The people of Lansing, Kansas, have
found the bones Of man that lived in
this country some 1900 years ago.
The scientists have beed unable to tel,
as yet, whether the lorn grew as tall
and the whiskers as long in Kansas,
then, as now, but it is said, from the
peculiar position of the bones of the
feet, that they can state positively that
he was a simon pure, Soekless Simpson
Populist.

ALARMING CONDITIONS.
Affairs in Southwestern Missouri
and Northern Arkansas are
Very Serious.

Farmers Have No None, 10 Purchase
Supplies and There Il "a Dearth
of Seed Corn aud Pofataes-Aort.
sssees Have the Unfortunat~s at
Their Mercy.

ST. Louis, March 1o.--Aeeording TO
accounts given by travelling men. and
other arrivals from southwestern
Missouri aud northern Arkansas. the
conditions in that section of the
country are becoming alarming. on
account of last seasons drought.
Farmers have no money with which
to purchase supplies, and it is stated
on good authority that unless some
thing is done TO relieve the situation
a serious food famine may occur be-
fore next summer.
Everywhere there is a dearth of
seed corn and potatoes, and even seed
with which to plant spring truck
gardens. Stock is suffering from
lack of food in the drought-striclSen
district and the little feed there is
being held at such high prices as to
be almost out of reach of the aver
age farmer. Families in the rural dis
tricts are living on the plainest kinds
of fare, and even the supply Of this
Is running short.
The greatest sufferers are persons
living at n distance from the rail-
roads. Corn there is being held at
81 per bushel, and wheat is selling at
the same figpre. In order to tide
their families and stock over the win
ter, farmers in many instances have
been obliged to mortgage their farms,
and in such transactions high rate
of interest is being charged.
There is little or no work to be
found. and farmers are leaving their
homes for southern lumber camps,
in order to earn sufficient money TO
keep their families alive. What causes
the most alarm for the future Is the
lack of seed corn and potatoes, and
the lack of money to purchase any
Indications are for a favorable sea
son, but many win be unable to take
advantage of it through lack Of seed
and stock with which to work the
farms.
The counties which are suffering
most are Barry. Stone, Taney, Chris

and Howell

have had trouble all season in get

are particularly desirous of quick ac-
tion. The price for seed potatoes is
advancing rapidly, and the dealers
want 10 take advantage of the mar
ket before farmers raise the price
still further.
Less than three weeks ago potato
seed stock was selling at IS cent? at
loading stations. Now the holders
are asking sf.25. The demand is from
southern sections. While they raise
good table potatoes in the south.
they are compelled 10 come north
