LETTER FROM KANSAS.
Mr.. EDITOR:
Thinking that somo of

Thinking that somo of
your readers would probably like to
hear something from this part OF Kan
sas, take the liberty of writing a few
lines for your columns,
We had a severe drouth all summer
and fall. The streams are very low
and some of them dried up altogether,
and as q consequence the wheat crop
was almost q total failure. The aver
age yield in this part of Lincoln coun-
ty Is hardly two bushels per acre,
which does not pay the cost Of cutting
and threshing. Early corn WAS also a
failure, especially on bottom lands. On
the uplands it was some better. You
must not Judge the state Of Kansas,
however, by the condition Of this coun-
ty. In October l was on visit to Mr..
Uriah Spangler, In Harvey county,
southeast from here. They had a
good crop of corn and q fair crop of
wheat. In passing through Rice, Har-
vey aud Mcpherson counties, and see
ing the stacks Of hay and straw piled
up, one would not have thought that
they had any drouth at all. This is
the most beautiful section of country
ever saw-almost perfect level. New
ton, the county ''seat of Harvey coun-
ty, is q beautiful town Of $500 inhabi-
tants. Mr.. Kinney, formerly of Re
bersburg, keeps a restaurant here, just
opposite the depot. Returning home
passed through LYONS, county seat of
Rice county. 1t Is beautiful little
town, on branch Of the .Atchison,
Topeka and Santa Fe r. r.
In the western counties a great
many people. have left their settle
ments. A law was passed In their IA
vor extending their claims Is months
longer. Some settlers in our county
have also taken advantage OF this law.
Mr.. John Smeltzer, formerly of Mad
isonburg, and Mr.. Adam Slower of
Spring Mills, have gone to Illinois.
Others have returned to the east, ito
his wife's folks" as our western pa
pers put it. Mr.. George Boon has al
so gone back to Sugar Valley.
Our schools are pretty generally
opened now except some few who have
no teachers yet. Our term is from to
6 months. Wages range from SIS to
SO per month.
We had & protracted meeting Evan
gelical Associalion) about s miles
northeast from here. Bishop Dubs
paid us visit Nov. 1lth.
My observation is that Lincoln is a
very healthy county. Consumptives
are very rare. More anon.

Land owners who desire to get rid OF
their stumps, may find something to
their advantage in the following re-
commendation from the Scientific Amer.
icdn: ''In the autumn bore hole one
or two inches in diameter, according to
the girth of the stump, vertically in the
centre of the latter, and about eighteen
inches deep. Put into it one or two
ounces of saltpetre; lill the hole with
water and plug it up close. In the en-
suing spring take out the plug and
pour in about a half gill of kerosene
oil and ignite it. The stump will
shoulder away without blazing, to the
very extremity of the roots, leaving
nothing but ashes"
