A large number OF our farmers
have this season contracted to de-
liver at Sites and other places at a
specified time grain principally
fiax---at certain number of cents
below the Chicago market QUOTA
ton. Now, how are they to keep
posted on the MARKET They must
sell at certain time and how are
they to know whether or not they
are receiving their just deserts?
The grain companies have their
kilograms and the farmer is COM
PEELED to take their word az to the
market For instance. ii fax goes
up in price the grain companies
are Immediately notified, but the
producer may sell at the old figure
comparatively long time before
he If made aware of the raise. A
simple and inexpensive way to pre-
vent this probable loss was sug-
gested to US by one of Greencreek' S
prosperous farmers, Mr.. Bell. He
has the following idea; "I.et all
the interested farmers combine and
each one contribute to common
FUND a certain amount, until the
fund is large enough to pay for
caily or twice -a-day dispatches
from Chicago giving market quota
lions The amount An individual
would have to pay would be SO
small that it would never be felt
and such service may be the max
ing OF many a dollar for the honest
tiller of the coil. We think it is a
GOOD idea. The grain monopolists
may be doing the right thing, but
4 would cost only very small
sum to be cure about it. II they
are dealing honestly with the farm.
or the small, outlay will never be
missed, if they are not, he may save
hundreds OF dollars. 1t would be
good thing TO arrange for farm
ere meeting to talk this PROPOSE
sion over. II the farmers, like
other laborers, would combine and
act harmonicHsiy IL is our opinion

Another Statement.
Mr.. Taylor, father of the alleged murder
er, in conversation with a reporter In Bal
timore last night had this to say:
with my wife 1 had been living at 217
street northwest, Washington. The
trouble with my son started in this way:
My first wife, his mother, behaved so badly
that l got a divorce from her In 1885. She
is still living in Washington. My son
sided with her and did not want us d.
vorced. When 1 married that woman there
whom he klled-pointing to the body of his
wife on the fioor-he became jealous and at
once formed a dislike for her. We were
married in October. 1887, and tried every
way to make my son get along peacefully
with her. He said he didn't like her and
that 1 had no business marrying her. He
quarreied with her nearly every time they
met. and one time nearly beat her to death
on the street in Washington.
Recently 1 sold piece Of property on
Howard street near Lexington, for my wife,
who held 1t as trustee. Last Saturday my
son and l came over to get a part pay
ment on the property. We went back to
