Notwithstanding the return-t-g high waters of the Missouri river, those who have acquired land on the river bottom, are getting ready to try a go with the 'Big Muddy' again this season. W. J. Hartwick is now preparing to put in 4S acres of corn, and will give it a good hard tussle for a crop, and if the river docs not cause him to much trouble will make a good crop on the land which he has acquired. The land is rich, and will bring the coin should the water not drown it out, and the only way to raise the crop is to go after it and do one's best, leaving the other matter to the river. HIS DAUGHTER AT HOSPITAL From Friday"? Daily. J. Dee Shrader of Omaha, former ly of this city and Murray, came in this afternoon from Omaha, and is looking after some business here for the afternoon. Mr. Shrader has just disposed of the Hotel St. James, which he has been conducting for some time past and has gone out of business. He ran down here to look after some business this afternoon, but had to get back this afternoon, as he has a daughter Miss Margery, who is at the St. Joseph Hospital, where she has been treated for peri tonitis. While she has beeu very sick she is showing good improve ment at this time, and it is hoped that she will be able to leave the in stitution in the near future. If I Were a Farmer. . If 1 were a farmer 1 would keep at hand a few reliable medicines for minor ailments that are not so ser ious as to require the attention of a physician, such as Chamberlain's Colic and Diarrhoea Remedy for bowel complaints. Chamberlain's Cough Remedy for coughs, colds and croup. Chamberlain's Liniment for sprains, bruises and rheumatic pains. Chamberlain's Tablets for stomach troubles, biliousness and constipa tion. By having these articles at hand it would orten save the trouble of a trip to town in the busiest season or in the night, and would enable me to treat slight ailments as soon as they appear, and thereby $void the more serious diseases that so often follow.

Falter, have cn their farm, an falfa meal mill, where they grind up the alfalfa hay into the leak, with a set of burrs, making -the or dinary alfalfa mpal, which is being fed to their slock on the farm, with the best of success. They have a Ford auto rigged to do the work of grinding, it being one of the attach incuts which is being considered at this time as offering promising re turns through being manufactured in this city. The device is of such nature that after it has been attach ed for such use as this, it can be left right on the car while it is being driven over the country, or it can be easily detached if even that is de sired although there is no occasion for it. The Ford car, by reason of being about the lightest car and al so through its universality, offers a wide field for the attachment to be applied upon, and at the same time furnishes plenty of power to. operate almost any farm machinery imagin able.- A larger car, upon which the attachment, could also be applied, would, of course, supply more power if that were desired.
