ANNOUNCES THAT HE WILL az
READY FOR BUSINESS
AUGUST 1sr.
TO OCCUPY LOUIS BARKER H0DsE
VIII Add Milk Feeding Plant To The
susiness-Wants to Become . Mem
Der OF the Columbia Board Of Trade
Now.

William Barker will again engage i,
the produce business in Columbia. Mr.
Barker mdae this announcement Tues
day afternoon in The Herald Office
and in making the statement said thai
ne would possibly occupy the house
that his brother Louis Barker was con
templating erecting on the site where
ne formerly did business, that is If the
building was completed by the first Of
August, the time he has set for omen
ing business.
Mr.. Barker stated that If he did
take the building that Louis Barker
was talking Of erecting that he would
have 1t built according to his own
ideas and requirements, and that in
addition to what has already been pub
lished the building would be equipped
with, he would add in connection with
the cold storage, a milk feeding plant.
Mr.. Barkef's idea is to hatch chick
ems and raise them on milk. The milk
fed chicken brings the highest market
price of any chicken on the market,
barring none. They not only bring a
higher price, but they are ready for
the market in almost half the time the
ordinarily fed chicken is.
"You can say in your paper" said
Mr.. Barker as he was leaving, that
l will be here the first Of August to
engage in the produce business, and
that want to be put down as a mem
Der Of your board Of trade"
Mr.. Barker is now engaged in the
brokerage business for B. Baff, one Of
the largest New York produce dealers.

INHERlTS HERMIT'S
HALF MILLION
SURE, HE SAVED OLD FELLOWS
LIFE, BUT ALSO PUT STRINGS
ON HIS FIDDLE.

OMAHA, Neb., May 17.-Just be-
cause he was good fellow and put
strings on an old, broken-down violin
while visiting hermit in the sage
brush country in California, Eber
Smith, piano salesman in Omaha, has
fallen heir to half million.
The hermit has just died and named
Smith in his will as heir to this por-
tion of his vast fortune.
OF course Smith did more than
string the catgut on the old violin for
the hermit, but that was the first thing
that endeared him to the old hermit's
heart. The first thing he did was hunt
sage hens on the old hermits land.
The second thing he did was call down
the wrath of the old hermit by his
presence on the land.
The hermit was going to drive him
off with sticks and stones, but Smith.
being a good salesman and a good
talker, stopped to argue the matter.
That was back in 1904. He explained
that he was piano salesman and lust
out for vacation.
"Pianars," repeated the old hermit.
do you know anything about a I'D.
dle?"
i know a lot about VIOLIN" said
Smith, politely.
Come in," said the hermit. Smith
went to the lonely cabin, put strings
on the old mans shattered violin,
tuned it up for him, and played him
some pieces that delighted his heart
when he was boy.
