II Is known that brood Of chicks
that are apparently well will suddenly
begin to droop and die, especially when
the weather Is very warm. In such
cases the cause Is usually lice. There
may be no lice on the chicks when ex-
amined on one day, yet In two or three
days more they may have the large lice
on their heads. In the first symptoms OF
droopiness rub a drop OF lard on the
hend of each chick and dust IL well with
insect powder. Then treat the hen In
tho same manner. as lice go from the
hen to the chicls.-Farm and Fireside.

A WORD ABOUT HAY.

The Dingley law protects hay.
Whether the duty will be such as win
force Kansas hay TO the great centers
or not it will enhance the price more Or
less. Hay is one of the leading pro
duets Of Kansas, although seldom Ia
ken into the estimate and little talked
about. Prairie hay is one of the most
nutricious and animals used to it pre-
fer il to any other The hay crop OF
the United States is worth more than
any other crop except corn. 1t often
amounts to more than 5000, 900 tons.
In many years the crop has been worth
$500, 600 or upwards. It Is grown
in a great number Of states, and all
classes of farmers are interested in the
yield of the hay fields
The news that the hay crop Of 1897
is likely to prove the largest grown in
the entire history of the United States
is, therefore, an item of immense i'm
pnrtance. 1t means another long step
toward general property and deadly
blow dealt rhe luckless calamity howl
ers Of The Bryanites. Like the big yield
of wheat and the discovery of new and
rich gold fields, IT is good fortune for
the American people and the world, but
ruin for politicians whose hopes are
founded on hard times and discomfort.

DRIES THEM UP.

With the knowledge that the triumph
Of the Republican party in November,
protective tariff would be speedily en-
acted, the Sugar Trust. born of the Will
son bill. commenced the importation of
raw sugars on an enormous scale. The
trust redoubled its efforts in that direc-
ton when II became certain that Nc
Kinley would not wait for the regular
session OF congress. The great sugar
industry OF the country could not be
projected without benefiting the COM
bination which had taken time by the
foreIock and stored up years supply
in advance at the cost Of many millions
Of dollars. The house put forth Its best
efforts to beat the plans of the trust
The senate sought the same end by a
different schedule. The Democratic
papers keep harping away that both
house and senate were in the hands Of
the Sugar Trust McEnery. the Demo
cratic senator from Louisiana, who

MORE ABOUT WHEAT

The Eagle has ventured several edi-
torial predictions that despite the great
crop OF this year wheat would not only
hold It's present advanced price but
probably advance. for which opinions
reasons were advanced. AS Kansas Is.
at least this year. more interested in
the price Of wheat than In that of any
other crop, the question loses none of
its interest. The wheat yield OF the
state is turning out better when thresh-
ed than was estimated as a standing
crop. That the farmers of Kansas will
have fifty millions of bushels or more
for sale. there seems no question. Every
cent OF price added, therefore, IN the
aggregate means much.
Bradstreet's weekly totals show that
in four weeks of July the clearances OF
wheat and -four from American ports
aggregated S,346,547 bushels. against
1o,S53.553 bushels during the CORES
ponding period last year The smaller
clearances do not indicate that there
was less demand this season: they
are largely due 10 the fact tLat the har
vest was late, and that the movement
is backward in comparison with that Of
last year. The activity OF The foreign
demand for grain IS illustrated by the
heavy chartering movement IN ocean
tonnage during last month. The New
York Journal OF Commerce on Saturday
last reported freight engagements from
the Atlantic ports during July for up
ward OF 25OO0.ooo bushels Of grain.
have been chartered 10 carry grain from
Atlantic and gulf ports. These vessels
will MOI all carry wheat, as there is also
an active export demand for corn; but
4 considerable percentage of the char
ters has undoubtedly been taken for the

temporary squirt but that It Will CON

TOPPER TOPEKA

Toneka as a city is The steadiesf topper

Kansas 10 attempt a violation OF the
prchibitory law by an ordinance OF LII
disguised subterfuge. While the lars

I'D the greatest racket over the non
enforcement of the law by other toWhs.
Pluming itself on being extra moral and
an example of true temperance, it Is
nevertheless a notorious fact that II Is
the most immoral and besotted munlcl-
nality between Kansas City and Den
yer. From reading its papers one
might be led TO the conclusion that no
local interest save that of the enforce
ment and non enforcement of the pro
hibitory law ever commanded the atten-
ton of that people. One day one pa
Der will declare that the place is full OF
whisky-ioints and open saloons, and

forced. Club houses. o. N. Il. lodges,
