AN AGRICULTURAL JOKE.

That Kansas farmers should possess
more dogs than sheep would seem TO
approach the ultimate in the realm of
agricultural jokes. Yet Mr. Mohler,
the secretary of the state department
of agriculture, vouches for that fact
and gives the figures at $4,000 dogs
and only 10000 sheep. Mr.. Mohler
is certain that only a few sheep on
each farm would add millions of dol
lars to the agricultural wealth of the
state, and with that fine optimism for
which he is famous, he is equally GER
tain that some day the Kansas farmer
will take advantage of the rich returns
that sheep-raising affords. And if the
Kansas farmers use little of the wis
dom of which they are possessed they
will hasten that day along.

Bill Is Back.

Bill Writ is home from Detroit,
where he had a job as conductor on
the street railway of that city. Bill
says the reason that he quit his job
and came back was because the city
water didn't agree with him. In the
first place, we don't know what a
fellow wants with water in Detroit,
and in the second place, we've got
slight suspicion that Bill was home
sick to see his girl again. We know
to keep us awake nights trying to
figure out what was the matter with

man who catches a rainbow only seven
feet long throws it back to give it a
