A Society has boon recently formed in London to advocate tho improve ment and cheapening of the diet, one ols its main opjects being to show that a flesh diet is much more costly than ai vegetable one, and los3 nourishing.

Stover's drug store, and has ordered a largo stock of drugs, notions, perfumery, etc. Mr. Oliver is a pleasant, thorough and accomplished business man, anil wo believe tho good people of this plnce will give him a hearty welcome in tho way of patronage. Starting ont Monday afternoon to call on some of tho farmers in the southern part of this county, the first man wo visited was Dr. J.

B. Kerfoot, who owns a splendid farm of PiO acres, miles southwest of acres of which are under cultivation and every foot of which is good tillable land. Dr. Korfoot has 21 head of cattle, 2' mules, .2 horses and 13 hogs, all of which are in excellent condition. He also has a good stock of poultry.

Dr. Kerfoot has 50 acres of corn, which, judging from its present appearance, we should think will yield 75 bushels to the acre, though tho doctor places tho yield at 50 bushels. Ho has this year, in common with all tho rest of our farmers, enjoyed the blessing of a lino crop of wheat, which is now in tho stack awaiting the threshing machine. Any notico of Dr. Korfoot's place would be incomplete without mentioning some of tho mnoy improvements, and we might state that tho doctor came to Kansas with no money 'whntover not enough fo buy a toani in the spring of 1875.

He now owns tho farm, which is all well fenced. A large, well-painted house; is located on rising ground, and is in size 11x28 with an IMG. A young orchard containing thrifty apple trees, peach and other varieties, as well as small fruits, and a lot of young and healthy maple timber. The doctor is an intelligent and influential man, mid thinks that any man who has push and enterprise can make a success of farming in this country. Sterling 'evs J.

Smith Chase, Kas. 3. Mdsemore- Railroad Land Agent, Ami general dealer in real estate property. Agent for K. K.

T. L. lands. General dealer in Implements and sewing machines, Notary Public, Insurance and Loan Agent. ALDEN, A new town on the grout Atchison, Topeka Santa Fe railroad, is in that section of country in Rice coanty known as the Pleasant Valley.

The town can hardly bo said to bo more than a year old, and the greatest part of thattlmo it was without depot advantages. Lately that important accession has been made. The eleva tor, while not of the most approved style, is good, all tho same. Coal, such grades as are used, can be obtained here at as low a price as anywhere on tho main lino. Groceries, dry goods, notions, are offered at the usual prices; wo have 'a postoflico and an eiilcient and obliging postmaster; we also have one physician.

and notwithstanding our country is so salubrious there do como times when his sorvices are needed, find we also havo a land and real estate agent and one house that caters to the public appetite. There is to be seen on the ground, in this state, assured as to rain and other conditions, about 200,000, 00(1 bushels of corn. This may be really considered yne of tho most conservative efforts of the estimate fiend. Comparing the situation with last year at tho same season a year which produced 385,000,000 bushels-reliable and intelligent people are looking for a Kansas corn crop which will reach 220,000,000 bushek Unless mojo has boon spoiled in harvesting-than there is account of, Kansas has this year 50,000,000 bushels of wheat. The render is refpicsted to pause a moment at this product of one staple for a single new eommnni-ity, and to reflect that all I he tyranical and overbearing railroads that our neighbors have lately been making trouble for and about, will havo hard scratching to be able to rolling stock enough loefennugh to haul it away within any reasonable time, for it would load a freight train about thrco-lil'lhs as long an it is far from Kansas Cily to Now York..
