The Rising Sun Elevator.

Messrs. A. L. Duyckinck & Co.,
have completed their grain elevator
at the lower railroad crossing and
have it in operation. Their grain
warehouse has been converted into
an elevator by additions and changes
and the power is furnished 10y an
eight horse power gas engine. The
gas is produced by the use ofgasoline
The power generated by the exploded
gas is utilized by a teavy fly wheel
which makes 800 revolutions per
minute. The momentum given this
wheel is sufficient to drive the
machinery which consists of large
fans, carriers and large rubber hose
The large bins for the storage Of
grain are provided with hopper
shaped bottoms by which they are
automatically emptied, The steel
bucket carriers convey the grain from
the bins aloft where it is passed
through the fans and scourers which
blow and screens out all the light
grain, trash and white caps and
scour or remove the "iuz" which
adheras to the germ ends of the
grain. 1t is surprising to see the
quantity of this fuz that is separated
from the wheat, which is greatly i'm
proved by the tanning and securing
process and given a much higher
grade in market.
After the grain is cleaned it is con,
veyed into bins on the second floor
by the carriers which empty it into
spouts that are so arranged. that the
grain can be deposited in any bin de.
sired by simply changing a paddle
in the spout. When the grain is to
be marketed box car is placed on
the siding and the grain conducted
into it by large flexible hose. BY
the aid of machinery one man can
handle as much grain in the same
time as four by the old method. and
do the work with greater ease, and
the grain is also put into a much
better condition for market
There are three large receiving
bins on the ground floor, the main
one being attached to new Fair
banks scale of the finest quality.
This bin will hold nearly 10000
pounds. The scale will weigh much
more. The weight is recorded on
the indicator and no mistakes can
occur as when a pencil and card is
nsed to record each draft Tho h.0s
are taken from the wagons and the
grain dumped through a small trap
hole in the floor into thu bin, and
when the load Is all in the scale
shows its weight on the indicator.
On Tuesday SO cent wheat of
superior quality was being discharged
from farm wagons into the big bin.
That is what hurts the farmer. No
one ever expected to see wheat at
that price, but the "gold standard"
is sure to put it still lower. The
"single gold standard" is "English
you know" whose policy is to supply
their operatives with cheap food
which enables them to produce cheap
goods by which Great Britain hopes
to monopolize the markets of the
world by the aid of her extensive
merchant marine. The old party
papers-of both parties-of this state
are unite in stuf1lng the farmers
with this English doctrine of "sngle

A comparison of former speeches

A comparison of former speeches
and declarations of congressman with
their present wabbling, indicates
they are being bought as fast as the
British gold can be counted out.
There is said to be a five million

That is enough to bny both old
parties and leave snug sum to
divide among the agents.
Maryland is blessed with a jew
congressman named Rayner who is

head. He fell to the floor mortal1y
wounded, and will die. While Tyler
was away from his Office for help the

into a corn field near by, where he was

about 8 o'clock Tuesday night and few
hundred dollars obtained. 1t is thought
the man shot here is the one who at

KANSAS AFFAIRS.
Democrats and Republicans Discourage
by Naggener,s WithdrannI.

by Waggener's Withdrawal.
Topeka, Kan, Feb. 27.-The anti
fusion Republicans and Democrats are
at sea over the sudden and unexpected
withdrawal of E. P. Waggener from
the senatorial race. The plans were all
laid to elect Waggener, but since he
withdrew, without even giving a word
of warning or notification, they feel very
sore and do not conceal it. Democrats
and Republicans charge that Martin has
made deal with representatives of the
Gould interests to secure Waggener's
withdrawal
A boom has been started for Colonel
Rossington, a Stalwart Democrat, for
senator. The Republican leaders say
they can get four or five Populist votes
for him. This, with the solid Republi-
can strength, will elect. They also
claim that the supreme court decision
knocking out the Populist house also
knocks out Martin, and that if all the
other acts of the alleged Populist house
are Illegal, Martin was not elected.
Therefore it will be easy to get several
votes from Populists, for a straight
Democrat, on the ground that the other
election was Illegal.
kilograms were received here Sunday
from leading Democrats in Washington
and New York, saying that Rossington,
if given Sc votes will be seated.
The Populists have agreed to respect
the supreme courts decision aud will
march into representative hall and take
their seats in the Republican house.

BIG PROFIT IN HOGS.
HOW FARMERS CAN UTILIZE THEIR
CORN CROP.
Large Returns From JudioIous Feeding
Never So Bright As at Pressnt-conai-
ton of Live stook-Importazs AErIcuI-
ture Statistics.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 90. = Secretary
Rusk of the department of agriculture
says that farmers in all parts Of the
country are inquiring as to the probable
profit of feeding corn to hogs at pres
ent, He desires to state that the ros-
poets of large returns from judicio uE
hog feeding has never been SO bright as
now. In average years it takes about
nine pounds of hogs, live weight, to
bring the price of a bushel of corn.
This year five pounds of hogs bring as
much as a bushel of corn. If ten pounds
of pork are made from bushel of corn,
which may be taken as a fair return,
then the present prices of hogs would
make corn bring about So cents bushel
if fed to these animals, which is about
twice as much as it is now quoted on
the Chicago market.
Instead of sending pigs aud half fat
hogs to market, as thousands have
done, only to find that such animals
were unfit for packing and would bring
but comparatively small price, these
animals should be kept on the farm and
fattened on corn which is now so cheap
in the market,
The high price of hogs is said to be
largely due to the meat inspection car
RED on by the department of agriculture,
which opened the market to Europe aud
enabled shippers to send the surplus hog
products out of the country. Following
this came a shortage in the hog product.
The number of hogs packed this winter
is not only less than it has been previous
ly, but the hogs were lighter in weight,
so that there he's been much smaller
quantity of hog product, prepared.
When the advance in price came the
farmers sold their breeding stock which
cannot be replaced for at least two years.
He therefore thinks that it is perfectly
safe to feed hogs under present con-
ditions until they are fully matured, as
the shortage of hog products and the un-
restricted foreign markets for inspected
meats offer the best possible guaranty
for good prices,
