lives near by, was al Louisville

The house was a seven room

ACOUT SEED ADVICE.
lvlilor Omaha Daily News: I
lliink the Nebraska fanner will
come out 'right side up with care'
in spile of those fellows that are
Inking- such a lively interest in
the farming business. It is
humiliating1 to us farmers and
gelling irksome lo see the papers
lllb'd up wilh uncalled for advice
about selecting seed, ft puts me
in mind of a story.
One time a practical farmer
raised ;v large family of boys.
They, wilh one cxceplion, turned
out to be successful farmers,
bought large tracts of land, built j
line bouses, stocked up their!
ranches and enjoyed life. One
son, the youngest of the family,
made a botch of everylhinp' that
he undertook, did not amount, to
much, could never learn to get,
good results from his labors,
could not gel interested in his
calling, lie unit his job in disgust,
went to town and went into the
business of running an agricul
tural paper, telling his brother
bow lo select seed, gather pump
kins, etc. T suppose he now holds
a job in some department, of the
rural life commission, probably
general manager.
Now. Mr. l-ldilor, f take your
paper for Ihe news, and I don't
care lo be made so lired reading
so much tommy-rot Dial I can't
enjoy your olherwise interesting:
paper of which I am a subscriber.
1 suppose if we farmers succeed
in raising a bumper crop Ibis year
that that traveling oullit will
claim all the credit. Thank good
ness I here is a source from which
every blessing comes I hat we can
rely on, and f, for one, will give
him Ihe thanks if I succeed in
raising a crop, big or lillle. Pro

Blue Porcelain Enameled
STEEL RANGES
-:- AN ORNAMENT FOR TIDY HOUSEWIFE -:-
JNURABILITY and cleanliness are the
special features of the Quick Meal
Blue Enameled Steel Ranges.
This ranie is entirely coated with eu
amel on a specialy prepared steel body and
is fused onto the steel at a temperature
of 2,000 degrees Fahernheit in such a way
that the enamel becomes a part of the
steel itself, therefore it cannot corrode or
become rusted by acids.
These ranges have triple walls the
outer wall (made of special steel) is cov-
castiron emj w-t1 a coat Qf enamei on sides.
BLUE ENAMEL anj m ajj,tion to this has an extra coat
of blue enameldotted with white on the outer side.
Next comes a sheet of asbestos, the best heat retainer made, ami
then another sheet of steel enameled on lioth sides.
The beauty of this range can hardly be appreciated until you have
seen the range itself.
