The estimated value Of all the prod
ucts Of Kansas this year, exclusive of
live stock, is placed at sI76,OOO,0OO by
the boomers, which is probably more
than it is, even including the live stock.
But for the sake of analyzing the mat
ter let us assume that it is correct. As
the population of Kansas is 100000
this means that the average is only
$3.50 per family A wonderful pros
perity, that. Not enough to buy a col
lar for some of the pet dogs of the
plutocraey. The census of 1890 gives
the value of the lands, fences, build
ings and machinery of Kansas farms
at s578, $780, 1886, it means that family
with skill and capital of 1925 are only
able, in the most prosperous year
to get a gross income from their labor
of $685. Wonderful prosperit yl Then
when you take into consideration that
q large part of the population are non
producers and get the largest income
this will still farther reduce the magni-
fcent prosperity of the bloated, pluto
cratic farmer, When the farmers pay
the salaries and expenses of thousands
of officers, the interest on s235, 100000
of home and farm mortgages, they can
give fancy balls that will rival the
Bradley Martins-I don't think. The
farmer is expected to be prosperous
