DALHART WONDERS
WHY THE ACTION
Railroad Stops Cattle Feed
ing Privilege at That
Place.

Daihart. Tex. April 27.-The Dalhart
commercial club had an interview with
general superintendent Smally, of the
Rock Island company, who Is making
an official visit here, with view 10
having feeding privilege of Is days re-
stored 10 Dalhart, and it Is hoped the
result will be favorable
During the past year there have
been hundreds of carloads fed here en-
route from Arizona, Mexico and New
Mexico to points north Recently this
privilege was revoked by the company,
for what reason Is not understood by
shippers, as the privilege is still grant
ed TO territories in Colorado and south
Texas points that are reached by the
Santa Fe and other roads from the
southwest.
Since Dalhart has been recognized as
central feeding point in the past
few wears and has handled thousands
of cars of cattle and will entertain the
Cattlemen's convention next March, II
is not understood why Dalhart shouid
not have any special favors that are
granted to other cities.

Do farmers eat the proper
sort of food?

The farmer of today buys a much
larger proportion of the food that goes
on the table than he did ter years ago.
It's good thing that this is so because
he has great variety to select from.
He should, however, use great care
in selecting for the best results IN
health and strength.
The widespread tendency in the city
70 increase the amount OF Quaker
Scotch Oats eaten is due very largely
TO the recent demonstrations by scien-
tifc men that the Quaker Scotch Oats
fed man is the man with greatest
physical endurance and greatest men
tai vigor.
Farmers should give this subject
careful thought and should increase
the quantity of Quaker Scotch Oats
eaten by themselves, their children
and the farm hands.
Packed in regular packages, and in
Theoretically sealed tins for hot
climates. 81

The fire was discovered about / 80
o'clock, William Gilbreath, employed
in The Council, turning in the alarm.
The first indication of the fire came
when the front windows of the store
were literally blown out by the force
of the accumulated heat and gas. It
was about o'clock Sunday morning
before the fire was finally under con-
troll, and not before the building, fire

piece of land, was arrested Tuesday
by Sheriff Olson on complaint Of his
wife, Libby Lyons, who charged that
her husband had assaulted her and
struck her on the head with stick
causing an ugly wound, and her head
proved the charge.
Lyons was brought before Justice
B. A. Aaen, where he plead guilty and
received a sentence of thirty days in

prosecution.
Lyons has the reputation among the
people who know his of being a bad

said, often abused and beaten his wife
and even threatened to shoot her and
kept loaded revolver secreted. On
it from its hiding place during fit
of rage, but the wife had anticipated
his action and removed the cartridges.
Lyons does not appear, from what
could be learned, to be a drinker or

The following account Of a man

Nicholas Wood was a Kentish yeo-
man. "Be it known to all men to
whom these presents shall come"
writes John Taylor. that l, John Tay-
lor. waterman of St. Savior's in South
wark, will. with plain truth, bare and
threadbare, treat Of the remarkable &C.
tons Of Nicholas Wood.
HE hath eaten whole sheep at one
meal: pardon me! l think he left the
skin. the wool and bones: and present
~ after he hath swallowed three pecks
Of damsonS. Two loins Of mutton and
one loin Of veal are but three sprats
to him. Once at Sir William St. Ledg-
er's house, so valiant and staunch Of
teeth he showed himself, that he ate
as much as would suffice thirty men.
Zone morning l sent for him to the
inn to eat breakfast. He lad already
eaten one pottle Of milk. one polite of
pottage. and bread. butter, and cheese
He gave me thanks and said that if he
had known any gentleman would have
invited him to breakfast he would
have spared his meal at home Never
theless he would do me the courtesy
to show me some small cast of his Of
fee. Whereupon summoned the host
ess and commanded that all the vic
tuals in the house he laid before my
guest.
1.-THE inn was slenderly provided. but
six-penny loaves were mounted two
stories high like a rampant. three six
penny veal pies, one pound of sweet
butter, and number of other dishes
were set out. all OF which were quickly
brought to nothing"
