To help Western Kansas.

The federal government and the
state agricultural department are
uniting in an effort to determine the
best method Of developing the buffalo
grass, the nutritious covering Of the
western part Of this state and others
that reach into the semi.arid region.
1t is exceedingly valuable for pasture,
but 1t grows in spots and lunches SO
that 1t takes ten to sixteen acres to
support one steer through season.
II 1t were solid over the ground the
pasture value would be more than
doubled and it would mean a great
deal to western farmers. The exper-
iments are being carried on near Har-
per where different methods OF tillage
are being tested in order to increase
the yield Of the grass. A school for
the study Of agriculture in the semi.
arid section will be established at the
old Fort Hays reservation by the state
agricultural college. The encourage.
ment given to sugar beet raising in
the past is bearing fruit in the large
acreage that is being put out along
the Arkansas river valley. The indi-
cations are that in few years the
whole valley will be given up to this
industry and the raising Of alfalfa
The latter is proving almost a saliva
ton to the western farmers as they
are able to take three or four crops a
year off the land and can iatten stock
on the pasture.

Eldorado Republican: when the
cold wave oomes-and 1t will come;
when financial distress hits every
business man in the land-and it will
hit; when the seven lean kline are
turned loose--and they will be turn.
ed-all the blooming idiots who have
blown their millions and billions into
these balloon trusts will be annihilat-
ed as quickly as doll paper house in
a Texas tornado; while the distress to
be brought upon the country will
cause-if not revolution something
very nearly approaching one. Judg-
ment day will come to all these bill
lion dollar hot air schemes and it will
come with a force and power that
will shake the financial world from
end to end; and the fortunes that will
be swallowed up will be counted by
the billions. We have had panics be-
fore but all Of them combined will not
be patching compared to the one
that is bound to follow this criminal
imitation OF everything on earth; and
1t will call out all the cold storage
patriotism in the country to save it
from destruction"

McKinlsy's Kansas Tour.

The latest information IN the Nc.
Kinley trip in Kansas is that be will
stop I've minutes in Baldwin and five
minutes in Ottawa which has some
sense in it. Congressman Curtis is
in Washington wrestling with might
and main to get half days stop at
Topeka. Why should Mckinley stop
that long at TopekaP Topeka is not
even the political headquarters Of
the state any more. All the old SOL.
diers will be at Junction City that
day and there should be the longest
stop in the state. Mr.. Curtis is not
likely to please the old soldiers over.
much by trying to make the principal
stop at Topeka.

CUBAN COMMITTEE.
II Arrives In This Country on Its Way to
Washington-Gen. Portuondo Defines
Cuba's Position.

Jacksonville, Fla, April 24.-The
Cuban constitutional committee,
which arrived here Monday night, left
yesterday for Washington. Gen. Ra-
fael Portuondo, one Of the commit
tee, defined Cuba's position as follows:
"Ninety-nine per cent. Of the Gu
ban people desire absolute independ-
ence. It is their wish that military
occupation by the United States come
to an end at once. 1t may be said
that small element 81 Spaniards,
from q purely commercial motive, IA
vor annexation, but the wish for in
dependence Is felt by many Cubans
and Spaniards alike. Those Spaniards
who favor annexation are not impelled
by any love for the United States.
They hate Americans, but they seem
to wish some sort Of guaranty as to
their property and business interests.
Peace with the Americans without
the independence Of Cuba is impossi-
ble-I mean moral peace. I do not
mean to say that in the event indie
pendence is not granted war or revo-
luton would follow, but there would
be no sympathy, no friendliness be-
tween the peoples"

Tho Foreign Trade Barometer

1t is a remarkable fact, says the
Globe. Democrat, that while the ex-
cess Of merchandise exports over i'm.
ports was over 1888, 100000 in the
lO7 years from the beginning Of the
government down to the year Of Pres
ident McKinley's first Inauguration,
the excess in the four years SINCE
then has been $2,l5O,OOO,OO0. The
favorable balance Of trade, that is to
say, has ben nearly six times as great
during the present administration as
1t was in all the previous presidencies
from the beginning Of Washingt MS
days along to the end Of Cleveland's.
At the outset In the governments
career the country commonly bought
more merchandise abroad than 1t sold
there. All the manufacturing which
was done in this country was Of the
crudest kind. Most Of the fabrics Of
all sorts which were consumed In the
United States had to be bought In
England or some other European
country. In every Inauguration year
along to Madison's second induction
into office, in 1918, the balance in the
foreign trade was against this country.
In that year the British blockade Of
the chief ports Of the Atlantic coast.
which lasted through the latter part
Of the war Of 1925, materially d.
minished the country's purchases
abroad, though it did not have quite
as serious an effect on its sales. That
blockade and the double duty which
was levied on imports during those
years started up manufacturing in
this country.
More has been done, however, sinte
the close OF the war OF secession in
the way OF development Of American
industries than was ever accomplished
before that time. The Wing party Of
lSS4-54 passed some protective tariff
acts, but the real expansion in manu-
featuring has taken place since the
foundation Of the Republican party,
although opposition to slavery exten.
sion and not the tariff was the Repub.
lican party's chief concern in Its
early days. With the development
Of manufacturing at home the coun-
try's purchases abroad began to
diminish relatively to its sales, and
the adverse trade balances, which had
been the rule until third OF a cen.
fury ago, gave way to balances in
favor Of this country. In the calen.
dar year 1900 the favorable balance
was the largest, s649, 900, 900, Of any
year in the country's history. The
extent Of Americas commercial con.
quests in the rest Of the world in the
past four years, which has made the
favorable balance in that time ~, $780,
900, 900, is one Of the marvels OF the
ape.
