This Is the Reason.

The buyer of the Kansas City store spent
two weeks on the road digging out splendid
bargains in shoes. He visited big shoe
factories of st. Louis, Chicago, Cincinnati,
and innumerable factories in the vicinity Of
Boston, Mass. Thousands of pairs of
shoes - hoes we can guarantee with

bought at remarkably low prices.
All these splendid cash captured shoes
are coming in. A portion Of each lot win

close out Monday-we want to sell them
slick and clean-we don't want to have

SELLING COWS.
Good Planning and Printers Ink
Send Them on Like Hot Cakes"

Send Them on "Like Hot Cakes
Some people never get more than
half price for COW. They are kept till
too old, they are out of condition, they
are dry. or they are sold when there is
no demand. Such people are always
complaining about the losses In dairy
Ing. No man can afford TO sell any de-
cent COW without malice aforethought."
1t Is true the sooner a poor COW or one
that has gone wrong is sold the greater
Will be the profit, but to sell good
COW for a large price she must be just
right every way and time taken to pre-
pare her for the sale
At an auction held recently on a
nearby farm the whole herd averaged
500 each and were mere grades" This
is large price. and there was Il reason
for It, The owner decided year before
to have the sale in February, because
at that time dairymen have been get
ting the highest prices of the year for
milk and feel encouraged to pay more
for COWS and have money TO pay with.
He bred the cows to be fresh, OF
"springing udders," as cows look best
at that time, and the calves add
their value. He chose that time be
cause he could get them fat and sleek
at least expense The COWS were fed
bran, silage and hay and were carded
and brushed for some time, so they
were looking fine.
The sale was well advertised, so that
every prospective buyer in the country
knew of it and was there. The large
crowd awoke enthusiasm and competi-
ton. The COWS sold like hot cakes"
as fast as they could be put up. A lit
tie planning made them sell for $40 TO
$50 more than they otherwise would
have Sold with clean $500 profit

sIIage without siIo.

A Minnesota farmer stacks his clio
yer just as soon as it is cut. 1t makes
no difference whether it Is pleasant or
rainy weather. He goes into the field,
cuts bis clover and stacks il on the
land, making the stacks about 20 by 80
feet. In no case would he advocate a
smaller stack. He claims that when he
takes this clover from the stack In the
winter 1t Is in excellent green condi-
ton. all except wall about sixteen
inches thick around the outside. which
becomes moldy because Of its contact
with the air. The weight of the clover
shuts out the air and keeps the hay
green and tender. This plan may be
all right in Il field, but IL would be
rather dangerous TO stack hay near
buildings. Instances have been known
where spontaneous combustion has
taken place in uncured hay.-Kimbalrs

CLIMATIC CURES

The influence of climatic conditions in
the cure of consumption is very much
overdrawn. The poor patient, and the
rich patient, too, can do much better at
home by proper attention to food diges-
ton, and a regular use of German Syrup.
Free expectoration in the morning is
made certain by German Syrup, so is a
good nights rest and the absence of that
weakening cough and facilitating night
sweat. Restless nights and the exhaust
ton due to coughing, the greatest danger
and dread of the consumptive, can be
prevented or stopped by taking German
Syrup literally and regularly. Should
you be able to go to warmer cline, you
will find that of the thousands of con-
sumptives there, the few who are ben
cited and regain strength are those who

with the Youngsters.

Put in some extra good licks now
with the calves of years growth. a
little neglect just at this season may
cost lot later on. Give the grain ra-
ton regularly. 1t will not take much
to keep the little calves growing-just
a few bites every day.
AS to the dairyman making veal, j.
ID. DIETRICH thinks lit doesn't pay to
feed SIS worth of milk to calf that
will sell for S."
An Iowa farmer claims that quart
of strong coffee put into the milk used
at one meal for a calf will effectually
cure any ordinary case of scours. He
states that he has tried this many
times and UP TO date has not seen a
solitary failure.
Wilmer Atkinson gives the good adj
vice: "Never play with a young bull.

gets older he will think he must"

CHEAPER FARM LAND.
Southwest Offers Best Oppor-
IunItieS for Securing
Homes.

Many farmers in the northern
and eastern states are selling their
high priced lands and locating in
the southwest. Many who have
been unable to own their homes in
the older country are buying land
in the new country.
Unusual opportunities exist along
the lines of the Missouri Pacific
Iron Mountain Route. The rich,
alluvial, delta lands and river bot
toms lands of Southeast Missouri,
Eastern Arkansas, Louisiana and
Texas, capable of producing 90
bushels of corn, a bale of Gotten,
4 to 6 tons of alfalfa, 80 bushels of
potatoes, and other grains, vege-
tables and hay crops, can be bought
for $3.50 to $500 per acre. When
cleared and slightly improved will
rent for S4.00to 5000 per acre cash.
Uplands more rolling, lighter soil,
adapted to fruit growing peaches,
pears, plumS, grapes, berries-also
melons, tomatoes and other vege
tables, can be bought for $500 to
$1,000 per acre in unimproved state.
Many places with small clearings
and some improvements can be
bought very cheap.
This if a fine stock country. No
long winter feeding. Free range,
pure water, mild climate A healthy
growing country, with a great
future.

CHlNCH BUGS.
A Trap Crop, TO BE Flowed Under,

Trap Crop, 10 BE Flowed Under,
Makes Way With Many.
The Oklahoma experiment station
has been studying the chinch bug prob
lem and makes the following very
practical recommendations thereon:
Plant trap crop" to protect the
main crop and when the bugs move
upon the trap pillow the whole under,
bugs and all. This method has given
good results. The trap crop may be
millet, Kaffir or sorghum and should
be OH the side of the field nearest to
the wheat.
Pillow space of ten feet around the
cornfield when the bugs begin to leave
The wheat, harrow and drag with
brush TO make as much dust as posi-
bic. This can be done only in dry
weather. Small, immature bugs will
not be able to cross the ten feet Of
dust and the mature ones will seldom
resort to flying.
Later in the season, when the insects
move upon the corn, a few rows cut
and piled in armful sized piles will at
tract the chnch bugs. and If II is
warm and the corn heats thousands of
bugs will die under these piles from
chinch bug disease. The piles of green
corn offer the ideal weather conditions.
hot and damp, the disease being natu-
rally present. soon takes" and the re,
suit is the death of all bugs affected.
Do not attempt to destroy the chinch
bug by spraying. 1t has been tried at
the experiment station and by numer-
Gus farmers. with the same unsuccess-
full results.
Finally begin next winter to save
your wheat crop by cleaning up all
places where chinch bugs could hide
away and pass the winter months.
