KANSAS GREAT wHEAToUTLook

| Despite the Flood Hundred Million
| Bushels May Yet BE Raised.
Throughout the realm of newspaper
dom great interest was aroused by ac-
counts Of the enormous loss of property
and the attendant loss of life incident to
the recent floods, which swept with ruin
GUS results over a large section Of
the State. Actuated by one of the purest
of motives many people, as by com
mon impulse, delved deep into the pro-
verbal sock that the suffering Of their
Kansas brothers might be alleviated
1t is needless to say that the people
of the Sunhower State are highly appre-
ciative of the sympathy and assistance
showered upon them in their hour of dis
tress. They insist, however that Kan
sas is not so badly crippled as might APP
pear at first glance. While the people of
the inundated district have suffered great
loss, it is charged that the State, as a
whole, will not lose more than per
cent of the wheat crop; and that under
conditions at all favorable during the
remainder Of the season 100,000,000
bushels Of this staple cereal will be
raised.
Rash as this claim may seem to be- II
IL well substantiated by the facts regard
ing the wonderful productiveness of the
State during the last few years. In 1895
Kansas ranked sixth among the States
In the production of wheat In 1896 she
was third, and in '97-'9S second. A tenn
porary relapse followed, but for two
years she has held first place. Accord
ing to the United States Department Of
Agriculture Kansas holds the record
among the leading fifteen grain States for
the value of wheat and corn raised In
the fve-year period beginning with 1896.
She was first in the value Of her wheat
in 1000 and 1901, first in the value Of
her grain as compared with population.

DIAMONDS FROM THE SKIES.

Theory that Precious Stones Came to

Diamonds from the skies, conveyed

DRY first preached by Meydenhauer.
The diamond. he says. can be OF cos

meteorite at late period of the earth's
formation. The localities where dis-
monds are found contain the reSidues
of not very compact meteoric masses
which may have fallen In historic ages
and penetrated more or less deeply ac-
cording to the more or less resistent
character OF the surface where they
fell.
The nest striking confirmation OF
the theory comes from Arizona. Here
on a broad plain over an area about
miles in diameter were scattered
20 to 1000 masses OF metallic iron,
