Opportunities Better for Small Ranehmen
in Sherman County Than the Uneer-
tainities of the OkIahoma strip.

A good many people of this county
are considerably interested about the
opening Of lands for settlement in the
Oklahoma country, and it is probable
that Kansas will loose a number Of its
citizens, as was the case in the former
openings in the territory. Sherman
county viii probably loose a number
of people who viii join the rush as on
former occasions.
Something may be reasonably said
in favor of staying with Sherman
county. In the first place there IS no
finer county in western Kansas than
this county. The lands here are as
rich or richer than those to be opened
up in the territory, and this much can
be truthfulIy said, that the lands here
are more even in fertility and value
than in the strip, that the water here
is the best in the world; whereas, in
the territory the lands are very spotted
and in some localities the water is
nauseatiog and intolerable. They
who emigrate there will find every
thing Overdone and speculation and
booming rife and rampant. Some will
make money but the great majority
will loose and be worse off than they
we're here. This has been true of all
such rushes and boOms.
Nowhere in the west are there better
opportunities for men Of small means
and Of moderate capital to invest in
land and in sheep and cattle ranches.
Dairying in this county is steadily in
creasing and will soon be a large and
profitable employment for small far
mers. Butter produced from buffalo
grass pastures excells all other grades,
as the recent victory of the Kansas
product at the st. Paul, Mimi, Cream
cry association proves. a large amount
of Sherman county lands have recently
been sold at a fair price, and stock
men are making heavy investments
here. 1t is an ideal grazing country.
These things are facts that no one
can deny. The man that has a small
bunch of stock and stays with Sherman
county will not regret it. It is an old
saying: Shoemaker, stick to your
last" Applying this aphorism, it
may be said: "Rancher, stick to your
ranch" Drawbacks are found in every
country known TO mankind, Sherman
county has them, of course, but advan-
tages preponderate here.

BucKLIN,s SCHEME.
Says Grain Growers wan OrEanizs to De
feat the Grain Trust-Wnl Establish
Commission Houses.

The record of this Legislature has
been that not an iota of legislation has
been enacted for the benefit Of the
wheat growers of the state. The near
est approach to anything that viii ef-
feet them benefieially is the railroad
law, and they are not satisfied that this
viii afford them ally relief from the
grain trust, says the Topeka Journal
Several attempts at legislation were
made by Representative J. A. Bucklin,
of Thomas county, but every one was
turned down. Bucklin, by the way,
did not succeed in having passed a
single one of the half-do bills he
introduced. Two of them were grain
biIls-one antitrust and the other for
the creation of a state grain commits
sioner.
Representative Bucklin says the
wheat growers of the state will now
take the struggle against the grain
trust into their own hands and inaug-
urate fight TO a finish. There will be
a meeting called of the wheat growers
May. The farmers will organize an as
sociatiOn for their own protection and
to combat the grain trust.
The idea is, since the state would not
afford them a grain commission mer-
chant TO handle their grain in Kansas
City, Kan, to establish their own com
missi on merchants in Kansas City,
Galveston, Duluth and Chicago. For
the last five years Kansas has had an
average annual expectation of 10000
600 bushels of wheat, upon which has
been paid the usual commission of one
cent a bushel. Inside of $4,000 a
year, by a great deal, they can estab-
lisb and maintain these agencies, it is
claimed, and have satisfactory service.
Oklahoma grain growers have already
organized on this line and, Representa-
tive Bucklin says, the farmers of GEN.
trail and western Kansas now propose
to do the same thing.

The Time of a Wink

A German scientist has given an
other proof Of the painstaking nature
Of his race in obtaining perfect accur-
acy and the most minute detail of all
things. This savant has measured the
time that is occupied by a wink. He
used a special Photographic apparatus
and fixed a piece of white paper on the
edge of the eyelid for a mark. He
found that the lid descends quickly
and rests a little at the bottom move
ment. Then it rises more slowly than
it fell. The mean duration of the
downward movement was from OTIS
to .091 of a second. The time from the
instant the eye rested till it closed
varied from rs TO II of a second. In
rising the lid took II of a second. The
wink was completed in a of a second.

mo- WAR ON AMERIoAN GOODS.

