GIVE CHILDREN
PLENTY OF CANDY
Advice Will be Endorsed
by Juveniles.

Give children plenty of pure SUI
gar, taffy and butterscotch and they
will have little need of cod-liver oil"
says Dr. Woods Hutchinson in the
Christmas Woman's Home Compan-
ion.
"In short, sugar is, after meat,
bread and butter, easily our next most
important and necessary food. You
can put the matter to a test very
easily. Just leave off the pie, pud-
ding or other desserts at your lunch
or midday dinner You'll be aston
ished to find how quickly you'll feel
empty again, and how unfinished
the meal will seem. You can't get
any working man to accept a dinner
pail without pie in itAnd he is abso-
lutely right. The only thing that can
take the place of sugar here is beer
or wine. 1t is a significant fact
that the free lunch counters run in
connection with bars furnish every
imaginable thing except sweets. Even
the restaurants and lunch grills at
tached to saloons or bars often re-
fuse to serve desserts of any sort
They know their business The more
sugar and sweets a man takes at a
meal, the less alcohol he wants. Con-
versely, nearly every drinking man
will tell you that he has lost his
taste for sweets. The more candy a
nation consumes, the less alcohol.
"The United States government buys
pure candy by the ton and ships it to
the Philippines to be sold at cost to
the soldiers in the canteens. All men
crave it in the tropics, and the more
they get of it, the less vino and
whiskey they want
I'm fine, the prejudice against
sugar is born of puritanism and
stinginess, equal parts. Whatever
children cry must be bad for them.
according to pure doctrine of original
sin; besides, it costs money. / know
families in the rural districts yet
where the head of the family groans
over every dollars worth of sugar
that comes into the house as a sin
full and 'unwholesome' luxury"

BARGAINS
In Both Farms and
City Property.

We have recently secured for
sale what We consider an excep-
tional opportunity for invest
ment, in the shape of a ranch of
5000 acres in Clark county. By
referring to a map of Kansas
you will see that Clark county is
in the second tier of counties
west of Barton, but considerably
south. The ranch has been in
litigation for several years. but
the litigation is now settled, and
the court has ordered the land
sold. This land is located two
and one.half miles from a station
on the Rock Island, and four
and one-half miles from another
good little town. There are two
sets of improvements; one con-
sisting of a new fveroom house,
work shop, good stable, milk
house, well, windmill and tank,
telephone in the house. The
other set of improvementsscon-
sists OF "a three room house,
horse barn, cattle shed, good
well and windmill and watering
tanks. The ranch is fenced into
five fields and pastures, with
about twenty-five miles of good
fencing. 1900 acres of this
ranch is good rich farming land,
the balance being rough, but all
good sol, and having a heavy
growth of blue-stem and buffalo
grass. There is more than a
mile of finesrunning water, from
springs; 500 acres of the rich
bottom corn and wheat land is
in cultivation; 800 acres creek
bottom land, well suited for al
falfa. 10 acres being well set and
growing in alfalfa.
Price of this tract is $3.50 per
acre. This is an investment that
will make some one some money.
We have 200 head OF fine reg
istered cattle to sell, and would
like to find ssabout ten young
farmers who own their own
farms to buy 20 head each OF
these cattle. Here is anioppor-
tunity for you to get into thor.
oughbred stock. We will sci
them toyou for cash, or on easy
terms, or place them with you
on shares.

About Sugar Bsets.

I have been raising beets for
fifteen years.. said j. j. Turner.
manager Of the land department
of the United States Sugar &
Land company this morning. and
have never lost on them vet.
Sugar beets pay better than wheat
and take it year in and year out.
they are a great deal surer. The
tonnage this year was not large
but | expect to put in u big acre
age again next year. The leaf
blight troubled my beets to some
extent this year but | do not think
this will affect the crop another
year. 1t has heen my experience
that it is not likely to occur in
the same sections more than one
season. When | was in Utah. the
blight troubled one season, so
much so that many fields did not
average over five tons to the
acre. The next year there was
none and it did not bother again
as long as | was there. At Sugar
City it was noticeable one season
and at Rocky Ford it affected the
crops another season but in both
places the result was the same as
in Utah. | do not expect to see
any in the fields in this section
next season"-Gardtn City Telp.
