tees.
The subject OF orchard cultivation was
discussed by John itch, who gave an in
teresting and instructive talk on the way
to cultivate fruit trees so as 10 obtain
the best results He was followed by
other members of the meeting.
Mr.. Wickam then read a paper on po-
tatoes, which demonstrated that he un-
derstood what he was talking about. He
gave his methods in detail. Mr.. Wickam
has been very successful in the raising OF
potatoes and great benefit would be sure
to be derived from following the course
he outlined. A general discussion fol-
lowed and lively interest was taken IN
this important subject
Several OF the members gave their
views on the raising and cultivation of
ornamental trees. All agreed that this
was a part of the program which should
be treated with consideration.
Capt Ash brought before the meeting a
small branch from plum tree. which he
thought was affected with the San Jose
scale. AS little was known about this
pestilence, the discussion on this subject
was light.
A great deal OF good can be obtained
from these meetings and a good attend

his hotel by a representative of this pa
per. yesterday The professor talked en-
tertainingly of his profession and said:
My exhibition consists in the handling
Of vicious, nervous and wicked horses
principally horses that have been spoiled
by, bad handling. The idea is to educate
such animals and make them safe for
public driving.
.'All of our bad horses of today are

There is now a great demand for them in

ANOTHER BUSINESS
to- LOCATE HERE
Empire CreamSeparator Com
pany Likes Wichita.
FIRM TO INVEST 100000
Many Travelling Men to Be
Given Employment

Mr.. ]. o. Slater, one of the mana gers
Of the Empire Cream Separator company,
Of Bloomfield. H.. has been in the city
the last few days and has concluded ar
fangements to establish a branch house at
Wichita.
The Empire Cream Separator company
ranks among the leading business firms
of the east, with capital extending into
the millions During the last few years
their trade has increased throughout the
western states to such an extent that they
have great difficulty in handling ii from
the main Office in Illinois. Mr.. Slater
accordingly started out and after travel
ing over this territory decided, in view
of Its central location and good shipping
facilities, to establish a branch house
at Wichita.
All the business of the company for
Kansas, Missouri. Oklahoma. Indian Ter
ritory and northern Texas will be handled
from this point. The machines will be
shipped here in car loads fro mthe fac
tory at Bloomfield. H., and will be
shipped fro mhere on orders. All their
travelling statesmen will be sent out from
this point.
j. o. Slater and w H Phipps- are the
principal managers Of the firm and will
take charge of this branch personally.
1t has not been fully determined just
where their Office rooms will be, but it is
probable that they will be on Douglas
avenue. Mr.. Phipps will arrive here this
morning. when they will complete the
final arrangements
The immensely of the business that will
be handled from this point, throughout
their southwest territory, can be esti-
mated by the fact that they will use a
capital of $500, 000 which will be mostly
invested in stock.
Negotiations are being made with
Snyth & Son to handle the transfer work
of the company.

WORK ON INTERuRbAN
GOES ON STEADILY
Right Of Way Practically All
Secured.
MATERIAL ON WAY HERE
Proposed Route Over Entirely
Level Ground.

According to reports received here from
the promoters and builders of the Arkan-
sas Valley Transit company, who will
build an interurban line between this city
and Hutchinson, with connections to
Newton, the work of getting things ready
for actual building is progressing rap
idly.
The promoters are having a compare
lively easy time. as almost the entire
site of the proposed land Is over land as
level as floor and over which it with be
necessary only to lay the ties, spike the
rails. I'LL an occasional, buffalo wal
low and fix up a few places which offer
obstacles of minor importance.
The soil presents every appearance of
great fertility. On either side of the pro-
posed line is magnificent strip of eoun-
try. 1t is capable of producing enormous
crops of wheat and has been proved for
that crop. Its greatest drawback at
present is the want of transportation ia
ciIities. Many farmers have their wheat
to haul for distances of fifteen to twenty
five miles. Some are obliged to cross a
range of sand hills and the expense of
reaching the local market is even greater
than to the larger markets. The railway
which it is proposed to build would cut
down the wagon haul and reduce the
freight rate to the larger market
The farmers along the proposed route
are not only willing to grant right of way
privileges, but will also do. such grading
as must be done, taking their pay in stock
in the road.
Building material for the line is ex-
pected on the gra6nd now, within month
at the latest. BY that time the right Of
way over the entire proposed route will
have heen secured and all that will re-
main to put the line into operation will
be the installation of the track.
