If the dear old Register wants to be fair, why did it not publish the whole truth and let the votersyknow the facts instead of trying to misrepresent the facts and deceive the people of this County? Who is it that is trying to carry on an honest, straightforward campaign and deceive no one, the Register or myself? Mr. Register man, do you think that your trying to deceive the people and misrepresent the plain truth will meet with favor among the honest people of this county and make votes for your I have made a straightforward, honorable campaign and I have nothing to say against my opponent, but I believe that with the experience I have had as sheriff I can render better service to the people of this county than one who has had no experience at all. All I ask is that the voters of this county inquire into the fitness and qualifications of my opponent and myself and ascertain if possible which they think would make the better sheriff and then vote according to their best judgment. If I am elected at the November election, I have but one promise to make and that is, that I shall endeavor to the utmost of my ability to enforce all the laws and treat friends and foe alike whether he be black or whether he be white. Yours very truly, J.

The annual loss to the alfalfa growers of Kansas caused by the pocket gopher is estimated by the State Board of Agriculture at 10 per cent of the crop or 505,718 tons or hay, valued at more than Five Million Dollars in 1915, due to the increased value of the hay, thi3 loss has been greater since that time. All farmers should realize the extent of the loss they are suffering each year.

A campaign to kill the gopher should be made at the same time in each community to get the best results. Individual efforts are ineffectual. The time to poison the gopher is limited to the 30 day period extending approximately from October 15 to November 15, depending on the season. The time set for Johnson counts-is from November 6 to November 15. The County Agent will have a supply of poison syrup to be distributed in different communities.
