Prosperity item from Klondiks Tyre:
@Our esteemed townsmaB, Bub Gravel,
placed upon our desk yesterday a
handsomely shaped nugget. II weigh
cd twenty-seven pounds. We have
credited him With three months sub

to see that Mr.. Gravel, who is one Of

Msrriagable spinsters who cOntem-
plate going to Klondike with a hope OF
catching on can secure q few valuable
pointers by having confidential chat
with their married sisters. Take for
example. that enemy Of domestic bliss,
cold feet. Consider how they raise the
deuce in a moderate winter climate.

or nuggets attached to a husband will
compensate for the living touch of the

TIE REPUBLIC has always commended
that the farmers of western Kansas
we're the most honest people in the
world and that contention is being
proven correct every day. Men who
have had no money for five years are
selling their first load Of wheat and
paying debts with the money, and debts
which we're contracted in flush times
when "next year" was thought TO be as
good as bank to draw on. These men
take pride in meeting an obligation
overdue perhaps, but if so, through in
ability to pay and not dishonesty.

The Russian government recent,
sent to this country two representa-
tives to study scientific methods 0
farming in operation in the Unitet
States. These two gentlemen hav
spent some time in looking over th
western farming country with Nj

system of soil culture, and are of th
belief that farming on scientific priI
