against him. The forces number
ed 700, 600. At the head of I22,
900 men, he set out for Belgium to
meet the advance. The Anglo.
Belgians, I2o,o 900, were en-
camped at Brussels so miles due
north of the line, Waterloo, IA
miles, Quartre Bras, some 20 mil IS,
and at other points little to the
northwest. Napoleon camped the
first night near the Belgian line,
due south of Quartre Bras. The
Prussians, under Blucher, occupied
chain of posts extending from
Wavtre, 40 miles northeast, around
to the line near Napoleon's camp.
These various positions were shown
by charts.
Next morning Napoleon success
fully beat back the Prussians and
sent detachment Of 40, 900 men in
pursuit of them, while he himself,
with the remainder of the army
beat back the Anglo Belgians OH
the Brussels road up TO Waterloo.
The speaker then entered exten-
sively into the details of prepara-
ton. A chart showed the position
of the two armies at the beginning
of the battle. The conflict was FOL

said, was 90 to 10 in his favor, was

arrival Of Blucher upon the field,

lined by Napoleon lor his missing
column. Butcher charged upon

Colonel Mclean concluded {:
"The loss in killed at the battle of
Waterloo was 40, 900 of the French

to his subject he had no thoughts

wheat is becoming softer from year to
year. Of course the growing season has
much to do with this. If the wheat can
mature without too much rain the per
cent. of gluten, which makes it vslu-
able, will be much larger than other
wise. In my opinion our farmers
should change seed at least every four
or Eve years, and new seed should be
imported from the Crimes about every
six or eight years. Farmers should be
encouraged to exchange for seed from
a distance of say twenty-five miles, as
l have found it a great means of i'm

seem best adapted for the red, hard
winter wheat, with which we can

to it. We have tried wheat from other
portions of our county and find q
change, especially from the north, is
beneficial. We would not recommend
seed obtained from too great dis
tsnce, say not to exceed $50 miles, but
it has been our experience that when
new seed has been brought in either
wheat or corn, the yield has been much
better for several years. Generally @
poor yield makes poor product, which
is the only complaint we would make
as to quality. 1t Is q good rule to
change seed at least once every five
years."
The Messrs. Colburn of the Queen
Bee roller mills at Mcpherson write
in substance as follows: "We believe
our farmers should change seed as
often as once in three or four years;
not necessarily to imported seed, but
to that raised in a different locality.
This, we believe, with the exceedingly
good milling qualities of the Russian,
or as we term 1t, kansas Hard, would
hold both the yielding and milling
qualities intact for many years. While
we are firm believers in changing seed
at least once In three years, 1t Is fact
that prevailing climatic conditions
make q wonderful difference in the
outcome of quality and yield, whether
the change is made or not. Everything
does not depend upon seed; we have

The numerous letters which each
season brings his office relative to this
condition and as to the sections from
which the most profitable change of

Secretary Coburn of the State Board of
Agriculture to obtain for publication
the views of those having the largest
opportunity for observation in such
matters and noting intelligently

This is the Crimesn winter wheat,

defniteness that the name Crimesn

variety, and that the misnomer 'Tur-

A number of years ago the same quail

comparing the wheat that has been

just imported, 1t shows a very marked
difference both in quality and certainly
in yield of bushels per acre as we'll as

our ordinary Russian wheat fours.
Farmers should change seed certainly
every five years, and 1 consider that
it would pay them well to change
every three years. For this part
of the State Dickinson county, l
would recommend sowing the hard
varieties, and in exchanging seed the
central part of Kansas could use that

from the Crimes should be used"

ANOTHER DISCREPANCY.
Shortage of Omaha's Ex-Treasurer
May he SweIIed to About 100000.

OMAHA, Neb., Jan. 3.-Several months
ago City Treasurer Bollin was forced to
turn the office over to his bondsmen, when
a defalcation Qfks25.000 was found. A COM
mittee appoino by the City Council at
once commenced an investigation and has
delayed its report from month to month.
y report was to have been made tonight.
At the last moment the commit 9Ae>potified
the Council that the report must be again
postponed. In explanation, the committee
said a new and unexpected discrepancy had
been found. The figures indicate an addi-
tional shortage in the city treasury, which,
unless counterbalancing items are found,
Will reach over $1,000 alone. In checking
UP the entries on the bond books an un-
accounted entry of S77,700 was unearthed
by the experts. This item appears just be-
low that recording the SS2 500 realized from
short-time bond sales last spring, and is in
the handwriting of John w. Fead, head
bookkeeper In the treasurerS Office. 1t is
in the sum OF N7,70o, and the money which
it is said TO represent has disappeared.
When questioned as to this entry, Fead as
serted that he made the entry after the
embezzlement was uncovered. He further
more asserted that he wrote the figures at
the peremptory command OF Thomas Swobe
and John Lauer, who were at that time
in the city treasurer'S office, I'm the interest
OF Bollin's bondsmen. Why he kept silent
so long on the subject he had nothin. to
say. Fead was called before the finance
committee to repeat his story, but he ex-
onerated Swobe and Lauer. He admitted
that he had written down the figures, prob
ably because they were necessary to make
the account balance
