What has become of the sparrows?
Where there were hundred few
weeks ago there are now scarcely ten
to be seen. They have disappeared
from the streets and their favorite
haunts on the lawns and in the parks.
1t has not been because they were
hunted and driven off or from any
lack of food. Where have they gone
and what does it mean?- Chicago
Inter Ocean.
They have probably gone to the
country to enjoy prosperity. Many
Of these sparrows are in Kansas, and
they are the advance agents of i'm
migration.

Looking Toward Kansas.

Looking Toward Kansas.
From Ohio comes information thai
. good many farmers are preparing
to move to Kansas. There will bt
many such reports in the near future
In the height of the boom years age
Kansas never received such effective
advertising as has been done for the
state this year, and there has been
no organized effort to do it. either;
Kansas doesn't need any paid adver-
tisements this year. The distribu.
ton of printed matter telling of the
state, which was 80 extensively car
ried on twelve or fifteen years ago,
is unnecessary now. The news col
umns of the papers all over the
country have been spreading abroad
the fame of Kansas in a way that ID
much more effective than boom litera-
ture could possibly be.
Until last year there had been an
ebbing tide of population in Kansas
for many years past, and the number
of people in the state declined from
l ,464, 900 in 1889 to 1884, 900 in
1895. For two years past the tide
has been rising slowly, and it is safe
to predict that each year for the next
five years or more will bring large
additions to the population. Prob.
ably the gain each year will be grea-
ter than the loss in any single year
of the period of reaction from the
boom.
There can be no doubt that Kansas
and contiguous states offer better OPP
portunlties to the farmer who is
seeking a new home than any other
section of the country. This state
ment is not based on the fact that
Kansas has big wheat crop this
year, which is selling at remunerat-
i've prices. 1t is justified rather by
the prosperity which the Kansas far
mers had commenced to enjoy before
the Kansas wheat grower struck his
streak of good luck. The
aggregate profits of stock raising
in Kansas will be greater this year
than the gains from the wheat crop,
and whatever may be the future of
wheat producers in the next few
years there is practically no doubt
that for some time to come the man
who raises and feeds cattle and hogs
and sheep in the west will make
good profits.
The great competition among rail
roads running south and east to haul
products of Kansas and surrounding
states insures the farmers of this sec
ion relatively greater prices than
will be obtained for the products of
any other section of the country. A
wider diversifcation of crops is pos
sible in Kansas than in any other
state, and every year farmers are
more about the possibilities
N this line.
The romance of this years wheat
crop has formed the basis of the ex-
tensive advertising which Kansas has
received. But the permanent and
assured prosperity of the state does
not depend on the wheat crop. and
the man who has been lead by the
stories of this years wheat crop to
look into the prospects for profitable
farming in Kansas will find many
other elements of prosperity there.
There is no reason why Kansas
should not make great gains iu popu-
lation in the next five years. The
has started, and it will
gain in force with each succeeding
year.-Kansas City Star.

COMING TO KANSAS.

COMING TO KANSAS.
Many Ohians Will Move to the Sun
flower State.
A Columbus co., telegram states
that Kansas is in for another boom
It says:
The partial failure of crops in Ohio
and the wonderful crops of Kansas il
causing many farmers to cast about
and scheme on going west. There
is far more talk here about Kansas
crops than about Klondike. It is
safe to say that thousand times
more Ohioans will go to Kansas than
to Klondike.
It is plainly apparent that there
will be an exodus of farmers for
Kansas this fall and winter. The
talk here now is to sell out and 60 to
Kansas. The state papers and county
papers have commenced to revive
grasshopper and calamity talk about
Kansas by way of retaining the
population. As plain matter of
fact, there is more of Kansas move
ment in Ohio today than ever before.
Mr.. Lewis Garrison has just re
turned from a trip in the west and
reports crops in a favorable condi-
ton.
ssIn Kansas" says Mr.. Garrison,
'sthe farmers are elated with the fact
of wheat being IS and 81 cents per
bushel. Mr.. Bryan had prophesied
that if Mckinley were elected presi-
dent wheat would surely drop to 25
cents. He talked this way in all his
western speeches.
''The farmers in the west are very
prosperous. The general condition
of farms is first-class. Houses and
barns have been fixed up and painted,
fences are in good repair, and alto
gether trip through the west shows
the general good results of dollar
wheat. Kansas seems to have had
an extraordinarily large crop. One
farmer had over 900 acres in wheat
which averaged forty bushels to the
acre. It is quite nice item, $36, 900
for one seasons work.
"Wheat is not the only good crop
at good price in the west. Apples
are thick on the trees. One farmer
in Missouri sold his crop on the trees
to New York commission house for
$4,000. Ripe apples are being ship
ped in carload lots to Texas and
other southern states.
"There is a great field in raising
cattle in the west The owner of q
cattle ranch of 5000 acres is making
a small fortune every year out of the
business. Again, running a dairy
near the large cities is a paying in
vestment. One man near Topeka
has ten COWS and nets $35 per month
off of them. The industry could
easily be increased. Very little genu
inc milk is consumed in st. Louis,
caused by the difficulty of getting it. |
As consequence large chalk milk
concern does a dourishing business
there. Small fruit raising is an
other opportunity. With very little
irrigation the whole of the west
could be turned into profitable land
in this line.
81 should say" continued Mr..
Garrison, s'that $4,000 ought to be a
lair sum to STOCK and operate a good
sized farm in the west. Care of the
on farm, just like q
cares for his machines:
care in selling produce at the highest
prices and hard work combined
Oupht To make a man and fam;lv a
more comfortable living than one
working in city drawing 500 per
week. Farming in the west pays!"
