Charters Poland Chinas.

w. H. Charters, Jr., Butler, NO.,
keeps his herd Of big type Poland
China hogs coming along nicely from
year to year and this promises to be
the best year the herd has seen for
producing great number of extra
good pigs. All have been given the
simultaneous treatment and are now
doing exceptionally fine. White Sox
Chief, Mr.. Charters A Wonder boar
and Long Price are sires of the great
er number of the $50 early spring
pigs. Wonder Chief the yearling son
of White Sox Chief that is retained in
the herd is the sire Of few litters
and these are exceptionally good. In
Wonder Chief, Mr.. Charters has the
making of the largest boar he has
ever owned, He looks as though he
would 60 to the 1,000-pound class and
is smooth. In order to keep getting
new blood in the herd Mr.. Charters
recently purchased Missouri King

out of Ko' Komo Sd by r. & C's.
Pawnee Lad, he by old Pawnee Lad.
This boar is now two years old, has
size and quality and should make a
valuable addition to the herd, as he is
a proven sire Of exceptionally good
pigs. Mr.. Charters will not hold a
fall sale and is making a special drive
on boars. He also has a number of
good young sows bred for fall litters
that are offered at reasonable prices.
After September LIST Mr.. Charters
will move to his new farm joining
the city limits of Butler and wants all
who can to come and see his herd.
He also is pricing his old farm of 24O
acres and someone wanting good
stock and grain farm can buy this
farm worth the money.-Farmer and

William Baskerville.

In the life of William Baskerville
we find a God-fearing man, rich in
love of family and of his fellowmen.
Having a high conception of honor
and integrity, he was possessed of a
strength Of character, a personality
so strong that his influence was
stamped upon all with whom he
came in contact He believed in a
practical, working Christianity and
was always ready to help the needy
and unfortunate.
He was honest, industrious, ece-
nomical and charitable. The world
is made better by the lives of such
men and the void is never filled when
such men are called up higher.
William Baskerville was born in
Cumberland county Virginia, May
10th, 1928, and passed away on the
farm he had lived upon continuously
for the past fifty years, in Bates
county, NO., June 18th, 1914.
He came to Missouri when eight
years of age and grew to manhood in
Cooper county. Then after spending
five years freighting across the plains
and in California, he settled upon the
farm he resided upon until his death.
In 1870 he was united in marriage
to Mary Caldwell, of Kentucky par
entage. Of this union two sons and
three daughters survive him. Of his
fathers family only one sister, Mrs.
Kate Snodgrass, survives him.
He was laid to rest in Snodgrass
cemetery, June 18th, by the side of
his wife who preceded him twenty
seven years. The large number of
sorrowing friends and neighbors who
gathered to do honor and show re-
spect to his remains, is grateful
testimonial of the high esteem in
which he was held.
One by one the workmen, the
builders for eternity, are dismissed
from their work. Into that city of
God, with life's work we'll done, may
writer and reader at least have abund-
ant entrance. Appleton City Journal.

ference in the world between the two
states of mind.
1t is doubtful if any of those who
planted cottonwoods twenty-five years
ago ever guessed that the twigs they
planted would be sawed into lumber.
With their experience before us we
should do great deal better. Will
we do it?
Automobile manufacturers have at
last learned that high speed is not a
thing to be desired and are doing
their best to make machines that will
travel slowly and quietly on ''high. ;"
When twenty miles an hour is con-
sidered driving the automobile will
come into its own.
There are too many who have not
learned that it is possible to do more
harm than good in cultivating corn
when the ground is wet and they
don't seem to be able to learn by ex-
perience. It is better to let the hired
man take a little undeseryed rest than
to have him pudding around in the
cornfield just for the satisfaction of
keeping him at work.
Did you ever notice that the fellow
who complains the most about the
cold and billiards. in the winter is the
one who grunts and whines about the
heat and mud in the summer? It
seems that some can see and say only
disagreeable things. They should be
pitied, not blamed.
Ican't talk to the average run of
folks very long without acquiring a
longing to get out somewhere all by
myself and listen to the birds sing.
And am by no means misanthrop-
list, either. But cannot help wish
ing that even the people whom + love
the most dearly had more of the sim
plicity and sweetness Of the forest
songsters in them.

Harvester Company Pays Fine
of $25, 900

jefferson City, June pa. D. Al
len, clerk Of the supreme court, re-
ceived today from the International
Harvester Company Of America a
check for $25, 8.65, representing the
fine and part of the costs of the litiga-
ton which led to the conviction Of
that company on charges of violation
of the antitrust laws of Missouri.
The total costs of the suit were ap-
proximately $32, 600, and there remain
some features to be adjusted by the
company with the clerk.
Judge Theodore Brace of Paris, who
was special commissioner in the in
vestigation, was paid S., 400 by the
company, that representing his fees
and travelling expenses. James Rob-
erts of Marshall, stenographer, was
paid 81, 500 for his work in connection
with the investigation.
The amount Of the fine, $25, 900, will
be turned into the state treasury by
Mr.. Allen, where it becomes part of
the general revenue fund of the state.
There was not, as was the general
impression, a judgment of absolute
custer against the Harvester company.
Judge w. w. Graves, who wrote the
opinion in the case, which was sus-
tanned later by the United States SUI
preme court, says the custer was con-
ditional upon future behavior.
Judge Graves said it lis entirely with
in the power of the court to inflict alb
solute custer, and it is also within the
power of the court to temper justice
with mercy and permit the company
to remain in the state, provided it
keeps aloof from combinations in re-
straint Of businessand generally obeys
the laws of Missouri.
Jefferson City, June 26.-W. M.
Robinson, former justice of the su-
preme court, today notified j. D. Al
len, clerk of the supreme court, that
he contemplates legal proceeding to
compel the state to turn over to the
school fund of Cole county the $685.
300 fine recently paid by tine Inter-
national Harvester company of Amer
lea.
Judge Robinson contends that I'M

ongs to the school fund of the county

continue to deal with those whom
Huerta commands "and those who
