horses were tied to the hitching rack
on South Sixth street. near Frey &

Of the most daring ones of its kind
that has taken place here for several
years. 1t was at first supposed that
the animals had been ridden away by
"hoboes' and would be turned loose
after a short time TO make their way
back TO their owners the next day.
This theory has now been dispehed
and there Is no longer any doubt that
the horses we're taken FOR keeps
A report was received from Wet

daylight the previous morning, but an
Investigation of the matter by the au-
thorities failed to establish any clue
to the identity of either the horses or
their riders The police authorities

better. Notice surface planted crops.
II Slere is plenty OF moisture on the
start they will grow right away from
lister planted stuff. Why? Because
the soil in the bottom of the lister
furrow is cold. So do listing early,
work it down and list again. Either
list in the same place or split the
ridges. Try both. Or use your own
method. But get to stirring that soil
TO warm it up. Cold listed ground
thins many a good stand.
In some other places where there
is less rainfall than in Western Kan
sas, better crops are at present GER
tainIy grown. Lack of rainfall is not
a fault of Western Kansas. If it
were We could not better the cOndi-
ton. The fault is that the winds, the
high altitude and the bright, clear
days make the evaporation very great.
Evaporation is the drawback and one
that can be largely overcome. How
would you stop evaporation from
tub? Why, cover it up. You can
stop evaporation from the soil to
wonderful degree by covering it up
with a loose layer of dirt; that is by
cultivation Keep the lid on the
moisture, should be the watchword OF
Western Kansas.
Sometimes you work the ground TO
Iiberate plant food, sometimes to loos-
en- the soil, sometimes TO warm it,
sometimes to kill weeds, always to
save moisture. If any one wants to
learn from you the secret of farm
ing "Out West" put him on culti-
Gator. Make the boy learn to read
from a cuItivator catalog. Get enthu-
siagtic and start in teaching yourself
and everybody else this spring when
it will do so much good. Don't waste
all the winter snow. Get the fields
worked up on top, not ground fine.
loose and warm and clean early, and
get cheerful looking at them
Then do not plant too early. Save
moisture now, wait for warmer wealth

After they are growing cultivate
