BETS AVERAGED 10 TONS.

E. E. Frizell has received returns
from the twelve cars of sugar beets
shipped to the Garden City sugar
factory last week, and the weights
show that his beetS averaged nine
teen tons to the care, which is
about the best yield in the state
for this year.
AS he gets S. per ton on track at
this place, it means they brought in
s95 per acre. This is for the beets
alone. Mr.. Frizell figures that the
tops, which average about two and
one-half tons of dry hay to the
acre, are easily worth $40 per acre
this year for feed. He estimates the
total cost of raising the beetS is
$91 per acre, this amount covering
blowing, planting and cultivation. The
beets at $95 per acre and the tops at
$40 per acre, makes a gross income
Of Sis per acre. Subtracting the
$S1 per acre expense, leaves a net
profit Of $S4 per acre.
What's a fair price for land that
will bring a net income Of sS4 per
acre per year? Does irrigation pay??

COCHIN IS FAvORITE BREED
Four Varieties, Each Having Single
Combs and Differing Only In
Point Of Plumaee Color.

The question is frequently asked,
what Is the best breed Of chickens!
The answer depends entirely upon
what purpose you wish them for, and
can be answered best by yourself.
The larger birds are intended as q
combination fowl, |. g., to produce
both eggs and meat IN desirable guam.
titles, while the smaller and more &C.
tive breeds are considered the egg
machines, and many breeders Of them
claim excellent table qualities for
them, which no doubt they possess,
the only objection being their small
size.
The Cochin Is an old and popular
breed and has four varieties, each
having single combs, and differing
only In point Of plumage color. which
Is: Buff, partridge, black and white,
the bun being the preference. Their
weights are: Cocks, II pounds; cock.
erels, 8; hens, 81; pullets, Z.
The other varieties in this class
are: The Langshans, black and white.

RoUP IN THE CHICKEN FLOCK
Disease 10 Prevalent Where Fowls Ars
Kept In Filthy, Damp and Poor.
ly Ventilated ouartera
Rv r w RAzArETERN

By r. ". KAZMEIER.)
Roup Is prevalent In hocks kept In
filthy, damp. poorly ventilated quar-
tiers. Vigorous stock In good sur
roundings proves quite resistent to the
disease.
Common colds do not develop into
roup II the specific germ Is not pres
emit The common belief Is that roup
Is developed from q neglected cold.
This is not the case, although It sup
plies the conditions so that the roup
germs can easily get foothold.
For the benefit Of those who have
been unlucky enough TO get this ter
rible disease introduced into their
flock | give the following successful
way Of combating roup: First re-
move all conditions which tend to fos-
ter 1t, next, remove all affected birds
as soon as discovered. Place them IN
q clean, dry room, Of even tempera-
ture, that is free from draughts Of air.
II you desire to doctor them, treat as
soon as the earliest symptoms are
detected. Disinfect the poultry house
and runs with five per cent. solution
OF carbolic acid and repeat this disin-
lection at least once a week. Feed q
we'll balanced ration containing some
meat scraps. Burn all dead birds. A
far developed roupy chicken Is worth
more dead than alive. One good rem
edy Is to put few drops Of kerosene
oil on the affected fowls head. This
is also excellent for common colds.
Peroxide Of hydrogen and water half
and half, or creolin or carbolic acid In
two per cent. solution may be used in
the same manner. One OF the remedies,
that as rule gives the best results,
Is q solution Of two ounces Of perman-
ganate Of potash In six pints OF water.
Submerge the fowls head in II Just
long enough to prevent 1t from suffo-
eating. Any Of these liquids will help
clear the nasal and throat passages
and destroy disease germs.
A good preventive is to dissolve
two ounces Of permanganate Of potash
In twelve parts Of water and give to
all the birds to drink at least three
times week and on such days give
no other water to drink.
Remember, the very best preventive
Is an abundance Of fresh air without
draughts, plenty Of sunshine and sanI.
tary surroundings. and guard against
introducing the germ.

A DRAMATIC TREAT.

Many plays of American origin
are Just as we'll supplied with the
dramatic starting point, but fail tc
hold the great human interest, the
picturesque dignity and charm of at
mcspheTe that has caused the endur.
ing popularity of the "Virginian."
To suggest the sympathetic in,
sight, thee literary freshness and un.
affected elOquence that has been Civ.
en- its characters is a task that few
authors attain. The story is a pref
ty one, and far above the ordinary
plot Of such offerings in the nature
Of logic and coherency of theme. II
has none OF the blood and thunder
features of many Of the so-called
dramas of the plains, yet teens with
intense dramatic moments. The
love interest is particularly strong
and has to do with interesting and
vital characters in a clean, whole
some way. It tells of the battle Of
the great hearted, simple minded man
of the plains into whose life has
come change in the person of an
eastern girl of culture and refinement
against whose manners Of great civil
hzation he feels but does not easily
understand. With a play possessing
the qualities of "The Virginian" adj
equately produced and artistically
acted, one is refreshed with the re-
hinder that an evening at the thea
tire is still eminently worth while.
Jones & Cranes beautiful produc-
ton Of the above play will be the
attraction at the X. C. Opera House
at Elinwood on Saturday evening
December 18th.

BIG FEES FOR SAND.

Topeka, Nov. 2S.-The sand law
in Kansas will bring into the state
treasury close to thirty thousand dol.
lars a year. That is the estimate
based on the figures for the first
five months the law has been in
operation. W. E. Davis, state audi.
tor and the author of the law. has
received s12,523.29 from the differ
ent sand companies since the law
became effective. This includes the
October statements. It Is asserted by
the sand men that their operations
are practically as heavy during the
winter as any other time Of the
year, as they keep their plants run
ming to furnish sand for rough work
such as railroad fills, while during
the summer the sand is furnished to
a large extent chiefly for building
operations.
The state is unable to use any
of the money collected thus far
from the sand fund because of the
suits brought to test the law. 1t was
decided that the money should be
kept in a separate fund, because all
Of 1t was paid under protest. If the
courts hold the law void then the
money can be paid back promptly,
while it would require a Legislative
enactment to pay the money back
If 1t were put into the general rev.
eenue fund before the law is upheld.
One Of the big sand companies has
not paid in a penny for the sand tax.
This is the Jackson Walker Coal and
Material Co., of Wichita. 1t refus-
es to pay the tax because it MAIN
tains that it is taking sand from the
Arkansas river on land which they
own and which has come down to
them on am old Indian grant. The
business Of this company amounts to
many thousand dollars a month and
it is expected that its sand tax win
amount to about six hundred dol
lars a month. The company went IN
to the federal courts to stop the
collection Of the tax.
There are twenty firms which are
taking sand out Of the navigable
streams of the state. Some Of them
are small and the tax is only a few
dollars a month but the most Of the
companies take enough sand topay
several hundred dollars a month
each. The state has not been get
ting an of the revenues from the tax
it viii receive later because Of num-
erous large contracts made months
before the law was enacter and no
tax could be collected on these con-
tracts.

Keen Male Birds Away

The poultryman who will keep his
male birds away from the hens dur.
ing the summer and fall months will
reap the benefit Of his foresight in the
extra strong fertility Of his eggs dur.
ing the coming Matching season. The
male bird that spends the summer
and winter months in celibacy is In a
much better condition to impregnate
the eggs than one who has run with
the hens the year round and is sexual
ly exhausted or partially 30.
