WRITE FOR MY
LITERATURE,
IT'S FREE
I am mailing out thousands of copies
of my publication, "Hungerford's Farmer
and Rancher" to easterners whom I be
lieve should be Interested in securing for
themselves and families a western home.
Dawes County is one of the four fore
most counties In the State In the yield
of crops the per acre yield. Yet, only
about 16 per rent of this county la under
cultivation. The balance, about 84 per
cont Is covered with native grasses, the
buffalo, wheat and gramma grass. About
76 per cent of the country is culttvatlble
and all we need Is men of energy. If you
have a few hundred dollars and a de
termination to succeed, write to me for
my literature, explaining Dawes County,
then, after you have read it, come up
and see m and let me show you my
country and the places I have for aate.
You will be surprised at the vast oppor
tunities that await you here. Don't de
lay but write me today, then don't let
anyone Us to you and tell you that they
know this country and this and that
but come and see for yourself. I have
some excellent opportunities here for In
vestment Improvement for the man who
has some money to Invest and yet can
not move here himself. I can rent his
land to good advantage and bring him In
good returns, besides the rapid Increase
In valuation. There Is no chance to get
away from a profit of 26 to 300 or 300
per oent. However, I am catering especial
ly to the man who will come in and
help to develop the country, but I have
many Inquiries from men who want to
rent places here and can take excellently
good care of a few Investors who have
the money but not the time. My country
Is known by every man, woman and child
In the middle west as "The Land of In
dependence," "The Garden Beyond the
Sand Hills." Drop me a card or a letter
today for a copy of my "Farmer and

WOMEN OF CHINA
ITS BEST ASSETS
Miss Emma Hnneker Tells of
Her Visit With Her Sister,
Mrs. Lobingier,
CELEBRATES JULY 4 THERE
Miss Emma Huneker, who has just
returned from a ten months' visit in
the Philippines, Japan and China, has
many interesting things : i say of the
life among the Americans of the
Orient, Miss Huneker spent a large
part of her time in Shanghai as the
guest of her sister, Mrs. Charles S.
Lobingier, wife of the ' !ge of the
American court for China. The United
States and Great Britain are the only
countries who have availed themselves
of the privilege granted by China of
stablishing such courts for the bene
fit of their resident citizens. Mrs.
Lobingier went to Shanghai in Feb
ruary. 1914.
Miss Huneker found the Orient ex
tremely interesting because of its rad-

Shanghai, because of its large Eng
lish and American population, was
particularly notable. On the streets.
old Chinese customs and sights jos
tled wtih the new world peoples and
scenes. The picturesque rickshaws"
jostled with foreign motor cars and
people of every nation bumped elbows
in the throng.
Official Life.
"The official life of Shanghai ii
particularly delightful," said Miss Hu
neker. "vlhe otticers ana tneir iam
ilies arc all neoote of superior educa
tion and charming culture. During my
. t- i.T r n -.4
Sla) in onuilKnai x was cuici taujeu
with Jude and Mrs. Lobingier at
luncheon on board the ship Brooklyn
bv Admiral Wintcrhalttn, in com
and of the Asiatic fleet.
"The American women of Shanghai
have oreanized a thriving club. in
soite of their arduous social duties,
they take a faithful interest in their
rlnh and make it a source of interest
and benefit. Philanthropic, art, music
and literature departments are main
tained. My sister, Mrs. Lobingier, is
president of this club, and organized
fir, wnman'ft club in Manila.
"Just before 1 lett (.on jury 3) i
witnessed an unusual sight. Ameri
can Shanghai celebrated the Fourth
of July. First there was a parade of
the American volunteers and of the
naval men from the Asiatic fleet. Then
th. American ambassador from Pe
king delivered an address. These were
followed by a very American dinner
at the Astor house and a ball in the
evening.
Women Remarkable.
"The Chinese women are most re
markable. They have been held in
subjection and under the narrowing
influence of superstition so long that
some are not yet able to stand forth,
but those who do are wonderful.
Their grasp of western ideas and be
liefs is truly surprising ana incir
poise is an accomplishment to be
coveted. Thev are unexcelled as pub
lic speakers. Of course, this work is
done in connection with the schools
and the mission stations,
"The McTevmer school In Shanghai
was established for the benefit of the
daughters of wealthy families and the
irls who attend are extraordinary,
wenty-six of the graduates of this
school are in American colleges. Au
thorities have said that China s great
est undeveloped resource is its women!"
Miss Huneker was delighted with
Chinese scenery of which we in
America hear verv little. One city
in particular she mentioned which is
called the Venice of the tast. Like
Venice, it has beautiful canals and
artistic sights. This Chinese Venice
is located fifty miles from Soochow.
The ocean vovage was very pleas
ant Miss Huneker came by the
northern route through the inland
sea of Japan. With all the wonderful
scenes which she saw she has lost
none of her loyalty to her own coun
try, for she savs that the mountain
lakes of America are just as beauti
ful as any in Japan.
Miss Huneker left this afternoon
for her home in Bay City, Mich.
