Some clever street hats we're seen
with a bright, ingenious ribbon bow
as their only trimming.
The muffs are certainly huge this
season, almost as big as steamer

Grinding Alfalfa Meal.
Wiley Jourual.


The Denver Alfalfa Milling and
Products Co.. with mills at Wiley,
Hartman and Bristol, are the pio-
neers in the grinding of alfalfa
meal in the Arkansas Valley and
are the largest producers of this
product in the world.
The combined capacity of these
three mills in twenty.four hours is
800 tons. and at the prevailing
price of hay this would distribute
among the farmers of these three
places about $500 daily. About
seventy-fve men are employed in
the three mills and just that much
is added to the prosperity of the
towns where these laborers reside.
Last year the combined output
of these mills was about 800 cars
This year the number will be in,
creased 10 1000.

Benny lad with gold laced coat

You have checked my hat for me
All this summer Let me see.
When twas new you first began
To care for 1t. little man:
And each day when ! came In
You received it-with a grin
AT the first. and then your smile
Faded wholly after while.
Day by day you took the hat.
Day by day your hopes fell fiat:
/ could almost know the time
You despaired about the dime
Still with plucky hope you came
To receive 1t. just the same.
And with optomistic faith
Which changed TO wistful wrath
or smile, you greeted me
As politely as might be-
Sometimes you were very grum
When at noon you saw me GOMEZ
Sometimes you were blithe and bland
As you took II from my hand
| could see what was your bent:
First, the subtle Establishment,
Then the naughty air and stern
AS though you tip would spurn,
Then plying glance, whose aim
Was to make me yield through shame
Well, my lad, II / each time
Had have yielded up that dime,
by now had paid to you
What the hat cost when twas new
Still I've had this two months use
OF the hat; that's my excuse.
Coax the smile now to your lips:
Here. I'll give you all the tips
OF the summer. as to that
You, my lad. may keep the hat!
