THREE BOWLDERS
To Be Placed With Appropriate Cere
monies to Mark Old Santa Fc Trail.

Garden City Kas. Nov. S.-The CON-
n.endablc historical enterprise Of APP
lropllatcly marking the old Santa Ft

out by The Daughters of the American
Revolution. 10 Fiun"y county. The
trail Will soon be Identified ana mark
ed through this section, and the entire
work will be performed by school chill
dren. Such is the plan of the county
superintendent.
In an interview had with County
Superintendent III. p. Nichols he Sale
he believed thoroughly in developing
within the minds of the young revcr-
ence ana interest in the reminiscent
and historical. And he said that his
intended plan for marking the trail
would achieve that result.
The trail runs through this section
near the sand hills and not far from
the Arkansas river. 1t is almost cX-
tinct in places, but after Il canvass of
the oldtime residents of The place. Sup
erintendent Nichols announces that it
can be identified throughout its entire
length. There are several men here
who can trace it perfectly.
The plan of the county supcrinten-
dent Of schools of Finney is to allow the
school children to contribute the funds
necessary, and then appoint a holiday
on which they shall AL get together
and, with appropriate ceremonies. place
the three powders which arc to mark
the route. The children VIII be taken
over the old trail and will make it
picnic occasion. There will be q pro-
gram suitable to the day and its mem
cries.
The three powders for use in this
work are to be Of gray granite and will
weigh from 800 to 500 pounds. Mr..
Nichols las been in communication
with those who are in charge Of the
matter as a whole, and he is active in
his attempt to mature the plan, as ne
feels that the work should not be de-
layed.

WOMEN RANCH OWNERS
Mrs. Cornela Adair's Domain Covers
100000 Acres.

Fort Worth. Texas, Nov S.-The big
ranch of Mrs. II. NJ. King, in southwest
Texas. which has always been looked
uuon as being one of the largest in the
country. lacks 100000 acres of being as
large as the ranch owned and con-
trnllcd by Mrs. Cornclia Adair. situat-
ed near Clarendon, in the Panhandle of
Texas. The Adair ranch embraces
| 100000 acres. 1t is all in one body.
1t il remarkable that two of the big
gcst ranches in the country are owned
and controlled by women. ami that
both are managed with great care and
success. Mrs. Adair is Il wholly diff
ferent type of woman from Mrs. King.
She is fond of society and travel. She
spends several months each year in
England. On her periodical visits to
Ter ranch she brings with her large
parties of I;ritishers. These visitors
usually belong to the nobility, who find
mach pleasure in the wild ranch life.
There are something like $4,000 head
of cattle on the Adair ranch, and an
nually about 10000 calves are branded.
The number of steers marked each
year is between 5000 and 5000. The
annual net profit of the ranch the last
ten years has been more than 100000.
Tn" husband of Mrs. Adair bought
the ranch tWenty-nine ycasr ago at an
average price of 20 cents an acre. At
that time tn" land was considered prac-
tica!ly worthless. even for grazing. Now
the ranch is worth many million dol
ltrs. There is not an acre of this tract
that would not bring on an average of
: 10 per acre if placed on the market to-
day.
Prosperous farmers now surround the
biz Affair ranch, but this vast estate
is still held intact, and no effort is
made to farm any part of it. The
ranch house headquarters is Il stone
building, more representing AN ancient
castle il appearance than anything
else. 1t is equipped with every con-
Vcnicnce. including electric light. water
works. sewerage, and other modern APP
planes.
Mrs. Adair is fond Of the chase. She
keeps on the ranch a stable of bloodel
horses and large kennel Of dogs.
Wolf hunting is her favorite sport.
