81 pounds. In discussing this with
Mr.. Henry Pope, he related his ex-
perience with a piece of cotton
grown on the same piece of land
during 1911 and 1912. In 1911 the
cotton was planted in ordinary
rows and thinned the ordinary way
and made something like 1000
pounds. The next year the land
was planted to black berries and a
row of cotton worked between the
berry rows. This made the cotton
rows better than seven feet apart
and was spaced "a inches in the
drill. The yield was something like
1920 pounds on the same field that
the 1000 was picked from the pre-
vious year.

TAYLOR'S GARAGE
RECOGNIZED BY

We did not know until just few
days ago that Otis Taylor's garage
in Dresden had been designated a
training station for disabled SOL
diers by the federal vocation board
of the U. S. government. Otis is a
modest young fellow and didn't tell
us, but as we presume many others
are like ourselves and do not know
the recognition bestowed upon this
worthy young man, we are going to
publish the fact, even at this late
date.
Messrs. John Bynum and Sidney
Coleman, ex-service men, are here
at Taylor's garage receiving voca-
tional training under the experienced
tutorage of Mr.. Taylor. They are
sent here by the government, and
another is expected to arrive at
once.
Mr. Taylor has been rendered a
government automobile for his use
and the use of students sent here
and will be very likely to go to
Baltimore later in the season, when
he can catch up with his work, and
drive the big Cadillac to Dresden.

The rains the past week made con-
ditions ideal for planting summer
garden crops. Every available space
in the garden should be planted to
some crop. Late corn and beans
are planted even later than this.
Beets, carrots, late potatoes, cab
bage are all planted in July. Where
these crops are not wanted, the old
crops now standing Should be worked
out and row Of white peas planted

and crowd out the large weeds that
are usually found growing in the

NEWS FROM THE AGRICULTURAL COMMITTEE

\ Week ending July II. The farm
ers of the county were ready for a
weeks good working weather, as
much of the bottom corn and tobac-
co, potatoes and cotton, were ready
for work, the old corn and hay crop
practically being safe. Good time
was put in till Wednesday at noon,
when good rain fell in most sec
tons of the county and delayed cul-
tivation in some sections till Thurs
day at noon. Work was resumed in
general Friday morning and again
delayed Saturday by another rain.
Taking crops as a whole, old corn
and cotton made good improvement,
as we'll as the tobacco and young
corn that had been cleaned out the
week previous. A few small bot
tom fields of corn indicate that
work will be abandoned, due to the
rain of the previous week being
heavy in certain sections. Taking
the crop conditions as whole over
the county, all except few are well
satisfied with conditions.
A trip through the western section
of the county on Monday found
every one busy at work and with
few exceptions crops in good shape.
Many fields of old corn were re-
ceiving a late cultivation as well
as late thinning and hoeing. The
corn club acres of Vester Crider,
Earl and Harold Brewer and Jessie
Chappell were under a fine state of
cultivation and prospects flatter-
ing. Of the men visited Messrs.

wild, free, natural lives to their hearts
content. but as it is with me in real
life, boys, 1 reckon I'll have to be
satisfied With the pinto pony. Congo,
Wolf. 'Lizabeth and Cactus Kate.
Lizabeth is the big mule that I
acquired after she worked so nobly in
one of the pictures made out on the
Mojave desert. She was such a wise
old mule that l couldn't resist the
temptation TO buy her from the grad
ing camps where she toiled. and re-
ward her with a share in the luxurious
corral and green pastures of the pinto
pony.
! About this time the pinto pony was
just rounding out two years of ease in
retirement, and he was getting too fat
and sassy.
And so, altho I didn't make him
work until 1 started this new produc-
ton contract. l took the pinto along
occasionally on location" Among the
cowboy outfit which / use in my pic
lures there was a gentle mare whom
the punchers had humorously dubbed
Cactus Kate" Cactus is mighty
tough, but Kate isn't. didn't have
much trouble in persuading the punch
er who owned Cactus Kate to sell her
to me. when 1 discovered that the
pinto pony liked her. And so. these
three-the two horses and the mule
nave become great cronfeS- l have a
big corral for them on my Hollywood
ranch, which is constantly guarded by
Wolf. the big Malamute dog.
From all over the world my motion
picture friends send cube sugar to
the pinto pony. and as he couldn't be-
gin to eat il all. he divides the delica-
cies with his pals. I'm afraid it would
go mighty hard with me If / visited
these pets of mine without filling my
pockets with sugar. They know it is
there, and they come a-nosing and
n {,1er 7 10 7
pretend that I haven't any sugar in
my pockets. and straightway the three
chastise me just as if / were a small
boy.
Recently I had occasion to take the
pinto pony to the top of a mountain
| range some fifty miles away from the
studio ranch. We had only a short
time in which to work, so / trans
ported the pinto in a motor truck.
What do you think? He was mad
because / didn't take Lizabeth and
Cactus Kate. And, for all the world
like a spoiled human being. when we
reached the location and had mount
ed him. he refused to bulge. When
l spoke to him sharply he turned and
looked at me. And, il eyes could ex-
press what he was thinking. he sure
told me what he thought of me. To
emphasize his displeasure, he reached
back and bit my booted leg. But
knew the pinto's weak point. So. I
fumbled in my pockets until l got his
attention. He was some mad. but
gradually he weakened, and when I
extended the peace offering he forgot
his peevishness and pranced off in all
his pride and glory.
Boys. as long. as 1 live. my pets will
have good home for the rest of their
lives. Treat your pets right. They
| live only few years, as we human
! beings estimate time. They haven't
any money to buy what they like. so
let's see to it that they never want for
the luxuTies that make them happy
and contented.

