It is now an admitted fact that Kan
sas is not receiving anything like the
immigration it has been receiving for
The past several years, and this in face
of the fact that the immigration to the
United States is larger, by hundreds
Of thousands than it ever was. The
people who were wont to come to Kan
!sas now go to Texas, stop in Missouri,
locate in Minnesota, anywhere and
everywhere except Kansas. There is
u cause for this. What is it? Our
lands are just as fertile and productive,
our taxes are no greater but less, our
financial condition is better than it
ever was, our educational advantages
are no less superior Why is it, then
that emigration is diverted sfrom the
beaten path that has heretofore led to
Kansas. There must DE a reason, and
somebody ought to toe wise enough
to determine whatit is.

Of growing corn. The Eagle says
'"This is the largest area ever planted
in the county, and the yield will be
the largest ever produced by any one
county in any one year in the history
OF Kansas. So far as the corn crop is
concerned the season has been most
favorable, and that Sedgwick County
will harvest 4, OOO, 600 bushels of corn
there is no doubt. Such vast
amount of corn is almost beyond COM

unless special and very favorable rates
can be obtained only small per cent
of this vast amount will be shipped
either West or to st. Louis. Hogs,

the most of it at home, making it

clay, and other conditions are favorable,
hem ay expect plump, soft berry, and
full crop. If his soil is sandy, and
other conditions favorable, the wheat is
likely to have a smaller but harder kerr
mel, the quality will perhaps be better,
but the quantity somewhat less. If the
soil be too moist, it will pay to under
drain. Tile drains, two rods apart and
at an average depth Of three feet, have
doubled the crop and paid the total ex-
pense of the drainage in single year.
Ii for any reason undertaking can not
be practiced, no fear of incommoding the
reaper ought to be allowed to prevent
making sufficient number of open fur
rows for surface drainage. The great
est possible Inconvenience at harvest
time is poor crop. Black mucky land,
after it is drained, may need to be
dressed with fertilizers, such as salt,
lime or bone-dust. A dry poor soil

a MARYLAND Barbecue

Very few know just what barbecue
means. Well, if you want to see one in
all its glory, 60 to Maryland. The
barbecue ground is generally located
near fine spring. Around it's clear
waters are hung a score Of gourd dippers.
Starting early in the morning we find
the campers already humming like hive
Long, broad bitches have been dug, and
these are foored with Goals foot deep,
over which are laid great splits, and on
these huge carcasses OF hogs and bull
locks. Farther on beyond these trenches
are great log fires which are kept con-
stantly blazing, SO that at any time the
bitches may be replenished with Goals.
Such kissing and cracking as there is
above these immense fires as the noun
tain flames curl and wreathe themselves
into great columns of smoke; scores of
coaches, buggies and wagons are pour
ing in, filed with a laughing, jolly
crowd, all intent upon a days frolic.
families come on horseback, while not
unf1equently can be seen three riders on
one mule. Gayly dressed ladies come
out with escorts, and negroes pour m on
the foot The whole country seems to
have entered into the frolic. Down by
the great boiling kettles the darkies are
dressing shoats, sheep and great beeves.
Every animal is left whole, but is split
to the backbone. Long tables are
spread beneath the pines. The horn is
blown for dinner. AS the band strikes
up lively air the people wind in a long,
fantastic line in and out among the
trees to the widespread tables beneath.
Babies crow and prattle, mothers chat
together, while old people find they
have not forgotten how to laugh. Ger
tainly nothing can be more jolly than a
Maryland barbecue.

THE WIND ON THE HILL.

o sweet is the summer air
Which steals down the Chestnut Walk,
When the children are playing there,
While lovers wander and talk.
But the wind on the hill for me,
And the mist across the down,
And the bright light over the sea,
And ships coming home to the town!
merry the sunny strand,
Where waves wash in at ones feet,
And the wives and the children stand
And wait for the fishing fleet.
But the wind on the hill for me,
And the mist across the down,
And the strong light over the sea,
And ships coming home to the town
stately the castle tower
Mid its cedars, dark and still,
Where ghosts come back at midnight hour,
And the midday sun falls chill.
But the wind on the hill for me,
And the mist across the down,
And the wild light over the sea,
And ships coming home to the town
And solemn the gray church spire,
Il can see it, looking down y
With its weather-vane tipped with fire,
As the sun sets over the town.
But the wind on the hill for me,
And the mist across the down,
And the golden light on the sea,
And ships going out from the town!
There's grave by the old church door
THAT changed all the world one day.,
Can it be the mist from the moor
Creeps up as look that way?
But the wind on the hill for me,
And the mist across the down.
Though the light is sad on the sea,
And the ships go out from the town.
should like to die on the hill,
Some day as the sun goes down,
And the wind, blowing strong and chill,
Drives out the ships from the town
Yes! the wind on the hill for me,
And the mists may lie below;
There's glad light over the sea,
And a secret for me to know!
