but for the gray hairs that announced
the approach Of loss of anergy and
youth. Who makes the best impress
sion on the employer seeking help
the man with gray hair, or the man
with youthful head of hair? The use
of Q-Ban Hair Restorer can make
some people look as If twenty years
had been rolled back for them
One writer testifies to the fact that
a two-weeks' course restored the few
gray hairs he had to the original col

do the same for you after using six

wAKEENEY TRANSPORTATION
Fine Shade Trees and Beautiful Homes
Are Responsible.

Wakeeney, June 1S.-Only few
years ago one could see Wakeeney
miles away from a great distance as
they approached the town. In those
old pioneer. days there wasn't tree on
the town site. Later years the people
commenced to plant shade trees, the
rains became more frequent as the
country developed, and today there are
close to 10000 shade trees growing
thrifty on the townsite of Wakeeney.
Lawns then were covered with buff
falo grass while today the blue grass
and trees have supplanted them. 1t
looks if most every family in the town
has pride to improve and make their
lawns attractive. 1t has truthfully been
said that Wakeeney is the tree city
west of Ellsworth.
The locust is the prevailing shade
tree, for it seems to be we'll adapted
for growth in Wakeeney and Trego
county With her miles of cement
walks and thousands of young shade
trees growing, together with her well
kept lawns, is about as pleasant and
attractive sights as any town can wish
for. And this is not only a boast of
the townspeople, but all visitors as
we'll.

posin' that AID. should get a draw at
the end of ten rounds. eff Nelson
should put Wolgast away it wouldn't
hurt Ad.-he never gets hurt.
Wolgast evidently is figuring on buy
ing another diamond or two and says
to himself, I'll fight the Battler and
pull down about 1900 or $4,000, and if
1 lose it won't hurt because went out
of my class to fight the champion
lightweight of the world
That's good way to figure. If
dub meets a champion, the dub is not
supposed to have a chance-not the
smallest kind of a Iook-in. But the
real wise boxer will say that even a
dub may Slip one over; or that the
champion or topnotcher may lose on a
foul; or break an arm or a leg; or drop
dead. The dub might make. a wild
swing and accidentally-mind you, acct
dentany-land on the champions jaw
and in a wink be the best-ever.
No, sir, from here Wolcott will make
nc mistake if he fights Battling Mel
son. But why stop at the Batter?
Why not fight Sam Langford, Jim JEFF
fries or even Champion Jack johnson?
He's got the same kind of a chance
with them as with Nelson. Think it
over,

SHORT OF HELP AT HARMED.
Banker Moffet Writes of Needs OF
Pawnee County Farmers.

Larned, Kan, June 1s.-Topeka
Journal, Topeka, Kan. Gentlemen
have received many letters from
various parts of Missouri and eastern
Kansas, asking about our wheat crop,
when harvest will commence, and if
we would be short of harvest hands.
From the appearance of things at
present, our harvest will commence
about the 25th of this month. 1t will
be necessary for the farmers of
Pawnee county, to import at least
two thousand men and five hundred
horses, to take care of their wheat.
Pawnee county will have one of
the largest wheat crops they have
eyer raised. Conditions have improv-
ed wonderfully in the past ten days,
and the farmers are really surprised.
We will want about one hundred
women to cook and assist in the gen.
eral homework.
For information address Moffet
Brothers,. National bank, Larned,
Kan. Yours respectfully,
| A. G. MOFFET, Pres.

HOGS BROUGHT 81 PER CwT.
Reno County Farmer Tops the Mar
ket in Hutchinson.

Hutchinson, June 1s-S s.
Graybill bought of Frank Dan
ford a hundred head of hogs for ST
a hundred pounds. It is the highest
price ever paid in Hutchinson for
hogs, or at least for this large num-
Der, according to Mr.. Graybill. They
were bought for shipment to Albu-
querque, New Mexico. Mr.. Danford
lives in Hutchinson but the hogs were
raised on the Danford farm, which Is
half section four miles west of town.
This is very good proof that it is
worth while to raise hogs to sell.
There is money in the business here
in Kansas and still more this year
than before. To be sure corn is high
priced, too, but lots of alfalfa meal
and mixed foods are used now in fat
tening hogs or any other stock for
the market.

Missouri Pacific to Start on To-

Track Will Be Relaid and Road
bed Reballasted.
MANY OTHER CHANGES
Passenger Service to Be Chang
ed for Benefit of Public.
Other Items of Interest in
Railway Circles.
MANY OTHER CHANGES

Fort Scott, Kan. June 1S.-f the
plans of the Missouri Pacific officials
here are carried out. the work of re-
ballasting the roadbed between this
CITY and Topeka will be started early
next week The work has been
planned for some time, but on account
of the vast amount of work being
done in other sections of the system
in Kansas, the Kansas, Nebraska &
Dakota line has been neglected.
This stretch of track has long been
one Of the neglected portions of the
Missouri Pacific. The line has been
in service over twenty-five years and
in some places scarcely no work Of
maintenance has been performed in
that time. In many places the track
is in such poor condition that trains
are unable to exceed a speed of eight
miles an hour.
The work of Improvement will be
extensive. New rails-seventy-fiv
hounds to the yard-wiII be laid. New
ties are scattered along the line in
mauv places now and many more
ties are stored in the local yards
which will be transported to the base
of operations as fast as they are
needed The local yards have a
large number of carloads of ballast
stored which is to be used for the
work on this line.
The work will be commenced at
this end of the line, where the traffic
is heaviest. The service on the To-
peka end of the line is light and this
part will be the last to be recon-
structed The entire line however
will be improved and ready for
heavier train service by the last of
October.
The Missouri Pacific is planning
some big things for this line. There
are a number of good towns between
Fort Scott and Topeka which should
have better service. and the Missouri
Pacific will give it to them. There
will be number of extra freight
trains run over the road for the &C
commodation of the shippers. And
the passenger service will I'M
doubtedly be improved. A chair car
will be added to the passenger train
and the schedule will be rearranged
to give better service to the different
towns. No intimation however has
been given out as to the nature of the
changes.

Award is on the Panhandle line of the

From the standpoint of present
knowledge the future of Saratoga
looks very bright. We do not think
this future" is very far away. 1t
looks very much as though the year
1909 held great things for Saratoga
and the entire Saratoga valley. If
you have money to invest you will
not go wrong if you put it in Sara
toga lots, or in ranch property that is
tributary to this place. 1t is perfect
ly safe to say that you will not buy
Saratoga lots at any less price than at
present, nor will you yer be able to
buyranch property for a less price per
acre than the water right is worth.
That is what many ranches are nov
being offered for-but they will not
be going at that tate in the year of
our Lord, 1910. Just remember this
prediction, made by the Sun on the
25thday of March, A. D. 1909.

THURSDAY, MAR. 25, 1909


The visit of Hon. Clifford Pinchot
to Denver to address the Legislature
last week proved to have been a very
successful affair. While he found
much opposition i'll Denver he found
many stanch friends, and after his
debate with Ammons he had many
warm supporters. After the Denver
debate he visited Boulder, Glenwood
Springs and many other points, always
by invitation, aud at each place he
was the guest of honor at banguets
prepared especially on his account.
1t is very evident from the newspaper
reports Of his reception, as he travel
ed through the state, that his visit to
Colorado will do much good. That
state has been, as usual, very much
stirred up over and very much oppos-
ed to the forest reserve policy. But
the sentiment is changing there very
rapidly and we may now look for a
more sane and temperate discussion
of that subject in the future. All
that portion known as the western
slope, has been, all along, very
friendly to the forest service.
