Elaborate experiments in feeding
wheat to farm animals and swine have
been made this year at the Kansas
Experiment Station, and also in other
States Of tho corn belt. The experts
conclude that wheat has greater nutri-
tive value than corn, and may be used
either crushed, mixed with oats or
corn, or in connection with straw in
time of extreme scarcity. The
drought in Kansas has not affected
the wheat crop. and many fsEla.rs
will be compelled either to use their
wheat as fodder or sacrifice their live
stock.

Vienna, July 1S,-The Fremdenblatt,
the organ Of the Austro-Hungarian
foreign office, IN an article entitled;
American Industrial Competition in
the Near Future" says;
European nations win have to COM
bine against a competition which
threatens them, and sinking their diff
ferences, must make a common front
against American Industrial aggres-
sion. The United States are forging
an iron ring Of defense to ward of
the blows Of the enemies Of America.
The tariff program Of the large
manufacturers Of Austria which was re-
Gently presented TO the minister OF
commerce, Is based mainly on prln-
ciple that il universal and unlimited.
The most favored nation clauses should
he abandoned, especially with refer
ence to the United States, and that old
commercial treaty with the United
States, which reaches back 20 the sec
ond decade OF the last century should
be replaced by a new short term treaty.
Salvation In the custom questions with
regard to America is only to be found
along these lines"
II appears that the Fremdenblatt
does not think matters will go so far
as 10 bring about a customs union In
central European achievement which
will long remain an ideal but It will be
enough If common action secures that
most favored nation clauses are not
granted

Cripple Creek Colorado, July 1.-THE
Trans Mississippi Commercial congress
opens today. This locality for as
sembing, this time Of the year, is in it.
self very desirable feature, Cripple
Creek district covering six miles
square, is right on the tops of the
Rockies, far exalted above the hills,
so high that one coming from the way
down valleys cannot hardly breathe. 1t
Is cool and refreshing and gives one
new life and energy. Trains were loaded
ana delegates came In from all quar-
tiers. Today they assemble in the !. q.
o. +. hall, IL is expected there VIII
be fully one thousand members pres
ent. The Short Line from Colorado
Springs to the district is one of the
most remarkable pieces Of engineering
In the world. II consists of a contin-
uous climb from the city OF the plains
to an elevation Of about ten thousand
feet above sea level.
on approaching Cripple Creek the en-
tire district was covered with snow,
some can be seen in the distance now.
IL was amusing last evening to see
men coming from the far south and
Arizona, dressed I'm their linen today
they are out in full-weight black cloth.
The citizens Of Cripple Creek are
not TO be outdone In the clever prep
arations for the comfort and enter
tainment Of their visitors. At head
quarters We were presented with q
gold badge swung on yellow ribbon,
and souvenirs containing the program.
Delegates and visitors are looked af-
ter kindly, and IL is seen that all are
provided with comfortable quarters.
The city is decorated with Stars and
Stripes and during the night illumin-
ated with all colors in a beautiful cleo
trical display. The "Elks' with their
badges, tabled b. z, o. E--'best people
on earth'-are determined TO try at
least to live up TO their motto, This
fraternal organization Is largely at the
head of the entertainment and they
are the boys that know how 20 do It,
Their colors are purple and white. One
would almost imagine the city was
made up Of elks, from the gorgeous
delegations IN those colors.
Cripple Creek has a wonderful rec
ord. In 1891 this district produced
100000 in gold, and has enjoyed a
steady increase from the first years
production to S23, 600 600 last year with
an estimated output for 1901 Of $4,000
900. Cripple Creek for the last ten
years has added TO the worlds supply
Of precious metal over one hundred mill
