Last Sunday afternoon, at Luz
erne, quite band of men and boys
were securing a wide territory in
search of William Vice, Jr., who
had wandered away from his parents
home just before the snow and wind
storm broke. The boy is only six
years old, and had been playing
around the home in his shirt sleeves,
and without gloves or any like
protection he battled the elements
for about four hours, until he was
found. He had been moving all
the while, and was running when
discovered. He is very hardy
boy, OF he would have been over
come. One hand was slightly frozen
but he had Immediate attention, and
there will be no permanent injury.
There was great rejoicing when the
boy was found, and his parents are
keenly grateful to the many friends
who helped them.

Novel Method Of Farming

John Plummer owns 10000 acres
of land In Stanton county, Kansas.
He will not sell an acre OF 1t but is
willing to give 1t away to the men
who will keep the weeds down and
farm that land as experience has
taught him 1t should be farmed.
Mr.. Plummer raises the biggest
crops that are grown in western
Kansas without irrigation, by an
adaptation of farm methods pecu-
liarly his own. He figures that he
gets good price for his land by
giving 1t away. During the pc
riod of the lease he receives one
fourth of the broom crop each sea-
son. His leases all provide for for
ty acres of broom corn and one
hundred acres of feed crops each
year. or the feed crop he re-
ceives one-half, either when sold di-
rect or fed to cattle, The leases stip-
ulate that all of the feed crops are
" bo S'oltu III Siips UT stdtkeu
properly so that it may be fed to
cattle or used for refilling the silos.
If the season is suitable Mr.. Plum
mer buys all the cattle necessary
to eat up all the feed grown on his
farms. He pays for the cattle and
the tenant sees to their feeding. At
the end OF the season the cattle are
sold. Plummer takes out the original
cost of the cattle and six per cent
interest on the money and divides
the profits equally with his tenant.
II the season is not suitable for cat
tie feeding the feed crops are sold
and the money equally divided be-
tween the landlord and the tenant.
When tenant has become an expert
at this kind of farming he is given
warranty deed to the land.-Field

a fatal accident, and holder of the
record both ways between Sydney.
Neb.. and Cheyenne. Wyo., was in
Boulder as an expert witness in the
lloyle damage suit in district court.
One of the Boulder papers says OF
Mr. Post:
He holds engineers certificates
from the Colorado & Southern. Union
Pacific. Denver & Rio Grande, and
Rock Island railroads. until his re-
tircment on pension of $50 a month
in January, he was the second old
est engineer In point of service on
the entire Union Pacific system.
Several years ago special train
was wanted In an emergency to run
from Cheyenne to Sidney. Post was
chosen TO take charge of the engi-
ncer's cab. He pulled the train the
distance OF l02 miles In 80 minutes.
This record stood until last fall
when Post cut II two minutes. On
this occasion he piloted the special
train bearing General Manager JEFF
fries to Cheyenne to investigate the
series of train robberies which w.
l.. Carlisle was later arrested and
convicted. Post claims he was held
down by Jeffries or he would have
made the trip in so minutes.
