CITY WILL SAVE 10000
Delay in Waterworks Transfer Helps
Interest Fund.

Because the city of Topeka did not
take possession of the Topeka water
works on April 1, as planned, the city
will have SIC, 500 less interest to pay on
it's waterworks debt.
Mayor BergundthaI will cancel coupon
No. on each of the $50 bonds, and will
cut the amount to be paid on coupon
No. 2 in half. Each coupon calls for
Der, and coupon No. 2 is for the second
half of the first year, and will be due
in April, 1905. If the city takes pos
session of the waterworks on January 1,
the city will have just nine months less
interest to pay than it would have had
had it taken possession of the plant in
April, 1904. And of course the city will
have lost all the income of the plant
for that period, also.
On April 1, 1905, the city will have to
pay it's first installment of interest on
the waterworks bonds. The amount
which will come due on that date will
be 49, 500. The city is sure to have
plenty of money to meet this payment
even though it does not derive any rev.
enue from the plant in that period, as
the levy of III mills for city hydrant
rentals will be in the city treasury This
will amount, in the course of the year,
to $4,000
Saturday afternoon, the mayor, city
clerk and Chas. Downing, vice preSi-
dent of the Central National bank, met
in the council chamber at the city hall,
and signed up all the waterworkS bonds.
The affidavits certifying that the work
ed, and the bonds are now ready to be
registered. The bill for engraving the
bonds will now be paid by the city. The
bill is for about $3.50.

One of these mice has been kept for
three years with no other food than
the mixed birdseed OF commerce. Dur

THEMICRO8ET THEORY
How it Affects the Growth OF
Various Crops.

Has Revoiutionixed the Butter and
Cheese Business.
As 30 much Is written and spoken
about the agency of microbes in the
economy Of farm life, we think it
proper to explain briefly what that
agency is, says the Southern Cultiya-
tor. The "Microbe Theory claims
that the processes OF growth and de-
cay, OF life and death are largely de-
pendent upon the presence OF count
less millions of microscopic animal
culae called microbes. That one large
class OF these are constantly engaged
In building up and assisting life and
growth both in the vegetable and ami.
maj Kingdoms, that another equally
large class are constantly at work de.
stroylhg and running all kinds of or
ganic structures. Further, IL is
claimed that each form OF life and
death has rs particular microbe. That
there are innumerable species of these
microbes. That each plant has it's
Fpecial species to help or to hinder.
One species gives butter or cheese
their flavor while another species
causes them to decay and damage. SO
OF plants, especially that large class
or them known as legumes, because
they bear their seed I'm pods. Clover.
aItalfa, cow peas, cotton and others
cannot do their work or gain their
best growth without the aid of the
particular species of microbes which
is htted to change the nitrogen of the
air Into ammonia or nitrate sor the
use OF that particular plant.
1t is very important that the farmer
should know this. All soils do not
have every species OF microbe in
them. A field may be well suited to
the growth OF COW peas. but not suited
TO the growth of alfalfa. The microbe
suited to one is present, but that suit
ed TO the other is not present Hence
one crop will succeed upon such
field and the other fail.
1t is claimed that any species which
Is wanting can he secured by the
FARMER and introduced into his fields.
This can be done in different ways.
lf alfalfa does not grow we'll i'm any
held when first sown. because the al.
faifd microbe is not present. you can
wait until the alfalfa gets them into
the soil by growing them, or you can
hasten the process by putting them
there. Get little soil from an alfal-
IA field and scatter II about when
you are preparing your land. This
is called inoculating the soil. II
there is no alfalfa field near you it is
generally true that the soil of a rich
garden or other spot which has been
brought up to high degree of pro-
duotiveneSs will answer A very few
or these microbes will soon fill the
whole field with their species. In
Germany and some ether places. these
microbes are grown in the laboratories
and sold TO the farmers in bottles.
The farmer distributes a few of them
here and there in his field and they
soon do the rest.

LEARNED HORSE
HAS EXAMINATION
Equine Shows Wonderful intelligence
Under Tests Given at
Berlin.

Berlin, Sept 1.-THE learned horse,
Hans. has just stood a successful ex-
animation before a scientific commits
sion, including psychologists. psychOlo-
gists, pedagogues. naturaHsts, animal
trainers and others. Their report sets
forth that the evidences he gave of
comprehending handwriting his musi-
cal and color discrimination and math-
ematical work were performed under
circumstances excluding the possibility
of trick. The methods of the horses
owner, Herr Won Osten, are pro-
nounced TO be those of a pedagogue
rather than of an animal trainer. The
case appears to them to be wholly eX-
ceptional. and to deserve thorough sci
entific study
