CORN IS STILL KING.

There is room for much encourage
ment over the prospects of corn crop.
The large acreage planted and the ger
erous rains throughout the state are two
most excellent reasons for expecting a
large aggregate yield. Corn is the great
staple, chiefly because it makes beef and
pork. In this sense it is really three
crops in one, which is not true of other
products. If wheat is partially killed
there is the consolation that there is little
profit in it at present prices, and where
the damage is so great as to justify plow-
ing up and planting to corn, it is
liable TO yield far more than
even a full crop of wheat. Farmers
will do well never to lose sight of the
fact that corn is king in Kansas. Though
we have partial failures, as they do else
where, it should be planted and Guilt
waited with the same care as if a full
crop was assured every year. There will
always be surplus, ana it is not prob
able that the price of meats will ever be
so low that corn cannot be fed at a
good profit. What Sedgwick county
farmers need is courage and confidence.
Our native soil and sunshine will do the
rest. The black volume of smoke rising
heavenward from our packing houses
should be the emblem of promise to
every farmer in the county. If they
keep that going the cash will come in
perennial flow.

THE BROTHERS. RETURN.
From the Detroit Free Press

From the Detroit Free Press.
'How does the tramp and the Michi-
gan farmer agreed" asked Free Press
reporter of seedy-looking chap who
struck him for a dime at the city hall
the other day.
''Wall, speakin' fur the tramp, / can't
say that we hev anythin' in pertickler
egin' the farmers" he sagely replied.
pretty generous, are they?'
''Tolerby generous"
"And they seem to believe your tales
of woe?"
Our tales of woe are always true
and orter be believed. Jist on the spur
of the mint 1 can't remember of but
one mean farmer in all this state, and
I've travelled over most of the coun-
| try. He lives near Ann Arbor,
and the circumstance happened two
years ago. 1 was lynn in a fence
corner one day, and heard some men
in a field talkin' about the owner of
the next farm west. His name was
johnson, and it appeared that he once
.had brother Bill who ran away and
hadn't bin herd of fur fifteen years.
There was heap o talk about how
glad he'd be to see Bill again, and it
put an idea into my head"
ITO pass yourself off for Bill?"
Exactly. That evenin' / put in an
appearance. johnson was milkin' in
the barnyard, and l sat down on a hay
rack and broke the joyful news to him
that his long-lost brother Bill finally
stood before him. He got white and
red and trembled all over, and finally
he got up and embraced me and SEE:
Eyes, it's Bill, fur sure! I'd hev
known you if we'd met in Chiny
Thank the Lord that the lost has al
last returned. Now l kin be happy
agin.'
Accepted you off-hand, eh?"
"Yes, sir: and for few minits I
thought 1 had Fstruck it rich. He got
through milkin', and we were ready to
60 into the house, when he sets the pail
down and seq:
Bill, remember the day you left
home in the distant long ago?'
Yes"
L advised yen not to go, and you
got mad and called me a red-headed,
hump backed liar, have never forgot
ten that, Bill. and I've allus stuck to it
that if you ever got back I'd turn to and
lick We out of yer butes. You are here,
Bill,and now I'm goin' to do it"
But he didn't" was asked
Eyes, he did, He was as big as tv,,
of me, and he mopped me all over that
barnyard for half an hour, and the
only way I saved my life was in break
in away and crawlin' through hole
in the fence. He hollered to me to
come back, and that the fatted calf
was ready, but l never stopped run
MIN fur five miles. Can't say that the
Michigan farmer is particularly down
on tramps, but they don't seem to hev
no brotherly feelin's fur long-lost
brothers.

WOMEN AND MONEY.
From the xew York herald.


There are half a dozen uptown
banks which do three-quarters OF their
business with women. Situated in ths
residence and shopping districts they
are used for the housekeeping and
private purses of those women who
have incomes OF their own or are paid
quarterly allowances by husband or
fathers.
The old joke, snent woman's .inabil-
ity to transact money matters are
scoffed at by the officials % those
banks. They say that women are much
more satisfactory depositors than men,

counts, and presenting their books at
regular intervals TO be written up.

WILL REDEEM KANSAS.

George Martin, in his Kansas City Ga
zette, referring to the cowardice of the
Populists in calling their convention and
so forth, vigorously remarks:
The Popullsts seem to be much divided on
the policy of their calling their state conven-
ton for June Il. One portion asserts that
there is danger that the Republicans, who
hold their convention on June 8, will steal the
Populist platform, while the other portion
think il Is better to await the action of the
Republicans on the suffrage plank and other
measures Meanwhile the Republicans pro-
pose TO so straight forward and adopt sensi-
Die platform, which will be stalwart in Re-
publicanism, devoted to the redemption of
Kansas from Populist misrule, and plainly ig-
noring all other questions not generally ger

COOKING MEATS.

From Chambers Journal.
How shall we dress meats to Weld
the highest nutritive results and en-
joyment?
The most primitive forms of cooking
are the methods still most generally
practiced- Broiling. roasting and boil
ing are to-day the oommonest ways of
dressing meats for food; but between
the manipulation of the crude house
keeper and that of the thoughtful
housewife whose eye, hand and nose
have been trained 70 understand that
heat means variations of temperature
and not merely "a fire." there is
broad gap.
The first lesson of the cooking school
is necessarily the care and management
of the stove.
One woman will boil her corn beef
in water at two hundred and twelve,
its maximum temperature, while she
whose observation has been cultivated
to study effects. obtains better results
at one hundred and eighty. The for
mer wastes part OF the gelatine and
albumen. while her rival has learned
that as albumen coagulstes at the low
er temperature, very little waste oc-
ours and the meat is not toughened-
On the same principle OF action the
gas stove and the charcoal FIRE are SO
perfectly controlled that the broiling
OF steaks, chops and sausages may be
accomplished with the least loss of
fat and the best result in the work.
The frying pan requires perhaps
more skill than any other utensil Of the
