FENCES AND FEED GONE.
Farmers in Burned District Near Abb
lcne Had Hard Luck.

Abilene, Kan, March 2s.-One of
the items of loss in the burned dis
trict northwest of here was about 20
miles of fence which will have to be
rebuilt. Stretches of "a mile have only
three or four posts standing. On the
Hansen ranch five miles of fence will
be rebuilt.
Practically no hay, kaff1r corn or
alfalfa is left in the district.
Frank Sullivan says he did not lose
all his stables. Fire caught them but
was extinguished.
The fire followed hedge rows from
pasture to pasture, which made it diff
ficult for the fire fighters to control it.

QUINTER A GROWING TOWN.
Lots of Building and Immigration in
Cove County.


Quinter. Kan, March 29.-One of the
best known citizens of Cove county,
who has resided in the county for more
than 20 years, says: Cove county
with less than 5000 population raised
in 1909 more than a million and a half
dollars worth of grain, not to say
anything about the stock, or butter,
eggs and poultry" He says the past
year was not an average of what the
last nine years has been doing for
another county in the state, taking
population into consideration, that can
say as much as this claim for Cove
county.
Quinter seems to be scooping all 9TH
err towns in Cove county so far as
building is concerned. The two lumber
yards have contracted with the dray
line for unloading during the year, in
carload lots. not less than $50 cars. And
this is outside of the business the mer-
chants are doing.
Since the first of February there has
been unloaded at the depot here not
less than 40 carloads of immigrant
goods.
The population of Quinter is rapidly
elm bling up to 400, showing an increase
of about 800 in the last three years.
In the building line the town shows
great activity. There are no less than
% buildings completed and under con-
struction since the first of the year.
These include the modern residence IF
DR.. D. r. Stoner at a cost of about
SO 500, the E. L. Wickizer house to be
built at a cost of $4,000, and the NJ. V.
Springer residence cost $4,000. In the
business district the new brick bust
ness building of ]. Z. Springer cost
about $500 and the brick store of
Howard Turtle will cost $4,000. The
Presbyterians are building church at
a cost of about $4,000, and the Church
of the Brethren (Dnkards) are erecting
one at a cost of $500.
The wheat crop of last year tributary
to Quinter is estimated at 225,0 900 BUSH
els, OF which 100000 bushels have been
shipped out. The two elevators have
already bought about 900 bushels of
corn. 1t is claimed that a majority of
the farmers tributary to Quinter are
DunkardS. They have proved to be
thrifty lot of people. splendid citizens,
and successful farmers. The majority
of them are wheat raisers, and they
pay little attention to raising cattle
and hogs. Many of them own a half
section and more of land. Their church
here has a membership of $50 and rap
idly growing
In regard to standing up for one an
others best business interest, it is only
necessary to mention the case of J. E.
Springer. Two other firms handled
furniture in connection with other
business interests. ]. E. Springer came
to town from the farm, put up a good
substantial building and put in an ex-
elusive stock of furniture. The other
firms went out of that line of trade, and
the result is that the Springer furniture
store is a credit to any town.

Herington, Kan, March 29.-Few of

COUNTRY DRAINED OF HOGS.
Packers Can't Get Enough-Are Not
Curing Any at Present.

Wichita, Kan, March 29.-The To-
cal packers are up against it in condi-
tions that hardly again in a lifetime
may prevail. The country is drained
of hogs. They are paying epochal
prices for them, and yet they are not
getting what they want and need. They
are putting practically nothing in the
cellars. What they will do this sum-
merits a problem with them.
Just now. of course, the farmers are
in the fields, and there is always a
dearth of hogs coming to market. But
the country. They are selling the stuff
as fast as they get il, even at these
fancy prices. If there should be a
good corn crop there might be fall
hogs, but right now the situation is
not promising

three stakes to be decided this sum
mer at Saratoga will close today at
the offices of the Saratoga association
here. The stakes have a gross value

the sport, this reads like olden times.
Whether the coming meeting yields
a profit or not. all obligations will be
met promptly without cost to the
members, for Saratoga has a sinking
fund, established and maintained in fat
times with view to such contingency.

The Total Abstainer as a Good
Samaritan.

Aud it came to pass as a certain
man journeyed from the cradle to
the grave he fell among saloon
keepers, who robbed him of his
money, ruined his good name, de-
stroyed his reason, and then
kicked him out worse than dead.
A moderate drinker came that
way and, when he saw him, he
said: "He is but a dog; they
served him right. Let him die;
he is a curse to his family"
And also a licensed voter came
that way, and when he saw him he
said: "The brute! Put a ball and
chain on his leg and work him on
the street"
And a fanatic teetotaler came
that way and when he saw him he
had ompassion on him and raised
him up, assisted him to his home,
and ministered to his wants and
the wants of his family, got him to
sign the pledge and started him on
his journey in comfort and happi-
ness.
Who, think you. was the greater
friend to humanity-the saloon
keeper, the moderate drinker, the
licensed voter, or the fanatic teeto'
taler?-ReU. A. G.. Gordon IN thu

William Warns Against Beer
Drinking.

Enemies of prohibition are all
ways calling attention to Germany
as an example of the right kind of
a ~"personal liberty" country, where
bser drinking is a national custom,
and is a promoter of happiness
rather than a detriment to the peo-
pie. But now comes the Kaiser
himself condemning "the beer
swilling habits of the German
people. Writing to a freshman in
Freiburg University, who has just
Joined a students organization
noted for drinking great quantities
OF beer, he earnestly warned the
lad that the drinking habit is Sc
riously damaging not only in
dividual students but the German
nation, with the result that both
are falling behind foreigners, par
ticularly the Americans and the
English, who, in consequence OF
their more sensible ideas regarding
drinking of youths, show in later
years much greater power of re-
sistance in the battle of life. The
Kasier has set a splendid example
by refusing to have alcoholic
drinks OF any kind, a big help tc
the cause of temperance in Ger
many.-Herdld and ~Presbyter.

that the people are more indus
