The early riser was out watering his

Then he noticed that the nozzle was
carelessly pointed in his direction.

he cried.
The early riser glanced down at the
nozzle and his face lit up with
pleasure.

The funny man tried to walk along

Then he got desperate, stepped off, and
started to run. The stream caught him
in the middle of the back.

MONEY IN HOG RAISING,

I
| keep up with the times cannot help seem Q
that there must be money in hog raising,
not only for the near future but for some
time to come. And being thus advised
they should prepare to engage in the in
dustry-if not already prepared-intelli-
gently and with view to securing the
best results. They ought to know that
suitable hog pasture, with a little corn
| added, makes good growth of young
hogs and fine pork in the end. This
thing has been settled in the affirmative
by all who have tried it. a hog weighing
seventy-five to one hundred pounds in
the spring will double and often treble
its weight by the next winter on pastur-
age alone. Still it is not advisable to
conline hogs strictly to pasturags for best
results; a little corn thrown to them oc-
casionally by way of variety will facil-
itate growth and development. But if
there had to be a confine to either the
pasture or corn, the pasture would be
preferable.
Asto the kind of pasturage that is best
adapted to hogs there may be some diff
ference of opinion, though it is generally
conceded that clover and alfalfa are the
best. Clover has not been introduced
into this section to sufficient extent to
test its merits fully and thoroughly,
but in other states and sections
it has been so tested aud has proven en-
tirely satisfactory both for pasturage for
hogs and cattle and for winter feed for
the latter. Alfalfa has been more ex-
tensively introduced in this portion of
the state and it has given the fullest
satisfaction, proving one of the most re
liable and profitable crops known to the
catalogue of agriculture.
Farmers who have not hitherto en-
gagged in that branch of agriculture need
not for one moment hesitate to wade
into hog raising. The hog crop is one
in which, at present, over production
would be impossible, for the world is
open to our pork trade, and all the
world is eating pork. The demand for
a high grade of beef bids fair to run the
low grades entirely out of the general
market, and when this has happened
beef will rule so high as to be more an
article of luxury than common food.
The masses will find substitute in
pork, and somebody must raise it for
them. So, farmers, go in and win Oh
pork raising without corn, or, at least,
without much corn. There is money
for you in the business.

Democrats out and ascertain if they were
really in earnest in their proposals for

in these columns a basis of fusion be-
tween the two followings has been
agreed upon in Minnesota. Now comes
Senator PETER with a plan of campaign
for Kansas this year. Here is his scheme
given in his own language, if he is cor
rectly quoted:
"You Democrats know you can't carry
Kansas for the electoral ticket, even if
we should openly fuse with you, for
the former Republicans would bolt the
ticket; we will admit that we want to
fuse but dare not; we will further admit
that we have no use for the electoral
ticket, nor have we any show of electing
our president. 1t lies between you and
the Republicans. aud it lies verv close.
Ii the Republicans are beaten in Kansas
the Democrats will have the president
and the patronage. We Alliance men
will put up a wooden electoral ticket.
you Democrats vote for it, and we will
take the county and state offices our
selves, giving you the postoffices and
things as they come"

THE GRIP.

Sol Miller, the venerable vet sinewy
editor of the Kansas Chief, had an ex-
perience with the grip recently, and
while not serious what he had of it,
taken in connection with what he has
observed in others seems to have given
him pretty good idea of what it is. His
opinion of the grip is that while it don t
amount to much of itself, its mischief
lies largely in other ailments that is sets
a-going. Here is Dir. Miller's size-up of
the affection:
1t is a fermenter of disturbance. by
prOdding up the rough elements. 1t is
an anarchist, that excites the vicious
classes to action. 1t is a revolutionist.
that causes discomfort to arouse and or
ganize. 1t is a walking delegate, that
ferments a general strike. 1t is a Paul
Revere. that gallops around raising the
country. 1t is an Alliance organizer.
that assemblies the DISCONTINUED, the
sour and the disgruntled, puts them I'M
der oath, and sets them to mischief. The
grip Is a social cuss. Ii likes company.
One of Josh Whitccmb RiIey's poems, en-
titled Charley Burk's in Town. tells Of
III town was always a signal for the bows

The grip is ''Charlev Burk. 1t gathers

KANSAS PAYING OUT.

L rom tEe hdnS6S lily odZelLc-
Superintendent Proter's latest bulletin
shows that Enthusiastically the mortgage
Indebtedness of Kansas IS decreasing.
He finds from the official records of Kan
saS that the amount of real estate mort
cages in force on January /, 1890, was
1913, 146, S26, a decrease in the previous
year of $40, $50, SO. The superintendent
says in his reprt:
Relative to population, the tendency of
debt in Kansas was strongly upward from
1850 TO 1887 and afterward strongly down
ward but the downward tendency did not
have the effect of checking the growth of
existing debt in relation to population IN
til 1890. when the relative amount fell be-
low that of 1855, as well that of lSS9. -
In 1887 the average amount of real
estate mortgage debt incurred to each
individual OF Kansas was S16. In the
following year this decreased to $52; and
in 1899 it fell to $40-a lower figure than
for six wears.
In 1887. so the census report says,
mortgage was recorded for every eleven
persons in the state, but in 1888 the num-
Der increased To fifteen, and in 1885
the last year for which the superintend-
ent has obtained staiistics-there was
only one mortgage recorded for every
twenty-five persons. an improvement so
far as numbers are concerned of % per
cent. in two years.
According to Superintendent Porter's
report the average debt on moTtgaged
acre IS lower Kansas than IN any OF the
three western states which he reports IN
this bulletin. being $3.50 for Illinois,
S9.I7 for Iowa and SIS for Kansas.
Kansas also makes a better showing
than the other states in the average
amount Of existing debt TO each assessed
acre, the average mortgage debt for
every assessed acre IN Kansas being only
S4.0j, while In Iowa it Is 81 % and IN
Illinois So
