Jacob w. Burkholder was born il
Cum berland county, Pa, in lS4l'
died at his home northeast Of Abilene
April 2, 1904, aged 81 years, II
months, 7 days.
He spent his early life near Orrs'
town, Pa. Here with his two brothers
and three sisters he grew up to be q
respected and honored citizen. The
family were lovers OF music and Jacob
was the leader, being converted at
the age OF 10. He with his sisters
and brothers gave their voices to
Christ and this influence was strongly
felt in private and public gatherings.
To disposition he was quiet, unas'
Stunning and gentle. kind to everyone,
always willing to bear more than his
share Of the burdens. He was one Of
those men that by his kind words and
acts made friends Of everyone who
knew him.
In 1872 he was married to Miss
Ella Powers Of Otrstown. Six years
later, he moved with his family to
Rocks county, Kas., where he stayed
long enough to use his homestead
right, after which he moved to north
Dickinso where be was recognized as
q success sful farmer. A little over 8
year ago he purchased the Hsnts
Iarm among one Of the most improved
Iarms il the county. Here with bis
wife, two sons and daughters he
planned to spend his remaining days.
Mr.. Burkholder always enjoyed
good health until four years ago 1t
was discovered that he had heart !

MAKING ORGANS RAPIDLY.
Western Pipe Organ Factory Is Busy
With Orders.

A good many people we're dubious
OF the success OF the Western Pipe
Organ company when it was started
few months ago but a visit to the
shops show that the promoters under
stood what could be- done. With
Prof. c. Bath in charge several work
men are busy and already ssven me-
chanical organs are nearly ready for
use. Two of them are sold aud the
market is strong for all that G n be
produced. Such firms as Lyon g
Healy Of Chicago and jenkins Of Kan
sas City are listing the organs in
their catalogues and there is every
encouragement for alarge business in
this department alone.
Mr.. Bath is az expert and knows
the business thoroughly as does his
chief assistant, Wm. Priem. The
business management is in charge Of
J. A. Young.
The company has issued an artistic
catalogue and has a fine prospect for
the future.

Pastures Not 40 Well Filled As in
Previous Years.

This week has seen the opening o
the pasture season in central Kansas
and many herds Of young cattle are
on the way from the winter feed lots
to the pastures where they will live
on grass during the summer. The
herds are smaller than they have been
in years past. Bankers report less
seattle paper" in the central Kansas
banks this spring than in any previous
spring. A year ago the owners Of
pastures had no trouble in getting all
Of the cattle their lands would supply
with grass, and the owners Of cattle
had difficulty to find places for their
stock. The conditions are reversed
this year.
The change is due to the fact that
many stock feeders have been driven
out Of business BY the high price they
have to pay for feeding cattle, and the
low price they receive from packers
for fat cattle. In this county there
are fully o score Of farmers who have
made practice in previous years Of
fsttening a hundred head or more Of
cattle every year for the Kansas City
market, who this year stayed out Of
the business completely. Every one
Of them declared that he will never
fatten cattle for the market 40 long as
conditions remain as they are now.
One Of the leading stockmen said:
aft ID doubtful II g single stock feeder
in this county has made one dollar In
the last four years by buying feeders
aud iattening them for the Kansas
City market. have made nothing
BY that kind Of speculation and know
3 dozen others who have not. We
have found that we can get more for
our cJrn from the grain buyer than
We can get for 1t from the stock buyer.

How Light Should Fall

1t is almost universally believed
that the best form of reading lamp is
one which, by ueans of an effective
shade. concentrates the greater por-
ton of the light upon the reading mat

one Of the "drop-light" sort which
brings the flame near and below the
readers eyes. The result sought after
is, that much light be precipitated on
