June 16.—The peni- tentiary binding twine has been on the market here in competion with the trust twine just a week, and there isa big demand for it among the farmers since they have learned it can be purchased direct from the dealers. About 400,000 pounds of twine will be used by the farmers of Saline county alone, and it is esti- mated that the entering of the state into competition with the trust has saved the farmers of this county about $20,000. The state twine has given good satisfaction where it has been tried, but it is claimed that it does not run as many feet to the pound as the trust twine. Another Philippine Surrender.
