ONE day a good Chicago father
went home to wonder what had be-
come of his son. The boy, a lad of
Is years. had left the house and no
one could account for him. He was
of a restless, rowing, but not vicious
disposition. In time his parents
learned he had shipped as a marine
on the man-of-war Michigan. He
had found an adult friend who swore
the boy was an orphan and that he
(the swearer) was guardian; that he
relinQuished all claim to the lad
and so the enlistment was perfected,
and Chicago boy of good family was
in service until he come Of age. The
father and mother took steps to
prove their claim to the Yenturesome
young fellow, and will appeal to the
Secretary of the Navy to discharge
their son. And right there rises a
question: What are you going to do
with boy who wants to run away?
Boys have the itch of advent ure in
them in proportion as they are worth
anything, and if their reading and
cOmpanionship have been wisely
chosen it may be a good thing to let
! them have their way. A healthy boy
will hardly rail- into ways of wrong.
doing. even if left to his own re,
sources. The thousands of orphans
who have achieved honorable success
prove that. They will meet the
world, learn its ways, find the grove
in which nature intended them q
run, and when they arrive at man.
hood they are better equipped fol
manly duties than the pampered sons
OF wealth could possible be. But
there is another view of it. Most
boys think they know more thar
father and mother put together. AND
they do about some things Give
boy his liberty when he pines for it
and three cases out of five he vii

Mohler on Wheat Prospects.


Correspondents of the state board of
agriculture report dry weather in all
portions of the state during September,
and in consequence wbeat-sowing has
been greatly retarded. In cases where
ground was plowed early, July and
August, when in good condition, there
has been sufficient moisture to terminate
the seed, but the dry and warm weather
has been unfavorable TO its growth, and
in some cases the plant is reported as
suffering.
Many farmers whose ground was pre-
pared and ready in the early part OF
September, postponed seeding, waiting
for cooler weather and moister atmoss
phere.
Other farmers, whose blowing was
DELAYED, have since been unable to put
their ground in proper condition and
seeding has been necessarily delayed.

STOCK AND FARM.

Ellinwood Advocate: A farmer told
us this week that a great deal of the
early wheat was already dying from the
effects of the dry weather.
North Topeka item: John Griffith,
who lives fifteen miles northeast of
town, marketed sixty five hogs, all told,
weighing on an average 375 pounds
each.
ElDorado Advocate: A thousand
head of Arizona cattle have been dis
tributed among our prosperous cattle
feeders of northern Butler to be fed
this winter.
ElDorado Republican: The writer
counted nineteen ricks of alfalfa on
John Stones place, as he came up on
the train. Mr.. Stone has cut three
crops from the field this year, and it is
ready to cut again. He says it makes
two tons to the acre at each cutting, or
in other words eight tons per year. 1t
is worth at least So per ton.
Cedar Vale Star: James Meadows,
of CIoverdale, sold couple of loads of
wheat at SO cents. His crop of over
100 acres only averaged about seven
bushels, and to haul it ten miles and
get only SO cents means a dead loss to
him and considerable one. We have
heard of Kansas farmers buying corn.
What is the matter with feeding wheat !?
Corn is selling at 80 to 80 cents and
oats at 20 to % cents. Wheat is GER
tainly cheaper feed than either.

Not drop of liquor is sold in the town.
Even the drug stores have gone out of
the business. When their liquor per-
mits expired, few weeks ago, they an
nounced that they did not wish them
renewed. and there is not drug store
in the county that has authority to sell,
SO that it is impossible to get it even for
medical purposes. The fact is, the peO-
pie do not care for liquor. The desire
for it has gradually lessened, and were

whether it would do enough business to
