Pulmonary diseases aro almost entirely unknown, except those arising from want of care during the sudilon changes of weather in winter and oarly spring.

Bilious disoaRos prevail to somo extent during very wot seasons. 3. All stroams have gravelly or rock bottoms, and afford puro water to drink at most seasons. 4. Wator power is abundant on most stroams; the fall in many of them, particularly tho Noosho, Cottonwood, Verdigris, Fall River and Big Walnut afford good mill sites evory fow miles.

Many parties will still donate good mill sites to any one who will improve them. 5. Streams and springs improve and increase in number as the country sottlos up and tho prairie is broken, unliko a timbered country, where they usually decrease. G. Timber is abundant when com 10 feot high, varying with tho season and locality When properly cured it others one-fourth was real, and tho othor fourth was owing to the fact that nineteon-twentieths of tho crop 26.

They only sook the low lands in search of wator.

13. Winters are short, but some-timos severe, and stock should be as well sheltered and cared for as though they were longer. 14. It pays to do work well, in this as in evory country. We havo too many shiftless, careless, lazy farmers, mechanics, traders, We don't want any more.

15. If you expect to make a living by your wits, you had hotter stay at homo. Wo have scon it tried, and it always results in failure. An old Kansan will take your measure at sight, and will cut your garment to fit very close indood. 10.

Tho State Normal School, located at Emporia, has an endowment of land not yot sold. Tho Agricultural Collogo at Manhattan, has also a landed endowment, a portion of which has been sold. The State University is at Lawrence, and has not sold the land belonging to it. 23. It is seldom advisable to bring common stock of any kind from distant Statos.

Largo quarries of pure gypsum, or land plaster, aro common in tho western and southwestern parts of the State, which if ground and applied to tho crops, after tho manner of Michigan and Ohio farmers, would, we bc-liovo, effectually "dry up" all drouths.
