most unaccountable accident caused a
water damage Of several thousand dol
lars at the McCully & Osgood store. A
defective valve in the water pipes,
which connect the steam boiler with
the city pressure, causing flooding OF
the heating system. This occurred
after the closing time Of the store, and
was not noticed until about 8 O'clock,
when the barber shop force lnder-
meath commenced to get the benefit OF
the upstairs shower. Mr.. Osgood was
summoned. and upon unlocking the
front door, found an inch Or more OF
water upon the floor. The radiators IN
the upstairs rooms being located at the
sides of the building, caused the water

the damage to dry goods, particularly
silks and woolens, was very great.

could tell in advance what a neigh
boris opinion on a new subject would
be. It was serene, but full of monot-
,ony. The people because duller;
all of the brighter ones made their es-
cape.
What was needed for the farmers
family was twenty miles an hour. This
the automobile supplies, and this is
the real meaning of the remarkable
increase in the number of automobiles
now being bought by farmers. The
city had various kinds of rapid transit
before the automobile, but the auto
bile ever provided for the farmer.
Rapid transit made big cities of today
possible Automobiles rapid transit,
experts on this subject say, is going
to make new kind of life possible
on the farm. The practical utility
of the automobile on the farm has al
ready been much emphasized, the
marketing and going back and forth
in the days work. 1t is a service OF
capital Importance and must be APP
praised at nigh value, but the prac-
ticalside of the farm life has received
the almost exclusive attention of those
who would improve its conditions.
It. may be said that herein lay its
unattractiveness to many. 1t was too
practical; too much work and too little
play. All the inventors had been con-
centrating on providing the farmer
with better tools to work with in
stead of giving at least a fair part
Of the thought to a device to afford
him pleasure.
One name for the automobile is
pleasure car Vacations spring from
the pleasure idea. The vacation is an
urban institution, born in the city and
developed there. It was unknown
practice on the farm until few years
ago. 1t was no pleasure to wear out
q team on some long trip, over hot
and dusty roads. But now the farm
er automobile owner looks forward
to- his vacation with all the expec
tation of the city man. Thousands
o. Kansas and Nebraska farmers will
make their trips this year tC Colorado
ard other scenic states of the far
west, after their rush season is ended.
In some of the most prosperous dis
tricts four out of five farmers own
To them hundred miles
is short trip. This means the null
