CHAMPION BULL "PAT," OWNED BY THE
PRINCE OF WALES.
day to day, are becoming little more
fastidlous, and there Is n just dis
elimination between the good and tho
inferior sorts and the poorly fed and
the we'll fed animal. The ideal animal
of the future will not be one with a
preponderance of fat. 1t must be one
of rather matured beef, nicely grained
and of sufficient solidity TO give sub
stance to the carcass.
Breeders of the different pure beef
breeds Of cattle are strongly impressed
with the belief that their particular
breed should take highest rank in pro-
duclng the ideal beef animal, but 1t
will always remain with the farmer
and feeder to furnish that animal which
will please the taste Of the average
consumer. While the grass fed ami
mails from the western ranches will
furnish a fairly good supply Of beef,
yet the prime sort will always come
from the grain growing sections of the
country, and for this reason there is
very bright outlook for the feed grow
er and for the cattle feeder who Is
located In any of the central states.
These states are fsvorably situated
and so blessed with many progressive
and painstaking breeders and feeders
that here will always be produced the
best and choicest beef animals of the
world. If one would care to follow the
reports of the fac stock shows held
during the past season, he will discover
that the majority of prime beeves has
come from Indiana and Illinois, and 1t
is a noteworthy fact that these states
have never fallen behind in the COM
petition of fatted animals in any show
held in this country. 1t remains, then,
for these feeders and grain raisers to
determine as near as possible what
the demand will be during the next dec
ade for beef animals and to meet that
demand as nearly as possible. When
any farmer or feeder has determined
these points and settled 1t in his own
mind decisively, he has gone a long
way in making a success of his cattle
raising and feeding business. The path
of the breeder of beef stock Is plain,
and the path of the general grain
raiser and stock feeder Is plain, and
he who will not keep in line with the
demands of the day will surely and
quickly fail in his work.

Young Horses In Winter.

Many farmers seem to have n notion
that II horse is to be tough, rugged
and wlry he must endure hardships
during colthood, says Wallace's Farm
er. Others have an idea that nothing
Is too good for the well bred colt and,
therefore, that he should be kept close
ly stabbed and blanketed in the winter
season. 1t is hard to tell which of
these is the worst nonsense. Let US
see what is required.
In the case of the weanling, you are
laying the foundation, or rather you
are attempting to carry out the plan,
of the architect or the breeder. If the
plan of the architect is to be carried
out, the colt must have abundant nour-
ishment, mainly albuminous, such as
oats and clover hay, with more or less
corn, during the winter. TO give this
colt kind Of balancing ration and keep
him tied up in the stable is absolute
cruelty. He needs shelter from storms.
but he must have in order to develop
properly abundant exercise and that,
too, in the sunlight and open air. 1t is
folly to hamper colt, and equal folly
to stunt it by submitting it to hard
conditions, such as the run of n stalk
field and the food he may gather there.
The yearling may with profit be Civ
en- a little grain during the winter,
should perhaps for its best develop
ment, but after the colt is year old, If
you will give 1t plenty of good blue
grass pasture, or n second crop clover
field that has not been pastured down,
give it the run Of haystack, clover
preferred, plenty of salt and water and
exercise, and shed of the simplest
kind If 1t be only waterproof for refuge
In stormy days, that colt will give a
good account Of itself, not only in it's
yearllng form, but until 3 years old,
when 1t should begin, like the boy of
10 or 10, to earn its living.

LIQUOR CASE DISMISSED.
First Trial in the Present Batch Re-
suits in Dismissal because of
Technicalities.

In Justice Wood 'scourt at LaHarpe
Thursday was held the trial of
Frank Koontz, who was arrested at
Gas City early this week at the same
time that all the lola men were taken
in. Gard and Ritter represented the
defendant and succeeded in having the
action quashed on account of legal
flaws which they found in the papers
on which the arrest was made. The
trial occupied but short time and
consisted wholly of the lawyers argu
ment on the motion to quash.
AS all the arrests are said to have
been made on the same information
and on the same kind of papers, it
looks as if there might be a wholesale
clearing of the men under arrest,
simply through this legal technicality,
and not through any question of guilt
or innocence. The habeas corpus
granted by Judge Stilwell would seem
to indicate that he also has doubts
about the bindingness of the war
rants

|OLA'S PARK PROSPECTS
The Kansas City Star Exploits the
Plans Drawn by Burns q Melon
nell to Beautify the Park.

