The work of harvesting and curing
the forage crops will require attention

somewhat before cutting. The feed

FOR FLOOD SERVICE.
Weather Bureau in Kansas May Cover
Hioh Water in KaW

Washington, Jan 20.-Representative
Scott has secured the incorporation IN the
appropriation bill of an item which VIII
permit the establishment by the weather
bureau of a food service for the Kansas
river. The service will require the estab-
lishment of a dozen or more observation
stations along the Kansas river and its
principal tributaries. Last year the pre-
diction of the wea Their bureau as to the
height which the flood in the Mississippi
would reach in New Orleans was verified
within three-tenths of foot.
This prediction was made weeks before
this stage of water was reached. so that
the authorities had ample time 10 streng-
III the levees and increase their height
where necessary. Undoubtedly, II a sim
liar service then had been in existence
along the Kansas river there would have
been fewer lives lost in las springs flood.
while many thousands of dollars worth
of stock and other property could have
been removed 10 places of safety. The
agricultural committee has agreed TO rec
ommend the appropriation. and ii is prac-
ticaliy a foregone conclusion that II will
pass both houses and become law.
