FAKE CHARITIES.

Deputy John higgins went to Kan
sas City Sat Irday night and arrested
G. p. Utter for beating" his board
bill at the Ruff hotel. Utter was In
Marshall last week trying to raise
funds for an orphans home in Kansas
City of which he claimed he was au-
thorizcd to solicit money for. De-
putty Higgins Investigated the matter
while in the city and found that the
home had not authorized any one to
solicit money in Marshall. A num-
ber of our citizens contributed money
for this cause and no doubt will be
pleased to learn where their money
went.
Utter was brought to Marshall and
Is out on a $4,000 bond to appear at
the March term OF criminal court.
There Is hardly week that goes by
that some one does not appear in
Marshall soliciting money for some
more or less questionable institution
While many OF these people may be
all right. we believe that any one who
is allowed TO solicit funds here should
be authorized by our board OF chart
ties.

chant out of business and charge you

beautiful pictures in our catalog, SO

FARMERS As ADyERTIvERs

The faculty OF the Kansas agricul-
tural college has turned the spotlight
OF its imagination upon the parcel
post and discovered that the mind OF
man has not yet thought OF all the
possibilities for good to the farmer,
which are buried beneath It's surface.
The immediate result OF the spotlight
search was the conclusion that parcel
post creates new relation between
the farmer and the consumer and
makes II possible for each to benefit
thereby; for the farmer to find a
market for his produce and the con-
sumer TO meet his wants at the foun-
tain of supply without the services OF
any mediator save the postman.
But In order to bring these two ex-
tremes togot ther via the postal route
the consumer must be apprised OF the
producer. This can best be achieved
by advertising. To this end the Kan
sas college Is making arrangements
to teach farm advertising, that the
farmer who has product which the
consumer want may know how to con-
struct catchy advertisement for In
sertion In his home or some nearby
city paper.
Here Is a sample advertisement
which might open up a mutually
agreeable business arrangement be-
tween the urban and the suburban
dweller: a..

OUT OF COAL

The Missouri Gas and Electric Ser
vice company has been short of gas
coal at the gas plant since Monday
and as result the users Of gas have
been greatly inconvenienoed. 4 Mis-

an offensive odor that II had to be
abandoned. Manager barnard has
had car OF Pennsylvania hard coal
on the road several days but for some
unknown reason It did not arrive as
scheduled. A car arrived Tharsday
which releaved the situation very
much.
