NOTABLES WILL BE HERE
Prominent Men of the State Will lie
Here During the Stockmen's
Convention
Robert Graham received a lettre
this week from Dr. Chas. B. Lee, of
the state university, stating that he
Would be here on one of the conven
tion dates, and at that time would
deliver an address on an appropriate
subject.
As both Senator Hitchcock and
Governor Morehead have signified
their Intention of attending at least
one day, this brings the number up
to three, and it is probable that sev
eral other state officials will be here.

You don't have to be everlastingly watching the "want" columns
if you have the knowledge that not only puts you in a good position,
but that also keeps you there at a steadily increasing salary.
It's not a question of being a walking encyclopedia, but of having
the sound, practical training that makes you an expert at your chosen
calling that brings you a good salary year in and year out that puts
you first on the promotion list and last or the "laid-off list" that keeps
your position safe and sound while other tiaps axe going the rounds
looking for work.
The International Correspondence Schools, of Scranton, deal in train
ing for higher salaries. The I. C. S. comes right to your home and makes
you an expert whether you're sixteen or sixty whether you live one or
one thousand miles away whether you're an outside or an inside man.
Does it in your spare time, without requiring you to buy a single book.
To learn how the I. C. S. can help you, mark the attached coupon and
mail it today. No charge for the information and advice it brings.
A Good Position
and More Money
Not a dollar or two more, but
your salary doubled, trebled,
quadrupled. That's the kind of
success thousands of poorly paid
men and women have already
won through I. C. S. help. On
an average 400 students every
month voluntarily report salaries
increased and multiplied as the
direct result of I. C. S. help.

Over 90 per cent of
Business Men Fail
Men fail in business because they do not know the game.
They lack system and a thorough knowledge of their business.
The reason why so many would-be farmers fail is because they
know little or nothing of the science of farming. They think
anybody can farm and then are surprised to find that their
crops will not grow. The farmer who is always behind, who
always has bad luck with his crops, is the man who farms by
guess and trusts to luck. If he were in the mercantile business
he would be in the hands of a receiver within a year. He is
a failure but he hangs on because the poorest farmer can get a
living out of the land if he only plows and sows the seed.
An Agricultural Education
The first thing a young man who intends to go into busi
ness should do is to take a course in a business college. Here
he can become familiar with the first principles of business,
without which he will fail The first thing a man who expects
to farm should do is to take a course in an agricultural college,
if he can, but if he has not the time or the money to spend in a
two-year course, he can get the same instruction at home by
taking a course in the Campbell Correspondence School of Soil
Culture. Everything is furnished books and all at a very
slight cost, and the best thing about it, he does not have to
leave the farm or his work.
He can choose from the following courses :
Soil Improvement Course
Horticultural Course
Small Farming Course
Summer is the time to study agriculture, and the farm and
garden is the laboratory in which to work out the problems.
Don't wait for fall or winter to begin, but get bsuy now. Tou
will learn more in one summer applying your instruction in the
fields than in a dozen winters sitting by the fire.
Send for our catalog If umber 8. It will not cost you a cent.

Refrigerator Time
OUR LINE IS WORTH WHILE
Some people have the idea that just because a refrigerator,
or in fact any other article of furniture, is "second hand", it
has outlived its usefulness. This is most emphatically not the
case. Often times people oll practically new refrigerators
simply because they do not care to ship them to another loca
tion on account of the freight and because they are always
damaged somewhat in shipping. We have-several refrigera-'
tors on hand that are just as good as new, and we are
SELLING THEM CHEAP
Why pay a high price for a refrigerator when it is proba
ble that you will use it only one season f Our refrigerators are
the best makes on the market. We ask the privilege of show
ing them to you, for we are sure we can suit you.
' And remember that we carry many other lines of second
hand furniture and furnishings, some of which cannot be told
from new.

GOOD
IS ALWAYS
It never pays to buy cheap, shoddy furniture, for you af
terwards regret it. What is as pleasing as a room furnished
tastily with attractive furniture and fixtures? One article of
furniture may spoil the entire effect of a" room arrangement
on account of being worn out or of shabby appearance.
We can furnish the house from cellar to garret, and we
guarantee our goods to be the best on the market, and at prices
that make it economy for you to anticipate your needs for
months ahead. All the new, sensible styles, of pleasing ap
pearance and high grade quality.
The fact that we turn our stock rapidly is responsible for
our always carrying the latest models of everything in the
housefurnishing line. It matters not whether you want a
dresser, bedstead, rug, refrigerator, porch swing, buffet, rock
ing chair or dining chair, we can serve you. It is always a
pleasure to show goods.

FINK SEED POTATOES
Have a car of Minnesota Red Riv
er Ohio seed potatoes ordered. They
are free from scab and dry rot. Each
farmer should get enough to plant
Ore acres this year. It will not cost
you much to get enough for five acres
and it will pay you big to get pure
seed that command a better price on
the market when you raise them to
sell. I have given Mr. Seidell a
sample of this seed. Ask him his
opinion on this seed and to snow you
the sample. Place your order with
me at once for your amount. Deliver
ed price if taken off the car Is 90
cents per bushel sacked.

Ilulea
Each car should be well supplied
with oil, gasoline and extra tire and
tubes, before starting.
In Case of puncture, blow-out or
other accident the driver will pull
out to the roadside and the next two
cars will assist him while the other
cars following will continue the Jour
ney. The three cars will then re
sume the trip and overtake the pro-'
cession as soon as possible.
The average speed will not exceed
twenty miles an hour. Maximum
speed is not to be more than twenty
five miles an hour and then only af
ter delay. The distance between two
cars when traveling will not be less
than 300 feet.
These rules to govern In all four

These showers that disappear by
