HOT IN THE SOUTHWEST
KANSAS CORN FIELDS WITHERING
UNDER TIE BLAZING SUN.


TOPEKA, Kan, July 9.-The hot
weather In Kansas continues with no
immediate chance of relief Corn has
withstood the ravages of the heat until
yyesterday. Now it is fast shriveling up
and the prospect is anything but prom
ising to the farmers.
The oats crop is worse than a failure
and hay is scarcer than for years. In
Western Kansas the conditions are bet
ter than in the eastern part, this being
directly opposite to the usual state of af-
fairs. Some OF the central Kansas
farmers are shipping their stock to West
ern Kansas 80 as to take advantage
of the superior hay crop.
1t is estimated than Kansas will suf-
fer crop losses from the protracted heat
ed spell to the extent of $10,O00,OC0. This
figure will be even larger If the heat
continues "a few days longer, as then
there will be absolutely no help for the
corn.
Some Of today's temperatures were:
Topeka 10S, Salina 1902. Abilene 10Y, Usage
City 1OS, Lawrence 1900 Fort Scott 10S.
Sedan 106 Hays City and Manhattan
1O5.
Prospects for immediate rain have been
dispelled, and second hot wave is
upon Kansas
KANSAS CITY, Mo-, July o.
This is the hottest day since the
weather bureau was esta blished, the Of
fetal thermometer recording 1894 de-
grees. long spell of hot weather Is
looked for. But for the low humidity
there would be many prostrations. but
only one was reported today. The high
est temperature in Kansas yesterday was
1OS, at Toronto. At Donovan, Kan,
farmer died in the harvest field today.
Receipts of hogs at the stock yards to-
day-oficial count-were 30,O33 and broke
all records, The big receipts are due
in part to the dry weather, which is
making feed scarce and drying up tie
ponds. There were more than 1900 cat
tie on sale, many Of them forced on by
the dry weather.

SHALL GIRLS CO TO COLLEGE.
world Ned q Literal EdVcation.
Chicago Record Herald

Women who Enter the wage-.arninK
world Ned Literal Edveation.
Chicago Record Herald
An amazing amount of educatiOn-
al sense and wise, gracious counsel
are crowded into an article in the
current number Of the Independent
on collcgo eduratiOn for girls by
HelOise Edwina IIsr-ey, graduate
Of Vassar and formerly a teacher in
Smith College.
The writer diSpOacs at once of the
question a. To- whether a girl should
go To college or not by declaring
that ''there il no doubt that it l. be-
coming an obstacle to women who
must enter the wage-earning world
not To have what L. called liberal
education" With her there is no
room for controversy upon this
point. The profession Of teaching
IL slowly being closed to- all those
who have not the requisite college
degree, and Miss lIersey believes
that other professions viii follow
suit. fla woman expects to occupy
a position Of responsibility and profit
she must prepare for it by going to
college. While the highest and
noblest sphere Of woman il the home,
IL IL very plain that every girl, I'M
der present conditions, must face the
contingency of being called upon to
earn her own living.
Among the gains Of the college
life Miss Hersey places first "the
trained mind" She demolishes
the old-time notion that college edu-
cation means merely an accumulation
of knowledge. Efficiency is the all
important thing. What graduate
can do il of far more importance
than what she knows. When a
woman has been out of college five
years there is little probability that
she would be able to pass the ex-
animation for the freshman year.
The most important element acquir-
ed is "the general knowledge OF the
sweep and trend Of the worlds his
tory which the classics and the litera-
lures Of our own language and of
other languages may give US.
Among other advantages enumer.
ated by the writer are the executive
experience gained in the miniature
life Of the college, the great privi-
lege of friendship, and the noble
gift of loyalty and devotion to the
alma mater with which the college
imbues the student.
OF course, it follows that so keen
a student of education does not be-
lieve in co educational institutions,
because they interfere with the
cultivation of those friendships
which she extols in college life. If
girl selects co educational college,
however, she should choose one
where the idea of wOmanliness
dominates the education of women.

Only a Mask.

Many are not being benefited by
the summer ZION as they should
be. Now, Notwithstanding much
outdoor life, they are little II any
stronger than they were. The tan
on their faces Is darker and makes
them look healthier, but it is only
a mask. They are still nervous,
easily tired, upset by trif1es, and
they do not eat nor sleep we'll. What
they need Is what tones the nerves,
perfects digestion, creates appetite,
and makes sleep refreshing, and
that is Hoods Sarsaparilla. Pupils
and teachers generally will find
the chief purpose of the vacation
best subserved by this great medi.
cine wich, as we know, builds up
the whole SYSTEM"

Her Revenge.
From the Boston Herald.

