Every body in this section seems to be
intent on seeing who will come out
first best with the weeds The show
ers of rain we have lad lately have,
made the corn grow astonishingly.
In many places the last planting of
corn is just about big enough to plow.
Can it be that corn planted so late will
have lime to mature before frost?
June, and with a very favorable season
ard thorough cultivation it barely
made its escape from being nipped.
Some pieces of fall wheat are badly
injured by the overflow, but that which
was favOrably located is well filled,
the berry being plump and full.
Spring wheat Is not success. Some
pieces are totally ruined, while much
of it seems to be filling well, with a
promise of fair crop.

that full attendance should be had

Importance are to be acted upon, and

make it point to attend these monthly
meetings. We are considerably be-
hind other clubs in point of interest

He is looking after the reduction of the
price of agricultural implements OF all
kinds, and has been successful, getting
quite a reduction on ali of the most
important implements, which very di-
rectly interests every farmer. 1t be-
hOoyes US to take immediate action In
the matter, become auxiliary to the

A WORD To TRAVELLERS We have
word to say in favor of the Missouri
Pacific railroad. 1t was the "pioneer"
line Westward and is the sold reliable
route to st. I.onis. With the improve
ments which have been made during
the past year, we believe that the Mis-
souri, Pacific railroad has the best
track and the finest and safest equip
ment of any line west of the Mississ-
ippi. It is the only line which runs
three daily express trains Of fine
coaches and Pullman sleepers, equip
ped with the Miller platform and the
patent air brake, from leading points
la the West, through Kansas City, Sc
dalia and Jefferson City to St. Louis
without change, connecting at st.
