ence of a homesteader. 1t is not
encouraging in its quotation of re-
suits; but it shows that the writer is
now on the road to improvement
that he will soon realize increased
yields. His experience is but one
of hundreds. The News wants such
experiences-favorable or otherwise
in order that it may beg pointing
out errors and emphasizing the bet
ter methods, be truly helpful to
agriculturists.
Mr.. F. w. Bowen,
Dear Sir:
Agreeable to your request will
give you some of my experience as a
farmer and homesteader. / came to
northwest Meade county from Smith
county Kansas In the fall of 1907
with very little to 60 on, having
bought a REIMBURSEMENT here the
spring previous. on which there was
sowed 90 acres of wheat, 90 acres of
whicl. | cut, the same threshed out
226 bushels. In the same year l
lost corn crop completely in Smith
county where land is now very high.
This kind of talk does not sound
very encouraging but it is truth
nevertheless.
My wheat in 1909 sowed in stubble
IN the ordinary way made about 4
bushels per acre. Speltz 2219 acres
made IS bushels. The speltz ground
was plowed mostly in February
much of it was narrowed as soon as
plowed and it would have made
more if | had sowed one half bushel
to the acre instead of a bushel. A
small strip in the same field sowed
with half bushel to the acre demon
strated the correctness of the above
conclusion.
had some experience with Indian
corn in 1908 and 1909, in the first
year mentioned l planted about Is
acres, the ground squirrels took 8
acres completely and badly dam
aged several acres more, however
10 acres that the squirrels failed to
get made 10 bushels per acre. The
most of this land was prepared by
double disking and narrowing. |
planted with the lister and used the
harrow three times and the cultivator
once in tending this corn.
The 1909 crop was planted in a
similar way a cultivated more thour-
oughly but the yield not so good
the season being a little dryer. My
last crop of millet sowed early on
old ground made good crop.
am a firm believer in summer
culture, | also believe the man who
continues to farm the ordinary way
is doomed to failure as farmer.
Just word about planting corn and
kindred crops. l think the lister is
the tool and there are several reasons;
in the first place you plant your seed
in the clean ground. The lister in
throwing the dirt either way carries
the weed seed out and away from
your seed bed, another important
reason is that corn planted in this
manner does not succor quite so
much or if it does you have better
chance to cover the succors. | men
ton this subject of planting because
of the fact that many people by OPP
posing the lister stand in their own
light. l have used the lister since
Bryan began running for president
and have observed that it grows in
favor throughout the semi. arid west.
In conclusion l will say that |
have not mentioned the above yields
because l think them heavy but to
comply with Mr.. Bowens request to
give him my experience as Meade
county farmer.
Respectfully,
LEWIS MOORE.

THE DELIVERY MEN.

A correspondent who evidently SYM
pathizes with the delivery men, asks
the publication OF the following:
And yet it's well to bear in mind this
simple, kindly plan-be thoughtful at
this season OF the good delivery man.
His days are filled with hurry, and
his evenings are perplexed. He has so
many trips to make that he is sorely
vexed. lie adds an extra hour to the
morning, cold. and still, and at night
he's out an extra hour his mission to
fulfill
He doesn't grumble or complain,
and yet, we may believe, a family longs
for him at home, when falls the low
ering eve; the supper's on the table
and perhaps an eager lad is ponder
ing, and worrying and watching for
his dad
And so the gist of these remarks is
simple as can be: The duty that is
yours may be accomplished easily.
When you have made your purchase,
one among the eddyDg throng, just
say, IT'S not so very large--I'll take
it right along"
A thousand times ten thousand
weary steps will hus be saved and
thoughtful paths for others feet will
be securely paved. And into all the
wool of life you'll weave a kindly plan,
by thinking of the hardships of the
good delivery man.

GERMS IN her SYSTEM
Every Woman Should Read This Ad-
vice and the Generous Offer That
Goes With Il.

The number Of disease peculiar to
women is such that we believe this
space would hardly contain a mere
mention of their names, and it is a
fact that most OF these diseases are
of catarrhal nature. A woman can
not be well IL there is a trace Of ca
tarrh in her system
Some women think there is no help
for them. We positively declare this
to be a mistaken idea. We are so sure
Of this that we offer to supply medi-
cine absolutely free of all cost in every
instance where ii fails 10 give satisfac-
ton. or does not substantiate our
claims. With this understanding, no
woman should hesitate to believe our
honesty of purpose, or hesitate to put
our claims to test.
There is only one way to overcome
catarrh. That way is through the
blood. You may use all the snuffs,
douches or like remedies for years
without getting more than temporary
relief at best. Catarr! in general is
diseased condition of the system that
shows locally most frequently in dis
charges from mucous membranes
Local treatment should be assisted by
internal treatment for the general dis
eased condition IL complete cure Is to
be reached. That internal treatment
should be scientifically devised and
faithfully administered.
Rexall Mucu-Ton is scientifically
prepared from the prescription of an
eminent physician who for thirty years
made catarrh his speciality. This rem
edy Is admirably adapted to the treat
mont of the catarrhal ailments of
women. 1t purifies and enriches the
blood, tends to stop mucous discharges,
aids in removing impurities from the
system. soothes, heals and strengthens
the mucous tissues and brings about
a feeling Of health and strength.
We want you to try Rexall Mucu-
Tone on our guarantee. If you ara not
benefited, or for any reason not salts
fed, simply tell us and we will hand
back your money. Rexall Mucu- Tone
comes in two sizes, so cents and $780,

Remedies only at--The Rexall Stores.
