REAL NEWS IS WELCOME.

With every hour THE LAKE COUNTY
TINES grows more satisfied with itself
over the timely publication of the cul-
mlnation of the most vitality interest
ing real estate transaction within the
corporate limits of Hammond.
1t takes no credit for this. A part
of the policy formulated before the
first copy of THE LAKE COUNTY TIMES
left the press, on June IS. was the res
ervation OF the right to determine
when news is news, and when. as news,
ii should be published. 1t resolved TO
hold itself aleof from entangling alli-
anoes. 10 publish the news whether 1t
helped or hurt; to set down nothing in
malice nor hold back anything for any
purpose to edit it's newspaper from
within and not from without to print
the truth, the whole truth and nothing
but the truth according to its lights
TO make suitable amends for it's own
mistakes and save those it might of
fend the trouble of going elsewhere for
redress; to call the attention of Ham
mond and it's sister communities to the
fact that they had outgrown their
swaddling clothes-in short, to make q
respectable newspaper
1t recognized at the outset that this
policy would do violence to the ethics
traditions and usages of Lake county
Journalism, but it was prepared to ac-
cept the consequences.
If the people of Hammond and the
surrounding country were satisfied &c
have their news cooked in one pot over
a slow fire, there would be no mission
here for THE LAKE COUNTY TIMES
THE LAKE COUNTY TIMES had faith ir
the appreciative intelligence of the
people of these parts.
It has not been disappointed. There
fore il is satisfied.

"ARTESIA GARDEN
LANDS"

About 100 miles south of San An
tonia, Texas, lies tract of $4,000 acres
called the "Artesia Garden Lands" so
named because the deep, rich soil and
the mild climate make the land cs-
pecialy adapted to the growing of all
kinds of garden truck, fruits and yege-
tables. You can find no finer fruit
or truck lands anywhere. Truckers
have been realizing from $500 to $500
an acre from their lands in this sec
ton. There is no Netter alfalfa land
in this country, that crop producing
from seven to nine cuttings each year,
and each cutting yielding from l to
IL tons per acre, which sells readily
for from $40 10 $12 per ton. Rocky
Ford cantaloupes grow TO perfection
on this land, as do all other kinds of
truck, fruit and vegetables. Corn and
cotton do equally as well. From this
land YOU get three crops each year, any
one of which would pay for a number
Of acres of the land. The soil is deep
and rich; the climate is fine and
healthy; the location is near town.
schools and churches; the price is ex-
tremely low. Can sell 4eacre tracts
and up at $3.50 per acre: one-half
cash, balance on easy terms. You can
raise a crop in less than ninety days
and pay off the balance without in
terest. So down and investigate for
yourself. Cheap rates. Next excur-
sion November 26th; only s25 for the

or more of this garden spot, and in a

CHICAGO LETTER.


Chicago. Oct. 20. - WHEAT - This
market had a declining tendency all
day. although the news in a measure
was in favor of the bull operators. Re
ceipts in the northwest were lighter
than usual, but this was partly at
tributable to the lack of cars and bad
roads throughout that section of the
country.
The cash situation in the southw est
is reported better, and quite a little
hard wheat was sold to exporters The
selling in the pit today was mostly for
short account and any real bullish
news will start them to cover The
market closed with & weak undertone
CORN-Higher early. but later suf-
! fered a decline of half a cent for the
May option. The car shortage through
out the west is creating a bearish sen
timent on corn. The receipts or new
corn have been very light for the pas
two days owing chiefly to the lack 81
cars to transport the grain TO market
i The market closed at the lowest price:
of the day for all OF the active futures
OATS-Displayed some strength IL
the early part of the session, but late
when the other markets became $,
weak it eased of in sympathy witt
them. Cash situation continues strong
sales of over zoo. 600 bushels to the sea
board being reported. The marke
closed steady.

A STORY

Told by a physician, of a railroad
brakeman teaches a wonderful lesson.
and applies itself to many people in all
walks of life. Said he:
The majority OF accidents can be di-
ing in a healthy state of mind or body.
Recently l learned Hfe-story of a
man whose every thought was of his
wife and little ones. From the time he
returned from his trips his whole time
was given to romping and playing
with his children and showering atten-
tions on his wife To his family he
was happy -go-lucky fellow. always
ready with a laugh and story. His
home was a little paradise. He never
used tobacco or liquor in any form.
Away from his home and family,
among his fellow workers, he told how
at times he was bothered with pains in
the back and sides, dizziness and faint
feeling They had seen these spells
come on and advised him to do some
thing They might as well have talked
to a stone wall
"One day. in coupling cars, dizziness
or faintness overcome him and he was
crushed to death. The post -mortem
showed a case of kidney and stomach
trouble that could have been easily
cured with some simple remedy like an
Herb Extract, a Quaker preparation
that can be obtained at most any drug
store Many men are like him-care-
less of their health-and as l stated.

their carelessness."

Court Attacked by Washington
Man sued for Divorce.

The first move by the defendant in the
divorce suit of Fannie r. Bassett against
Charles c. Bassett of Washington, ID. c.,
will be to attack the jurisdiction of the
district court of Douglas county to hear
the case on the summons issued. A mo-
ton to quash the pretended service of sum-
mons was filed Monday by Hall & Stout,
representing Mr. Bassett. The sufiiciency
of the AFFIDAVIT signed by Mrs. Bassett.
upon which the service is based, is denied.
The divorce suit, which was filed last
month, caused considerable interest in
Washington because of the prominence OF
the parties. Mrs. Bassett is a daughter of
ex-senator Rice of Arkansas and her hus-
band is in the government service at Wash
ington Shortly after her suit was started
