The defense hopes to prove that Miss story will flot reconcile with jthe hole in the car window. Mr. Sheppard's request, for an order for the Hall coupe precipitated a clash.

Fort Scott smokers and especially those who smoke a fine grade of cigars are again to feel the slap of "the high cost of smoking."

The Fort Scott dairy district comprises a four or five counties contiguous Bourbon county. All of the one hundred and fifty men. who recently went on the dairy train trip to Iowa, Illinois and Wisconsin will, agree that this district has not only a market equal to any in those intensified dairy communities, but that we have a distinct advantage In the matter of raising dairy, feeds, as well as In the climate, giving, us longer seasons and healthier cows. No one of the men who had the. opportunity to make the observations and the comparison which the dairy train afforded will dissent to the proposal that dairying alone has made parts of Iowa, and Illinois and Wisconsin immensely wealthy, both in cash on hand and farm In the.
