TOO MUCH WHEAT.

Nobody can tell how far the labored
arguments of certain visionary econo-
mists are responsible for the increased
acreage Of winter wheat for the coming
season says the Kansas City Journal.
but the farmer reads to little purpose if
he has given no attention to the other
side OF the question. With prices lower
than ever before and with nothing
whatever 10 show where the surplus
now on hand is to be used, it is diff
cult to see where encouragement is to
be had for planting still more wheat if
it is not in the hope held out by theo-
retical agriculturallsts that there NAV
be shortage somewhere that will lift
the American wheat raiser out of the
hole he is now in.
Columns upon columns have been
written to demonstrate the simple fact
that failure of the crop in Argentina
or India would make demand for the
American products that would tempor-
arily restore prices to something like a
compromising level. But the necessary
basis to the premise is admitted to be
in the hands of providence and not in
any degree subject to human influences.
If the Western wheat raiser has mined
his faith to the possibility of famine
elsewhere in his increase of a million
acres sown to wheat, he deserves to he
classed as the lazy farmer.
There was time when wheat sold
for dollar bushel, and the claim was
made that there was no money ia it
and it cost very little more to raise the
crop then than it does now. Then the
price came down one-fourth, but the
surplus each year grew larger. Down
went the price until the farmer got less
than 50 cents, and the surplus was
larger than ever before. The grain was

A Stream of Beauty.

That is what can be seen almost any
afternoon at the Woodward Butler
irr igation plant, just west of the city
limits. In company with Commis-
sioner Bruce the writer drove out to
the plant Friday afternoon, to see
just what steam engine and little
Wonder" pump could do. The pump
is drawing water from 6-inch point,
put into the ground ten feet. The
hole was first dug to the river water
level, then wooden casing made of
2x6's was let down into the sand, the
sand being taken out of the inside
with sand pump. The 1O-foot
point was then put down inside the
casing, the latter pulled out and space
around the, point where the casing
was filled with coarse gravel. Con-
slant pumping does not create any
decrease in the flow of water, and
when we were there a beautiful little
river was flowing away from the pump
in the main ditch and being spread
out upon the dry ground in wonderful
quantities.
A five acre sweet potato field was
being flooded Friday. Messrs. Wood.
ward and Butler have fine lying
ground for their work, and while we
believe they will lose little time in
learning how to get the water to the
right place, there is no doubt but
they have learned how to get large
supply of water at small cost, and will
eventually reap fattering reward for
their labors.
Drive ont that way and see how
easy it is to get what this country
most needs-water. Go straight west
from the court house, and you cannot
miss the place.

Great Bend win Celebrate.

st a meeting of citizens at the city
council chamber last Tuesday night.
it was unanimously decided that Great
Bend should celebrate the 18th of July,
1895, with all the old time enthusiasm
and patriotic fervor. The close times
and short crops may give other towns
the blues, but the citizens of Great
Bend do not propose to let such little
matters dampen their patriotism or
prevent them from celebrating the
anniversary Of our nations birth.
Mayor Moses presided over the meet
ing Tuesday night, and after the mat
ter was thoroughly discussed, the
Great Bend Commercial Club was
asked to take charged of the man
agement of the affair, which they will
lingly do; and with the aid and co..
operation of every business man they
will get up such celebration as
everyone will be proud of and which
can be enjoyed by young and old,
great and small. The celebration
will be a go. Help the boys along by
en- couraging words and acts.
