Buying Grain
Farming only pays when the man who manages
the farm receives at- least one half of the net income
from the farm.
Grain and stock should be bought by individual
buyers who take an interest in keeping posted on the
market.
Co-operative associations will never be a success
until they sell at least one-half their stock to their
managers.
Bring your Grain and Stock to us. Thirty-six
years' experience on "market conditions' and "grading
up" grain. Free to our customers.

meeting in Mogen.-en's Hall lurre

nent breeders of the county were
piesent which included some twelve
of the president of the different or
ganizations or auxiliaries of the as
sociation. In the election of officers for the
.permanent organization all old offi
cers were elected which were: Luke
Wiles president; K. C. Pollard, secre
tary; Searle Davis treasurer. Some
twelve other elections were mads
among the various auxiliaries.
It was decided at this meeting to
hold a live stock exhibit this fall of
the following lines of stock: Horses,
jacks, mules, cattle, hogs, sheep and
poultry, the date of which was to be
announced later.
A board of managers was elected
consisting of Luke Wiles, R. C. Pol

who will work out the plans. The
association plans to boost the boys
and girls clubs. Prizes on the whole
will be largely of ribbons and admis

When the place for holding the
exhibit was discussed a committee of
Weeping Water business men pre
sented the association with a propo
sition which included the donation
of Dunn's pavilion, lights, water and
free local advertising, lots of good
will and a welcome to our city. This
proposition and the fact of our rail
road facilities and central location
brought forth a motion to hold the
exhibit here which received a unani
mous vote.

Youve been hearing about the astonishing
realism of the New Edison.
Now you ask : "Is this realism so true-that
I feel the same emotions in listening to the
New Edison as I feel in listening .to the
living singer?"
Our answer is put the New Edison to
the test!
Mr. Edison devised his unique Realism
Test for this very purpose. Then he invited
distinguished psychologists to try it out.
Each of the three men got sensations that
were startlingly vivid.

singer standing behind me," said Dr. W.

SCHOOL BOY HAS A
iirtii
! Weeping Water Lad's Ford Plunges!
Off Bridge Lands Safely m
Deep Ditch Eelow.
From Friday's Dally.
Elmer Kintner. one of our junior
high school boys from the country,
will no doubt long remember his ex
perience Monday evening while driv
ing a Ford car south over, the west
bridge. For some reason the car
plunged through the railing on the
bridge and landed right side up some
vwenty feet or more in the creek be
low with the driver still clinging to
(he steering wheel when the car
landed.
The great speculation and wonder
from the large crowd that gathered
it the scene was how the boy could
make the leap in the car so great a
listance. and come out with only a
few minor scratches of so little con
sequence that he assisted in remov
ing the car from the creek and at
tended school next day.
In some way the car turned com
pletely around and was headed back
toward the bridge from whence it
leaped. Some said the car turned
over twice and a half while others
said twice. The driver thought it
turned three times during the de
scent. At any rate it was a miracle
that the boy escaped serious injury
or death.
As to what threw the car through
the railing is not known, whether a
broken radius' or whether the rut
in the bridge between the plank.
The only eye witness. Louie Paulson,

"I felt the presence of a living singer.
The accompaniment seemed by a separate

"The music filled my mind with thoughts

WRITES INTERESTING
LETTER FROM WEST
K. X. Wilson of Gr?at Divide, Col.,
Tells of Conditions in Northwest
ern Portion of That State
From Thursday's Daily.
A very interesting letter on con
ditions prevailing in northwestern
Colorado, has been received here by
Mrs. J. A. Wilson from her son, II.
K. Wilson, who has for several yeais
past been located in that state:
Great Divide. Colo.
April 23, 1920.
Dear Mother:
I've worked hard today, and am
awful tired tonight, but I want to
have a little "chat" with you befcre
I go to bed.
Have put a concrete . platform
around my pump today. Getting
ready to supply summer water for
the stock.
Have I told you that' I bought
some catttle? I've got eight high
grade Guernsey cows and a pure bred
bull. Will try the dairy business
for a while. Iiutter fat 'is 73 cents
per pound, so expect a neat income
this summer.
We've had a long winter, but are
ready for farming now and I never
saw the soil in better condition.
We've had about 3G inches of snow
and its all gone into the ground.
You know just what that means for
us.
Have just finished the house and
will put down a silo this summer.
But I think the land is well worth
the improvement.
I can't keep from thinking of the
change in the country since I came
here. It was October, 1916. The
population of Moffat, Colorado, at
that time was 2.S00. Now it's 9.000.
T
NEBRASKA
We had two neighbors, one C miles,
the other 12 miles. Think of us
now with three neighbors in less
than U mile, (and one of them is
a first class doctor and surgeon).
Land is raising in price too.
Three years ago $S or $10 per acre
was considered a good price. A
place not far from here sold last
week for $11,000, and another for
$7,000, and this land will producp
just as much" wheat, oats, or any
pmall grain, as th3 higher priced
northern land will.
But a few places were filed on for
speculation. These can be had rea
sonable or cheap. Do you know of
anyone interested in this country?
If so, give them my name and ad
dress and I will be glad to answer
any questions, concerning the land,
location, etc.
Uncle Sam surely picked an ideal
home making country when he threw
northwestern Colorado open for
homesteaders. And his land is get
ting scarce, too.
Well mother its almost bed time,
so I will quit for this time. Write
me when you can. I'm expecting
to see you and the boys out her this
summer. Your son,
II. K. Wilson.
