Farmers should not be slow to try
windmill irrigation because of the small
area to which the labor by that method
must be confined. The practical test
mrde by Finney county farmers last year
is of great value, and demonstrates In
gardening on uplands. At the Garden
City institute it was shown that an or
binary pump and wheel will supply suf-
ficient water, BY using reservoir, to ir-
rigate from one to ten acres of upland.
1t is safer for the farmer to develop grad
ually, after his experience with alternate
failures and successes. 1t is better for
him to proceed with the least possible
expenditure of money until the new
method of farming has settled itself into
Its normal lines and conditions.

DR.. J. III. McCasey, the late populist
superintendent Of the Topeka insane
asylum, has shaken the dust of pOpulism
publican camp. He says: 1.-The rank

men, but there are too many who spread
teachings that are unwhOlesOme to good
government. The republican party is
the reconstructive party and good will
come through it more speedily than

Wheat.Fed Hogs.

An authority on the subject has great
faith in the expediency, in this wheat
growing region, of feeding that grain to
stock, and insists further that to get the
full value of this feed the wheat should
be cooked: especially for hogs. The
method it suggests is for the farmer who
fattens a number of hogs to have a
''farmer's boiler" provided with a
steam pipe which can be carried into
barrels or tanks holding the grain to be
steamed. Steam will cook in tanks or
barrels, and will turn out clean, sweet,
appetizing food, which can never be
burned, scalded or wasted by any neg
lect in attendance. When thoroughly
steamed the wheat will have gained
largely in bulk, and be soft, glutinous
and in perfect condition for digestion.
1t should be well mixed with water or
milk, and potatoes or other foods can be
added when fed to pork, lightly sailed,
and fed in regular rations when about
lukewarm. A gain of at least % per
cent, over raw or soaked wheat can be
confidently expected. according to this
authority. II is believed that bushel
of wheat thus cooked and fed should
give from fifteen to twenty pounds of
pork when fed to good stock. Good
bacon pigs are to day worth 5 $40 cents
per pound, and the highest price to be
paid this season, 1t is believed, will far
exceed this figure. There is certain to
be more profit in 1t than in almost any
other apparent opportunity presented to
the farmer this year. The Canadian
farmer, who largely feeds in this way,
gets relatively better prices for his pork
than the American farmer, says the
authority quoted. Their pork is fed on
wheat, barley. potatoes, oats, skim milk,
etc., with no corn to think of-generally
none at all. Western wheat-fed pork is
even now taking higher place in es-
TEEN of American and European re-
tallers than the average Chicago or Gin
cinnati article.

There will be only two strong candi-
dates for U. S. senator before the people
next fall. They will be ingalls, and
Burton. The sagacious campaign con-
Quoted by the latter for John Martins
seat is enough to make the noblest Ro-
man of them all tremble in his boots.
Also the fact that Senator Baker resides
in the adjoining county to Ingalls, will
have weight in evidence against the
great Interpreters chances.

The Survival of The Fattest.

He came in all humility,
To prove his great ability.
And remove an awful burden
From tariff. ridden land;
His sugar coated speeches;
Still stick to us like leeches;
He was the pride and glory
OF the Democratic Band.
They hailed him as their savior
And for his good behavior
Every single one of them
Was willing to go bond;
From ocean unto ocean
There arose great commotion;
They elected him the captain
OF the Democratic Band.
With shouts of reclamation
They notified the nation,
And spoke without restriction
Of the glorious things at hand,
Some of the greatest thinkers,
And all the ia riff thinkers,
Were proud to hail him leader
OF the Democratic Band.
Now all these things have altered,
Their wavering front has faltered,
They stand around detected and un
mann'd;
And before the next election
They will take up a collection,
For the sole surviving member
OF the Democratic Band.
