A Paramount Necesrity.

The proportionate increase of STU
dents in the school of engineering
sof the University of Kansas is larger
than that OF any other school of the
university. The total number of stu
dents doing work in engineering Is
-3O6, far too many for the present ia
cilities. The per capita student cost
in the school of engineering is the low
est of any school in the university. A
building devoted entirely to the work
in engineering is paramount neces-
asity. The greatest need is ground floor
space for experimental laboratories and
boiler rooms. The drafting and de-
signing rooms are over-crowded with
under-classmen. If the attendance
continues to increase another year will
find the drafting room facilities entire
1y inadequate. The shop facilities are
superior to any other in Kansas and
:220 students are at work daily in them.
1t takes 175-horse power engines to
supply the necessary power. Never
rtheless, more shop and boiler room is
necessary for the students doing adj
-vanced experimental engineering. This
is the work that prepares the gradu-
ates to take head positions in large
establishments requiring men of the
highest capabilities.
Kansas is falling behind other state
institutions. Colorado has just dedi-
Gated an engineering building erected
at cost of 100000 Iowa, Wisconsin,
Missouri and Illinois all have well
equipped buildings. Kansas with her
vast fields of wheat and corn and thou
sands of head Of live stock can well
afford to be liberal with the educa
tional institution which is the pride
of the state.

VALUE OF KANSAS CROPS.
state Board of Agriculture Issues State
mcnt Showing Unprecedented Yield
OF Wheat-Less Corn.

Topeka, Kan, Dec. S.-The state
board of agriculture issued the fol-
lowing bulletin yesterday, showing
final returns of the states agricultural,
horticultural and live stock products
and their home values, together with
the number and value of live stock for
1908.
Total yield of winter and spring
wheat, 94,041 ,902 bushels, worth $751;
426,355.55. 1.-THE winter wheat yield
is greater by 3,O43,912 bushels, or 3.3
per cent, than its growers and thrash
ermen estimated at the close of har-
vest, and amounts to 93,313,912 BUSH
els, with a value of s52,O62, O61. Con-
trary to the prevailing tendency Of
later years, the area in spring wheat
has increased more than IA per cent,
making a total for the state Of $500
acres, and its average yield was far
above normal, aggregating 727,99O
bushels, valued at $685., 293.90.
This years yield is 72 per cent.
greater than that Of 1902, 4 per cent.
more than the 1901 crop and Zig per
cent. larger than in 1900.
Evidences of Hessian flies have not
entirely disappeared, but their pres
ence seemed less noticeable last fall
than in the one preceding, judging
from the infrequent reference to this
pest by correspondents. No other in
sect is mentioned.
This years corn crop from the be-
ginning has proved an enigma and the
board has not before made an approx
imation, nor in any wise predicted
or suggested as to its yield. The crop,
after the most diligent inquiry and
searching investigation, is from its
growers, huskers and weighers found
to be 100 1853, 769 bushels, from $685.
III acres and worth S57,07S, 141.67.
The area is 464,9S7 acres less, or &C
per cent, than last year, and the ag-
gregate yield is lower by 100000
bushels, or 10 per cent
The yield of oats (2S,025,729 BUSH
sls) on an increased area is less than
last year by Is per cent. and worth
sS,042, 764.
The area of Irish potatoes was larger
than in 1902 by 1860 acres, or 80 per
cent, but the diminished yield on ac-
count of floods and excessive rainfall
In the chief potato raising districts
and amounting to 5,023,O42 bushels, is
worth nearly 20 per cent. more than
last years crop, and its total value is
So, 755, 3O4.93.
Alfalfa and other grasses yielded
abundantly Of excellent hay, and live
stock seem healthy and free from dis
ease except in some scattering locali-
ties, where cholera is reported among
hogs.
The net increase in value of this
years agricultural products over that
of 1902 is $685. 53. and of live stock
sS,444,07S, or a total net increase for
the year Of s16,426,531, or "A per cent.
In two years the increase in the value
of agricultural products has been S2S,-
729, 956, and of live stock S1O,S51, ia, or
a total net increase in 19O2-19O3 of
s39, 5S1 $50.
