OCTOBER 16,191S Gating New Subscribers „Laid week we sent out sample cop - of The Empire containing thu :announcement of \The Island of tie our new serial story Wnieli ls to appear soon, and as a result a :few more nametf - have been added et our si*scription list. ,One 1 uew subscriber wrote as 101 'lows: \Received a copy of yorn i sigiper last week and am enclosing tin .bihnitform signed up for a year't )itibscription, beginning with thit . ,witek's issue. , While I am just ft 'r,Ocent arrival in the Judith Bash,i, And know but few people here I think the best way to become acquainted it - 141 read your paper and it won't h. until I become familiar wit! -,names and then when I meet nee „people I'll have heard, or rather read, something about them and will knee who they are. The stories you ex- .„ ; pea to run will also conic hi very „nice this winter as my wife and iny• eelf both enjoy that kind of reading. 4ust as soon as 1 become better ay- .,e,uainted with my neighbors I may send in some notes occasionally from ..,t f his vicinity—if you care to havt . them—as I used to do considerabli Of this before coming west. Expect to 134! in Moore withili the lest weep st which time I shall !rop ib and liky • my subscription.' ' Others, too, have added their names And we hope to have several more before next Thursday, when the opts:- .,Ing chapters of \The Island of the - Stairs\ will be published. The sug- gestion offered by the above subseril.- er that the way for a new settler . become acquainted is to take the in ,:eal paper, is a goodeme: New people .coming in are apt to say, \I don't know anyone here, why should I take the paper?\ but if that is the way : ,,they feel the chances are good for then, never knowing many people. Asi.'.e ; Prom the local news we have many . other things of interest. We want The Empire to go into every hone. . in this vicinity so if you are not al- , t reacly a subscriber, won't you let us • put your name on our list? Fanners' Clubs has been said \neighborhood co- , piperation is the surest route not only , a life worth wild( , but to profit- , . able agriculture as well: The x criti. Clam, most commonly heard is that ..,-,farmers will not work together, and for lack of this Cooperation, work :Wider a handicap with all the othet established induskiee.\ The farmers' clubs, of which. many . fire being organized thruout Northwest, are nothing but co-opera- tion in simple things and form the t: 'habit of working in harmony fot handling bigger problems. Such . clubs are partly social and partly ed ucational and serve as mediums foi , rt taking up the particular prohlein 'peculiar to each community. ;• There is much teaching on how tie ,farmer shall make two blades groe ;where but one grew 'and this is well, : but an equallyeimportant problem, which should be coneidered by those ,who wish the farmers well, is to se- cure for him a just price for his prod- , ,..ucts. Some bumper crops • have ' . yielded less money to the producers of this country than some short crops. The Government, recently sent a com- i, - ; mieMon all the wiri to Europe to learn how to better the financial con- dition of the farmer. when half a doz- en capable men in this country could :have .solved the problem in a very ,short time. Fitirmess can hope to overcome the handicap of present marketing eon- ditions only thru co-operation. Plan ,wIth a few of your netghbors, Mr. Farmer, to organize a local farmers -club ,and take np your own local problems and in time the ,movement will grow and much benefit will lit S.Afety In Travellin g The wreck of the \Columbian\ near Ingmar last week is but another instane where the steel coaches have saved many lives.. Had the \Mil- waukee\ still been using the, old wooden coaches practically everyone on the train would have been killed. Heretofore people have had but one thought in starting out on a trip and that was to get to their destina- tion in the quickeet time possible and with the least inconvenience on their part. But fkom now on it is going to be different. When it comes to plan - fling' a trip ther4re• going to choose only the safest roads and will go to some trouble to .get to one. They are not going to risk their lives on poorly. equipped .trains. The rail- road company which takes every pre- caution to protect its passengers, such as providing steel coaches, eti., is deserving of the bulk of the pat- ronage ---and they are going to get it. The Ingomar wreck was the result of a broken brake beam—something entirely unavoidable—and not on account of the poor 'condition of the road -bed as • was at first reported. While many of the passengers were badly skaken up and bruised they can be mighty thankful that the \.eilwaukee\ officials were thought- ful enough of their -safety to eqdip the entire system with all steel coaches, otherwise but few, if any, of them would have been alive to. day. A Good Su ggeskon There is some talk of opening reading and writing room for the con venience Of the farmers who celne to oore-andwe bel ley e- the -C mum ere-ial Club should take this matter up an carry it thru at once. E. 0. Hedrick has offered the free use of the rooms in the rear of the State Bank for such a purpose, while others havc signified their willingness to donate fuel, books, papers, magazines, writ- ipg material, etc. The services of a 'j'anitor would be practically all tiit expense and this would be but a small item. A place of this kin, would brimMie farmers and busines:. men together and might result in a \Farmers' Club\ being organized. By all means let's carry out this suggestion. That's Soon Enou g h Jack Johnson is now a . naturalized citizen of France and says that never again will he come bac!: to Ameriee. Watch for the opening chapters of our new serial story, \The Island of the Stairs.\ Has Been \Abe\ Hummel, who has sold hit; beautifully decorated house in East Seventy-third street, New York, in order to take up his permanent resi- dence in Paris, has become a promi- nent figure in the French, as he was formerly in the American metropolis.. \Hummel gets off as many witti- cisms as ever,\ said a Nev York bro- ker. \I lunched with him at Pail - lard's the other day In Paris. We had a table by a window, and, as we ate our iced Spanish melon, Abdul Aziz -- the ex -sultan, you 1(110w—dashed in a red car out of the Rue de in Chatfriee d'Antin Into the Boulevard des Italiens. \The white -robed Abdul, with three of his young wives, made a not- able figure in the long, red ear, and I cried excitedly to Hummel: \ 'Look, Abe, there goes Abdul Azizl\ \ 'Abdul As -was, you mean,' said Hummel.'• Ex. • SCHOOL NOTES At the senior class elections, the following officers were chosen: Pres., Ralph Hunter; vice-pres., Lowe McFerran; sec'y, Ruby Terry; treas., Ruth Estes.

THE COUNTY FAIR PROBLEM (Continued from page 1) tion, and he is one of the best quali- fied men to be found. I believe, and I have seen evidences all over the basin this -summer, by scattering far- mers besides the splendid example at the station, that it . would be very soon proven, with the addition of aninial husbandry at the station, that the Judith basin, with the qual- ity of her soil for / growing feed, and the climate for growing livestock tlet this could be made the richest mri- cultural section of the United States. That is why I am in favor of the fair sounds at the Judith Basin Ex- periment station. As stated before the buildings necessary for the fair could be used to good advantage for the animal husbandry work. - \I am much interested in the es- tablishment of an annual fair for Fergus county. Think what we could lo with hundreds of men working for a local fair when we make such a showing at the state fair thru the efforts of two or three men.\ To The Public We wish to thank our patrons thru the columns of The Empire for their patronage during the past and, since the change of ownership, hope for a continuance of the same. We will be better equipped than ever to ac- comodate our trade and will endeavor to please every customer. THE MOORE MEAT ArIRKET Wm. J. Abel, Prop.
