The Mousquetaire, a Partisan jour
nal founded by Alexandra Dumas,
grew and aourished for a short time
rted on during a brilliant existence
with an astonishing disregard of bust
ness methods commonly in vogue. Its
staff was the largest and most varied
ever known. Persons would walk into
the office, propose working for the pa

cepted. .s*.. - -
"What will you allow me?" a new

would explain to every new aspirant,

If you should want a months pay in
advance now, don't scruple to, ask for
it."
Everybody was dazzled, and Dumas
himself more than all the rest. No
business enterprise, however, could ex-
list on such a basis, and the journal be-
gan to languish. Then q man named
Boule proposed taking the speculation
out Of Dumas hands. He offered the
great man 100 francs a day. which
meant more than $1,000 a year.
Here" said Boule, is a checkbook
full Of those little tinted leaves you are
SO fond Of. Every morning you have
only to write your name at the foot of
one, send it into the Office and touch

ORIGIN of a POPULAR Myth.

People r expected to believe his
tory when such things as this happens.
In 1892 a man living on a small farm
east of Wichita ran out of coal one
evening. He was getting supper, and
he took an armful of corn and dumped
it in the stove. Corn was 10 cents a
bushel, and the Wichita reporter fired
the story out over the country that
Kansas farmers were burning corn.
The corn burning story has passed
into history al a fact. If Julius Caesar
had no better foundation than the
corn story he never existed at all

HIGH PRICED BEEF.
Iowa Stoekraiser Gives The Cause-Farmers
Must Advance Cattle Growing Interests.

MUST Advance Cattle GROWING interests.
The extensive cattle grower of Iowa,
f. A. Harris, gives the following reasons
for high priced beef, and no doubt he is
correct. 1t is the situation we have
many times referred to. He says:
"The great cattle companies have
failed to keep up the supply and out
put of beef annually-not on account of
the condition of the ranges nor condi-
ton of the laws in the range states-but
from the fact that the small stock farm
ers are crowding the big syndicates out
and back, and that they no longer have
40 acres OF range for each steer in their
herds. The system so long employed by
them is not suitable for the changed
conditions in the range states. The
time was when, if a drought prevailed
and feed was short in one section,
thousands of cattle were driven to
another section for summer or winter
feed, but the closing in process by the
small cattle farmer has. stopped all this.
For temporary relief they resorted to
fence the public domain and hundreds
of thousands of acres with all the water
in sight were fenced, and are fenced to-
day, in the vain attempt to stop the
inevitable that must come. If the
United States courts would compel the
removal of all fences the conditions on
hn no -
To the present inability to drive to fresh
pastures for winter feed, and the fact
that these big companies make almost
no provision for winter feed, except for
their bronchos, can be attributed the
condition of their cattle in early spring
and the failure of the present output.
rhe whole system is wrong and must
give way to a new and better order of
things, and the sooner the better.
Neither fencing nor leasing will long
stay the onward march of the home
steader and small cattle grower, and
when they finally possess the land-as
they will-with better cattle, better feed,
better care, and improved methods, the
range question will be settled and set
tied right. We will have three times
the present output of beef cattle, and
better beef, too
As we have several times referred to
this situation, we repeat that the farm
ers of the central agricultural states
must advance their cattle-growing in
dustries in order to supply the demand.
Indiana, Ohio, Illinois, Iowa, Missouri
and others here can grow nearly double
the beef cattle they do, and at good
proft.-Indiana Farmer.
