Death Of Edgar mallory.

Edgar Mallory, the little three-year-
old son of Prof. and Mrs. S. Y. Mallory,
died of cholera infantum Saturday after
noon at three o'clock after a weeks Ill
ness. The funeral was held from the
home at four o'clock Sunday and inter

J. Ed Stevens conducted the services.
Edgar Mallory was born March 3, 1899,
at Clyde, Kan. A friend of the family
contributes the following verse in mem
DRY of the child:
Why do we always choose the sweetest flower,
And pull il ruthlesSly from of the stem
That gave 1t lifel And yet Indignantly
Exclaim with wonder, Whom the godslove die
young.
Short sighted mortals! Theirs the nobler lot;
While We plOd on with ever wearying feet.
The heights are gained by these young earnest
hearts
Unsullied by the world, free from the strife
That still retards our steps, they reach the goal
And gain the crown Of Immortality.
Alas, Our human hearts are sOrrowfuI;
There Is no JOY for Us in all the world
Since he has gone the flowers bloom not 50
fresh
The birds sing not so sweet, for in our hearts
There Is no echo Of their iOyOu sness-
And yet We would not take him from the still
SecluslOn Of the clOister where he dwells;
For there. BY guardian angels gently led,
Free from the strife of human hearts ne ives
That life of perfectness which we cali death.

Of its institutions, who would be better
prepared in good families for the duties
of citizenship. These children range ID
age from eight to sixteen years These,
in addition to the boys and girls who
come to the society from other sources,
are making a larger demand on the
homes Of the state than ever before.
There is Iplenty of room in the good
homes and warm hearts Of the Christian
people Of Kansas for all these children.
The problem Is to find the homes and
adjust the children in them as fast as
possible. In this the help Of everybody
in the state is desired. What can you,
kind reader, do? Can you take one of
these boys OF girls into your home? Can
you give name and address Of any others
who might do this?
The society needs help also along an
other line. Its work cannot be done
without some money for expenses. A
small amount is provided blythe state
treasury, but most Of its expenses must
be paid by free viii offerings of the peo-
pie. What can you do along this line?
This society exists for the benefit of
Kansas children who need homes. Its
workers desire that every child who
needs their help should have it. Many
in the state know of the society, but
some do not think Of it at the right
time. Please remember it whenever
you find child needing a home.
The law passed last winter makes pos
sible the rescue Of some children from
bad homes. A few parents in Kansas
ought not to be allowed to raise their
own children. If you know of any such
children, help to rescue them, and let
the society place them in good homes.
This society has placed in homes more
than 500 children since January, 1894.

J. MACK LOVE CALLED DOWN.
John n Atwood Severely Arraigns the TX
Chairman OF the Democratic state
Central COMMITTEES.

LeavenwOrth, Kan, Aug. 11.-While IN
conversation with John II. Atwood, the
brilliant Kansas lawyer and democratic
orator, to day a correspondent asked
him what he thought Of the political
out look in Kansas.
"GOOd; Splendid Mr.. Atwood replied.
Thirty days ago I did not think it prob
able that we would win, but the spOntan-
eous enthusiasm that the people are
manifesting for our cause compels me to
change my mind"
What DO you think about the prom
inent democrats who say they believe
the republicans will win?7 asked the
reporter.
The only democrat" replied Mr.. At
wood, "Eho could, by a stretch Of the
Imagination, be called prominent who is
talking that way Isl J. Mack Love, and
Mr.. Loves prominence is purely the re-
suit Of circumstances. He happened TO
be at the head Of the state organization,
but, as Dick Morris said IN another con
nection, he was like the COW catcher of
the engine, well to the front, but supply
ing none Of the motive power that
moved the train.
@Mr. Love was found unsatisfactory,
even as a COW catcher. He has been
RELOCATED to the junk yard, and now,
from the pile Of political scrap iron, he
prophesies the defeat Of the party,
which he hopes for, but which be car 10

The Cunning Cow.

The average New York market price
for butter fat last week was 2Ol cents.
The market was healthy with an upward
tendency.
Wisconsin farmers, who have been
feeding Kansas people with their cheese
products, are noting with a good deal of
anxiety the rapid growth of Kansas
cheese factories. In ten years Kansas
will be supplying most of the great
southwest with fine rich alfalfa and buf-
falo grass cheese.
A local creamery received the follow
ing letter: During the past year I
went over my route $50 times. In that
time l got out and in my wagon 4,S72
times, unloading and loading heavy
cream cans. I am Il years old but not
dead yet. ". BrOdie, Victor, Kansas"
1t sounds unreasonable, but it is the
experience Of the best dairymen that a
good pair Of scales will add the yield of
one COW to a herd of ten. Try it and
see. Hang them in the barn and put q
record sheet alongside. 1t will work.
Prosperity breeds prosperity. Kansas
dairymen are growing to be the best and
they want the best. The dairy commits
sion, like improved COW breeds, is of the
present and the farmers are going to in
sist that the legislature give them agOOd
commission. Address all inquiries to L.
A. Borman, secretary State Dairy assOci-
alton, Topeka, Kansas.
The squirms Of OleO are frightful to
see. Hundreds Of schemes have been
tried to make it look like butter and
evade the law, but the dairymen are
only smiling and turning out more but
ter, protected by Uncle Sam from the
frauds. The days Of cleo are over. II

dairy business; it came up IL a night
like mushroom but when the sun came

SHERMAN COUNTY APPLES.
Fine Specimens From the Farm Of County
Treasurer i. WarneF-Trees six Years
Old in Second Bearing Year.

County Treasurer I. Warner exhibited
some fine specimens Of Sherman county
grown apples in GOOdland Saturday.
The apples averaged 6 ounces in weight
and measured 8 inches in circumference.
The apples were grown on Mr. Warmers
farm east Of town, and although there are
not a great many trees, the excellency Of
the product proves cOnclusively that
fruit raising can be successfully carried
on in western Kansas with the aid Of
irrigation, although tree ground does not
require but three or four aOOdings each
year.
Mr.. Warmers trees are six years old
and this Is their second bearing year.
They bore some fruit the fourth year but
the hail destroyed the apples as the trees
were not strong enough to protect the
fruit.

The oldest working locomotive IN
the world is about to retire from bust
ness. 1t was built by George Stephen
son for the HettOn cOlliery near Dur
ham, and began running on Nov
ember Is, 1922, nearly three years
before the first railroad in the
world was Opened-the Stockton and
Darlington. This nameless locomotive
was made to draw a train of II wagons,
weighing about g. tons, at a speed of
four miles an hour up a rather steep
gradient After so years Of almost
continuous service it is to be seen still
at work at HettOD, the most ancient To-
connective extant. Presently it is about
to be retired and given an honorable
resting place in the Durham College of
Science, Newcastle on Tyne. On a level
track the old engine could haul 40
tons at q speed Of ten miles an hour.
Of course it has been much mended
since it left StephensOn's hands, but
there remain some parts, notably the
steam dome, actual portions of the
original. 1t may be worth while re-
calling that Stephenson had made an
engine, styled "My LOrd"-in recOgni-
ton Of the encouragement he received
from Lord RavenswOrth-fO the Kill
hngWOrth cOliiery nine years before,
and that at Wylam, in NOrthumb er-
land. Putting Bill" had been running
since 1913 on Mr.. Blackett's line, which
passed within a few yards of the cot
tage where Stephenson was born. This
was the first locomotive built in Brit
am that worked on a smooth rail 1t
was the work of William Hedley, Mr..
Blaekett's engineer, and was an i'm
prOvement of TTeVethick's engine
