Beware of Fakers! A letter has just been received from the County Agent at Emporia saying that a so called livestock improvement association is operating in Lyon County and this section of Kansas. The organizers are not stock men, but promoters. Their game is to sell bred sows to farmers at $150 each, and then agree to buy back part of gilts. But the contract which they give the farmer holds water like a fish net. In spi-e of numerous exposures made by news papers, especially the Daily Drovers Telegram of Kansas City, the State Agricultural College, and- numerous bankers, many farmers in Eastern Kansas have lost hundreds of dollars in the scheme.

The members who have been in the office during the past week are: Oscar Hellman, E. G. Burt, U. S. Brown, W.
