DOUBLED THEIR TROUBLE.
-Yet-JeeiFe Neighbore --Thougb .IThey
Had. Made a qoo4 Beqrian.
The shiftless in dr' of ' wdrthiess
*ld horse. Joel Turner, had been in the,
habit of' feeding the' animal from the'
cribs of his more enterprising neigh-I
bore until the patience of his victims
was completely exhIausted. They had
caught him in the act of helping him
self to corn a number of times, and so
there was plenty of evidence to con
vict him, but on account of his family
and his vindictive disposition..no one
wanted to prosecute him.
One day, when Joel's neighbors were
discussing the situation, some one sug
gested that it would be an act of
mercy-which would also solve their
problem-if they bought the old horse
and put it out of its misery.
This suggestion the conference
adopted. They subscribed a purse of
$10 and sent a committee of one to buy
the horse.
)sere the plan was threatened with
failure. The committee reported that
Joel did not want to sell.
After a few days Jesse Winfeld.
who thought himself something of .a
diplomat, undertook to negotiate the
sale and to his surprise found .Joel not
only willing but anxious to sell the
horse.
"That." said .esse in a congratula
tory tone. as he handed over the $10.
"was a good deal for you. You'll get
lots mnore good out of the $10 than you
would out of the old horse."
"That's right." assented .ioel. "I
know where I can buy a team for
$10. "-Yout b's Conpanion.

VALUE OF FETERITA.
Good Crop to Grow Where There Are
Long Spells of Dry Weather.
I"eterita has demonstrated its worth
as a dry weather crop and will become
an Ituportant factor in Kansas agri
culture. It is not adapted to cold, wet
weather and consequently is not rec
omiended for growth in the eastern
third of the state.
"h"eterita Is an exceptionally good
crop for western KIansas, but in east
ern Kansas the regular black hulled

colors in wood tinish and wall paper
has wrecked homes which would have
been happy had the colors been bright,
Is the opinion of this expert.
"Dark colors in home decoration are
like dark. gloomy days In their effect
on Ipeople." ie said. "It is well known
that gloomy days are emnmonly known
to the police as 'suicide diys.' There
are many more suicides, murders and
other crimes on rainy days. A man
owes it to his family to surround It
with bright rooms which will catch all
the sunlight there is and turn it into
domestic happiness.
"A room done in dark colors has the
same effect on persons entering it as
utter darkness. One's senses cannot be
