Progress of the Times.
With the usual up-to-date
methods of the Missouri. Kansas
& Texas Railway (the Katy way)
a new train has been inaugurated
between Dallas and Shreveport.
This train leayes daily at 9:00 p.
m,, airiving at Shreveport next
morning1 at 6:00 a. m. making
connection with the V. S. & P.
railroad for all points in the South-
east; returning leaving S'treve rt
at 11:00 p. m. arriuing in Dallas
8:00 a. m. The train cousists of
standard pullman sleepers and
chair cars. The demands for bet
ter service between these two im
portant cities has been so ureal
that notwithstanding the enormous
expense of this train, the ''Katy"
has decidfed to make it a perma-
nent one.
Commencing Sunday, Septem-
ber 21st, the change of time via
M. K. & T. railroad in Texas has
given this line the quickest time
between Texas and. Memphis via
South McAiester. The time of
the morning train from Texas
known as train No, 2, has been
considerably shortened in order to
make connections with the fast
tram of the Choctaw, Oklahoma &
Gulf railroad at South McAiester,
which arrives in Memphis at 7:30
a. m. and have thus shortened the
time between^ Texas and Memphis
one hour.
The Denison: The finest and
best hotel in the Southwest now
open. Twenty-five rooms with
private bath. Under manage-
ment of the "Katy."

Advertising is a good thing for a
business, but it might be mad-
far better than it is. Tne one who
accepts the idea that advertising is
as good as it can be made will
probably be contented to let it get
worse and worse. The man who
is never satisfied but who is al-
ways striving for perfeciinn will
find the results from his advertis-
ing improving and his space pay-
ing him better and better. Its in-
creased value to the firm is its
greater strngth. No advertiser
can afford to neglect the substance
he presents in his space any more
than he can afford to neglfct his
stock when he goes to market.

At almost evvr\ tr u .:rnsV>ing
in every city or town that makes
any pretentions to being modern,
one sees trash cans or bins, made
for depositing trash ^and city re-
fuse, with this injunction printed
upon them: "Help keep the city
clean and be a public benefactor".
The fact that disease germs are
fostered and breed in places where
filth is allowed to collect and re-
mam mdifinitely has become so
apparent in the cities that there is
no excuse for the most ignorant
in other things not to be aware of
this fact. The truth is that if one
who professes ignorance of these
conditions, permits his premises
to become filthy to such an extent
as to cause the health of his
neighbors to be endangered, it is
not long before he is waited upon
by a blue-coated defender of the
law and his ignorance of the law
is dispelled at once by a peremp-
tory command to clean up his
premises at once or the city will
do it for him at his expense, with
costs added for having put the
city to so much trouble. This is
done in order to preserve the
health of the community, and is
all good as far as it goes, but it
does not go tar enough. The
manner of disposing of this filth
oftentimes! only tends to transfer
the disease germs from one section
to another, more often being
dumped into some field, just be-
tween the town and country.
The cities doing, as it were, all in
their power to throw their filth at
the farmers and meet them with it
on their way to town. At other
times the sewerage systems
of the cities are called into re-
quisition to carry the filth find re
fuse, excretion and^closet deposits
to the river and on down to the
next city. . Water may be bene-
ficial in removing filth from one
article to another, tut' 't is wholly
i<u dequate to de-troy tie atom of
riiih, and so it e m u > togotlu
rounds, finding lodgement where
ever an obstacle presents itself,
and thus disease is perpetuated.
Since disease is more infectious
than good health, it behooves the
eit zens of every cminui iiy t. do
everything lta their powei to see
to it that, instead of trash and
filth being transferred, it shall be
completely destroyed.
Every " town in the country
should have a crematory for the
purpose of consuming the filth
that may collect in their vicinity,
and it would be equally beneficial
for every farm to have a small
crematory for the same purpose,
as the health of the rural popu-
lation is as of much interest to the
public as is the health of those
who live in the cities.
And right here is food for
thought. Few farmers realize
the importance of keeping their
farms clean. The waste that is
permitted to go on from year to
year in the barnyard manure pile
is only one side of this question,
as it ;s necessary to the health of
the family that this refuse be re-
moved and returned to the soil,
as it will piove beneficial to the
soil'to have this plant food re
turned to it. To let the barn-
yard manure grow from one year
to another with no thought of the
welfare of the soil the farmer is
tilling is bad enough but when
yor. add to it the danger it is to
the family's health* thji neglect is
a folly for which the offender will
some-day have to render an ac
count. Therefore the barnyart
ma nine piie should, be remoyeit
with regularity and returned to
the soil from which it came.
