The Prune Club.

Here's one for you this morning. said the young man with the red neck tie breezing into the boarding house breakfast table. "What's the difference between a man and a cow?"
 Because you've got to get on the right side of em to get anything out of 'em," suggested the man brought up on the farm.
 Back up there, Cyrus! said what's the difference?"
 "Well, my guess is cause man is never satisfied with his lot" said the real estate broker.
 Not right"
 Perhaps 1t is cause man never has more than two calves" said the clerk on the hose counter at the gen. tleman's emporium.
 @"All wrong. Now listen: Because a COW never seems to bite off more than she can chew. ."--Yonkers Statesman.

HARVEST BIG CROP
The Big Wheat Crop Almost All
In Shock and Stack.

The farmers are feeling mighty
chesty just now over the fact that
they were able to get their wheat.
oats and barley crops in the shock
without any loss from hail. The
rain on last Thursday evening eau
sed some damage by the grain fall
ing but the greater part has been
taken care of without loss.
Besides being of unusual quail
ty, the acreage is said to be the lar
gest ever seeded in the valley and
when the threshing returns begin
to come in, some unusual yields
will be reported. Judging from ap-
pearances the valley over will yield
an average of 40 bushels per acre
and there will be some fields that
will make IS or better.
The threshing machines will
soon be knocking out the golden
grain and the busiest place in the
town will be the elevator. Ship
ments are sure to be slow this year
as Kansas has record breaker
crop and the Santa Fe will be
taxed to care for the heavy move
ment OF wheat to the markets
which will soon start Wiley Jour
nal.

Lamar Council Raises Water Rates

Lamar Councll RAISES water Rates
The city council of Lamar at it's
regular meeting on Monday even
ing passed on first reading and Or
dered published an ordinance rails
ing the city water rates from $1.O0
minimum to $150, which entities
the user to one Thousand cubic
feet, and the additional charge is
raised from 10 cents per hundred
cubic feet to Is cents. The ordin-
ance will probably be passed at the
next meeting and go into effect
about the first of August. 1t is q
rather hard blow for those who
have been Dragging that our muni-
cipal water plant was more than
paying expenses. The latter always
forgot in their statements to in
clude the small item of about four
teen thousand dollars for interest,
and even this drastic raise will not
really make both ends meet. The
money has to be raised and it real
ly only makes a slight difference
whether it is in the form of increas-
ed taxes or water rates, but as an
advertisement to the city we be-
lieve the cheap water was very val
liable asset, while people have long
since quit expecting anything but
high taxes.-Lamar Register.

BIG CROP BEING HARVESTED
Wheat Crop Now Mostly in Shock
Second Alfalfa Harvest Begins

While the danger from both hail
and grasshoppers. both of which
are doing inestimable damage to
farmers crops only q few miles away
from the Lamar territory, is daily
growing stronger, yet the farmers
of this section are beginning to
think this is their lucky year.
The wheat crop is now mostly in
the shock, and the second cutting
of alfalfa is beginning in some fields.
1t will now be a continuous har-
vest of some kind or other until
the last beet is in. It is much graft
fication to have the biggest wheat
crop ever harvested in the valley
safely in the shock and ready for
the threshing outfits which are get
ting ready for long campaign and
some already in the field.
All the other grains are doing well
and promise larger yields than ev.
er before if nothing unusual hap
pens. The second crop of alfalfa al
ready being harvested on some ran
ches will be humdinger and in
sure the running of all the mills
to capacity for many weeks-La-

PRAISE HoLLY's FOURTH
Lamar Sparks Says Holly Boosters
Celebration Was Good

Holly entertained the largest
crowd in its history last Friday,
and did it so well that everyone of
the visitors went away satisfied.
An attendance of 1900 was antici-
pated by the most OptomiStic, but
these figures were exceeded cOnsid-
erably.
Hundreds of Lamar people mo-
tored to the east end metropolis,
and all of them stayed until late in
the night. The advertised pro-
gram was carried out practically
without a single change, affOrding
out the day.
The great thriller, of course, was
the big passenger carrying airplane
which was kept busy throughout
the afternoon making twenty-min-
ute flights with passengers who
had the nerve and the price essen
tial for this new form of sport.
F. w. johnson was the only La
mar man who tackled the game,
but there will probably be many
other converts when the aviator
stops here on his way back to Den
yer. Mr.. johnson says the sensa-
tiOn of flying through the air is
delightful, and he would not have
missed it for five times the price.
The Holly citizens spared no ef-
fort to provide for the comfort and
entertainment of their thousands
of guests, and they have good rea.
son to feel proud of the success
which attended their effOrts.-La-
mar Sparks.

SUMNER COMPLAINT IN

There is not anything like SO
many deaths from this disease now
as before Chamberlain Collie and

general use. When this remedy is

it is safe to say that fully ninety
nine out of every hundred eases
recover. Mr.. w. G. Campbell of But

Lamarites Envy the Camel

The old saying, who the H

it is getting so it would pay big di-

soft drinks - pay the government
tax OF ten per cent. If you want wa
ter-the city says so per cent extra
please. If you want something else
say boy, you don't get it a-tall. If
one could 60 nine days without a
drink he would feel some like he
was beating the game.-Lamar

Farmers Meeting at Mason

On November 1st many farmers
were called together at Mason for a
community meeting and program.
The towns Of Mason, Kelley and
Lincoln were well represented al
this meeting. The Mason CONNER
cial Club gave the farmers dinner
in the town hall which everyone
enjoyed.
The purpose OF this meeting was
to call the farmers together for
social, as we'll as business reasons.
Mason and her surrounding farms
are coming to the front. There is
no better soil than in this com
muni.y. What we need is faster
and cheaper methods to put the
land under pillow We can readily
see that the farmers of our country
are becoming more strongly organ
ized. All agricultural literature
will prove this, If you read it, as
farm rs organ Eat on is the fore
most topic of it's co umns. Through
such organizations farmers can get
legislation action on important laws
which will very materially benefit
| then.

but the question is to get the
buyer and seller together and
there is no better way to bring
this about than the establish
ment of a market place with
regular market days.
The city has the old town hall
building which could be tenn
porarily used as a market place
until such time as better place
could be provided.
If the farmers want to try
this out and will set their first
market day The Times will be
glad to give it publicity. Lets
have the market. The city peo-
pie will be glad to cooperate
with the farmers on this
proposition.
