are considering announcing their intentions of seeking offices. Most of them will file in the Democratic primary. No doubt Roland Miller, G.O.P. commissioner from the first district will seek a second term, but- so far there is very little talk about prospective G. O. P. candidates. This is usually true in Adams county which has been predominantly Democratic for years. o o The ad fakirs who appear on television shows are clever people. In their language they’ll stay just within the law in their claims on patent medicines, tooth paste, cosmetics and other wares. Even if it were legal for a newspaper to use such schemes, we don’t believe they would. Mos* newspapermen are more honorable than that and they have more scruples about the other fellow. There .is never a week that goes by that this paper and hundreds like it, refuse advertising which we do not believe to be fair and honest.

About next week Congress will warm up and the fireworks will start. Leaders of both parties won't pay too much heed to the President, because he cannot run for reelection and cannot pass out any length favors in the form of appointments. He will have to battle for everything he gets and then may not get it. o o Edward Gein, Wisconsin bachelor farmer who confessed to the murder of two women and the rifling of many graves has been sentenced to a Wisconsin insane hospital for criminals, with not much liklihood of ever being freed. The court held the ‘,‘mad farmer” to be insane and the decision robbed the state of a murder conviction. It was one of the nation's most dastardly series of crimes and has had physicians, courts and prosecutors puzzled. o o— — Congress is now in session and the present meeting might well be an historic event. We are entering the atomic and space age and need the best resources in the natioh to cope with the big head-start taken by Russia in science and space exploration. Our present Congressional leadership in both parties has proved to be weak, but it is quite possible that a new and strong leader will come out of this Congress to fit into a much needed spot of influence. This will take a man no doubt, who will place his country far above petty politics. It will take a leader who will not hold taking care of aging friends but who will call on the best resources and greatest minds we have.

Etic uette BY ROBERTA LKF Q. Would it be proper for the bride’s mother to wear a long dress at a morning wedding? A. If she wishes to do so, this is the one occasion when a long dress is properly worn in the morning. I am assuming, naturally, that the bride is wearing a long bridal dress with veil. Q. After "going steady with a boy for a year, we parted. Is it necessary that I return a watch that he gave to me for Christmas? A. Since This was not an engagement gift, it is not necessary to return it. Q. Should a couple make a newspaper announcement if their engagement is to be a long one? A. This is quite all right, with the inclusion of “no date has been set for the wedding.” Q. I’d like to give a “stork shower” for a friend. How long in advance of the party should I mail out my invitations? A. From one to two weeks prior to the party.

WHATIJIS HAPPENING There rias Peen no woman except their widowed mother on the ranch that the three O'Dare brothers work in wild Oklahoma Territory 01 the 1900 s. Although Cord the eldest rias been the ladies man. Luther the second brother is the first to be mar rying Cord/Dicked out the bride Edna Shore” and Luther courted nei by mail. When they meet Edna at Ponca City, where she is arriving from Chicago Smoke, the third broth er. Luther, and their .mother will see her tor the first time. Strong-willed Cord is nated m the region because of his and his refusal to share the O Dare ranch s water with drought-stricken farmers. Smoke is resentful of the dominance Cord exerts As the family arrives at Ponca City. Smoke continues the story. ... CHAPTER 3 ■' THE TRAFFIC was brisk, this being Saturday. Buggies were nosed tn along the nitch rails, spaced by saddle norses standing three-tooted, tails idly switching flies. 1 drove through the town to the railroad station sitting sunbleacned and lonely by the cat-tle-loading pens and freight shed. The tracks stretched away as *4r as the eye could see, reflecting the sun s smashing light. Pull ing in along the shady side, 1. dismounted and helped Ma down. Cord consulted the watch that had been Father's. “Time tor a glass ot beer at Lan ah an s. You stay with Ma, Smoke." “It's my place to stay,” Luthai said quick/y and dismounted. He handed the reins to me and 1 stepped into the saddle. When Cord turned toward the main drag,~TF sided him. We’ tied up before Lanahan's Saloon and Cord paused tor ms look up and down the street. He ducked under the nitch rail and I followed nun across the walk to Lanahan's broad porch. The louvered doors were slack and Cord took a look inside while his right hand brushed back the tail ot his coat, exposing the double-kction .44 in its swivel holster. Td alway wondered what made Cord do that, tor the day was nearly gone when a man carried a gun on his hip. And it was rarer still to see a holster all cut away or hung on a rivet But this was one of Cord O’Dare s UtUe quirks and after a while folks got used to seeing the gun and listening to Cord tell how he could knock the knot out ot a pine board at twenty five teet. Where Cord was concerned, you could count on one thing: he always did. what he said tied do, whether that was paying back money he’d borrowed or loosening a man’s front teeth. Pete Lanahan was finding business ' brisk; at least two dozen men cluttered the place. Most ot them were farmers, and therefore virttial strangers. 1 nodded to them but Cord didn’t even glance their way. He pressed on to the bar and 1 followed. Lige Bingham and Vince Randolf sat

