From the doleful complainings that
have been sounded i'm our ears the past

parties which relied upon the discon.

of success, one would be led to believe
that Kansas is the only State in the
Union which has any mortgage in.

Atchison Champion: 1t is estimat-
ed now that the cash value Of the
crops ofKaDsas. this year will be fully
100 million dollars. And the figures
on which this estimate is made are
reasonable. The corn crop will not be
less than 275 million bushels, which
at an average Of 20 cents-a low price
would aggregate 55 million dollars.
The wheat crop aggregates at least
81 million bushels, and at an average
of so cents-s low price-would be II
million dollars. The oats crop Is at
least 50 million bushels, and at 15cents
per busheI would aggregate u million
dollars. The hay, barley. fax, pota.
toes and other crops will aggregate at
least 25 million dollars, thus making
a grand total Of lO4 million dollars as
the cash value of the farm crops Of
Ksns.s for 1889.

WINTER FLOWERS.

If we wish an abundance Of flowers
to eDliven our homes in winter. we
must begin our preparations soon. In
the first place let US lay down the fact
that no plant can flower profusely all
through the summer and amount to
much as q winter bloomer. Plants are
like living beings and must have their
seasons of rest and il they work all
summer they will rest in the winter.
Plants for the window should be low
and stocky with sufficiency Of later. .
al to insure large blooming surface.
And to get this plant must be kept
in q vigorous growing condition and
latereals pinched back. This should
be done as often as needed until late
in the fall. Plants that have been
glowing for some time in the same
pots should be re-potted into fresh
soil, soak the plant well by plunging
the pot into q bucket of water, now
gently knock out the plant and shake
as much of the old soil out from the
roots as possible. The soil should be
of loose and friable nature 80 that it
will not become hard by excessive
watering. The soil for roses can
scarcely be made too rich while Gera-
NUNS BegOnias and Abutilons seem
to thrive better in soil not so rich. The
soil for Abutilons should be I sand or
they will grow too spindling and not
flower go profusely. One Of the most
important items to look after in pot.
ting plants and one that is often neg
lected by the inexperienced Is to pro-
vide sufficient drainage In the pots.
Pots below four inches in size do not
need any drainage If the aperture at
the bottom is kept open.
As q general rule young Geranium
plants are better for winter blossoms
than old plants, but If old plauts are
used they should.be cut back severely
and the sooner it is done in this month
the better.
The four inch is the best sized pot
to use for young geraniums as they
will not bloom freely until the roots
fill the pot.
In my next I will give a list of
plants desirable for winter blooming,
mode of treatment ETC., etc.

A comparison of these figures shows
that Kansas has but one-third Of the
farm debt of Indiana, less than one.
half of Iowa and Michigan, and only
about one-sixth of the debt of Ohio,
considered one of the most prosperous
States in the Uniou. Kansas, it will
be observed, does not suffer by com.
parison with older and generally con.
sidered more prosperous States.
But it should be always remember.
ed that mortgage in the west, where
farm lands are rapidly appreciating in
value, is a vastly different thing from
mortgage in the east where the value
Of land is just as rapidly depreciating.
80 that the condition of Kansas lie
really much more favorable than even
the above figures would indicate. Con.
tinuing in a line of argument which
the REGISTER has often used, the
writer already quoted says:
A mortgage in the west, and partic-
ularly in Kansas is far from being an
evil or betokening poverty and dis.
tress on the part Of the borrower. There
are few mortgages which have been
placed because the farmers wanted the
money to live on. For the most part
they are placed because the man with
little capital buys farm and runs in
debt for implements wherewith to fur.
nish 1t or cattle to stock it. He ex-
poets to pay off the indebtedness in
one or two good seasons anc seldom is
disappointed; during the past two
years he has been, but better times are
ahead. The fact that mortgages re-
main that were placed on lands several
years ago is due to conditions which
could not be foreseeD and could not te
avoided.
In plentiful years the farmers have
frequently paid for their land with the
crop OF siugle year. In Dickinson,
Salina, Sedgwick, Sumner and other
counties it was frequently done. The
land has risen to too high q valuation
to make such thing possible now but
it shows that the thrifty settler is jus.
titled in borrowing enough money to
put his land into the best possible con-
dition. The three crop failures in 1856
-'S7-SS have kept mortgages at stand
still, but this year will show a large
reduction i'm their amount. A careful
estimate of the monetary value Of the
farm crops of Kansas for 1889, shows a
total product worth $3.50, ,0OO, 900
enough to wipe out the total farm
mortgage Indebtedness of the State.
Divide the total product by two and
we have $l25, ,0OO. 900 to apply to farm
mortgages, and Sl25 ZOO, 900 to employ
In Improvements on the farm, and to
use in the discharge Of other obligs.
tions. The marketing Of this years
crop will leave the Kansas farmer in a
condition financially that cannot fail
to be highly encouraging.
