Our Farmer Aristocrats.

Our Farmer Ar1StOcratSs
Tales of sudden wealth are quite COM
mon In the famous Kansas and Okla
homa wheat belt; fine houses, modern
in. every appointment, are the rule;
rubber-tired buggies and automobiles
are nothing to attract attention. In GER
tain communities even the farmer has
grown metropolitan to the extent Of
building an opera house on school lot
and securing some of the best attrac-
tions in the theatrical line. 1t was not
until the present winter that Wichita
could afford a guarantee for certain
notable singers. Among those occupy
ing front seats were well-known wheat
growers. Farmers daughters and
farmers sons form goodly part of the
Kansas society element, while piano
statesmen look to them for their quick
deals. 1t is nothing uncommon for
farmer to come to town and buy two
or three rubber-tired buggies, or even
to place an order for an automobile.
Mr.. D. w. Blaine, a rich farmer of
Pratt County, superintends all his har-
vesting In an automobile. Many 9TH
ers are equally plutocratic.
One of the richest farmers in the Kan
sas wheat belt is John T. Stewart, who
came to the State five years ago. He
borrowed $50 from a friend, rented
quarter section of land in Sumner
County and began work. To-day he is
worth 100000, and his income from
wheat in 1901 was $4,000. He is known
as the wheat king of Kansas. There
are twenty-three milfionaires In Kan
sas, fifteen of whom are farmers living
on farms and running them as an in
vestment. Perhaps they have not all
of their fortune invested in land, but
goodly portion of it is. Solomon Bes-
ley, of Wellington, placed $4,000 in
wheat land last year and realized 30
per cent on his investment, or ten times
as much as he receives from money
loaned in Illinois-Ainslee's Magazine.

The Daily Waste,

There is one item that is often over
looked in the keeping of cows, and es-
pecially so of dairy cows, and that is
daily waste. There is practically the
same whether the animal is good
mixer or a poor one. In all cases the
food necessary for the support of ami
NAL life and to make up the daily
waste must come first, and then the
milk or beef comes next after this is
taken out. If the animal gives a small
amount of milk, the cost of food as
waste in proportion to the amount Of
milk secured is greater than with a
large amount of milk. and of course
this profit is decreased accordingly.
Feeding poor cows in the dairy is prac-
tica1ly a waste. of feed.-Agricola.

ROSTERS long green feathers stuck in
the Big Chiefs hat. The Big Chief
had supposed that no one would recog-
nize that feather. =
.'W-h-y-y, you bad mani" said Ien-
nies mother, pointing to the feather.

to Jennie as he gathered up his reins
and spurred his pony into a gallop,

OF course Jennie was punished for
her fault, but 1 believe she felt glad
that what she dreaded had at last oc-
CURED, and her suspense was ended
She no longer hides her necklace, for
having paid the penalty of her sin, she

Three Little Kittens.
Three little kittens, so downy and soft,
Were cuddled up by the fire,
And two little children were sleeping
aloft,
As eozy as heart could desire;
Dreaming of something ever so nice,
Dolls and sugar-plums, rats and mice.
The night wore on, and the mistress said,=
''I'm sleepy, l must confess,
And as kitties and babies are safe in bed,
IN go to bed, too, l guess"
She went upstairs, just story higher,
While the kittens slept by the kitchen
fire.
What noise can that be?" the mistress
Meow! meowv' "Pm afraid
A poor little kitty-cat's fallen out of bed!
The nice little nest I madep'
"Meow! meOww "Dear me! dear. me!
I wonder what can the matter be ?'
The mistress paused~on an upper stair,
For what did she see below?
But three little kittens with frightened
air, ..
Standing up in row!
With six little paws on the step above,
And no mother cat to caress or love.
Through the kitchen door came cloud Of
smoke! ::
The mistress, in great alarm,
To sense of danger straightway awoke:
Her babies might come to harm.
On the Kitchen hearth. to her great
amaze,
Was a basket Of shavings beginning to
blaze.
The three little kittens were hugged and
kissed,
And promised many a mouse;
While their names were put upon honor's
list,
For hadn't they saved house?
And two little children were gathered
tight -
To a mothers heart ere she slept that
night.
Good Little Girl.
The story is told of a little girl in
England who, when rain water was
scarce, saved up as much asst as she
could and then sold it for a cent a
bucket, says the Detroit Free Press.
In this way she earned nearly SIS,
which she brought to the missionary
society. She was modest little girl,
and when the secretary of the mis-
sionary society asked for her name
she hesitated and failed to answer.
"But must put down where the mon
ey came FROM" said the secretary.
"Call it rain from heaven" replied the
little girl
