The Farmer has an extensive circuIa-
lation in this vicinity. Colonel Plumb
prompted this visit and to him are the
people of Americas indebted more
than many of them are aware for the
success of the cheese business here this
season. Owing to the bad fortunes
which attended the factory last year,
the month of March had arrived before
any arrangement had been made for
continuing the business this year. On
learning this, and that the institution
was likely 70 go down. leaving those
who had property in cows and utensils
in bad fix, and inflicting great blow
upon the town and country, Colonel
Plumb volunteered to the gentlemen
composing the present company to fur
nish them with the financial aid neees-
sary to carry on the factory, which
was accepted, and the result has been
most gratifying to every one who was
interested in this enterprise. Now the
Americas Cheese Factory Is an estab-
lished institution, and capital stands
ready to back it up to its utmost capac-
ity in manufacturing cheese. This sort
of establishments is what the people of
Kansas need, and the man who,
like Col. Plumb, takes enough interest
in them to lend them substantial aid,
is public benefactor. We are happy
70 state that both these gentlemen were
well pleased with our towns present
and also with the evident
prosperity of the steam flour mill,
which they visited.

At the last regular meeting of our
grange the following resolution was
passed:
Resolved, That we, members of E. C.
G. p. of H. favor @co-operation with
other oranges, farmers clubs and CO.
operative unions of Lyon county, in
calling convention of farmers to reg
ulate the price of grain.
To THE farmers OF LYON COUNTY.
We firmly believe there is not enough
wheat raised in Lyon county to supply
the demand for seed and bread for the
ensuing year. could give the names
of some of our hitherto best wheat
growers who got less than one bushel
per acre, and this on So acres of ground
sown. In fact the actual yield was ~
bushels, less than the seed sown. 9th
ers who reported. a larger yield than
the average find upon careful meas
urement of the ground, they had a
third more land sown than reported.
There are several small fields that will
average twenty bushels per acre, but
the majority will yield but about ten
bushels. Edwin Crocker, from two and
q half bushels winter wheat sown, har-
vested 55 bushels. From imported
seed spring wheat VIM. Croker raised
eight bushels from two sown; Mrs.
Mckee raised four bushels from two
sown; Isaac Smith raised 25 bushels
from four sown. While the cost of
wheat is roughly estimated at 81 per
bushel, experience teaches us, one sea-
son with another, this is too low.
What we want are facts. Pillow your
land, harrow, drill or sow your grain,
count cost of seed, harvesting, thresh-
ing, board of hands, self and team,
just as you would If working for some
one else, then base the price OF your
wheat offered at cost-mind you no one
sells to you at cost-and see if you can
sell it. There should not be a farmer
in this county now who cannot from
his books or even memory, come at the
cost of his grain in few minutes.
Mine cost a fraction over $l.16 per
bushel. The market price for such
wheat in Emporia is S1.05. True had
some bad luck, such as lodged wheat,
bugs. etc, but no worse than usual. 1
think if we should keep our eyes open
We could find those who have done
worse. Now, brothers, lets commence
reform right at home, practice it and
preach it, ins ist upon its being carried
out in the gran ge, club and home cir
Gle. We can all figure out what we
buy, lets figure out the actual cost of
production of all our crops; wheat,
corn, oats, potatoes, also cattle, horses,
and hogs, also fencing, hedging, farm
and teachers wages, board, and in fact
our whole business, and if we wish to
have a talk on practical subjects, lets
be sociable, call convention and then
attend to business.
