NOT ALL WEST KANSAS
TO HAVE BUMPER CROP

Fred Muench, who has just re-
turned from a business trip in Ora
ham and Sheridan county, says that
those two counties will be fortunate
If they get even half crop of wheat
this year. The farmers in that sec
ton, Mr.. Muench says, began SOW
ing in October. Very likely the
wheat sprouted and then died, for
there is only about half stand of
wheat, but a full stand Of thistles.
Farmers of that section are not ex-
pecting any big crop, says Mr..
Muench, who made several trips
over the two counties in a motorcar.
While in Graham county he visited
with o. L. Brandt, who formerly
lived here and is now owner of a
grocery story at Gradan.

Mrs. Luda Ann Tucker appealed

town this morning with team from
the Tucker farm. Mr.. Tucker came
In this afternoon, driving colt,
which he left at a local livery sta

and drove the team back to the
farm. Mrs. Tucker is seeking a
way to return home and asked the
sheriff and his deputy to get the
colt for her.
The marital history of the Tuck

sued for a divorce at the January
term of court. 1t was denied, and
she has again brought action for a
legal separation.
At late hour this afternoon Mrs.
Tucker was still in town.

Keen the BALANCE Up

1t has been truthfully said that
any disturbance of the even bal
ance of health causes serious trou-
bile. Nobody can be too careful to
keep this balance up. When people
begin to lose appetite, or to get
tired easily, the least imprudence
brings on sickness, weakness, or
debility. The system needs a tonic,
Graves it, and should not be denied
it; and the best tonic of which we
have any knowledge is Hoods Sar-

POST OFFICE MAKES PREPARATIONS FOR
 BIG XMAS IN BISBEE
shop Early Finds Response in PoStoffice Where Every Effort VIII Be Made to Expedite Busi- ness for the District Public.

Recognizing the wisdom of the usual Christmas slogan, Shop Early" the local post office is preparing sys. tems and devices for the handling. of the holiday trade which promises to be the heaviest this year in the his. tory of the office. The reason for tbis prediction is on account of the good times now being enjoyed by the resi- depts of the Warren District. This prosperity is proven by the following figures taken from the records of this office:
 There were on July l, a total of 721 accounts open fin the Postal Savings department representing total de- posit to the credit of the depositors of SlO5,744 At tie close of business November 30, there were 816 accounts open and a total of S136,755 on deposit. This shows an increase since July 1. Of l4O accounts opened and $3I,O11 in deposits an increase of over 2g per cent. This is a mighty good showing and speaks well of the condition of the town and community at large
 It is the desire of the post office to handle this eXigency with all dispatch possible. This unusual condition can be met and successfully handled. but it will only be made possible through the cooperation and aid of the public. The fact that the patrons of an of ice can be of material benefit to both themselves and the post office may not be appreciated, but such is the case nevertheless. If all mail handled were properly and plainly addressed by placing thereon correct box nun. bers and street numbers, if business houses would bring in large quantities of mail with the stamps all faced one way, if firms would, as far as practi cable, separate their mailings into city eastern, western, etc., divisions if parcels were always securely pack ed wrapped and tied, and if people would make 1t a point to learn and understand the different methods used ia the various divisions of post offices and would profit by this information a good per cent of the employees could be dispensed with.
