lard brothers-Thoma George and

Ing in the United States the name Of
Thomas Ballard must stand out most
prominent, and shall take the liberty
OF telling enough about this remarka-
bic criminal character to give my read
ers some conception of his Importance
in "koniacking" history.
FIRST, let not the members of the
masonic fraternity be shocked when
say that Thomas Ballard, at the sum
nit of his success as a counterfeiter,
was the master of Park lodge. A. T. &
A. M, in New York city He came of
good family, never smoked cigar nor
took a drink of Intoxicating liquor,
was married to an estimable woman.
and, like many of his kind, was model
family man." He was born in New
York state in 1910, and learned the
trade OF fancy carriage painting. When
1S years old he went to work for Henry
Hinman, wealthy carriage builder of
New York city, and related by marriage
to Joshua D. Miner. prominent New
York politician and city contractor.
Hinman observed the genius of young
Ballard and induced him to learn the
trade of banknote engraving, at which
he served four years.
Aided by Miner, Ballard obtained val
liable information from the engraving
department of the government. In 1862
Ballard produced for Miner and Henry
G. Cole plate Of the one dollar United
States treasury. His next was plate
of the two-dollar bills OF the National
Shoe & Leather bank, of New York.
From that he went to $40 counterfeits
of three national banks OF Foughkeep-
sic, the $40 bill of the Shoe & Leather
bank, and then to the $500 and $500
"old issue United States treasury
notes.
Ballard had comfortable residence
at No. 225 West Fifty third street, and
here was supposed to be painter. He
left home every morning at seven
O'Clock to go to the carriage factory,
in which he was interested, but instead
Of going there he went to No. 256 Riv-
ington street, where his brother John
lived, and where the counterfting
plant was located. The neighbors at
No. 256 Rivington street believed Bal
lard to be a Waterman in the custom
house, and he left there regularly In
the evening to go ito work." but in
reality went home. He lived this dual
life without detection for years.
The government at that time had
contract with the Glenn mills, at West
Chester, Pa, for it's entire output Of
the celebrated fiber" paper, the mills
being run under supervision of govern
ment officials to prevent the paper or
the secret of it's manufacture being
stolen. Ballard, in addition to being
high-class engraver, was the only man
in the world who could successfully
make this paper outside of. the Glenn
mills. AS an engraver, chemist, paper
maker and ink manufacturer, Ballard

WHAT run cow WIZ DO.


We know of a western community.
the land rather broken and billy, but Of
fairly good quality, where for forty
years the farmers have been trying to
get living and save money by rails
ing corn and oats to sell, with the re.
suit up to two years ago that they al
well as their land had been getting
steadily poorer. 1t came to the point
that about twenty bushels Of both oats
and corn were all they could raise
per acre. There were no cows, no clo-
yer, no manure spreaders-just oats
and corn and corn and oats for rota.
ton. Nearly every farm carried good
husky mortgage, and whatever comfort
the people got had to be obtained from
religion, for there was none to be had
in an agricultural way. These farms
We're natural blue grass and clover
lands, but some way these people could
not appreciate the fact that they had
one of the best dairy sections Of the
west, and so they kept on year after
year raising long nosed hogs and corn
store bills, just getting little poorer
each year. A change came two or
three years ago. Some man heard the
COW gospel preached and got some
cows. He did so well that others took
1T up until great agricultural revolu-
ton was soon in progress. Today this
community is one Of the leading dairy
and butter producing sections Of the
west. Less acres of corn are raised,
but twice as many bushels to the aero
as formerly; everybody sows clover,
the people have quit running store bills
and pay as they go, the mortgages are
looking sick, the soil Is getting better
and more productive each year, big
red barns are showing up all over the
country, more and better hogs are rails
ed and, to sum it all up in sentence,
the entire community is being regen-
Grated by the COW. This is an ola
story-always works this way. Why
not try it if in grain raising, grain
selling financial hole? We will give
guarantee that 1t will work with you
as 1T always has with others. Put
twenty cows on the quarter section
farm, feed them right and care for
them and you will work out your own
financial salvation just as thousands Of
other men have done. Don't like ia
milk" you say. Well, then, keep on In
the old way, and the settlement of your
estate will be mighty short Job for
the probate court.

ABOUT INVESTMENTS.

We are asked about safe investments
for money. In what can a man invest
his surplus SO that 1t will be safe and
give fair interest return? The best
thing we can see is good farm land,
There are millions Of acres of land
which will not only pay at least per
cent In the way Of share products as
rent, but which are absolutely certain
to increase in value from 25 to 100 per
cent inside Of fifteen years. These
lands are scattered all over the north
west, the southwest and the Pacific
slope. Any good land which may be
irrigated is certain to be worth S1OO an
acre when settled and improved, and
quite likely much more. Any land
which will produce fifty bushels Of
corn, twenty bushels Of wheat, thirty
Of barley or forty Of oats for an aver
age of ten years is also worth 500 an
acre. Any land which will grow good
crops of blue grass will also pay per
cent on such valuation for meat max.
ing and dairy purposes, so if you have
money to invest and know of any such
lands which can be bought for less
money than this 1t is the best place to
put 1t, for nothing is surer in this world
than this, that as our population keeps
on increasing, as it Is bound to do, and
as very much Of our heretofore produc-
tive acres grow more and more i'm
poverished, as it certainly is doing, the
good lands of the country are bound to
command high premium. There ara
thousands of farms in the newer west
now developing, perhaps not yet touch
ed with the plow, which are as an In
yestment worth far more than the best
improved lands Of the east which rep
resent the toll as well as the soil rob-
bling Of q hundred years past. Land
does not burn up. or blow away; the
people will always be hungry and must
be fed.
