The new silver certificates of the de-
nomination of 81 will be issued. The
portrait Of Lincoln will be the central fig

ures, plain and distinct. The back will be
similar to the present 81 certificates, with
a liberal display of white paper. but will
contain even more artistic lathe work,
done by the best machinery in the bureau
of engraving and printing. The effort is
being made, in substituting new designs
for the present gracefully drawn models,

with lace. She has woven silk under
vests, appliqued with real lace butter

in silk, with vest cutaway beneath, so
that the embroidered design is more
or less transparent. Her petticoats are
all made of satin and trimmed with
cobweb embroidery, real lace ribbon,
and are so exquisite and novel in design
that they are fit for the skirt of a ball
gown.

MORE CORN AND LESS HOGS.
Secretary COburn Gives Results OI
His Investigation.
HOW PROFITS MAY Be WON,

Topeka, Sept. 1s,--Kansas has a
much largcr supply than usual Of the
very best meat-producing foods this
year, and the all-lmportant question
now is how IL may best be utilized or
disposed OF, Probably the first prop
osltion TO be considered viii be the
probable profit OF sending 1t to market
via the live stock route, and hence the
combination of nm immense corn crop,
abundance OF all kinds of forage,
and the high price Of stock animals,
has caused much speculation as TO the
probable number Of cattle and hogs
which will be grain-fattencd In the
state this coming fall and winter
Realizing the public interest and
value Of information along this line,
Secretary +. ID. Coburn, of the state
board of agriculture, has made inquir-
les OF leading stock growers feeders
and farmers, located principally in the
foremost corn and stock counties, with
n view to asccrtaining what, in their
Judgment, Is likely to be done in this
direction, compared with last years
operations; II stock cattle and hogs are
considered too high for probable profit
In fattcning, with grain and fat stock
prices as at present, and what feeders
will likely have to pay for corn deliv-
bred in their feed lots, between now
Ind Christmas.
A summing pof the reports received
Show that in many Of the larger cattle
counties there is likely to be an in
creased number fattcned over last year,
and in others more or less of decrease,
while apparently there is general
scarcity of hogs, and the number for
winter fattening is almost without eX-
ception reported less.
