$50 TONS OF COAL BURNED

A fire of presumably spontaneous
comustion was discovered in the west
end of the coal bin belonging to the
Farmers Elevator at Voda at about
2 o'clock last Friday afternoon and as
there was no water supply or no way
of getting any to 1.-THE fire gained
such headway that it could not be ex-
tinguished and there was nothing to
do but to let it burn. A telephone
call was sent out and many farmers
in that vicinity soon gathered and de-
voted their attention to saving the
elevator and what other property they
could. The coal shed was iron siding
on a wood frame but was connected
with the elevator by other frame
buildings With the aid of a tractor
and an iron cable these buildings were
soon torn down and moved out of the
way, thus leaving twenty-five or thir-
ty feet between the coal shed and the
elevator A good wind was blowing
from the south which carried the heat
away from the elevator thus saving
it from immediate destruction. On
account of there being such a. large
quantity of coal which could not burn
up readily it has been necessary to
keep a guard on hand all the time
since to protect the elevator from
sparks which might be driven by
shifting winds. The greatest loss to
the elevator company as well as to
the community, is the coal which had
been on hand for some time being
held in readiness for the threshing
season Another car of coal and
some box cars were standing near the
shed and would have been consumed
had not the engine on the jitney go
ing west been cut loose and moved
them out of the way.

OIL BUSINESS TIED UP

i Business on Walsh well No /,
north of Co1lyer is at a standstill just
at present. The tools and machinery
were sold under chatteI mortgage
foreclosure last Saturday but on ac-
count of suit which has been filed
whereby one-half interest in the
leases is sought, the property was not
bought by the parties who are now
supposed to operating the well. The
parties represented by Mr. McKnabb
are willing to put down the well and
viii do so just soon the other
differences can be adjusted. We un-
derstand the company represented by
Mr.. McKnabb has plenty of money
with which to do the work but they
are not willing to invest it in law
suit. It has been almost one year
since the drill was started in this well
and it has been drilled to a depth of
only a little over 1000 feet. Home
people are rather losing interest in it.
However, oil men claim the prospects
and location are as good as any they
have seen in the state and are an1d-
Que to have an interest in the business
and leases, hence the lawsuits.

EXPECT TO SEE 2sc CORN

IF our growing corn crop turns
out as well as present indications are,
we will no doubt see Csc corn next
fall and winter" declared E. E. Aux
sier of Dawson, Neb., here at the yards
today with stock. Mr.. Auxier is a
pioneer farmer and feeder of Rich
ardson county, banner corn produc-
ing section of the state. 1--WE raised
a large crop of corn last year, and we
did not do the usual amount of feed
ing last winter, consequently there
is large amount of corn carried
over and none was shipped out. The
growing crop of corn is promising
as we ever had, and the ground is full
of isture.'-Drovers' Telegram

FIRE CALL misunderstood

When the coal bin at the Farmers
elevator at Voda was found to be on
fire last Friday afternoon and realiz-
ing that it would be impossible to
save any of the coal and possibly not
the eIeva tor on account of lack of fire
fighting equipment, a phone message
was sent to Ellis asking that their
chemical fire engine and equipment be
sent up to Voda to help fight the fire.
Assurance was given that the en-
gine would be sent. Whoever received
the message at Ellis or whoever in
terpreted it to the head of the Ellis
fire department, got it that the fire
was in the west part of WaKeeney
and that on account of a lack of hose
several dwellings were endangered
and that it was necessary for the Ell
lis department to also bring addition
al hose. The Ellis men promptly
responded and were soon here with
their fire fighting apparatus but they
were warm" bunch of boys when
they found out the fire was at Voda
seven miles of here and that WaKee-
ney was not in danger whatever and
did not need assistance. They stayed
here for a short time and then re-
turned home without going to Voda.
They made some unpleasant remarks
about the person who would send out
such message as they had received
but such message was not sent out.
1t was the result of a misunderstand-
ing and a misinterpretation of the
real message on account of the ex-
element caused by a report of fire
and that the message came through
the WaKeeney central and called for
assistance west of WaKeeney instead
of in the west part of WaKeeney.

