During the year ending July 81,
1889, there was shipped out of the
southern states to foreign countries
raw cotton of the value of 1896, 649, 345.
During the same period there was i'm
ported into the United States cotton
goods and fabrics of the value Of $l16,-
29S, S97. Just why the free-trader
would have the products of the farm
sent to Europe to furnish material for
manufacturing goods to be brought
back into this country is beyond COM
prehension. 1t is on a par with the
farmer who sells his hogs to the ship
per for three and one half cents a
pound and then buys his family pork
from the merchant at 16 cents pound.

HANDSOME ION.

An Important Addition to Kansas

His Pedigree aud Description A
Horse of Much Promise
Mr.. w. b. Webster, of L. G. Webster
& Son, prop'r Orchard Hill Farm, Val
ley Falls, Kas., passed through Cleve,
land on Monday last on his way home
with one of the richest bred stations
ever taken from the east just purchased
from Robert Steele, proprietor Cedar

1t was the Is hand mahogany bay horse

The farm lost by fire last year foul
of their best animals, among them the
stallion Evermond, 4556, 2:24I, by
Harold. Alb; LIST dam Eventide, the
dam of Ion, ABS. Ever mOnd had &C.
Quired such reputation in the west
the firm thought their patrons would
be better pleased with sire as neal
his breeding as possible, and in buying
Ion, ABS, Messrs. Webster have made
wise selection and no doubt &C.
cOmplished the object to letter,
First we will take Ion 443S, as to
breeding, and compare him on the
sire's side with his half-brother, Ever.
mOnd. Belmont, sire of Ion, and
Harold sire of EvermOnd, were by
father and son. HambletOnian, TO-
sire of Harold, and Alexander's Alb
dallah sire of Belmont: the latter must
be best, if there is anything in breed
ing on. Enchantress, the dam of Ear
old, never produced one that beat 2:30,
but is simply credited with Lakeland
Abdallah, sire of Geo. o., 2:26. Fol-
any further information of her, Tread
your answer in the stars"
Belmont's first dam was Belle, that
produced McCurdy's Hambletonian,
1924 (sirs Of McEwen, 2:253); Bicara
dam of Pancoast, 2:2l3) and grandam
of Mayenne (dam of Crescendo, 2:26il.
Belle was a producer, and her daughter,
grand daughter, and great-grand-
daughter were producers. Ion and
Eyermond were out of the same dam,
but as we consider Belmont better
bred horse than Harold, we must de-
clare Ion so much better than Ever
mond. Ion, ABS, is full brother to
Erin, 2:24a, and Erelong (sire of Sc
Long, 2:24i, and Fannette, 2:292); he
is Is hands high, weighs l25O lDs., was
foaled 1888, and is mahogany bay
He is a very smooth turned horse, clean
cut and looks a race horse; head fine,
plenty of depth and propelling power,
legs with plenty of the needful, and a
perfect set of feet. He is certainly a
worthy successor to his half-brother
and his purchasers have shown con-
clusively they intend to have nothing
but the best.-[Forest City Sporting.

without sending begging circulars all
over the state lodges that find it diff
cult sometimes to amply provide for
their sick and for their widows and Or
phans. We do not believe that there
is any obligation resting upon the Odd
Fellows of western and central Kansas
to contribute to the expenses of the
Grand Lodge which should be borne
by the citizens Of Topeka; and we hope
that if Topeka has not public spirit
enough to entertain 80 distinguished a
body as the Sovereign Grand Lodge of
I. o. o. F. of North America, that
she will not again have the cheek to
ask that any such body meet in her
midst. If Topeka wants the honors
let her bear the expenses, as she ought
to do, without grumbling.

TOpeka's Begging Act.

The citizens Of Topeka have be-
come so accustomed to receiving aid
for public enterprises in their city,
that they expect that when any public
gathering meets in their city the ex.
penses will be borne by the rest of the
state. The Sovereign Grand Lodge of
l. o. o. F. is to meet in Topeka in
September next. It was supposed by
all the lodges outside of the state CAPT
tai that it would be an honor to the
city which would be appreciated by her
citizens, to such an extent at least that
they would be willing TO bear the ne.
cessary expenses of holding the same.
If the Sovereign Grand Lodge had
honored any other city of Kansas by
selecting it as its place of meeting
there would be no demand upon outside
parties for assistance in defraying the
necessary incidental and other expenses
to holding the session. But Topeka
with her accustomed cheek has sent
out for aid to all of the lodges in other
parts of the state, soliciting an assess

near Valley Falls, Kas., the elegantly
bred trotting stallion, Ion, a recent
purchase from Robert Steele by 1. G.
Webster & Son. These gentlemen
went east with the purpose of looking
up a horse that would suit western
ideas. Kansas breeders attach as
much Importance to size and general
excellence as they do to pedigree. This
feeling is an expression of the univer-
sal law ofnsture, survival Of the fittest.
The fittest means the strongest physi-
