Too Much Pork. Not Enough Fat.

Without doubt the TAT In pork is about
as hard to digest as anything can be. A
person has to have q strong digestion and
must be engaged in hard work in order
to take care of this food, although 1t is
true a large number of persons depend
upon it Especially through the cold
weather. The fact is, however, that as
rule fat is largely. deficient in our food;
that is, a fat which can be easily digested
and promptly assimilated by the system.
Cod liver oil, as we find it In SCOTS
Emulsion, is the most easily digested of
all fats; it is just the food the body must
have to give it nerve power, brain power
and digestive power

No CALAMITY NOW
KANSAS IS TOO BUSY WITH ITS
AMAZING WHEAT
CROPS.
Some Figures Given to Show What an
Enormous Thing This Years Har-
vest Is-A Chinese Wall of Wheat
?
Cars Could be Built Around the
State.

Trains carrying the 1900 wheat crop
Of Kansas, if distributed along the
state lines, would form a chinese wall
extending nearly tive-siXths of the dis
the Chinese idea of walling itself in,
i could almost complete the work with
cars Of wheat Of one years crop. The
trains would stretch a distance of a lit
tie over $50 miles, while the distance
around the state is a trifle more than
l,2O0 mills. A solid train on the San
Ia Fe from Wichita to Galveston would
not carry all the Kansas wheat, nor
would trains carrying the total crop
be stored on the main lines of both
the Santa Fe and Burlington between
Kansas City and Chicago. No wheat
on its main lire. all it's sidetracks and
its yards.
1t would require 5.2O5 trains of IS
ears each to carry the wheat of Kan
sas. These figures are based upon
standard box cars of a length of thir-
ty-three feet, inside measurement. or
thirty-three feet eight inches out
side, allowing two feet four inches for
coupling, of thirty-siX feet from coup
ling to coupling. Twenty-Five cars
would extend a distance of 900 feet,
the engine drawing them would aver
age seventy feet in length, and a ca
boose for trainmen would De thirty
feet long. a total distance of !, 900 feet
for each train.
1t would take 6,326 of these trains Il
occupy, standing, each touching an
other. to cover a distance equal to that
of the four state lines of Kansas. A
wall around Kansas, thus constructed,
would have a thickness of nine feet ten
and three fourths inches and a height
of thirteen feet eight and one-half
inches. the standard width and height
over all Of thirty-three-foot cars.
The average of the cars now in the
grain service exceeds thirty-three feet,
many being as long as fifty feet, and the
capacity exceeds that figured in this
estimate, the board of trade having
lately increased its estimate of aver
age capacity, upon which the volume Of
wheat receipts are based, to 500 in
stead Of $50 bushels. This increase in
the estimated average was due to the
heavier equipment now generally in
use, but the old average of $50 bushels
to a car was for an average capacity
somewhat exceeding the standard. This
standard is an old one, and 600 bushels
to a standard car loaded at shipping
stations in Kansas is not out Of the
way, while twenty-five cars to the av-
erage train may be rather too liberal IN
estimate.-Kansas City Star.

A feeling Of citation is Very percep-
tible around the Office of Assistant
Superintendent Whitney this morn-
ing.
A telegram was received early today
that the Union Pacific hold-ups are at
Price, Utah, and will be captured. This
report comes from a reliable source
and is a reasonable one in every way.
The trail Of the bandits led i'll The di-
rectiJn of titan and about sufficient
time has now elapsed for them to ave
reached this Gavorite locality of men
of that character.
Part of the posse that left the scene
of the robbery a few hours after it &C.
Cured is still out. The men who have
returned report great difficulty in keep
ing the tail but say that there is no
question the posse was on the right
track. Down in the country between the
Bear and the Snake rivers the f%ugitives
resorted to the old trick Of running
into a bunch of range horses and rid
ing with them a long distance, thus
destroying their own trail. A little
later the trail was picked up again.
A horse was found hat had evidently
belonged to the robbers for it had
been ridden nearly to death. The horse
bore a brand that was recognized by
Marshal Hadsel and this clue will be
followed up later.
Marshal HadSel went to Saratoga yes
terday to investigate the report sent
in from Grand Encamnment that four
men answering the description of the
h%old-urs had been seen there. In view
Of today's information from Utah these
could not have been the four men who
are wanted.
Superintendent Rogers of the Pa
cific Express company. has returned
to Salt Lake from a trip TO the scene
Of the recent hold-up neal Upton. He
is much gratified over the fact hat his
company suffered practically no loss as
far as goods and money in transit is
concerned.
THE Pacific Express company" said
Mr.. Rogers. lost just 5000 in cash
and two packages of jewely. One of
these packages was valued at $40 and
the other had no valuation attached to
it, but we know it was cheap stuff.
The money Was in three packages, one
of Si2, II of S. and one of $40.
The robbers took thirty-nine pack
ages from the safe. All of these. eX-
c2pt the ones l have mentioned, con-
tanned Cancelled baggage checks. tissue
foreign line billings and express COM
papy communications, all of which can
he duplicated. l would liked to have
heard what those robbers said when
they started to divide theid swag.
THE amount of money and property
lost, while Insignificant, will in no way
affect the chase for the criminals. They
will be searched for as thoroughly and
run down as surely as if they had got
ten thousands of dollars. When once
the railroad and express companies
get after robbers you may be sure they
will get them if it takes a hundred
years"
