Demand For Farms.

The increasing tendency of city
dwellers to buy homes in the country
is not confined, as is generally be-
lieved, to the very rich. Those of
moderate means means are also
gravitating toward the green fields.
For a number of years 1t has been
the fashion of the rich to spend the
try, and to occupy the town house
but few weeks at most. Now there
Is a disposition to make permanent
homes in the country, and this desire
Is not confined wholly to the million
aires. Men with modest incomes are
buying homes as far removed from
the dust, noise and smoke of the cit
les as their business will allow. While
this exodus to the country benefits
directly only farm properties contig-
uous to the cities, the final effect is
to raise the value of such property
over a wide extent of territory. II
what President Hill, the great rail-
way magnate, says is true, namely,
that within the next fifty years most
of the now fourishing industries will
have become silent because of the
exhaustion of the. mines and forests
and wells upon which they depend,
and that the population will then be
compelled to the tillage of the soil,
the appreciation in the value of farm
lands will be enormous. In any
event it is the part of wisdom to
stick to the farm. 1t will feed and
clothe one and keep roof over his
head whatever happens. Farm Jour

available. AS corn advances in price
It will be noticed that the saving per
bushel increases practically three
tenths of cent with each five cents
advance in the price of corn. Should
the price of corn be as high as sew
enty-hve cents per bushel the saving
by grinding would amount to little
over four cents per bushel.

Railroad to Mecca.

The railroad line to Mecca is be-
ing built by Turkish soldiers, under
the supervision of German civil en-
ginecr, and the cost is being defray-

contributions. The remainder of the

When Hens Need Limo.

Hens that lay soft-shelled eggs do
not get enough lime in their feed.
They should be fed different diet
with more grit and vegetables. When
they drop these soft-shelled eggs in
the runways and on the floor it is
likely to encourage the other hens to

Best For Market Purposes.

The best types of poultry for mar
ket purposes are those which have a
plump body, light colored plumage,
preferably white, yellow skin and
legs, neat head point, such as small
comb and wattles, medium size, and
those which grow ranidly.

Electric Polisher.

The increasing demand for high
grade floor polishing has resulted in
the introduction Of an electric ma-
chine which is very efficient for use
on large surfaces of tile, mosaic and
other floors of similar construction.
A six-whecl electric floor surfacer, all
of the driving parts of which are
completely closed and protected from
grit and water, is now manufac-
tured.

Corn Superior to Oats.

Corn is very superior to oats as
poultry feed. Experiments show that
when corn is fed there is an increase
in body weight. and when oats are
fed there is Il tendency in the oppo-

Saturday was Abraham Dabakey who
came down from Fort Dodge to see
the Hassen Brothers held in Jail for
the murder of their cousin. and to
meet the father of the boys. The
father had gone down to Omaha.
The visitor had his interview with
the boys sitting on drygoods box at
the Jail window and talking through
the bars. He cannot understand why
the prisoners should have killed their
cousin whom they always seemed to
think much of.
