The management of the Chicago,
Burlington and Quincy has decided to
utilize the right of way alongside the
tracks for the production of alfalfa.
Farmers are being offered the use of
the right of way for a low rental,
with the stipulation that alfalfa only
be grown. The road figures that the
growth will not only bring in n small
income. but will save the expense of
moving weeds, burning stubble, ETC.,
while the view of the growing plant
will be more pleasing to the eyes Of
travellers than weeds. The new move
ment is one of the phases of the Bur-
lngton's new agricultural develop
ment system, calculated to bring the
railroad and farmers in closer COOP

1914 CHRISTMAS
The Y. NJ. b. As Determined That
Every One in Lamar Shall Be
Remembered

The Yambas held meeting at the
club rooms this week to make prepar-.
ations for their extensive Christmas
campaign. They voted $50 out of
their own treasury and levied so
cents per member assessment on the
membership which will more than
double the amount.
The charity boxes now on the streets
are being literally patronized also by
all classes of our people and dozen
young ladies have kindly consented to
act for them Saturday afternoon in
tagging everybody on the streets. If
you give up literally and often you
will have that pleasant feeling on
Christmas morning that you have
helped others to feel comfortable and
enjoy the day as well as yourself. You
never invested your money in any
thing in your life that will bring you
bigger. or better returns than this.
So remember when you meet young
lady with smile and badge on
Saturday afternoon have your money
ready and smile also. Both will be
appreciated.
Rev. Dewitt, L. NJ. Markham and A.
j. Davy were appointed by the meet
ing as a special committee to take
charge of the work and they are going
to try and see that every one in La
mar that is needy has reason to be
glad that Christmas has come. If you
know of any needy ones give them the
names. There will be no publicity
about it. Nobody's misfortunes are
going to be published or talked about.
All the work of the committee will be
done so that no feelings will be hurt.

Horses for the War

Mr. G. j. Garvin, the local Santa
Fe agent, informs us that the Lamar
station has shipped ten car loads of
horses to the European war, the last
car going out last Saturday. Ship
ments made to the French go through
st. Louis and New Orleans, while
those to the English go through Kan
sas City to Canada. AS each car con-
tains "a horses it means about 240
horses sent from this vicinity to the
war in Europe.
The standards for the selection of
these horses are very rigid, and they
must come within the following re-
quirements: Cavalry horses-weight
1000 to HOO pounds, heighth Is
hands to 10 hands inches. Artillery
horses weight HOO to 1400 pounds,
heighth Is to 16 hands.
No gray horses are accepted as they
are two conspicuous on the battle
field, and no branded horses are taken.
The prices paid are fair for the
grade of horses that are being pur-
chased and business is reaching up in
to the thousands of dollars from this
this section. From some parts OF
Colorado where there are more horses
of this grade it is creating quite
boom. II
