FIFTY HUNDRED LIVE CHICKENS.

Poultry is flying high in price and old
hens are becoming dear meat, rot venison,
but rare, however thoroughly done. The
chanticler's shrill clarion Is no longer
heard in the breezy morn, and the proud
cackle of the plump pullet over her hrs5
egg is but a memory. Fowls are hatcned
with an incubator and a machine has been
invented to turn out the eggs. 1t Is as
serted that the packing houses have quit
sticking pigs as a bad scald and gone to
wriuging nechs and pulling feathers. One
woman reports that she expects to hatch
out one Thousand next month. Cnlckens
are chickens now, be they hens, ROSTERS.
pullets, or nothing but tough stlngy old
ganders. So great is the demand for barn
door birds, feathered frys and dunghlll
roasts that a local dealer is intent on an
invention for Matching scrambled eggs
and ouelets. Anything III the way OF a
bird that wont scare the spurs off cock
commands fifty cents aud no guarantee
The demand for alarm clocks from the
country has doubled within the month,
the rural rooster no longer depending on
his cock growing, because he can't, for he
is no more, and much else that we haven
time to think up. This may read like a
fairy tale but if you will step down to. 146
Rock Island avenue, to the place. of bust
ness of the Petre Produce company yen
will comprehend the dead earnestness
which overcomes one on beholding fifty
hundred live chickens of every conceivable
color, breed and size, which are being
shipped to Chicago, where the Latin and
Saxon, the Mongolian and the African
will appease the pangs of their pabulun
receptacles with prairie pickings from the
Petrie Produce company Of the Peerless
Princess Of the Plains.

THIS WILL BE AB.G CORN YEAR.

PROFESSIONALLY the wheet of south cen
trail Kansas has been very materially dam
aged. That was the case in the spring of
1879, when it did not commence 20 rain
until the 10Th of the present month. How
ever, there is much wheat in the six or
seven adjoining counties that Will make
something of crop if it should rain with
in a week or ten days, and at this wriGing,
Saturday afternoon-the indications for
rain are very favorable. As far west as
Pratt county there are some fine sections
of wheat, much better than can be found
in Sedgwick or Sumner, two big wheat
terday that a good rain within week and
Pratt would harvest fair crop Of wheat.
1t viii be remembered that our
big corn years have not been phe-
nomenal wheat years The corn
crop of 10, for instance, was immense.
Wheat at fifty and sixty cents per bushel
however prolific the yield, is not d wealth
producing crop, ana we have been wishing
for years that our farmers would give 1t
less acreage. Corn and hog, and mutton
and beef-all kinds Of live stock, represent
gold dollars. \ big corn crop this year
will prove of more value than big wheat
crop with medium corn yield would. In
two or three weeks from now the precipi-
tation will be abnormal without doubt
when everybody will be bewailing the
wet. Uncle Johnny Carpenter one Of the
Oldest and most successful farmers of this
valley, said yesterday, ''look out for big
corn crop in south Kansas this year.

Warning to the Public.

Don't be fooled by any circulars ad- vertising Lightning Proeessp in mak- ing pictures. Lightning processes are only used in making photographs of caves, moving objects, etc, and never used in ordinary photography, as they do not give good results. The proposi- ton of making photographs at home is also absurd, as a first-class photo cannot be made without a first-class light, and it can only be obtained under a regular ly arranged skylight with the aid of screens, refiectors. shades, etc. Pictures otherwise made look harsh. Again. one who has not had experience enough to finish his own work cannot make good negative. It Is all guess work with him. By q streak ofltick he may hit it once tn while, but not often, and then it's only an accident. So, Dc not misled.
