In his address at the Agricultural Board,
a practical farmer at Lakin, Kansas, said
this:
Having what seemed to be an mex
haustible water supply beneath the sur
face, made up MY mind to investigate
and try the experiment of raising this to
the surface. In the spring of 1893 pur-
chased and had put in what is called the
Cause pump, using as power to run it a
fourteen-foot Halliday windmill. This
pump being put in under the drive we'll
system, has six two inch points, three feet
long, attached to the same number of
pipes of the required length, and all con-
Meeting with a larger pipe having an
eight-inch cylinder. The windmill has
twelve inch stroke and under fair wind
will make about thirty strokes per min
ute, raising about seventy gallons of
water, this being 1OO,s gallons every
twenty four hours. This would be suffi-
cient water to irrigate twenty or more
acres of land thoroughly, but we can't de-
pend on the amount from wind power. In
fact i much doubt whether windmill
power is just the power to run these
pumps. know that Kansas has the rep
utstion of being a windy state, but l have
found, when come to make use of that
wind, it is not there. l don't think you
can count on a windmill running more
than third OF the time. and doubt if it
will run a'pump to its full capacity more
than One-fOurth of the time. Such, at
least, has been my experience in the
pumping business. For this reason l aW
not hurrying to put in any more windmill
pumps. am now, however, investigat-
ing and figuring on putting in larger
pump and running the same by steam or
gasoline engine. l am satisfied that
pumping water is going to be our chief
means of supply in the very near future
The question is often asked me as to how
much land can irrigate with the pump l
now have. This is difficult question to
answer, but l am safe i'm saying think
it will furnish an abundance of water for
ten acres, and with a constant and steady
power it would, of course. more than
double this amount. A good reservoir is
needed in order to get satisfactory results.
l have reservoir at this pump. size 100
feet square and five feet deep. In build
ing this simply used team and scraper,
laying of the ground and taking all dirt
from inside of reservoir to build the
banks. In finishing pillow the bottom of
the bed of reservoir and plllverize the soil
as fine as possible, and then turn in the
water. had some difficulty at first i'm
getting it to hold water, but it seems to
be perfectly water tight now. have put
in fish, the German carp. and they keep
the water riled and muddy, which, I
think, has a tendency to seal the bottom
and sides. This reservoir, built in this
manner, cost me about S25, and think it
just as good as though had used cemen:
in making it water-tight, and which, of
course, would have added considerable to
the cost.

lowing:
81. There has been of late much con-
troversy as to the extent of Ges.itution
and suffering in certain localities within
the state, and whether the case calls for
actual and extended measures of relief"
''In order that reliable information may
be obtained in these questions, command
.ers of Posts are requested to at once in
stitute special inquiries and send a state
ment of the facts brought to their knowl-
edge to these headquarters. In the mean
time comrades who reside in the most
favored localities will proceed to secure
donations and pledges, and report to these
headquarters what they can do in the way
of relief. This should be done without
delay and measures will be taken here for
the proper distribution of all donations.

deavoring to represent by words Of
contraction. the dependence of one
word upon another, he is insepsibly
initiated into the science of universal
languages, and particularly in the
knowledge of his natural tongue.
The memory is also improved by
the practice of stenography. The
obligation the writer is under to re-
tain in his mind the last sentence of
the speaker at the same time he is
carefully attending to the following
one, must be highly beneficial to that
faculty, which more than any other
owes its improvement to exercise.
And so much are the powers of re-
tention strengthened by this exertion,
that a practical stenographer will
frequently recollect more without
writing than a person unacquainted
with the art could copy in the time
by the use of common hand.
The rapidity with which it enables
q person to commit his own thoughts
to the safety of manuscript, also
renders it an object worthy of regard.
BY this means many ideas which
daily strike us, and which are lost
before we can record them in the
usual way, may be preserved till
mature elaboration can ripen and
perfect them. But it has additional
favors in store for those who are SO
far convinced of its utility as per-
sonally to engage in its pursuit.
The advantages resulting from exer-
cises of this art are not as is the case
with many others confined to par
ticular class of society, for though it
may seem more Immediately calcu-
lated for those whose business it is to
record the eloquence of public men,
and the proceedings of popular as
semblies, yet it offers its assistance to
persons Of every rank and station in
life to the man of business as well as
the man of science-for the purpose
Of private convenience as well as Of
general importance.
