Household Hints.

If you would have your sadirons clean,

Editor Dodge City Times.
As Mr.. free ranger" has written in re-
ply to Mr. N. Marath. will write word.
He says we do not have any free range,
for part of orr neighbors will not let us
pasture on their buffalo grass, while 9th
ers don't take In their crops, and that
spoils the whole free range. What grass
we have on our land is ours, and the lit
tie stack is ours. if your cattle eat up and
destroy it, you as christian and neigh
Dor we expect YOU TO pay, as the stock is
yours and the crop is ours.
the free ranger wants our feed for
nothing. We don't ask him to give us
something for nothing, as the law is we
are equal and that is where the trouble is
While the little farmer is gone east his
stock don't trouble the free ranger, it Is
free rangers stock that eat the poor
mans crop while he is making an honest
dollar. Mr.. free ranger did you expect
to have the whole county TO range on
when you came here? If SO. you are mis-
taken.
You say you all know this is not q
farming country. So smart men said the
late war WAS failure, but with Lincoln,
Grant and w. T. Sherman at the wheel
it was a success So will this be sue
cessful farming country with n. Maratb
and plenty of stock men. Free ranger
wants what he calls free range. that is
something for nothing. if we damage his
stock he will collect damage. we claim
the same right to protect our crops.
Some portions of the county is well
satisfied with the herd law. You will
find men without hoof of stock or . foot
of land signing petitions to repeal the herd
law. What for? Because free ranger
wants the names. If free ranger has
more trouble with the herd law than he
did before. What is the troublef
Something wrong free ranger, if your
cattle keep of your neighbor. Where is
the troubles Yon spoke of my cattle not
bothering other people, herd law or no
herd law. Mr.. free ranger if you keep
your cattle with what you have q right
to they will be no trouble to your neigh
bors

Racket Store.

People are beginning to realize the
significant meaning of Spot Cash. The
manufacturer has more goods made NJ
than he has sale for. He has bills to
meet, and Spot Cash has clear ring
to him. He thinks not of profit but
raising cash.
Our New York representative is on
hand with the Almighty Dollar, and
the goods are bought at two-tEirds
their value.
Our Mr.. Rouss of New York City

from his representatives from Main to
California, requires force working
night and day--and the good work goes
on.

tainty about the eyes. an awkward shift

who will. in business like way. request
the publication to what he wants to ap-
pear. He has been invited 10 an adjoin-
ing city to make political speech, or he
will occupy different pulpit, or his rel
atives have left town and he wants their
friends to know it. Then he will COM
mence IF You want little item you can
say" Sometimes he telephones the local
rooms for reporter and has him 60 eight
or ten blocks to tell him about something
which interests only himself and his very
particular friends. Then he will COM
mence in this wise: Il knew you

had given it to the other papers" and
the story proceeds. The information
may be published and the person giving
it will probably congratulate himself on
having worked reporter. but the
odds are many that the reporter was
''on.''
Newspapers could not live if people
disllked to see their names in print, and
nobody knows this as well as the news
paper men themselves. If you want
something done and it is ncwsy and not
an advertisement come out plainly and
ask to have it published. If the reporter
understands his business you will be
much more likely to get what you want
than if you try to conceal, what is patent
