Warning to Dairymen.

We have repeatedly warned the
dairymen that the oleomargarine law
is likely to. be amended next winter,
and that the amendments proposed
will destroy the value of the law, SO
far as concerns the protection of dairy
products. Again, we ask you-have
you written your congressman about
it? Do you know his views? Does
he know what you want him to do IN
the matter? Does he know what you
are going to do to him In the cam.
paign next year If he doesn't give you
a square deal? This is no joke. 1t
is a serious proposition, and no time
is to be lost if the oleomargarine law
is to be preserved in its present form,

Bees in America.

Bees were unknown to the Indians,
but they were brought over from Eng
land only few years after the land
ing Of the Pilgrim Fathers, 1t was
more than two centuries after the first
white invasion of New England, how
ever, before modern beekeeping began
The industry of the present day dates
from the invention of the movable
frame hive by Langstreth in 1852.

BELLS OF MEXICAN RANCH.
Date from the Sixteenth Century and
Highly Priced by Indians.

The ranch of Jocotlan, belonging to
the Indians of the district. comprises So
600 hectares of very rich land. The
pride of the Indians is two old bells that
hang in the tiny churchyard. They date
from the year 1850 and, it is rumored,
are cast with gold and copper and silver.
They bear the date and some words in
Latin. Of their history nothing IS
were cast up by the sea or taken from
one of the old Spanish galleons, as Jo-
cotlan is only a day from the coast. This
immense ranch has history. After
the war of independence it was handed
to the indigenes of Jocotlan, who now
number 200 This gift was further rati-
in 1857. Many have desired to get these
bells, but the Indians will not part with
them at any price-Autlan corr. Mexican

Are Farm Land Prices Too Hight
How long will the price Of farm
lands continue to increase? Just so
long as the price of farm products con-
tinue to increase, and these prices Will
remain firm so long as labor mas
steady and profitable employment. In
no other country in the world Is Ia
Dor so we'll rewarded as here. Where
prices are low, wages are necessarily
low. The man who receives liberal
returns for his work can buy hber-
ally, and can pay fair price. There
seems to be no probability that In
dustrial conditions will be radically
changed in this country soon. the
people generally are too we'll satisfied
with them. Good markets may, there
fore, be expected to continue indefi-
nitely.
Farm lands which may be relied on
to product satisfactory crops of grain
and grass are not selling too high.
Land which, with proper management,
will produce from so to 100 bushels of
50-cent corn per acre is well worth
$3.50 an acre or more. There is large
amount of such land in Kansas and
adjoining states.
The sure way to increase the value
of land is to increase its productive
ness. Under existing conditions prices
will take care of themselves. The
days of large SURPRISES are past. De-
mand crowds close upon the heels of
supply. Mouths are multiplying faster
than food for them.-Kansas Farmer.
