EDUCATIONAL NOTES.

From DelineatOr-
The legitimate occupation OF a child
is play It IS interesting to see how
unconsciOusIy the child has worked
out the problem for himself and how
every act to which has been given the
name OF play has for its object the
development Of his physique in some
direction. He runs and jumps, plays
tag 10 develop his muscles he
plays "hfde-and-seek to develop his
powers OF solving mysteries; and he
plays marbles, crOquet, ball and many
other kindred games to increase his
muscular sense and to improve the
qUickness Of his eye and his sense Of
calculation and TO increase his power
OF estimating distances. He spins
tops, rolls hoop ana walks on stills
that he may have some idea Of eQuf-
Hbrium- and so through the long list
Of games which are played by one
generation Of children after another,
it viii always be found that under
lying them is some purpose which,
although the child is unaware Of it,
tends TO develop him mentally and
physically 1t is also interesting to
observe how instinctively the child
adapts his sports to the season. to the
place and to the time.

Other Kansas City Market stuff Hold
ing Its Own
Kansas City. Mo, Nov. 14.-Fairly
liberal receipts Of cattle are still COM
ing. 5000. including 1000 calves last
week, and 10000 for two days this
week. Market is holding about steady
on everything except short fed steers,
which continue dull and q little lower
nearly every day This class lost 10
to 5 cents last week, market slow on
them today. Cows are generally strong
although uneven. stOckers and feeders
also selling good. Calves sold better
last week. as not so many are coming
now, and the accumulation in the
yards has been pretty well worked of.
Veals are very scarce, and selling
strong.
Most of the dressed beef steers are
the short fed kind, one drive yester-
day at $40, black cattle weighing
1, 800 pounds, top today IS, bulk Of
sales S4.25 to $3.50, and some trashy
steers downwards to $3.50. The mar
ket on short fed steers is weak, and
would not Withstand any considerable
rush OF that kind to market. 1t now
looks like the feeder who natures his
steers the best will stand the best
show OF making a profit this season
Cows and butcher stuff generally are
selling strong right along, Gamers are
lower this week. Range Of grass COWS
is 81 to S2.SO. including Gamers, good
heavy ones up to 1925, fed cows to
81, heifers upwards to S4.75, although
not many Of the latter are included

terday. Bulk bring 81 TO 1925, veals
IS to S6.25, heavy CALVES $3.50 to
81, stOckers and feeders SO to 1910
for bulk Of sales.
Hogs have been selling nearly
steady for ten days or two weeks till
today, when the market suffered the
worst break this fall, prices 10 lower,
closing Is lower, with good hogs sell
ing a tS4.75. Top today was S4.S7k,
bulk Of sales S4.75 to Sassy, light
weights S4.25 to S4.75- Receipts have
! been liberal, but the demand has also
been great, and it has been a slow
: process for packers to put the price
down to a winter packing basis.
Sheep and lambs have been selling
lower lately, but market today is
strong, receipts 5000 head Native
lambs sold at 1920 today, fed west
ems at $40, fed sheep and yearIings

AkNOCk on TIE WEST.

Secretary Of Agriculture Wilson,
who is making a brief visit in the
Hawkeye state. is enthusiastic over
the fine soil in Iowa" but he re-
grets that Iowa farmers invest their
surplus funds elsewhere instead of
improving their holdings at home. In
an interview he gives Iowa farmers
this advice:
Just at present there is a great
rush from the high priced Iowa lands
to cheap farms elsewhere, but in a
few years the present good crops in
that country will fail just as they
have before and the men who have
enough left to get out Of that cOun-
try will come back to Iowa
zone year cannot be compared with
another, as far as climate affecting
crops goes, good or bad crops depend
almost wholly upon the weather. But
if years vary one with another climate
does not change and one ten year per
iOd Will compare very closely with
another.
The Semi-arid country Is simply
having a few years Of excessive rain
fail, just as Kansas had when first
settled; that is all. The dry, hot years
will come again jusG as they have in
the past Then a good many Iowa
farmers who have invested money
instead Of improving the farm that
made the money, will be sorry that
the greed for cheap land led them to
neglect their real sources Of wealth
and revenue, their fertile acres in
Iowa
Secretary Wilson thus repudiates
western Kansas. but the future of
western Kansas will surely repudiate
the wisdom OF AR. Wilson It re-
pudiates his prophecy now Does he
know that our western farmers that
have taken the pains to farm as well
as they do in Iowa. have been rais-
ing bountiful crops for these last dOz-
en- years excepting 1884. when vest
ern Kansas was not more stricken
than some Favored lands2r' II ten
OF twelve years OF success be taken
as the rule. where is the secretary
going To get his exceptions frOm !?
Western Kansas has - good a right
10 believe in her future as Iowa has
in hers.
Wheat production is one OF the
things Iowa boasts Of. yet Kansas
raises twice or three times as much
wheat every year as Iowa, and will
continue 10 OutclaSs her further still.
Moreover. the wheat belt Of Kansas
is a continually changing boundary
its geography moving west The land
that Mr.. Wilson knocks on has broken
firmly into the list OF million bushei
wheat counties OF the state.

r.. /. TRAINS MUST STOP
LEYANT. IN THOMAS COUNTY,
AFTER BETTER SERVICE
Petition Filed With the Board Of
Railroad Commissioners Asking
That Trains Stop There.

