Women Who Are Envied.

Those attractive women who are
lovely In face, form and temper are

them. A weak, sickly woman will be
nervous and irritable. Constipation

wretched complexion. For all such,
Electric Bitters work wonders. They

statues to them.
Gutenberg was the first city to erect
a monument of this kind. The upper

FARMING IN MISSOURI.
Comparisons Between This and
Other States That Should
Interest All.

Missouri has more farms than any
other state In the union. Within her
borders are 2S4,SS6 farms, which
average 100 acres to the farm. The
improved land to each farm averages
seventy, five acres, or 62h per cent.
These figures are based on the last
census report. According TO the re-
port OF she Commerce and Labor
Bureau, the farms OF Missouri are
worth S34 10 an acre.
Among the states OF the middle
west, Missouri has smaller farms
than many OF them. Ohio is An ex'
ception, where 276,000 farms only
average eighty-eight acres each. Hi
nois has 264.O 900 farms, OF 124 acres
each. Iowa has 22S,000 farms, OF
ISL acres each; Kansas, $4,000
farms, of 22S acres. In the United
States farms average LAG acres, but
only 80 per cent is improved land.
+. B. Mumiord, professor OF AMI.
NAL husbandry In the college OF agri-
culture in the university OF Missouri,
has prepared some interesting facts
about the amount OF live stock there
is on an average Missouri farm. This
Is considered a great mule state, and
yet there are four times as many
horses as there are mules in Missouri.
The equipment as Professor Num-
lord gives is Is cattle, four horses,
one mule, twenty.six hogs, five sheep
and a fraction OF goat.
"Fully one third OF the state'spop.
ulssion depended directly orindirect,
ly upon the animal productsfo for their
existence" says Professor Mumford
in discussing Missouri as a live stock
state. The income is $3.50, 100000
annually. Fiity.five per cent OF the
farmers have their principal income
from live stock. In fact, more thai
$6OO,OOO,O00 are invested In farms
live stock and equipments for stocl
raising"
Missouri stands third in the middle
west as the state having the largest
number OF renters on the farms. ILL
nois farms are titled BY 6f per cen
owners and 80 per cent tenants. Th'

Medora, N. D., Sept. 16.-The feud
which started at Beach during the
last campaign, is apparently going to
be kept up indefinitely. Recent de-
velopment in this prosperous, little
citv give evidence that the dove OF
peace is sadly needed there.
During the last campaign Beach
split politically. The principal fight
was on the state senatorship, between
J. A. Ferris of Medora, and A. L. Mar
tin of Sentinel Butte. Ferris expected
and in fact was promised the support
of Beach. About the time the candi'
dates announced themselves, J. w
Brinton purchased the Beach Chorni'
Gle, at that time the only paper at
Beach, which was to have supported
Ferris, but under the new ownership
threw it's support to A. L. Martin
This was an unexpected move, and
one night later in the absence of the
proprietor, the Chronicle office was
taken possession of by number OF
Ferris supporters, who claimed the
deal was not a bona fide one. After
an all night dispute, in which all the
lawyers and citizens of the town, as
we'll as the sheriff and his deputies,
took part, the newspaper was again
turned over to the editor, Mr.. Brinton.
The trouble resulted in Ferris and his
supporters starting another paper,
The Beach Advance. When the votes
were counted, after a heated newspa-
per war and campaign, it was found
that the Ferris faction we're, or had
been, unable to deliver the votes, and
Martin was elected. This was the
cause of much soreness and bitter
feeling among the losing faction.
The next disturbance was the post
Office appointment. Beach had been
rapidly growing into thriving town,
and the postof1ice had been raised to
a third class office at salary of ST.
500 per year. To start the ball roll
ing, Editor Brinton became a candi-
date for the Office and had the support
of the winning faction, while F. E
Heath, a Ferris supporter, was can
didate' for re-appointment and had the
support Of the Ferris supporters. In
the meantime, Brinton. secured the
support of the United States senators
and congressman, and the Republican
central committee, but Ferris taking
advantage of the fact that he hunted
buffalo with President Roosevelt some

The president when he first reach
ed the park went down on the field
and shook hands with the members
of both teams. Proceeding then to
the reserved section in the stand, he
held a reception during which he
met "Pop" Arson, the famous old
Chicago player; Garry Herman, pres
ident of the National Base Ball COM
and John A. Heydler, presi-
dent of the National League. Mr..
Heydler was invited to a seat just
behind the president and throughout
the game Taft frequently referred to
him for expert opinion on some of
the plays and decisions of the UNI
pires.. Charles w. Murphy, president
of the Chicago club, in which the
presidents brother is part owner, also
was with the president for part of
the game.

twenty odd years ago, recommended
Heath, whom Roosevelt appointed.
The appointment of Heath was held
up in the senate until Roosevelt went
out of office. Shortly after President
Taft went into office Brinton's ap-
pointment was recommended by the
Congressional delegation at Wash
ington, but at this point the Ferris or
Heath faction filed charges against
Brinton's character with the postofice
department, and his appointment was
held up while an inspector went to
Beach to look the matter up. The in
spector's report indicated Brinton,
who was appointed, the appointment
confirmed and he took charge of the
Office
1t was predicted that this would
settle the trouble, but it now seems
that it was only the cause of more.
At least, things seem to be getting
hotter there since Brinton became
postmaster. His contemporary, The
Beach Advance, made some anti
Brinton comment on the appointment
which renewed the war between the
two papers. Later, farmer, Mr.
Stockwell, entered the newspaper
fight as champion of the Ferris fac
ton, and publish an "open letter. in
the Beach Advance, to Mr.. Brinton,
which was of very personal ;charac-
ter. This was answered by the
Chronicle editor in still more per-
sonal strain, which led up to fistic
encounter between Stockwell and
Brinton. The latter seems to have
got the best of the physical argument
and now Stockwell and his hackers
have resorted to the courts, and
Brinton is held to the district court,
under bonds, on two charges, that or
criminal LIBEL and assault with in
tent to kill" On top of this Brinton
is sued for $4,000 damages. Stock
we'll wants $4,000 for personal injur-
les, and another party, who had Brin-
ton arrested for libel, wants $4,000
for damages to his character.
Brinton threatens to retaliate by
bringing criminal and civil actions
against his prosecutors, and the fight
goes merrily on, while Beach gets the
advertising, whether it be good or
bad.
At any rate no one denies but what
Beach will be lively town next
spring when the primary campaign
opens.
