THE EAST AND THE WEST

Mr.. W. c. McCune, who is home from an
extensive trip in Illinois, Indiana and Ohio,
gives gloomy account Of things generally
where he has Travelled. The crops were
poor, prices are no better. and in some in
| stances not as good as with us. His folks in
Ohio threshed the product of fifty acres OF
wheat which yielded only 800 bushels, which
Is ten bushels per acre. The price there is
80 cents for new and so cents for old wheat.
Corn amounts 10 nothing. "After you get
out of Kansas, said Mr.. Nc, there is no
building going on. You wouldn't hear the
sound of hammer, nor the click of chisel.
Everything is dead He went and re-
turned BY different roads and it was much
the same story everywhere. He took par
ticular pains to see and enquire how every
thing stood and TO compare them with our
own town and country and said he was more
than ever satisfied with his location in
Wichita. Wei, that just what everybody
SAYS. Just such accounts are given by
everyone who has made II trip east this year,
and much the same account comes from the
west. Taking the accounts o: J. c. and W.
b. Jones, who have just returned from the
west. and Mr.. McCune's account from the
east, and putting them together, it viii be
apparent that, notwithstanding business
don't come fully up to the peoples wishes
here, this is the favored spot in all this
broad land. Milling wheat in Ohio. saws
Mr.. McCunc, brings only so cents per bush
el; here it brings So to 90. New corn brings
here - cents Der bushel and oats Il cents,
and the yield per acre is, in general. double
that on the best lands east. which are highly
cultivated and manured. Many Of our own
people laughed nj the EAGLE when it said
that land in this county would bring S75 to
500 per acre before many years, but Mr..
McCune SAYS land that is held At $50 to 500
per acre east won't raise over half the crop
ours does and The price IS no better. Then
why are not lands here as valuable.
