The writer took short car ride
into the country Sunday evening.
We were duly impressed with the
many stacks of wheat and other
grain that had already been cut, and
the golden fields that were waiting
for the harvesters this week. In
most places the straw stacks from
last year are so thick that the farm
ers will have to rent more land next
year to SOW their grain, or burn the
straw. The end Of this week will
just about see the finish of the har-
vest, and threshing the golden crop
will then be the next thing on the
docket. A good yield will be made in
all crops, and that there will be lots
of business done in all lines this fall
and winter is beyond a doubt.

TRADEEXTENSION TRIP PLANNED
About Twenty Cars of Liberal Boosters Leave
Tuesday Morning Trip to Neigh.
boring Towns.

The booster trip that has been
talked of for several days will mater
alize next Tuesday, when, If rain OF
other hindrances do not intefere,
about twenty loads of Liberal busi-
ness men will turn their institutions
over to their help and spend two
days visiting the neighborlng towns
to the south of us. The following is
the itinerary: Leave Liberal Tuesday

Hooker for dinner; spend the night
In Ochiltree, Texas; leave Ochiltree

either Gray or LaKemp, return to
Liberal by way of Beaver, Forgan
Floris and Lorena. The different
towns along the route have been
notified abont what time tie Liberal
boys will be there, and 1t is hoped to
get acquainted with as many people
as possible on the trip. The Liberal
band will accompany the boosters
and dispense music at each stop.
Liberal has band of which the boys
can be proud and their assistance
ought to help bring out a crowd
wherever stop is made. The male
quartet will also accompany the
party. All cars making the trip will
be supplied with banners on which
will be painted in large letters, LIB
eral Boosters"
The following men have agreed to

$3.50 Per Year
Change in r. F. D. Service

Postmaster Irwin has received
notice of a radical change in the R.
f. d. service out of the Liberal office.
All rural routes from here Will be
discontinued on July 81, and beginning
August 2, three new routes, to be
known as routes A. B. and c., will be
established. Route "a" will be Sit
miles long and will cover the terri
tory now covered by route of Liber-
al and route Of Florls, Oklahoma.
The salary Of this route will be $500
per annum. Route "B" will serve the
families formerly served by routes 2
and 4 from Liberal. 1t will be SO
miles In length and will pay $l7O4.
Route &c" will cover territory now
served by route and those people
west OF town who have been of all
routes and who have been petitioning
the post office department for an.
other route out there for some time.
1t will be SO miles long and the sal
cry of the carrier will be s1704. All
mail must be carried by automobile
on all routes, and the carrier must
provide ways and means of getting
the mail out during bad weather at
his own expense. All carriers Will be
under the civil service, examination
for which will be held In the near
future. The present carriers will
have no preference in this examlna-
tioh on account Of past services, but
will be graded according to the same
rules as other applicants. While this
order will mean one carrier less for
the town and a small decrease in the
payroll Of this office, 1t will provide
mail delivery to large number of
people who live in the country but
have had TO come to town for their
mail. 1t will also bring new patrons
TO the Liberal office, and will prove
good thing for the public generally.

DRY FARM ALFALFA
PROVES A SUCCESS.
VIII Open New Field for Dry Farmers
of the Whole Western Country.

George Rhines was in from his dry
farm about three miles south of Cut
terel, in Cassia county, Tuesday, and
was exhibiting a sample of dry land
alfalfa which was certainly a fine one.
Last season Mr.. Rhines secured
enough seed from the government to
plant a third of an acre as an expert
ment. 1t was planted on the 22nd day
of May last year, in rows three feet
apart, and a good stand secured. 1t
has had no water except what little
rainfall that came to that section.
The sample exhibited showed the
longest root to be % inches in length
and a 1t was broken off there is no
telling how much remained in the
ground. This years growth is eleven
inches, and it looks thrifty, giving in
dications of 1t least two good cuS
tings.
Last season Mr.. Rhiues secured one
cutting which averaged % inches In
length when cut. and there was an
average second growth of eight inc les
before frost came. Mr.. Rhines ex-
poets to secure as much of this seed
this season as possible for additional
acreage.
This experiment will doubtless be
followed by numerous other dry farm
ers and II they are as successful as
Mr.. Rhines has been 1t will open a
new field for them. as it will provide
much feed for stock. Combined with
the raising of grain, which has long
been a success in average years, will
make dry farming far more popular
than at any previous time.-Rupert

county in Wisconsin which he visited,
he found 5000 milch COWS within a
radius of six miles of one small dairy
town. With a yearly average of only
SIS of butter fat to the cow, that means
an annual payroll to that one neigh
borhood of $3.50, 900.
. That same situation, under much
better climatic conditions, a be du-
plicated in 40 localities within a 60

Last year the daries of Wisconsin
returned in cash to the milk farmers
of that state more than 100000, 900.
Nearly twice the output of the Butte

When Dame Nature carved these
mountains and valleys and located
these clear cold mountain streams and
planted these foothills to nutritious
bunch grass, she had in view. as her
final goal, fields OF red clover, alfalfa
and green corn, dotted here and there
with dairy barns, surrounded with
Holstein and Jersey milch COWS.
She undoubtedly intended that the
milk pail and the butter paddle should
be the instruments with which the flu
ture inhabitants of these fertile val
leys should achieve both fame and
fortune.
