because of the lack of a market.
Reports From Sterling-The last
few days of warm dry weather have
improved harvesting conditions and
the farmers are busy cutting the
grain. There will be % per cent loss
on account of the wet weather.
Body Recovered.-The body of Ray
Moffatt was found at Arkansas City
in the water near the Arkansas City
mill. The boy was drowned while
swimming.
Postoffice Discontinued.-The post
Office at Terryton, Finney county, has
been discontinued, the mail going to
Knauston.
Harvest Held in check.-The wheat
harvest, now generally under way, is
held in check by too much rain Dur
ing the last few days much water has
fallen and cloudy weather prevailed.
Fields are too soft for machines, and
much of the best wheat is down or
badly tangled. Black rust is doing
much as a result.
Railroads Tied Up.-With the ex-
ception OF the Santa Fe, practically
all five railroads entering Wichita
were tied up, and there were no
trains in operation in scarcely any di-
rection.
First Steam Turbine-The Lawrence
canning works have installed a new
steam turbine in their power house.
Steam turbines are distinctly new as
a means of translating steam into
power and this turbine is thought to
be the first of its kind in the state.
The points of economy are increased
power and decreased engine space.
Held UP BY misunderstanding the
flood much water was held back by
the Frisco and by the Wichita &
Western, making it very disagreeable
for residents living above these
roads in Wichita.

Getting Something for Nothinu.

1T is my experience said the chief
clerk Of a confectionery store in Fifth
avenue, that even women who have all
the money they want to. spend VIII walk
two blocks out of their way to a store
where they. can get something for moth
ing Sometimes it is only a sample pack
age of chocolate that costs a rival in
business less than half a cent package.
Sometimes it IS iquorice pellets done up
in little silk bags. Again it is a free glass
Of soda water with every pound of candy.
In hot weather it is a fan No matter
what it is the women will rush to that
store
The triumph Of getting something for
nothing has an attractivenesS for most
women that they cannot resist. I wanted
the boss to go in for something of the
kind. but he gave me a look that nearly
dollars drift by and maintain the dignity
