The Bartley correspondent of the
State Journal takes exceptions to the
report on the yield of corn as sent from
this county to the department for No
vember. Hear him : "The recent re
port of the agricultural department
says : 'In Red Willow county , the corn
is not cribbed , but will not exceed five
bushels to the acre , mostly cut for fed
der. ' And then adds "The facts are
there was but little to crib and there
was no corn on that cut early for feed. "
He claims to quote the report but his
quotation is not.in the November re
port. Following is a copy of the report
that was sent : "Corn not cribbed ; do
not think it will yield above five bush
els per acre on an average through the
county on what is standing ; mostly cut
up for fodder. Some farmers will need
help or suffer. " Five bushels per acre
seems a fair estimate on what was left
standing to mature. The report ap
pears on page 551 as follows ; "Not
cribbed. Will not exceed five bushels
per acre ; mostly cut up for feed. " A
later report was sent as to the average
yield per acre on what was cut and
standing both , and the estimate was :
"About one and one half bushels per
acre. " It seems this Bartley correspondent
pendent is greatly exercised over what
he would like to make people believe ,
is an over estimation of the yield of
corn. No doubt but the report is ap
proximately correct , his insinuations
and suspicions to the contrary notwith
standing. WM. COLEMAN.

RAILWAY FARES IN HUNGARY.
Workings of the Zone-Tariff.
[ Topics of the Time in The Century. ]
The "Zone-Tariff. " as it is called , was put in
operation in Hungary on the 1st of August ,
1889. It has , therefore , but a brief experience
to justify its practicability ; but the results
thus far have been so remarkable that its suc
cess seems to be assured. The method con
sists of a division of the territory of Hungary
into fourteen concentric zones. Budapest , the
capital , being the center. The first zone in
cludes all stations within 25 kilometers 16&
miles from the center ; the second , all more
than 25 and less than 40 ; all the zones except
the first , the twelfth , and the thirteenth are
15 kilometers , or a little more than 9 miles in
breadth , and the fourteen includes all stations
more than 225 kilometers from the capital.
The fare is regulated by the number of zones
which the traveler enters or crosses during
his journey. Reducing guldens to cents , the
rate is 20,16 and ten cents per zone , for first ,
second and third class passengers respective
ly. If one starts from Budapest and crosses
three zones he travels , therefnre , 55 kilome
ters , or about 34 miles ; if ho goes first-class ,
bis fare will be 60 cents ; if second class , 48
cents ; if third-class,30 cents.
For local truffle , when the traveler does not
cross the boundary of any zone , there are
special rates ; if he goes only to the nearest
station , the charges will be 12,6 and 4 cents ;
if to the second station from his starting-point ,
16 , 9 and 6 cents ; if to the third station , the
full rates of the zone are charged.
The greatest reduction , however , is in the
long distance The increase in the passen
ger traffic has been very great. For the first
eight months of the new system the number
of passengers carried was 7,770,876 ; for the cor
responding months of the previous year the
number carried was 2,891,332. It may be sup
posed that tbis increase was mainly due to the
great reduction in long-distance rates. On
the contrary , the gain is the largest in the
traffic between neighboring stations. Of such
passengers there were under the old system
255,000 ; under the new , $4,367,586.
Tbis vast increase of business has also been
accompanied by a substantial increase of
revenues.

The twenty-fourth volume of Alden's Ifani-
t > ld Cyclopedia has been issued. Though con
ducted in a quiet manner , this Cyclopedia is
one of the great literary undertakings of the
time. Something of its magnitude may be
seen by the fact that the closing topic of the
present volume is Montem. Sixteen more
volumes 'Will bo required to complete the
alphabet , all of which are promised within the
year 1891. In the present volume , five states
are treated : Michican is given over 16 pages ;

9 pages ; Missouri. 12 pages ; Montana , 10 pages.

tronomers ; Moliere , French poet and dramat

the renowned Jewish philanthropist. Among
the important topics in other lines are Mete
orology , Methodist Episcopal Church , Miasma ,
Michigan University , Microscope , Mind , Min
ing , Miracle , Missions , Mohammedanism , and

cure her. Her druggist suggested Dr. King's

and after taking ten bottles found herself
sound and well , now does her own housework
and is as well as she ever was. Free trial bottles
