favorable prospect for large wheat

crop, and the hay crop is first class.
cleaned out and repaired and division
boxes are berg put in where needed.
This is very pleasing to the water ueers
as il Is great aggravation to see tne

OF the kind that has taken place in

in this office ever since the paper was
established, went to his home in Trib-

Frank McBrde. of the firm Of lanes
Il Mcbride. Wholesale hay dealers, Of
Trinidad, was in town Saturday inter
viewing Supt. P-ttee in regard to the
hay business. He told . CHIAYTAIS r.-
porter that hay is getting to be scarce

supply the trade until new hay comes
on. AS result the price has gone up
to 81 90 per ton.
In proportion TO the size Of the city
IL which 1t is printed. the Kansas City
S'ar has larger circuistion than other
American newspaper. Its remarkable
success has been achieved by its IN.
faltering adherence to the rule OF giving
its readers the best tnat the Stars in
creasing revenues could furnish and its
improved facilities CO uld supply. The
Star was the first newspaper to give its
readers a full weeks papers-six eve
nings and Sunday morning-for ten
cents, q thing that was not prof able
except when done on the big scale on
which The Star does every thing. The
Star was also the first to establish
weekly edition for the trifiing price OF
% cents year; 10000 regular cifcuia-
for the weekly edition demonstrates
the wisdom of the idea.
