small Farms in Kansas.

As rule, there are very few
large farms in Kansas-no none that
approach in extent the immense
domains owned by one person in
California, Oregon, Minnesota, and
some other States. Land monopo-
ly is not so popular in Kansas, and
we doubt if it is profitable. With
rare exceptions, our farms include
only one quarter of land-160 acres
or, at most, half a section or a
section. There are a few farmers
who own more than a section of
land but they are exceedingly scarce.
1t is fortunate for Kansas that its
land is, as rule, subdivided into
small tracts. owned by farmers who
do their own work. The remarka-
BILE prosperity of the State is due
largely to this fact.

THE American Ship says: GA
Chicago firm has signed contracts in
which it agrees to furnish fresh
meat in Liverpool at the net price
of Is. cd. per 100 pounds. The meat
will be retailed at the average price
of Sd. per pound. Thus American
fresh meats are cheaper in Liver
pool than where they are produced"

The Knoxville Tribune, which
very ably advocates an honorable
adjustment of the State debt, gives
the poor man some food for thought
i'm the following paragraph: "The
failure of the State to adjust its debt
falls heavier upon poor, honest,
hard working men than upon any
others. Men of money do not need
credit; poor men do. The destruc-
ton of confidence, and the loss of
credit, which is the result of repudi-
alton, Injuries every poor man in
the land who labOrs for living by
depriving him of employment or
by reducing the wages of his labor"

This Sarsaparilla is combination Of
vegetable alternatives - Stillingia, Man
drake, Yellow Dock with the Iodides
of Potassium and Iron, and is the most
efticacious medicine yet known for
the diseases it is intended to cure. ~
Its ingredients are so skilfully COM
bined, that the full Alternative effect of
each is assured, and while it is SO mild
as to be harmless even to children, it is
still so effectual as to purge out from the
system those impurities and corruptions
which develop into loathsome disease.
The reputation it enjoys is derived
from its cures, and the confidence which
prominent physicians all over the coun-
try repose in it, prove their experience
of its usefulness.
Certificates attesting its virtues have
accumulated, and are constantly being
received, and as many of these cases are
publicly known, they furnish convincing
evidence Of the superiority of this Sar-
saparilla over every other Alternative
medicine. So generally is its superb
GRITTY to any other medicine known, that
we need do no more than to assure the
public that the best qualities it has ever
possessed are strictly maintained.
