They removed from Missouri to Nebraska in 1800 and Mr. Hobbs came to Wyoming in 1880. Mrs. Hobbs joined her husband in this state in 1887, and they have re sided here ever since.

The Good Hoads meeting plan ned by the Commercial club for Saturday afternoon, May 20, at 3 o'clock, is going to be one of the banner occasions of the season. "Good Roads" King is a winner and every man who can get into the opera house should hear him. Below is a short sketch of who Mr. King is and what he is doing, which is iaken from the Hed Oak (Iowa) Express: D. Ward King, the discoverer of the split-log drag, has been wide ly advertised as a farmer. He has lived for over twenty-five years on the farm which he improved from the native prairie sod and he lives there yet. Moreover, Mr. King is an enthusiast on farming and on the delights and advantages of farm life. But it is not generally known that the famous roadmaker is city born and bred. We listened with much surprise to Mr. King when in conversation the other day lie told us that until be hud attained his majority he had never put a collar on a horse or washed his face out of doors Mr. King was obliged to give up city life and move to the farm while a young man for the sake of his health, which was slipping away from him in the city's less invigorating atmosphere and environments. Fully cognizant of his ignor ance, and naturally cautious, he began his farming by consulting with the best and most successful farmers in his vicinity, tested their advice and experimented on his own account We are showing a large stock of hair switches guarenteed absolutely human hair and sanitary.

ZUCKWEILER&LUTZ MAIL ORDER GOODS ARE LARGELY INFERIOR GOODS Why You Make Money by Pur chasing at Home and Get a Better Quality of Goods. The impression prevails with some people that it is cheaper to buy of mail order bouses and of merchants in distant cities than at the home store. By buying at home, however, you avoid paying a share of the enormous rentals and taxes of some vast metropolitan establish ment. You also save your share of the army of clerks that it takes to run that distant and complicat ed machine. If the distant emporium keeps a larger assortment than the home store, the customers have to pay for it. Such extended lines IftAHBOMlUSj wstm wahoo.ncb The Best Flour in the Market.

He reports the, work at the Smith factory as moving right along. There are forty girls operating machines at this lime and the plant will take as many more as they can get. The work on spring goods was ended Tues day and the plant has begun on flannels. The run on flannels will last until August at least. cannot all prove to be of staple To this fact Mr. King attributes vtt,u0- Ma.y of J1'1 (ar,c mit oul the discovery of a number of in- " ' ' ' l" " " ' ' " novations, the result of an open mind and an investigating spirit, of which log road dragging is one. "The man who was raised on the farm," says Mr. King, is prone to do things as his father did, who perhaps took pattern voung man's grandfather. While in my case I had all lo learn and it seemed natural to try to select the best methods." Mr. horseman and lectures management of horses desire. When they fail to meet the demand of the hour, they are withdrawn and sold at a great loss.
