weeks of July, %, 497, 614 pounds, as against

sales are about four times the weekly
consumption it is expected that the mar
ket is essentially speculative, but the rise
abroad has set the country ablaze, so that
western holders are asking even higher
prices than heretofore. But buying, by
most manufacturers, is already effected,
and at the prices now asked for wool

Cotton goods continue active and strong
with comparatively little difficulty as to
labor. The northern mills have taken
little over 10000 bales in the past three
months, since cotton was below 7c-, but

For we boys worked powerful sight

And we never dreamed Of such diet

Lean near and nearer the pane:

She's so pretty, and not bit vain
Yes. you're right. grandpa says with q

And almost q sob in his voice
-''ITor don't know where there's her equal.
Unless it should be them there boys"
Then grandma and grandpa nod wisely.
And smile till the tears dim their eyes;

opening OF the Goodland irrigation
plant this week, and made careful OBJ
servation OF the condition of the corn
crop across the state from east to west
Mr.. Coburn is always conservative In
his estimates of crop conditions, and
the following statements. which he
made in an interview, are thoroughly
reliable:
1.-THE corn crop from the Missouri to
the west line of the state is surely as
promising as it well could be at this
time of year-so much so that with
such an immen-e acreage its probable
yield is like Kansas underground
water supply, beyond calculation
Crops everywhere are also in prime
condition, and. of course, live stock is
thriving wonderfully"
Ibid you notice much damage to
crops and property by the recent heavy
rains and high water?"
mo; going by the Union Pacific and
returning by the Rock Island, did
not see ten acres all told that had been
| injured by too much rain Washouts
On the latter road in Norton and De-
catur counties have caused great dam
| age, but trains are being run through
again all right"
