Aver. Net Profit

Where corn alone was fed, 93c was
realized. When gluten meal was add
ed to the corn ration. $1.04 per bushel
was realized, an increase of lie per
bushel. while the addition of the In
ternational and Standard Stock Foods
to the corn rations reduced the price
of corn 21c and 221ac per bushel each,
respectively. below that received when
corn alone was feu. These figures
show a wide margin in the price paid
per bushel, the most extreme case be-
ing the instance of the gluten meal
and corn, where $1.04 per bushel was
paid, and the case of the Standard
Stock Food and corn where but 70lac
per bushel was palu, difference Of
33hc.
When a farmer will haul corn ten
miles out OF his way for &c more per
bushel what will he not do for 33lhc
per bushel?
Lot XI was fed corn and wheat
straw for six weeks, precisely as Lot
/, after which time 1t received corn
alone and allowed the run Of u
acre timothy pasture of two years
standing. This lot made good returns,
but had they had twice this average
we would expect them to have eaten
less grain, thus making greater profit.
As might be expected this lot suffered
greatest shrlnkage on shipping.
Hogs were allowed to follow each
lot of steers and the gains they made
were credit d to the respective lots.
The hogs received no other grain that
which they found in the droppings.

NO REPUBLICAN, RELIEF.

The Pittsburg (Pa) Press is of the
opinion tha, the advance in the price
of beef. which has been about Is per
cent since the first of January, ana
which recent events prove beyond
question to be due more to the opera
ton OF the beef trust than to the unus-
ual consumption, is naturally bringing
forward many, suggestions of RENE
dies 1t is a matter of regret that so
few of these seem practicable. One,
which would strike a telling blow at
the trust. proposes the abolition Of the
protective" duties on beef. That
would open the American market to
Canadian and other foreign producers
and force the Chicago packers to come
down from their high horse. They
are able to undersell these foreign
producers in the latter's own markets
and it is about time that the foreign
ers should be allowed to get little
revenge by coming to the aid of the
American people. But what is the use
OF discussing this remedy as long az
congress retains its present politica
complexion?

The Dog. Right Place In the Home

A dog has it's place in the home, but
that place is not to terrify our friends
and visitors when they try to approach
our house or to make them uncomfort-
able after they enter it. We are un-
fair to dog when we allow it to make
q nuisance Of itself to those who have
no special interest in its welfare. The
best place for dog is generally where
there are no people other than the
family. There is something wrong
about dog or the license st is allowed
in a home when it arouses in a guest
or friend those feelings which our in
stincts permit us to suffer, but not ex-

English would die, and Wiley, seeing
a long term in the penitentiary ahead
of him, made a break for liberty and
Mr.. Poole fired several shots after him.
One went through his hat, which fell

to pick it up. When last seen he was

his reputation as a marksman.

Small Boys Create Reign of
Terror at LeOti.
OathbOund League With Signs,
Grips and Passwords.
ROB RIGHT AND LEFT.
Have an Outlaw Cave Where
the Goods We're Stored.
We're Going to Loot a Bank and
Hold Up a Train.

Leoti, Kan, March 4.-For the past
two months there has been a regular
reign of terror in this little town on the
western Kansas border. People have
been slugged and robbed, dwelling
houses have been robbed right and left
The robbers became so bold that people
were afraid to venture out of their
homes at night, and those who were
compelled to be out carried guns for
self-protection. Some of these were
knocked down and robbed of their guns.
Every store in town wasIrobbed from
one to three times. No one could locate
the robbers.
Last week a vigilance committee was
secretly organized by the bravest men
of the town to run the outlaws to earth
A squad of men Secreted themselves IN
different parts of town nights to watch
developments. The third night they
discovered the robbers. To the amaze
ment of the people of that town it was
found that twelve boys ranging in ages
from 10 to Is years, all sons of prom
inent people, were the outlaws. They
were all taken in custody and from
them it was ascertained that they had
a secret organization, with signs, grip
and password, and that the object Of
their lodge was to loot and steal They
maintained headquarters in an bandon
ed dugout in the outskirts of town.
where they hid all their plumber and
where they met to do all their plotting.
One of the schemes on the programme
for this week was to rob the local bank,
and if that was pulled off successfully
then they were to tackle Missouri Pa
ciffc train later on. After the boys were
all rounded up and arrested, the people
who had lost stuff by theft found most
OF it in the old dugout
The county attorney issued warrants
for the arrest of all on state charge,
but the parents of the twelve boys held
a conference with the authorities, who
later agreed to hold the warrants over
the heads of the youngsters for two
years as a club. If the parents can re-
form them and make useful citizens of
them by that time, there will be no
prosecutions, but if the parents fail the
authorities will step in and send the
young desperadoes to the reformatory
or the prison.

STANLEY'S LOST TICKET.
Governor Misses One of His Precious
Nordica Cardboards.

Somewhere. floating around in the cold
cold world, there is Nordica ticket with
out an owner-without its rightful owner
at least. 1t once belonged to Gov. Stan
ley, but the governor knoweth not its
whereabouts at present.
Mrs Stanley wanted three tickets to the
Nordica concert for herself and two
guests As the governor was sick last
week his private secretary, Luther Burns,
volunteered to secure the tickets and
have them reserved Saturday morning
Mr. Burns Sauntered down town expect
ing to exchange three round coins of the
realm for the three tickets, and he also
thought it would be the work of only a
few minutes to get them reserved But
when he reached Stansfields drug store
and saw the hundreds of people lined UP
in front of him he changed his mind.
Somebody said there were some reserved
tickets on sale at a nearby millinary store
and Mr.. Burns started in quest of them.
He had to pay double price for them. but
he thought that was cheaper than stand
ing in line several hours for them. and
he turned over Sc for the three tickets
When he learned afterwards that tickets
with less favored seats sold as high as IS
each he was more resigned.
Mr.. Burns turned the three tickets over
to Gov Stanley. who put them in a vest
pocket with his glasses. But there are
only two there now. He supposes that in
pulling his eye glasses out of his pocket
he must have pulled one of the tickets out
also. Now he is skirmishing around to
find another.
