CANARY HOLDS UP BUSINESS.
But Bird In Happy When He Gets
Back Home Again.

st. John, Kan.,. July 21.-Business
was virtually suspended here the other
day when Mrs C. z. Leslie's canary
escaped from It's cage and flew to the
city park in the center of town.
Strenuous efforts were made to
catch the bird but without success
Probably half the persons in the bust
ness houses around the square were
taking part, at times, in the work OF
capturing the little canary but it
thwarted them by staying well up in
the tops of the trees.
Even Mrs. Jim Ridenour's canary
bird was brought to the park and its
cage hung in a tree with the Leslie
birds cage hung nearby, but that was
no inducement to the little fellow to
give up his freedom.
Finally the chase was abandoned.
The next day a tourist, who had
been a party to the previous chase,
found the bird in a. tree at the tourist
camp. The bird was chilled and al
most famished from lack of food and
water. The tourist notified Mrs. Les
lie and she took the bird cage to the
camp and placed it near the bird. 1t
imm ediately hoped into its cage and
Mrs. Leslie said the bird seemed as
happy to get back home as she was
to have it back.

Il believe in giving everything its
due and I want to say right now I
just can't praise Tanlac too highly for
what it has done in my case" de-
clared James p. Humphreys, pro-
prietor Of the Hebron Motor Co.,
Hebron, Nd.
For three years or more I suffered
from indigestion. After eating would
bloat terribly with gas and my heart
would palpitate until it interfered with
my breathing. I was habitually con-
stipated and my nerves were all upset.
My sleep was unsound, I got up morn
ings all tired out, and 1 was only a
shadow of my former self
We'll, Tanlac has given me keen
appetite, stomach trouble has disap-
peared, my nerves have steadied down,
and I have gained several pounds.
Tanlac, to my mind, is the best thing
ever sold for stomach trouble and
rundown condition"
Tanlac is sold by all good druggists.

FOR TRUCK PATCH
Montgomery County Man, "a,
Makes Good Money.
'.It's in the Small Farm, Tho"
Aged Farmer Explains.

| Independence. Kan, July 21.-Al-
| tho II years old. z. T. Lewis of Mont
somery county has cleared a greater
net profit every year from twenty
acres. intensively managed. since
1912, than he was able to average
from a 32O-acre farm during e much
longer period.
Lewis farmed on a Dig scale for
| thirty-five years in southwestern
Kansas. most of the time operating
and fed about 200 head of cattle
every year. To do IL ne employed
considerable help and had to keep a
number of horses.
Labor and other costa were always
heavy and when Lewis figured up at
the end of year hesfound that the
balance he could term profit usually
was small and disappointing.
II have cleared from $1,000 to
$1,000 every year on my 2O-acre
patch" said Mr.. Lewis, "and that is
more than ever made on my S2c-acre
farm after 1 had paid all expenses.
So have come to the conclusion that
if man will farm the acreage he can
handle without employing help he VIII
get along better and get ahead faster
than if he attempts TO manage a
larger farm"
Lewis turned from grain farming
and cattle feeding to truck growing,
not because he could no longer do the
work on the bigger farm but because
he was convinced that concentrated
effort on small scale would produce
the greatest returns.
Truck is grown on seven or eight
acres. alfalfa on five, and pasture On
four Nearly all truck crops are pro-
duced, including potatoes, sweet corn,
sweet potatoes, watermelon canta-
loupeS, onions, tomatoes, beans and
the common garden vegetables.
Irish potatoes, sweet potatoes, mel
onS and sweet corn are the principal
crops. Lewis grows an acre of sweet
potatoes year, obtaining a yield of
zoo or 800 bushels. His Irish pota-
toes, grown on two acres, have yielded
as high as 200 bushels an acre. Two
acres of sweet corn have produced as
much as $125 worth of roasting ears
to the acre. One year Lewis sold SIS
worth OF roasting ears to persons who
came to the place. FromMone acre
Mr.. Lewis has sold $500 worth of can
taloupes, he reports. His watermel-
ons usually bring in from 500 to $3.50
an acre.
One hundred Plymouth Rock hens.
three milk cows and a Few hogs meet
the living expenses of Mr.. and Mrs
Lewis. Having a sweet tooth, Mr.
Lewis also keeps several swarms of
bees.
