Kansas agitator. [volume] (Garnett, Kan.) 1890-1905, 1896-04-24

WE read a few days ago. that the police of
Wichita raided a saloon-broke up all the fix
lures with sledge-hammcrs, and destroyed the
goods" We were we'll pleased with this bit
of news until we read further and learned that
the reason for this act was that the saoonist
refused to pay the city license--RETUsED TO
OBEY THE LAW enacted by The city lawmakers.
So the chief of police arose in his majesty and
swore mighty swear that THE LAW MUST AND
SHALL BE ENFORCED-and he proceeded to en-
force it i'll the manner described. Yet, are
told by old Fishworn Morrill, that the law can
not be enforced! If the city law can be en-
forced, the state law can be enforced. Morrill,
has the militia behind him, and they must obey
his orders. Why, he can even send them fly
ing across the state i'll pursuit of circus COM
pany that raised little disturbance out at St.
John. But then, he can't employ this same
militia to enforce the prohibitory law. O, no.
that would offend the whisky gang that con-
trbuted so literally to elect Morrill, in 1894.
Our governors daisy-a im-dandy!

The difficulty experienced by house.
keepers generally in having washing
done at home causes many who can Ill

while If proper attention is given the
work Il may be done quite as satisfac-

water, rinse in blue water, wiring,

The Water supply of the ra,m.

The water supply of the farm is of
the utmost Importance every day In
the year, but principally during the
summer when decomposing matter of
every kind is so abundant, not only
about ponds and along streams, but in
cisterns and wells. Many forms of
disease are disseminated and spread
through foul water. Not only is this
true of the diseases of stock. but of
mankind. No essential feature of the
farm is so sadly neglected. Half the
troubles of dairymen, general stock
raisers and swine breeders are said to
be due to bad water. Often old stock
will do very well with poor and insult
ficient water, but with young things
plenty of good, clear pure water is abb
solutely necessary to their thrift, and
to Its lack is often due their death. No
farm is complete in its arrangement
without good water supply. A good
cistern. well or pond is one of the per-
manent Improvements of a well regu-
lated farm and adds wonderfully to its
value. Assuming that everyone has
supply of water for family use, the next
most important use is for the stock.
Ponds are easily made by the use of
the common road scraper. Selecta de-
