carry out the mission style of archi-

it was considered that with but LITTLE
extra expense the plans as submitted
by Mr. Cook could be altered to give
the proper effect.
No decision was made in respect to
the material to be used, but there was
a strong sentiment in favor of a
rough cement or stucco finish
The suggestion was made that the
front of the building be wired so that
if 1t is desired an attractive electrical
effect may be had during the evening
hours. 1t is not the idea however, to
put UP an elaborate building of an

SOUNDS WARNING NOTE.
HOnnelI, Pioneer Banker, Says Farm
ers Are PIunging Too Much.

T. C. Honne1l, the pioneer farmer and
banker of Brown county. came to To
peka today with a note of warning fol-
the extravagant and speculative farm
ers of northeast Kansas. THE farm
ers in my section of the state" declar-
ed Mr.. Honnen. ARE plunging toe
strong. They presume too much upon
the continuance of the present pros
porous times. They have no care for
the morrow. The wheat crop in Brown
county this year is almost a total fail
ure. Unless there is a good corn crop
there will be breakers ahead for the
farmers who have gone in debt on the
strength of future and continued pros
perity.
Il tell you never saw anything like
the good times we have had the past
few years. A farmer comes to the bank
and wants to borrow $500 to buy a team
of mules, or 5000 for a horse, or 5000 to
pay a couple of hired men for two
months work. or 800 for something or
other. Many thousands of dollars in
notes have been borrowed during the
fat years, and what if they fall due in
a lean year?
Land has steadily advanced in price
is too much for farm land, even in
Brown county. a garden spot for farm
ing. 1t is hard to raise a crop on an
acre of land that will pay profitable in

half dozen or score of automobiles
standing along the road or by the old
hitching rack where the buggies and
wagons used to stand. Every third

They are common now in the country

ct believe it is all right for the farm

the corn crop fails it means hardship

trim their sails in time might avoid the
wreck.
