KANSAS BREAKS HER RECORD.

Kansas City Journal.-Great is Kan
sas, and Secretary Coburn is her
prophet! According to this admirable
statistician of the state board Of agri-
culture Kansas has outdone herself
this year, and when Kansas does that
it means that all previous records Of
prosperity have been broken into in
blasting winds that once vexed the
farmers of Kansas have been for
ever tempered by the forestry de-
partment of the Great White Father
at Washington, and the rains are as
steady and soft as the gentle dews of
mercy which fall from heaven.
According to Secretary Coburn's
figures, the aggregate value Of the
crops and live stock produced this
think of it, Kansas surplus wealth
each year, not counting the per cap
tia deposit of SIC in the banks, would
pay off the national debt in two years.
Adding the money on deposit 1t would
pay the entire annual expenses of the
national government, the most expen-
sive government in the world today.
While the effete, countries Of Europe
with their teeming millions of people,
are struggling to make both ends
meet, the million and a half popula-
ton of Kansas could pay all the ex-
penses of any one Of them, without
issuing bond or executing mort
gage. Such is the prosperity Of one
of our forty-five states.
Some idea Of the diversified products
of Kansas can be gained from Mr..
Coburn's tabulated report, comprising
wheat, corn. oats, rye barley, buck
wheat Irish and sweet potatoes, cas-
tor beans, cotton, flax, tobacco, broom
corn, millet, sorghum, hay, cheese, but
ter, milk, poultry, eggs, wool, honey
beeswax, fruits, vegetables and live
stock of all kinds. Her wheat crop
brings in $53,871 ,624; her corn is worth
$68,718,5S4; live stock, s169,s21,157
hay, $17,O00,0O0; cheese, butter and
milk, ss.56s,35O; poultry and eggs,
$S,541,153.
Scientists say that Kansas has
greater wealth under the soil than on
the surface Her iron, zinc, lead and
coal mines are in the infancy of devel-
opment, and her gas and oil fields are
said to be the largest and richest in
the world.
Blessed is Kansas the land of milk
and honey, where the farmers ride in
automobiles and steam plows and live
in clover.

son with himself he wants his wife to
be. For instance, his first wife on the
average is four years younger than he.
His second is ten. His third is twenty
or thirty. Hear the testimony of a
veteran of 70 with a third wife of 21:
You can't marry girl too young.
The younger she is the longer she'll
keep her health and strength and
beauty. Furthermore, the older you
are the more respect she'll have for
you. She'll reverence you and obey
you as she would her own father or
grandfather. Young wives rejuven-
ate old husbands. They make the old
fellows dress younger, talk younger.
act younger and actually feel younger.
Youth is contagious. A young wife
will prolong an old husbands life"

Barney Fox, the man who was
thrown from his wagon at the corner

Saturday afternoon by being struck
by street car, was not as seriously
injured as was at first supposed When
Fox was first picked up it was thought
that he was probably fatally woundedI
He was taken to the Ottumwa hospi-t
tai In the ambulance where it was
found that an artery above his eye
had been cut the wound bleeding
profusely. After he had received the
necessary medical attention he became

the patrol wagon was called and he
was removed to the Jail, where he was
kept until Sunday morning, when he
was allowed to go home, apparently
little the worse for his experience.

thing especially glazing in the way OF
an inaccuracy had disturbed Mr.. Nc
Adoo's equanainl:ty on this particular
occasion, tcT he is too able man to
indulge in such criticism off-hand 1t
is also pretty safe venture to assert
that when he got over his little fit Of
anger he decided that he would be
wiser to give the reporters the advan-
tage of his researches than to force
them to find out for themselves what
they could and in whatever way they
could invent.
The Fourth Estate, of New York,
comments upon the commissioners re-
mark, and defends the newspaper in
the following way:
If Mr.. McAdoo, or any other fault
finder will put in week of his valu-
able time at reporting he will be amaz-
ed not that printed inaccuracies are so
many, but that they are so few. Even
the best trained memory and the keen
est observation are liable to error. and
1t is not upon them alone nor chiefly
that newspaper must depend for its
information.
"A newspaper gets it's material from
all sorts OF sources. 1t must take the
testimony of witnesses sometimes
lacking in honesty, sometimes in intel
ligence, sometimes in both. AS far as
circumstances permit, this evidence is
sifted when there is reason to question
it. No lawyer grown gray in practice
is more suspicious than an experienced
newsgatherer. Every effort is made
TO present both sides of a matter in
controversy.
witnesses in court kiss the Bible,
invoke the help of God, and go on to
| lie deliberately. They all know that
! they can be imprisoned for perjury,
and many OF them believe that the AL
mighty will punish them for their lies.
! Yet they lie just the same If the dread
of temporal and spiritual penalties
does not avail to make men and wo-
men truthful is it to be wondered at
! that newspapers are sometimes mis-
led?
THE errors in the news are far
more often the results of bad memory,
faulty power of attention, slovenly hab-
it's of speech and nervous excitement,
than of willful deception If Commits
/ stoned McAdoo or any one else can
point out means of eliminating or ev-
en- reducing inaccuracy in news re-
ports, newspaper men will honor him
with undying gratitude"
