CORN SHRLNKAGE.


Kansas City Indicator: Where is there
one farmer in ten thousand who has we'll
defined ideas as to how much corn, in
crib, loses in a year or any other period,
from'drying alone, to say nothing of the
continual waste caused by vermin wealth
or, leaks and piiferers? The question of
how much ear corn loses in weight by
evaporation, while remaining IN the CRIB
during the winter months, was the sub
ject of a test employed during the past
year by Prof. Shelton of the
Kansas Agricultural college. On No
vember .. 200 pounds of corn in the con-
dition OF ears, was placed in box which
had been secured in position near the
center of an ordinary corn crib with a
capacity of about six hundred bushels.
The corn used was an early rIpening
sort which had been ripe fully six weeks
before II was husked. Although taken
directly from the field to the box, 1t was
IN condition of almost perfect dry ness.
Soon afterwards the crib was filed, in
which condition it remained until near
spring, when portion of the corn in
the crib was removed. never, however,
IN sufficient quantity to uncover the box.
Prof. Shelton says: "On July 1, ex.
acly eight months from the time the
corn had been set aside, the box was
opened, and ITS contents found to be in
good condition, but weighing only 1917
pounds. The 200 pounds had lost by
evaporation exactly 1919 pounds, or
rather more than 6 per cent.
at would seem from this that the
farmer who carries his corn crop until
spring in the hope OF realizing higher
prices thereby should be very sure of
SIX per cent increase in value; and, con-
siderIng the inevitable losses from YER
min and the elements, something more,
if in the spring the corn realizes what it
would have fetched in the tall.
"Whether the loss is from the grain or
the cob of corn, am unable to say pos
itively, but, from some recent expert
ence in weighing corn of different de-
grees of dryness, am inclined to the be-
lief that the loss is mostly from the cob"

Kansas Wheat Prospects.

TOPEKA, June 4.-Much anxiety is
expressed over the disastrous report In
regard to the production of the wheat
crop in this state. The secretary of the
state board of agriculture says
his June report was not ready
butwould be out Friday night.
He refuses to give any figures
but said the news had been very dlscour-
ing, and that the best wheat counties in
many instances would be total failure
on account of the Hessisn fly and chInch
bug. Many wheat fields that up to ten
days ago promised half q crop are now
heading out cheat. This, said the Sec
retary, is the worst failure in wheat that
Kansas has ever experienced. In long
talk In which he declined to give official
figures he said it was no use
in Disgusting the fact that in many 10
calities farmers would not get their seed.
The information was that very large
area of the wheat which at the last re-
port was considered promising was now
either being ploWed up or cattle had
been turned in upon it. Mr. Craney,
manager of the largest mill in this city,
said he had Just returned from tour Of
the wheat districts and that in his opIn-
ion the entire harvest would net exceed
15, OO0, 900 bushels. It was learned TO-
day that the secretary Of the state board
Will reduce has April estimates 80 per
cent, which will make the estimated
yield about 10, ZOO, 900 bushels, or about
81 600 geo bushels less THAI last year.
Corn now Is the only hope for Kansas
this year.

He Saw the Fails.

At the Falls of Montmorency, below
Quebec, there is hotel by the roadside
where you pay twenty-five cents to a
woman who can't talk English and in
consideration of this you are allowed to
see the falls. A young fellow paid just
as I left the house to walk across the
fields to the steps in front of the falls.
He came running after me. He was
very anxious to see them. He had
walked all the way from Quebec-about
nine miles-and now his impotence
was getting the better of him.
"You paid first" he said, 'but would
y1n mind my ny going down the steps

though, the steps are wide enough for
two to go down"
81 suppose so, but I want to get
there before crowd comes. hate q

sit is too late in the season for a
crowd. l don't suppose anyone has
been here for a month"
AS we came to the long stairway he
hoped merrily down, two stairs at a
time. Suddenly his feet went out from
under him and he went down the stair,
which is very steep, in a sitting pos
ture, giving a shrek every time he hit
a new step. There were several plat
forms, but he shot over them with in
credible swiftness in spite of all his eff
forts to stop, and at one time thought
nothing would save him from going
right down into the current. However,
he flung his arms around one of the
railing supports and hung on there
seemingly panic stricken till reached
him. found that after the first few
top steps the rest had been covered
with spray that had frozen and made
every step as slippery as glass. 1t re-
quired a good deal of caution and a
persistent clinging to the rail to get
down in any other way than the some

ance had so thoughtles -ly adopted.
s'You are too inpatient" said sooth-
ingly. 'You shouldn't have done that.
Do you think twenty-five cents pays
for such wear and tear of the steps as
you put them to. This is not tobog-
gaming slide you know"
..For Heavens sake" he cried, show

81 guess we'll both get up the same
way. Hang on where you are and look
at the falls"
'.Falls!'' he said in disgust "I've
had about 500 separate and distinct
falls. Falls enough to last me until
next season. When I visit Montmor-
ency again it will be in summer"
And with that he crawled up on his
hands and knees, and saw him no
more.-DetToit Free Press.

nieein1 Diamonds.