HOGS AND FED CATTLE HIGHER
SHEEP ACTIVE HIGHER

Kansas iCty Stock Yards, july 9Th.
Receipts today, considering they
represent arrivals since Saturday,
were light, and the market opened
with a better tone. Hog prices were
UP 10 to 20 cents, and the quotations
were the highest for some time. In
the cattle division, corn fed grades
were in light supply and they sold 10
to Is cents higher, Grass fed steers
which predominated continued to sell
slowly. Prices for beef in the East
were sharply higher. Sheep and
lambs were 25 cents higher.
Today's Receipts
Receipts today were 10000 cattle,
with 5000 cattle, 13, 900 hogs and 1900
sheep a week ago, and $500 cattle,
$500 hogs and 21o0 sheep a year ago
Beef Cattle
There was : sharp decrease in re-
ceipts of fed cattle, and killers seemed
fairly anxious for supplies. Prices
ruled strong to- Is cents higher with
an early clearance. Year1ings sold
up to Ss.25, and weigthy steers up
to $8.15. The bulk of the feed steers
brought $7.25 to $500. Plain grass
fat cattle were offered freely, and in
the opening rounds they were neglect
ed. Later the movement was at
steady prices compared with last
weeks close. Steers sold at $3.50 to
$500, and some wintered grassers at
1925 to $7.65. Veal calves and bulls
were steady.
Stockers and Feeders
Trade in stockers and feeders show
ed more activity than for some time
past. There was a good inquiry from
outside sources and demand indicated
that Eastern feeder demand has
started. Prices were quoted up 15
cents OF 25 cents.
| Hogs
Hogs sold 10 to 20 cents highea
| than last weeks close and into the
| highest position for some time past
| the top price was 5000, and bulk OF
sales $3.50 to So .95. More hogs sole
at $500 than at any other price, ane
the Is cent spread in the bulk o.
sales was the smallest in good man.
| months past. Strong demand from
packers practically eliminated ship
pers from competition. Receipts wer'
not sufficient to meet packer demand
l. Sheep and Lambs
1 Both sheep and lambs were quotes
strong to 25 cents higher. Nativ'
lambs sold up TO $9.75. Most of th'
ewes brought $3.50 to -$400, AM

AMERICAN LEGION NOTES

Kansas Department. Headquarters
has officially announced the change of
dates for the Third Annual State
Convention of the American Legion
which was scheduled to be held in
August. Because of conflict with the
National Guard Encampment which
many Legionnaires will be compelled
to attend, the dates have been def1n-
itely postponed to October 3, 4, and
5, 1921, Hutchinson, Kansas. It is
also felt that this will give better
opportunity of lining up the ten
thousand Kansas Legion members for
the National Convention which Will
be held in Kansas City just one
month later
The Legion Post at Minneapolis,
Kansas, has taken rather novel
means Of earning money to be used
for their Legion activities. Movies"
given occasionally under the auspices
of the post are we'll attended by the
felIow-citizens of the Legionnaires
and help greatly in the increase of
the Legion treasury.
The unidentified body of a young
| man killed by a motorcycle at St.
Paul, Mimi, recently escaped burial
|
possessions was discovered a small
gold locket containing a likeness of
| the man himself in the uniform of a
United States soldier. Members of
1 the American Legion took charge of
the body and the burial was with full
military honors. Efforts are now be-
| ing made by Legion men to establish
1 identity of the victim.
Invitations viii go out from the
American Legion National Convention
headquarters this week to each gov
ernor in the United States, request
| ing their persence at the convention
/ 1t is believed that all who possibly
can, will accept, because of the fact
that Kansas City Will harbor so many
distinguished guests during the three
days of the convention.
1 The "every member get a member
drive" for the American Legion
| started on the Fourth, and all the
Legion posts attempted to complete
the drive in one day, by doubling
their membership. The drive will lasi
until the membership is doubled
This was the last wish of the Iats

OLDRING RELEASED BY SEATTLE; JOINS
 CLUB AT NEW HAVEN

Rube Oldring, for the first half of the season utility outfielder of the Seattle Indians, has been released by the Seattle club so that he might accept tempting offer made him by the New Haven club of the Eastern League. OldrinG cost the Indians nothing, gave them the pest he had while with them and was permitted to make the best possible arrange ments for himself when the Indians could use him no more.
 At New Haven Oldring will be with Chief Bender, who is attempt ing to win another pennant for that city. but finding it much tougher go- ing than he experienced last season The New Haven club is the one in which Tyrus Raymond Cobb and Walter Johnson. famous American Leaguers, have il stock interest.
 Bender and Oldring were mighty important factors in the pennant winning days of the old Philadelphia Athletics and should they help New Haven towards a second pennant wilI furnish some great writing ma terial for Eastern League scribes as they go along.
 Should Help Bender
 Oldring should be of great help to "a young club such as Bender has. He can still play the outer gardens acceptably and in slightly lower baseball than the Coast should be able to hit pretty well. His coach ing work while with Seattle was worth his salary several times over Not one mental boot was charged up against the veteran in the daily ex cursions he made to the first and third base coaching lines.
