 Rains are an agency for the spread of infectious diseases. They wash polluted material into wells. contami- hating water used for household pur- poses. Continued loss of flocks and herds is often due to carelessness in disposing of the dead animals. All such material should be burned at once, as it not only kills the infec- tion, but prevents spread of dis ease.
 A furnace for burning the carcasses of small animals, such as hogs, chick ems and others, can be constructed very easily with brick or stone For burning larger animals two ditches should be dug in the shape of cross, so the fire will always have sufficient draught. Much difficulty is often ex- perienced in burning large carcasses because the fuel is placed around and over the carcass, when it should be placed directly under it.

"Patronize home institutions, " cries the country editor. That's $ right" says the local merchant, give it to those who send away for their goods" Then with his heart filled with gratitude and kindness to the loyal paper, he sends his job work to some big city print shop, or uses a piece of wrapping paper to write an order for goods or sends a state ment to a customer on. Funny isn't it?

Don't Get To Good.

Whatever you do, brother don't get to good. There is a piety that is deprssing and which immediately breeds sus- picion and distrust. Most every man has his faults and if our se- cret acts and thoughts or even these things people know about us, but which we think they don't know about us, were held up to the public, we would shrink, cut to the quick. and flee to hide oar moral and spiritual nakedness; some of us get drunk and that's bad; some of us lie like dogs, and that's worse; some of us love money better than We do truth, honor and goodness. and that's worse, some of us cheat, steal and dodge our taxes, and that's worse still. though among the elect it is con, sidered virtue. But the crown ing sin of all is that hard, unlov- ing heart and soul without char ity for the frailties of others, which rejoice when others are crusified and which attempt to hide it's secret joy with shifting and depreciation. Men dislike such people and God despises them. No. whatever you do, don get too good. Heaven is go. ing to be a surprise to most of us.

Merchants Burdens.

Take up the merchants burdens, Go pay him as agreed. He stood your friend in trouble,
 Served you in time of need; And now to wait forever
 On unpaid bills high piled, Of never pay up peoples,
 Will starye his wife and child, Take up the merchants burden, His patience has been great, But he, to, need some money,
 A check would be first-rate. Do not be sullsn silence.
 Allow his hopes to wane- To steal anothr's profit
 For your unlawful gains.
 Take up the merchants burden Remember how he came And filled your wants on credit,
 To cheat his is your shame. Now, when you are obtaining
 The funds for which you sought Forget not what yoa promised
 Go pay him for what you bout. Take up the merchants burden.
 It's time that he was paid; Nor blame him if he asks you
 To keep the promise made. Don't get in crusty humor
 When he requested lift, But camly then remember
 You're not so very swift. Take up the merchants burden.
 For no matter where you move You'll find there is a way the merchants all approve. So, WHY NOT SETTLE NOW
 And live within your means? It gives you smiling face
 And stops those awful dreams

BURN INFECTIOUS MATERIAL
Way Diseases That XII Cattle, Hoos
 and Poultry Are Stepped.

During the course of year 1t is usually necessary to dispose of many dead animals on the average farm. Especially is this true on poultry and stock farm. There is always more or less loss among poultry and hogs, and an occasional loss among cattle and horses, besides trimmings and oEals from birds and animals that are being dressed for table use.
 Many times this material is simply removed some distance from the buildings and there allowed to decay. If the material contains anything of an infectious nature, such as tuber- culosis, hog cholera, chicken cholera

Time to Paint Up.

The Independent is here to boost business and the incident purpose of this comment is to promote the paint trade in this locality, and to stimulate activ- ity among the painters. Carlisle is good paint market. It buys and sells lots of paint, but the trouble is. not enough is sold to the people of Carlisle, and we would like to see the local paint trade hum this spring as it has never hummed before.
 The time has long since gone when paint could be regarded as an extravaganza or luxury. Paint is one of the necessities. Paint is a preservative. Therefore it is economy to paint. Paint is sanitary. Paint destroys the countless millions of germs that infest wood. A rotten timber can produce enough dangerous germs in a day to keep a doctor busy for a month. Hence we conclude that by giving the town thorough painting there would be much less chance for an epi- demic of sickness.
 It is natural for strangers to to size up a town by appearances. A dirty, rusty town appeals to nobody. and we must keep Car. lisle from such unsightliness as will cause people to think we are on the down grade. With the municipal authorities reparing and cleaning the streets, and in dividuals painting their houses and cleaning their premises. we can count upon commanding the admiration of tbe many who wis it our city.
 In appealing for patronage for the paint dealers we are far from attempting to advise the public as to the merits of the various brands of paint. We are merely certain that the poorest paint made can greatly improve ap- pearances of many of the rusty shacks and dingy walls in Car. llsle, to say nothing of many pre- tentious structures that were considered attractive before they were permitted to become dirty and dingy through neglect of owners who have failed to learn the manifold virtues of paint.

One hundred million people of the United States are demanding more beef, more steaks and roasts; mind you, more meat; not more ticks. If you are raising ticks you will be dis appointed to find that there Is no mar ket for them: you cannot sell them anywhere.

 Avis stated to the Council that he didn't have Carrel under arrest although he did tell him to .come on." It seemed to be a question of the Council, as to what is neees- sary to place a man under arrest. Marshal Avis in answering their questions stated that it had been the custom in the mayors court to swear out the warrants before mak- l ing the arrest. It developed during the meeting that Constable Blake Raggett was at the scene of the fighting some time before the arrival of Marshal Avis, and that he and Lindley, a partner in the livery bus mess with Carrel had some little words, in which 1t is said Bagett said to Lindley consider yourself under arrest. It is also alleged that Lindley was never arrested.

Farmers need be concerned about but four elements in the soil They are nitrogen, phosphorons, potash ane lime All sets contain enough of the other clements to make good crop of any farm crop. The proper proprotion and amount of the four elements mentioned will insure a pro ductive soil for any farm crop Such soils are usually dark or black, and are what are immediately recognized as good soils. A large part of the lands in our Sta.e need more phos- phorous and lime Phosphorous can be added to the soil by applications O. aid phosphate, bone meal. ground rock phosphate, etc. There are nu- merous beds of rock phosphate in Ar kansas. but most Of it is of a low value.

C.M TEAM DEFEAT BAPTIST

So many changes have been made in the games scheduled in the Sun day School league, that interest in the games is poor, and unless the remainder of the season, the league will close in the hole. Last week the Central Presbyterian team was scheduled to play a double head CT with the First Baptist team Tues day afternoon, but the Central Pres byterian team did not put in an ap- pearance. In order that the specta- tors who were present might not be denied a game, two teams were made up from the three teams and an =ex- hibition game staged.
 Friday afternoon the regular sched- uled game between the First Baptist and Christian Methodist team was played, with the C-M team winning by a score of ' to 3. The game was more exciting than the score would indicate.
 Bennett started twirline for the First Baptist, but lasted very short time the first inning, as three walks and a hit. coupled with a= hit batsn4an gave the G-M team four runs Thompson was substituted for Ben nett and pitched good ball with the exception Of the seventh, when he gave three bases on balls, and hit q batsman, allowed hit which SCOT ed two runs.
 Stafford pitched for the G-ME team. and was accorded excellent support, only one error being made, and that by Gillett. who drepped ball and allowed TiIlman to score.
 In hits the game was about even the C-M team getting five, and the Baptist 4. Attendance very light.
