Siidi Li) the joints really close in
Wichita what beside his glowing hair
will Vic Murdock do for inspiration.
Tiiosk who know German state that

herd's life. It it. surely bullet proof.
Aooohduiii to Brads traet, 1,000,ouo
industrial workers have had their
wages increased ten per cent within a
month.

that another wholesale closing of

Thk incredulous notwithstanding,

Guthrie will have signs of it in a few
weeks.
Kykn the weather has cataclysms
under this democratic administration.
Like the finances of the country, it is
all extremes.
Tub effect of this national political
edncatiou will be at last that the peo-
ple will need no government. The
politicians had better look out.
Thk man who invented cold storage
for husbands os a solution of domestic
troubles this hot weather has not yet
been able to ' freeze out" the woman.
Thk Kansas City papers in advocat
ing the "good roads" law for Missouri
are encroaching on Coxey and may be
sued for infringement on his patent
howl.
It is saitl that the populist board of
charities of Kansas will enter a plea
of insanity in defense of its brutal
management of the state insane asy
lnm.
Tiik supreme court of Kansas has
given Mrs Lease a"stich in the side" in
deciding against her, but unfortunate
ly could "not take her breath away

Appmri) to the politicians Thomas
Carlyle's aphorism "that speech is
silvern and silence is golden," is prov
ing a failure. Silence has occasionally
a silver lining in money arguments.
It will soon be in fashion to cry
against cheap corn in Oklahoma
account of over production and the
curbstone farmer may just as well be
gin to tune his voice to that pitch.
Tiikkk are some people who object
to the teachers' national convention at
Denver because it will be the untnak
ing of many a teacher. As a wife, she
is expected to change her occupation.
Tiik Indian agents in this territory,
in spite of the hot weather, mistake
this for Siberia. The latest czar act
is Agent Wisdom prohibiting the cut-
ting of hay in the Choctaw country by
white citizens.
Lewis Hokniik< k declined to join
the raid into the Wichita mountains
on the ground that it would be inter
fered with by the military. He ad-
vises the successful expedition of an
English colony.
It may be that the increased travel
to spend the summer in Colorado this
year is due to the fact that Helen
Gould is on her way there. There are
many patriotic citizens who do not de-
sire that the foreign exchange in the
matrimonial market shall be against
this country.
MINERAL IN OKLAHOMA.
The gold And on Boggy Creek may
or may not be a fraud. The general
impression that it is may be as ill
founded as the one telling of the
fabulous wealth of the mines. The
old man who was first found digging
"dirt" on Boggy is still there digging,
seeming fully as confident as at first,
and utterly unaware that he has been
abandoned by that crowd of seekers
after fabulous wealth.
But there is one thing more sure
than gold on Boggy Creek and that is
gold in the Wichita mountains and oil
in the Chickasaw country. There is
another thing quite sure and that is
that that fact, or at least an absolute
belief in it, will bring a great
rush to the opening of tht Kiowa.

This faet has never before been point-
ed out i'. relation to the building of
the Martin road. If it could be built
before the opening of that country the i
rush of people and business there
would immediately make it a paying
line The road runs directly through
the heart of that country and would
carry the direct travel both from the
lines of Kansas City and also on its
other end, Texas. The possibility of
that country opening at any inomeut
makes it urgent that the Martin road
be built. Aside from the fact that it
is one of the most feasible prospective
routes, running through the best re-
gion of country and many towns not
now having a railroad, the fact of the

