Up north the wise ones judge of the

of the first silOs near Dalhart by Mr.
Faush, there is started an industry
that will greatly change cattle feeding
conditions in a country already noted
for its sleek stock With 40 percent
more value gained in the way of feed
units, a farmer who is already making
good cannot help DuI get enough adul-
tional returns TO make it more profit

silOs, holding 6Qetons each are but the
forerunners Of large numbers of others.
Other farmers are building ground
sfIos to preserve the full value of their
feed and forage crops While these
are a good deal cheaper their main
trouble is that it is a little harder to
get the feed out; but the returns are as
great.
It is a treat TO 80 through the Dali
hart country and note the optimism to
be found. The farmers are all busy
hurrying to set their crops gathered
before the first frost and a good many
are wondering what in the world to do
with all the stuff they have raised this
year. One runs across a farmer once
in awhile who has some OF his feed
stuff left over from last year. He has
learned how to handle the land. 10

She could not stand this sort of

AS a result of the good crops in the
Dalhart country this year, there is a
return of interest among the land conn
panies as of old. Two or three of the
largest companies that ever handled
lands in the Panhandle have resumed
operations, and carloads of farmers are
arriving twice month from the north
to view the country and crops, a large
percentage of them buying some to
stay on the land some to return as soon
as their crops IN the north can be
gathered.
German Catholic farmers seem to be
in the ma jOrity among these neWcOm-
Crs. but that is caused by the activity
and cooperation of the members of this
church. they having had experts down
from the north representing the bishops
of Milwaukee, Chicago and St. Louis,
who, after going into the disadvantages
as well as the advantages of this great
stOCk-raising and general farming
country, have given it hearty endorse
ment
The Capitol syndicate has recently
turned over a lot of its land to one of
these Catholic Colonization companies,
which has already arranged for a
church, a priest and enough farmers to
Justify community. The syndicate,
having recently disposed of all of its
cattle, is putting its land on the mar
ket
The colonization companies are often
abused. but the very men who berate
them the most are the first TO flock to
the point where the large company IS
working 1t takes a lot OF advertising,
organization and force to get the home
seeker from the north on the train and
then on a piece of land. even though
he is anxious to move where oppOrtu-
mites are better than those existing on
his high price home land. Usually the
local people have not the money, the
patience nor the organization to do it,
so the western country without its
large land companies working in its
interest, is generally in a bad fix.
There are many good things to record
this year to show the general outlook,
for instance. close by. at Ware. Mr.

nL tk Rock Capitalist Who Killed

imboden, Feb. 9.-E. T. Irby, a prominent capitalist of Black Rock, who last Friday shot and instantly killed William Ramsey, a tenauJ of the larger Irby farm in Lawrence county, was yesterday granted bafi in the sum of S25,o0O by Chancellor Judge Humphries. Irby had no pre- liminary trial and the coroner's in- quest was had in his absence. As 3 result of the verdict rendered by the coroner's court, Irby was committee l to jail, where he will remain until h's bond is filed The case was taken under a writ of habeas corpus befora County Judge Doyle, who resoutely refused the defendant bail Then the case was submitted to Chancel- Tor Humphries.
 The killing was witnessed by no one except the wife of Ramsey, who testified to the effect that her hus- hand was assailed by his landlord. lrby, and that he was in the act of running when shot down by Irby. She further said that there was a high wire fence between the two men and that her husband was ua- armed, with the exception of a pock- ct knife, which he could not have
 used without climbing the fence; that when he saw Irby was intend ing to shoot he started to run, beg ging that his life be spared.
 Irby claims to have shot and kill ed Ramsey in self defense and says that he was fiercely attacked by Ramsey with a knife. The testimony of Irby and that of the dead mans wife are perfectly contradictory. The coroner found knife, which was closed, in the pocket of the dead man.
 This case will be tried in March, at which time the circuit court of Lawrence county will convene. The tcial will create much interest from the reason that the defendant is one of the most widely known and prou4- inent men in northeast Arkansas

At the Elks Theater next Thurs day, Feb. b William A. Brady will play by Philip H. Bartholo which had 2 most successful run last seq, sen in New York City. Up to the
 time that Over Night was pro- duced, MT. Bartholomae was an un- krown quantity in the theatrical world, and his was a case of liter ally becoming famous over night. It was almost as much of surprise to the young author as to it's pro- ducer that the little play made such an instantaneous success. The New York critics who usually attend the theater prepared to find fault, were astonished at the cleverness of the lines in "Over Night and at the young playwrights genius for con- struction. and they one and all de- clared that it was the very best laugh Of the season. It has some times been termed the ''fast-goin2 steamboat comedy,' from the fact that much of the action takes place on board of the Hudson river steam CT, the "Hendrick Hudson,' and the Imaginable situations occur over the mishaps that befall two young mar ried couples on their honeymoon trip from New York to Albany. As ths title would suggest, the action takes pace in single night. It is said that Mir. Bartholomae has construct ed play which is uproariously fun ny, but which, while it deals with a rather delicate subject, never departs from the eanons of good taste. AT. ecellent production of "Over
 Night," is promised, and the com pany, which has been carefully ~ lected, includes the names of eev- eral players who are we'll known in this city. The principal characters are the young married folks, aad these parts are to Ae taken care of
 by Sam B. Hardy and Tom Emory, as the husbands, and Ada Stirling and Francine Larrimore as the wives. Other important members of
