Haughey to be Manager.

The Sumner County jubilee COM
mittee held a meeting at Rem &
Newbold's Office Monday night, and de-
Cided to employ John W. Haughey to
act as a sort OF general manager OF
the Jubilee arrangements. Mr..
Haughey will devote his time TO the
work Of helping the different CON-
mitJees to push the work connected
with the Jubilee. This is a good
move sn the part Of those having the
celebration in charge, as it will help
to simplify the work, and it will
place 1t IN such condition as to keep
the work going right along without
any hinderaDce.
No new attractions have yet been
secured for the midway, but the CON-
mittee in charge Of the midway at
fractions are figuring with several
parties, and it is thought several
more features will soon be ADDED.
There is no doubt that the Sumner
County Jubilee aud Wheat Carnival
is going to be the very warmest thing
that was ever pulled off in this county
and the way the promoters of the
celebration are working is a guaran'
tee of the fact that everything rs
going to be right up to expectations

FIGURING OUT THE YIELD.
Some Facts About the Wheat Crop Of 1900
aud Former Years.

In 1892, when Kansas produced her
largest output OF wheat, the area
soWn was 4, l29, ,829 acres, and the yield
1906 bushels per acre. In five other
years the states average has ranged
from q to 2229 bushels per acre, the
latter in 1882. The area harvested
this year is approximately 4,4OO, 900
acres, including say ll5,OOO acres Of
spring wheat. The condition OF these
fields June 2, according to their own
ers, on a basis of 100 being gO)d and
satisfactory, ranged from 81 to Ill,
averaging but shade below lOl. If
they thrash out II, IS, or 20 bushels
per acre, no one need be a professor
of mathematics or much Of a light
ming calculator to arrive at the aggre-
gate, or what royal sum il means
at say 60 cents per bushel.
The government census OF 1850
credited Kansas with a production OF
l68,527 bushels of wheat in that year.
The average yield cannot be told, as
no record OF the number Of acres
planted is retained.
In 1870, at the close of The ten-year
per cd which included the Civil war,
the report Of the United States de-
Z parLment OF agriculture gave Kansas
a wheat area for the year Of l56,2OO
acres, an average yield per acre OF
Is bushels, and a total product of
2,343,OO bushels.
The state decennial census Of 1875,
taken by the state board OF agTicul'
ture, gave total wheat area in that
year of 743, ,206, of which winter wheat
mad 505,6S2 acres, and spring wheat
237, ,524 acres. The winter wheat area
averaged fraction less than 20 BUSH
els per acre, giving total product of
10,046, ,ll6 bushels; spring wheat aver
aged a little over 1873 bushels pei
acre, and yielded a total of 1888, ,8I
bushels. The increase in the wneal
product for this 6ve-year period is
thus shown to be 464 per cent,
The season OF 1880 was a most un'
favorable one for wheat production
which accounted for the falling of OF
nearly five million bushels on the next
years showing, or about II per cent
The report Of the state board Of
agriculture for 1880, while showing
that the area of winter wheat had
increased during the fve-year period
proceeding, considerably more than
three fold, also disclosed that the
area Of spring wheat was less than
five years previous. In 1880 the
2,2l5,9 ,937 acres Of winter wheat made
an average yield OF nearly II bushels
per acre-a total product of %, 507, ,22a
bushels. The 220,479 acres OF spring
wheat yeielded LIZ 66l bushels.
While the wheat area increased in
the fve.year period about 23O pei
cent, the product increased but 1O(
per cent, the season OF 1880, as stated
being most unfavOrable.
In 1882, the wheat crop reached
35,734, ,S46 bushels, and it was con
sidered extraordinary, and truly was

Conway Springs Star: Some of the
threshers who came in from Indiana
To help tnresh our wheat crop,
discovered that threshing machines
which they had been using in Indiana
would not do the work in Kansas.
The teeth in the cylinders and con-
caves didn't run close enough to knock
the wheat out of the heads and they
are having plenty Of trouble. One
man who brought a large machine
from Boone county, IndianA, at con-
siderable expense, went to Wichita
Thursday and bought new separator
and has quit trying to work his
HOosier machine. It's a fact thai

shade trees in Conway Springs made

Gambler of the Methodist Church

revivalists and revivals, and the case
of the well known eXhorter Sam Jones
was brought up.
'"The best characterization of Sam
Jones' preaching I ever heard" said
the bishop, twas that of good colored
brother in Virginia. He had just heard
Jones preach and was describing it to
some of his fellows.
"'Jist as long as Bre'r Jones sticks to
de Scripters,' said the colored man, he
amt no better preacher than eny Nv de
rist Nv us, but when he cuts loose frum
de Scripters an jist let's 'er sail den he's
