THE KANSAS COW.

E. E. Bland of Sharon is an en-
thusiastic advocate of local
creameries. He is the only man
in Sharon township who keeps a
separator and milks cows, but his
neighbors are beginning to show
signs of following suit. Mr.. Bland
informs US that it is no task for a
man to realize S. per month on an
ordinary COW if he has separator.
He made in the neighborhood of
5000 during the past year from
that source and he figures it just
so much picked up in chore money.
1t did not interfere with his farm
work at ALL He did as much field
work as his neighbors. In eastern
and northern counties the cream
separator has taken the place of
the extensive ranch and it has put
many farmer on the road to
success with easy labor. The man
who owns a small herd of COWS
has a double source of revenue.
He sells his cream and raises his
calves on skinned milk and a
small amount of grain, and at the
end of the year he shows better
calves than the man who lets them
run with COWS.
Mr.. Bland says Sharon Valley is
especially adapted to this industry
and he believes the people of that
locality will gradually grow into
it. He believes it would be an
extraordinarily good place for a
cooperative dairy farm which has
yielded bountiful returns to farmers
elsewhere, and an institution of
this kind together with the horti-
cultural resources of the valley
would make it one Of the richest
communities in Kansas. He has
given the matter great deal of
thought, is we'll read and under
stands it thoroughly. In fact,
Mr.. Bland has made farming and
stock raising his life's business,
has combined experience and liter
ature and the two are invincible
as educators. A few years ago
Mr.. and Mrs. Bland moved down
from Lyons, Rice county. They
bought T. ]. Grihith's farm for
! $500: They have since refused
$4,000 a number of times. They
are prosperous and content to live
in Barber county and have un-
limited faith in her future.

BIT BY A RATTLESNAKE.

A daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. E.
T. Daniels residing a short distance
west of the city, was bitten by a
rattlesnake about week ago. DR..
Coleman was called and admins
tered antidotes and otherwise treat
ed the patient and she was soon
out of danger.
The best thing to do in case of a
snake bite, DR.. Coleman says, is to
Immediately cord as tightly as pos
sible above the bite and then cut
the flesh at the place it was bitten
SO that it will bleed freely. The
cord will prevent the poison from
permeating the system and the
flow of blood from the wound will
carry off much of the poison below
the cord. This treatment in con-
nection with antidotes and exter-
nal applications will overcome the
worst case, if done in time.

CARRIE In A MUSEUM.

Our townswoman,C Carrie Nation,
who has probably more than any
other individual, published Medi-
cine Lodge as a producer of great
people and odd characters, all
over the world, has been en-
ployed by a dime museum in
Chicago if the press, dispatches Of
last week are true. Her salary is
5000 per month and all she is re-
quired to do is to show herself to
the people who want to see the
worlds champion booze destroyer.
Of course, it is certain that Carrie
will not sit in dumb silence while
the curious ones are surveying her
physiognomy and it is safe to
predict that she will find oppor-
tunity to relieve herself of number
less extemporaneous remarks on
the ravages of the Demon which
she and her little hatchet have oft
times vowed to destroy.
The appearance of this boasted
apostle with inspiration from on
high, in dime museum with mon
strous salary attached looks a little
incongruous to the average world
ly mortal, but we presume that
Carrie has it figured out that God
came to her and told her to go In
to the wicked city and exhibit
herself as Gods chosen one and
capture that $500 per. "Iow are
the Mighty Fallen!''

A MULE CREEK VICTORY.

The Mule Creek and Roundup
baseball teams met on the field of
battle In Moore township abont
fourteen miles south of this city on
Sunday and the Mule Creekers
won in score of IS to II. Fred
Elliot, i'm Woodward, Charley
Madden, Kirk Collins and Ed
Coyle of this city played with
Mule Creek, and Harry Newkirk
played with Roundup. Maddin
and Collins formed Mule Creeks
battery. Had White who is Mule
Creeks regular pitcher, was sick
and could not play, but he will be
heard from later. Harry Newkirk
pitched for Roundup but the team
didn't have man that could hold
him behind the bat. This partly
explains Mule Creeks victory,
although it is conceded that
Roundup was a little overmatched.
Quite number of Medicine
Lodge people drove down to see
the game and they all enjoyed it.
This contest marks the opening
interest in local base ball move
ments and from this time on the
games will be numerous.
The Mule Creek people have
issued standing cli. llenge.
Notice it in this issue of the Index.
