Seegwick County's Wheat Fields.

The area of wheat sown last fall was not so
great as that Of the year previous by several
thousand acres. and owing to the dry wealth
or much that was sown promised poorly as
late as the middle of December but the abun-
dant fall Of snow throughout the early part
Of December and January worked wonders.
In conversations with intelligent and obsery-
ing farmers from different parts of the coun-
ty we learn that many large fields in which
the seed showed no signs of terminating in
the fall now present solid green. Many Of
the latter fields look better than Others that 20,
start early in the season. Some say that the
young plant is better and more deeply rooted
than usual. II is safe TO say that the wheat
fields Of Sedgwick county, in the main. prom
Use finely. The SHOWS have left the ground
so thoroughly saturated that no fears of dis
astrous effects from a dry windy March and
April need be entertained. Under present
market prospects heavy yield of wheat
would prove most satisfactory. The civilized
countries Of the world, with few exceptions.
had abundant wheat haryests last year. but
the plague and ether disasters of Eastern Eu-
rope have rendered il certain that the COM
ing season America will find a live and high
priced market for all her surplus breadstuifs

The musical convention closed its session
Friday evening. To say il was success.
would be putting it iamcly. The convention
proved 10 be more than was anticipated for
it by its most ardent supporters. The class
was large and the interest manifested by the
scholars was remarkable and all, with but
one or two exceptions. say it was success.
As a conductor, Prof Perkins proved himself
master of his profession and gentleman.
The one just held was his one hundredth
convention. The concerts Thursday and Fri
day evenings were tolcrably well attended.
We refrain from making special mention of
individual participants. but asa whole they
did well, coming up fully TO what was antici-
pated, and we think the interest which was
awakened during the session will be of last
ing benefit and has opened the way and de-
monstrated very plainly that the musical peo-
pie of Wichita, with the assistance of their
friends. can have an annual convention. or
else more than that. normal session.
