Attention Farmers!
Electric Power For Pumping.

Without water your fertile valley lands are dormant,
fail to respond to most industrious cultivation and con-
tinues to tenaciously hold the hidden wealth locked with
in the soil. With water the same fertile lands are no
longer dormant and no longer fail to respond to indus
trioHs cultivation, but will bring forth wealth in a most
generous manner. Golden fields of grain, green fields of
alfalfa and acres OF orchard will appear where now the
lands are barren. This is the law of nature. To elevate
the water from it's present level to the level of your lands
at the lowest cost SO the lands may be irrigated is the
problem confronting you. The solution of the problem
is the use of electric power for pumping.
Electric power is the cheapest power for pumping and
all power purposes for the farmer aud all power users.
II is not only the cheapest, but Is the safest and the most
reliable and convenient power that can be used. I'm addi-
ton, it is the only power that can be applied directly at
the point where the power is wanted, viz: AT the pump
shaft with direct connection to the shaft saving the
large loss of power due to friction in betting, pulleys and
shafts. We are ready to demonstrate the truthfullness of
these statements to all corners.
We are prepared to furnish power for the irrigation
of 10000 acres of land the coming season and will in
crease our plant capacity as the business demands.
Lines will be extended for a distance OF % miles from our
power plant where the business warrants the expense OF
construction. We are not justified in incur1 ing the cost
of line construction and other necessary expense unless at
least 5000 acres will use electric power the coming
season.
We will not ask the farmer to subscribe for any of
our stock, or to contribute or donate to us, or to he at
any other expense than the cost of the line from the main
transmission line along the public highway over his prem
Uses to his pumping station, the necessary pump and
motor equipment Tor his well and a concrete weir for
measuring the water. The contract must, however, be
for a sufficient period of years to justify our outlay and
in such form as to follow the land regardless of change OF
ownership.
Those interested are requested to call at our office or
write, furnishing the following information:
a. Name and Post Office address.
ca Number of acres owned.
(3) Number of acres to be irrigated.
a. Location and description of land.
(5) Size of well and actual or estimated flow and
length of well casing. If well is to be drilled SO
state and when it will be completed.
(6) Distance water is to be elevated.
ca Distance from our power plant to land along
public highways.
49, Names and addresses of others who require and
now want power for pumping.
Remember it takes time to construct lines and make
installations and it is only a few months until you will
need the water. If you are interested you should act at
once.

Give Your Child.
\. !, I rem < a Chance

There are so many advantages
to commend the Pianola Piano that
1t is difficult to say which is the
most important.
One of its strongest recommends
tions to parents, however, is set
forth in the following remarks
made by-a recent caller at Aeolian
Hall. New York:
"Myslittle shaver isn't seven yet,
but he has a better appreciation of
music than l had at three times
his age. He has chance I never
had to hear good music, In our
Pianola Piano. When am playing
1t he will sit quietly beside me, and
when / have finished, 1t is aston
fishing how often he will say. I like
that, papa about music that would
seem much too old for his under
standing. If the PianOla Piano had
accomplished nothing else, should
consider myself repaid many times
for my investment, in the good it
has done my boy"
This experience is typical. The
presence of the Pianola Piano in
the home makes 1t possible for any
child to grow up with cultivated
taste for music
Do you not think, in view of the
fact that the Pianola Piano per-
forms all of the offices of the ordi-
nary piano in the home-makes
every member Of the family a
pianist-know music such as you
would have been glad to know
that 1t is time for you to investi-
gate this most popular Of all
pianos?
Don't confuse the genuine Plan
ola Piano with the other so-called
player on the market. They have
not the wonderful expression de-
vices of the Pianola Piano. We are
exclusive distributors.

painful bruises and scratches as he

The bridge was 40 feet high and
about 60 feet In length and was
thoroughly consumed. Mystery sur.

fire was started. It is understood
that no train had passed over II

SEAMEN SCARCE IN ENGLAND

LONDON, Aug. 21.-Ten years
ago 1t was estimated that while
during the preceding half century
the British merchant tonnage had
almost trebled, the number of
British seamen engaged in the mer-
camille marine had decreased by
% per cent and the boys and young
men by IS per cent. In 1857 there
were 96,914 petty officers and sail
ors, not including Lascars, employ
ed in the mercantile marine Of the
United Kingdom; in 1878 it was
estimated that there were $4,000;
in 1899 the estimated number had
fallen to 60,7O9, while In 1901 there
were only 1920.

WATER HOGS
CAUGHT

The effort to check the growing
waste of water in the lower sec
tons of the city by burying the
hose in the grass at night has had
a good effect. 1t is believed by
the water department that hun
dreds of persons were engaged in
this practice, and the fact that the
water department put the inspec-
tors on night duty has caused the
water hogs" to desist to some ex-
tent.
The waste OF water at night had
grown to such an extent that the
pumps were required to run as fast
as in the daytime, and the water
was disappearing without anything
to show as to where it went.

Match Came When She
Wished to Save Some of
"Dot" for Child.

NEW YORK, Aug. 21.-The ar
rival Tuesday on the Kaiser Will
helm der Crosse of Countess
Gizycki and her daughter Felicia,
l3, accompanied by Joseph Medill
Mccormick, ended a story of inter
national romance and unhappiness
that began in America and had it's
climax at the throne of the Rus
sian car.
The countess was formerly Miss
Eleanor Patterson of Chicago,
daughter of one of Chicago's rich
est men, Robert w. Patterson. She
met Count Gizycki in Washington
one week and married him the
next. The engagement was against
the wishes of her family, but they
finally relented and her wedding
"dot" was one of the largest ever
carried to Europe by an American
bride.
The couple lived in Paris, st.
Petersburg and Vienna, the count
spending money lavishly. Three
years ago the daughter was born,
and then the countess curtailed her
husbands vast expenditures, de-
claring something must be left for
the child.
Immediately the count sued for
separation and alimony. The count
ess brought counter-suit. A divorce
was granted her. But the count
hurried from Paris to St. Peters
burg with the child, and the count.
ess sought to recover it.

to her cousin, Robert s. McCor.
mick, former American ambassador
to Russia. Hes went direct to the
car, who finally decreed August s
that the mother might have the
| child upon the payment of large
sum of money.
To whom the money went no one
will say. The baby was restored to
the mother in Vienna August 8, and
she came with it to America.