From the Boston Herald.
This amusing story is told by the
president of New Bedford bank,
and if it has seen the light of print
/ don't know it. One day not long
ago he and other officers and direc-
tors were engaged in a business meet
ing, held in the directors room of
the bank, and as they believed them .
selves secure from intrusion, were
much surprised to see poor little
waif enter the room, something
would not dare to do under such
conditions. The little girl, stability
clothed and pinched-lOoking, had all
uncOnsciously entered on forbiddtn
ground, but this she didn't realize,
and at once went to the men seated
about the big table, offering them
small cakes of soap for sale. The
very first director whom she APP
preached shook his head, impatient
at the interruption on business, and
said sharply: 81 never use it,"
The tiny peddler, unabashed, went
from man to man, all the others,
out of pity for her wan little figure,
buying of her. AS she started to
leave the room, after thanking each
purchaser, the girl hesitated mo-
ment in front of the director who
never used soap, according to his
own declaration, and, looking him
over from head to foot, said disdain-
fully, "Well, yer look i'll" and then
she swept out like duchess.

BAND TREES WITH COTTON.
Agricultural Department Tells How to
Get Rid of Caterpillars.

Agricultural Department Tells How to
Get Rid of Caterpillars.
The United State Department of
Agriculture announces that the
caterpillar which is doing so much
damage to maple, linden and other
trees is the product of the tussock
moth, so called from the three tus-
socks or tufts of hair so prominent
on the caterpillar. The fact that
the female moth is without wings
tends to simplify somewhat the
methods of prevention, espe cially to
those trees not yet affected.
A broad, thick strip of raw cotton
tied around the trunk and renewed
occasionally will prove effective.
Such banding will be useful also in
cases where the trees have already
been attacked, as many caterpillars
drop from the trees, and the cotton
prevents their return. Such eggs.as
are deposited on the trees are usually
low down on the trunk and kcan
easily be removed by scraping. In
view of this nuisance at the present
time it behooves individual owners
Of trees to take prompt steps Etc
abate it for the present and prevent
it for the future. ..--

entomologist, will furni5h copies.Ol

An Inc vitable Result of Changes In Busi-
ns-. and social Conditions.
From the Atlanta Journal.
The "fresh" young man who feels
Obliged TO carry Il bottle with him
60 all places where he thinks he will
not be ofYere1 something "to wet his
whistle" Is rapidly passing away.
The business world has no place for
him and he Is growing into di=favor
socially. The evidence Of this Is
seen on every hand.
\ few days ago VI. Jules Cambon,
the French Ambassador TO this coun-,
try, said In al interview at Paris in
speaking Of the American people:
"There may be some hypOcrites
among them, but the vast majority
abstain from strong drink"
1t j. plain that the business con-
ditiOns Of to-day require the services
Of sober men. No others need ap-
ply. Great enterprises can only TIE
carried on successfully by those who
utilize fully their natural mental
gifts and their physical energies.
The hard drinker cannot command
the confidence Of business men,
hence those who indulge immOder-
ately in the use of strong intoxicants
sooner or later become lOafers.
1t is a noticeable fact that the
thriftiest communities after they get
settled down to business produce
fewer drunkards than those where
loafing is the rule.
Ambitious men have learned that
success can only come either in bust
ness life or in the professions to those
who keep their wits about them all
the time and preserve themselves 50
as to be able physically to perform
great labor.
This state of things has had its
influence socially for apparent rea-
sons, and hence those who at dinners
and other social entertainments ha-
bitually indulge to the extent of OBJ
viOuS intOxicatiOn are no longer re-
garded with amusement, but with
commiseration and as needing such
tender care as is given to sick man.
1t will be noticed that the obser-
walton of the French Minister has
been confined to the large cities Uf
the West and the East where tenn
perance is not enforced by law, but
is simply brought about by business
and social standards.

Wash shirt waists will be worn
until late in the fall. Corset covers
of knit wool and silk, with long
sleeves, are to be had for wear with
these when cold days appear. The
wash and lightweight flannels made
up without lining may thus be rend-
cred comfortable in cold weather.
Doeskin flannel is new material in
this line for shirt waists. 1t is very
soft, has a finish resembling suede
kid, and comes in all rhe dark and
are made plain, and are finished
down the front with fit or fancy
buttons. The indications are that
sleeves are to be finished with wider
undersleeves, but the plain bishop
sleeve will be used for flannel and
plain silk shirt waists.
SILKS.
The geranium silks so fashionable
and swagger five or six years ago are
being revived for fall and winter.
They appear in all tie varying
shades of the flower, have beauti-
fully soft finish, and make up very
handsomely when trimmed with
rich lace and some bright shade of
velvet. Separate fancy waists are
made of them, too, and look very
swagger with a handsome black
cloth skirt. Black and white silk
stripes, checks, pin dots and floral
sprays will be much favored. The
old fashioned broche effects in black
and white are seen and make w
very well in separate waists or whole
costumes, though they need some
bright trimming to set them off
Stripes and checks are used for plain
shirt waists and fancy silk petit
coats.
