At 50 cents a bushel, which is eertainly a low estimate, the value to the acre would be 812.50. Assuming that com will yield an average of fifty bushels and that it would bring 20 cents, the value to the acre would be 810. Oats will yield in Kansas eighty bushels to the acre and will bring at least 15 cents a bushel making 82.00 to the acre. These estimates, both as to yield and price, are liable to fall below rather than exceed the true figures, so that the cluim of an average product of $13 to the acre is not far from correct. At any time within thejpast two years, many of the farms which have made that much money this season for their owners, could have been purchased for $13 cash per acre.

The young couple at that time did not plan adroitly enough, and their devising was brought to naught by the father of the would be bride overtaking them as they sped in the small hours of the night On last Wednesday evening, however, the arrangements were more perfectly laid, and under the guise of attending a party the young lady left the house of W. D. Russell, where 6he was working, and in company with "him whom she loved best silently stole away." Miss Musa is scarcely 15 years of age, and by her parents thought much too young to assume such a relation. But Cupid is rash, and the course of true love does not always run smooth.
