sWINDLED THE FARMERS.
A Doctor Secures the Notes of Paw.
nee County Farmers for AIleg-
ed Services.

Larned, Jan. 29.-Dr. F. Bosch, who
claims to represent a medical institute,
infirmary and Sanitarium at Chicago,
has been working the farmers of this
county.
He convinced a large number of far
mers that they were uncOnsciOusly suf-
fering from extremely complicated and
very dangerous maladies, and contract
ed to treat and guarantee to cure them
for a stipulated number of dollars, to
be paid from 80 days to nine months af-
ter date, according to the length of the
treatment desired.
These promises to pay for said treat
ment were put in the shape of notes,
which the doctor promptly discounted,
and left for other fields. Notes ranging
all the way from $25 to $3.50, and ag-
gregating a thousand to fifteen hundred
dollars, have come into the possession
of purchasers here, and the farmers
who gave them have no recourse.

FEW HARDY WHEATs.

Bulletin No. of the Kansas Agricul-
turaI college experiment station which
relates to the result obtained in the
cultivation of wheat last year, is out and
contains the following summer y:
1. Wheat grown continuously with
out manure on a measured acre, for II
years in succession, has produced an
average yearly yield of 1857 bushels.
The crop was completely winter-killed
during three of these years, so that on
" IA crops were harvested, and two of
them were partly winter-killed. The
average yield of the IA crops harvested
is %. 76 bushels.
2. Subsoiling for wheat has not bene-
flied the yield. It has, on the contra
ry, apparently reduced the yield over
that on surface-plowed ground in near
" every instance it has been tried.
8. As to the time of seeding wheat,
the results of the past seasons expert
ments confirm those of former years.
The best yields were obtained from
seedlings made about the third week in
September.
T. The rotation experiments are just
beginning to give results, though they
have not run long enough as yet to
warrant definite conclusions. They do
show, however, that a yearly applica-
ton of 20 tons of barn-yard manure to
the acre is decidedly detrimental,in that
it causes an excessive growth Of straw
and a failure to develop kernel.
5. The rotation experiments in which
wheat is followed by some Ieguminous
catch-crop, sOwn as soon as the wheat
is harvested and removed or plOwed
under in time to again SOW the ground
to wheat that same fall, have only just
been begun, the past year being the on
ly season in which wheat has been
grown on this plan. The wheat seeded
on soy-bean stubble gave the best
yields.
6. The test of varieties is of special
interest the present year, in that it
shows the comparative hardness of
some so leading varieties grown at the
station for several years. Out of the
whole number, only the Turkey, Tas-
manian Red and Crimean withstood the
severe freeze in November so as to
yield at the rate of ten bushels or more
per acre. ...,.-

J. G. Waters Attorney in An Interest
ing Suit From Jefferson County.
Oskaloosa, Jan. 29.-W. F. Gilluly,
was at Topeka this week and, in con-
nectiOn with Capt Waters, prepared a
brief in the Haenky-W eishaar case IN
the supreme court.
When Mrs. Weishaar Of Norton town
ship, many years ago agreed to marry
John Haenky of Leavenworth. they
made an ante-nuptial contract that the
S0-acre Weishaar farm in Jefferson
county, together with all that might be
added to it by future labOrs of the fam
lily, should be the property of the sur
viving one of the welded couple after
the death of the other, and should then
revert in equal portions to Mrs. Welsh
aar'S five sons and to any children that
that might result from the union. One
son was born to the Haenkys and grew
to manhood; the farm grew to 320 acres;
the boys scattered out to farms of their
own; the mother died; the father grew
feeble, and, mentally unable to do bus
mess; he spent his last days with his
son Frank, in AtchisOn, and died there.
Some time after his death, Jos Welsh
aar went to Atchison and asked Frank
about a settlement and division.
Frank expressed surprise and said there
was none to make, that he owned the
farm himself
Investigation showed that the old
man had decided the farm to Frank,
who had subsequently put two mort
cages on it, borrowing between two and
three thousand dollars on it. Suit in
the district court gave the Weishaar
boys the farm and it was sold for IS, 600,
subject of course to the mortgages.
