YYIGH priced lands, high priced
labor, high priced feeds, and
- the present high cost OF liv-
ing demand the closest attention to
the cost OF production Of the various
farm products to insure the farmer a
reasonable profit upon his investment.
One Of the most important, II not the
most important. problem he must
solve in the production OF farm prod
ucts is the question OF efficient and
economical motive power.
The high cost and scarcity OF labor
have created a demand for q kind OF
machinery that will increase the work
ing capacity OF one man. This de-
mand has been met by increasing the
size OF our farm machinery and con-
sequently the weight has been in
creased. This necessitates an In
creased amount OF motive power for
each machine.
The question then arises: shall
this extra motive power be supplied
by an extra number OF horses or by
the same number of heavier horses?'
When one considers the fact that the
cost of maintaining a horse does not
increase directly with the increase in

size and weight, or, in other words,
that Il does not cost as much to main
tain one 2.000.pound horse as 1t does
two 1,000-pound horses; and when he
also considers the cost of extra har-
ness, extra stable room, and the extra
care and time necessary to handle an
extra number OF horses to meet the
demand for a greater amount of mo-
tive power, it can be seen very plain
~ that the cheapest form OF extra
motive power may be obtained
through an increase in the weight OF
our horses rather than through an in
crease in the number Of lighter
horses. Progressive farmers have
come to realize this fact and are grad
ually substituting larger horses for
the smaller ones which have been so
common on the average Kansas farm
in the past. The farmer who wishes
to substitute the heavy horse for the
light one 10 supply his motive power,
must resort TO one Of two sources to
procure them. He must either go
into the open market and purchase
them or raise them himself. During
the past year hundreds Of farmers
have been the keenest bidders in the
large horse markets for the heavier
class of horses. The farmers of the
localities where these farmers live
have forced them to realize and ap-
preciate the fact that the heavy draft
horse is the most efficient and most
economical form of motive power
available for the performance Of farm
work, and II will be but short time
until We will be face to face with the
same conditions in regard to econom-
ical production of farm products that

After they had waited and waited,

after much laborious effort, managed
to loosen the screw and shove the

Rebel and Federal Meet After Battle

KANSAS CITY.-A message telling
N how Tracy Richardson. a Kansas
City boy, met the Mexican federal
soldier who fred the bullet that
wounded him at the battle Of Villa
Lopez, was received the other day
from Addison Hughes, a correspon-
dent with the rebel army of General
orozco. The dispatch, which is dated
from Jiminez, Chihuahua, Mexico,
reads as follows:
This morning a wounded federal
was laid on an adjoining cot. The
federal prisoner was moaning. Rich
ardson awoke. peered through the
dim candle light and said in Spanish:
"Hello, are you badly hurt?"
pretty badly" answered the man.
Federal or rebel?" queried Rich
ardson.

you?"
Rebel" said Richardson. 1--WE a

CALF LAKE CITY.-Two unmarried
y young women, masked and heavily
armed, robbed the stag car on the
Shriners' special train at 2 o'clock
the other morning a few minutes aft
er the train pulled out at Salt Lake
City. Several shots from revolvers
were fired at each entrance to the
car and fifteen badly frightened men
on the inside began a mad scramble
to find their reviewers and to conceal
their purses. Their revolvers, how
ever, had been taken from the car
while they were uptown celebrating.
AS the men made dash to get out OF
the car they were met at the doors
with threats and a liberal display OF
revolvers.
I'VE are not looking for money. We
are looking for bachelors" the two
women explained.

Genuine Maple Sugar.

There are few people outside the
maple sugar making districts. says q
writer in the Country Gentleman. who
really know what the genuine article
tastes like. The superior flavor thus
spoken of is probably due in a de-
gree to the same causes that make
strawberries eaten OF the vine and
cherries consumed ON the tree so de-
lectable. The writer quoted, however
puts some Of the blame for the poor
flavor Of commercial maple sugar on

DECISIONS
n LOOKED FOR

Washington Jan S--With more
fthan one hundred cases under con,
sideration, the supreme court of the
United States is expected to hand
down many important decisions to-
morrow, when ii convenes after the
holiday recess.
More light may be shed on the anti
trust problem by decisions in the st.
Louis bridge case; the hard coal''
suit against the principal anthracite
coal-carrying railroads and coal-pro-
ducing companies Of Pennsylvania; !;
and he cotton corner" case. arising
out oi transactions on the New York

The validity Of several federal
laws may be determined Foremost
among these is the employers iiabil-
ity law. which has been under consid-
Grafton by the court since last Feb
ruary A second decision may be
rendered regarding the validity of
the "Carmack amendment to the in
terstate commerce laws, whereby ini-
tial carriers were made liable for dam
ages or loss of goods whether occur
ring ON their lines or those of con-
Meeting carriers.
The fate of score or more of state
laws may be decided OF these, the
constitutionality of the Ortgon initia-
tive and referendum system has at
tracted the most attention, because
the ruling of the court will be appli-
cabit to claws in nearly half of the
states of the union.
Foreign corporation laws of Kansas,
New York and Texas may be passed
upon. Other laws under considera-
tion are the hours of service law"
for railroad employees in the state of

may be decided such as the validity
OF the transfer Of allotted lands by