Sundays Kansas City Star con-
tanned the following write-up together
with an excellent picture of the plat
drawn by Burns & Mcdonnell for
identifying the public square:
lola, Kas., in the center of the Kan
gas field, is planning a series of pub
lie improvements for this season. This
town has had remarkable growth since
years ago. Then it had a population
of only LOGO. Now it is town o
5000 people, possessing zinc shelters,
flour mills, a sulphuric acid factory,
the largest Portland cement plant in
the country and many other indus
tries. To keep pace with this rapid
growth the town has had to make
wholesale improvements.
Last year the town built water
works system, an electric light plant
and established complete system of
street grades. This year it proposes
to make the following improvements
a new court house, a new city hail. a
public square, several miles of street
paving, a sewerage system and an
electric street railway from lola to
Gas city and LaHarpe. Burns 81 Me-
Donnell, consulting engineers of Kan
sas City, have been engaged to draw
the plans for these improvements.
The public square plans have been
made and will be submitted to the city
council of lola in few days. Four
blocks are included in the proposed
square. The county court house site
is in the center, to which gravel walks
leads from the four sides. On all
sides of the square there is to be a
row of shade trees and two rows OF
trees along the walks leading to the
courthouse.
1t is proposed to build the new city
hall near the southeast corner of the
square, while the southwest corner is
reserved as an available site for the
postoliice. a new postotllce is what
lola needs and the business men OF
that town say they must have new
one and will work for it. The plans
for the square show walk leading
south from the courthouse a short dis
lance to d rinking fountain, where il
branches and extends to the two cor
ners of the square, past the city hall
and postoffice sites. A granitoid
sidewalk leads north from the court
house site and it is crossed by a cir
cular driveway, which curves in until
it touches the north side of the court
house.
The plans for this public square
were drawn according to suggestions
made by the city council of lola, and
they will probably be adopted. The
people of lola have long felt the need
of new city hall and county court
house. Plans will be drawn for then
next and it is quite likely that they
will be built before the end of the sea
son.

BIG PATENT SUIT ON TRIAL
Edgar Company Suing LanyOn Zinc
Company for Alleged Infringe
ment of Machine Kilns

For months and years there has
been a suit pending concerning the
patent machine roasting kilns in use
by the Lanyon Zine Company here.
The huge machines rake and roast the
ore almost automatically, making a
great saving in labor bills. The
kilns were installed by the Robert
LANNON'S Sons Company and sold to
the new company, and while both
sides make stout contention as to the
merits of the case, lola is very much
in favor of the Lanyon company win
ming as the suit is of considerable i'm
portance to it.
The final hearing has come up in
the United States Court at Leaven.
worth, from which place dispatch
says: "The equity suit of Edgar VS..
the Lanyon Zinc Company, of lola,
Kansas, in which over half million
dollars are involved, was heard in
the United States court before Judge
Hook to-day. The suit was brought
to test the validity of certain patents
employed in roasting zinc at the Ian
yon furnaces. II is claimed that the
process known as the Popp patent,
which the canyons are using, is an
infringement on the Brown patent,
owned by the Edgar Company, which
owns the smelling works at Collins
vile, III. The case is one of vast inn
portance to the Lanyon Company, and
if the injunction prayed for by the
Edgar Company is granted, the Ian
yons would have to return to the Older
processes which would cost much
more and render competition impos
sible."
And a later paragraph in thC
Leavenworth Times says: Edgar e.
al VS.. The Lanyon Zinc Co.; No de
cision was rendered, tbs judge taking
the matter under advisement.
''This last case was one of import
ance and yesterday afternoon Alber
H. Walker of New York appearing
for the Lanyon Zinc Co., spoke fol
four hours in making his plea before
the court. He is a celebrated paten
lawyer and has tried many importan
cases.

ing at o'clock at the home of her
parents, Mr.. and Mrs. A. p. Beck,
302 South street, after an illness of
several weeks, during which the strug-

BEEF ARIsToCRATs.
Americans No Longer willing to Put
Up with Poor Meat.

We are becoming n nation of beef
aristocrats, and we are not willing to
put up with the quality of beef which
was provided ten years ago by our To-
cal butchers. This change oc tastes
has beer brought about largely through
the better methods of feeding cattle, as
now practiccd in the great grain grow
ing states. 1t is not the writer's in
tention to undertake to describe what
the future beef animal will be, but
more especially to note the points
which viii rnost likely fill the future
requirements Of the consumer. The
great increase in the consumption Of
beef during the past three years has
emphasized the fact that better and
more beef Is demanded by all classes
Of people. Not only is this true Of our
own people, but also In the foreign
markets where our products are sold.
Likely there Will always be n limited
demand, for special purposes, for can
ned beef which will consume a large
part OF the inferior grades of beef
which finds its way to our principal
markets, but the general public, those
who are beef consumers of today and
those who buy small supplies from

Ex-senator 7OVne Still Against
Imperialism.
Late Candidate for Vice Pre-
sident Comments on Agui-
naldo's Proclamation.

Ex-senator Charles A. Towne of Min
nesota late Populst Candidate for Vice
President of the United States was shown
copy of Aguinaldo's proclamation and
said:
1t is clearly the uttersnce of man acho
yields only to force, and considering the oc.
currences of the past two years, it constitutes
one of the most pathetic incidents, in
history. see nothing in the proclamation
on which to base any imputation on the good
faith of Aguinaldo. One thing
should be borne in mind, the surrender OF
every hostile force in the Philippines and
the absolute acceptance of our dominion
throughout the archipelago does not dispose
of the question involved in the acquisition
and government. by this republic of distant
colonial dependencies, Wrong as the policy
is, and cruel as it is against the Filipinos,
it is infamously more wrong and cruel from
the standpoint of the welfare of the United
States.
