Dark Horse Mill Burns.

On Thursday forenoon of last
week the big concentrating plant
of the Dark Horse Milling Com
pany was discovered on fire. The
mill was in operation at the time,
but the flames made such head.
way that nothing could be done
to save the plant. 1t is thought
the fire started somewhere in the
boiler room.
The mill was owned principal
ly BY Laning & Harris of Kansas
City, and was not insured, the
policy having expired on the 18th
of this month. The loss is in the
neighborhood of $1,000.
The fire is particularly unfor-
|tunate at this time. as the prop
|erty was being operated, ana was
producing very nicely. John
Rice, f. c. Gaines and others had
a lease on the mill and ground,
and had lately opened up some
very rich ore. They will con-
tinue to operate the ground, but
will have to clean their dirt some
where else. AT the present time
they have more than Car OF
zinc on hand and perhaps $4,000
pounds of lead.
w. T. Apple, local manager
for Laning & Harris, tells us the
mill will probably be rebuilt.

THE TIME TO ADVERTISE
Is the Time When You Most
Need Purchasers for
Your Goods.

1--WE continue to do things
ridiculous thiugs-because our
fathers did them," remarked a
man today, "and we 60 on doing
them year after year without ask
ing ourselves why We do so. A
case in point is the matter Of adj
vertising, which today is thing
of necessity in the BUSINESS
world. If you will notice it you
will find that the average busi-
ness man in periods of dullness
and financial depression begins
to retrench in the matter of his
expense account by curtailing his
advertising. He does il because
his father did it and because he
argues that lie can lop il, off and
restore it again with less incon-
venience than lie can other ex-
penses. But If he will think for
a moment and weigh the matter
as cold business proposition in
volving dollars and cents he is
bound to admit his retrenchment
had best begin at another point.
IF advertising is good busi-
ness practice at any time surely
it is most valuable when the peo-
pie are buying least, for if its
object is to attract the purchaser
and get him into the store, nat
urally there must be greater eff
fort expended in that direction
when the public is buying least.
No matter how severe periods of
depression are, and how stringent
the money market may be, peo-
pie will spend what they must,
and naturally they are at such
times more quickly attracted by
the offerings of advertisers, as
they are eager to have their ex-
,.anditures bring the best results. I"

MUST DO IT.

Oklahoma has made a move
which it is necessary for Kansas
| to follow, and at once. The leg
islature of Oklahoma has passed a
law which goes into effect in Feb
ruary which guarantees the safe
| ty of bank deposits. 1t lis the
first state in the union to pass
such a law, and the bankers along
the southern part of Kansas are
now asking Governor Hoch to
call a special session of the legis-
lature to pass such law in Kan
sas. The bankers say they are
already receiving notices to the
effect that accounts will be trans
ferred to Oklahoma banks as
soon as the law becomes effective
in that state. The bankers view
with alarm" the law in Oklaho-
ma, unless such a law is also
passed in Kansas.
The chances are that Governor
Hoch will call a special session of
the Legislature.
