A WORD TO FARMERS.
THE MIDLAND ELEVATOR co. J
KANSAS CITY, Mo-, July l, 1891. :

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, July |, 1891. :
To the Raisers and Handlers of Grain:
In order that our customers may
either store or handle grain rs they
may wish, we have provided olrs elves
with abundant facilities for storage
transferring and buying.
At our COUNTRY HOUSES we will be
prepared at all times to bay cash grain
by the wagon-load. At our ELEVATORS
we will receive grain for storage. either
by the wagon or car load, issuing re-
ceipts for each lot at reasonable rate,
which makes the holding of grain pos
Asible to the farmer at a much less ex-
Fpense than ne can store it on the farm,
and INSURES to him the WEIGHT
and GRADE.
Our principal Elevators are under
STATE SUPERVISION and the State
officials have full charge of the WEIGH
ING and INSPECTION.
By placing grain IN store and obtain
ing receipt it enables the owner to
dispose OF it at any time by simply de-
ivering the receipt to the party to
whom he makes the sale, and thereby
enables him to TAKE ADVANTAGE
OF ANY SUDDEN CHANGE IN
THE MARKETS at any time he may
choose,
We guarantee to the holder of re-
ceipt that he shall be delivered the
QUANTITY and QUALITY called for,
which relieves him OF all risk of loss on
weights or grades while in store.
We will attend to FIRE INSURANCE
if desired. and can always obtain for our.
customers the lowest rates.
We are also prepared at all times to
buy storage grain; and in case holders
should wish cash advances on their re-
ceipts, we can undoubtedly arrange
with them.
We think the benefits to be derived
from such a system will be seen readily
by all. and should further information,
be desired we will be pleased to furnish
it. Very truly,

A half hours reading of northern re-
publican papers would convince the
most skeptical that the south had no
notion of taking stock in the peoples
party. On the other hand half hours
reading Of the leading southern demo-

these same skeptics that the southern
bosses were scared most to death over
the matter. Already these southern

A Question for English Lawyers.

A correspondent raises the question
whether retired judge can practice at
the bar, and goes on to say: "The point
is an interesting one, and II report
speaks truly it is not unlikely TO be
raised by the action of Mr.. Justice
Hawkins, who, on his retirement next
month, it is said, will resume his old
role of advocate. There is no precedent
for an English judge appearing again
at the bar after retirement, but it is not
an uncommon thing for an Indian or
colonial judge to resume practice when
he has left the bench. These officials,
however, are i'm an entirely different
position to their English brethren, and
their example counts for very little.
"The absence of an English precedent
is much more to the purpose, and it
would probably be considered conclusive
by the bar committee If not by the
Judges before whom the question might
be raised. Anyway, it would be decid-
eddy unfair for a judge who had received
handsome pension to enter into compe-
tition with his struggling professional
brethren who had yet career to make,
to say nothing of the awkwardness OF
the situation which would be created. -

Twenty Pound Salmon FOR n Cent Apiece.
The present wonderful run of salmon
has SO glutted the market that for some
time these silver sided beauties have
been selling at five cents apiece, but the
price took tumble yesterday and sew
cral fishermen sold boat load Of fine
salmon, weighing about twenty pounds
each, at the pitiful price of one cent
apiece. One cent for a twenty pound
silver salmon, the finest quality of that
excellent fish, is the lowest price perhaps
that a food fish ever sold for in this o,
any other country, but salmon are so
plentiful that people do not know what
to do with them.
1t is estimated that enough fish could
be taken there in one day to fill 1000
barrels. Fishermen say they can make
big money by selling salmon at cent
apiece to the canneries if they will only
buy all they can catch. One man caught
fourteen with a gill hook attached to a
hoe handle yesterday, and another man
claims to have found them in such num-
beers in shallow water in the .Dungeness
that he threw them out with pitchforS
and soon got fish enough to last for a
month.-Fort Townsend Leader.

Sharks in Long Island Sound.

An unusual number of large sharks
was reported during September in Long
Island and Fishers Island sounds. To
these the name of man eater is generally
applied. AS matter of fact, however,
the true man eating shark (Carcharodon
carcharias) is rarely seen on our coast.
This species grows to length of twen-
ty-five feet and to the weight of one ton,
being surpassed in size only by the bask-
ing shark. 1t is relative Of the enor-
nous shark whose teeth occur fossil in
the phosphate beds of South Carolina.
Any shark measuring nine or ten feet in
length is liable to be called man eater,
and not without warrant, for all of them
will attack man with slight provocation
or when suffering from hunger.-Forest
