senator george ID. Hunter OF
Wellington has evolved a plan to
make Kansas turkey wheat the
premier wheat of the world and
to greatly stimulate the produc-
ton of high grade wheat in
Kansas. Senator Hunter is put
ting his plan in the form of a
bill which will be introduced in
the legislature shortly after the
beginning of the approaching ses
sion.
Secretary Coburn is enthusiasts
tic in endorsement Of the plan
which Senator Hunter will pre-
sent and thinks that its adop-
ton will be Of almost inestima-
bic advantage to the farmers Of
the state.
Senator Hunters bill will pro-
vide for the appropriation Of
100000 by the state, creating a
revolving fund to be used in
the importation Of fine seed
wheat from Russia and Alberta.
This revolving fund will be hand
! led in much the same way as tn,
revolving fund from which CAPT.
| tai is drawn on which to run
the binding Irvine plant at the
penitentiary at Lansing. Its
not the intention of Senator Hun
ter that the state derive any
actual profit from the seed whea
business any more than it does
from the manufacture of bind
ing Irvine, although his plan con-
templates that the state be re-
imbursed for the expenditure ne
cessary to start the seed wheat
project.

Find q vss For the Appendix
Will wonders never ceassi
VIII science ever rach its limit?
Current events answer US. Now
comes an English surgeon, who
has found a use for the appendix
hitherto always considered a use
less member Of the human anatO-
my. A news dispatch says:
What purports to be an impor-
tant discovery in reference to
the appendix is described by
one of the surgeons of the West
London Hospital, apparently
showing that the dangerous. Elys
FERROUS organ can greatly help
a surgeon in treating diseases
of the lower intestines. The diff
Guilty of applying medicines IN
the lower intestines is overcome
by using the appendix as a duet.
The operation begins exactly
in the same manner as that for
appendicitis but instead OF re-
moving the organ, the surgeon
threads it through the various
layers of muscle in the abdomlna
wall and attaches it to the skin.
It is then opened and by a tube
passed through it any necessary
medicine can be applied directly
to the mucous membrane Of the
lower intestine. The appendix,
it is said, may safely be left opel
in this positionbecause the ao-
dominal muscles protect it SUI
ficiently.
Now, therefore, all you people
whose appendix is disturbing 20
hang onto it, because some day
.fou may need it.
An Adventurous Correspondent
Few newspapers in the United
States are able to command the
services of as brilliant a corps
of. correspondents as The CHI
UAGO RECORD-HERALD. Its
choice of Walter Wellman torep-
resent it at Washington is a
good illustration of its wise pol
icy of getting the best there is
to be had. Mr.. Wellman has won
a national reputation as a mag
netic and resourceful news writ
er. And now he is preparing to
clinch his reputation for origl-
nality and daring by trying to
reach the north pole in an air
ship.
Whatever mayb e the results OF
Mr.. Wellman's daring attempt
an airship and send the news OF
the voyage at once to THE CHI
CAGO RECORD-HERALD ex-
petition is sure to be conduct
ed by Mr.. Wellman with the
same cool courage and wholesoul
ed enthusiasm that have made
him an ideal newspaper CORE
spondent.

a Famous Newspaper Nan.

William E. Curtis, the famous
correspondent of the Chicago Re,
ord Herald writes a two-column
letter for his paper every day in
the year without intermission. Hi
powers Of sustained work are as
great a marvel as his faculty of
always making his matter inter-
esting.
Probably no other newspaper
correspondent in the country is
read SO regularly and eagerly BY
so many thousands of men and
women as Mr.. Curtis. Mr.. Curtis
has travelled several times around
the world, visiting every country
under the sun, and writing a lare
er number of brilliant and int
eresting letters of travel than
were ever before produced by a
single hand. Many Of these have
later been reprinted in book form
One of his latest expeditions for
the Chicago Record-Herald was
through Mexico, resulting in a Sc
ries of letters as entertaining as
those he wrote a few years ago
from India, Turkey and the Holy
Land. His forthcoming letters
from Ireland, Russia and German
will rival in Importance and in
terest any of his previuos contri-
buttons.
Beginning his career in Chica-
go as a reporter in 1872, Mr..
Curtis rapidly rose to managing
editor. He resigned that position
to accept a government appoint
'ment as secretary of the South
American commission. So brill
iantly did he perform the duties
this office that James G. Blaine,
Secretary of State, placed him at
the head of the Bureau of Amerl
can Republics. At the worlds
fair in Chicago he distinguished
himself as the executive head OF
the Latin-American department.
He is a member of almost every
learned. society in Washington
and of many in Europe. 1t is not
strange that The Record-Herald
prints Mr.. Curtis letter every
day in the first column Of the
front page, and that nothing bu
California earthquake can dis
place it from that station OF
honor.
