I would lay that I am tlll manu
facturing my well-known Climax Fan
ning Mill and Grader, which cleans
nd grades all kinds of seeds from
' alfalfa ieed to corn. After an ex
perience of over forty yews n mak
ing these mills I think I am lustl
f, d In saying that It has no superior,
if equal, for doing all kinds of work.
Tut .re made of s best material
and are first class In tvery particular.
I have added a bagger to my mill
which delivers the grain from the
mill into sacks without touching the
floor. The mill can be ordered
with or without tagger.

NO BARMAIDS IN MISSOURI
Attorney General Major Saya She Has
Become a Relle Of a More -Degenerate
Time.
Jefferson. City, Sept 18. Attorney
General Major gave ut the following
statement relative to a , ruling made
by Excise Commissioner CaulBeld of
St. Louis relative to employment of,
women In saloons:
"My attention was called to th rul
ing made by Excise Commissioner
CanlfleH some time ago that the wife
daughler, mother or sister of a saloon
kner mav assist him in serving
drinks to his customers and perform
all other such acts as a regular, Bar
keeper does, perhaps, and that " the
same would not be a violation of the
law. In this matter I think the com
missioner Is wrong. No doubt he
made the ruling before he was aware
that the recent legislature enacted a
new law upon the aubject preventing
the wife, daughter, mother or sister
from being employed in and about the
business.
"In the march and progress of the
age, In the civilisation of to-day and
under our laws, the barmaid baa be
come a relic. She is but a memory
from a more degenerate time, entitled
to live only In the fiction of 'Dead
Man's Gulch.' The womanhood of the
country must not be held so cheaply.
It must be placed above politics and
the lure of gain."

TOO MUCH MONEY FORTHE BOY
IN KANSAS IT HAS INTERFERRED
WITH HIS STUDIES. ,
Chancellor Strong of the University ol
Ksnsas Has Found It Necessary
to Combat the,. Evil.
Lawrence, Kan, Sept. 17. 6ver
flowing granaries and bulging banks
have brought a new danger to the
University of Kansas. Chancellor
Frank Strong pointed out the pitfall.
The university Is determined to offset
the result of too much prosperity.
"So much money has been made In
this western country In the last ten
years," Chancellor Strong said, "and
the boy has been furnished so much
of it, that he has desired to live pret
ty well, and some of them have craved
and have had motor cars. All of this
has a tendency to distract attention
from study, and we have bad some
hard work to combat the tendency.
"We have, however, been pretty suc
cessful. There Is more serious life at
the university now than there has
been for a long time, and the students
themselves understand the need for
conservatism. We are bringing It
about by the pressure of the univer
sity authorities on all the social
groups of the university, urging them
tr iaa axtravaeanoe and more at
tention to college work. The univer
sity Is purely a democratic institution,
and the democratic Influences there
are stronger, now than they have ever
been before." . ' . -n
Chancellor Strong said he expected
the enrollment this year to reach 8,400
the largest In the history of the uni
versity. Last year the enrollment was
1,210, a record.

"The price of beef during the conv
ing winter will Increase to a point now
unheard of," said Judge Cowan, "for
the demand Is much greater than the
supply. Unusually high prices will al
so be asked for other meats as re
flecting the lrve stock shortage. Last

In their entirety the last testament
nf n w. Harrlman. make his widow
Mary Averell Harriman, one of the
wealthiest women In the worm, u is
norhana the briefest will on record
for the disposal of an estate of such
magnitude. All his property is leu
to Mrs. Harriman,.
Wall atreet estimates that Mrs.
Harriman will Inherit In realty and
personal property between $75,000,000
anri tmaaoo.000. - Mr. Harrlman's
private fortune Is supposed to have
been greater than this by many mn
linna but there is reason to believe
that his unmarried daughters Mary
and Carol, his married daughter, Mrs.
Robert Llvlnastone Gerry, and his
two sonSj William Averell and Roland,
a boy of 14, together with his surviv
ing sister, Mrs. Simons, and other re
latives have all been substantially pro
vided for in gifts out of hand and
trust funds set aside by Mr. Harri
man during his life time.
The will is dated June 8, 1903 and Is
witnessed by Charles A. Peabody,
president of the Mutual Life Insurance
company, who- drew it, and C. C.
Tegethoff. ,
Ur, TTarrlman was Miss Mary
Averell, daughter of W. J. Averell, a
wealthy banker of Rochester, N. Y,
who made his money In the Rome,
Watertown and Ogdensburg Railroad
company. She brought her husband
financial aid in his early struggles In
the market, when aid waa most valua
ble to him. He never needed It again,
for his administrative ability s Oon
mi nlm tha auDDOrt of Kuhn. Loeb ft
Co, the National City bank, and the
powerful Standard Oil clique. Tneir
aa veara of married life Mr. Harri
man was married In. 1873 it has al
ways been said were Ideally happy,
fin, Mra Harrlman's shoulders will
now rest the management of the 43,-
000 acres 'of woodland, pasture lanu
and fertile black bottoms In the Ram
apo valley and on the steep sides
of Tower Hill; the completion of the
great house on which Its master had
already lavished $2,000,000 without liv
ing to see It finished; and those plans
of public benefaction parks and
forest reservations which It Is known
that Mr. Harriman cherished, though
he makes no mention of them in his'
will. If the estate measures up to
expectation Mrs. Harriman according
to common estimate here, is the
wealthiest woman In the world. Mrs.
Hetty Green's holding have been esti
mated at $40,000,000, those of Mrs.
Frederick Courtland Penfleld, who waa
Anne Welghtman of Philadelphia at
$80,000,000 and those of Mrs. Russell
Sage at a like amount.'
