A very large acreage of corn has
been planted thus far in this township,
and some is up in fine shape. The
wheat crop is generally admitted to be
in better condition than for years, and
the oat prospects are by no means bad.
Should the present favorable weather
continue, and all signs so indicate, the
crops of Kansas this season will sur
pass all previous records. Consequent
from this the marvellous growth of
Barton county which last year was
slightly deferred, will be resumed this
summer with only increased vigor.
Central Kansas has passed the ficti-
tious, mushroom era still prevalent in
some sections, and its growth hence
forth will, although less rapid, be far
more substantial than ever.

Chairman U.L. P. of Barton c,
Kansas Farmers.

The Kansas Farmer this week pre-
sents its readers with special reports
from eight counties i'll the state show
ing the condition of crops and. stock
April was colder than usual all over
the state and that kept back the grass
es, leaving stock to hold out two weeks
longer on short feed, but no losses are
reported. Cattle are now on pasture,
tame or wild, and are doing well.
They are generally thin but in good
health. Losses from exposure during
the winter were too small to note.
A large increased acreage of oats and
wheat are reported, and both crops are
growing vigorously. Wheat was never
in better condition at this time of the
year. 1t is unfortunate that the acre
age is not larger. Chinch bugs are fly
ing in some places, but they are not
feared. The weather is too wet fol
them. Corn is nearly all planted and
cultivators have been in the field a
week in the southern counties.
In few localities rain is needed but
quite generally over the state the ground
is well moistened, working easily, and
all manner of vegetation is growing
well. In the western counties a great
deal of tree planting has been done and
is still in progress, including fruit and
forest varieties. Sorghum, rice, corn,
Kaffir corn, and alfalfa is being planted
largely in the west, and tame grasses
are increased in all directions. The
reports show a good condition this
year.

conclusion that when they come here
and see our beautiful city and country
they are sure to stay. a number have

Mr. A. D. Maloney went to Kansas
City on Saturday last and returned on

do farmers, and the Express, together
with other numerous friends, wishes
for them long and happy life.
Last spring people in the east hesi-
tated to come west, fearing that the
country in all respects was not as
represented. They held back until all
uncertainties were at an end, and
they might come prepared to stay.
This climate and soil has been
thoroughly tested, and has not been
found deficient in any way. The i'm
migration may seek a home on the
prairies of Barton county, with assur-
ance that an abundance can be raised
the first year to keep their heads far
above the waves of want.

there were number of men solemn
and sedate, and an old woman at a
meeting. The first man got up and
said: %, yes; 1 am in ship sailing
straight to heaven, and my bark is
sailing fast. I'm going at the rate of
seventeen knots an hour, and I'll soon
be near the shore The second, to
slightly overcome the former professor,
said: Yes, I'm sailing home; my ship
is going forty knots an hour, and I'll
soon be near the shore The old lady
listened carefully to every word, and
when the men had pictured their relig-
ion on their ships, she got up and said:
Well, you all are getin' long mighty
fast. have been goin' to heaven for
seventy years, and I've walked all the
way. If l get there at all I'll walk the
rest of the ways, and all I've got to say
to you men is that if you get to goin'
much faster you'll bust your boilers,
and you won't git there tall'."

A DRIVE of number of miles over
the prairies north of the city, Sunday,
gave us the impression that nothin G
more could be desired at the present
time to make the rich soil of this favor
ed county bring forth peace and plenty.
The green level fields of wheat and
oats and corrugated acres of listed
corn was brightly smiling back to the
warm rays of the sun, and the quiet of
Sabbath afternoon was only broken by
the twitter of larks the cooling of doves
and companionable lowing of sleek
coated cattle: All nature seemed to
rejoice while humanity was taking a
needed rest.
