Departed

James Wilson, one of Meade's
Oldest and most highly respect
ed citizens has passed from
among US.
For more than a year his
health had been failing, and on
Tuesday, August, 10th, accom-
panied by his wife and two Of
his children, he departed for
Colorado, Spring, thinking that
climate might prove helpful, but
it seems that his condition was
beyond help. Upon arriving a:
their destination be seemed tired
from the trip and retired earlier
than usual, and on the following
morning it was impossible TO
awaken him, a stroke of paralysis
having rendered him unconscious
His condition grew worse and
on Tuesday, August 18th the
end came.
The deceased has always been
numbered among our most re-
spected and influential citizens.
In 1893 he represented Meade
county in the Legislature and
gained popularity when he cast
the deciding vote to elect John
Martin United States Senator.
Under President Cleveland he
was appointed Government Live
Stock Inspector. Later he was
elected Mayor of Meade and for
a number of years was a mem
ber of the Meade school board
James Wilson was born in

1862 and located in Pennsylvania
In 1869 he came to Mcpherson
County, to Barber County 1874
and in 1885 came to Meade Coun
ty. He was married to Mis-:

Good Roads Days

Topeka, Aug. IA large
part of Kansas is going to move
the mud holes out of its dirt
roads Wednesday and Thursday
the two good road days designa-
ted by Governor Capper. The
governor has received reports
of complete good roads organiza-
tion in seventeen counties of the
state, and many counties held
meetings today or will meet
Monday to get the work arrang-
ed for the two days.
Most of the work will be done
on the mail routs and on the
roads leading to the markets,
according to the reports receiv-
ed by the governor. 1t rs not
intended that any roads will be
built. The counties and town
ships will be able to attend to
these, but the plan is to fill up
the bad places IN the roads and
drag them, so that the roads
will be restored to almost the
same condition they were in be-
fore the big rains of the spring
and early summer.
Many mail routes have had to
be temporarily abandoned be-
cause of impossible roads, and
the touring roads across the
state all have many detours be-
cause of bad mud holes.
Motor car owners generally are
to help in the work.
Many have hired extra men and
teams to help on the roads.
In most of the counties the
engineer called meet
lngs of all the road overseers IN
the county and asked each to re.
port on the bad stretches of
road and how many men and
teams it would take to make the
necessary improvements. The
workers are then as
signed to the townships.

Very few persons-even those
who are well informed on most
matters-know how much an
inch of rain is. The average man
or woman probably has an idea
that an inch of rain is a mere
trife on natures part. This is
entirely wrong. In reality it is
a good big rainfall, more than
falls in most places in an average
week. A rainfall of an inch
means literally that the amount
of water decending in a particu-
lar shower would cover the sur
rounding territory to depth of
one inch, providing it did not
run away or soak into the ground
An inch of rain coming down on
a single acre of land would fill
more than six hundres barrels
of forty-fve gallon capacity each.
This amount of water would
weigh more than one hundred
and ten tons, or nearly a quar-
ter of million pounds.-Daily

Supplied by Meade Co.

For years certain grade OF
silica, used in certain chemical
compounds, and in certain man.
ufacturing processes has been
imported from Germany.
Today, thanks to the big war,
Meade County, Kansas, is sup
plying America.
Some time ago deposite of al
most pure silica was found ID
Meade county. A Kansas City
concern that manufactures a pa
tent cleanser preparation began
using this silica in its cleanser.
1t was snoveled from the ground
into wagons, hauled to Meade
and shipped to Kansas City.
Then the war came on, and a
demand for more silica to re-
place that formerly supplied by
Germany. The Cudaby inter.
csts brought up large tract of
this deposit in Meade county.
Now the demand for the white
powdery substance has grown
until better transportation is
needed than the old time shovel
and wagon method.
The Rock Island railway is
now starting spur track nine
miles long, building from Fowl.
er to the silica deposit. Here
the Cudahys will erect a plant
for the drying and treating of
the silica. 1t will be loaded and
handled with steam shovels, and
shipped out by the trainload.
1t is just one more industry in
America that has been developed
through the necessities arising
from the great war abroad.
The silica deposit in Meade
county, is in white, appears to
be sand hills ard the silica is
loose like sand. 1t is found IN
various places. The Cudahy de-
posit is southwest of Fowler.
There are other deposits of it in
smaller quantities south of
Meade.
Most of the silica being ship
ped out now is hauled into
Meade in wagons and loaded in
to cars there. The Rock Island
spur will be built from Fowler,
however because there IS bet
ter grade from the latter place.

heavy demands made on it and is
asking for help to build a mod
ern Child's Hospital which will
lack no one thing in making sick

Mercy Hospital is purely a
Charity. 1t takes children up tC
10 years of age, absolutely with
out c charges of any kind. The
child who has money is sent to
some other place. The Doctor
the and nurses all work with out
pay so the hospital must be built
and maintained from voluntary
subscriptions. Free treatments
for 1914 amounted to 22,208 and
this does not include treatments
and visits to patients out of the
Hospital which mounted to II,

A Campaign for a builning

| RENE mber, | remem m ber the

hardly know the old place now,
for Dad is up to date and the