CHICAGO, June 4.-According to a
story made public here this morning 9
lawyer named Frank C. Smith has at
last been successful In discovering and
digging up 5000 worth of diamonds
that had been buried in Lincoln Park
here by his client, Rev. j. Anderson, who
last November was sent to the penitentl-
airy on q fifteen years. sentence for burg
larry. There were solitaire ring, soil
tare breastpin, pair of solitaire earrings
and q emerald pin. The diamonds
were all Of the first water and handsome
ly cut, deep and pure. In the month of
June, 1884, L. U. Walker OF Covlngton,
KY, left Milwaukee for Waukesha
Springs with Mrs. Walker. She placed
her jewelry in a small hand bag and it
was carelessly thrown On the seat beside
her, and when she was gathering up her
articles to leave the car the bag was gone.
Anderson has always maintained he did
not steal, but that one of his gang who
was in the sleeper saw Mrs. Watkins
careless act and taking advantage of her
absence for a moment stole the bag. Mr..
Smith promptly communicated with Mr.
Walker, who had removed to Lexington
and then to Salt Lake City. Mr.. Walker
has come on TO Chicago to identify and
claim his property. Anderson, is stated
TO be member of a wealthy family in
New York. The restoration of the dia-
monds is supposed to be a part of the
moement to secure pardon.

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES TpEEs


New York Tribune: Amateur forest
ers who hope to save our streams and
insure our timber supply for the future
by Arbor Day celebrations need TO be
reminded sometimes that roadside tree
planting is not forestry. The substan-
tisl advantage, however, which this
spring ceremony brings Is that it excites
an interest IN trees, especially among the
children, who will grow up with them.
Young aeople who are led to watch tie
unfolding beauty of an oak or elm and
to compare one tree with another will
acquire a habit of observation in this
direction which their fathers and
mothers lack. How many people in
this city can tell the names of the few
trees that struggle for life along
the sidewalks. In country vii
lagos grown men and women can
be found whose ignorance in this direc-
ton is quite as dense, and 1t is whisper
ed that there are farmers even who can.
not tell how many species of oaks are
growing uncared for in their wood lots
If Arbor Day encourages the children 70
take an atfectionate interest in certain
individual trees, this will help them to
use their eyes until they can take an in.
telligent interest in the growth OF all
trees.
From every point of view there is
much to commend in the proposed con-
nection OF Decoration Day with ArboE
Day. In this latitude the last of May is
too late for the successful planting OF
deciduous trees. But tree planted on
Arbor Day In memory of some fallen
soldier could be dedicated on Decoration
Day and the land would soon be dotted
all over with living memorials of the
patriotic dead. The proposition did
not come early enough tor general
adoption this year, but preparation can
be made for another spring, when the
beautiful custom of commemorative
planting can be established for all tune,
The department commander of the
Grand Army of the Republic has Issued
acircular recommending the practice,
and the Hon. Clinton L. Marian, of the
State Foresty association, has furnished
every post with pamphlet published by
the government giving brief directions
as 70 planting and other matter which
will be helpful and instructive to many.
All this will in an indirect way help
to call attention to the advantages OF
more general attention to forest culture.
But the commemorative feature alone
should commend the project. A white
oak Will endure as long as shaft of
marble. And the living monument will
continue to grow In dignity and impress
siveness until its age Is counted by Gen.
turtles.

or CONRSE.

Leavenworth Standard: There seems
to be q studied attempt on the part of
some of the Missouri papers to misrep-
resent the object of Secretary Bayard's
trip west He comes to attend CON-
mencement at the Kansas State Univers-
ity, and to deliver the commencement
Grafton at that institution. He stops at
Columbia college in Missouri, to be sure,
but It is merely a common place Incl
dent of his trip to the Kansas State
University. Mr.. Bayard, it is known,
has long desired to visit Kansas, but of
course he cannot do that without passing
through Missouri, unless he should con-
siderablY lengtheu his journey by going
around by Arkansas and the Indian Ter
ritory, or through Iowa and Nebraska.
After 'sizing mp" the situation, to speak
in Kansas City vernacular, Missouri
urged the secretary to stop at her college
and 20 talk 20 the boys little while. He
consented 10 do SO, and will make briei
call at Columbia while on his way 70 the
Kansas State University.
