and the betterment of conditions
for those who live here; a man
who, as a neighbor and a citizen,
has been esteemed most highly.
He was greatly interested in leg

without prejudice to party prin
ciples and especially was he an
advocate of prohibition.

FOR FARMERS BENEFIT
The orchard contributes a large share
of the living of tLe family and to neg
lect It means a direct monetary loss.
Now Is the time to prune out the desd
wood and to thin out the centers so that
sunlight can enter and help to ripen tbe
fruit It pay to spray with a lime
sulphur solution made up a follows:
80 pounds lime
60 pounds sulphur
80 gallons water.
Boil about 30 minutes and dilute tbe
remaining liquid in the proportions of
one to eight. One gallon of the solu
tion to eight gallons of water.
Over a thousand acres of alfalfa will
be seeded in Wheeler county this spring
and the majority of the land will bave
the aeed innoculated with nitrogen bac
teria. Are you going to do the same?
It pays for several tried it last year
and secured good stands. When one
considers that a stand of alfalfa will
last for 20 years the extra work in pre
paring a good seed bed and using proper
seed is time and money well invested.
If you plan to raise few bogs this
yesr try plar.ting an acre or two of
field peas. It is surprising how the
bogs fatten on peas in the summer
and late fall

Just a little bit of inside information
in regard to tbe Kolb and Dill produc
tion to be shown at the American Thea
tre tomorrow (Saturday) night Some
of tbe big scenes in "Beloved Rogues"
are set in a hardware store, and here
it is that Mike and Louie (Kolb and
Dill) earn their daily bread and here it
ia that they set out to "do" the Hard
ware Trust as they were "done" by
the trust
As you remember Dill was married k
short while "go and when he heard
that the company had to get in a sup
ply ef hardware for the store in the
production he aaw a way to save the I
company some little money and also
save his own bankroll. Dill told Kolb
that as long as everyone in the studio
was a pretty good friend of his that it
might he a good idea for Kolb to ask
them all to give him and hia wife a
kitchen shower and the tinware could
be used in the store in "Beloved Rogues."
Strange to relate, everyone fell for
the bright ''idea" and the next night
the iiggest "kitchen shower" ever
held was given at the American studio.
If you wish to see some of the tinware
heaped on Mr. and Mrs. Dill, you want
to see "Beloved Rogues."