From fny travels thronh Texas,
Indian Territory, Oklahoma and
Kansas, I should judge* that hut
few farmers have Iearue-l.the ne-
cessity of keeping 'own t!>e weed
pnrley for hyg * '«' purposes, as
u,;i y of them make .; nipt I
i. destroy w x e when
t; y interfere ^ it. rowing
Our f <y d '
on a farm, ver> y ; J r>* the
weed seeds had h lime io maluie,
was to take a scythe and follow
the old rail fences and cut evtiy
thing that bore the semblance of a
weed; and then along the water
ways and there cut out all rushes
and harmful vegetation. This is
a lesson that some of the' farmers
of Texas are learning, and as I see
it, it will not be long until the
renter who does not take the prop-
er care of the land in this man-
ner, will have to go without land
to cultivate, or else improve on
bis methods or move further west
where the people haven't become
so all-fired particular about pre-
serving the health of the com-
munity,
Another article on the farm that
comes in for its share of consider-
ation .in keeping the farm clean is
that of good, pure water for
drinking and cooking purposes.
No family should expect to re-
tain their health if they are unable
to secure pure water, as pure
water is one of the mainstays of
life. For this reason J,be family
well should never be a surface
water well, and should be far
enough from the barn, hen-house
and hog pen to preclude the pos-
sibility of the water becoming
contaminated with the filth from
these sources. And the fact that
the well is at a higher elevation
than these places of filth deposit
does not prove sufficient to pre-
vent the water becoming contami-
nated, as water will partake of
the impurities in the air that pas
ses over it. Therefore keep the
closets, the hen-houses, the slop
barrels, hog pens and barn yards
far enough away from the family
well to afford opportunity for
the filth that may be taken up in
the atmosphere to be so scattered
so as to reduce to a minimum the
chances of the water * becoming
contaminated. The most sucessful
method of treating bad water is
by boiling, but would prefer both
filter and boiling, as filtering re-
moves any foreign substance and
boiling destroys any disease germ
that may pass through the fiilter.
When after all these precautions
have been taken, disease visits the
stock or poultry, then the dis-
eased animal should be isolated,
and in case of death, cremated, in
order to destroy the germs of the
disease that caused the death.
Our forefathers were tHiight. to
lock upon the buzzard as beiny
capable of taking care of his con-
ingency, but recent development
indicate that not only is. the buz-
zard incapable of serving the far-
mer and stock man in this cu| a-
city, but that this caruivrroite
bird actually spreads disease and
instead of being a friend is an en-
emy to the stock raisers. Some
farmers have been so long taught
to look upon the buzzard as theii
friend that it will be next to im-
possible to convince them other
wiso. But as the buzzard is a
filthy bird, and as he does not de
stroy disease germs, this means of
spreading tilth is doomed to go
along with the other trash that
proves deterimental to the rural
population. As fire is the only
tbiqg that will destroy disease
ger^ns and purify the air, it stands
to reason that there is no further
use for the buzzard, for when
every old carcass is destroyed by
fire as it should be there will-be
nothing left lor the buzzard to
to feed upon. By all means keep
the farm clean, and let this means
of distributing filth go with the
rest of the unsayory mess.—M. C
Scott in Farm and Ranch.
Matrimonial Advice,
Mason City (la.) Times: If any
of the Mason City boys ever come
across a girl, who, with a face full
of roses, says, as you come to the
door: "1 can't go for thirty minu
tfrs for the dishes are not washed,"
you wait for that girl. You sit
right down on the door step and
wait for, her. 'Cause some other
fellow might come along and carry
her off, and right there you have
lost an angel. Wait for that girl
and then stick to her like a burr to
a mule's tail.
To the above the Charles City
(Iowa) Press adds: . ' -
And if you should happen to be
that girl who went to the door
after taking your hands out of the
dish water, just ask him while he
is waiting, "if he would pleatrts"cut
you some woo,d so pa wouldn't
have to do it whenfhe comes home
tired from business," or ' would
lie mind bringing you a pail of
water from a .well a block distant?
If be jerks off his coat in a hurry
and tills thai wood box iu ten min-
utes ami the pail of water in its
place in the kitchen without slop-
ping half of it over you? nice cleau
oil1 cloth, then say to fhat young
man, "I will be at home next
\\ eduesday evening, if you would
like to walk to prayer meeting with
me," and if he looks delighted,
and says, "X should be so pleas-
ed," instead of "1 am sorry I have
an engagement to play pool or ten
pins that evening"—then do you
with your pretty ways entice and
encourage him to come oftsn to
your home, then after considera-
tion make up your mind whether
pou will take to that "burr to a
mule's tail."
