For Dairy study.

The dairy school at the, state agri-
cultural college at Manhattan win
open January and will continue to
March %. Kansas, it is claimed, has
one of the hest equipped dairy schools
in the United States. In the past
year $4,000 has been expended for
an agricultural building, $4,000 for
dairy apparatus, and $1,000 for a rep
resentative dairy herd. A 1O0-ton silo
has been built for the storage of feed
for the herd, and the dairy barn has
been fitted with the latest pattern
Drown stall and all modern conven-
fences. The idea of the dairy school
is to instruct the farmer how to
make dairying a more profitable bust
ness. Kansas cows have been chiefly
bred for beef. Secretary F. d. Co
burn, of the state board of agricul-
ture, reports the average yearly
value of the product of the Kansas
dairy cow to be $9.65. Several cream
cries report that the average re-
ceipts per cow for their patrons
is $50. The agricultural college
secured, in 1898, an average per cow
of $37.75 for butter fat, at creamery
prices, from a scrub herd that in
quality were much below the aver
age cows of the state; and one scrub
cow, for which was paid $50, returned
$6O.SS for butter fat, and gave a net
profit above cost of feed of $40.37.

Sues sherif for Damages.

Bert Carroll has filed a damage suit
for $4,000 against S. p Costigan,
sheriff of Franklin county. Garroll's
home is at Lecompton. He was ar
rested twice last September, charged
with stealing horse from Princeton
The last arrest was made at Bunker
Hill. and Carroll was placed in Jail
at Salina, where he was put in a cell
where prisoner had committed sui
eide. He was "kangarooed" and sub
jected to such treatment that his
health was impaired, it is alleged.
Carroll charges that Sheriff Costigan
made the complaints for the purpose
of collecting fees from the state.
The case will probably go to trial in
January.

FALLEN
CROSS is BEING AT.
Tackled FOR HIS UNSOPHIS-

is Declared His Own Following as
Unfit for Race.

oklahoma City. o. T.. May 21.-William
Cross has about reached the conclusion
that being the Democratic nominee for
I the delegate to congress IS out of his
line; especially so since the pounding, pO-
htically speaking. which he has received
a. tho hands OF his political advisors in
this city, after his complete fail-down
OF last Saturday. Cross has been hauled
upon the carpet and told that he must
play the game of politics in a much diff
ferent manner. If he expects 10 win out
this fall. Already there is a sentiment
spreading that Cross is not the man for
the place; that he does not understand
the issues OF the day; that he does not
know how to meet people when not try
ing to sell calico or other goods Coach
ing has been the order of the week. and
an attempt is being made 70 transform
man who knows nothing about politics
into giant which even by his friends IS
row considered an inpOssrjiiity-
Democrats have been censuring Cross
for not having a speech thoroughly up
to-date for last Saturday. He has been
told that be must have a speech ready
for the campaign That if he cannot
speak any other way, he must write
something, let il be approved by the
party leaders. and then commit it so that
ne can rattle it or without hesitancy-
It has even been rumored here that II
the territorial committee could summon
up courage il would withdraw Cross from
the race and substitute another man.
Where this rumor came from is not
known, but nevertheless it has been going
the rounds of the streets and hotels.
Such reports cannot help but be dis
heartenihg to Cross and his friends. II
will take some brilliant effort on his part
10 bring his party TO the point reached at
the Enid convention Politically speaking,
the Democrats have been going backward
and many of them do not hesitate 10
