We noticed a petition Friday for a

in all probability we will, as the Santa

us two railroads, as the Missouri Pacific

where the wagon road crosses their line,
and then it would also give the north

An Old Friend.

in series of interviews with members
of the last Congress, 81 out of 43 re-
marked that they were readers of The
Youths Companion. For definite and
trustworthy information on the questions
of the day it is really unique, while the
high character of its stories. the wide
fields covered by it's special articles, and
it's contributions from the most famous
writer's in Europe and America, are well
known.
Its program for next year is brighter
than ever. Some of the important stories
are: "The Deserter," by Harold Frederic;
Tale of the Great Mutiny in India. by
Sara Jeanette Duncan several Romances
of the Sea, by W. Clark Russell; Tales
of the War, and of the Frontier in Early
Days. Henry NJ. Stanley contributes two
thrilling narratives from Darkest Africa,
and Archibald Forbes writes of his
CLOSEST Call" Naval Battles are described
by Admirals, and Military Life by Gener-
ais. Then there are articles on Choosing
an Occupation, Boys who Should Not
Go to College, Physical Training, Rec
reations OF all kinds and many other prac-
teal subjects.
Another pleasant feature is the charm--
ing picture of Young lady Of colonial
times, "Sweet Charity" reproduced in
colors from painting by Ferris, which
is presented to all subscribers who send
their $1.75 for a new subscription or a
renewal. 26.

When times are hard and none

When times are hard and money
scarce, the farmers should do just as other
business men do-cmrtail their operations
and SO reduce expenses. The best way to
accomplish this Is to confine the cultiva..
ton to a smaller area and by SO doing, get
larger crop at less expense. The ultl-
matlm of farming in arid America where
irrigation forms such an important factor
the small farm well titled. The constant
lv Increasing demand upon the water sup
ply will require smaller holdings, closer
cultivation and more strict economy in all
phases of the business.
