WHEAT WEIGHS HEAVY.
Threshers Report sedgwick County
Grain Above the Average.

Wichita. Kan, June 26.-The Beacon
says: The wheat crop in Sedgwick
county is turning out much better than
was expected. The crop is about sixty
per cent better than was expected. Now
that the wheat is being threshed the
farmers are learning that the berries
are even heavier than they thought
they would be two weeks ago at which
time it was known that the berries
were well filed and would weigh very
heavy.
1T was believed that the wheat crop
would be less than fifty per cent of the
average yield in this county" said R.
T. Butler, a farmer living east of the
city, but it will go above all esti-
mates"
Joseph Porter. one Of the best known
farmers and stoekmen from southern
Kansas reports that he cut so acres of
soft wheat and has just threshed his
crop. The wheat made twenty six
bushels to the acre and was Of the finest
quality, testing 81 pounds
The grains were plump and of good
color and the heads were. well filed.
The straw was not so very long but OF
sufficient length to be easily harvested.
H C. Dunbar. the undertaken says
he has the finest so acre tract of wheat
and oats in Sedgwick county. The field
is located one mile east of Main street
on Murdoch avenue and is being har-
vested today Mr. Dunbar thinks the
wheat crop will yield at least IS bush
els to the acre and the oats will be
above the average.

YOUNG WIFE DESERTED.
Sad Ending of Young Girls Romance
at Hutchinson

Hutchinson, June 26.-The News says:
It is a sad story that Mrs. H. Knudson.
or Dot" Byers, as she was, has to tell
"a story of a hasty marriage and an
almost as hasty abandonment on the
part Of her husband
There was an Uncle Toms Cabin
show here last week. It showed in a
tent and a great many people went to
see 1t. Well, this same show played in
st. John. the week before. knudson
was cook for the aggrega ton and he
there met pretty Dot" Byers. A fir
tation led to an engagement and a mar
rage twenty-four hours later, the
brides father being present to enforce
the marriage, but not to approve of it.
He held that his daughter had disgraced
him by taking up with a show cook
and he wanted to see her safely married
and out of town
The young pair came to Hutchinson
where the temporary disappearance Of
the bride caused the amusing scene at
the police station. Knudson got work
in the kitchen of the Santa Fe hotel
and they were living apparently happy
and contented. Then Knudson went to
Newton. ostensibly TO rejoin the show
He said when he left that he would
send for her. but several days have
elapsed and she is still waiting for a
letter.

of millions came along and stripped the
trees of their foliage causing the little
apples to drop off. Mr.. Henry says that
nothing can be done to rid an orchard
of canker worms, and therefore he
thinks it is folly to attempt to raise
another crop after his disastrous ex-
perience this year.
Mr. Henry's orchard is located near
Lowemont. in the northwestern part of
the county, and is regarded as one of
the most perfect apple orchards in the
state. Other orchards in that locality
did not suffer to a very large extent
from the canker worms.

Leavenworth, Kan, June 26.-Wrliam
Henry owns one of the largest and
finest apple orchards in Leavenworth
county if not in Kansas, but he told a
reporter that he was Disguised with
apple raising and would probably cut
his entire orchard down. and farm the

apple business is due to the fact that
his entire crop was ruined this spring
by canker worms On an orchard of
eighty acres there is not enough fruit
to pay for the expenses of the harvest.
The prospect was excellent early in the
season but the canker worms in droves

She said that unless a person had some
experience in teaching be could scarce

sometimes make. To illustrate her
point she told three stories from her
own personal experiences. One day.

This is the way one OF the children met

On another day one of the questions
in gra mmar examination read: II

One bright youth wrote this answer:
