WE WISH YOU ALL
A Most Happy and
Prosperous New Year

Allow us to thank all of you for your most
liberal patronage during our short business
period in Topeka. We are more than elated
over our success and hope to merit continuance
of your business relations and friendship. We
think that we have been very successful in dem
onstratng that cash buying and cash selling
means saving to you.
The Topeka state journal. [volume] (Topeka, Kansas) 1892-1980, 1908-01-01
This NewYear's Day 1908

Would be an excellent time for you to resolve to
buy your merchandise and pay cash for it. If
you would do this and keep an itemized state
ment Of your savings you would be indeed agree
ably surprised at your savings when the year 1909
rolls around.
Ours is a strictly cash store---we buy for cash
and sell for cash. BY buying for cash we get all
the possible discounts enabling us to buy cheaper
than any credit house. We sell for cash, doing
away with;a lotsof bookkeepers and bad accounts
which credit store must make up some way, and
their only way is in the prices on merchandise
That's the reason our prices are lower; that's the
reason our store has taken stand among the
foremost ones of Topeka in so short time;
that's the reason we will with your patronage
grow larger than ever in 1908.
Thanking you again.,
We remain yours,

A Kansas Boy Took the Honors.

West Point, N. Y, Feb. 15.-The
first honor cadet of the graduating
class of West Point is Glen Edgerton,
son of j. E. Edgerton, superintendent
of city schools of Manhattan, Kan.
Edgerton, who was only II years old
when appointed to the academy, is
the third youngest member of his
class and has consistently led his fell
low cadets throughout his four years
course. Before entering the military
academy he had taken a four years
course at the State Agricultural col
lege at Manhattan. The class of 1908
at West Point was graduated early
this year on account of the need of
officers in the service. Ordinarily the
exercises would not have been held
until June. Secretary Taft presented
the diplomas to the graduates.

RICH HILL BANK ROBBED
Missouri Bandits Get Safely Away
With $4,000.
Although Citizens Were Aroused by
the Explosion They Failed to
Stop Robbers Flight.

Rich Hill. Feb. 13-Twenty thous-
and dollars was secured by robbers
early Wednesday morning from the
Farmers and Manufacturers bank here
The robbery, as far as can be learned
was committed by three men who es-
capped. They wrecked the safe, vault
and damaged the building badly with
dynamite. The bank carried insur-
ance for $4,000.
]. w. Jameson, cashier, gave this
story of the robbery. 1t was commit
ted about 1890 Wednesday morning
There were two or three explosions.
The first evidently was sufficient to
open the vault and safe. The safe
contained $4,000. $4,000 in currency,
$4,000 in gold and $4,000 in silver
They took all but the silver and when
citizens who were attracted to the
scene by the first explosion arrived,
the men were then in the act of max
ing their escape. A moment later
there was a second explosion, more Sc
we're than the first. This demolished
the safe and vault and caused $4,000
damage to the building. The second
explosion seems to have been set of
by the robbers to cover their escape.
The robbers made toward the railroad
tracks and are believed to have es-
caped on q handcar. They got away
before any concerted move to follow
them could be made and it is not even
known in what direction they went.
At daylight officers in all the sur
rounding towns were notified to be on
the alert and an active search for the
robbers was begun.
Five hundred dollars reward was
offered Wednesday for the arrest and
conviction of each of the robbers.
Monday at Willard, Mo-, small
town south of here, robbers secured a
large amount of money from the bank
and escaped on a handcar.
Jefferson City, Mo-, Feb. 1S.-Gov.
Folk Wednesday offered a reward OF
$500 each for the capture of the men
who robbed the Farmers and Manufac'
turers' bank at Rich Hill early We'd
nesday. Likewise the governor offered
a reward of $500 each for the capture
Of the FIVE men who robbed the bank
at Willard Tuesday morning. The
Rich Hill bank was looted of over $780,
900 and the Willard bank of $4,000.

FOR EXPERIMENTAL FARMS
Congressman Scott, of Kansas, Has
Plan to Help Farmers.
Would Have Practical Demonstrations
by Department Experts of Best
Methods of Raising Crops.

Washington, Feb. 15.-Representa-
tive Scott of Kansas, chairman of the
house committee on agriculture, has
conceived novel plan which he be-
lieves. If adopted, will enable the farm
ers of the country to produce better
and far larger crops that heretofore.
Mr.. SCOTS proposition Involves tho
establishment of 100 experimental
farms of one acre each in every coun'
ty in group of four western agricul-
tural states for the purpose of giving
the farmers a practical demonstration
of the best methods of growing dllfer
ent kinds of crops. 1t is proposed that
the lands for this purpose shall be fur
nished by the farmers themselves and
that they do the work of cultivation
under the direction of the experts OF
the department of agriculture. No ad-
ditional appropriation from congress
will be required to test Mr.. Scott's
Ian, it is explained, as the agriculCur-
al department now has the requisite
number of experts to carry out the
plan.
Mr.. Scott declares that enough
money is now being practically vast
ed by the department of agriculture
in sending out farm bulletins and 9th
err government documents to carry out
this scheme. He says that much val
liable information has been developed
by the experts in these publications,
but their contents are so little under
stood by the farmers that they do not
derive the knowledge from them that
they should as to the best cultural
methods to grow corn, wheat, hay and
the other regular crops.
Mr.. Scott believes that bureau
should be established within the de-
partment to act as a sort of middle
man between the scientists and the
farmers. In certain emergencies this
work has already been done by the
department. 1t has never been regard
ed, however, as a settled policy OF the
department.

Washington, Feb, 14.-General de-
bate on the legislative appropriation
bill was brought to a close in the
house of representatives Thursday af-
ter a session full of interest and en-
tertainment. Several speeches were

half. Upon the conclusion of his re-
marks he was accorded an ovation by
democrats and republicans alike. Mr..
Clark arranged the republicans for
their attitude on the tariff question

there would be a revision of the tariff
after election was simply in prepar-
alton of another stupendous confidence
game on the people"