Makes Car Number Show Up a

CITY MAY REQUIRE ITS USE
Invention Combines Tail Light

w. L. Kemper Also Invented

Ever stand on a street corner some
dark night and try to read the license
numbers of the autos driving past
If you have you probably gave 1t up in
disgust unless you happened to bring
your spotlight and a telescope.
1t has remained for a Topeka man
to eliminate the necessity for the two
latter articles. W. L. Kemper, a local
electrician. who recently invented the
auto headlight oscillator. has now
stepped forward with a device that
makes the license number show up a
block away in the dark. The more
inky the night the palmer the num-
Der appears With this invention on
a car, even n cop can see the number
Construction of the Light.
The device consists of a semi-cir-
cular pressed metal box arrangement,
bOlted to the rear Of the car with the
flat side out. The license tags, with
this system in use. would be made the
- me as at present with the exception
that the letters would be cut out en-
tirely. instead Of being raised and en-
bOssed as they now are. The tail-light
bulb is brought inside the box the in
terror Of which is FURNISHED to ampli-
~ the illumination. The convex rear
throws the fun force of the light
against the tag. making the figures
show up bright and red hundreds of
feet away. the tag having been slipped
into hinged grooves and sealed.
The device can be installed on any
car at a nominal cost. Kemper says.
BY cutting out the letters with stem
ellis. the license tags could be pro-
duced by the state at less cost than at
present. according to the inventor.
The manner In which the tags are
sealed in makes it impossible for any
one to remove them without breaking
the seals. In event the car is stolen
be easily descernible to officers. The
box can be opened to repair the tail
light or replace bulbs without remov-
ing the tag.
Present System inefficient.
state laws provide that license
tags be sufficiently Illuminated at
night to make them legible.'' said
Kemper. NO doubt this is done in
most cases as well as the system now
in use VIII permit. But the system
Is inefficient. Anyone who has seen
the new device demonstrated will en-
thuse over It. The numbers, used in
the present manner, cannot be read
in the dark more than a few feet be-
hind the car"
In the day time. with the tail light
turned off, the figures are as legi-
BILE as the present ones.
City May Adopt 1t.
City officials have expressed en-
thusiasm over the new invention and
it IS not improbable that a city ordi
nance, OF even a state law, may be
enacted requiring all cars to be
equipped with this arrangement.
Kemper's headlight oscillator,
which he recently patented. renders it
possible for the driver of a car to
lower his headlights by means of a
control on the dash board so that the
binding rays fall below the eyes of
drivers approaching from the oppo-
site direction.

way in February, 1887. Charles C.
Woods, president of the Stockton Ma
tional bank, had a map printed. and
every new railroad that was charter
ed, If Stockton was on the charter,
he would draw a line in red ink to
Stockton. The last time your corre-
spondent saw the map an even dozen
of lines had been drawn, for which
charters were granted. Some news
paper man wrote a letter to an east
ern paper saying: "If all these roads
are built to Stockton it ought to be a
good move to try and get the state
capital located here" Only one rail-
road was built, the Missouri Pacific.
Woodston was named in honor of the
man Woods. who made some generous
senting a large bell to the town to be
placed on the first school house. He
died some years ago.
An indications of the prosperity of
Thomas county is reflected in the in
crease in the number of banks in that
county. The first visit of your item
izer there was one bank. and that in
Colby. For several years two banks
carried on the business. In later years
her banks increased to half a dozen. a
third one in Colby, one at Rexford, one
at Brewster and one in Menlo. In the
last sixty days six more applications
for charters have been made, the sec
ond bank in Brewster. two for Rex
ford one for Halford and two for
Mingo. If these six charters are
granted, Thomas county will be sup
piled with a dozen banks. In the June
crop report that county is put down as
"a per cent in winter wheat condition.
From other sources it is claimed the
county never had a better showing
for a big crop than at this time. If II
natures in good conditions as it now
looks the county will need more than
a dozen banks to keep the surplus
money.
The Northwest Kansas Editors as
ISOLATION was a lively organization for
several years. 1t started out with a
membership of more than fifty. Many
entertaining meetings were held in the
different towns, including Beloit.
Downs, Osborne Stockton, Colby and
other places. So far as this writer
remembers the last meeting was held
in Norton. That town was large
enough to feed and sleep all the edi-
tors in the Sixth district. The people
of Norton arranged a fine program.
They had also engaged several vehi-
cles to meet the Missouri Pacific edi-
tors at Edmond. fifteen miles south.
AS fine a banquet supper as the town
ever served to visiting guests was
spread in a spacious hail. The con-
veyances returned with only five edi-
tors, ]. W. Mcbride, Cawker City.
