600. 900 bushels. It Is safe to say
that Of tho so, 600. O0O, 900 bushels OF
corn and wheat now on hand, the
proceeds from 81, OO0, 600 bushels viii
be applied to. the discharge Of mort
gage Indebtedness. The growing
wheat never gave better promise 81
this period of the season than it does
now, the cool weather Of the past four
weeks being just what vas needed.
Eastern people can never realize
the wonderful recuperative power of
this state until they visit it and ex-
anime the soil and almost phenomenal
crop it produces with little more than
one-tenth of the state in cultivation.
Here is an instance Characteristic Of
the state and the possibilities of the
Kansas farmer. The other day q
Harvey county farmer and stock rails
er sold forty-seven head of cattle for
$2,762. With this money he wiped
out all his Indebtedness, leaving his
farm free of mortgage, and stocked
with sixty head of young cattle and
300 head of hogs. Among other
things which have good deal to do
with the condition of the farmers in
Kansas, is the farmer himself.
Taken altogether, therefore, from
the agricultural point of view, there is
much to encourage the Kansas people
and good prospects that all the delin-
quent and accruing interests will be
paid promptly, and in very many in
stances the entire mortgage discharg-
ed from the farm before another
year.

Lassar's Treatment OF Badness.

A"Ss"A AAC0SAACAS 70 410A0u009e
The treatment recommended by Lassar,
of Berlin, for alopecia pityrodes and alo-
pecia areata has been attended with some
brilliant results. According to DR.. Graet-
zers article in the Therapeutische Monats-
chrift, but few cases resist the treatment,
and after few applications the downy
sprouts may be seen. The following pro-
cedure is to be repeated daily:
l. The scalp should be lathered we'll
with strong tar soap for ten
minutes. 2. This lather is to be removed
with luke warm water, followed by colder
water in abundance; then the scalp is to be
dried. 3. A solution of bichloride of mer-
curry one to 800, the menstruum being equal
parts of water, glycerine and cologne or
alcohol, to be rubbed ON. 4. The scalp ID
then rubbed dry with solution contain
ing betanaphtol, one part, and absolute
alcohol, 200 parts. s. The final
step in the process is an amounting OF
the scalp with an unguent containing
two parts of salicylic acid, three parts OF
tincture of benzoin, and 100 I arts of meats
foot oil. This treatment should be per
sisted in for a period of six weeks or longer
Lassar, who, by the way. is the secretary
general to the International congress o.
this year, has done much to awaken thu
profession from the lethargic state int,
which it had fallen in regard to the treat
ment of alopecia. He is reported to hav
treated a thousand cases in the manner de
scribed.-New York Medical Journal.

There was a man who was cared for BY the

plans drawn for what he said was an archless
span from Halifax to Liverpool. When the
bridge was completed. he said, there would be
no difficulty in getting the bonds on the market
coiored man wanted railroad constructed
from Sumter. Sc, to Denver. Col. to keep
the colored people at the latter place from

Among the vast army OF male cranks il an
old man who lives in fredericksburg Va. Now
and then he comes here to procure the assist
ance Of the police force and tho army to rout
a band OF Indians under the leadership OF the
great chief Black Hawk. He imagnes that the
Indians are going to take possession OF his
native place, and it is not an easy matter TO get
him to return. The last time he was here he
would not return without police or army es-
cort. Sanitary Officer Frank produced n blank
telegram and pretended that it gave intorma-
ton concerning the routing of the Indians and
calling for his tthe crank's) presence a. once.
Then the man could not reach the train for
home fast enough.
