Big Corn Crop.
From the Buffalo Express.


The government crop estimate on corn,
which has Just been made and which is the
last before the final estimate on all grains.
places the probable harvest at PASS, 900, 900
bushels. If these figures hold, the crop will
be the largest the country has ever produced,
with the exception of 1902, when 2,623, 64S,
3l2 bushels were harvested. 1t is important
to note that the governments November esti-
mate is only 10000, 900 bushels less than that
made by the statistcan of the New York
Produce Exchange on the October conditions
reported. This very large crop of corn is par
ticularly welcome, coming as it does in sea-
son when there is a shortage in wheat. Wheat
will be high until the next crop is harvested,
but it will not be so high as would be the case
if there was a shortage in corn. Corn can be
used in many ways in the place of wheat aud
it is always so used when wheat is scarce.
The abundant supply of corn should also tend
to keep down the price of cattle fed upon this
grain, and therefore, the price Of meats.

To Get Rid of stumps.

The following methods Of getting rid OF
syumps Is recommended by the Scientific
American. In the autumn bore a hole two
or three inches ia diameter, according TO the
girth Of the stump, vertically in the centre OF
the latter and about Is inches deep. Put
II one or two ounces OF salt petre. hii the hole
with wafer and plug Ii up close. In the spring
take out the plug an pour in about one halt

Justice Rolte is Removed From The
Bench.

1t is not often that the conduct of Judge
on the bench is called into question, and it is
comparatively seldom That he is removed. II is
very rarely, indeed, that a cause of removal
is the lack Of that quality which, for want of a
better name. is termed the judicial tempera-
meut. That, however, is one OF the reasons
that brought about the removal from the bench
of Justice Herman Bolte, of the Second MUM
cipal Court, New York city, on November
II, the five Justices of the Appellate Division
of the Supreme Court concuFing. In June,
1908, seventeen charges were instituted against
Justice Bolte by William Travers jerome, the
District Attorney, acting as private citizen.
and alleging, among other things, Judicial
misconduct, favoritism, a lack Of legal discre-
ton and manner described as coarse, vul-
gar, arbitrary and tyrannical." Ia the opinion
of the Court, written by Justice Laughlin,
most of the charges are sustained. 1t says:
eWe are convinced that the respondent has
not the proper judicial temperament, nor has
he a proper appreciation of the rights of liti
giants to have fair and impartial hearing.
The interests of the public forbid that his
official misconduct be condoned, and require
his removal"

The Earliest Postal Service Dates

during the reign Of Khammurabi, the
Amraphel of Genesis, who was king
of Babylonia about 23OO B. c. A num-

may be possible. In the upper San
Joaquin valley, in California, five or six
cuttings are usually obtained. In the
LOvelOck valley, Nebraska, where large
quantities Of alfalfa are grown, three
cuttings are made, with a yield of five
to seven tons.
Alfalfa hay is prepared in the man
ner usual for hay crops, but the opera

the dry regions Of the northwest Mr..
Hitchcock says: One man with a team

The alfalfa is usually raked within d
few hours after moving, thrown into
punches by hand and stacked as soon
as convenient. If the hay is allowed to
remain too long in the swath or wind
row, too much loss of foliage occurs in
stacking on account of the dryness of
the air.
The hay is usually stacked by ma

FIFTY YEARS OF KANSAS.
March of Progress In the Sunaower
State.

March of Progress In the SunhOwer
state.
William Allen White, writing of the
progress made in the last half century
by Kansas, which recently celebrated
the fiftieth anniversary of the signing
Of the Kansas-Nebraska bill, the re-
peal Of the Missouri compromise, says
in the Worlds Work for June:
Fifty years ago Kansas was marked
on the maps desert, and for the most
part it was q desert, indeed. 1t is an
upland country chiefly, vast plateau,
veined sparsely with creeks and AFTER
led with few rivers that were swollen
with the floods Of spring and, through
the season of growing crops, oozed slug
gishly in pools on the parching white
sand. Before civilized man came to
grapple it this desert lay green and
tempting in May and June and brown
and dreary the rest Of the year.
And now that Kansas has conquered
the soil, getting crops from it with
bountiful regularity, she is delving into
the ground. In the southwestern tri-
angle of the state the ten years last
past have brought important discoveries
of coal and oil and gas and zinc and
lead. The iron mountains Of Missouri
are near by, and smelters and foundries
and allied industries that need cheap
fuel are filing up southeastern Kan
sas. changing it's economic status from
agricultural to manufacturing. II gas,
coal and oil belts are pushing -arther
and farther back into the state. It is
not unlikely that half the area Of Kan
sas may cover valuable fuel products.
Since 1894 Kansas has pulled herself
out of debt. Her proportion Of rented
farms is smaller than that Of any
other state in the transmissouri coun-
try. Seven-tenths of the homes Of the
people are owned The railroad mile
age of the state is larger than that of
any other American state in proportion
to the population. The per capita
wealth of Kansas may not be larger
than that of New York, but Kansas
wealth is more evenly distributed.
There are no rich men-nOt dozen
men in the state worth more than ST.
100000, not 200 worth $500,0OO, but
thousands are worth from $4,000 to
$4,000 and scores worth 100000. The
money of the few Kansas rich men has
been earned and saved.
But the chief glory Of Kansas is not
her material wealth, but her schools.
In the amount Of money spent for
schools in proportion to the wealth and
population of the state Kansas ranks
fourteenth. The most considerable
| item of the Kansan's taxes is school

A Few Words of Cheer.

