Dear Sir-My little son, aged about

with violent cough, that lasted till
within about a month since, for the
cure of which 1 am indebted to you
and your valuable Expectorant. l
had tried most every kind of medicine
recommended for coughs, but none
did any good until I tried your Ex-

moved the cough entirely. With
many thanks for your valuable prepa-

couRtry-would never raise a surplus.
1t would do for stock raising, etc., but
grain raising could not be carried on
extensively. Their idea was that good
crops could not be relied upon. How
is it now? This year you hear them
complaining because prices are low,
and there is no market. The fact is,
there is large surplus of grain in the
country. The farmers themselves
conld do much toward strengthening
and creating market, If they would
try in the right direction. They must
feed more grain, as the farmers do in
other States. At present the farmers
consume but very little of their own
grain. If they would convert it into
beef and pork they would have more
strings to pull on than they now have.
-FRUIr RAIsING.-A great change
is also going on in the matter of fruit
raising. True, there are not enough
in the land. But few farm
ers, comparatively, raise their own
fruit. Peaches are becoming plenty,
and many argue that they are so album
dant that it will no longer pay to set
put peach trees. This season good
peaches have sold as low as twenty
cents a bushel at the orchard. But
never mind. People are learning how
to use them. 1t will pay yet to set
put large quantities of good varieties
Of peach trees. So long as our gro
GERS display long shelves of canned
peaches put up in Baltimore and other |
eastern cities. it will do to plant trees
m Kansas. But az any rate it is safe
% plant apples and pears. We know
'ne farmer-Wm. Grimsley, of Allen |
will make about as mnch |
money from his apple orchard this |
rear as many an other farmer will |
make from his entire farm. A good |
many pretty fair sized orchards are

FOREST TREEs.-One thing the far
ners could and ought to do toward |
conforming the country into the APP
oearance of an cid and busincss-like |
and that is to plant shade |
rees along the borders of their farms.
LAST fall, in visiting Illinois we pass

ode in a wagon for hours without see

ire miles in length, skirted on each

They make the co untry look inviting,

Every farmer would some day derive |

Ar OLD TRIcKs.-The Emporia
NEWS, of last week, takes pleasure in
noticing that man of that city had
his pockets picked In this place re-
Gently. 1t doesn't say whether he was
drunk or sober at the time, or with
what kind of company, and he might
have received the same kind of treat
ment in that city. 1t is apparently q
matter of much relief and satisfaction
to that paper as well as some others to
make such notices without explana-
ton, and to SANDER Newton as often
and as much as occasion will permit.
Newton kansan.
We assure the Kansan it is mistaken,
We did not take pleasure in noticing
the matter. We merely mentioned the
fact as news item. And we furthei
inform the Kansan that the gentleman
was one of our most respected citizens
and that he was as sober as judge
that is his normal condition. i
is fact, Mr.. kansan, and there is nC
use of your displaying so much ''vir
tuous Indignation" Such accidents
are liable to happen and do happen il
the best regulated towns, and we dom
suppose Newton is great deal abov'
the average in all the virtues of hu
manity. The itom was given merei!
as we give other personal and new
items, and was in no wise intended t
reflect on Newton. Don't be :
touchy., II looks bad.

CoB AESC8s
CT. Conk lin has half q million soft
naples growing upon his farm south
of town, besides good sprinkling OF
other kinds of trees. All these he is
intending to keep for his own use and
he is also gath ering seed now from the
ash and planting it. Mr. Conklin sold
large lot of young maple trees last
spring, to the farmers in this vicinity,
and we hare lately noticed some fine
rows of them upon the farms OF Mr..
Bamesberger and Mr.. Gimble. The
trees nearly all lived, and have made
an excellent growth this year. Mr..
Conklin deserves the thanks OF the
people for doing more in the way of
tree planting than any other individ-
ual in this vicinity.
Mr.. o. Lambert has gone to Indi-
ana, having been summoned there by
the extreme illness of his father.
Lafayette James undertook to
drive his mammoth hog to the Lyon

overcome by the heat and died on the

The use of Leis' condition powder is
every day on the increase. They are
known to be far superior to all others
now in use, for the diseases which
they are recommended. Besides, they
are known to be Kansas discovery,
and adapted to this climate. The
numerous testimonials from Promi-

extensive establishment for preparing
and getting them ready for market is
sufficient evidence that they are an
