Mcfarland & Sons
Rockville Booster Notes.

We learn that E. B. Lusk purchas-
ed the Marion WEIGH farm near this
city. II is a small farm but fine
one, and we are sure Mr.. Lusk got a
bargain.
While on his way from a coal bank
near Appleton City last "Wednesday,
Ed. Ritchey had a serious incident.
His team became frightened, ran
away and threw him out of the wagon.
He was pretty badly bruised up, but
we understand is getting along nicely
under the care Of DR.. Short.
We learn that the fishermen are
having hard time keeping out of the
way of the fish in the back water.
Shack Rain is reported to have caught
over 500 pounds Saturday, among
them being three catfish weighing
over As pounds. II is said the fish
ing never was better than the last
few days.
When the other guy is telling you
what some other state can do for you,
take a look at this. Meyer & Walker
threshed two acres of wheat for Fred
Heiserman that made y bushels.
This was on measured ground and
was new variety with which Mr..
HeirSerman was experimenting.
They also threshed IA acres for A. K.
Taylor which made an average OF
81 IL bushels per acre. The quality
in both instances was of the best also
which counts great deal. These
gentlemen know how to raise wheat,
as they made 20 bushels per acre on
the same ground last year.

In Justice to Christian Scientists

Recently there were published fool
ish and untruthful statements con-
corning Mrs. Mary Baker Eddy,
leader of the Christian Scientists
throughout the world. An effort was
made to represent Mrs. Eddy as ill,
incapable of taking care of herself, or
even dead. II is surprising and
shameful that newspapers should thus
encourage the bounding of a woman
who has brought happiness into the
lives of hundreds of thousands of hui
man beings, who has the devoted at
lection of an enormous following.
Mrs. Eddy is to-day past lightweight
years of age; she works with those
that assist her in her very great UNI
dertakings; she controls all Of them.
She is entitled to, and she has the re-
spect and admiration of millions OF
human beings who, though they do
not share the belief in Christian
Science, yet render the tribute OF
profound respect to the leader to that
elief.-New York Journal.

Obstruction From Within.

The St Adams, Vermont, a stall
wart of stalwart Republican papers,
has this to say Of the present attitude
of that party's leaders on the tariff:
"And the whole situation simply
amounts to this, that if out of this
long continued and earnestly-insist-
ent popular demand for a statesman
like revision of the tariff the Repub-
lican party is to offer the people
stone when they have asked for
bread, then the elections for congress
in 1910 and the election for the presi-
dency in 1912 will tell in unmistak-
able terms how the indignant people
of this country rebuke the leaders
that have been faithless to their inter-
ests. And the Republican party can
thank Aldrich and his associates for
its humiliation. There need be no
demagogy about such tale as this, no
appeal to prejudice, no play to the
galleries. If the events Of the last
seven or eight years have clearly
demonstrated anything at all to the
intelligent comprehension of the great
mass of American voters, It is the
greatest obstacle to the triumphant
craftsmanship and wise administra-
ton of government of the Republican
party has not been obstruction Of
political opponents from without, but
the short-sighted stubbornness and
arrogant greed Of the interests
Within"

Automatic Speed Controller.

Washington, Aug. A device has
been invented by which the speed of
automobiles may be automatically
controlled. A report to this effect is
made by Vice CONSUL H. X. Bying-
ton, of Bristol, who describes the de-
vice as having been attached to Eng
fish machines.
The attachment removes the clutch
when the speed of the car slightly ex-
ceeds the arranged limit. When nec-
essary the brake is automatically APP
piled so that the speed is reduced to
just below the arranged limit.
The brake is then quickly but gent
ly removed and the clutch again put
in. The clutch is put in action or out
of gear in an instant. 1t fits in q
compact aluminium box and takes uI
but little space.

Bates Co. Normal Club.

The students of Bates Co. met in
Room sixteen last Friday evening.
Supt. L. F. Robinson, of Rich Hill,
presided over the meeting, as both
president and vice-president were
absent. The attendance was smaller
than usual. This was probably due
to the lectures at Pertle Springs at
the same time, Carry A. Nation being
an attraction.
No business of any importance was
transacted. After a short recess a
literary program, consisting of read
ings by Miss Ruth Fergus and Miss
Ruby Ricketts,, was rendered. The
readings were excellent.
The question, SHOULD the Com
mercial Studies Have Place in our
High School," with Mr.. Bigg on the
affirmative and Mr.. Chamberlain on
the negative was next on the pro-
gram. Mr.. Chamberlain was absent,
and Mr.. Biggs gave his views in favor
of the affirmative, which were very
logical, indeed. He emphasized the
necessity of a course of study, which
contained the subjects of practical
value. Subjects which have only
disciplinary value might well be left
out of the course, which should fiji
the student for the problems of life.

Woman Lawyer Turns Farmer

From the Toledo News-Bee.
Des Moines-Grace Ballentyne,
lawyer, is a woman who does things
with vim.
She won noted case in the SUI
preme court of her state last winter
against an array of high priced legal
talent of the opposite sex. But be-
cause of her long, hard fight and the
rush of business that followed it her
health failed.
Her doctor ordered immediate out
door work. Did she 60 out into the
back yard and YEARLY pull weeds out
of her flower bed? Oh, no-not she!
She bought l,000-acre farm near
Wallace, Idaho, and with the help of
one man she is doing all the work on
that big acreage.
Her first crop is now ready to har-
vest, and it she finds 1t pays, and that
she is a successful farmer, she'll
stay.
If it doesn't pay she'll stay anyway
until her health comes back and she
can return to her practice of law-for
she's plucky and unafraid is this little
woman of large brain.

Starting Alfalfa.
A Missouri subscriber writes:

A Missouri subscriber writes:
81 am expecting to sow some alfal-
ia about August 18th on some land
that has been in clover and timothy
two years. If the ground is well
cultivated and worked down in a good
seed bed before sowing, do you think
| am likely to have any trouble with
the clover and timothy, or with blue
grass and white clover coming in and
iniuring the stand of alfalfa?
AS a rule it is much better to grow
one or two crops of corn on tame
grass sod ground and follow with a
crop of oats before sowing alfalfa
not only because the weeds and tame
grass are less likely to bother the al
falfa, but because much less work is
required in preparing the proper
seed bed. II our correspondent can
not crop this land for two or three
years before sowing and wants to get
alfalfa started on it, then he should
pillow as soon as the hay is taken off
and put in all the spare time he has
working down the sod and preparing
a good seed bed. If he does not do
this he will be disappointed in his al
falfa inside Of one or two years. Wal

Whites grove, east of town, on last
Thursday, was well attended and all
report a glorious good time and mag
nificent dinner. The children were
called together by the band, at the
band stand in south east corner court
house yard. They were formed into
companies and preceded by the

and then loaded on hay frames and in
other conveyances. At the grounds
they played youthful games, had mu-
