HELLO SAM

=
out there since November. [ |
got the malaria fever while work
ing in Kansas City during the
flood, and went out there to get
it out of me. l got it out of me
and they got the last dollar out
OF me. / wouldn't live in that
country for anything. Kansas
is the best country under the
sun, and say, Moses, I want to
work for you again. l worked
for you two seasons before.
All right, Sam, 60 to work,
and do the best you can, but
stick to your job.
Do you know that Barton
county raised more wheat last
year than any county in the
state? That the value of this
wheat was worth more than one
fourth of the gold output of
Colorado? That the state of
Kansas raised six times more in
value than the output of the
Colorado mines and hercrop pro-
auctions? The total output of
the farm and stock in Kansas
was 1887 ,537, 0SS. 90. The total
output OF the farm was nearly
224 millions, Of cattle, sheep,
hogs, ETC., 164 million.
Stick to Kansas, especially to
Barton county, and you: will
have something to eat, when
nfhon ,o1a odo ono h,,pt;n~ for
something.
Don't walk when J gu can ride.
You have to walk a great many
times when you can't ride. save
your strength in this way, and.
you will live longer happier.
Therefore, come in and buy Of US
a Moon Or Velie buggy or carri--
age, and also one of our patent
riding attachments for harrows
and plows.
You may have to put in more
earn than you expected, and you
may have to put it in quicker
than you thought you would, if
you want to get something to
help you out, get the John Deere
two or three wheel lister, or the
old style walking lister. Should
you want something cheaper in
any of these lines, we have them,
but the best is always the cheap
est in the end.
You have said, "Well [ guess
I need a harrow, and I am going
to get one some of these days"
Well, you will need it some of
these days when you haven't
got it, Hadn't you better get it
now, and get the John Deere?
You know, you have tried them
10th, and you know that any
instrument or implement that
helps to keep you well and from
feeling tired and all worn out, is
just what you want, rather than
TO go to bed, Or to the hospital.
Then get our new improved
bread mixer and raiser The
Quick Meal gasolinestove, which
don't heat your blood, but keeps
you cool.
A set of those nice neat, hand
painted dishes, or the plain semi
porcelain or china. These you
know give you pleasure and
satisfaction, and that is better
than a dose of medicine.
There is nothing that worries
a woman more than to know
that her house isn't just as nice.
and neat as her neighbors. She
may go without an extra dress,
Or bonnet, or a pair of gloves,
but to think that her rooms are
not furnished as nicely as her
neighbors hurts her, because she
thinks that her husband, herself,
and especially her children should
have as nice a place to live as
anyone. And why shouldn't
they, when they can get their
rooms papered for three or four
dollars apiece. and a carpet for
eight or ten. Lace curtains
from fifty cents to three or four
dollars, Rocking chairs for $3.50.
Nice ones for $3.50 and So. so.
Bed room suits and iron beds.
Book cases any price you want.
Why not get things now? The
only good that money can do
you, is the satisfaction you get
as you go along.
Why not get a Garland cook
stove, and a nice organ Or piano
which we can sell you at any
price you WANT.
Get nice bath tub, a wash
bowl. and a kitchen sink. Have
Everything convenient. 1t saves
