The Kansas Farmer, published ab To
peka, now in its twenty-second year, a 16-
page agricultural paper, is unquestionabiy
the best paper of its class in the country
for farmers of this state. Every Issue
contains more or less matter especially
prepared for it by farmers, stock-raisers,
dairymen, poultry and bee-keepers, horti-
culturists, and others engaged in the prac-
teal work Of agriculture. The crop,
stock and weather reports are specially
valuable. II publishes the stray list for
the entire state, and copy is regular
" mailed to every county clerks
Office for fling. The editor was trained
to farm life and work from his childhood,
and he knows what farmers need. And
there is always page or more of the pa
per devoted to matter for family reading.
A copy OF the Farmer can be seen at this
Office any time.
The regular subscription price of the
Kansas Farmer is $3.50 year; but we
have a special contract with the publish
ers by which we are enabled to offer it in
connection with the WORLD, both papers
one year for $3.50.

that school bonds shall not be voted I'M

How CHILDREN GRow.-A remarkable
physiological discovery has been made by
Rev. Mailing Hansen, principal of the
Danish institution for the Deaf and
Dumb. During a period Of three years
he has made frequent, careful measure
ments and weighings OF the $50 children
under his charge, and has reached the
conclusion that the body does not increase
evenly in bulk and height throughout The
year, but that during some months the
child accumulates bulk and remains
stationary in height, while at another
time there is growth in stature with COM
paratively little increase IN weight. These
results are confirmed by similar expert
ments in several smaller institutions in
Denmark.

TIE PROBATE JUD0sHIP.

In selecting probate judge the Peo-
pie should take pains TO vote for the
candidate best qualified for the Office.
The matter of issuing druggists per-
mits sinks into insignillcence compar-
ed with the Importance of settling NJ
estates Of deceased persons Of watch
ing after the interests of the widows
and orphans; of protecting young and
innocent girls from designing men who
would deceive them into wedlock
While we do not claim for the demo-
cratic candidate for probate judge that
he is better and smarter than all Others
In the county, we do claim that he is
better qualified for the position in ev.
cry way than the present incumbent
Judge Hardy.
Mr.. Proctor was educated in a cleri.
cal position and spent sixteen years OF
his life attending to particular Office
business. BY reason of an accident
he Is not able to follow the pillow, or we
could recommend him as the ideal
farmers candidate {; but just the same
he is tiller of the soil and during his
seven years residence in the county, BIZ
has made his living from agricultural
pursuits.
His record for honesty and capacity
cannot be surpassed; his private life
has been that of a good citizen he is in
sympathy with the masses and in the
probate judges office he would give
satisfaction 10 all alike.
The Office is now lady kept the re-
cords are incomplete the Legitimate
business of the office has been neglect
ed that the land business might be at.
tended to; and now the time has come
when careful and painstaking man
should be elected probate Judge.
i. s. Proctor is that man.

no NEJY SETTLERS.

To these new settlers in Southwest
tern Kansas who are just now undecid-
ed as to what party they shall cast
their fortunes with this year. n word
may not be inappropriate. We say "
you haye been n republican, lay aside
your party prejudices and vote for the
interests of your country and for the
men who will most honestly represent
you.
II was the democratic party that
wrested this,great southwest from the
hands Of corporations and land grab
hers and made IL possible for poor
man to secure the l6O acres the law
allowed him.
10 Is the democratic party that has
dlscountcnanced adventures and spec
ulators in their efforts to prove up valu
able claims only to leave them whenthe
last stroke of the pen had been made
On their final prof papers, never to re-
turn here again.
u Is the democratic party that has
protected the new settler against tile
rascallty of claim jumpers and rascally
land-lOcatOrs.
The present member Of congress may
at one time have been one Of the peO-
pie but long association with the mo-
nopolists and their paid representatives
has made him their plant tool. No
railroad corporation has asked that Mr..
Peters be kept at home, as was request
ed In the ease of Mr.. Anderson in the
fifth distict. Thomas George would be a
better representative Of the people.
Vote for George for congress.

COUNTY ATTORNEY.

There is no comparison between the
democratic and republican candidates
for county attorney. Mr.. Jones, the
democratic candidate is wide-awake,
fearless lawyer, infatuated with his
profession and competent to ill the Of
fee. lie is associated with one of the
ablest lawyers in the county, Mr.. Den
ton, and the county would virtually get
the services of the firm by electing Mr..
Jones. The democratic candidate
keeps posted in his profession, he being
a tireless student and the county COM
missioners would not find it necessary
TO employ an attorney TO do the work
the county attorney is paid for. Mr..
Jones should receive the support of
every tax payer who wants to see costs
in criminal cases reduced; who wants
to see offenders prosecuted and con-
Yicted.
On the other hand, Mr.. Whitaker,
the republican nominee is nothing
more than an inferior village law
yer, with but little experience out
of Justices court. and with moth
ing in his composition that would
ever make him a success as a public
speaker and could only succeed i'm tir-
ing jury without ever securing con-
victiOn. He knows nothing of county
matters he doesn't know the differ
ence between road petition and a writ
Of ecrtiOrdri he could be of no possible
benefit to the county commissioners as
an advisor and in short Ne could not
acceptably fill the Office of county
attorney.

Last week, in the absence of Mr..
Caruthers. the writer of this article,
who is a ''recent importation" was
misinformsd in regard to the county
assessment, and also in calling Mr..
Lindley democrat, for which latter Of
Tense he begs pardon Of the democratic
party. The Cresset jumps on the arti-
Gle with both feet, which was all right,
but in its rejoicing it goes on to say
that all men who carried guLs or sabres
in the time Of our country's peril must
be republicans. That is very thin wash.
We beg the Cresset to look over the list
Of prominent democrats in the north
and west, and see how many were lead
ing generals i'm the Union army. If the
Cresset wants to rejoice over the mis-
take Of what the republican convention
would call recent Importation" it
has that right, and also the right to re-
jOice over the fact that the cost of as
sessment by republican is growing
faster than the population. As to the
other error we made. in calling MIR.
Cummins a republican We had no
ticed that he was taking every occasion
to belittle the national administration
we had noticed that he was the candI-
date of the republicans for township
Office, and we naturally concluded that
he was a publican. We are now in
formed that he has no politics worth
mentioning and We hope the republi-
cans viii accept this apology.
