The blue grass regions of Kentucky
cannot equal the fall grazing afforded
in Southern Kansas by the early sOwn
wheat. The stock here is now ia eX-
cellent condition and great portion
of it will 60 through the winter on
the wheat field without a feed of
grain, and will come out in the spring
fat and sleek. Kansas is hard cOun-
try to head off, anyhow.
Conductor Phillips and friends who
were hunting recently in the Strip re-
port plenty of game. The hunters
who made up this party were not

to pass them off for prairie sQuin els.
Phillips is all right on the railroad,
but Bob Boswell says he can't shoot a
little bit.-KiOwa Review.
