Irrigation Niarter.

The western half of Kansas can
only be fully developed as an agricul-
tural country by irrigation. The pos
sibilities of that section Of that sec
tiOn of our state aided by irrigation,
are at this time beyond computation
So little is practically known on this
subject that much educational work
will have to be done. No man can
travel over western Kansas without
being impressed with the fact that
the deep rich soil of that section is
substantial basis for the irrigator. 1t
will cost no more to develop success
full irrigation there than it did to
clear and clean the timber lands of
Ohio, Indiana, Michigan and Wiscon-
sin, or any other wooded sections.
That this subject, yet in its infancy,
will require the fostering care of the
state, the establishment of expert
ment stations, the dissemination of
literature and thorough discussion of
the benefits, is potent to all observers.
The representative of western Kan
sas in the present legislature are just
flied in asking for fair appropriation
to begin this great work. No more
important favor can be done for Kan
sas than the development Of irriga-
ton and it will take years to fully i'm
press the people of eastern Kansas
who have never been over the country,
of its immense value to the state
The present demands for experiments
in this line should meet with appro-
val. An insignificant appropriation
will retard the work three years. The
House irrigation bill that passed the
House on Tuesday was pushed for
ward to a third reading and will come
up early in the week for discussion.
The Capital believes the appropria-
tion asked for in this bill should be
granted. Kansas will then for the
first time begin the development of
Western Kansas upon basis that will
make it rich and prosperous. -Capital.

perhaps you would not think so,
but a very large proportion of diseases

son. sit is such simple thing and
so common that very few people, I'M
less it is case of pneumonia, pay any
attention to a cold. New York is
one of the healthiest places on the
Atlantic coast and yet there are a
great many cases Of catarrh and con-
sumption which have their origin in
this neglect of the simplest precau-
tiOn Of every day life. The most
sensible advice is, when you have one
get rid of it as soon as possible. By
all means do not neglect it," DR.. Ed

TO WHOM THESE PRESENTS SHALL
COME, GREETING.

TO WHOM THESE PRESENTS ShAAL
COME, GREETING.
We are now entering on our Seven
teenth year. This fact alone speaks
volumes. It demonstrates, beyond
any doubt, that there is legitimate
field in Trego county for a newspaper
and that the WORLD was originally
founded to meet that want. If it
were not so, Wa-Keeney and Trego
county would certainly be without
representation in the newspaper field
to-day.
Times have never been SO hard as
they have been in western Kansas the
past two years, and the newspaper
business has shared in the general de-
preston. But to make matters still
worse with us the disastrous fire of
February 9Th, completely swept our
office out Of existence, not even the
books and files being saved. Yes, we
were discouraged. We had one Of the
most complete country offices in the
state. Our files contained detailed
history of Trego county since be
fore the date of it's organization.
But enough of the past. 1t is with
the future we have to deal. We have
purchased an entire new outfit.
Presses, type, furniture everything
is new from the factory. We intend
to furnish our readers with better
paper than before if hard labor will
accomplish our purpose and our
friends will stay by US as they always
have in the past. We believe they
will do this, and we will reciprocate
by giving you a paper every week that
will be credit to your community.
1t will probably be a short time be-
fore we can make our promises entire
ly good but we wish to emphasize
them now.
The WORLD will be republican in
politics as it ever has been, but it will
not be partisan. There are other
matters of more Importance than who
shall hold the offices. Irrigation and
kindred subjects are of more interest
to us all than anything else, and the
WORLD will make a special effort
along that line. Within the next
twelve months we believe the irriga-
tion problem as it affects western
Kansas will be solved. Congress has
appropriated $4,000 for experimental
purposes, our legislature has appro-
priated $50, 600 and our forestry ap-
preparation gives us s., 100 for an irri-
CATION plant at Ogallah. If water
can be had in sufficient quantities
and at a reasonable cost to irrigate
the uplands, our lands will be almost
as valuable, from the very time the
fact is fully demonstrated, as they are
in the most favored agricultural
regions in the Missouri or Mississippi
valleys. The growing of alfalfa and
other paying crops on our bottom
lands is not an experiment but an es-
tablished fact, and a number of oul
farmers will begin work this season.
We have the finest climate and the
best society in the United States
God never made this beautiful coun.
try without a benefcent purpose and
we firmly believe that we are on the
beginning of new and better era and
that much better things will come tC
him who waits in western Kansas.

The Kansas City Journal says that
Kansas papers which are denouncing

tion will become an accomplished fact.

AFTER all, the great law of supply
and demand will largely regulate the
price of the farmers products, and any
policy that reduces the price of labor
in the United States must, necessari-
", reduce the price of any product
that the farmer has to sell. This is
an axiom, a rock ribbed fact, and if it
is treason in that it assails the es-
tablished doctrine of free trade you
will have to make the most of it.
