Obituary

William Henry Walter was born
in Henry county, Illinois, near Mo-
line March &c, I842, died at Meade,
Kansas, January 10, 1911.
Left an orphan at the age of S
years he was raised by an uncle,
James Paddleford, prominent citi-
zen of Henry county, resident of
Green River.
In 1866 he enlisted as private in
Co. c. 9th regiment Illinois Vol.
Cavalry, and did active service I'M
til the close of the civil war. After
the war he engaged in the lumber
and grain business at Victor, Iowa.
He was married to Florence Funk
at Victor, Iowa, January IL, 1871,
and after residing there several years
they removed to Rockford, Iowa,
where he engaged in mercantile bust
ness. In 1879 they moved to New
ton, Kansas, and engaged in farm
ing. During the movement to the
west in 1886 they settled in Meade
county which has since been their
home. For twenty-five years Mr..
Walter engaged in farming and stock
raising in this county. He expert
enced all the hardships and trials of
the pioneers, but being man of
courage and imbued with the spirit
of the west he fought successfully
the battles Necessary to establish a
home in a new country. About 10
months ago Mr.. Walter and family
moved to Meade, failing health pre-
venting him from further labors.
Mr.. Walter is survived by his
wife, one son, J. T. Walter of Mill
Creek, Oklahoma, and four daugh-
tiers, Mrs. ]. J. Dabbs, Kyle, Texas,
Mrs. c. S. Copple, and Misses Mel
lie and Francis Walter of Meade.
He was a member of the A. o..
U. w. Lodge of Meade and carried
an insurance policy in that order.
He helped to make the best of
the history of Meade county, and
the influence of his life will be felt
in all the years to come.

The legislature will be asked
for an appropriation for addi-
tlonal facilities for caring for the
insane. One Kansas institution
has eleven more than can be
properly cared for and another
fourteen. 1t is recommended
that instead of charging the
present institutions a new one
be established in the central or
western part of the state. We
hope to see this Legislation en-
acted. The state of Kansas has
very properly made conditions
at the state penitentiary more
pleasant and comfortable, and
this institution houses criminals.
The insane man or woman is not
criminal, but one of the most
unfortunate creatures wi t h
whom we have to deal, and moth
ing should be too good or nothing
left undone to make their sur
roundings as congenial as is pos
sible.

Starting Twelfth Year.

With this issue The n WIS
starts on the twelfth year of its
existence. For eleven years the
paper has chronicled the events
of the town and county and been
welcome visitor to hundreds of
it's best homes. 1t has kept pace
with the development of the town
and county and endeavored as
best it knew to work tor their
advancement.
About year and half ago
the paper was purchased by its
present owners and during this
time considerable Improvement
has been made in the equipment
of the plant. The old hand press
now almost relic of by-gone
days-was moved aside and a
new Babcock cylinder press, one
of the best manufactured, took
it's place; the old type was dis
carded and the most popular Gre
atoms of the worlds leading
type foundries, in goodly guam
tity, was purchased; the job
press, worn by years of constant
use was replaced by new and
thoroughly modern press capable
OF turning out work at speed
and of equal quality as that pro-
duced by any city Office. To run
these presses a first-class engine
was installed. Other material
too numerous to relate has been
added from time to time until
the plant is one of the best equip
ped in the state.
All these improvements have
cost money, good, hard cash, but
the paper has received patron
age of which it is justly proud.
The business interests of the
town have shown by their patron
age that they appreciate the eff
forts of the company in equip
ping an office capable of catering
to their needs, and boosting for
the town and county
The subscription list is grow
ing steadily despite the fact that
those who do not pay up when
a year in arrears are cut off the
list. The management and the
editor appreciate this fact and in
the time to come will continue to
further improve and enlarge the
paper as fast as business justi-
fies. We will try our best to
give you full dollars worth of
news for your dollar, and more.
1t is our desire to install a
composing machine in the office
and if possible it will be done. 1t
is up to our friends and patrons
how soon this will occur. When
ever the step is deemed advisable
and the money is in the treasury
this dream will come true, and
our desire to print bigger and
better paper will be gratlfied.
In closing we ask you to pardon
our reference to our work and
it's results. All these improve
ments did not come and offer
their services. While we have
received a liberal support and
are truly grateful we have work
ed increasingly to merit it, and
whether or not we succeeded the
effort was none the less strenu-
Gus. But it was enjoyable work
and we hope to be able to work
even harder tor the up building
of one of the best towns and
counties in the whole United
States-Meade and Meade coun-
ty, Kansas.

