KANSAS CROP PROSPECTS.

The April crop report of the Kansas
state board of agriculture is out. Every
day since the report on crop conditions
of one mouth ago has been a day of
notable improvement asriculturally in
every Kansas county. All parts of the
state have been visited by gentle rams
(many portions from three to six or more
times, which while sufficient to put the
soil IN the best possible state for work
ing were not at any time so heavy nor
long continued as 10 delay work. As a
whole the month has not been a warn,
one and although. the growth of vege-
tation has been of steady, healthy
character it was not nearly so rapid as
would have resulted from continuously
higher temperature. II has been a
period of steady blowing and planting
under weather and soil conditions as
favorable as the farmers of any region
need ever hope FOR, and May 1894 opens
upon them with unusually bright
promise of bountiful crops. This, does
not imply that in. numerous counties
much OF the winter wheat sown will,
because OF an unfayorable fall or win
ter, give bat a poor return and
i'll not few instances none at all; but it
is fact not TO be overlooked that the

filth for the uses of corn or other de-
sired crops to which it is rapidly being
planted. An unusually large proportion
of it is already in the ground; in the
southern counties many fields are re-
ceiving their first cultivation and show
a most satisfactory. stand. In the GEN.
trail and northern counties the situation
is equally encouraging. although work
and growth are somewhat less advanced.
The acreage planted will undoubtedly

much ground upon which winter wheat
has failed and where oats and spring

ROMANCE IN 1904.

To the Editor of the Eagle.
Your article in last Sundays issue upon
the masculine tendency of women and the
flsbby degeneracy of men presaged the
death Of poetry. You and other editors
might find crumbs of comfort in future re-
lief from the spring warblers who annually
flood your waste baskets; yet it is possible
that the poet of the future will write ro-
nance something like the following:
ANA Zon drove her Norman team,
Flowing a furrow OF mellow ground
And she swung the mold-board and the
beam
Clear" as the horses turned around.
She paused a moment at the ed.e
OF the fertile Sedgwick county field,
Not dreaming that beyond the hedge
A male etfsminate was concealed.
And ANA leaned upon her pillow
In an unconscious attitude
The breeze upon her expansive brow,
A picture of modern womanhood.
She wore no coat but WOODEN shirt,
And one suspender dangled down;
Her neither garb was not skirt,
And her face aud neck aud arms were
brown.
Her boots were cowhide, soaked with oil,
Bnt suited we'll TO raising crops,
And, to avoid the furrow soil
Her oyeralls were in their tops.
Alberta Roe-the aforesaid male,
EDraptured gazed through the dense
green leaves;
His surpliced bosom, fiat and frail,
Proceeded TO heaye some gentle heaves
His frame was sgitated SO
The trimmings on his bloomer blue,
Did shake as did the gems also,
In bis pink ears like drops of dew.
He coughed and giggled. Then Anna turned
And saw. Alberta trim and fair.
And, recognizing, WAS more concerned
And dropped the traces, then and there
Brave ANA walked with steady stride
Aud ieaped the bars with ease and grace
And being on the shady side -
The lovers met In fond embrace
The strong brown arms of Ana made
Alberta's corset fairly crack,
While their lips met aud glueful staid
In thrilling Ella Wheelright smack.
''Oh, Anal Do not he so rudei'
Alberta isped, You muss my clothes
l am not forward nor prude,"
And here he bfushed down 10 his hose.
l am so lonely here of late.
For ma has gone with her bleoded stock.
And sister Joe is a candidate,
And-pa Is making me 4 frock;
So l thought l would take a little walk
Amid the flowers and sunshine warm.
! merely wished TO meet and talk,
Believing there coCld be no harm.
In meeting so noble girl as you
Alone this far away from home,
For you are brave and strong and true
A shield for ME should danger come.
Then Anna took his little hand
While be leaned on her model of necks.
And said in language firm but bland:
''Ot course I'll shield the weaker sexr'
Alberta melted closer TO
The stalwart ANA, and said he:
The quewel world wonId pardon you,
But what, oh, what would is say of me."

KANSAS BUILDING ASSOCIATIONS.

The United States commissioner of
labor, Hon. Carol ID. Wright of the Gen.
sus bureau, having completed his stats
tics, issues circular on cooperative
banks and building associations. 1t is
full of interesting figures, and shows
that building and loan associations are
profitable and popular and growing very
rapidly. Kansas has seventy-two of
these Corporate bodies and all reported in
prosperous condition.
The report consists of six chapters, in
which are brought out all the main facts
for each state Of the Union in tabular
form and in text analysis. All the diff
ferent methods of distributing profits. of
paying premiums, and withdrawing
shares are clearly and fully elucidated,
and all the laws of the different states
relating to these associations are in
corporated.
One of the most interesting facts
shown by the report relates to the age of
the associations. While building and
loan associations had their birth in the
decade of years from 1910 to 1850, with,
perhaps, here and there one prior to the
first date named, the report shows that
the average age of all the associations is
but &C. years, the local associations hav-
ing an average age of 6.3 years, and the
nationals an average of only g years. OF
the locals 1884 are under years of age.
2, 1913 are 5 years or under 10 years of
age, and $50 are 10 years or under Is
years of age. making a total of 5, 146 as
sociations out of the whole number
under 10 years of age. There are hut
433 over 10 years of age. These figures
certainly show that the building. and
loan associations of the country are en-
tirely modern institutions and have
reached their great proportions during
the last ten or fifteen years. This, in
connection with the fact that they have
net assets of over $3.50, 600, 900. have
made total profits of more than $50. 000,-
600, have helped to secure probably over
400, 900 homes, and are semi-bankng in
situations conducted by ordinary men
not trained as bankers but yet have met
with remarkably. few losses, shows con-
clusively the strong hold which building
and loan associations have taken upon
the public.
