Stock and Agricultural Con-
ditions,

In Sundays Leavenworth Tines ap-
pears an exhaustive report of the crop,
fruit and stock condition of the various
counties in this state. The news from
Trego county is so conservative, and, rs
we believe, correct, that we reproduce it:
The acreage planted will average an
increase of at least 50 per cent. The
leading cereals are wheat and rye; all the
grain looks well; some few pieces of
wheat were injured by the hard winter;
have not had any trouble with insects.
Few hogs are raised; cattle about $4,000
head, an increase of 5000 head over last
year; sheep about 10000 head, increase of
about 5000; loss from disease very small;
during the past winter loss from freezing
was pretty heavy. During the past year
we havehad about one hundred and fifty
new settlers; since January 1, about five
hundred. The country is too new to have
bearing fruit trees; general feeling of
confidence exists and rapid rising in
value We have one chalk mine being
worked in the county, but not extensively.

materially from year to year in western
Kansas. Enough rain falls every year to
produce crops. The trouble is in the lack
of proper distribution through the crop
season. This, we claim, will be corrected,
to great extent, at least, when the very
texture of the earth's surface is changed
by the substitution of the roots of the
taller grasses for those of the buffalo
grass. Then the rains will sink into the
earth. Now they do not to any con-
siderable extent where the buffalo-grass
sod exists Then the local conditions
will assist in producing local showers.
Now they do not. Then the hot winds
will be unknown-if not completely, then
comparatively. Their origin is local.
Origin is necessary to existence.

THAT industriously-edited ex-

been enlarged from 6-column folio to a
5-column quarto, and has been vastly i'm
proved otherwise. Mr.. Wright is too
industrious and fearless in his newspaper
work to be in any danger Of failing in

great deal, and she ought to begin to pay,
at least, some interest on the indebted
ness by showing her appreciation of the
marked improvement in his Leader.

IT seems that the observance of
Decoration day in western Kansas will be
reality at every point where Grand

the bulk of the boys and the citizens

soldiers will probably be left behind to
see that proper services are held.

"OFFENsIvE PARTISAN depends
strictly on the wish of the president for
its meaning. The statute, beyond giving
the senate the chance to checkmate the
president in the choice of a particular
appointee, is not in his way the strength
Of straw. It is impossible for the
senate to restore any official whom the
president has deposed. There is nothing
in this which is difficult to understand.
