GOOD CROP OF CLOVER SEED.
Franklin County Farmer Threshes s.
Bushels From Pastured Tract.

Ottawa, Kan, Sept &c. l..
Finch, farmer. of the eastern part of
the county. brought part of his prod
uct of clover seed to the city. He had
forty-two bushels, which he placed in
storage against a possibly better mar
ket. Based on Kansas City quotations,
clover seed of the best quality should
be worth SO a bushel here Mr.. Finch
threshed about fifty bushels from 35-
acre tract this year.
Mr.. Finch did not follow the usual
custom in making his crop. 1t is the
second annual crop of clover that pro-
duces seed. The general custom is to
cut the first crop for hay. Mr.. Finch
pastured it instead. In June he took
his stock off After cutting, the grass
was left on the ground until the seed
polls were in the right condition for
threshing. The stalks from the ma
chine were not removed from the field,
but are left for fertilizing purposes.

Several With Good Records Have No
Opposition.

Ellsworth. Sept. IS The two old
political parties in Ellsworth county
don't believe in the hand-to-hand con-
hict campaign. In several of the Of
fees there will be but one candidate.
w. d. SturgiSS, Democrat, has no oppo-
sition for treasurer. He is running for
the second term. The Democrats made
no nominations for probate judge, the
present incumbent being A. S. Chase,
who has filed the office since 1892; nor
register of deeds, this office being filed
The office of clerk of court, which has
been filled by ]. M. Wilson for the
past 16 years, has also no opposition.
The record of these three officials is
first class to receive such splendid en-
dorSements, not only from the Repub-
licans, but the Democrats as we'll.
Nor is this all. Dallas Grover is serv-
ing his fifth term as county attorney of
Ellsworth county. Every election his
majority grew larger. He had made
| a model official, and this year his
friends ran him for judge of the Thir-
tieth judicial district, comprising the
counties of Ellsworth, Lincoln, Ottawa
and Saline. He was nominated, and
he will be elected. Dallas Grover has
lived in Ellsworth county for nearly a
quarter of a century and his friends
are confident that he will fill the Of
fee of district judge with fidelity and
honor. For the Office of representa-
tive the Republican nominee, L. H.
Westerman. has no opposition, the
Democrats being as we'll satisfied as
are his Republican friends 1t is
doubtful if there is another county in
the state with a similar political rec
ord as can be shown in Ellsworth
county.

A WORD TO MOTHERS
DOES YOUR DAUGHTER NEED
MORE STRENGTH?
This Tonic Treatment Solves One
of the Most Pulling Problems
for Parents of Girls in
Their 7 Gems.

A growing girl who is confined within
doors too much of the time, who over
works, overstudies or is depressed by
worry or care, needs the tonic treatment
If she would avoid injury to her health
which will mar her whole life.
In addition to a proper tonic the patient
should have nourishing and easily digest
ed food, pure air and sunshine, rest and
sleep. Parents whose daughters grow de-
bilitated as they enter their teens should
not watch them fade and droop but
should ensure their healthful womanhood
by the treatment which is endorsed in
the following statement from Miss Frances
r. Roche, of No. 1926 E. Evans avenue,
Pueblo, Colo. Miss Roche says:
81 suffered from weakness for nearly a
wear when l was changing from girl
hood to womanhood. I became all run
down in health and had but very little
blood. 1 did not have any strength and
could hardly drag around. There SEEM
ed to be no life in me. Every month
passed through intense suffering. had
dizzy and vomiting spells and constant
headaches. l was obliged to give up my
work for time.
81 took medicine from a doctor but
without relief. Through friend advice
l gave DR.. Williams Pink Pills a trial
and was completely cured. I am well
now and have had no return of my
trouble. My Dlother has since used the
pills as tonic and thinks as highly of
them as do"
Dr. Williams Pink Pills are guaran-
teed to be safe and harmless to the most
delicate constitution. They contain no
morphine, opiate, narcotic, or anything
to cause drug habit. Owing to their
bodybuilding property they are invalu-
able in the treatment of such diseases as
an@mis, green sickness, rheumatism, and
the after-effects of fevers.
A new edition of our booklet, Diseases
of the Blood" giving more information
about the treatment will be sent free on
request to anyone interested.

druggists, or will be sent, postpaid, on
receipt of price, so cents per box; six
boxes for $3.50, by the DR.. Williams
