Coming to Western Kansas,
G. A. HoAR,
County Clerk.

They are coming from the deserts of the
dusty east, where to raise stunted turnip
gives the prospect of a feast, where the
farms are made of gravel and they pillow
with dynamite. Where the chattel mort
gage sings its dirges day and night they
are coming in their wagons, they are
coming on the trains, they are coming from
the regions where they struggle long in
vain; they are coming from the hall, they
are coming from the cabin, they are COM
ing to Kansas where there is plenty for
them all. They are coming from the
southland, they are coming from the
north, from the valley and from the mount
aims, they in droves are coming forth; they
are coming with their husbands. they are
coming with their wives, they are coming
with their hammers, with their needles
and their knives, with their harrows and
their planters and their pencils and their
guns. they are coming with their fathers
and their sons. They are coming stout
and slender, they are coming short and
tall, they are coming to Kansas where
there's plenty for them all. Where you
needn't dig potatoes with sabre or dirk,
where the rain is badly needed, then the
rain gets in its work; where the rivers
mourn and murmur on their journey to
the sea, where the breezes tackle corn
stalks big as fences on the lea, where
savages at one time wandered in their
search for human hair, while the hoarse
and bowling war-cry hoated on the sum-
mer air, where hundred braves would
answer to the chieftain's battle call, they
are coming to Kansas where there's plenty
for them all. Where the savage used to
yearn for crop of hair now the farmer
takes his produce to the nearest county
fair; and the grain is daily growing where
the greasy wigwam stood, where he burned
the wailing captive, now the poultry search
for food; and the people who are coming
to this pleassntest of chimes, show happy
knack of keeping up with the progress of
the times, they will find country boom
ing from the springtime to the fall, when
they land in Kansas, where there's
plenty for them all.

Board met pursuant to adjournment.
All members present.
John H. March stated that the lots in
block 10, Wa-Keeney, were numbered
just the opposite way from other blocks
in the city, consequently his lots, on east
side of the block, were assessed higher
than those in west part OF same block
(vacant lots.) The board ordered rates
reduced on east side, and raised on west
side, so that lots should be same as lots
in other blocks in same vicinity.
Several parties appeared during the
day and said taxes were too high, but on
looking over rolls and assessors books it
was found that property in each neigh
borhood seemed to be valued in proper
ton to adjacent lands; therefore, assess
ment must stand.
Board adjourned sine die.

By local application, as they can otreach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure Deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an inhamed condition of the
mucus lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube gets inhamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed Deafness is the
result, and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its nor

forever; nine cases out of ten are caused

tected lands-is to speak with moderation
Inc winter, while extremely mild, has
Deen bad for this cereal, especially in the
open country. The little snow that came
mostly blew off these fields; and the freez-
ing and thawing, while not very severe at
any time, have been very damaging, and
over wide areas, disastrous. This region,
as is well known, is oneof the richest por-
lions OF the West; and the failure of any
staple crop must be looked for in some
thing other than in the lack of fertility
must be looked for in the morbid vicissi-
tudes Of the seasons, or in the unwisdom
Of man.
While the majority of the farmers who
Will suffer the loss of this crop upon all
these miles upon miles OF farms will, very
likely, and very naturally, attribute it to
the former OF these causes, little careful
observation will serve to show that the
latter cause lies at the foundation of most,
if not all, of their failures.
Two causes have conspired to spoil the
growing plants lack Of protection and
lack Of drainage. Here and there may be
seen field protected by small grove Of
timber-mere saplings, perhaps is
green and promising; and occasionally a
field that partly protects itself by it's roll
ing surface, is fairly good, except the more
exposed ridges. This latter has the ad-
vantage of drainage as we'll as of some
protection.
Something could be done on those fat
lands in the way of drainage by blowing in
narrow strips-not over two rods in width.
This would give not only drainage, but
q measure of protection also, as the snow
would more of it lie on fields so handled.
Thousands of acres in Canada and North
ern Vermont are plowed in strips not over
one rod wide. There it is the necessity
that is the foundation of the custom. Let
these level-land farmers take the hint.
The necessity for timber-be protection
is becoming more and more apparent, as
it is more imperative, as the Natural for
ests disappear.
If, by some constituted authority, ar in
telligent committee could be sent into
these counties to observe the state OF the
growing wheat crop, with instructions to
report as to the various conditions under
which fields were found, green and thriv-
ing or dead, or greatly injured, the truth
of the above alleged causes for the wide
spread failure might be made to more full
ly appear; and also as having the prestige
of official authority.
The Farmers Institutes in some of the
States are doing great work. But the two
questions that should dwarf all others, in
the writer's opinion, are those of drainage
and protection.

WA-KEKNKY, KAN, June 4, 1883.
Board met pursuant to adjournment
All members present.
A. T. Greenwood asked to have tax for
the year 1883 RENTED on lots, In block
"a, Wa-Keeney. Mr.. Greenwood claimed
that improvements to the amount OF two
hundred dollars were assessed against
this lot, when the fact is the lot is entirely
unimproved. Investigation showed that
G. F. Mcknight and wife owned lots 8. 8
and 10, in block "a, when the assessment
for 1888 was made and when taxes be-
came due, and that there was good
house on the lots, but that the house was
really on lots and 10, instead OF on lot 8,
and board decided that as the valuation
on the three lots and improvements was
not too high, they could not remit any
part of the tax, but ordered that i'm
provements be assessed against 9 and 10
for 1889, instead of against lot 8.
Mrs. Kate Stonex asked to have the
valuations on her lands and town lots
made lower, as taxes in 1883 were too
high. The board examined valuations,
and finding them to be as low as those on
other lands and lots in same vicinity,
decided they could do nothing.
Thomas Fike, of Collyer, asked to have
the value of his personal property for the
for the year 1888 made lower. He said
that although he had signed the state
ments, he was mistaken in amounts taken
by the assessor, and they were entirely
too high. He therefore asked the board
to correct his list and make rebate on tax.
Board decided it was too late to do any
thing with the matter.
The county surveyor made a request
that the field notes of Trego county be
furnished for use of the connty: This
matter had been before the board num-
Der of times before, and the members of
the board being convinced that the field
notes are badly needed, decided to have
the county clerk order complete set for
use of the county.
Balance of the day was consumed dis
cussing various tax matters.
Board adjourned to meet June 5, 1889.
