wild Onion in Pastures.

The wild onion is the bane of the
pastures, but it can be eradicated en-
tirely if attention is given it. One
If the remedies suggested for the
wild onion odor in milk is to stable
the COWS about three o'clock and give
hay, allowing their regular food as
usual. The odor will pass off in the
secretions in three or four hours.
Every season, however, the wild onion
regularly appears and increases, yet
the pests are easily destroyed by pull
.ng them up or keeping them cut
down. This may be tedious for
awhile, but pays well in the end.

Supposed Anarchists Held.

Washington, Aug. 17.-Chief Wiki
OF the United States secret service,
stated to-day that two Italians, Nat
able Maresca and Michil Guida, had
been detained at Quarantine, New
York harbor, by his orders.
Their deportation TO Naples, Italy,
will be recommended to the Secretary
OF the Treasury.
On Aug. i. this government was
advised from Naples that Marescs,
an anarchist. was about to leave for
the United States, and that he might
attempt to attack the president
Nhereupon an investigation was
made, and while it could not be de-
termined that Maresca was an an
archist, it was developed that bewas
convict. On the arrival OF the
Kaiser Wilhelm III. last evening, Mar
esca and his companion, Guida were
turned over 70 the immigration au-
thorities, with a request that they
be depOrted. Guida's antecedents
are now being investigated.

FOR REVENUE ONLY.

Some time ago we received from an
advertising agency in the east a copy
OF an article by Rev. Sam z. Jones.
from the Manufacturers Record
Baltimore, Md, entitled 1.-The Trusts
and the People, with REQUEST to
publish. No fault can be found with
the article as a literary production.
for it was evidently prepared with
great care, and many rough edges
and vulgar expressions of that noted
and sensational divine are left OFF.
1t reads well and argues plausibly
and learnedlv in favor of the trusts
We wonder what commercial value
was placed on that article bv and
between the Rev. Samuel and the
trusts. 1t must have been n BIG pile.
for 1T Is not only a lengthy article
that took time and brains to pre-
pare, but value would be placed on
the writer's profession. for after a
man gets to be a big preacher, he
would expect big pay to help tb.
devil out OF a sorry scrape. and We
have no doubt the Rev. Sans ser
wees were worth whatever value he
placed on them. We have noticed
the article in number of republican
papers, but so far we have not found
1t IN democratic or populist paper
Possibly, later on the trusts viii
have 1t published at SO much per
inch with provision in the contract
that all advertising marks be Iafr
on; III Is almost SURE to havea place
IN Hanna campaign book.

GREAT KANSAS WHEAT CROP.
Ii Is a Record Breaker in Size and the
Farmers Are In Glover.

Topeka, Kas., Aug. 19.-The
movement of the great Kansas wheat
crop is under way, but the rush will
not begin before Sept. l. The rail-
roads are working night and day
shifts in their shops to get cars ready
for the demand. Ii all the wheat in
Kansas should be shipped at one
time it would require 100, 900 ears
to haul it. This would made a train
73S miles long, one that would reach
half way from Topeka TO New York.
The wheat crop of one county
Saline-is worth $4,000. 900. The
yield of that county is 1900, 900
bushels. 1t would require 1850
ears. or a train twenty-seven miles
long TO haul Saline eounty's crop to
market
Hundreds OF Kansas bows who
have helped harvest this crop will be
