will be impossible for the city to get
along another year without some such

by the general assembly last session
providing for a special assessment for
this purpose in cities of $4,000 or
more. This must be changed to In

be taken, but the mayor wishes to
have everything in readiness so IL It
is changed the work can start at once.
There are three different types Of

burns up the refuse One of the plants
gives fertilizer, the other Gindsr
flagstone. If the expense is not too
large the mayor believes the city

could 60 to our home stores and by
buying in $40 lots, paying cash, and
taking the goods home with me, !
could save enough out Of $40 order to
duplicate the premiums you offer, con-
sidering the cost Of shipping and de-
livery Of the goods from Peoria. Be-
sides l would be buying at home, save
several weeks Of waiting, avoid the
risk Of delay and loss and would know
in advance by personal examination
just what / am getting.
Referring again to the matter Of
profits, let me say this:
Il do not know Of any merchants in
the small towns Of Kansas who are
making unreasonable amounts Of
money, if appearances count for any
thing. These merchants live modestly
and seem to practice the usual econo-
mics. Montgomery Ward on the other
hand is multi millionaire; the profits
Of his company are increasing by mil
ions in each annual report; Julius Ros-
enwald is multi-millionaire; the Lar
kin family, am told, are multi-mil-
lionaires.
"Who are getting the big profits?
II asked you to give me the names

"All the families in town having
been driven away, the school would Of
course close up and Mrs. Jones hus-
band would lose his place.
"The church would die and Mrs.
Whites husband would be out hunting
for q new pastorate.
"And we women, by organizing our
Larkin clubs, and by distributing our
Montgomery Ward catalogs have prac-
tically discharged our own husbands,
and separated ourselves and our chill
dren from our bread and butter. The
small town would be dead We would
have to 60 to the farm or the big city
in order to exist.
"Of course realize as you also real
ize, that such condition is not likely
to come to passbut this is not our
fault. Your policy, if carried out to its
logical end, would mean just this.
would it help me much to save the
profits at such q cost? 5
"Your claim that your prices quoted
in your catalog are the same the local
merchant pays at wholesale is not well
founded.
Furthermore, ! am inclined to be-

Suppose all the rest Of the women

the result?

Serum Against Hog Cholera.

Hog cholera serum will make hog
immune to cholera for four weeks. The
time to use the serum is just when the
cholera breaks out. Hogs treated with
serum at this time become immune for
a long time, some for life. In order
to treat at this time, have supply of
serum on hand. The method suggest
ed by the North Dakota Experiment
Station is that several farmers go to-
gether and buy quantity of serum
and keep it on ice; when the hog
cholera breaks out, the serum is right

us, and we kick because it is wet, be-
cause it is unusually hot, or per-
chance, because it gets too cold. In
the midst of the routine of days we
only realize the seasons as they usher
in weather in assorted degrees Of wet,
heat or cold and then we frantically
run around in our little sphere, seek
ing materials for protection for our
worthless hides.
Let us change this for new order.
AS harvest is over and threshing
under way, we realize that Winter is
at hand, that chill winds will soon take
the place of Summer breezes, that ice
will coat the lakes and streams and
that indoors must have out attention
for many months.
Let US, with wise foresight, pur-
chase coal against our future urgent
need, let us utilize the ice yield of the
streams for our next Summers COM
fort.
Happy is the man with definite
plan. It saves money and it saves AN
noyance if we arrange for the future.
See the Rogers Lumber Company
and get their plan for ice-houses and
other Winter needs. Mr.. H. S. John
son will help you plan ahead.

in the silo is when nearly ripe. It
contains the most food value at this
time, and also makes the best ensilage.
When corn is put in the silo too imma-
ture, it makes more acid ensilage, as
well as less nutritious one.
