I EIRE YIELD OF WHEAT ON THE COUNTY'S FARM Judging from the amount of wheat that was produced on the county farm this yeai1 It would not be too much to hope that this Institution might sometime come to be more or less self supporting. The. county farm is un der the management of Ben Merrill, and he reports that he threshed out 651 bushels of wheat recently. This Is more than has ever been produced on the farm since the county bought it, and so far as anyone knows It is more than has ever been produced on this land. On one and one-fourth acres Mr. Merrill raised 41 bushels. Just what this means may bo the more easily understood when it Is ex plained that the average acre does not produce much more than IB bushels, and 26 bushels Is considered a good yield. The farm has iieen greatly Im proved since the county bought It and there would not seem to be much dif ficulty In making It a model farm, as It should le, one that the people can look at with' pride and one where tho farmers can see the result of Im proved methods.

Taking for his subject 'The City We Need," Dr. C. B. Waller yesterday af ternoon delivered one of the most In teresting addresses that has been heard at the men's meeting of the Y. M. C. A. There was a large audience present and he held the attention, of his hearers throughout his discourse. In building "the city we need," Dr. Waller said that there are required four things for foundations: "The fear of God; a fearless pulpit and clean public press; an upright munici pal government; and a God-fearing. upright people.'' During the course of his remarks Dr. Waller expressed the opinion that the city has good police judicial departments and declared that that It is not their fault If the laws are not enforced but the fault of the peo pie. With reference to the violations of the prohibition laws. Dr. Waller said, that It is difficult for the police to get evidence to convict as the vio lators are. not foolish enough to sell to officers; and he also referred to the unwillingness of the people to testify besause It might hurt their business. Dr. Waller took up each of the four foundations necessary to the successful building of the right kind of a city and told how these foundations are made and the part each has In the building. The meeting at the Highland hotel. which was held yesterday afternoon at 5 o'clock under the auspices of the association, was one of the best at tended meetings that has yet been held held there.
