ly been made by the department OF
entomology OF the State University.
Early in July Prof. 5. J. Hunter and
party went into camp with full labor
atory equipment twenty-five miles
southeast OF Dodge City. where for
the past three years the department
has had under observation the culti-
yation Of large tract Of alfalfa. Ex-
periments carried on under its direc-
tion have resulted in much practical
information for the farmers.
Three years ago request was made
by the alfalfa griwers Of this region
for thorough study of the causes of
the prevalence OF the native grass
hopper in the alfalfa. After consid-
cradle investigation il was found that
the grasshoppers lzid their eggs in
the alfalfa fields late in the fall.
These were hatched The following
spring, and the young insects de-
youred the sprouting alfalfa. 1t was
recommended that the alfalfa land be
disked in the early spring as soon as
the frust had left the ground, in order
to expose the eggs 10 destruction bv
birds and climatic influences. This
year over eight hundred acres were
treated in this manner. IL resulted
not only in the destruction Of the
grasshoppers and the removal of the
native grasses which frequently
spring up among the alfalfa and
threaten to reclaim the land, but also
brought about a very material in
crease in the yield Of alfalfa. In some
places the yield WAS nearly double
that on land not disked. The ground
that was disked last year was not
disked this year and il is Of interest
to not> that the beneficial effects OF
disking last season were continued
through both crops this year. The
alfalfa seems TO grow more rapidly
and to mature earlier after having
been disked. Garden City Herald.

BEET SUGAR FACTORY
Farmer, 10 Grow 5000 Acres effects.


J. 6. Hamilton, vcie-president Of
the American Beet Sugar Company,
President OXnard and other repre-
sentatives Of the company together
with Industrial Commissioner Davis
OF the Santa Fe. have finished tour
OF the Arkansas valley made for the
purpose OF submitting proposition To
erect beet sugar factory. They
visited all the towns and held several
meetings in the country districts, ex-
planning what they required the farm
ers to do in the way Of growing sugar
beets. FROM all reports they met
with great encouragement at every
point visited and feel satisfied they
can secure the requisite acreage of
beets TO justify them in erecting Il
factory in time for run next fall
Contracts were left at each town
for the farmers to sign and as we un-
derstand it the vicinity that furnish
es the largest acreage will get the
factory, and the beets grown at other
points will be shipped to the
factory the company paving the
freight. and paying the growers the
same price that those in the vicinity
OF the factory receive.
The factory will cost upwards Of
$1,000, coo and have a capacity for
converting 750 tons OF beets into
sugar daily. s400 per ton will be
paid for beets testing l5 pr cent sugar
and 33A cents for each additional per
cent. No beet weighing over five
pounds will be accepted. The compa-
ny asks no bonus, but simply require
the farmers to grow the beets They
want guarantee that 5000 acres will
be grown annually for five years.
We have talked with great many
farmers in this vicinity and all are
very enthusiastically inclined toward
this new industry and believe 1t will
be the most profitable Of any yet in
troduced in the valley. Nearly all
OF them have been growing beets on 4
small scale for the past three years
which has convinced them that sugar
beets is the most certain crop that
can be grown.
The farmers In this vicinity should
make Il supreme effort in behalf OF
this project and plant every acre they
can take care OF properly. Several
parties are circulating among the
farmers this week presenting the con.
tracts for signatures, and they should
meet with the most fiatteiing success,
because IL il OF the greatest impor.
tance to the farmers that factory be
built the coming year. Every mar
ought to grow vt least ten acres and
many are capable OF taking care OF
twenty acres.

Honorable Mention.

Lynn Whitson, one of the bright
boys of the public school, contributed
to the Junior Journal the following,
for which he received honorable men
tion by that paper:
My hobby is gathering material
with which to build engines. At one
town where [ lived found an old in
jector and near a railroad track two
pieces of pipe and bell. At another
time [ found an old cushion that be-
longed to an engineers seat. Later
was made happy by finding water
glass and throttle behind a water
tank. Once l worked four hours for a
man at creamery and earned an old
steam gauge. An apple barrel made
a very good boiler and 1 collected
some old boards with which [ made
a tender. All these things made an
engine which will do very we'll till I
can collect material for a better one.

Emil snilIer,s Death.

The death of Emil, third son of
Joseph Miller of this city was briefly
recorded last week-it occurring on
Thursday, April 6, but a few min
utes before the HERALD went to press,
The Immediate cause of death was
spinal menengitis, following a severe
case of infammatory rheum ats m of
only weeks duration. The deceased
was born in the town of Getty, on his
fathers farm, on March 26, 1875, and
was therefore but a little more than
"a years of age, and in 1892 removed
with his parents to this city, He was
the perfect type of health-large, Wig
erous and athletic-and apparently
his chances for long life were far
above the average. He was an unus-
ually bright young man, with rare ap-
titude for business, and was really
the main reliance of his father in bust
ness matters, the latter's health not
having been good for two years or
more. He was of sunny genial ma
ture, and made friends of ali with
whom he associated. He was a men,
Der of the United Workmen, and of
the Degree of Honor, of the Acme
Hose Co., and the Firemen's Relief
Society. He was a musician of rare
talent, for number of years mem
Der of the brass band, and baritone
soloist of merit. He recently left the
band to become leader and instructor
of the High School Band, and that or
ganization teels his loss keenly.
His funeral took place on Sunday
from the family residence, the United
Workmen having charge of the fun
eral. The two brass bands united to
furnish the music for the solemn cor
tege, which extended several blocks
through the city on the way to the
funeral. There were $50 w orkmen in
the procession, and the members of
the hose company attended in body.
His remains were laid at rest in the
Bohemian cemetery, seven miles
south OF the city, and on the farm
upon which he was born. Over
seventy.tive carriages filled with sor-
rowing friends and sympathetic &C
quaintances were in line. 1t was one
OF the largest ever held in this city.

A Good Opening.

This city needs a frst-class board
ing house, in addition to those al
ready established and and doing good
business. There are several now.
but one especially adapted for lady
boarders is needed. The school
teachers find it difficult to secure suit
able and desirable boarding places.
They do not like, for obvious eas ons.
to patronize large, gene raj boarding
houses, but would give liberal sup
port to a first-class house that met
their requirements. 1t is not the idea
that it should be exclusively for them.
but SO managed and operated that
they could find such accommod atoms
as they desire.
Anyone who will fill this urgent
need will enjoy good patronage
from the very beginning.
