season, shipped to England by James

Sam Darling, an Englishman. All

The selection of Darling to train

charge of them. But Rowe's desire

Reach Record Prices at Leayenworth

Leavenworth. KAN, Nov. 5-By an
increase put in effect Sunday the price
of butter, milk and cream has reached
the highest point inSten years in Leav-

higher than the prices which have
prevailed previously this season.
Double cream, the richest of the
separator products, has been raised in
price from SO cents a quart to so
cents
The increase in prices is attributed
to the greater cost of feed, the short
age of pasture and, the competition
among the consumers of milk. With
the winter closely approaching it is
improbable that conditions will inn
prove until spring. when it is possible
that the prices will drop to more
normal figure.

WHAT LINCOLN MUST DO.
Has Hard Struggle Ahead to Capture
the Championship.

1lftS olE0Ss-AC <2ACAu W capture
the Championship.
Lincoln. Neb., Nov. 5.-When Nebras-
ka and Ames clash on the gridiron at
Omaha Saturday, the ensuing battle
will settle in all probability the foot
ball championship of the Missouri val
ley. To be sure, Nebraska generally is
recognized as the premier team of this
section of the pigskin world and there
is little likelihood that the Jayhawkers
will throw the harpoon into the Corn
huskers. Nebraska probably will de-
feat the Iowa Aggies and then upon
doing the same thing unto Kansas, the
men of King Cole will claim the Mis-
souri, valley championship. That claim
will be the cue for the Cornell COL
legians, the Iowans who defeated Ames,
to rise up in their righteous indigna-
ton and themselves claim a partner
ship in the championship of the valley
Their claim to a certain extent would
be just one, but their glory would be
overshadowed by the career of the
CoFnhuskers against teams classier
than the elevens on the Cornell sche-
dufe. A good way for the Nebraskans
to further eliminate the Comedians will
be to drub Ames by bigger score than
did the team from the little Iowa col
lege.

CATTLE FOR EUROPE.
Three Train Loads of Kansas Beef

Alma, Nov. 5.-Three special trains

28 cars of fat Alma steers and two
cars of feed, bound for Liverpool,

shipped direct, so there will be no

These cattle have been fed about
fifty days on corn, oil meal and hull,
out of 5000 head Mr.. Kelly has on
feed near Alma. Their weight is esti-
mated at 1.400 pounds.
These steers are all strictly Agar
olds and are undoubtedly the best

they run very even. Some of the tops

you can see he will have to keep
pretty busy putting on fat to make

At the Chicago Automobile club,

that only $50 cars were registered

During June, July and August the

decrease was even more noticeable,
there being only $50 tags taken out

CAUGHT A YOUNG EAGLE.
Clay County Man Captures a Bird of
Enormous Size.

Clay Center. Kan. Nov. 5.-Joe Kay
brought a fine. specimen of. American
eagle to town and left it In charge of
Sam Engler. 1t is evidently a young
bird, though the measurement from
tip to tip is seven feet Joe gave him
dose of bird shot while he (the
eagle) was standing off a flock of
crows. The bird was not hurt much
and it was only after quite a tussle
that Joe was able to capture him.
Coming into town they had another
scrap. The bird got his talons fast to
the wheels on the buggy and his cap
tor had to resort to extreme measures
and use considerable manual dexterity
to get him loose again.

That our American forests abound in

That our American forests abound in
plants which possess the most valuable
medicinal virtues is abundantly attested
by scores of the most eminent medical
writers and teachers. Even the untu-
tored Indians had discovered the useful
ness of many native plants before the
advent of the white race. This informa-
ton, impaired freely to the whites, led
the latter to continue investigations until
to-day we have a rich assortment OF most
valuable American medicinal roots.

material, and therefore favorable to
the production of towering buds.
I think these quotations will enable
Mr.. Fisk and all others, who are sim
ilarly situated, to see why we should
prune in a certain way for wood
growth and in another way for fruit
fitness. l think the quotations sus-
tain my view that he has pruned too
heavily in cutting back such large
growths as to feet to 15 inches.
The way we do is to clip off the tops
of the long shoots in the spring. This
tends to stimulate the growth OF the
laterals and on these the most OF the
fruit buds will ultimately be found.
But, as stated before, we can not
cause Spitzenbergs to bear as soon
as some other. varieties. The same is
true of the Newtown Pippin. 1t is one
of the slow bearers. No doubt but
the same would be true of the North
ern Spy, but we do not top-work that
variety, for it is not a probable apple
to grow where our orchards are To-
Gated. 1t ripens too early In the fall
and will not keep into the winter.
My own opinion Is that Spleen

in every way be more profitable ap-