The fact that our exports of manu-
features in the first eight months of
this year were about 5000, 900 less
than i'll the same months Of 1900 has
led some to believe that the much
mooted European alliance" against
our goods has been effected and is now
in operation. In the current North
American Review o. =. Austin, chief
Of the bureau Of statistics, demon
strates that this belief is without foun.
dation.
In the first place. the reduction is
partly due TIC the fact that Hawaii's
and Porto Rico's annual purchases Of
about So 100000 are no longer counted
as exports. In the second place, the
decline is not general. but is practi-
caliy confined to refined mineral oil,
copper, and iron and steel products.
AS to mineral oil, the decline was in
price alone. We actually exported for
the compared eight months AZ, 693 ,2T2
gallons more this year than last, but
we obtained S3,250,20O less for it.

OIL ENGINES IN PALESTINE.

To what extent the utilitarian spirit
IS growing in what one is disposed to
consider as the dream lands of the
Far East is shown by the recently
made statement that oil engines are
now used in numbers in Palestine for
pumping water from wells. The first
attempt at introducing the engines
there for that purpose is said to have
been made about three years ago by
a German firm. the engines being
small ones of three or four horse
power. AT first 10 one would try them,
but finally the agent of the firm in
question volunteered in one case to set
up an engine free Of expense by way Of
experiment, and this little installation
worked so well That it quickly led to
the placing of several orders for more.
Since then abou. sixty oil engines
have been set up in different places,
practically all the plantation work,
about two-thirds of the engines hav-
ing come from Germany and the 9th
ers from British makers, the British
engines, it is said, growing in favor on
account Of their greater simplicity CT
construction. This is an important
point when it is considered that the
engines are put in charge Of native la
borers curing n-ost of the time they
are worked.

SOME CAUSES FOR CArARRH.

BY the rather indefinite term 'ca-
tarrh" we mean to include certain
common inf1ammations of the nose,
throat and ear. The portion of the re-
glons affected is, in each case, the mu-
cous membrane lining them. This
protective covering of the interior of
these structures is not only of the same
In each, but it is also, by means Of
various connecting orifices, continu-
Gus.
This close union or connection re-
suits in a common association Of dis
ease affecting these various parts. 1t
Is a frequent experience for individ-
uals to suffer with a cartarrh of the
S or throat in varying degree Of Sc
verify for months or years, when sud
denly or gradually, a similar disease
Of the ears may be added, resulting
In impairment of the hearing, tinnitus,
or ringing in the cars, and less COM
monty pain in the same region.
1t may be said that the majority of
cases of impairment Of hearing devel-
oping after youth are due to the ag-

throat or nose trouble, which has
gradually involved the ear by reason
OF the u~nfavcraole effect upon the lat
ter of the diseased condition in the
adjacent structures, or by direct e3-
tension Of the disease of the ear along
the Eustachian tube-the tube-like or
iice connecting the ear with the throat
and nose.
AS to preventing the occurrence OF
this much-to-be-dreaded result, it is
plain that this must, for the most part,
consist in preventing a~ggravations of
ar already existing catarrh in the nose
or throat.
Ac-ual obstruction in either of these
organs is only amenable to the sur
gical skill of the physician. On the
other hand, much can be lone by the
individual himself when the catarrhal
condition has not arrived at the stage
OF obstruction, and likewise to pre-
vent recurrence Of the attacks when
the normal method of nasal breathing
has been re-establisned.

the most Infamous crime in the history
Of this State, the cold-b,ooded and das-
tardly murder of an eminent and dis
tinguished citizen of Kentucky" The
Kentucky executive also charges that
Durbin's action in refusing was the re-
suit of the political bargain made be-
fore his election to office, and charac-
terizes his charges against the courts
and officials of Kentucky as slanderous
and Inaccessible Misrepresentation.
He takes the stand that the Cover
nor of a State has no discretionary
powers, but only ministerial power in
the honoring of legally drawn requisi-
tons from other States, and this is
taken as an indication that steps will
shortly be taken in the courts to COM
pei Durbin by mandamus to honor the
acquisitions. If such proceedings are
instituted they will be in the courts Of
Indiana and taken en- appeal to the
Supreme Court.
