Russell County Working Along This
Line With the U. P. Railway.
Russell, Sept. 26.-E. w. voorhis has
gone to Omaha to confer with the land
commissioner of the Union Pacific rail-
road and to endeavor to secure a free
rate on seed wheat for Russell county.
Mr.. Voorhis wrote the land commission
er some time ago, asking for a free rate
on seed wheat, but received no answer
hence his journey to Omaha.
The majority of the grain men and
farmers say that a change of seed
wheat win mean better and larger
crops. Others claim that the wheat we
have is all right, but the weather has
been all wrong. Mr.. Voorhis thinks a
change will produce beneficial results,
and says No. 2 Nebraska wheat is pre-
ferred for seed, although a. good quality
is grown in eastern Kansas. The diff
Guilty so far experienced by those who
have been making inquiries has been to
find a desirable quality Of wheat.
