THE RIGHT KIND OF TALK.

Some time ago the Kansas City Live
Stock Indicator asked seven questions
tending to bring out the present con-
dition of the farming business and to
show whether or not it was depressed
and if so why. The publication OF
these questions naturally opened up a
fine field for the kickers and they failed
not to occupy it, filling the paper for
weeks with dolorous complainings.
Once in awhile, however, a letter ap-
peared in q very different key, and
among these the following from an
Iowa farm seems to us good enough to
justify reproductions:

1t is the verdict of four out Of five, or
even more of the farmers of the north
west, that it has beneficial effect upon

A KANSAS FARM.

There are plenty Of pretty, well-kept
farms in Allen county, but one Of the
best of them is that owned and occu-
pied by John 8. Martin, miles north
east of Moran. We visited it Tuesday,
driving out from Moran behind one of
Mr.. Martins swift steppers, and the
visit will be pleasant memory for a
long time. Two hundred and forty
acres Of gently rolling prairie, it was
few years ago. Two hundred and
forty acres Of corn and flax aud millet
and meadow, it is now. Corn that
will 60 60 bushels or thereabouts to the
acre; fax which, on sod, threshed out
bushels to the acre; millet, also on
sod, waist high and with. heads 14inches
long; meadow, only started this year,
but already thick set. And enclosing
some of these fields and bordered by
others lie a mile race track, for Mr..
Martin is an Arab In his love of horses
and is giving good deal Of attention
these days to breeding and training
them. He has about 80, all told, and
they are quoted at prices that make a
poor mans head swim. Here is a
sucking colt, for example, that Mr..
Martin bought the other day from a
neighbor for S125. And close to it is a
slab-sided old mare that..will be worth
S., 900 if she rears another colt that will
be as swift as her present 2-year-old
daughter. Then there are "Jay Leon
ard" and Fashion" and "Jumbo"
and "Dolly B" who are all in training
and who are worth more money than
country editor would know how to
carry. Besides Mr.. Martins horses,
three or four others belonging to Mr..
G. G.; Mapes, of Anderson county,
have been there for month past get
ting in shape for the fall Fairs, 30
things have been lively.
Space is limited this week SO We
must cut short th .se observations and
be content with suggesting that any
one who loves horses and likes to see a
well-kept farm would find much pleas
ure in visit to Mr.. Martins.
