FARMER DIES AFTER
a.. BEING SHOT TWICE


Prentis Stansbury, farmer living
near Powell in Barry County, died
Friday morning, September /, two
hours after he had been shot by
Rando Garrett, farmer of the same
vicinity.
The two parties are said to have
had trouble for some time According
to the meager reports the circum-
stances leading to the shooting were
as follows
On the day previous to the shoot
ing, Stansbury went to the Garrett
home. Garrett was away at the time
and it is. said that Stansbury cursed
Mrs. Garrett and expressed his opin-
ion of her husband.
Stansbury returned home and put
up one Of Carrots hogs which was
running at large and notified Garrett
to come after it. When Garrett ar
rived the next morning to see about
the hog, Stansbury, according to the
report, attacked him with his fists and
after retreating some distance and
protesting against any further
trouble, Garrett drew revolver and
fired twice, both bullets entering
Stansbury's abdomen. Stansbury sue
cumbed to the wounds about two
hours later.
Soon after the shooting Garrett
went to Pineville anu surrendered to
the authorities at that place.
Both men are we'll known to the
people of this community. The de-
ceased is son of Tom Stanabu9y and
was raised on the Stansbury farm a
few miles northwest of Wheaton.
Garrett was born and reared in the
vicinity of Wheaton and had lived
there until about four years ago.

AIonett People Should Not Wait Until

The appalling death-rate from kid
ney disease is due largely to the fact
that the little kidney troubles are
usually neglected until they become
serious. The slight symptoms often
give place to chronic disorders and
the sufferer may slip gradually into
some serious form of kidney COM
plant.
If you suffer from backache, head
aches, dizzy spells; if the kidney Sc
cretions are irregular of passage do
not delay. Help the kidneys at once.
Doan's Kidney Pills are especially
for kidney disorders-they act where
others fail. Over one hundred thou
sand people have recommended them.
Here's case at home:
Mrs. Philip Steele, 1919 Fifth street
Monet, says: II used to suffer a
great deal with backache and sharp
pains through the small Of my back.
My kidneys would be put out Of order
at these times and acted irregularly.
However, Doan's Kidney Pills always
cured me Of these attacks in a short
time. have also given Doan's to one
of my children when she has been
bothered with kidney trouble. They
always give the same good results"

FILLING STATION

J. V. Nelson and Fl. A. Gardner
have closed a deal for the vacant lots
lying at the corner of Broadway and
Central Avenue at the west end of
Broadway, and will erect an up-to-
GATE filling station thereon.
Mr.. Gardner while on his tour
through the West made a careful
study of the different types and kinds
of filling stations, and finds that most
of the Western towns are equipped
with convenient filling stations and
that the people greatly appreciate the
conveniences afforded by them.
The station is to be about 20x42,
feet, with entrances thereto from both
Broadway and Central Avenue. It is
to be of white stucco and is to be
completed at cost of approximately
$4,000.
Mr.. Nelson who has been for several
years past proprietor of the Sanders
Five and Ten Cent Store at Monett,
will have charge Of the filling station,
and it is his purpose to be able to
accommodate the public and To furnish
his patrons with all kinds of motor
oils and the best grades Of gasoline.
He also plans to equip the grounds
with oil racks, ladies' rest room, ladies
and mems toilets, and all modern
conveniences. Construction work will
bepin at once.

SELL THROUGH OZARK

Joplin, Sept. 5.-The more than 100

or of the Upton Ford Fruit Growers
Association remaining with the Ozark
Fruit Growers Association in meet
ing held in Cedar Creek schoolhouse
Saturday afternoon Nc grower op-
posed the retention of the Ozark as
sales agent for the local association.
Growers reported their berry fields
in bad condition and badly in need of
rain. Rows made good progress in
the early summer but the shoots that
generally are sent out in August have
not taken root. Growers said that
condition was general over the district
P. A. Rodgers, general sales man
ager for the Ozark association, ex-
planned the handling of this years
crop and told why prices Of straw

the market this year and unanimously
indorsed the :dea by voting to sell
through the Ozark association.

the Ozark association and manager Of
the Jasper County Fruit & Truck

AUTO USED IN MAIL
ROBBERY is FOUND
Motor Car Abandoned by Bandits
Near McCune Kan.-Clues Are
Strengthened.

Miami, Okla, Sept. 4.-Finding of g
motor car used by three bandits, who
held up a mail truck near Commerce
Friday afternoon and escaped with
$14,200, has strengthened clues which
postal authorities say have worked
out and may lead to arrests soon.
u That announcement was made last
night by Bruce McWilliams, Miami
postmaster, who said that postoffice
officials still are investigating the
robbery and are not in the least dis
couraged with the progress they have
made.
Car Found Saturday.
The bandit car was found Saturday
abandoned in field near McCune,
Kan, fifty miles from the scene of the
robbery, by a farmer who notified
Cherokee county, Kansas authorities
at Columbus. The motor car, large
maroon-colored machine, was taken to
Columbus and was identified there
yesterday by postal and county au-
thorities, who went there from Miami.
In the car was found a number of
cancelled checks and vouchers which
were taken from the mail sack in
which the $14,2OO in bank funds had
been placed, and revolver which the
bandits took from Charles A. Carter,
mail truck driver. Carter was kid
mapped by the bandits, who took him
to a corn field near Melrose, Kan,
and there left him bound hand and
foot Carter did not accompany the
authorities to- Columbus to identify
the car but his description was suf-
ficient to make the Identification pos
itive.
1t was found that the car had been
stolen in Kansas City last Thursday.
Officials say they do not believe the
robbery was committed by Kansas
City outlaws.
The finding of the car is the first
trace of the bandits authorities have
found since Friday when they lost the
trail at the place where Carter was
left in the field.
Carter yesterday returned to his
job of operating mail truck be-
tween the Oklahoma mining towns.
Postal authorities said they were sat
isfied with his story of the robbery
and that he is clear of any suspicion
he may have been under.

The effort Of the Sumter Cream
cry Company to promote the dairy
financing the purchase OF dairy
ing industry in Sumter county by
COWS for farmers who haze the
land and iced but lack cash capital
to purchase cows, should receive
the support and cooperation Of all
the business men and banks. There
is a tremendous crop Of peavine
hay and velvet beans in the coun-
~ this year and it should all be
used at home. Every ton that is
shipped out OF the county will be a
loss. Sumter county needs a suf-
ffcient number OF dairy cows to
turn the peavine hay and velvet
beams into butter. The whole
community should get in behind
the creamery proposition and give
it the support essential to its de-
velopment and success. The pres
ent moment is the time the dairy
ing industry needs financial sup
pport and cooperation, and s10e.-
600 invested in good cows now will
do more for the restoration OF
prosperity than it would in any
other way.
