Killed by Train.

Sunday morning Hose Kimcs,
a colored man, living three miles
north west of Baxter, was ki led
by a Frisco freight rain. Kimes
was in Baxter shortly before his
death, seemingly under the In
fluence of liquor. About ntol
he started on the track for home
When about a mile north of the
city Kimes laid down on the road
bed. The engineer of the south
bound train noticed the sleeper
but was unable to stop his train.
The engine and three cars passed
over the body, cutting off both
legs, a hand and crushing the
head. A. L. Harvey was called
and removed the body to Baxter,
where it was prepared for burial.
Funeral services we're held Mon
day afternoon. The. deceased
was SO years old. He leaves a
wife and three children. No in
quest was held, the coroner be-
ing satisfied that the death was
due to Kimes condition.

BAXTER CLUB MEETS

Mrs. H. B. Musser of Parsons,
Kansas, who is doing club work
in the Bird District, under the
United States Department Of Ag'
riculture, for the boys and girls
and mothers, met a number of the
club women of Baxter, at the
Club Room at the Public Library
last Thursday afternoon and
evening, to explain the work Of
that Department. The object is
to interest the boys and girls in
entering contests in raising farm
and garden products, competing
for prizes to be awarded the most
successful in each contest. Mrs.
Musser is very enthuiastic in her
work and all present expressed
their willingness to assist in this
commendable enterprise.
Mrs. F. M. Perkins was chosen
leader of the mothers and girls
clubs in this locality.
1t is probable that a permanent
organization will be effected in
the near future for the forming
of these clubs among the boys
and girls in this vicinity.
Mrs. Musser, while here, was
the guest of Mrs. J. B. Opper-
man and Mrs. J. H. Boswell.

THE CLOR|ES
Of FARMLE|F

In the current issue Of Farm and
Fireside, the national farm paper pub
lished at Springfield, Ohio, Herbert
Quick, the editor, writes the following
stirring article on the backaches and
the glories of the farm:
"There is backache on the farm, and
chapped hands, and chilblains, and
lame feet, and bathless homes, and
solitude, and excess of tasks over
strength, and babies born without ade-
quate care for either mother or child,
ard boots plastered with mud and ma
nure, and clothes smelling of the barn
and disgusting things to do for and
with the live stock, storms which
sweep away the chance of a years
wages, insects which spring up from
nowhere and ravage the growing
things, plaques which threaten barn
and byre, COWS which kick, young
things which refuse to live up
to their breeding or nurture, cracks
in the fingers, dust in the lungs, bar
ley boards in the eye, chaf down the
back, stumps and stones, and sprouts
and weeds.
Nothing comes out as it was plan
ned, because weather and bugs and
fungi and parasites are not planned
by the farmer. These things the book
writer's and rural romancers do not
know. If they did we shuold begin
to get really great farm literature. We
should get its darker aspects, blended
with its glories-and it's glories are
many.
All of them seen by the dabblers
in rural literature are there, and much
they do not see. They do not see,
for instance, that on the farm is the
one place in American life where wife
and children may BEAUTIFULLY and hap
PLY do their part in making a living.
On the farm the woman and the man
still work side by side as of old; and,
in the main, they are rewarded by
safety and security if not by wealth.
zone of these days the lights and
shadows will be blended in real liter
ature-the backache with the glory of
the o~ver-arching sky seen by the labor
er when he puts his hand on his back,
straightens up, and signs for weari-
ness"

DOES NOT
AFFECT CROPS

Scientist are nov convinced that
the MOON has no moro inftscnce on
crops than. it has upon the temlc4a-
ture or the amount Of rain OF the
winds OF any other weather element.
The growth Of plants depends upon
the amount Of food in the soil and in
the air that is availaole for them and
upon temperature, light, and moisture.
The moon obviously does not effect
the character Of the soil in any way,
neither does it effect the composition
of the atmosphere. The only remain
ing way in which II could influence
plant growth, therefore, is by its
light. Recent experiments, however,
show that full daylight is about 6OO,-
900 times brighter than full moonlight
yet when a plant gets l-1O0th part of
normal daylight 1t thrivcs little better
than in absolute darkness. If 1-1OHh
part of normal daylight is thus too
little to stimulate q plant, it seems
quite certain tina 6o0,o00h part IAN not
have any effect at all. 1t is therefore
a mere waste of time to think about
the moo in connection with the plant
ing of crops. The moon says the scient
lists, has nothing more to do with this
than it has to do with the building Of
fences, the time for killing hogs, OF
any other of the innunerable things
over which it was once supposed to
exert a strong influence. Gu. S. De-
