KANSAS NEWS OF RECENT DATE.

State Agricultural College Items.
Live stock judging, which is consid-
cred such an important part of the
course at the agricultural college of
other states, will be introduced at the
Kansas agricultural college, the board
of regents having made ample provi-
sion therefor in next years short
course.
The last legislature appropriated So
600 for the purchase of thoroughbred
cattle for the college, and Regent F..
ID. Coburn, with Prof. Cottrell, have
been designated by the board to make
the selections and purchases. The in
tention is to secure trio of typical,
registered cattle of ten standard
breeds, viz: Shorthorn, Hereford,
Aberdeen-Angus, Galloway, Red
Polled, Polled Durham, Ayrshire,
Guernsey, Holstein and Jersey. Cat
tie of some of these breeds are al
ready in hand, either from purchase
or by donation. Several prominent
md spirited breeders have contributed
cattle, and more will do so; while
swine raisers have many of them pre-
scented the college with choice thor
oughbred pigs. The institution is
woefully deficient in horse stock, and
has no sheep whatever, but it is hoped
these deficiencies may now be of short
duration.
The farm department much desires
to have, as It beginning, at least trio
of Angora goats, but has no means for
their purchase now. This is an oppor-
tunity for some of the enterprising
goat breeders to advertise their fa-
vorites by seeing that the farm is sup
piled with few of the best.
There is prospect that the Kansas
agricultural college will, hereafter, be
much more nearly what it's name i'm
plies, an 'agriculturar' college, than
ever before, and this is entirely prop
er in a state whose revenues so large
ly come from agriculture and live
stock husbandry as do those of Kan
6as.
The matter of seed breeding is one
which has not, as yet. been given at
Manhattan anything like the 1mpor-
lance its merits demands, but it is like
~ the present board of regents will
see to its active promotion along
really practical and helpful lines, as
is being done in states such as Hi
nois, Minnesota and Iowa.
