FUTURE is BRIGHT.
THE OUTLOOK FOR CROPS WAS
NEVER BETTER.
Most Satisfactory Reports from the
Great Grain Producing fract-Oats,
Rye and Fruit Flourishing Corn
Yield the Great ct Ever Known.
BOuutiful HarveSts.

This is likely to be phenomenal year
for agriculturists as the indications for
good crops throughout the farming dis
tricts Of the whole West have never been
surpassed. Grain of every sort and all
variety of fruits will be most abundant,
and as the farmer looks over his fields of
rich crops and his trees laden and weigh
ed down with fruit his heart laughs aloud
with joy.
Kansas has this year raised nearly
100000 bushels of Irish potatoes. the
largest crop in the history OF the State.
In many instances 200 bushels have been
raised on single acre. which were sold
on board the cars at 90 cents per bushel.
Taking the State as whole, the yields of
fruit and garden products We're never so
bountiful. and the trees and vines We're
never before so laden. Conditions aver
aSe 90 per cent. for apples, peaches,
grapes and cherries, and in one-half of the
State apples and peaches rate at 100 and
above.
The stories of drought and distress
which went forth from Nebraska last fall
and winter will hardly be repeated this
year, for, while farmers in many sections
are on the anxious seat as to their corn
crops, they are just completing what is
probably the most satisfactory harvest Of
small grain in the history Of the State.
Indeed, the yield of wheat and oats may
be said to he Il record breaker The acre
age of both these cereals this year, along
with rye and barley. was less than that
of last but the production of all accord
ing to estimates made, will be far above
the average. This is all the more graft
flying from the fact that the early drought
was the cause of gloomy forebodings.
In the Dakotas. the great wheat-grow-
ing States. the crop is placed at 2.4O0 900
acres and the yield at about twelve bush

Accommodations Provided Those At

The Chattanooga national military park
commission has issued the following an
nouncement ON behalf of the veteran sol
Giers who wish to so to the encampment
at Chattanooga:
1T appears from numerous letters re-
ceived by this commission that its previous
circular in regard to furnishing quarters
in camp barracks has been construed TO
mean that such barracks will be erected
without regard TO the orders received.
and that those desiring these quarters
can obtain them upon their arrival at
Chattanooga. This, however, is not the
case.
"As Congress made no appropriation for
free quarters, n plan was devised by
which barracks accommodations could be
provided by the citizens committee Of
Chattanooga at a very low rate for al
who might order such q sufficient time in
advance. 1t is the intention to extend
barracks as orders for accommodations
are received. Such accommodations can
not be provided under applications re-
ceived after Aug. 80. 1898.

his ankle. and the others were hunting
without him. As he could not move
about. he was naturally somewhat Dor

shade of 4 tree. he fell asleep. Thus
he tells what followed:
l woke up with Il start, and the feel

teen Indians sat in half circle about
me. waiting for me to stir.
They had fixed upon me their fifteen

looking al me. A lightning express OF

WILL STUDY AMERICAN CROPS.
Germany Attaches AgricEituris,
| to Its Embassy,

Several of the European Governments
have decided to send to their embassies
or Legation in this country what they
term agricultural attaches" Such an
attache will be expected to keep his home
Government informed not only as tc
crop conditions, prospects and prices in
the United States ut regular intervals. bu!
also to keep his people posted as to prog
ress in all agricultural methods and i'm.
prOvements from time to time. Germany
is the first to send an attache of this sort
who arrived in Washington a few days
ago and called upon the Secretary of Az
riculture. His name is Beno Rcinhardt
Freiherr Won Herman. lie is Il baron
although an agriculturst, so that he vii
no doubt be welcomed into official society
this winter, despite his long name. 1t is
understood that both the English and
French Governments will soon follow the
example of Germany and send an agr
cultural attache to their embassies here
and Secretary Morton now thinks that il
might be wise on the part of our Govern
ment to return the compliment by send
ing some of our most practical and sue
cessful farmers abroad in place of the
few military and naval attaches who pre-
sumably adOrn the diplomatic service OF
the United States.
