FOR FARM LAND

One Of the biggest land sales made
in this county in recent years was con-
summated when Peter Mailman and
Joseph Hammel, of Illinois, sold two
tracts of land to J.. H. Merriield, also
of Illinois, for a total sum Of .$127,-
600.
The land in question lies about six
miles east Of Armenia. One tract of
500 acres went for $59, 200, or $72.50
per acre, and the other tract of $50
acres, a short distance northwest Of
the first tract, sold for $69,600, the
anne price per acre as the first. Land
in the Red river valley is climbing in
value each year, and with the increas-
ed success of. stock raising and corn
growing it bids fair to, rival the prices
Of Iowa and Illinois land.

Last week r. W. Grubbs, who

sample of his wheat to The

height and IS just beginning to
head. Mr.. Grubbs says that he
has been raising wheat for the
past twenty years and that this
is the finest he has ever raised.
Thousands of acres of just such
wheat is at this time the pride of

and for all this, the dear taxpay-
er has to dig down IN his pocket.
1t is not the Hodges administra-
ton that has brought about this
state of affairs. but The Repub-
.liean administration Of Governor
Stubbs.
To the $l75,OO0 add the $ll5,-
600 deficit and the unexpended
balance of $35, 600 of the appro-
priation made in 1911 which the
Hodges ADMINISTRATION had to
take out of it's own funds, and

tratiou.
If Stubbs had not deliberately
delayed the construction of Mem
orial Hall and the other public
buildings, which are now being
constructed by the present adj
ministration, his administration
would have gone into bankrupt
cy.
When these items are properly
charged against the Stubts adj
mInistration which is directly
Meade County news. [volume] (Meade, Kan.) 1900-1918, 1914-05-28

responsible for them, it will be
seen that Hodges is not only
actually doing the business of
the state on less money than his
predecessor, but that out of a to-
tal of t211, 600 to be paid on state
bonds IN July, 100000 will have
been accum ulated outot revenues
belonging to his administration.
Twice the Legislature appro-
priated $50, 900 TO build the Lar.
ned Insane Hospital and the Tu-
berculosis Hospital, twice the
state levy included these amounts
and twice the taxpayers dug up
$50, 600, bnLno Hospitals were
built. This $500, 1000 also went
to keep the Stubbs 'administra.
tion out of bankruptcy. IA
The Legislature of 1913 ap-
propriated $50, 600 10 buildtbete
Hospitals and the Hodges adj
ministration Is building them.
II the Stu bbs administration bad
used the money the taxpayers
dug up for this purpose, this
1918 appropriation would not
have been necessary. That is
the difference between a blow
hard and a business admins
tration.
