Southern advices of further deteriOra-
ton Of the cotton plant are general and

Kertucky tobacco will grade better

land says it Is unprecedented in dry
goods and clothing and prosperous in all

tive distribution in seasonable lines with
trade taking advantage of discounts. A
heavy movement is conspicuous at st.
Louis and throughout the States tribu-
tary TO that city, which extends to all

Further troubles are besetting the
board Of county commissioners in the

claiming that the road was not opened
according TO the original survey.

able extent before a truce was finally
effected. The total length OF the eX-
tension is about four miles.

S. Bailey. After word for the intens-
i've culture which characterizes the Ar
kansas valley Mr.. Bailey spoke of the
trials of former settlers in western Kan
sas where neighbors were highly valued,
because your had to sometimes borrow a
loaf or take your gun and hunt the lively
jack rabbit. He extended a hearty well
come to the happy and contented audi
ence he saw before him. While he loved
Colorado he was not ashamed Of Kansas.
1t was great state. Many people had
tried to farm in western Kansas, but asIthe
Creator had designed it for a different
use, they sadly failed. Mr.. Bailey closed
his address with the following verses:
Hurrah for the great Centennial state,
The one that boasts she has no mate.
That forms part of the great backbone.
Whose air is full Of rich ozone.
Whose mountains richer than any with
gold.
Her valleys are teeming with riches ga
lore,
What in creation could man wish for
more.
But our greatest boast is that we
proudly can say,
That the cream of the nation has moved
here to stay.
Rev. M. M. Nelson followed in short
speech full Of fun and stories. He once
thought the Missourians were the only
people who knew good thing when they
saw it, but as his wife was from Kansas
he wanted to retraot that statement.
The fact that there are so many Kansas
people in the Rocky Ford country proves
that many in the sunfower state know a
good thing when they see it. When the
boys in blue in the east came out Of
the army in '65 many of them found their
places filled and they moved to Kansas
and helped develope that grand state
And after few years discipline there

the right hand. and the inquisitive girls,
after all other questions had been ex-
hausted, asked him how he lost his fin
ger. The answer was: ut was worn
off pointing out Colorado scenery to Kan
sas school marms." Other good stories
were followed by some humorous verses.
Chairman Sloan then introduced Major
Hendershott, who told several good sto-
ries reflecting on himself and M. S. Mar
tin, closing with getting G. W. Goss into
partnership with him in spelling match
the Major in the lead, Of course.
Mrs. Dora Howard read an article
bearing on leading feature of life in
Kansas-prohibition The statistics she
presented proved that prohibition had
been of great benefit to Kansas in saw
ing of money and the emptiness of many
jails and poorhouses.
THE Kansas Press" paper by c. v.
Kinney. was highly interesting and show
ed up the strenuous character of the ed
itorship in Kansas during the border ruff
fan times and the hardly less warlike
county seat moving era.
A mandolin trio by Miss Myra Cheek,
Ferdinand Aylor and Fred Cheek, jr. was
so enthusiastically cheered as to merit
the encore which was not given.
J. H. Wasson was the only speaker who
could or would boast Of being born in
Kansas. He briefly presented the many
excellencies Of his former home, showing
that no one need be ashamed of Kansas.
1t was state great in agricultural out
put and in educational and moral worth
There was much in Kansas besides grass

A Beautiful Funeral Outfit.

M. S. Martin is determined to do his
share in keeping Rocky Ford near the
head Of the procession. During his re-
cent trip east he purchased splendid
funeral car. 1t isSone Of the best made
by Cunningham, the most celebrated
maker of such vehicles in the United
States. It has rubber tires. and is very
complete in all its appointments. Mr..
Martins outfit for funerals includes a
now and handsome cab for mourners
and new wagon for the pail bearers.
The three vehicles cost about $4,000
and will enable Rocky Ford to conduct
funerals with regular city style.
