little on rising Monday morning,
but later accompanied Mrs. Miller
on shopping trip for the purchase
of Christmas presents. AS they
were leaving one of the stores he
was overcome with faintness. He
was at once assisted to the carriage,
but passed away a few moments
after he entered the vehicle.

Columbus, Ohio, was telegraphed
and is expected to reach Daytona

PEOPLE LIVING IN VICINITY OF
BLAKE.
Decorated with a tin star and a
small gun and imbued with the idea
that he is United States marshal,
James Meehan, colored, gave Dep
uty Marshal Vernon Michael and
Deputy Sheriff Gettes Long a merry
chase through the woods, under
brush and swamps in the vicinity of
Blake this morning.
The dippy negro was finally cap
tured and brought to Daytona, where
lhe has been placed in the city Jail
to await the appointment of a COM
mission to examine him as to his
sanity.
The black man is said to have
terrorized the people living in
several houses in the vicinity of
Blake recently and complaint was
made to the officers, who prompt
ly started a search for the man
and located him. The negro ap-
parently retained enough of his
reason to know that real officers of
the law were after him, however,
and took to his heels in a lively
fashion. This started a chase which
lasted for some time, but which
finally ended in the capture of the
fugitive.
In the chase the negro lost the
gun he carried and the officers were
unable to find it.

Eggs for 10c a dozen.

81 feel that there is more money in
eight cent eggs in Kansas, for instance
than in so cent eggs in Colorado. Ia
Kansas they produce the eight cent
eggs for practically nothing, while the
SO cent eggs that we produce nine times
out of ten cost us little more than 80
cents. We should look more at the cost
of the product and less at the price we
are getting for il.
81 cannot help but believe that tie
man who has been on the farm long
nough can keep down his grocery bill
with his eggs. believe that the mis-
sion OF the hen is 10 do this one thing
on the farm pay for what you eat day
by day and month by month. believe
that the poultryman who knows his bus
iness can produce eggs for less than 10
cents dozen. When eggs are cheap,
don't sell them. Either pack them or
hatch them. PROF. W.E. Yaplon.

Show Your Nerve.

We hear some farmers say that there
is no money in paying the price that is
being asked for seed wheat, taking the
chances on raising crop and then sci.
ling the crop at the price Of wheat
next fall.
We fail to understand how farmer
can reach any such conclusion as that.
The prospects for favorable conditions
for good spring wheat crop have new
er been better during the past "a years
at this time in the year than they are
now. With the heavy snow fall we
have had, the ground will be wet down
for several feet and, with only the or
dinary fall of moisture during the
spring months, there will be an abund-
ance of moisture to mature good crop
Of spring grain. The man who allows
the high price of seed to frighten him,
does not have nerve enough to make
succese Of farming in Phillips county.
We hear old time farmers of our coun
ty say that there is only one way to
successfully farm in this part Of the
country and that is to farm every year
regardless Of fears as to what the crop
season will prove and, from observation
we know that to be true. This being
true, the only wise course for farmer
is to SOW and plant no matter il the
conditions Of the spring are unfavora-
ble. but now we have a spring with as
favorable crop conditions as we have
ever had in "a years and some farmers
intimate that they will not SOW wheat
simply because seed is too high priced.
We do not profess to be weather or
crop prophet but We feel very well sat
isfied that the farmer who neglects to
SOW wheat simply because the seed is
too high priced will be eeen sometime
in next July or August sneaking around
behind the barn to give himself good
sound kicking for his folly in refusing
to SOW wheat.

Big Reservoir.

The big reservoir mentioned in this
paper two weeks ago. which is to he
built south of Imperial on the French
man river, is intended to irrigate land
in Red Willow county. 1t is proposed
to build reservoir to cover 1900 acres
to depth of sixty feet in the deepest
part, and then use theenatural channel
of the river to carry tie water down to
Palisade, where it will be taken out in
the big ditch and used for irrigation
purposes. A meeting was held at Nc
Cook on Thursday of this week to boost
the proposition. There is nothing in it
to benefit Chase county in any way. -
