best results The educated and unedu.
Gated red man will be seen side by side.

No healthy person need fear any dan
gerous consequences from an attack Of
la grippe if properly treated. It is much
the same as severe cold and requires
precisely the same treatment. Remain
quietly at home and take Chamberlain
Cough Remedy as directed for severe
cold and prompt and complete recovery
is sure to follow. This remedy also coun-
teracts any tendency Of la grippe to re-
suit in pneumonia. Among the many
thousands who have used it during the
epidemics Of the past two years we have
yet to learn of single case that has not
recovered or that has resulted in ppeu-
monia. IS and so cent bottles for sale by

Another California Industry.

California is not content with pro-
ducing her own wines, but is becoming
ambitious to grow her own corks. The
wonderful climate of the country makes
almost every kind Of culture possible,
and that the proposed step is prac-
ticable is shown by the evidence Of
many tall and vigorous cork oak now
growing in various localities in the
state. A considerable quantity of cork
bark of the finest velvety quality, the
product Of Chico property, was re-
Gently sold in the San Francisco mar
ket. In Amador county is a cork tree
raised from an acorn planted some
thirty-two years ago, the bark Of which
Is Of the very best quality Of velvet
cork" It would appear that the soil
and climate of California are better
adapted to the growth of cork oak even
than those of Spain and Portugal That
few among the earlier settlers in Calf
fornia may live to see the production Of
cork as an article Of manufacture and
commerce attain any considerable de-
gree of Importance may be true, but It
is equally beyond dispute that it is the
duty Of the present generation to plant
the seed that posterity may reap the
harvest. From this point of view e is
now suggested that the state, thro -gh
its legislative and executive authority.
shall take early action in the matter 81
fostering the. planting and cultivation
of the cork tree.

Farming in Western Kansas.


Western Kansas so greatly depopula-
ted in 1889 and 1890 on account OF drouth
and consequent crop failures, is rapidly
filing up again. An Intelligent and
thrifty class of settlers are coming in and
buying claims that we're abandoned by
their more shiftless and improvident
predecessors, who were obliged to leave
the country because they had not the
means to sustain themselves through a
brief season of adversely. The new popu-
lation is mostly native of the United
States. and not smsn proportion is COM
posed of young people who were born or
reared on farms in the eastern counties OF
the state. In starting in their new homes
the settlers are comfortably established
in good houses and have the means to
work with which their less fortunate
predecessors had not. One or two seasons
Of drouth or other adversely incident to
the settlement and development OF all
new countries will not therefore dis
courage them or cause them to leave their
farms. As the saying is in Kansas. They
have come to stay.
The experience of the Mennonites and
other Russians in Kansas furnishes con-
elusive proof that farming, taken one
year with another, may be as proitably
and successfully carried on in what was
once known on the map as the "Great
American Desert" as in any other Sec
time of the United States. These people
began to settle in Kansas as early as 1873.
Some located as far west as Ellis county,
which was then on the frontier, and farm
ing there was regarded as a doubtful ex-
pertinent. But they were skilled In agri-
culture, and, patient, frugal and possessed
of little means, were prepared to take the
bad with the good. They suffered crop
failures in the beginning just as the
western settlers suffered in 1889 and 1890.
But from the abundance in their granaries
and their store of money saved from
more prosperous seasons they were able
to live and look hopefully forward to
another planting time. They have thus
prospered and grown rich.
The experience of the Russians will be
the experience of the new people who are
taking possession of western Kansas.
They may suffer from drouth or hot winds
occasionally, but people, especially young
people who have their lives before them
may take the chance of an occasional crop
failure in a new region, where as was
proved in 1891, the year following the
worst drouth Kansas has ever known, the
harvest of one acre will pay the price OF
five acres. Such enormous results are
probably unheard of in any other agri-
cultural region in the civilized world.
Men have but to exercise ordinary intel
igence, and be frugal, economical and
provident, and success will as certainly
come to them as it has come to the Rus
sian settlers. And as the country grows
older, the raw soil broken and placed in
cultivation, or planted in orchards and
forests, droughts will be less frequent,
and the land which in favorable seasons
is now as productive as any in Kansas
will be equally as valuable.-Kansas CITY

No OTHER object in the domain Of SCI
entiic research promises greater adj
vantage to the human race than the
discovery of a cheap method Of making
or reducing aluminium. The metal is
one of the most abundant and general
ly distributed in nature and would be
invaluable for great variety of gen.
eral purposes except for its cost. Bare
~ thirty years ago it was manufactured
only as curiosity to laboratory expert
mentors and was worth about eight dol
lars an ounce. For years little advance
wasmade in manipulating the refractory
ores containing it, but recently several
improved methods have been discov-
cred. and now it is claimed the metal
can be produced for fifty cents pound.
This is a great advance and gives reason
to hope for still better results.

The recent decision by an Illinois
court that the alien land law of that
state is unconstitutional is one of great
Importance. The grounds of the de-
eision, one of which is that the law is
in conflict with federal treaties, seem
to imply that any law forbidding the
requirement Of land by alien landlords
would be unconstitutional. The case will
60 to thesupreme court of the state, but
there are reasons for believing that the
decision will be sustained. All laws of
this kind have been Systematically
evaded by the formation Of American
joint stock companies, in which foreign
holders take stock; so that while the
land is owned by an American COM
pany, the company is owned by Eng
Hsh capitalists.
