Kansas and it is thoroughly alive to
the needs of thef armers and full of
sensible and business like suggestions
as to how the rqpst can be made from
farm life Mostf farm papers from the
East have liltle in common with our
western and southern people and

in the west and spent last summer
here and is fully acquainted with the
peculiar position of the western and
southern farmer He is also familiar

Within a circle nrany hundreds si