Household Scrapbook BY ROBERTA LEE i <» , — O Cookies Cookies can be handled much I easier if the dough has been chilled for several hours before rolling. Place as little four as possibe on the board, because too much flour and too much handling produce tough cookies. It is better to roll and cut a few cookies at a time.

at one ot the tables, talking to three other farmers. They looked at me and 1 spoke; figuring that it didn't cost anything to be civil. “Beer ne’re," Cord said, and Pete anahan came down tie length ot the bar, his handsworking the mugs and taps. He shaved the nead ofi two beers with a wooden paddle, then slid them along the cherrywood. “Tram going to De on time, Cord ?” "Nothing to make it late,” Cord said. "That Luther’s one Cor takln a chance, ain't tie?’: Lanahan grinned. "I'd never marry__a_ " “woman’ 1 never seen.”, o ’’lt's his gamble," Cord said. "Suppose you let him cake >t, Pete." He lifted his beer then and turned, hooking his elbows on the edge ot the bar. Lige Bingham and Vince Randolf were watching him. Finally Cord asked, “A little dry out your way ?” We all knew danged good and well that it was; the Cartners tongues were hanging out Cor water, and since our spread and BilL Hageman's ran on both banks of the river Cor three mites, there wasn't much chance ot their getting any. This isnt to say that either Hageman or the O’Dares owned all the land, but we'd been careful to get the sections that controlled the water; The truth ot the matter was, we'd lived here long enough to know that water was more, important than grass and onty the farmers who d dug a well and put up a windmill were even getting by. If Cord had had his way about it, wed nave owned all the land along the river, and then some, but in order to control as much as we did, we had to give ap some to the farmers; they owned sections and ’put upt fences right in the middle ot our grazing land, which was a constant irritation to Cord. — Lige Bingham acted like he wasn't going to answer. Then he said, ”1 could use ram.” He raised a hand and brushed his heavy mustache. He had no love for the O’Dares, or any cattlemen for that matter. “If it gets too dry for you,” Cord said mildly, “I'll buy you out.” “I’m not selling," Bingham said "The land's good and if we could dig a tew irrigation ditches, we’d make out." 1 Cord sipped nls beer slowly. 1 watched him for 1 had seen him do this before, encourage a man to argue and plead tits case when all the time he had made up nis mind to turn him down. “What, does Bill Hageman say about irrigating?" s “He ain’t against it," Lige Bingham stated.

Outdoor Meeting LANCASTER, Mass. — (IF — For the first time in tins town’s 304-year history, a town meeting has been held outdoors. Eighteen citizens conducted their business just outside the town hall • because of humid weather.. No Bait MANITOWOC. Wis. — OF — — 16-year-old boy looking for nightcrawlers with a flashlight looked up to find himself surrounded by police. Neighbors, suspecting he was a prowler bothering city residents of late, had called officers.. A new r kind of "memory" device for electronic computers is a photochromic chemical in solution Each cell can serve as a switch and 100 I million of them occupy only a 1 square inch of sfciace.

