Kansas Cited as One Of the
Strongest Proofs.

Washington, d. c., Jan. 8.-"There
is everv reason for believing that
prosperity cannot be prevented. and
that the year 1915 will see one OF the
greatest business revivals in the his
tory of the nation" said A. b. Rauel.
a prominent business man of st. Louis.
to the correspondent of the Topeka
State Journal.
This country" said Mr.. Rauel, 'sis
in splendid condition. and it was only
the lack Of confidence brought on by
the European war that caused the
temporary depression. Agriculture is
the backbone of our country, and
there was never year when crops
were so good as in 1914.
Take the state of Kansas, for in
stance. The state report estimates the
wheat crop at 181,0O0,0OO bushels.
while the federal governments guess
was 164, 100000. A year ago the Sum
than the crop. There is no question
that the Kansas wheat crop will net
more than $15O.000,0O0. A month ago
not more than 100000 bushels re-
manned in the farmers hands. Kan
sas is exceedingly rich. The state
owes only Il cents per capita. and the
wealth per capita Is enormous.
War Brings Profits.
I'VE are bound to profit by the Eu-
ropean war because the countries en-
gagged in that struggle must look to us
for a large part of their food supply.
Germany imports much of its food.
Russia generally supplies part. but the
latter country now needs all its own
products at home. Germany eats po-
tatoes and rye bread, and raises more
potatoes than the whole of Europe
does wheat. Therein lies the hope of
the German nation. If her soldiers
and people can subsist on potatoes,
Germany can keep up the struggle for
q long time. but If other food is need
ed, then England may be able to starve
Germany into final submission
I'm any event, the United States
must be the main source of supply
for all the nations of Europe, and there
Is no combination of circumstances,
as view the situation, that can pre-
vent a great period of prosperity for
u.s.

Makes Strong New Years Talk.
Hays, Kan, Jan. 8.-'"The future of
western Kansas does not lie in any
gimlet-hole specialists which may be
imported. but in the community
leaders which are now being trained
up in it's state schools said President
w. A. Lewis of the Fort Hays Kansas
State Normal school in the annual
New Years address to the student
body here this week. 1t was the largest
student body that ever listened to
New Years address.
These future community leaders
must keep the simple tastes they held
before they went off to school and
must get over the idea that they can
teach ma and pa everything when
they return" continued President
Lewis in the address. Community
leaders in western Kansas must know
how to do things unconsciously. To
acquire leadership they must absorb
it from living in an atmosphere of
leadership. They must live through
plans of actual leadership, take part
in them, and test their ability to in
terpret the needs of people. The

from this place went to the southern

jack rabbits. They secured eighty

he thought he could effect settlement
before that time and have the charges
dropped. A friend of McDonald's cali
