as to to tllink we hnve really started Fast, and faint visions of our boy- hood home, its fona associations school days, auld lnng the busy hum ot a great city, its wharves lined with ships, steamboats, ocean steamers, steam ferry-boats, street cars and the surging masses of humanity eyer filling its streets, force themselves upon our mind as we rub our eyes energetically to make sure we are really wide awake and actually aboard this train. We roll gleefully out of Kansas, and proudly enter Miss Souri State, as used to call her in school, so to prevent conflicting her wih Mrs. Sipp' who was supposed to be mr.rried. The "old reliable'' Hannibal St. Joe Railroad is a tsuceess.

Its course leads through probably the ple.asantost portion of Missouri, affording the traveler full opportunity note the prosperous farms scattered over the rolling prairie, upland and bluff for miles around. But the crowning perfection in the way of lovely prairie home-scenery, handsome villas embowered in groves shade trees, crack farms, general beauty, comfort and success, is Illinois ever known as the Garden State" until Kansas stepped to the front and was accorded miprem-ac. Illinois, as seen from the Q. Railroad, is simply a second Kansas the same gentle swell of sui face that we iii Kansas designate smooth prairie the same oc casional rolling prairie, with hero and there a half-way blulT and break but they eannot match our rich alluvial holtoms and our natural timber. It is quite difficult believe that we are not really within the limits of Kansas until we note the magnificent improvements perceptible on every hand substantial plank fences with neatly-hung and painted gnte9, fine, roomy barns and grain storehouses, outbuildings of every description superb farm residences, their richly painted sides and gilded weather-vanes glistcuing in the sunlight, meadow-land, pastures, orchards and grainfields, all fenced ofr by themselves; wngon-roads fenced on oither sida mile after mile in succession blooded Iioi-hcs ana fine cattle and sheep grazing in clover and timothy pastures, and the realization of wealth and comfort visible everywhere.

No wonder that our Illinois friends so naturally settle down into prosperous Kansas farmers, for they are but starting anew, with almost the same surroundings as those in which they opened up in Illinois, long ago, when that country, too, was new, with the addition, now, in Kansas, of more timber and water, our matchless river ami creek bottoms, ami health-giving climate, limestone ami minerals. Each Illinois fanner bethought himself of future comfort about his home, and planted so now almost every farm-honse in the sec tion uiroi'gn winch we passed is surrounded with a oobbt grove of shade trees, forming, many instances, an apparently impenctra bio copse of living green. Almost every farmer has a wind mill in his pasture or at his house, or both. Ihey prefer water thus supplied to the bother of a creek running through the land, they sny A well can lie dug and a wind-mill erected here, complete, for 8150 to $17'), and never runs dry. Their white revolving dials are visible on all sides, being scattered every whero.

They run incessantly, if lesired, and are so constructed that a sudden gale throws them out of gear without injury or breakage. A tank of pure water is thus always provided whorever desired, at which stock come and drink at will. Whenever Kansas farmers adopt the same custom ol luniisluntr Dure. cool water for stock, and illustrate its value and will be a loud and reiwrnl demand for windmills in Kansas too. The railroad tracks and right of way (50 feet each side of track) are fenced with five-hoard fences the entire distance of tho line, on nil railroads.
