The beef trade has fallen into
the hands of a trust.' The largest
number of cattle slaughtered in
the west are of five or six large
concerns. On the 1st of January
1899 there were 1,000,000 less
steers in the United States than on
the 1st of January LSOS and that
fact mav have to do with the stiff
prices of beef cattle as well as the
work of the trusts. Chicago cat-
tie men say the present prices of
western beef cattle have been high-
r nnl v fiv times within the rr.usl

in 182 and in 1S83 and in l.SS t

From Bradstreet's of August 26,
1899: "Kansas and Nebraska have
produced Buch extraordinary crops
if corn this year that the people
tbe west are able to overlook tbe im
..w.. ..f runt dial Diner hucliuus
tbe countrrare not similarly blasst-d,"
88T8 the Kansas City Star. . "The
latest official crop reports indicate
that these two states will have 650,
000 000 bushels of corn this year,
compared -with onlv 292,000 000
bushels Droduced last year, an in-
crease of 358,000,000 bushels. But
the ftEnrrefrate crop of the enure
country, as at present estimated, is
onlv 214.000.000 busuele larger tnan
last year, so that outside of Havana
and Nebraska tbe country's corn crop
this year is 141,000,000 bushels less
than it whs in 1838. Almost all of
tbe states in the east and south have
lets corn this year than ast. lbe
deficiency in thoaa section 9 amounts
to over 100.000.000 bushels, ana as
the east and soutv-, even in their best
years, find it necessary to buy great
quantities of grain in the west, it is
evident that this 100,000 000 bushel
shortage this Tear wid result in un
usually large purchases from the
states which produce a surplus above
home needs. Not only are the east
and the south short, but even such
imnortant states as Ohio, Icdiaca
and Iovra have less corn this year
than las'. It is also-worth while to
bear in mind that the surplu3 of old
corn, carried over from preceding
crops, is much less now than it was a
year ago Another important fact to
remember ii that Eurcpa is certain
to take more corn this year than it
hss imported in the last twelve
months. The foreign demand for
corn is growing every year, though
the quantity which Europe takes is
dependent largely od prices. Whm
corn is as Ijw bs al present n foreign
demand for about 200,000,000 bush
els a j ear may be counted on with
reosoiiab'.e certsinly. In view of all
the facts and conditions hero enum
erated, farmers and merchants will
do well not to get their ideas about
prices too low. Big crops necessari
ly mutt cause low prices, but there is
no good reas-on for expecting tbe
value of corn this yeer to drop as low
as it has in two or three former jtais
of extraordinary crops. New corn
for Decembtr delivery is selling now
aronnd 24 cents hero and 20 cents in
Coicago. Ic 1896, when the great
est crop en record was produced,
corn sold as low as 17 cents a bushel
in Kansas City and ur.dtr 20 cents ii
Chicago. No such low prices are to
bo auticipated this year, for the rea
sens that have been stated, even
though it is true that Kansas and
Nebraska have raised eDough corn to
keep the railroads busy for two years
hauling it to market."

before the convention for State Treas
urer, Colonel James E. Barnett, and
he was nominated by acclamation.
Everything passed off as smoothly as
a pleasure boat sailing on a moua
tain lakelet at high noon on a sum
mer day, till tho resolutions came to
be read.
When the resolutions endorsing
the action of Governor Stone, in his
appointment of Quay to the United
Stat as Senate wero read a terrific
squall struck the placed political
waters of the convention. The wave
of excitmcnt ran mountain high, and
all aboard the Quay schooner were
perplexed. They felt as if a Jonah
had gotten aboard and raised a
storm, and they could not tell where
it wou!d land tbem. The Jonah of
the occasion was State Senator Fiinn.
Fortunately the whale was present,
into, which Fiian and 48 other dele
gates dumped themselves in the volo
on the resolutions. Flinn and his
fellow 48 delegates are in the bell.T of
that vote. The vote stood 192 for
the resolutions, 49 against the reso
lutions. "When Flinn and the other

Mr. Carl E. Myers, the aeronaut, in
discussing the question of aerial navi

of the ballon over the aeroplane. The
latter cannot stop or hover hi the nir
and If caught in a storm may Ih-oiuo

The balloon, on the other hand, while
It cannot go against the wind, is safe,
even in a tempest, provided no effort Is
made to drive it iu opposition to the
air currents. Even In a high wind the
balloon seems to the aeronaut to be be

The writer has experienced a
day of traveling through this re

Walking through in summer you
will suppose it the mo3t solitary

During dry weather the sand iu
the road becomes several inches
deep and on both sides of the . road
are tall slender pine trees over
shadowing the thick underbrush,
which makes it almost impossible j
for one to pass through. For miles
you will find no signs of any habi

distance is heard the mournful clap
of the lumberman's ax, and upon
approaching the place of the camp
a lew shanties, each about fif

throughout this region.
