Is it auy fairer for a business firm or interprise to qhow us samples of printing sent out by some mail-order printing company, usually a special price aud ask us If we can meet It, than it would be for us to take a mail order catalogue aud tell the ma'fi-that the order house will do so and 86 and ask him what he will do about it? It is fair and legitimate for any person to do this and the merchant will usually try to meet the in his own future patronage. We will be glad to do this in regard to any piece of printing put oUtby printing concern, if ail points are fairly considered. Very seldom have we ever seen printing done by the average mail order.house that we cared to match in point of shab- btness, but seldom either have we seen work offered that we could not duplicate in price and beat a city block in appearance and material. We'll match any reasonable proposition and theu turp around and spend the money at home. Will our merchants and the foreign mail order houses be equally fair? ca Dispatch.

D. L. Morse, proprietor of the above farm, has been giving his best efforts to the improvement and distribution of blooded live stock. Standard Bred horses, Red Poll cattle, Poland China hogs, Scotdh Collie dogs and Pure poultry, are the choice specialties bred on the Morse Stock Farm, at Neosho. that is practical; that produces results, is the kind of stock handled by this well known farm.

We are pleased that this section is no a "One Crop" country, and this is wha is causing the dividing up of the largei farms into smaller homes, which whei properly handled by the more intense modern methods of agriculture, is nmk ing such a profitable garden spot Newton county, Mo. The people -who live on these small are not con tent to eat' our delicious strawberries without cream; neither are they satis fied with butter and no beef, but they demand a combination of the two, as the most profitable way to convert the rough feeds into food and fertilizer The strictly dairy cow is all right in town, and the special beef animal is profitable where large corn cribs can be converted with less labor into juicy meats, cheaper than to produce milk and butter, but the anticipation of the needs of this small truck and fruit farm section wiih its beautiful hill lands and crystal streams has caused the selection of the best of all dual purpose breeds of cattle by the Morse Stock Farm. These Red Foils so well suited by their hardy compact structure to withstand the toil necessary to crop the luxuriant grasses from the rough hill pastures, and con vert it into the very finest quality of milk, butter and beef, are headed by Nailer Boy, No. 17205, who has won at six state fairs. His first four sires weighed over a ton each and' were champions in the best shows for beef class.

His dam won a dairy contest at the Illinois state fair, and his half sister, Liza, No. 26498, won the Red Poll dairy contest two years in succession producing over 10 tons of milk, and 1000 pounds of butter fat in 24 months, and this year was second best cow fife International at Chicago, where hundred Red Poll cattle were shown. The Poland China hog has made good for generations. It is one of the most breeds in the hog world, jong, heavy-boned, of quick growth and very hardy, this hog has always been a money-maker. It is a distinctive breed whose good qualities improve steadily with careful breeding.

They are reared a wood pasture on the Morse Stock form, where they have to matte from )irth, which insures a rugged constitu- ion. Keep-a-Way, No. 60878, a Perfection-bred hog heads he herd.

It is a most congenial part of the country for the profitable raising of chickens. Barred Plymouth Rocks and Rose-Comb Brown Leghorns are the two breeds that have received special attention on the Morse Stock Farm, the former being noted for early broilers, good size and eggs. The latter for eggs, and eggs in winter wneh others are stopped by frozen combs, as their compact combs endure more cold.
