ON KANSAS FLOUR
ChidIow Institute of Chicago
Tests Three Samples.
ARE FOUND SUPERIOR
To Product of Minnesota Hard
Wheat Mills.

Since the recent controversy regarding
the superiority of Minnesota -four over
that made in Kansas a reporter for the
Eagle determined to make some investi-
CATION in regard to the matter. He
called upon Mr. J. e. Howard, Of the
Union mills, for some solution Of the
problem of having test made Of flour
from this state and that from Minnesota
Mr.. Howard promptly informed him Of
an institution in Chicago whose business
it was to test the -four submitted to
them to determine its comparative value
from several standpoints.
A short time after that g quantity Of
-four was purchased at different bakeries
in the city, not disclosing what 1t was
wanted for, and these samples were sent
to the ChidIow Institute Of Milling and
Baking Technology in Chicago for a
statement with the comparison between
the Kansas flour and that of Minnesota
The -four is compared with that Of
Minnesota called the Standard and placed
at 100 per cent. In order to obtain a
Minnesota standard, the Chidlow people
take a number of the best fours of Min
nesota and mix them together, and this
is the method of securing standard Of
test
In order TO be specific about the matter
two samples of flour made by the Union
mills were secured at the bakeries and
not az the mills, and sent 10 the insti-
tute. Another -four sold in the city, made
o1co
sent with the other samples. Those Of
the Union mills were the Knox AIl'
and the Peerless Princess" two brands
on the market at the stores in the city.
This -four was all tested by the Mime
sofa standard, and the following is the
report:
No. 1926 is sample of Knox All" -four
No. 1927 is sample Of flour made in
Kansas, but not in Wichita
No. 1923 is sample Of Peerless Prin-

HIGH SCHOOL--EL DORADO
Football Teams Contest Here Tomor-
row Afternoon,

A hotly contested game of football will
be played here tomorrow afternoon. The
Ell Dorado and Wichita High school
teams will meet on gridiron at Thirteenth
street and Topeka avenue. The game will
be called at 2:30 and then each team will
buck the others line for all there Is In It.
Last year the Wichita team beat Ell
Dorado in a game played at Ell Dorado.
This year the boys think they can do it
again The Wichita team is proving to
be exceptionally strong this year. The
addition of several new men has added
considerable strength 1t will be a fiercely
fought battle for the victory.
During their stay here the Ell Dorado
boys will be entertained by the Wichita

High school will give reception at the
home of Mr.. Nose johnson for the Ell
Dorado team.

The brands from which samples were
sent to the institute are on sale in the
city and throughout the state. The
names were not mentioned to the insti-
tute people, and as far as they are con-
cerned they were not aware as to where
the -four was made.
The report of the experts on Kansas
-four as compared with that OF Minnesota
spring wheat -four practically settles the
matter of the -four controversy. Kansas
Will not take a back step in the flour
business, and in order for the Minnesota
people to keep up with the procession it
will be necessary for them to use Kansas
hard wheat for their -four.
The Union mill people, while compare
lively new in the milling business, have
fully demonstrated by the test that their
fours are among those Of the best Of the
United States. Mr.. Howard has worked
to this end and has evidently succeeded

being at the Auditorium will be pleasing
to the people of Wichita
Since Chester l. Long spoke in Wichita
he has reached more prominent place
before the eyes of the public than has
been accorded the average congressman.
yet for all of that he is just as loyal to
Kansas and the Seventh district as any
man can be.
Mr.. Long is thinker. He thoroughly
understands the situation Of the present
year. He knows the policy of the admin
istration and has a splendid method of
telling his audience about it.
He has kept thoroughly posted in re-
gard to all affairs which interest nation
and particularly those which interest the
people Of Kansas.
Mr.. Flynn, while he is from Oklahoma,
is in touch with the administration and
its affairs. He has never been before a
Wichita audience and many Wichitans
wall be glad OF an opportunity of hearing
and meeting the champion Of the Okla
hona people.
No speakers who have been in the city
will receive more cordial welcome than
will Mr.. Long and Mr.. Flynn. The people
of this city will greet them at the Audi
torium. The old soldiers organization will
participate in the meeting and citizens
who do not belong to organizations Of
any kind will be there as well.
That the meeting will be a splendid
one there can be no doubt. The men are
well informed. splendid speakers, appre-
cate the attention of their audiences and
understand thoroughly what they will
speak of during the evening.

DIVIDING CITY
INTO DISTRICTS
Measure That Has Been introduced
in Councils by Select Council
man Clemons-Its Purpose.

"An ordinance providing for the di-
vision of the city into districts for
the appropr.ating of funds for street
repairs and imposing extra duties upon
the street commissioner"
How familiar these words are to the
members of the city councils. They
form the title to an ordinance which
is introduced nearly every year with
persistent regularity and which is an
nually killed or allowed to die a peace
full death.
Select Councilman Clemons intro
duced the measure on Thursday night.
1t differs very slightly from the one
introduced last year by Councilman
Chlttenden. 1t provides for the crea-
ton OF our districts, as follows:
First district-Seventh, Ninth, Tenth,
Thirteenth, Sixteenth and Seventeenth
wards.
Second district-Fourth. Fifth, Sixth
Fourteenth, Fifteenth and Eighteenth
wards.
Third district-First, Second, Third
and Twenty-first wards.
Fourth district-Eighth, Eleventh,
Twelfth, Nineteenth and Twentieth
wards.
The ordinance provides that all
money for street repairs shall be APP
propriated. not by wards, as at pres
ent. but by districts, and shall be ex-
pended under the direction of the
street commissioner. The purpose of
the ordinance is. of course, to do
away with the evils of the present
system of permitting the councilmen
to expend the appropriations for
street repairs.
Under the second class city law
the system of ward appropriations is
done away with and the money for
the Improvement of the public high
ways is expended under the supervis-
ion of the chief of the bureau of
strets and highways, an official COR
responding to the street commissioner
of third class city.
