Kansas Lands.

A bulletin issued by the De-
partment of Agriculture shows
that farm lands in Missouri have
increased one third in value in the
last five years. The increase in
Kansas during the same period
has been from so to 500 per cent.
The true value of Kansas lands is
only just beginning to be realized.
The resources of the state are SO
varied and so immense that it is
difficult to properly estimate
them. Kansas is one of the great
agricultural states, but it is also
great in many other directions.
1t will soon be one of the great
manufacturing states. Its climb
to the stars has been attended with
an occasional difficulty but it is
getting there in great shape.

A TRAVELLING SCHOOL OF AGRICUL-
TTJRE

Cornell university in New York will
this summer make an entirely rev
and somewhat unique departure in its
agricultural work. Following a petit
ton signed by seventeen students who
were DESTROYS of becoming acquainted
with agricultural conditions existing
in different portions Of the United
States, the college will send out a
special car, fitted with the accommoda-
tons for the housing and study equip
ment of the students during their trip.
1t has been styled a travelling school OF
agriculture. Those in charge plan to
start on the trip about the LIST Of July,
the itinerary being planned with a
view to covering about eight weeks,
while the cost per student is placed at
about $500. The car will go from
Ithaca f. Buffalo and through Ohio, II
linois, Iowa, Nebraska, Colorado, Tex
as, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alaoama.
Georgia, South Carolina, Virginia,
Pennsylvania and back home. In a
way this experiment will be along the
line of the seed corn and good road
special trains which have been in oper-
alton on many lines Of road in the up
per Mississippi valley during the past
two years, proving both popular and
greatly beneficial to the agricultural
interests of the localities visited. The
course of agricultural instruction con
templated in the above tour will give
the students who take advantage Of it
a first hand and intimate as well as ex-
tensiye acquaintance with the condi
tons and methods Of agriculture cover
ing the whole country and will give a
breadth Of view and a fund Of practical
information that could hardly be got
from study in one place or in ore
school.

RURAL NAITl SERVICE

A writer in a recent periodical sug-
gests If the money that is now be-
ing expended in the maintenance of
the rural mail delivery system were
devoted to improving the roads Of the
various counties in which the service
is maintained that the farmers con
cerned would get a great deal more
practical benefit than they at present
derive from the mail service. VII a
there may be an element Of truth III
the view presented, the writer seems to
overlook the fact that an amount of
money that would if properly expend-
ed produce good roads in one locality
would hardly make a beginning in
others and to forget the further fact
that the inauguration Of the rural mail
delivery system has given a greater inn
petus to the cause Of good roads than
any other single influence that has ever
been eXerted. We believe most hearth
~ in the gospel Of good roads, but be
lieve it will be furthered rather than
hindered by the continuation of the
present excellent rural mail service.

SCHROEDER STILL ALIVE
Man Burned in Explosion on Sand
Tug Taken to Marine Hospital


John Schroeder, the Milwaukee man
who was terribly burned by steam
while at work on a sand tug in the
Kenosha harbor Wednesday after
noon, is still alive but it is feared that
he cannot survive. Schroeder was
removed to the Marine hospital in
Milwaukee Wednesday night and
everything possible is being done to
save his life.
Schroeder was literally cooked by
escaping steam. He had craw1ed into
a small space at one side of the en-
CINE and was busy oiling the machin-
cry when the after head Of the cylin-
der blew out. His escape was com
pletely cut off by the steam and for
some time he lay on the floor of the
boat while the hot steam was being
poured over him. After he had lain
in this position for over minute one
of the other employees of the boat
managed to shut off the steam. When
the clothing was removed from the
injured man great pieces of the flesh
chung to it. The physicians at the
hospital in Milwaukee stated this
afternoon that he had a bare chance
to recover.

Railway Officials and Council
Committee Hold Conference
With No Definite Results
WANT BONUS FOR THE CITY
Suggest That the Company Pave the
Streets. Build Bridge and Give
the City CASH to the Ex-
tent of $4,000

/ There will be no report from the
railway committee to the city coun-
Gil on Monday evening, as the con-
ference between the members of the
committee and the officials of the Chi
cago, Kenosha & Milwaukee company
1a1Ied to bring any definite results.
+ Inc company was not ready to meet
the demands of the committee and the
committee had SO many suggestions
to make to the officials of the COM
pany that it was impossible for the
conference to make any agreement
at all. The company had planned to
present a new proposition to the COM
mittee but it was not forthcoming and
It will be submitted in writing before
next Monday. The proposition will
deal with the' paving of streets to be
passed over with brick. The man
ayers OF the company have not con-
sented to agree. with this proposition.
BUTT is possible that the managers of
the company will consent to pay at
least portion of such paving. The
company told the committee that it
would live up to the original PROPOSE
ton to macadamize the streets and
put IN steel bridge but the men ex-
pressed the opinion that this would be
the extent to which the company
would go.
Alderman James O'Brien, who is
the chairman of the committee IN
formed the managers Of the company
that it was his opinion that the COM
panJ should agree to pave all streets
passed over with brick, to build
steel bridge and pay thescity bonus
of $4,000. The managers of the COM
pany simplys1augh he'd at the PROPOSE
ton. This is the first time that any
OF the companies have been asked to
pay the city bonus for the use of
the streets and it is not thought that
the company would consent to such
an arrangement. The matter Of the
installation of a local line was taken
up at the conference and strongly
urged by Mayor German, who stated
that the people of Ashland avenue
ought to have better railway trans.
portation to the center of the city.
The managers of the company in
formed the mayor that if he could
figure out right Of way for a local
line on streets not all already pre-
empted by the Kenosha Electric Rail
way company, the company would
build it as soon as a franchise was
granted by the city.
Pending the written proposition
from the company he committee was
unable to go further into the matter
and every thing was laid over until
after second conference which will
be held on next Friday afternoon. At
this time it is expected that both the
committee and the managers of the
company will present an ultimatum
and an effort will be made to reach
some com promise.

LEARN THE HABIT OF SAVING.

absolutely necessary that a few dol
lars-a hundred, more or less-should
be laid aside as a nest egg. 1t is this
amount = the first hundred and the
habit Of saving acquired il accumulat-
ing it that have more to do ia giving
the young man financial and business
start in the world than any $500 which
he accumulates afterward. There are
scores of young men, hardworking and
Industrious who have no sense of
ownership and possess no proprietary
interest simply because they fail to
make the start In many cases this
hand to mouth method Of earning. and
spending is due to young men not hav-
ing others dependent upon them. While
young woman runs considerable risk
in marrying chaps Of this type, she of
ten furnishes the necessary incentive
to saving.
