gave justice.

Traver Troubles
11 miles east of Huaroton.
Well, the glorious B'ourth has pas
sed. and. as far as we know, without
any casualities. We t rust that every.
one felt patriotic and gave the good
Lord thanks because we have such a
good country to lite in. Even though
It is dry, we have such hne nights to
sleep In, so we awaken refreshed for
another clay's work. Did you ever
think about our living one day at
time?
A number of relatives gathered at
the Traver home to eat ice cream on
the Fourth. The guests were: L,
W. Parker and wife, L. S. Parker and
wife and I). II. Heath and wife.
These gatherings are not as frequent
as they ought to be. In the early
days the social gatherings of neigtt
bors were common; and we seemed to
get along as well then as we do now
when we can scarcely find time to go
to a neighbor's house on an errand.
A number from the Traver settle
ment went to Hugoton to celebrate
the Fourth.
We had a nice rain the evening of
the third.
Mr. Weaden who went to Arkansas
about a year ago writes back that
not only Is it very drv there, but the
nights are so sultry that they cannot
get much rest or sleep. He says we
ought to be thankful that we have
such nights out here.
What a pity that the hum of the
cream separator is not heard in more
homes. For from that source there
is a steady income, and It Is sure.
The tornado season is here. Do
not co without insuranbe. See us
for particulars.

T. A. McNeal. in the current
number of the Farmers Mail and
Breeze gives a little free advice
about western Kansas. He don't
picture the prospects any too flat
tering but just about hits the nail
on the head. He sizes it up in
part about this way:
It is better to be a land holder
but in western Kansas than a rent
er on high-priced lands ' back in
eastern Kansas or over in Mis
souri. It is quite likely that he
can 6nd land that will grow alfalfa
and if so he will ,have the world by
the narrative with a down hill
pull.
He will not rest on a bed of
roses all the time but the young
fellow who can't stand some hard
ships lor the sake of getting ahead
and having a home that he can call
his own, has not the right sort of
grit in his frame and' probably
won't make much of a success of
