OFF TO THE FAIRS.

Harry Holmes, Of west Of town,
shipped ten head Of his fine herd Of
Shorthorn cattle to Topeka Wednes-
day morning where they will enter
the big fair for exhibition. From To.
peka they will go to Hutchinson and
will make the entire circuit Of all the
big fairs Of the state, and it is not
unlikely that they will be exhibited
at the big stock show at Kansas
City late in the fall. II has been
our privilege to inspect Mr.. Holmes
herd Of Shorthoms on several differ.
ent occasions, but not during the pas
few months, since the herd has been
fitted up for show purposes, and we
were greatly surprised at the fine
appearance of the animals, although
we knew that the herd comprises
some of the finest blood strains and
best individuals to be found anywhere
in the United States, and we believe
that the statement is a moderate one
when we say that the bunch shipped
"Wednesday are by far the finest cat.
tie ever seen in Barton county. The
herd, which is composed Of pure
Scotch and Scotch Topped cattle, is
headed by New Echo 360066, by New
Goods and out Of Echo End, his dam
being by Imported Ethel by Nonpareil
Conquerer, and is one Of the best
bred and best show bulls in the state.
The herd, which Is in charge of Un-
Gle Tom Minton, an old man with
long experience inn the care Of
blooded stock, now comprises about
sixty head Of pure breds, all extra
fine individuals, but the ten head of
show animals are the especial pride
Of their keeper and he lavishes as
much care and attention on them as
ne would on a group Of children. He
will accompany the herd On their
tour Of the fairs and will exhibit the
animals in all classes and there Is
no doubt but that they will return
home this fall with gOOdly share Of
the premiums to their credit.

Carl Schmidt, Of the Moore Bakery,
has gone on his annual pilgrimage to
Pittsburg, Pa, for a visit with his
friend, Claude Hendricks, one of the
leading pitchers Of the National
League team Of that city. Carl made
a trip back to Pitts6urg for a visit
with Hendricks two years ago this
summer, and accompanied the team
on a two weeks trip, meteing most Of
the star players Of the big circuit.
and the brand Of base ball furnished
for his entertainment was of such
quality that he says he has been
saving up his nickles ever since to
take the same trip every fall. He ex-
poets to remain for several weeks,
travelling over the circuit with the
team, and If his money doesn't run
out-at least he says that is the on
ly thing that will bring him back
sooner-he will stay for the big
championship games between the
winners Of the National and Ameri-
can league pennants. Hendricks was
at one time a member Of the Ellin-
wood Greens, one Of the fastest lit
tie ball teams that was ever in this
part Of the country. Joe Wood, last
year the leading pitcher in the Amer
lean league, was also a member Of
this famous Ellinwood team, as was
also Charley Barngrover, who at one
time was one Of the best slab artists
in the National league. Now Leo
Dresser, another EIlinwood boy, is upl
amDng the big fellows in base ball,
SO it would seem that Ellinwood Is
doing her full share to furnish the
star players in the big leagues. Won
der If there Is another town in the !
state that can boast of having sent
four players up to the majors.

FINE LOT OF FEED.

Sam Gwinn, of west of town, has
recently finished filling his big 200
ton silo with corn and the PROPOSE
tion Of getting his stock through the
winter is not going to worry him to
any great extent from now on But
It is a whole lot more expensive feed
than he had in the silo last winter,
even if it will not be so good on &C.
count Of the grain being missing this
year. Last fall Mr.. Gwinn had a
thirtyfive acre field of corn that fill
ed the silo to the brim. This year ht
put in 165 acers and the big feed
picker is no more full than last year.
And where the real rub came in was
that he had to buy the most of the
corn to fill it with this year. He had
n thirty acres Of his own, as he had
estimated this spring that this acre
age, together with a little other feed,
would be all he could get into the
silo. But the dry weather changed his
estimate on that to a great extent
and he was forced to buy corn from
his neighbOrs, paying from one to
five dollars an acre for the same and
hauling a part of it about six miles.
He says that counting what he paid
for the corn and also the labor, it ha4
cost him pretty close to 5000 to fill
the. silO this year, but at that he has
200 tons Of mighty fine feed, that
would probably bring $40 a ton on
the market before spring If he cared
to dispose of it, so it would seem thai
the silO is big paying proposition
anyway

"Can | Afford to
Buy Real
EState?"
E5EgE5E5EJE5EgE5G5Gg

IAN you expect to be considered as one of
- the substantial citizens of your commu-
nity when you do not own any real es-
tate? Real estate has such body and per-
manent worth to it that ones financial stand
ing is largely based on the amount of real es-
tate that he owns. Ownership of real estate
is probably the highest commentary upon
a man'swOrth as a citizen.
IAN you say in truth that north Fulton
~ County acreage has reached its limit in
value? Even if you suspect it, your appre-
tensions are not founded on facts. Everything
points to higher values and remarkable growth
during the coming years.
IAN you say acreage tracts ranging from
- 4 to IA acres, near Silver Lake. are not
we'll located? If you doubt it then you
depreCiate the influence of magnificent homes,
Clubhouses, naCadamized driveways and the
effect of Improvements that come with more
people, more wealth and ambition for devel-
Opment.
IAN you say that the terms are hard? A
- hundred dollars cash and ten dollars per
month will buy some of these tracts. The
terms fixed on all of them is one-tenth cash
and the balance extending over period of
five years.
IAN you say that you are not able to buy
~ one of them? If you do, you doubt your
own ability and depreciate your own ca
paCty. Any man with muscle and brain that
God has endowed him with. however hard his
lot may seem to have been, is capable of buy
ing one of these tracts.
IAN you afford to miss this chance? Quite
~ a number of these tracts have been sold.
There are others unsold that are Just as
desirable and have the value in them relatively
just as much as any of those that have been
sold.

TRUTH TRIUMPHs.
Princeton Citizens Testify for the
Public Benefit.

A truthful statement of Prince
ton citizen, given in his own words,
should convince the most skeptical
about the merits of Doan's Kidney
Pills. If you suffer from backache,
nervousness, sleep1essness, urinary
disorders of any form of kidney ills,
use tested kidney medicine. A
Princeton citizen tells of Doan s
Kidney Pills. Could you demand
more convincing proof of merit?
W. R. Bigelow, Princeton, Mimi,
says II had bad case of rheumatic
pain and kidney trouble. 1t hurt
me to bend and when I got down or
in a chair, I could hardly get up.
The trouble kept me from work and
several times when [ caught cold,
the attacks were worse. I was told
to try Doan's Kidney Pills and did.
I soon got relief and little later I
was cured"