TREATING SEED
WHEAT FOR SMUT
Easy to Safeguard Against Disease
and This Should Not be
NegIected-Kow
II Is Done.

The sinking smut of wheat causes
considerable losses almost every
where that wheat is grown. 1t is easy
to safeguard against it, and this should
not be neglected. The seed may be
treated in several ways to kill the
spores of the disease. Any one is eff
fective.
A solution Of bluestone "copper" sui
phate) made of one pound to five gal
Ions Of water will be satisfactory. The
seed should be immersed in this So
luton for ten minutes. Skim off the
grains that float, as they are infected.
Then it should be spread out on a
floor or wagon bed to dry. Or forma-
lin may be used, making the solution
Of one pound formalin to fifty gallons
of water. 1t will take thirty minutes
for this to do the work. Hot water is
also sometimes used effectively.

FALL FLOWING
MUCH DEEPER
Greatly Increases tho Capacity OF
the Soil for Storing Up
and Conserving the
Moisture.

(By o. NJ. OLSON. Minnesota Experiment
Station.)
1t is especially urged that fall plow-
ing this year be deeper than has been
customary in most parts of the state.
Flowing to the depth Of six or seven
inches, as compared with the custom
airy four or five inches, will not only
afford more room for the develop
ment of the root system OF whatever
crops may be sown, but it will greatly
increase the capacity Of the ground
for storing up and retaining moisture,
against the necessities of what may be
another dry season. OF course, how
ever, the depth of the blowing should
be adjusted to the nature Of the soil.
The light soil of the Jack pine" farm
cannot be deeply plowed. Light soils
have this advantage, however; they
may be plowed much sooner after a
rain, and without the liability OF max
ing it lumpy or cloddy, as occurs in
the case of heavy soils, especially
those which are clayey in texture.
Deep blowing in the fall permits Of
the settling and compacting Of the
soil before the coming of the spring.
when the seed bed should be finished
with disk and harrow. The more cul.
tivation that can be given before plant
ing. the less will be the amount re-
CURED after the crop is shown.
Cultivation after planting is for the
triple purpose Of keeping down weeds,
loosening soil for the admission of
air and warmth to the roots, and Gre
ating an earth mulch which will pre-
vent the abstraction of moisture from
the soil by evaporation. Earth mulch"
by the way. is the proper term-not
dust mulch" There is such thing
as making this mulch too fine, and
thereby giving the wind spirit an OPP
portunity for mischief.

Spring Bee Escape.

to the surface of the combs, which
by the inexperienced is often mistak-
en- for mold.
The bees also must be kept dry. A
substantial hive, with tight roof,
will keep out the rain.
A few inches Of dry, porous material,
such as chaff or ground cork packed
between the cluster and the roof, will
have a good effect on keeping the bees
comfortable, allowing the moisture to
pass off slowly.
A draught would be injurious. We
advise a wind-break of some sort on
the north and west sides of the hives.
Also guard against the mice, and have
the hive entrances shallow and long.
rather than round.
Do not neglect the bees; see to it
that they have food enough and to
spare. Bees differ from other farm
stock in this respect, that they can
be given their full supply Of food at
once and they will help themselves
as their need requires. Plenty of
good food above the cluster is what
takes them through every time.

Hard to Destroy Species

very little help toward their contin-
uance from the well-meant efforts of
man to that end. In proof of this we
are told that there is an ancient act
of parliament still in force in England
lad Wales prohibiting the taking of
eggs of certain birds, of which six
kinds are expressly named, In spite
of this protecting law, four of the six
species have ceased to breed in those
countries. The indirect ways in which
such results are brought about are
shown in the destruction of the quail
in New Zealand. The birds once were
numerous; no one wished to destroy
them. But the land was burned over
for other purposes at seasons when
the eggs and young of the quail were
exposed TO destruction, and a few
years brought the species to an end.