Topeka, Kan, Nov 1O.-As one re-
suit Of the development OF western
Kansas. there is growing up a strong
and increasing demand for better
train service and better shipping &C
Communications. Dozens Of requests
have come before the state board OF
railroad commissioners within the past
six months for the establishment Of
depOts and agents at towns which
have only recently found any need
for such convenience
There are also demands for imprOy-
ed passenger service on the Union Pa
cifc, Missouri Pacific and some other
western lines. Little towns which are
now only whistling points for the
through trains are asking the railroad
companies to stop these trains ION
nag" There are also requests for ad-
ditional trains in some localities.
Levant Is Cited.
An example Of this class Of petit
tons was fled with the board Of rail-
road commissioners today. It comes
from the little town Of Levant, about
ten miles west Of Colby, in Thomas
county. AS the law requires in such
petitions, it is signed by the township
trustee, who in this particular case
is William H. Crouch Of Hale town
ship.
Mr.. Crouch says that the only thing
which is holding back the RAPID de-
velOpment Of Levant, and its expan-
sion into a town OF considerable i'm
pOrtance is the fact that it has no de-
pot and no agent, and the passenger
trains 90 not stop The country which
is naturally tributary to Levant is
forced to make Colby its main trading
post
". w Waters runs a general store
at Levant, and seems to be sort of a
shOrt-grass pOh-bah- he sells mer-
chandise, farm implements, coal, ships
eggs and cream and pays the Rock Is
land about $500 a year in freight
charges. He has recently moved a
new building to Levant. and expects
TO start up a hardware store. Mr..
Waters shipped 100 cases Of eggs last
year, and 100 gallons Of cream to
the Continental creamery Of Topeka
The state Elevator OF Kansas City,
has a buyer at Levant. has located a
site for an elevator and will build in
the spring During the past two years
200 cars Of grain have been shipped
out and this season thus far thirty
I'VE cars OF wheat have been shipped.
''All freight that is shipped in
here" says Mr.. Couch, must be
prepaid at the shipping point, or il
wiH not be UnIOaded here. In case a
freight package is damaged the owner
must meet the train and see that the
same is noted on the way-biIl or there
is no way Of collecting damage.
ITO make a long story short, a per-
son doing business with the Rock Is
land must act as his own agent, and
pay just as much freight as the per-
son dong business at a point where
mis- needs are attended to by an agent.
Many people in the country tribu-
tary are constantly sending away for
freight and express packages and hay
ing TO go to Colby to receive it The
country is settling up fast and therail-
road company should send an agent
here and open up a freight and ex-
press Office. We also need stock
yards. Much stock would be shipped
from here if we had stock-yards."

Theatrical Company Billed for Good
land, November - for a Week
Manager Lowe OF the opera house
announces that he has secured a
weeks engagement with the Kerhoff-
HIlman company the first night OF
the company's appearance here be-
ing November -, Monday night and
closing the engagement the following
Saturday. This company has been
playing in some OF the best towns in
central Kansas, and have received
flattering press notices Of their work
The Kirwin Argus thus speaks Of the
Kerhof-Hillman company:
The Kerhoff- HflIman theatrical
company opened Monday night for a
weeks engagement at the opera house
and have been playing all the week
to large audiences. Monday night the
company played Gates Of Justice"
a beautiful play with all the facina-
tiOns and romance Of the south dur
ing the slave period. 1t was an ex-
ceIlent play and thoroughly enjoyed
by q large audience.
Tuesday nights piece was one Of
those absurd ones. telling Of a madly
jealous wife who could find evidence
Of peTddity where there was none
The situations and climaxes we're in
deed funny. The entire evening was
one Of laughter.
Wednesday nights bill was 'Dr.
Jeckell and MI Hyde" and Of all the
weird, nerve wrecking plays this one
is the limit. Mr.. Hillman, as DR..
Jerkyll and Mr.. Hyde, is one Of the
most unique characters we have ever
seen The change from man Of
noble, self-sacrihcing benevolent spirit
to one of the lowest in almost an in
slant was indeed marvellous. We be-
Heve this was one Of the heaviest
pieces played in the Kirwin opera
house and while you would like to
forget it, its memory viii cling to you
for years
Last night the play was one of en-
tire different nature and yet it was
considered by those who attended as
one Of their best productions The
Pearl Of Savoy is a beautiful piece
and the KerhOff-HiIIman company
know how to handle II.
The entire company are worthy Of
special mention having given the peO-
pie here one Of the best weeks enter
tainments they have ever enjoyed"
