MARcUSE, CALIFORNIA,
LAND FOR PROFITABLE FARMING

Marcuse Colony, located in Suffer
County, which is in the heart OF the
Sacramento Valley, is fast coming to
the front as a farming community in
which nearly every agricultural prod
uct known may be successfully raised
without irrigation.
The soil is dark, sandy loan,
sedimentary in character, level and
we'll drained 1t has the advantage
over other soils In that it is loose in
character and superior TO heavy soils
With this wealth of soil, abundance
of water, unexcelled climate and long
growing season, Marcuse Colony is
the ideal place for the homeseeker
with limited means, the worn out pro-
fessional man. or the young man look
ing for a small farm in a healthful
climate
The proximity of Marouse Colony to
Sacramento, furnishes ready market
for vegetables, poultry, eggs and
dairy products. Fruits, vegetables,
alfalfa, grains and grasses and poultry
yield large returns. The rainfall is
certain and drought is unknown.
Land is yet moderately priced, but
crop failures In other sections of the
United States will bring new settlers
in rapidly. This, together with the
holding of the Panama Pacific Expo
sition in San Francisco during 1915,
is bound to raise the price, and wbeth-
er for q home, or for an investment.
now is the time to purchase. Land
may be had in tracts suitable to the
means Of all and the results obtained
are almost beyond belief Further in
formation will be gladly furnished by

Euripides (B. c. 4sO-4O6l was one OF
the celebrated tragic Greek poets who
discoursed on music in this wise: No
one has found out how TO soothe with
music and sweet symphony those bit

misfortune destroy families; and yet
10 assuage such griefs by music were
wisdom. The music Of the GREEKS
evidently had the power to str or

PLEASE ANSWER THE QUESTION

Why is it that the Moberly Com
mercial College of Moberly, Mo, is
starting off with a heavier enroll
ment this fall than ever before at
this season of the year?
Why is it that the best firms in
Missouri come to the Moberly Com
mercial College for their bookkeep-
ers and stenographers?
Why is it that the Moberly Com
mercial College has the best reputa-
ton of any Commercial College in
the state?
Why is it that the Moberly Com
mercial College is the best school
in Missouri?
There is a reason for all this, and
the reason is that we place more
students in good positions than any
other school in the state of Missouri,
also we teach practical methods
from the outset, giving the individ-
ual student what he needs to be
able to handle the work in the of
flee in which he holds a position in
the business world. We believe life
is too short and time too valuable
for young man or woman to spend
from 9 to IL months getting a book
keeping and short hand course, also
spending FROM $125 to SITS more
for general expenses and tuition
than they will with US. Many will
say, why can we do this; plain
enough and easy to say, because we
use practical methods and adhere
to up-to-date principles, and equi-
page, and have the exclusive right
in this state to teach the famous
Byrne Simplified Shorthand and
Practical Bookkeeping, for we plain
ly believe in the old saying that
you cannot do something with
nothing" We give the student the
advantage of the same good mater
ial and equipage that they will get
in first class business office, so
when he steps into an Office he
simply continues our work.
For full particulars relative to our
new methods and short courses, we
will mail you our large catalogue
free of charge. Address Moberly
Commercial College, Moberly, Mo.

Nor Can Any One Else.

Uncle Joe Cannon hasn't damns
and sulphuric adjectives sufficient
to enable him to properly express
his contempt for Taft, and now Col.
Roosevelt announces that he has
not promised, and doesn't propose
to promise his support to Taft. Just
what Smiling Willie has to smile
over, or to be thankful for just now,
to save our souls we can't imagine.
