The family was worth not less than
I S35,ooO.
As was being whirled back to
town in the car on Saturday after
noon to catch my train, I could
not help mentally figuring out the
apparent financial worth of these
people. First, there was a farm Of
800 acres that could not be worth
less than 500 an acre, and much of
it was worth SO or SIS. At 500
this would total SCI, 600. The cat
tie value estimated conservatively.
Without hesitation l should say
that this property around the place
would certainly inventory $4,000
or 81, ,ooo-I should estimate at
S4 900. They had abou; 81 900
worth Of horses, and 81, 200 worth
of poultry. The personal stock
and implements were in as good
condition. I came back with this
idea in mind-that il I ever went
into business, il would be into
some business where l had some
thing to sell to farmers. I am GER
tain that any business based upon
their trade would be far more GER
tain of return and less liable to
fiuctuation than dealing with any
other class of people.
The Holstein cattle were the
property of the wife. She said she |
got her start by buying a COW in
Illinois for $500. She now has
herd worth several thousands of /
dollars. She has sold calves two /
weeks old for as much as $3.50 each.
Here is another illustration of
their business-like character. They
had seen a notice in the paper, that
a piece of land was to be sold on
to satisfy a judgement.
They were familiar with the land
and decided some one should at
tend the sale and bid it in, if it did
not go too high. However, ON
Saturday morning they heard the
had been satisfied and
he sale called of.
Water was pumped on the farm
" a twO-horsepower gasoline en-
zine.
To some these figures may seem
but l assure you l
lave telephoned the bank and
earned that the cost of it must
lave been twice that. Then l
hould Judge they had S5, 900 to
10, 600 cash available.
l have told all these things
ust as saw and heard them and
S they impressed me considerably
With the business acumen of my
osts. l referred to the Patten
7heat corner last spring and asked
tit had benefited the farmers much.

see an attorney and the lawyer wants ten dollars to defend him. Mir Si- dell says it is his rooster and it is worth ten dollars. but if he has to give the lawyer ten dollars he might just as we'll lose the rooster in the first place as to spend his time around the court room. Also he would save the roOster's feed Mean time it has not been figured out where the county will get off if it keeps on feeding the rooster. for the sheriff is not authorized to Q. K. the Chinaman's bill for chicken feed If the rooster is sold to a butcher he will not bring a quarter of ten dollars and everybody will lose mon ey.
 The rooster is having a good time and enjoys being petted and admired.

The rooster in question is either the defendant or anl exhibit in a notable chicken ease that has somehow got into the courts and is having the dcils own time trying to get out again.
 Originally Fred Sidell owned a Wyandotte rooster and sold him to a Freuchman who in turn sold him to a man named Clark. The rooster dis appeared from Clark's possession. When Clark went to the fair he look ed over the poultry show and in Si- delrs exhibit he found what he claims to be his rooster; anyhow it was the rooster in question and Mir. Clark alleges recognition of identity though whether the rooster gave him any inside information has not been learned. Sidell was arrested and
