 About Refrigerators.
 Most people have the impression that a refrigerator is a refrigerator
 
 is matter of size. This is not SO. The antiQuated method of construct ing a refrigerator not only causes an expensive waste but is a source of continual annoyance. The idea in se- 1ecting a new refrigerator should be to get one up-to-date, in a sanitary way, that will really refrigerate at a minimum cost. Soliciting this busi- ness, the Nothnagle store is showing three strong lines this season in a great variety of sizes with view to satisfying every need of the prospec- tive customer. Every refrigerator is of & substantial character, made strictly of hard wood, with simple but thorough circulation of air, perfectly insulated and at the usual low Moth nagle prices. You will feel amply re- paid for the time spent if you will in spect these lines at their warerooms, 1869 Main street or 135 Fairfield ave- nue.

PROFESSIONAL BURGLARS
GET BUSY IN ATLANTA

Atlanta, Oct THE work of pro-
fesisonal burglars is seen by the police
in the robbery of the w. F. Lampkil
residence, in which Mrs. Lampkin was
chloroformed, gagged and tied to bed
post while the intruders ransacked the
house
The detectives say that the whole joJ
gave evidence that it was done by men
experienced in crime Mr.. Lampkin
was absent from home. The burglars
entered the room where Mrs Lampkin
was sleeping, and overpowered her,
placing a cloth wet with chloroforin
over her mouth before she could utter
a single scream. With a cord they had
brought for the purpose they tied her
hands behind her, and then tied her
feet together and tied her by the feet
to the bedpost. The knots we're care
fully and securely fastened 60 that she
could not possibly free herself and /"
gag was knotted tightly across her
mouth. She had been unable to call
for help or liberate herself hours after
ward when her husband came AMI
found her.
The mysterious feature of the crime
is that the burglars seem to have en-
tered the wrong house by mistake.

UNCLE sam SAYS
POP CORN WILL PAY
HERE ARE A FEW RECEIPTS FOR
POPCORN GOODIES"

Washington, D. c., Oct. 7.-(Special)
$50 worth of popped corn in the
form of scent packages for the market
represents an outlay of only about 81
OF $3.50, according to a farmers bulle-
tin (No. $3.50 just issued by the depart
ment of agriculture entitled Popcorn
for The Home Sufficient popcorn to
make $50 worth of scent packages can
be grown on a piece of land 40 feet
long and 20 feet wide.
The specialists in corn Investigations
who write this bulletin say that pop
corn has considerable value as food
and when properly prepared for the
table it is superior to many of the
breakfast foods now on the market. 1t
is customary on many farms where
popcorn is not desired as a market
crop to plant few rows for home U.s..
This phase of farming usually inter
ests che children, and it is well to let
them do the planting.
If it is desired to grow popcorn us
a field crop, the surplus stock not
wanted for home use can usually be
sold to local merchants at fair price,
or it can be profitably sold directly to
customers.
Dealers who put up pop-corn~in 10
cent packages for the retail trade us
TALLY have a number of good recipes
printed on the outside of the package.
Some recipes for pop corn CONNECTIONS
that have given good results are the
following:
Chocolate Pop-Corn-Two teacup-
fuls of white sugar; IL cup of corn
syrup; 2 ounces of chocolate; 1 cup
of water. Put these ingredients into
q kettle and cook them until syrup
hardens, when put in cold water Pour
over 4 quarts of crisp, freshly popped
corn and stir we'll to insure the uni
form coating of kernels.
Sugared -Corn-Make a syrup
|by boiling together 2 teacupfuls #
graduated sugar and 1 teacup of wa
ter. Boil until the syrup strings FROM
the spoon or hardens when dropped
into cold water. Pour over quarts
of freshly popped corn and stir well.
Popcorn Balls--One pint of syrup;
1 pint of sugar; teaspoonfuls of
butter; 1 teaspoonful of vinegar. Cook
till the syrup hardens when dropped
into cold water. Remove to back Of
stove and ad one-half teaspoonful of
soda, dissolved in tablespoonful OF
hot water, and then pour the hot sy-
rup over quarts of freshly popped
corn, stirring till each kernel is well
coated. when it can be moulded inc
balls or into any desired form.

Information on choosing varieties
of popcorn for planting, on the care

Seeding Rape at the
Last Cultivation.

For fall hog and sheep pasture
many of our readers have long
followed the practice of sowing
rape broadcast at the rate of four
or five pounds per acre at the
last cultivation. A common
method of seeding is for the SOW
ers to go through on horseback
ahead of the cultivator. A few
weeks ago, an Iowa farmer, with
a genius for mechanical expert
mentation, told us that he had
rugged up device for using a
sort of drill geared to the wheels
of his cultivator so that he could
at the last cultivation drill in
rape or cowpeas, soy beans, or
other plants, as the case might
be. The idea is certainly a good
one. We have since come to
understand that a device of this
sort is put out by certain manu-.
facturers of agricultural imple-
ments. If any of our readers
have used these devices, we would
be glad to hear from them as to
their practicability.

One of the sights of the Old
Settlers Reunion at Columbus
August S, 6, and 7 for the young
err generation to see will be part
of an old Inch pin wagon which
is over IS years old. This wagon
was made in Clinton County, Indi-
ana, and was used BY a man
named Gray as a log wagon to
which we're worked three Jokes
of oxen to haul the logs to the
sawmills. Mr.. Gray sold this
wagon to a man named Johnson,
who drove it from Indiana to
Cherokee county, Kansas, and a
short time afterward sold It to
Mr.. John Amos, who at that time
lived in Lyon township. Mr.
Amos used this wagon for a score
of years before discarding it. To
the younger generation this wa
gon will be interesting and will
show them the way our grand
fathers had to get along and also
the advancement in the building
of wagons.

Hauling Fertilizer.

An Illinois subscriber writes;
Il am wanting to put ground
limestone and ground rock phos-
phate on my farm. Will you
please let me know whether it is
the custom with tenants holding
a five-year lease to haul the fer
tilizer from the station and spread
it without charge? The station
is about mile distant. In an
other case it is about two miles.
l want to do the right thing by
the tenant"
Surely a tenant with a lease OF
three to five years ought to jump
at the chance to haul and spread
ground limestone and rock phos-
phate when it is furnished by
the landlord. We can hardly
think of a tenant so blind to his
own interests as to wish pay for
doing this kind of work. wal
