narvest vu. 000,000 bushels of wheat.
Tins is the average estimate placed
on the probable state yield by men
wno accompanied the great wheat sne
clal through the Kansas wheat blt.
These estimates are made up from re
ports of farmers and elevator men in
all sections.
Guesses on the total yield run from
60.000.000 to 80.000.000 bushels, but it
Is believed that 70.000.000 bushels is
the most conservative estimate. This
means S70.000.000 for wheat farmers, as
tho crop is being contracted for at 1
per bushel. The state will need 17.000
extra men to help harvest the crop.
As affecting this great wheat yield,
especially in regard to railway charges,
a movement that will unite a tier of
states from the. dulf of Mexico to the
Canadian border, as well as Colorado
and New Mexico, in a demand for re
duced freight rates will take form at

reads thus:
"Upon the taking effect of this act, the
Judge or Judges of the Superior Court of
each county in the state shall divide the
county into not less than three nor more
than six Jury districts, following the lints
of the voting precincts, and arranging

Clerk of each county in the state shall
make up a jury list containing all the
names of all the qualified jurors in the

According to the old law, the Jury Com

list, and Judge McCredie had the Clerk
of Court draw a jury list in accordance
with the new law, but it is a question in
the mind of Judge McCredie if a jury
