The Butler weekly times. (Butler, Mo.) 1881-1918, 1909-10-21

George Garrett, of Butler, Mo-, a
regular shipper, who lives in town
and also operates a farm, came to
Western Missouri from Lafayette,
Ind, little over a year ago. 1t was
something of speculation for him,
but it has turned out to his advantage.
Twenty years ago | had not heard
of the Kansas City market" he said.
"When | came here and looked these
yards over and saw what was going
on, | decided to locate within 100
miles or less of this great market. |
am about Y miles out. Since |
bought my farm have had oppor-
tunities to sell it at very nice adj
vance, but refused, and will continue
to refuse, as regard a good farm
that near to Kansas City as a gilt
edge investment. The time is COM
ing fast, when farm lands around
here will be in still greater demand.
This is bound to become the largest
live stock market in the world. We
thought few years ago that Chicago
had the lead for all time, but that
market will have to take second place
before long. The demand for land
seems to be increasing everywhere.
A few years ago we thought little
about land investments. But now
the city man as well as the man in
the country is beginning to seek land
investments. 1t is the safest of all.
Should ! get to a point where would
not care to look after my farm | will
rent it, and hold to it. Should sell
it and invest the money in city prop
erty or anything else, it would be
likely to slip away from me, while
the money have invested in my
farm is perfectly safe, and reliable
for all time. And Bates county is
good enough for me. ."-Drovers

Ad Wolgast, who detected Lew
Powell 80 easily. has come out with
L challenge to Battling Nelson for
the lightweight championship of
the world. Wolgast will fight at the
1873 pound limit, and will make a
side bet of $4,000 that he wins.
Most people on the mainland con-
slider that wolgast IL hardly In
Nelson's ciass-that Is. the Nelson
OF old. II Is thought that the Bat
tier has gone back a bit OF late. and
IN that case Wolgast might have n
chance.
But, judging by the reports OF the
fights Wolgast has been engaged In.
he would appear to lack u knockout
punch, and he cannot be considered
wonderfully clever boxer. Nelson
has a way Of boring In and taking
ell the punishment coming for
twenty rounds or so, and then fin-
ishing up his man In another fifteen
or twenty rounds. 1t is hard to see
how WOlgast has any chance OF
beating the Durable Dane.
Walgast made about $4,000 by
the Powell match, and that is more
money than he ever got for a figh'
before.

House Come from Municipalities.

More than half the membership OF
the United States senate and not
quite half of the membership Of the
house Of representatives in the pres.
ent house come from cities and towns
with more than 10000 population. OF
the 236 members of both houses who
come from cities and towns 81 are in
the senate and 1856 in the house of
representatives. or the senators SO
are from northern states and only IS
from the southern states, while among
the representatives 145 are from the
north and only 40 from the south. The
leadership of both the house and SEN
ate on the Republican side is largely
confined to men from the cities, while
the Democratic leadership, in the
house, especially, is divided among
men from the smaller communities
Sectionally the states Of Maryland.
Kentucky and Missouri have been in
cluded among the southern states, else
the representation of that region
among the members from the cities
would be still further materially re.

1t is noteworthy that of the city
membership sent to congress 1873 are
lawyers and only 6S belong to other
professions and avocations. Practi-
cally all the members of congress not