There wasn’t much Cord could do about Bingham for the' man had his land snuggled amongst Bill Hageman's spread. But Vince •Randolf was another matter. He was one of the three farmers that cut up our property. Cord switched his attention to him and asked, "You thinking of irrigating too?” < ' *- ; "I was," Randolf admitted. "Yoifie not against the river," Cord reminded him. “Neither is Higgins, Mooney, or Everett. I’d hate to nave ditches dug across my land. I’d nate to see the river lowered just so you could grow «a crop and have the frost kill it.” “ “He'said this slow and “careful so' there would be no misunderstanding. And Vince Randolf understood. He looked at Bingham, then said, “1 don’t like being surrounded by your property any more’”than you like me oemg there. It grates tne to drive another man’s land to get to my own.” “I’ll buy you out,” Cord said. "A fair price.” "Thank you, no,” Randolf said flatly. Cord shrugged and finished his beer,--then indicated that 1 ought to do the same. As he stepped toward the door, the train whistle sounded faintly* blowing for Rmdo's Springs a Car piece down the road. We stood for a moment in Hanahans iront porch, wa‘Ching a buggy and rider come tn from the east. I glanced 'Quickly at ~~ Cord, then whipped my attention back to the iggy, which Julie Hageman was driving. She was a year older than me, but 1 sure never counted that little difference as any great obstacle. She was a slender as tall as 1 am, and 1 didn’t object to that either. The fact is, there wasn’t much about Julie Hageman that 1 did object to, evm the way she would look right through me to see Cord. Her hair " was auburn, or “TT was in ‘ the 1 wintertime when there was life 1 sun to bleach it an exciting shade 1 of red. Her eyes were dark and throughout a year 1 averaged up ’ a lot of wasted time just dream1 tng about how they would look when she confessed that It was me she loved. 1 The buggy wheeled by and Cord removed his hat, bowing i slightly to Julie. It was then > that 1 looked at her brothel, Bill, , on his big bay. From beneath his hat brim came a gl-nc as . heavy as thunder, then he passed i on to dismount in front of Heri Schommer's Hardware. I stepped > down, ready to go on to the i depot, but Cord put his hand on , my shoulder. ' “Walt a spell,” he said and turned a challenging glance on ) the Hagemans. . . . (To Be Continued)

Acreage Reserve Program Is Opened Corn Acreage Plan Underway In County Farmers interested in placing their corn allotment in the corn acreage reserve are reminded that it is necessary to bring a map of their farm, listing the crops in each field for 1956 and 1957 in order that a soil bank base may be established for their farm before signing an acreage reserve agreement, Burl Johnson, chairman of the county ASC committee, stated today. Crops shall not be harvested in excess of the permitted acreage soil bank base crops, consisting of corn, wheat, oats, soybeans and vegetable crops. Johnson stated that schemes or devices which would tend to defeat the purpose of the program are prohibited. A landlord is not permitted to enter into an agreement or understanding with a tenant which will deprive the tenant of any income he would have received if a corn acreage agreement had not been signed. A producer who signs an agreement is not permitted to harvest corn on another farm, which is in excess of the allotment, or the 1956 or 1957 corn acreage by more than 10 percent. Noxious weeds must be controlled. Pasturing is not permitted prior to January 1, 1958. After a producer has been notified of his soil bank base, on agreement designating the field for corn acreage reserve, may be signed. Stakes must be set on 'designated acreage inspection, which will be made before the approval of the county committee. Period of sign up is Jan. 13. through March 7. Farmers are urged to call at the office at an early date, in order that the soil bank base may be established so the agreement may be signed before the deadline date. The office is located above the .Sutton Jewelry store, hours are 7:45 a m. through 4:30 p.m.
