KNOW IT WELL.
Familiar Features Well Known To
Hundreds Of Great Bend Citizens.

A familiar burden in many homes.
The burden Of a "bad back"
A lame, a weak or an aching back
Often tells You Of kidney ills.
Doan's Kidney Pills are for weak
kidneys.
Here is Great Bend testimony.
W. S. Tucker, 1910 Hubbard St.,
Great Bend, Kansas, says: I was
Obliged to do a great deal of driving
and the constant jarring Of the rig
weakened my kidneys. My back was
so lame after sitting for a while that
it was almost impossible for me to
get up without great pain. l had
heard so much in praise of Doan's
Kidney Pills that l was led to try
them. l hardly expected that such
wonderful relief would follow. The
pains in my back soon stopped and l
am also rid of a distressing kidney
weakness that had annoyed me. The
trouble has never returned"

KANSAS WHEAT YIELD.

Kansas will not have as large a
crop of wheat this year as she had
expected some earlier in the season
and before the hot days Of May. She
will not have so much wheat as on
some other years, but she will harvest
a crop that will be very, very large.
Kansas will have more than seven.
ty-five million bushels of wheat and
this is a crop that will far exceed
that of any other state. 1t will be
larger than any agricultural crop, say
In two or three states. It will bring
in a vast amount of money. It will
add much to the bank account OF
many farmers.
With her wheat crop Kansas will
have a return for her work that will
be greater, in dollars, than the min
eral wealth of any state farther west
and the western states claim much
for their minerals. Her wheat money
will make larger pile than the year e
gold output in all the states west Of
the Mississippi river, and this ism t a
small amount. The wheat check will
have larger figures and a longer row
OF them than is received for all the
minerals in the west half of the Unit
ed States, save gold. 1t will represent
more money than any other business
In the west, excepting the combined
live stock interests of a group of
western states.
The Kansas wheat yield was short
ened to some extent, to be sure, but
1t Is still large enough to be the talk
Of the world. And the loss this year
may show the wheat growers some
lessons in seeding that will more thar
make it back In future years. If Kan
sas seeds her fields in the best pos
sible way, after properly preparing
the soil, she may expect larger yields
The lack Of a record-breaker this
year may make Kansas inquire the
reason, and then find out some meth.

Broke At Right Time.

What might have proven to be a
disastrous accident occurred in the
railway yards at Hoisington last week
one day when passenger train No. 3,
enc Of the fastest trains on the di-
vision, lost one of the big drivers off
the engine as they were slowly pull
ing out of town. Another engine
was at once secured and the train
went ON its way, but it is mighty
lucky that the accident occurred just
where it did, for the result would
probably have been an appalling dis
aster had it happened between sta
tions when the train would be run

Colorado isn't so much of a live

The census figures show that the av.

each farm has 70 per cent of one

Al per cent Of a hog, which explains

Mr.. Fogarty always has resided IN

The Americans, especially those

strongest man Mexico has developed
since Porfirio Diaz, and his election

Mexican enterprises.
