1T Is IN THE SOu.

Ihe recuperative quality Of Kansas
soil was never more perfectly exhibited
than within the last month. Up to
April 10 the surface was dry as powder,
and there was really cause for alarm in
The fact that the subsoil was as dry as
ever known i'll the fall season. 1t would
have been without precedent had the
spring months gone by without rain,
but the most. sanguine view to be taken
was that the drouth approached uncom-
fortably near the growing season. The
downpour came, however, at the oppor-
tune moment, with the result that much
OF the wheat which was thought to be
destroyed is safe now for good crop;
corn which was planted in the dust re-
spends to the invigorating influence of
rain and sunshine. and certainly looks
promising now as could be desired.
Oats, grass, garden vegetables, fruit and
even the spring chicken have sprung
into life as if by magic. The present
indications are indeed most fiattering
for an old fashioned crop, such as those
which have pushed Kansas to the front
rank as an agricultural state. 1t brin-s
out the truth that she has the first reoui-
site for all crops in any locality-that of
good, rich soil.
No amount of moisture would bring
fertility to the barren hills
of New England. The sun would never
terminate seed in the shifting sands of
millions of acres of our sea coast. but
the rich, black loan of our prairies even
under the hardest conditions yields a
hountiful crop Every acre being till
able and every township being acces>i-
bic our Kansas plains are destined 10 be
the home of the richest farming COM
munity IN the country. Seasons are not
always favorable here nor elsewhere
but it is the average that counts. If
five or ten years bring more dollars here
than in tbs colder and less agreeable
climates this is the place for the farmer.
\ mild climate, good roads, freedom
from malaria and pulmonary diseases are
surely worth taking into account. Thous-
ands can testify to the health giving in
tiuence of our pure, dry air. Many an
invalid has taken a new lease of life bv
moving from the lower attitudes. What
we need is pluck, patience and persever-
ance. The God of harvests and Kansas
soil will do the rest.

MAKES THE COUNTRY TIRED.

An investigation of the sugar trus,
senate and It's stock jobbing members at
this time would be farce. What the
country wants is for them to take some
action on the questions before them and
then adjourn and go home. 1t is mis-
taken idea TO send rich men TO the sen.
ate on the theory that they are too well
off TO be affected by money considera-
ton. That millionaire body is presum-
ably doing in a wholesale way what an
impecunious body might be expected 10
do on a small scale. The richer men
are the more avarlcious they become.
The spectacle of wealthy crew amend
ing a tariff bill to suit their industrial
pocket books is what is making this
country weary.
