THEY SEE THE POINT.
Some Facts Which Exist as Between the
Round and Square Bale.

Round and Square Bale.
Farmers are making figures
Some of them have been bringing
their cotton to market in the seed
some of them have hauled it over
thirty miles, but the scales are
falling from their eyes
One man brought his load of
1900 pounds twelve miles and sold
it for 2L cents, which netted him
$37 80. This man was out of his
cotton patch one day and was away
from home one night and had to
pay wagon yard fees besides. He
picked another bale, but had it
ginned at his country gin. This
1900 pounds made him 500 pound
bale of lint cotton, which he sold
at Sc. % on the market, netting him
$34. 10. He then sold his cotton
seed, thirty-two bushels, at Is
cents, which netted him So. 10,
making total of $4O.5O Now
deduct what he paid for ginning,
s. so, aud for Ebagging and ties,
- cents, and this will make $3.25
to be deducted from the $40. 80,
which will show a net result of
1926.
This shows that the farmer gets
% cents for. days work of him
self and team, besides being away
from home and his family one
night and one day; his wagon yard
fees, and besides, he looses the fine
planting seed which he has been so
careful to merture and improve.
Still this is not all, for next spring
at planting time he will probably
have to pay from 30 cents to ST a
bushel for seed, which he reads
about but knows nothing OF, for
planting purposes, and the only
consolation he has is that he is in
dividually helping create one Of the
grandest monopolies ever found in
any country.

Bob, ''you ought to have been out to
Crimson Gulch last fall, so as to hear
some of the real thing"
I'VE have some pretty luminous speci-
mems in congress-" ventured the man who
felt it incumbent on him to show little
local pride.
Not circumstance. I've read some
OF them kind of speeches. I've heard
'em too. A Teller come from the east an
started In to tell Crimson Gulch what it
orter do. Some of ethe boys allowed
things was gettin ruther slack, an they
says anything fur change. So they took
his advice an blazed away an organized

We jes' passed the word around that the
city council was goin to be held an made
1t an open game. Everybody was there
except Nevada Bill, an he didn't dare
show up because he was under suspicion
of sittin in a poker game with private
stock of blue chips which he had bought
unbeknownst from a store in San Anto-
MO. 1t wasn't long until, under the in
struetions of the tenderfoot, we had the
city council in good shape Only officers
was allowed to wear their weapons dur
in the proceedings, an nobody was barred
from the debate. The first business we
took up was the case of Nevada Bill. We
reckoned that 1t wouldn't be no more
than decent local pride to prevent the
importation of any poker chips except by
the duly recognized authorities fur said
importation. Rattlesnake Pete said the
only way to make the law bindin was to
pervide that anybody breakin it should
be shot at least once. The tenderfoot got
Filled in a minute. He jumped to his
feet an got off the most long winded talk
about constitutionality an the rights of

| ever heard. He talked hard, an he
showed he had read books. But you or
ter have heard Three Finger Sans his
toric reply. 1t jes' showed how quick a
man who has the gift of genuine elo-
quence can end an argument. Crimson
Gulch hasn't got through talkin about it
yet. Three Finger Sam drawed himself
up to his full height an p'inted his finger
at the tenderfoot I don't desire to use
no harsher words than is necessary says
he, but I'd like to know what you mean,
you low down, lop ear jack rabbit, by
comm into this town an tryin to tell us
whether a man needs shootin or not.
Have we got to wait for some lantern
jawed coyote to come wanderin in off the
prairie an tell us what's good fur us?
Beware" says Three Finger Sam, still
p'intin his finger an CROWN more elo-
quent every minute. Beware, you bow

come here an overawe people because you
wear specs. Have care, or the fust
thing you know you'll be travelin out of

Hi. Good Eve.

1t is curious fact that the loss of any
one of the FIVE senses is at0ned for to a
considerable extent by a pronounced in
crease in the efficiency of the other
senses. The result is sometimes aston
ishing.
A man who had lost the sight of both
eyes trained his hearing until he could
tell by the sound of his footsteps on the
sidewalks, as he made his way about
town, whether he was in the middle of
the walk or at one side, whether he was
walking past brick or frame house,
or fence, or open ground.
He knew in what part of the town he
was, not only by his memory or sense of
general direction, but by the difference
in the tones" of his footsteps, and he
walked about freely, seldom running into
anything or anybody.
Some one in his presence once called in
question his total blindness.
(which eye do you think I can see
within" he asked the skeptic.
THE left one, of COURSE" was the re-
ply. Il can see that the right one is
blind"
In reply, the blind man merely opened
his penknife and tapped the left eye with
the little blade.
1t was glass eye.-Youth's Compan-
ion.
