SOUTHWEST KANsAs's CROP.

'I was in southwestern Kansas not long ago." said one of the Colorado representatives yesterday. ''The out look was gloomy. Lots of soil, but lit tie cultivation. The people loked hun gry, and appeared to be waiting for something to turn up in the shape of a benevolent providence to snatch them from their destiny. I got into conversation with an old fellow whok seemed to have sprung out of that sterile soil ages ago, and asked him:
 What in the name of alis blessings do the people manage to live upon in this section?'
 'tThe old fellow never took his hands out of his pockets as he slowly and in perfect good faith replied:
 'Oh, mostly on pensions. '"-Wash- ington Post.

London, June PA special dispatch from Madrid says the minister of ma rine, Senor Aunon, made statement to the effect that Admiral Camara's g squadron will leave Port Said tonight for the Philippine islands. He is also credited with saying he believes the squadron is powerful enough to defeat the ships under Admiral Dewey.

CAUL1FLOWER.

There is no good reason why the farmer should not grow caulifower if he or his family like them better than cabbage. They require no stronger soil, no heavier maturing and no more labor until the time comes for trying up. the heads, and even then the labor is but little, only that they need look ing at almost every day to see when they are just right to tie up for blanch- ing and when they are ready for cut ting. If the garden is where it should be-near the house-this extra care is but a little task, to be done after sup per in small garden.

 We have been entirely satisfied to cOnfine the blessings of government by the people within our own shore lines. No man lives for himself alone, we know; no nation lives for itself. we are learning. There is no way in which we can help weak peoples for whom we may become responsible to a power higher than a concert of nations, than by teaching them to govern them selves and to do something that nobody wants done. We should thoroughly understand the problems of production as they exist in our attitudes, then we shall be prepared to take up what con- ctrns the tropics. Our new responsi- hi1ities have no agricultural colleges or experiment stations. No scientist ever studied the improvement of the coffee tree, for example, in these hot countries; improved machinery has not replaced hand labor. Practical appli- cation of scientific truths will fitly supplement the American principles of government. Young men who are educated along these lines are in de- mand now; as their value becomes rec |ognized more and more, the demand for them will grow in the islands of the sea. Seven years ago out of three hun dred students there was one in the az recultural courses of the Iowa state college. There are one hundred and fifty now. in an attendance of six hun dred.
 The people of some of the countries of the old world are concluding that literary education is overdone. Uni versity men are so numerous that they jostle each other in the humber walks |of life. We are reaching that condition here I personally know that the Iowa creamery man earns more money than the Iowa dentist; that the horticultur ist earns more than the physician; and that each county in the state has sev- eral farmers any one of whom accum- ulates more money and reads more books than all the lawyers in his coun- tyi I have no doubt people of other states have observed like conditions The country has not room for more professionals; it does need more edu- cated farmers"

Returns to the Paths of Peace.

Col Bryan has resigned from the
United States volunteers and will re-
turn to Lincoln, Neb,, where he will
take up his line of work where he left
off. In an editorial in the Washington
Post, strong administration paper
and a political opponent of Mr.. Bryan,
we find the following comment upon
his designations: I'VE confidently ex-
pect that William j. Bryan's resigna-
ton of the colonelcy of the 3rd Ne
braska regiment will be utilized as a
fresh pretext for covering that much
abused gentleman with reproach and
ridicule. The monometallist organs
have never forgiven him the anguish
and alarm he inflicted on them in
1896, and, even now, the bare mention
of his name is enough to throw them
into an insensate frenzy. When he
volunteered at the call of his country,
he was held up to odium and execra-
ton as a political jobber, using a ma
tional emergency to further his per-
sonal aspirations. Now that he re-
signs, when his country no longer
needs him, he will be made the victim
of new forms of malice and mendacity.
The truth in Mr.. Bryan's case is, in our
opinion at least, that he acted in good
faith and with perfectly unselfish mo.
tives from the beginning. He re-
sponded to the presidents summons
in order to hasten the furnishing
Of Nebraska's quota. He took the
ground that if the nation needed sol.
diers he owed it to himself and to the
flag to set the example of a prompt
and earnest patriotism. He was
young, vigorous, enthusiastic; he was
the most prominent and influential OF
democrats; he went for his own salts
faction and for the encouragement OF
others. Surely no serious and honest
man will claim that Mr.. Bryan had
anything to gain for himself by be-
coming a colonel of a volunteer regi-
ment. We do not expect that reason
and common sense. to say nothing OF
decency and justice, will seal the
mouths of Mr.. Bryan's traducers. As
we have predicted, the work of de-
traction and abuse will speed upon its
merry way, without regard to fact OIL
reason. But honest men, fair-minded
men, and decent men will think OF
all these things, and the ranks of Mr.
Bryan's accusers will be recruited
from those quarters into which his
candidacy, two years ago, brought
such terror and hatred and consterna.
ton"
For his determination to leave the
army now Col. Bryan is only to bt
applauded. He stuck to his post un.
til the peace declaration was signed
and all the danger of another conflict
was past. He has done his whole
duty. Other obligations now con
front him.

About week ago Tom McEntee re-
ceived a personal letter from j. Singer,
leading furrier of London, England,
who urged the proprietors of the farm
to ship their furs direct to London.

and increase their profits materially
Thus can be realized the far reaching
effects of newspaper advertising, and
while the Lacon cat farm is nothing
but hoax, any bona fide business so
advertised would have become as
widely known.

WOULD YOU DOUBT
Statements of Your Best Citizens and Old
est Inhabitants Here Il One Who
Has Lived in Rock Island
For Forty Yeara.


Do you suppose a man like
George Downing, of 909 Seventh ave-
nue., who has lived in Rock Island for
40 years, would turn around and tell
you that Morrow's Kid-ne-oids are
beyond all doubt the best remedy to
be found for kidney complaint and
backache if it were not so? We think
not. 1t does not seem reasonable, but
it does look reasonable that a man
like Mr.. Downing would be glad to
let every sufferer know that his back
ache would be cured by using Nor
rows Kid-ne oids. Mr.. Downing has
tried this remedy himself for back
and kidney disorder. He obtained a
box at Bahnsen's drug store and used
them with such good results that he
felt it his duty to let his friends know
what to take when afflicted in this
way. Here is his true story as given
to our representative: 1.-Two years
ago had a fall and struck by back on
a step and in ured it pretty badly.
thought had cured it entirely and
for several months felt all right, but
about year ago it began to bother
me considerably. At first l paid no
attention to it, but it became so bad
l could scarcely get about. The lame
ness was across the small part in the
region of the kidneys. l took medi-
cine and used ointments of different
kinds and also plasters, but none of
them did me any good whatever.
"Iheard about Morrow's Kid-ne-oids
and thought 1 would give them trial
although 1 had little faith in patent
medicines. l got box at Bahnsen' s
drug store and began to use them as
directed. l began to get better in a
day or so after taking them, and can
say they are the only things L have
tried that have given me any relief
1 am convinced that my kidneys were
affected, and Kid-ne-oids are certainly
the things that will cure kidney dis

Morrow's Kid-ne-oids are yellow
