KANSAS'S BIG WHEAT CROP.
Largest in Her History.
Topeka, Juno 10. ? Kansas has
completed plans for the reception
of the great army of harvesters who
will come here from Oklahoma at
the wane of the season which begins
in the territory today. This
year Kansas has the largest wheat
crop in her history and the farmers
have sent oftt appeals to eastern
college students to come here and
help them harvest their great crop,
hast year the best harvesters came
from New York and New England.
The farmers say these young men
come to Kansas to develop their
muscle. They xwant to show the
western hoys how to work. They
simply will not he oudonc, and for
this reason make the l>est harvest
hands. Kansas needs about 40,000
extra men to work this season.
Starting with the Oklahoma harvest,
the laborers who come from the
East will follow the ripening fields
of Kansas, then journeying to Nehrask,
where their work will finish
about July 25. The wages are 82
to 82.50 per day with board. Although
some have predicted that
the harvest this year will he 100,(X)0,(KX)
bushels, conservative farmers
who have watched conditions in
former years say that the total yield
will not exceed 7.~>,(KM),(XK) bushels.
Crockett and the Mules.
When Dauy Crockett sat in the
national legislature as a representative
of the state of Texas he had
many clashes with men of more
education but less wit than himself.
It is told of him that one day while
standing in front of his hotel on
Pennsylvania avenue a swarm of
mules trotted by under the custody
of an overseer from one of the stock
farms in Virginia. A congressman
from Boston, who was standing near
by, attracted Crockett's attention
to the unusual sight, saying:
"Hello there, Crockett; here's a
lot of your constituents on parade.
Where are they going?"
The celebrated hunter looked at
the animals with a quizzical glance,
and then turning to the other said
quietly, but with great emphasis,
"They are going to Massachusetts
to teach school!" ? Harper's Weekly

Barn Burned.
Last Sunday night between 8 and
!) o'clock the barn on Mr. Robert
Sartor's place was burned. When
first discovered the blaze was in the
; fodder loft. Mr. Harvey, the
nearest neighbor, was about the
first to see the fire and get to the
barn. The four mules were taken
out and nothing was burned but
the barn and fodder. Mr. C. C.
| Sartor is living on this place and
lie is the loser of the fodder, and
was lucky to get his mules out safely.
The origin of the fire is unaccounted
for. It was very fortunate that the
fire commenced so early in the
night, otherwise the mules would
have been burned to death.
Voting for Queen of the floral
festival.
At the opening of the polls for
the voting for queen of the floral
festival quite a number of the young
ladies and girls received votes, hut
many by request were dropped out
of the contest. The day of the
closing of the polls Miss Annie
Rodger, Miss Cornelia Greer, Miss
Medora Duncan of the city, Miss
Mildred Lindsay, of Joncsvillc,
Misses Kate Sartor and Daisy Jeter
of Santuc and Miss i/ouisc Drowning
of Sedalia had all received quite
a flattering vote. When the final
count was made Monday night
Miss Medora Duncan led with the
handsome vote of 14,000, next Miss
Annie Rodger 2,000. This was
quite a lively and exciting contest
in which unusual interest was manifested
and increased the floral festival
fund to a very satisfactory
amount.
Tuesday night at the Baldwin
band park quite a large crowd gathered
to hear a temperance lecture
by Rev. Hickson, of (JafTney. It
was learned late in the afternoon
that Mr. Hickson was sick and
would not he here. The crowd was
disappointed not to hear Mr. Hickson
but were very well paid for the
trouble of going out, by sonic able
addresses on the subject of temperance
and voting out the dispensary,
delivered by Rev. D. M. McLeod
and Rev. L. M. Rico.

and two plows out of the four made
50 bales, leaving 2-4 4-10 for the
other two. Mr. Littlejohn's farm
has Ik'cu brought up in the last few
years from a three-horse farm to
the present one.

A Wonderful Saving.

other paint. Saved about $HiO.OO, and
also got a big donatio n of L. & M.

their customers call for it, and say
they used it 12, 14 and even 30 years
ago.

oil, which you do in ready-for-use
paint.
