ChInch Rnn.

We have been informed by a number
of farmers that the wheat and corn are
full of chinch bugs, and fears are enter
tanned that they will greatly damage the
crops. Mr.. VIM. Jay informs us that
his young corn is nearly black with
them, and from Neosho Rapids comes
the report that they are wonderfully
thick in wheat and corn fields in that
section. Other parts of the county arc
infested by these destructive insects, and
the farmers have reason TO feel some
what discouraged over the outlook for a
Dlentiful harvest

The Homeopatl
Uncle Sans Men.

Uncle Sans letter Carriers are a hard
working set of men, and are liable to
contract rheumatism because of the con-
slant exposure to which they are sub
jected. Calling at the post-office the
reporter had a pleasant conversation
with Mr.. j. II. Mattern, one of the most
popular and clever letter carriers In In
dianapolis. Mr.. Mattern SAID that, while
in the army during the civil war, he
sprained one of his ankles, which was
always worse in the spring the period
of the rapid changes in the weather. He
did not find much relief from the sever
al remedies he applied. But two years
ago he hit upon st Jacobs Oil, and ex-
perienced wonderful relief from its use
Several applications of the Great Ger
man Remedy relieved him entirely. The
reporter talked with others among the
letter carriers and found that the Great
German Remedy was popular in the
postoffice. They use it for sore feet,
rheumatism, ETC., and praise it highly.

HnM,a HhIao

One of the largest and best cattle sales
ever made in the county was consum-
mated few days ago by T. ]. Price,
who disposed of a hundred head of fat
steers to some parties from Eldorado, at
a sum which brought up the average to
the handsome figure of 800 per head.
This will afford our readers outside of
the state some idea of the grand posi-
bllities of stock growing in Kansas, and
OF the remunerative character of this
industry when properly managed. Mr.
Price is one of the most successful cat
tie men in the state, and seems To have
brought with him the proverbial luck
