Larger Wheat Acreage.

In the face of the continued low price
Of wheat it is rather remarkable that
the farmers of the country will put cut
larger acreage this year than last.
Now, as if the over-supply from
23,518,795 acres in 1895 were not suff-
Gent lesson, they will this year have
24,224,358 acres in wheat-an increase
of 705,563 acres over last year. And
this they have done while that grain is
selling at 50 cents in Chicago and when
in Oregon and the Puget Sound cOun-
try the elevators are full of wheat that
is going begging at 20 cents bushel
There is every reason to believe that on
all but the largest wheat farms these
prices do not begin to cover the cost of
production.
Why this blind tempting of fate by
the American farmer? Is it because
that crop can be raised without invol.
ing a very great amount of manual L.
Dor that the western and northern
farmers repeat with wheat the very
mistake the southern farmers have for
years perpetrated with regard to cotton!
1t certainly is not the prospect that an
enhanced price will yield them profit
for their crop.
1t is possible that the important dis
covery, forced upon the farmers during
the past year, Of the value of that crop
as feed for farm animals may have had
something to do with the increased
acreage, as it is easier handled and
grown than corn,
The price of wheat will continue to
be low and perhaps go lower yet and
the American farmer must look tC
some other cereal for a money maker

TOPEKA, Feb. 16.-Hon. A. B. Mont

house of representatives from Rocks
county in 1885, but who later became a
resident of Goodland and has been
prominently Identified with every
movement for the development OF
western Kansas, is now in the capital
city endeaYoring to convince the law
makers of the fact which should be pa
tent to everyone, viz: That the only
salvation for the western half of Kansas
is irrigation. Mr.. Montgomery has
given this matter much careful cOnsid

forth the reasons why it is absolutely
necessary that an appropriation for
purposes of irrigation should be made
To a Press reporter he said:

ITO BE CONTINUED
REPUBLICANS Go en- RECORD

They Defeat the Bill in tho House Re-
duCiDg the Interest Rate.
Last week after passing several local
bills the house went into committee of
the whole. The committee took up Mr..
Lambert's bill reducing the rate of in
terest. The price of everything else
has gone down and the rate of interest
should be lowered to correspond, but
as will be seen hereafter the Republi-
cans showed their hand in the matter
and said that the rate was low enough.
OF course this is a bankers admins
tratiOn and it cannot be expected to
reduce its own income. Some Of the
fellows who voted for the "redeemers"
will realize this more truly than ever
in the course of time.
Mr.. Lambert took the floor and
spoke for his bill as follows:
This is Just plain proposition. 1t is to reduce
the rate of interest from 10 to per cent. The
banks of this state last year loaned $50,O0OOO0,
and this bill would mean a saving to the people
of 81 100000. believe that the prosperity of this
country depends upon the prosperity OF the great
masses of the people in the development of the
material resources of the country. 1t is this class
Of people that this law would benefit. Whenever
anything of this kind comes up there is always a
hue and cry about capital leaving the state, that
it will ruin the bankers ! apprehend if we look
out for the people the bankers viii take care of
themselves. Why this tender SOlicitude for a
few7 Why this CRY about injuTing the interests
of the banker, when the great masses of the peO-
pie arc to be benefited? Now after what have
said I an ready to have the banks friends jump
astTaddle of this bill. They are blOOdthiTsty and
want to please a banking constituency. In my
judgment the bill is reasonable and fair and
ought to pass.
Mr.. Warner, a banker from Cherokee
county, is reported as getting warm
over Mr.. Lambert's speech and said he
thought the house was wasting time
thrashing over questions that had been
discussed on the stump.
Wouldn't it be good thing to enact
into law some of the promises made on
the stump" querried Mr.. Lambert.
The banker grew still warmer and still
further defended the banks,
The roll call showed 50 for the bill
and 81 against it. The Populists voted
for the bill and the Republicans against
it. This is the banker idea of redeem
ing Kansas.

Because I accomplished the feat
with the aid Of the little night lamp that
found beside the colonel's bedside. Il
is my theory that Mrs. Maynard was
restless after the colonel finally fell
asleep: that she heard your tumble and
took her little lamp, crossed over into
Miss Renwiok's room, opened the door
without eEeaking, as 1 can do to your
satisfaction, found her sleeping quietly,
but the room a trife close and warm,
set her night lamp down on the table,
as did, threw her shadow on the wall,
as did, and opened the shade, as you
thought her daughter did. Then she
withdrew snd left those doors open
both hers and her daughter's-and the
light, instead of being turned down, as
you thought, was simply carried back
into her own room. "
THAT is all possible. But how about
the man in her room? Nothing was
stolen, though money and jewelry were
lying around loose. If theft was not the
object, what was?"
Theft certainly was not, and I'm
not prepared to say what was, but
have reason to believe it wasn't Miss
Renwick. "
Anything to prove it,"
"Yes, and, though time is precious
and cannot show you, you may take
my word for it. We must be off at
noon, and both Of us have much to do,
but there may be no other chance to
talk, and before you leave this post I
want you to realize her utter innocence. F"

Presumably, then, it was she-not

A Pure Rallinm PoMder.

A baking powder that can be &c
pended upon to be free from lime and
alum is desideratum in these days Of
adulterated food 50 far as can be
Judged from the official reports, the
" Royal" " seems to be the only one yet
found by chemical analyses TO be en-
tirely without one or the other of
these substances, and absolutely pure.
This, it is shown, results from the ex-
elusive use, by its manufacturers, Of
cream of tartar specially refined and
prepared by patent processes which
totally remove the tartrate Of lime
and other impurities. The cost Of
this chemically pure cream Of tartar is
much greater than any other, and it is
used in no baking powder except the
"Royal," the manufacturers of which
control the patents under which it is
refined.
Dr. Edward G. Love, formerly ana
lytical chemist for the L. s. govern
ment, who made the analyses for the
New York state Board of Health in
their investigation of baking powders,
and whose intimate knowledge of the
ingredients of all those sold in this
market enables him to speak authori.
lively, says of the purity, wholesome
ness and superior quality Of the
"Royal:"
Il find the Royal Baking Powder
composed of pure and wholesome in
gradients. 1t is cream Of tartar
powder, and does not contain any al
um or phospaates, or other injurious
substance"
Prof Loves tests, and the recent Of
fetal tests by both the United States
and Canadian governments, show the
Royal Baking Powder to be superior
to all others in strength and leavening
power. It is not only the most eco
nomical in use, but makes the purest,
finest favored and most wholesome
food.
