MORE WHEAT To- BE SOWN
Kansas Farmers Arc Encouraged to the
Extent of Eighteen Fer Cent.

Topeka. Kan. Sept. e-The state
board OF agrlculre reports that the esti-
mate OF one month ago OF a 10 per cent
increase In the acreage OF wheat that
would be sown this fall Is now set for
ward by the farmers to IS per cent (nO
one county reporting a decrease) which
would make an aggregate OF 3.94o,l70
acres Such an enlarged sowing will
be mainly due 70 rapid advance In prices
during the month and the encourage
ment found in having previous estimates
on this years yield borne out by me
threshing machines and scales. Should
the soil continue. as now. so dry as to
interfere seriously with blowing and
seeding until late the contemplated in
crease will hardly be realized.

The Santa Fe is making some needed
improvements al its yards and at the

Fe has about twenty-five miles of side
track in the yards here, 1t is INSULT
cient to accommodate the business done
here. This morning Yardmaster Reed

ments A lot OF new siding is 10 be put
in and double tracq is be made all
the way from the Santa Fe shops to

Then the depot platform is to be ex-
tended across the two tracks. The first
track will be used for south bound trains
and the second track for east bound

FOIn the Ddl4y ODurlSE,
Flynn D. Watkins of Dexter took an
overdose of Hydrate Of chlora! Saturday
with suicidal intent and died a short
time afterwards from the effect. He was
1t the Arkansas City reunion the day be-
fore and was somewhat under the in
fiuence Of liquor, but there was no evil
dence 10 show that he was drunk. He
was known to be an habitual user of OPT
ates and the effect on his system was
undoubtedly the direct cause Of his
deatht. He was young man abo,-: %
years old, a son Of William Wilkins,
highly respected citizen, and brother
Of J. H. Watkins of the Bank of Dexter.
He was married but he and his wife were
separated. At about o'clock Saturday
morning his father went into his sons
bed room and found him sitting on the
bed writing. He conversed with his IA

pocket remarked that "a teaspoonful
was saidt be a fatal dose, but ne want
ed 10 go easy and took it ALL" Medical
aid was summoned but no relief could
be afforded. He died in few minutes
without assigning any cause for the

said a good one, and his labor was al
ways in demand. 4 coroner's jury COM
posed of Eli Reed, William Greenwich,
J. S. Day, o. P. Darst. George Jackson
