cannot exist without a
healthy Liver. When the
Liver is torpid the Bow

in the stomach undi-

ensues; a feeling Of lassi-

nervousness indicate how
the whole system is de-

About Potatoes.

The potato is one of the most import
ant of cultivated plants. and in universal
cultivation in temperate parts of the
globe. 1t is a native of mountain dis
tricts of tropical and subtropical America,
probably from Chilli to Mexico. but there
is some question as to where it is really
indigenous. The American Agriculturist
is responsible for the statement that
Humboldt doubted if it had ever been
found truly wild but subsequent trav-
elers Of high scientific reputation ex-
press themselves thoroughly satisfied
Maize and potatoes are the two greatest
gifts which America has given to the rest
of the world.
The potato has been cultivated in
America and its tubers used for food
from times long anterior to the discovery
of America by Europeans. 1t seems to
have been first brought to Europe by the
Spaniards from the neighborhOOd of
Quito in the sixth century. No
more important event of lis kind
has ever taken place than the
introduction Of potato culture into
Great Britain and other European
countries Ii was long called ''Batatas,
or sweet potato. which is the tiber or
plant meant by English writers down to
the middle of the seventeenth century.

TO PURIFY POLITICS.

The Times asks for a system of voting
that is being advocated by ballot refOrmers
all over the world We have not claimed
that there is much corruption in our cleo
tiOns in Kansas But there is some In
leaveuW0rth county it has been complain
ed by olficeholders that it costs more to be
elected than the salary for the entire term
IS worth. One officer, whose salary is
$1,000 per Year claims that his election
cost him SIP 600. This large amount of
money could not have been spent legiti-
mately. In some way large part of it
must have been used to corrupt voters.
The foregoing from the Leavenworth
Times is in response, in part, to a little
squibin the EAGLE a day or two ago, in
which reference was made to the cute
ness Of the Times in advocating ballot
reform in Kansas. The EAGLE is not
prepared to controyert the Times state

persuaded that there is much truth

FACTS FOR FARMERS.
Rotation of Crops.

Much has been written, saws the Amer
lean Agriculturist, on the subject of
crop rotation, but we think It's import
ance is not fully understood One of the
most popular systems of rotation IN the
winter wheat sections of this country Is:
First, corn or potatoes; second. oats or
barley; third, wheat; fourth. clover or
grass, followed again by corn. Here we
have three grain crops in succession.
But the rotation is so convenient that it
Is not easy to improve upon it. The
most serious objection TO it is that it will
not clean land as rapidly as is desired by
a farmer who starts on a neglected, run
down, weedy, farm. II the land is clean
TO start with it can be kept clean. But
there Is good deal of land where, in
stead of oats or barley, an occasional
summer fallow is thoroughly done, and
wheat is sown in the fall with timothy
grass at the same time with the wheat
when timothy is sure crop and clover
in the spring, we can hope to get large
crop OF wheat, and, what is of no less
consequence, we have every reason TO
expect heavy crop OF grass and clover
and there is nothing that cleans and
enriches land like a smothering crop of
grass and clover. As before said, when
land is once clean and in good condition
the rotation we have mentioned will en-
able a good farmer to keep it clean.

GERMANY AND ENGLAND IN AFRICA.

Major Wissman seems to have stolen a
march upon the British, in securing the
services of Emin Pasha, and it is now de-
clared that, backed by German money,
and German men, Emin viii make an
attempt to secure his lost province in the
Congo country for Germany. While it
does look as if the Germans have secured
a long start, it does not follow that they
will win, for Emin's province must be
captured, and in the role of peaceful
governor Emin is far more capable than
he viii be, acting as an armed invader.
Then, again, between the province and
the German possessions, extends the
powerful native kingdom of Uganda. If
the British government should secure
the services of Henry N. Stanley and
supply him with sufficient money, Emin
would probably never again enter his
province save as a guest of the ruler.
The rivalry between Great Britain and
Germany has 50 far been friendly, but
there now seems to be some trouble brew
ing.
Both nations are engaged IN land
grabbing and jealousie5 viii be unques-
excited by the contests which
seem to be inevitable.
We shall probably hear in a short
while some piece Of news from the Brit
ish side, equally as startling as the
of Emin's services by the
Germans. and it may be a close and in
innate alliance between the British and
the Kingdom of Uganda. News of
some sort we viii have undoubtedly.

SOUTH AMERICAN TRADE.

The establishment Of European COM
mercial supremacy in South America
was largely brought about by the devel-
Opment Of the shipping interests of the
maritime nations of the world. They,
fostered, cared for, aided and supported,
their commercial marine, and thus
manned merchant fleets 10y which the
commerce of empires was captured and
retained. Our civil war marked the
turning point in the substitution Of
steam for sail power in the transporta
ton Of ocean freights. Note how quickly
the English, for example. took advantage
Of this change. One instance of such
British business shrewdness viii suffice.
1t was in 1865 that the first British mail
steamer ran into Montevideo, Uruguay,
from Liverpool, and the British govern
ment paid the company that sent that
steamer a subsidy. At the end of twenty
years-in 1S65-there were 618 European
steamers, with tonnage of over 900, 900
entering the same port. At the end of
1888 that tonnage had risen to more than
1850, 900, and there were on an average,
three European steamers a day entering
that port The United States was doing
nothing to restore its commercial marine,
or 10 aid its long-neglected shipping in
terests and the natural result followed
The European merchants secured the
trade Of Uruguay, and the struggle
which the United States is now making
for share in the commerce of that
country is a part of the penalty which
must be paid for this hitherto disregard
for our own commercial interests.

until now they had the least amount Of
such that they had had on hand for the
past two or three years. Collections
We're reported from fair to good, one
bank reporting fully s., coo collections
this season for eastern parties.
Speaking of the liquidation of notes.
one cashier said that about month ago
they had twenty-seven notes paid off in
one day. One bank reported about
s., 900 loaned out for a short time to
feeders. Another said he noticed a de-
crease in the amount deposited by far
mer5, but found they were investing In
stock, principally cattle, which Is GER
tainly very wise.
Few new chattel mortgages on per-
sonal security loans are being made
Since November /, 1899, to date. one
bank has paid from S35, 900 to $40. 600
per month over its counters to farmers
in payment for their stock and grain
marketed.
Two cashiers called our attention to
another fact. viz: That in the past three
or four months many farmers had come
in and bought drafts. remarking that
they were going to remove the blanket
clean OF their farm" Another bank
which runs a farm loan department said
that several farmers had come in and
paid $500 more on their farm loans,
others lifting their loans entirely. They
sent out man week or so ago to see
parties whose farm loans were coming
due. -Four informed the gentleman that
they had the money ready to pay their
loan when it came due, and one made
application for a renewal Of his loan.
