THE CATTLE OUTLOOK.
A Propaganda That Has Been Propa-
 gated Out West.

The bull calf is the autocrat of the hour out our way, and is going around dressed in purple ard fine linen, so to speak. The youngster was so thor oughly despised a year ago that no ons thought any more of it than a mangy dog, and every man who owned a bunch of the mild-eyed creatures would not spend a picayune in adver- tising the lot for sale
 A genuine COW boom has set in again much like that which we saw in 1883, and pricS are sailing out cf sight like Andree's balloon. The man with hobby for white faces and short horns is out on parade again and in some instances he is making the usual holy show of himself in his wild en- deavor to cut do his neighbor at the sale ring in whooping up prices to the danger limit, and even beyond that point. It is the man with the dough who is in evidence
 The COW girl, too, has reappeared at the sale ring side, and in her modern attire is cutting quite a swath for she has the coin as we'll and is even more reckless in her bidding on this or that animal than the horny-handed COW granger with hands on his ocketbook. The great cattle ranges of the west are being restocked with bulls of the very best breeding, and nothing is too gocd for the boys and girls who have money to burn this year.
 Old Peter Cooper used to say that it was his rule to stand still while every other fellow was on the run. and the advice is just as good today as it was then. I have not been taken yet with the COW fever and will be content to stick to my blow for a spell yet, producing spuds for the hun gry Klondykers and wheat fer the fighting Americans in Cuba Like the darkey who set a trap for the coon. l hope in this way to catch them accom- ing and a-going. This thought oc- cured to me while cut blowing my alfalfa patch the other day, and while sweating like porpoise at high tide, I consoled myself that if such exercise was good for the intrepid Cincinnatus. it would do very well for an old chuckle-headed chump like myself who would rather raise navy beans than go to war anyhow.
 There is just one more thoughtlet ready to escape from my mental abridgement, and then the other chap can fill the remaining space in Agri- cultural Advertising. The great boom by which the bull men of the central states have been raking in such glori- GUS prices on their pet animals recent ly is due to advertising. During all the long and weary mazes of the bank CTS picnic which broke out in 1893 and is still with us to greatsr or less de- gree, the Hereford breeders kept plug ging away with their advertisements fine front-page portraits and write-ups All this time they were educating the dear public into the belief that there was but one beef breed of cattle on earth, and this breed were white faces. The spring sales prove only too well how effectual has been all this whooping up process, and for one am glad to see the boys winning out so splendidly.-Lute Wilcox in Agri- cultural Advertising.

FREE ADVICE no MEN.

1t is rather early to talk about spring
clothing, but just want to put you on your
guard. Jefferson county is chuck full of
so-called tailors to the trade. Grocery
stores, blacksmiths and even railroad
agents are in the business. The whole
thing in a nut shell is, that they are TAX
ing orders for ready made clothing, and
the man that places his order with them
is paying from three to FIVE dollars more
for suit of ready-made clothes than he
could have one made to order for at C.
E. Reininger's. He is making suits to
order from $1,000 up, and pants from
$3.50 up. Beware of the sweatshop
agents and see Reininger's assortments
of the latest novelties in suitings before
YOU buy.
