FOR A LUMBER YARD
! vi q LOulULII InUD
Farmer Kay" Ransom Pur-
ChaseS Necessary Ground.
18TH AND LAWRENCE
Is the Site of the North End
Enterprise.

Farmer Kay Ransom. well known in
this city, viii embark IN business in
Wichita. Yesterday he purchased ground
at Eighteenth street and Lawrence ave
nue. to establish a lumber yard. It VIII
not be a small lumber yard. for Mr.. Ran
som viii stock It well with the lumber
that is needed in the building which is
JUST beginning in wichita
To the person who thinks Of it, on frs,
thought the idea OF having a lumber
yard at Eighteenth and Lawrence seems
very peculiar, but after a time one likes
the idea, For that part Of the town is
sure 10 see much building within short
time. The man who is on the ground
with his lumber at prices which are right
is the one who viii sell the goods. With
the coming Of Cudahy, people said the
North End would improve. This is an
accepted fact at the present time. Right
now it Is impossible TO secure houses to
live in and when the employees of
Cudahys packing house arrive, where
viii they live? This is the question that
is confronting the North End people and
there is only one solution and that is 70
build.
For this reason and with these conclu-
sions, Farmer Kay Ransom has decided
to stock a lumber yard in that part Of
the city.
After Cudahy starting the Whitaker
plant comes more men for Dold. and
again the question Of houses comes up.
Within a few years another packing
house viii come to Wichita and there
viii be the same demand that there is at
the present time. That the North End
is bound to grow there can be no ques-
ton and the fact that there Is to be a
lumber yard in that vicinity Is enly an
other proof of it
OF course the chances are that one lum-
Der yard viii not secure all of the trade
but when spring comes there Will be
enough business in the North End for
more than one lumber yard
The stock for the new lumber yard viii
begin to arrive within a short time. In
fact a portion OF it has been ordered a.
ready. By spring Farmer Kay viii have
his yards IN splendid condition and viii
be ready for business.
There IS evidence, too, that the farm
ers surrounding Wichita have been max
ing money during the past years Mr.
Ransom has splendid farm northeast Of
Wichita. Perhaps it Is no better than
others, but he has made money on it.
Now, since having been successful in
farming, he viii start a business In this
city in one Of the best districts Of Wich-
ita 70 compete with WIchita's merchants

BIG lax RECEIPTS
$4,000 Paid TO County TREASURED
Boon Yesterday.

Forty thousand dollars were paid IN
taxes 70 County Treasurer Boon yester-
day.
This amount by far exceeds the Iarg-
est receipts Of that Office on any previous
day.
Mr.. Boon stated yesterday that most q
the taxes for the year have been paid
into the county treasury end that there
are but comparatively few relinquents.
The reason for this is the fact that the
farmer has had a prosperous wear as wei
as the city man and consequently ls in
a position to meet his obligations.
Many have lost confidence and hope as
well as health, because they thought
their kidney disease was inc1rable.

people out on Sunday afternoon as were

marked that it had been years since such

GEORGE A. w EST.
Referee.

Mr. Major. the famous cement man. Of New
York. explains some very interesting facts
about Majors cement.
The multitude who use this standard article
know that is it many hundred per cent. better
than other cements for which similar claims
are made. but great many do not know
why. The simple reason is tlRt Mr. Major
us, the best materials ever discovered and
other manufacturers do not use them be-
cause they are too expensive and Go not allow
large profits Mr. Major tells us that one of
the elements OfhiS cement costs s.. - a pound
and another costs -. IS a gallon, while a large
share Of the sO-called cements and liquid
glue upon the market are nothing more than
sixteen-cent glue, dissolved in water or ctric
color and odor by the addition of cheap and
useless materials.
Majors cement retails at fifteen cents and
twenty-five cents bottle, and when a dealer
tries to sell a substitute you can depend upon
it his only object is to make larger profit.
The profit on Majors cement is as much as
any dealer ought to make on any cement.
And this is dOubtly true in view Of the fact
that each dealer gets his share of the benefit
of Mr. Majors advertising. which now
amounts to over $4,000 a month throughout
the country Established in 1876.
Insist on having Majors. Don't accept any
offhand advice from a druggist

likely to find that you are good deal more so
