The hot south winds that swept
over the better part Of Kansas yes.
terday, prevailed again to-day and
this morning no reports of rain had
been received at the local bureau.
Increased damage to Vegetation of

IN central Kansas, and IIiawathl in
the northwestern corner of the state
ranged from 30 to 90 degrees above,
In the shade yesterday and the pros
poets today are for a repetition of
this weather. The ground generally
is reported dry and hard and badly
in need of rain. The midsummer
weather experienced yesteaday IN
Kansas City when the thermometer
rose thirty-two degrees in seven
hours from 50 to 9l, prevails today |
with perhsps a slightly cooler
wind.

GOVERNMENT ECONOMY.
President Roosevelt Decides That
the Publication of Useless Doc
uments Must BE stopped.

President Roosevelt has called halt
on the practice of government depart
ments of printing bulky reports on all
manner of subjects. In Mr.. Roose-
velt's opinion there is altogether too
much of this sort of thing, and he be-
lieves that large part of the pub
locations is composed of matter of no
particular value to the government or
the people of the United States. By
his direction Secretary Cortelyou has
sent the following letter to the head
of every executive department
white House, Washington, D. c.
My Dear Sir: I am directed by the
president to say that he desires some
plan devised by which the present ten
dency to increase the number and size
of printed reports and documents of
all sorts may be curbed. He thinks
there is much useless matter and
large number of unnecessary and ex-
pensive illustrations included in many
of the reports and documents pub
lished; that many are issued at great
expense which accomplish no prac-
teal good, and that there is too much
public printing generally. The presi-
dent will be glad to have you give this
matter careful consideration.-G
B. Cortelyou, Secretary to the Presi-
dent"

NOVEL WATER POWER
California Specially Favored by Ma
ture in This Respect.
Excessive Grades of Streams Cause
Many Valuable Powers-EIectric-
ity Used to Discovers Flow of
Underground Waters.

The wonderful results which Cali
fornia has accomplished in the trans
mission of electricity to distances
greater than elsewhere in the world,
leads to an interest in its peculiar type
of Water-power possibilities which in
part make this great electric develop
ment possible. The secret of the eff
6ciency of the California powers lies
in the excessive grades of the noun
tain streams rather than in an UNI
usual volume of flow, the near prox-
unity of the high Sierras to the pop
ulated valleys and their quick descent
giving the streams unusual advan-
tages in this regard. As the controll-
ing factor in the planning for the
power plants is largely a question of
minimum water supply, the hydro
graphic branch of the United States
geological survey, in response to
many requests for information con-
corning this particular point, is max
ing system of low-water measure
ments of all the principal streams in
the state from Mt. Shasta south to
San Bernardino valley. The work is
under the charge of j. B. Lippincott,
resident photographer for the geolog-
ical survey. On many of these streams
continuous records have been kept on
the trunk system at points where they
issue from the mountains, but few
accurate data have been available as
to the flow on the higher portions of
the stream and it's tributaries where
the grades are particularly steep.
The method pursued during the pres
ent season rs to place one gaging
party on the trunk stream at the regu-
lar gaging station where records have
been kept, and by means of an auto
matte register obtain. record of
hourly flow at this point for period
of about week. The lower hydro
grapher also travels up and down the
trunk stream for distances of 10 and Is
miles, making measurements at num-
erous important points. At the same
time a second gaging party is making
a circuit of the upper portion of the
basin at elevations of approximately
5000 feet, gaging all the tributaries as
well as the trunk streams at these
upper stations. AS a result of these
observations comparative volumes on
each of the streams observed will be
made available.
Another feature of interest in the
work which is being carried on in
Southern California during the pres
ent summer consists of making deter
limitations of the underfow through
the gravel beds which frequently
occur in this locality. This is done
by the electric method which has been
| invented by Prof. Charles S. Slichter,
of the University of Wisconsin. Obser-
vations have been made at the Victor
Narrows, the San Gabriel Narrows and
the Narrows of the Los Angeles river,

How Beigians Utilize smoke.

In Brussels, MaIines and other Bel
gian towns novel method of not only
getting rid of smoke but turning it
to good account has recently been en-
ployed. The smoke is driven by a
yentilating fan into filter filed with
porous material, over which contin-
nous stream of petroleum, benzine, al
cohol or some liquid hydrocarbonfows.
The result is that the smoke is en-
tirely suppressed, while the filter yields
a gas of great heating power, which
can be used for domestic purposes and
for driving gas engines. The altering
material itself also becomes good
combustible during the process.

to dig potatoes AND secure the money
for the church. The procession
moved through the city, the women
marching two by two, each carrying
her own implements. A large sum was
