8ERRY WILUS COOPER WRITES LETTER HOME

Tells Some of His experiences and Gives Description of Lively Western Life.

"Dear People—So far I am perfectly happy the trip was good, and I like the farm. It is quite different from anything I have ever done. It takes four men two hours twice a day to do the regular feeding. "Now for the trip. I reached St. Louis at 6:15 looked about a little, went to the Olympic theater (it is not as nice as the Murat), the play was only fair and I retired to my sleeper after the second act slept well. It was a good train—reached Kansas City and found theY M. G. A. building. Secured a mighty nice room and after washing off trainmarks went out sight-seeing. "Kansas City is the hardest place to keep straight in (directions, I mean). On the way out to the stockyards we turned so many corners, went up and down steep hills, traveled part of the time on the ground level, part of the time about thirty feet above it, and sometimes below it. There are so many steep hills that many times a cross section of two blocks presents a Vshaped surface, with an angle of not much more than 100 degrees. There is a street in the bottom of the V, and one on each side, and in some places the street oar bridges cross from the side streets. I could at one place look at the street and then from another angle would scarcely recognize it. I could hardly tell which side of the river I was on, there are so many bridges. So much for the city and its perversities. "I found the stock exchange building, and upon entering, real-

ized fully that I was in the West. The place fairly teems with the spirit of the romantic western life. It is the busiest place I ever saw. Stockmen swarm through the halls carrying either whips or canes and wearing tall felt hats many of

-S them in black or tan riding boots with spurs jingling on the floor as they walk. Some of them would answer admirably to the descrip"4 tion of the hero in the last western story I read but they are not cowpunchers. They were buying and selling stock in large bunches—and talked together in small groups in the halls and offices. Occasionally one of them would go out at the back entrance, mount his pony and ride off down the lanes between the pens of the stockyards, which are at the rear and sides of the exchange building, to look at the bunch in Pen No. 109 or 876, etc.

There is an enormous amount of .business transacted in the building but much of it is done in the dashing and apparently reckless manner of stockmen. Then I went all over the stockyards. Saw them

fe drive off bunches of hogs and sheep to the packing house. Saw bunches of fine fat steers and some pretty •. scrubby looking ones. Saw one pen if of bulls, in which only one of the bunch, a rangy looking Hereford, had horns and was boss of the bunch. One of the number, -which 3^.,. had evidently contested the Here-

Wf -ford's rights, was cowering in the ~farthest corner slashed all over and i" bleeding. I visited the big mule 'v' barns. Went through Swift's packing house—but that's an old story ,, How the steers are knocked in the y- head and finally hung up in the 'cooling room the hogs aild sheep I picked up on a wheel and carried along a track to the man who sticks them, and finally are put up to "^'"v'^l^be frozen. I had hoped to see what

doing at the new Union Station but the builders' protests keep all ^visitors somewhat at a distance. "From there I rambled about and ^v/^along a fine auto boulevard, o,ut "^\past the City Hospital and finally ^'^back to my room. We had a good ^"V|trip to Hutchinson, through some mighty fine land along the Kansas

River. Robert Bacon met me and ^'-•twe lodged at the Y. M. C. A. We

Heed the Cough That Hangs On The seeds of consumption maybe the cause, and a cough that hangs on weakens the system. Foley's Honey and Tar Compound checks the cough, heals the inflamed membranes and strengthens the lungs. E. D. Rountree, Stillmore, Ga., says: "Lagrippe left me a deep-seated, hacking, painful cough which Foley's Honey and Tar Compound completely cured." M. C. Quig!ey.

Miss Hollis was the daughter of James and Mary E. Hollis, and up until a short time ago lived with her mother at the home on Swope street. Miss Hollis was very much attached to her school work, being compelled to quit school on account of her ill health.

She was loved by her many friends and schoolmates," who will greatly miss her presence among them. Besides a devoted father and mother, she leaves an uncle and aunt and a host of othe.r relatives and friends who mourn hor departure.

The funeral occurred Wednesday at 2 p. m., at the M. P. church in this city, Rev. C. J. Kerlin officiating. Interment at Park cemetery. Lynam & Co., undertakers.

Grape Vines Easily Trained. The grape vine is the most accommodating plant that grows, and can be trained in any shape and anywhere you want it. If there is a vacancy in the row you can fill up gaps by laying young canes that have grown from the root of the vine. Or tie a young cane up to the wire to take* the place of the vine, and bend the old one down into a trench six inches deep and carry it along as far as it will go. Anchor the vine with sods or earth and add more from time to time when needed and thus continue until the vines are woven together like a wire fence.

There is no need of vacancies in rows on account of the lack of soil to support the vines in a particular place. If the old vine has grown wild for years along the yard or arbor, it may be layered in trenches and the young canes will spring up and can be staked where wanted and where there is plenty of room and conveniently arranged for getting fruit from them.

More Rugs Than Usual The State Entomologist warns people to expect more bugs, moths, and worms this year than perhaps ever before. The mild winter- is responsible, since many insects survived which are usually killed by the cold weather. The green aphis is already in action on fruit tree buds, and these later will be carried everywhere by the ants, as soon as they are able to be out. Kerosene emulsion is a remedy, but care must be taken not to get it too strong.

Mrs. Margaret Butler, of Walnut street, is spending a few days with her son, Levi, at Carthage.

Guy Sutton and family have moved from Blue River township to Meek street, in this city.

E. A. Parish of this city, has purchased a new Ford automobile.