The editor of the Indiana Farmer
has been looking over the tiles of his
paper issued tifty years ago. He finds
that in 184.1. Rev. Henry Ward Heecher
was its editor aud that the editorials
are written in the gifted tniuister&
peculiar style. The present editor
finds that:
"It is interesting to note how much
attention was paid in that far-gone
day to the very same subjects we are
discussing now. lor example, in the
number for March'.'j, l*!"-. three pages
are devoted to corn culture. In the
article the method <>f one W. C. Young,
of Keutucky, who had made a record
of li>:. bushel per acre, was described.
This wonderful crop was produced in
18-10. His rule, he says, ua.s to plow
his corn laud the fall preceeding. He
cross-plowed as early in the spring as
possible and as deep He checked off
the first way with large plows and th
second with small ones, making the
checks three feet three inches apart.
He planted from the Mth to the *J'.th of
! March— invariable this early—and
! from eight to twelve grains in a hill,
covering the same four to six inches
deep, "greatly preferring the latter
depth." This is quite different from
the modern plan, but the soil was loose
and mellow then Hut he tells us next
that as soon as the corn was up sufli
cient height he started the large har-
row directly over the rows, a horse
walking on each side. A few days
later he ran the small plow with the
bar next the corn. He then thinned
to four stalks in the hill. The second
plowing he turned the moldboard
toward the com. lie plowed but lour
times and burrowed once, lie grew
two crops of corn in succession and
then let the land lie in grass eight
years."
The Indiana editor here remarks
"We used to plow corn just in the
way he describes, when a boy, forty
five years ago first threw the dirt
away from the corn and then back
again, ami we always raised bigerops.
but no one thought of measuring the
yield of an acre.
"Other farmers reported from
ninety-five to 1« 5 bushels per acre
One of them speaks of using u "culti
vator," and did not allow the shovels
to penetrate the ground more than
two or three inches. Some of them
adopted the drill plan, but a large
majority planted in check rows.
Here is the way in which Mr Heecher
touches off the southern planter of
that day. After quoting from an ex-
change ihe plantar'rides in a $<Umi car-
riage for which he is in debt, his
daughter thruai a piano that never
will be paid for, he buys corn which
he could raise at ten cents a bushel
and pays sixty cents for it. after two
and a half per cent advance to his
commission merchant,'etc .Mr. Heech-
er adds: 'He could raise his own hogs,
but he patronizes Cincinnati. Being
the possessor of one staple he fluctu-
ates with the market of that article.
He is "mixed up" in cotton and is a
gambler therein Meanwhile he wants
money and draws on his factor. lie
wants cotton goods and clother for his
plantation that he coula make at home,
lie orders them and feels large. The

the freighter, the drayman, the ware-

commission merchant, all have a fin-
ger in the pic of profits.and the proud,
foolish planter pays them all The

his not "calculating," nor even guess-
ing the difference between farming
and planting. One supports a family;
the other supports pride, until pride

Tiik Kingfisher Free Press is mis-
taken when it says: "The gold bug
representatives at the republican
league convention,which met at Cleve-
land the other day, were in the ma-
jority, yet. they did not dare to meet
ttie issue. It was waived to one side
bj- the point of order that the league
had no business to outline a policy for

The large majority of that meeting
were 'or silver. Every speech made

lars. Not a speech, not a syllable,was
uttered for the single gold standard
It wa> declared by Warner Miller and
all other leaders that a single gold
standard is purely a democratic policy,
ruinous to the country and wholly un-
repnblican. The general feeling was
for the free and unlimited coinage of
ountrie's product and this is the sort
>f a plank which could have been eas-
ily adopted, if not for the constitu-
tional prohibition against the making

Ni w York. July 7. —R. G. Dun & Co.'s
weekly review of trade says: The mid-
summer reports from all commercial
centers are of especial interest, cover-
ing the questions on which the future
of business depends. They indicate
distinctly l etter crop prospects than
the official or commercial accounts, a
marked increase in retail distribution
of products, an active demand for
goods anil a general enlargement of
the working force, with some advance
in the wages of more than 500,000
hands. At the same time they show
the rapid advance in prices has some
what cheeked the buying of a fev
classes of products. In some parts of
the country the outlook for fall trade
is considered bright.
There is a growing re-order demand
for heavyweight woolens, and many
new kinds of lightweights have been
opened with notable irregularities in
prices, some lower and others higher
than last year. Hut the manufacture
is better sustained thus far than ex
peeted, and the feeling is very hopeful
especially us labor troubles have sub-
stantially ended. Prices of cotton
goods also continue to advance, and
the mills are generally well em-
ployod. Speculation has depressed
wheat J cents in spite of estimates Jhat
the yield has been materially reduced
since June 1. Every year the crop re-
ports are having less infiuence, and the
time is ripe for the radical change in
government estimates which the de-
partment proposes. The year closes
with more than 2,000,000 bales of Amer-
ican cotton available here and abroad,
and with nt least 05,000,000 bushels
surplus wheat, nlthough some, make
the quantity 30,000,000 bushels larger.
The crop of oats is certain to be large
and the prospects for corn have great-
ly improved within the last few weeks.
There were £,G50 commercial failures
in the first half of 1895, against 7,039
in the first half of 1894, and rt,401 for
the first half of 1893. These commercial
failures involved liabilities of 988,839,-
914 this year, against $101,739,300 last
year, and 8lf-8,801,440 In 1893.
