John Roberts of Watkins, Schuyler

chased from Angelo Dupree, d junk dealer
an old pump for ten cents. 1t was ap-
parently of no value, but he though,
there might be some parts that he could
use i'm his business. When Mr. Roberts
and his assistant took the pump to ono
of the wells they were drilling and started
breaking it up they were greatly surprised
To see gold coins drop out of the holes
they made. They at once finished the jof
and found $3.50. nearly all in twenty-dol-
lar gold pieces. Who the pump belonged

how long il had been there is a mystery

races on mile tracks will have an effect
in stopping that form of racing, although
il is not to be expected that it can be
wiped out of existence by any association
legislature.
Preparations for the national shows con-
time to engross the major part of the
attention of manufacturers and agents
and the placing of agencies and sales al
retail are in general receiving less atten-
ton than heretofore. This does not apply
to town cars, which. on both imported
and American chassis, are being disposed
of With considerable freedom in the large
trading centerS. Factories in general are
working To their capacities. and in some
places with day and night shifts with lit
tie popular fear of overproduction. The
general settling down of business to COM
mercial lines seems evident, and good re-
suits are expected with the opning of the
spring season, which, weather conditions
permitting, ought to be somewhat in ad-
vance of that of previous years.
The extent TO which the automobile is
being recognized as a necessity on the
farms of the west is indicated by the fact
that in central Kansas alone more than
6o0 motor cars are owned by farmers. A
dozen years ago the farmer in this region
who owned an extra team and had a
spring wagon had the standing of man
of means in his community. Now those
who then looked covetcusly upon the
spring wagon are driving about in auto
mobiles.
Orders for at least 100 of the gasoline
vehicles for spring delivery have been
placed i'm Kansas City and Topeka. Kan

and this has contributed largely to the
welcome given the automobile by those
who live in the state.

So keenly is the automobile felt to be
an agricultural essential that agitation
has been started both in Kansas and Mis-
souri, to have instruction given at the
uses and adaptabilities of the motor car
The agricultural school Of Iowa at Ames
has already decided to have short win
ter course of instruction of this sort.
The students will as Il preliminary be
taught the structure and operation OF
gasoline engines and will learn the many
ways III which such an engine can be
made use of to make farming easier and
more profitable. Then they will be tn
structed in the dismantling. rebuilding
and operation of motor cars. so that they
may become skilled operators of such
vehicles, which, the state educational au-
thoritieS are convinced, will perform a
large part i'm the development of the
farming interests in the next two decades

establish an adequate system for
protecting the countless army OF

Among other innovations, children
suffering from tubercular infection
are to be segregated and provision
made for their special education.
Parents can assist materially in
this work. At the first sign of a
cough or cold steps should be taken
to check it at once. A simple rem
cdy and one that is easily within
the reach Of all is the mixture Of a
half-ounce of Virgin Oil of Pine
compound pure with two ounces of
Glycerine and eight ounces of good
whisky. In place Of whisky, fire
ounces of Tincture Of Cinchona COM
pound can be used, If desired, with
equal effect. The usual dose is a
teasp onful every four hours, but in
the case of young children smaller
dose can be given 1t is better to
purchase the ingredients separately
and prepare the mixture at home.
