COLONIZATION OF
THE SOUTHWEST
Aid and inducements Offered by
the Missouri Pacific Railway.

The Missouri Pacific Railway is bend
ing every effort towards developing the
agricultural, mineral and industrial re.
sources of the West and Southwest. To
attain this end, it asks the aid and co.
operation of every farmer, miner, ner.
chant and professional man along its
lines.
The development of the products of
any section of the country means Just
so much more capital to be spent in that
section. Prosperous neighbors make a
prosperous community, especially il they
live and have their interests at home.
1t is this class OF persons that the
Missouri Pacific Railway asks the pat
rons along it's lines to invite to their
sections.
You furnish the names and addresses,
and we will furnish the necessary de-
scriptive and illustrated literature to in
duce them to settle in your community.
We wish to colonize the West and
Southwest, and offer every inducement
in the way of excellent transportation
ABILITIES and low rates to all prospective
settlers and homeseekers.

A Warning to the Boys.

An evening or two ago a bull
let, evidently shot from what
the boys call "nigger shooter"
struck the side of Frank Nichols
house land, rebounding, struck
his daughter who was standing
near. These are dangerous toys
to handle. boys. More than one
person has had an eye put out
by bullets flung from them, and
windows are often broken.
There is a strict ordinance
against carrying them and you
are likely to be arrested and
locked up if you are caught
with one in your possession.
Marshal Farris stopped the edi-
tor of the News this morning
and told him to say that he
would dislike to arrest any boy,
but that he certainly would dc
so if he caught one carrying a
"nigger shooter. There are
lots of ways for you to have fun,
boys, without useing such dan.
gerous toys, SO the best way te
do is to chuck the thing in tn,
stove and have fun in some 9th
er and less risky way.

Our Market Letter
KANSAS CITY, NO., march 3, 10

KANSAS CITY, NO., March 3, 1908
Special to the AGITAToR:
Total receipts last week 33, 500 cattle
1920 sheep and A, 100 hogs, as com.
pared with 81, 400 cattle, 13,4OO sheen
and ~ $500 hogs the corresponding week
last year. Hog receipts were nearer the
receipts of year ago than during any
week this pear. Fat steers closed the
week Is to 20 cents higher than the
previous week, although Eastern mar
kets showed a decline. The proportion
of high class steers was small during the
week, and short of the demand, which
accounts for the advance here. Cows
were moderately scarce, and the good
kinds closed fully as high as the close of
the previous week. Stockers ana feed
ers enjoyed an active trade, at fully
stetdy price, and $40 cars were taken
out by country buyers. Frank Hardesty,
OF Usage County, Kansas. sold bunch
of almost purebred Galloways on Tues
day. weighing 1877 pounds, at $3.50
which was within 80 cents of the best
price paid for fat cattle during the week
The run OF cattle tor two days this
week amounts to only 1000 head, but
little more than half the number for the
corresponding days last week. Prices
naturally advanced on everything. being
10 to 20 cents higher than last weeks
close. Top steers Yesterday sold at
1925, and the top to-day was $40
Cows and heifers sold, yesterday, at the
highest market prices of the winter again,
one bunch bringing $40. The cow
market is strong again to-day. The
supply of she stuff has been short tor
two weeks. Gamers sell little better
than last week Stocker and feeder re.
ceipts are light this week, and prices 10
to 10 cents higher than Friday.
Increased hog receipts last week proved
a bear argument, and prices went off
the first three days, Thursday heavy
hogs were higher again, and by the
close of the week, heavy weights were
steady with the previous weeks close,
light weights 10 cents cheaper. and pigs |
a quarter lower. The run so far this
week is moderate and the prices were 5 |
to ten cents higher yesterday and steady
to strong to day Top hogs sell at
S7.25 to-day, with bulk at 500 to
SIS. Hogs under 200 pounds bring
100 for best, and pigs are worth 5000
to S6.25.

A Daring Eskimo Lover.

Ayoung Eskimo had secretly courted
the daughter of ali enemy The huts
Of the lovers were not far removed,
but one night the terrific cold ripped a
great crevasse in the ice, and the young
mans house was left Isolated. A gorge
100 feet deep and twenty feet wide
separated 1t from the igioo. or hut,
containing his sweetheart, but there
was a narrow bridge of Ice left across
the crevasse. and this, the young man
found, would bear his weight. Eski-
nos sleep in bags. The lover decided
that he would that night cross the ice
bridge, steal the maiden he loved, year
her to his hut and then break down the
bridge so hat he and she together
might enjoy their honeymoon unmo-
Tested. He planned very successfully.
He crept in the dead OF night into his
enemy's hut, he snatched up the maid
en- in her sack without awaking an
one. he bore her over the Ice bridge
safely, and then he opened the sack to
embrace his bride; but. beholding Its
contents, be gave a loud cry. 1t was
not the maiden. but her father. that he
had stolen.
