Thirty five property owners have eth
er built or rebuilt these houses, and all
are residents Of the city at the present
time, except one, o. P. Liston, formerly

Eight business houses have also been

which are Of brick They are:

Most Of these buildings were rebuilt
after the fire and were generally put up
by the owners Of the property or bust

The cash value of ali these improve
ments at a conservative estimate would
aggregate 100000.
The Rock Island railway company has
within the last year doubled the capacity
of the shops here at an approximate out
lay Of $4,000.
This advance in the building up of the
town has increased the population from
100 to 100. and the end is not yet
GOOdland is the best town in western
Kansas, and the probability Of future
growth Is very promising.
The demand for large hotel is as
pressing as it has ever been, and fifty

Of the railroad, rather than bring their

The SHIRLEY RECIPE.
a Local Physician says the Prescriptions
Is No Good.


Last week this paper published by re-
quest the recipe Of A A. Shirley for cure
Of scarlet fever and small pox. A long
time regular practitioner IN this city
says Of the recipe: There is nothing in
it, as the dilution Of the materials Of the
prescription, namely, one grain Of sulph-
ate OF zinc and one grain Of digitalis, in
four ounces OF water, makes the dose
only one thirty second part OF a grain Of
the ingredients, and more than that,
there is no germicide in the preparation.
He also said that there was danger OF
the people being misled by the recipe,
relying on il when a physician should be
called; that6 or six years ago family
used the Shirley prescription, finally
calling in a physician when il was too
late and the child died. Patients nav
die in any event, but to rely upon such
an attenusted solution of these ingredi-
ents would have about the same effect
as taking so much water.
"A person might take the whole Of
this compound as one dose, and no ply.
steal harm would result. DigitaIis l.

malice they visited around as far as they
could with the probability that the dis
ease viii be general in the southwest
portion Of the county in a short time.
As soon as the matter was called TO
the attention Of DR.. Waterman, county
health officer, he went out and qusran-
tined the homes Of G. S. Durham, Chill
ton Lining, John and Samuel Lining,
but there is great danger that all harm
possible had been done.
It is reported here today that there
are three cases at Chiffon Innings, three
at George Burnhams and that Samuel
Lining is down with the dreadful
disease.
1t seems to Us that something ought
to be done to teach those persons who
seem to take a delight in scattering in
fictitious diseases, a due and proper res
pect for the rights and interests Of others
George Durham whose daughter
Mrs. Lining, was broken out with the
small pOx at home, was in st. Francis
last Saturday and didn't seem to know
that he was doing any wrong.

The death OF Miss Eva Kellogg, who
was a member OF GCodlaud Sunshine
Camp No. 1915, Royal Neighbors OF
America, calls from our hearts an d minds
such a charity and regret as can only
come from where there is profound es-
TEEN. In our camp relations, and 10
our social meeting with her. there always
existed IN the deceased that inde6nable
something IN her personality that makes
US wish that we might still share IN this
life her individual beuevolence.
The members Of our order feel a per.
sonal SORROW IN her death, and wish in
this way TO express the honor in which
Sunshine camp held this member, and &c
extend the sympathy from such q union
TO the mother, brother and sisters Of our

And it is now ordered that our charter
be draPed in mourning for a period o.
sixty days. and a copy Of this proceeding
be published and a copy be written upon

BOYS IN TRAINING.
The Young Athlete Should Have All
Around DeveIopment.

The Young Athlete Should Have All
Around Development.
The first care Of the school athletic
trainer should be to remember that he
Is training boys, and that he has not
fullgrown men under his charge. The
growing boy is capable Of IA great deal
Of work, but this should not be made
too severe, or he win lose the nervous
force which Is at the bottom of all sue
cess in any kind of athletics. The exer-
else should be made as pleasant as pos
sible, and the young ath. etc should not
be allowed TO specialize, or at least not
in the same manner as the full grown
athlete. Ii is all very well for the young
athlete to have his fay0rite event, and
to have one In which he is most prof
cient; bat ha should also have certain
amount Of sp-inting. misunderstanding.

else In some form Of light gymnastics,
such as the chest-weights, Indian clubs,
or dumb-bells. This will give him the

astic athletics-which is to send the
young man forth from the school fitted
for college not only in mind but In body
as well In their great desire to win
out" many trainers lose SIGHT of this
real object of athletics in any school.
They must have winners at any cost,
and they force the young athlete to
such an extent that. though while at
school he does some very cred.table
performances, he Is never heard of ar
forward, because his nervous force has
been impaired. This is the great danger
toward which competitive scholastic
athletics Is drifting, and il is the duty
! of the principals to see that the future
health Of the boys intrusted to their
charge is not forever lessened through
| over-anxlous athletic instructors.
The principal should also be most
careful in the choice Of trainer, who,

great influence on the boys ideas OF
fairness and true craftsmanship.

A plank bridge is built across the

Beets or EnsiIage.

Corn ensilage and sugar beets were
tested at the Nebraska station as to
their value as succulent feed when
given to dairy cows The herd was d.
vided into two lots. the same as in the
experiment for testing alfalfa and wild
hay. The results shown by this expe-
riment We're a little In favor of ensilage,
but the difference was very slight. 1t
seems to be more a question of how
cheaply the two succulent feeds are
produced than of their feeding value.
Both foods gave good results and were
rellshed by the animals.
