!. THE ABILENE MANUFACTURING COMPANY
ROOSTER DAY PROVES All bs5j
SUCCESS AT MANCHESTER

Manchester. May is: Booster day
brought d crowd to town to enjoy
the ball game, balloon ascension and
merry-go-round. AT the stores some
splendid bargains brought the Iner-
chants a busy day. An interesting
bali game between Industry and
Manchester was viewed BY an en-
thuslastic crowd that defied the dust.
Industry earned the game with a
score Of 3 to i. The balloon ascen-
sion had to be put off until evening.
They tried to iii the balloon and
the wind blew It against one Of the
supports and tore a long slit in It.
The merry-go-round proved consO-
lation for the young people.

FISHED ALL DAY AND 4 gEpa
CAUGHT ONE SMALL FISH.
Fish Wouldn't Bite for Talmageites
at Chapman Greek.

Talmage, May lS.--This warm
July weather we are having now
propagates thousands Of fishing feveI
germs daily. The whole. swarm
alighted at Talmage yesterday and
spread the disease among eight Tai
mageites. They piled into two au-
tomcbiles and went to Chapman
creek where they ,fished All day,
Craw dads and turtles were numef-
Gus; but the fish would not bite.
When the fishermen returned home
the citizens OF .TaImage gathered
a round the automobiles expecting to
see a string Of fish that would have
relegated into oblivion the catch Pc
ter, John and the other disciples
made. But alas. only one small fish,
four inches long, was in evidence.
However, the fisehrmen claim that
they did catch many big fish but
they got away. Their story may
be true but the people OF Talmags
say they are from Missouri and win
have to be shown.

WHY NOT 60 "BoosrISGg"
Commercial Club. Should Tour thu
County.

The Market Day sales the mer-
chants are having have proved sue
cessfui in drawing large crowds Of
farmers to Abilene to trade. Why
wouldn't It be a good plan for the
commercial club to tour the county
and advertise these market days
more extensively, Other towns In
central Kansas have been doing Y.
Abilene has plenty Of automobiles
to take such a trip. 1t has a good
band that could play at the DIFF
ferent towns while bills were being
distributed. Abilene also has talent
ed speakers who could deliver short
addresses, telling the advantages in
trading at Abilene.
Such a trip would prove success
full in advertising the business
firms In Abilene and would increase
the crowds at Abilene on market
days at least rs per cent.

That expression was uttered 10
Abilene ss,s9s times today, The
temperature reached % above TO-
day in the shade and with q hot south
wind one had q right to think he was
roasting. Not many men kept on
their coats and even the most timid
discarded them today. A regular
parade Of parasols was on the streets
to-day. The women's hats this year
do mot have the broad merry widow
rims to shield their faces from the
sun and the merchants are expecting
q great rush on the sales Of nmbrei-
las.
Yesterday was one Of the days
during which two kinds Of tempera-
lures existed, one the sensible and
the other the actual temperature.
Although the actual temperature did
not 60 above the 80 mark the sensi-
tive, according to remarks gathered
on the streets, went above the 100
mark and perhaps more.
The dry weather continued over
the entire state yesterday and today
with no rain reported from any KAN
sas station. The temperatures rang
ed from SO to Oh over the state,
but owing to the extremely high
sensible temperature It seemed as
though the mercury was lowering
about the 100 mark In all portions
Of Kansas.
Summer weather similar to that
of the Kansas temperatures prevail
ed from the Rockies to the Atlantic
coast. West Of the Rockies the wea-
Their was much cooler and freezing
we're recorded in south
vest Colorado and Nebraska.
The areas Of low barometric pres
,nrs have been moving to the north |

and have caused rain along the Can
adian boundry from the Pacific
,oast 10 the Great Lakes.

Dr. Carroll pointed ont that the

as the Peninsula and Eastern Shore,
and which is only the beginning of a

scribes at length the experiments
made on the railroad farm at Bacon,

out into a farm. In the two years
that the railroad has owned the place,
the land has done wonders and the
crops this year were splendid.
The booklet is to be distributed
