The subject of irrigation is attracting
unusual attention. At the Hutchinson,
Kansas, irrigation convention, held Nov.
1924, there were more p~ratical irrigators
in attendance than ever before assem-
bled at an irrigation convention in the
United States. The discussions were all
very practical and instructive. They
will be reproduced in full in the Decem-
Der number of the Irrigation Farmer.
Every farmer in this country should
have a copy Of this paper. 1t is the only
paper that is devoted wholly to the sub
ject OF irrigation farming. 1t cost only
81 a year, and whether you expect to ir-
rigate or not you can not afford to be
without it. Send to the Irrigation
Farmer, Salina, Kansas, for a sample
copy and examine it for yourself.

Argus Leader, 6: President Cleveland
has Hardened Il. G. Williams, who has
been confined in the penitentlary here for
seven months and seventeen days for sell
ing liquor without a government license
in Marshall county. He was sentenced
in the United States court here April Is,
1874, to one years imprisonment and to
pay a fine Of $500. Williams health is
very poor and it is largely due to this
fact that the pardon is issued now, al.
though it will also save his citizenship.