A prominent singer in Louisville
Ky, recently took charge of choir in
one of the local churches, says the
Louisville Herald. An enthusiastic
member Of the congregation, wishing
to encourage her, approached her the
other day with this:
"Miss Jones, you can't realize how
great your success has been with the
choir. Why, you have got the whole
church interested Before you began
to sing in the choir scarcely person
in the congregation joined in the
hymns. but last Sunday morning every
one sang so loud that it was impossible
to distinguish the choir at ALL"

OUR INTEREST IN KOREA.

How Success of Either Russia or Ja-
pan Would Affect America.
Homer B. Hubert, in his Korea, the
Bone of Contention in the May Cen
fury, says:
IS Americans we naturally ask how
the success of either side would af-
feet our interests in the peninsula and
in the whole far east. Japan stands
for the "open door, everywhere, for
perfect freedom of religion, for TIE
opening up Of the agricultural, mineral
and industrial resources of the east
ern world. Not one plank in her plat
form suggests a policy that would be
inimical to American enterprise in any
of it's many forms. Americans have
not done very much in Korea as yet,
but this war means more than Korea.
It means Manchuria and all northern
China.
The Russian minister in Seoul recent
" told a journalist that the Russians
did not see why Americans should be
playing Japan's game since she is a
commercial rival. He affirmed that
Americans would be welcomed any
where in Mapchuria by the Russians
today, but that if Mukden and the 9th
er ports were opened it would allow
the influx of thousand Japanese, and
trouble would be inevitable. If this
Is so, how does it happen that Ameri-
can firms in Port Arthur, Dalny, Vladi-
voStok and other Russian centerS find
it absolutely necessary to carry on
their business through Russian agents!
The local manager Of the, firm must
be under Russian control or he can dc
no business. An independent Ameri-
can firm in Vladivostok recently found
that it must close it's doors. 1t would
not come under Russian Jurisdiction
and it soon found that when it's goods
from America arrived they were kept
in the customs warehouse from four
to six months before the authorities
would release them.
In one respect the Americans would
become more obnoxious to the Rus
slams than the japanese. The Ameri-
can merchant is always pushing for
leading place. He develops a large
policy and seeks to become a CONNER
cial and financial power in whatever
community he may be placed. On the
other hand. the Japanese almost al
ways push for the small retail trade.
A hundred Of them handle the same
amount of goods that a single Amer
can OF English firm handles.

Souvenir Towels From Japan.

A series Of nine cotton towels Of jap
anese manufacture was received at
Portland, Ore, recently by M. Sumisa-
bro Takagi, local vice consul for ia
pan, says the Portland Telegram. The
towels are something distinctly new in
the line Of Japanese caricature work.
They depict the Japanese humorist's
idea of the attacks on Port Arthur, the
attitude and work Of the Russian off,
Gals and the destruction Of the Rus
sian war vessels. The pictures are
done in colors on the towels, which
were manufactured as a class Of SOU
venirs Of the war. The towels were
made in Tokyo by japanese workmen
in the drapery department Of one Of
the largest japanese dry goods houses
IN the mikado's kingdom.

CATS IN A BOMBARDMENT.
Strange Effect Produced on Them by
Japanese CannOnading.

Japanese CannOnading.
A lady who was in Port Arthur dur
Ing the commandments ordered by Adj
miral Togo has described the curious
effect produced on cats by the can
nonade, says the st. James Gazette.
81 was at my window during each
bombardment," she has related, but
only through the day, because at night
did not dare stir out Of bed. In front
of me there was little roof on which
five or six cats of the neighborhood col
lected. Each time there was a bonn
bardment the cats duly arrived, and,
having observed them, l on the second
occasion proceeded to watch them.
With my family we passed the hours
looking at them. At each gunshoC the
cats arched their banks and shffened
their legs and seemed both terrified
and furious. Then when a kissing
shell arrived 1t gave the signal for
frightful battle. They jumped at each
other, raging like tigers, and seemed to
hold each other responsible for what
was taking place.
'"The effect was so comical that we
could rot help laughing, although the
occasion did not inspire gayety. Aft
er having fought, the cats retired for
awhile as though bewildered, but as
soon as the bombardment commenced
again they went through the same
business. Each time it was always the
sama0
