Hays Branch Experiment Station Notes

Several students at the State Agri-
cultural college will work at the Hays
Experiment Station during the sum
mer vacation.
The alfalfa sowed April 25th at the
HAYS Experiment Station is coming
up nicely though the weeds will need
to be moved off several times this
year.
The culLivators are kept busy 10
the corn fields at the Hays Expert
ment Station. -Four new machines of
different patterns are secured this
year for trial. Most of the corn is do
Ing fine and aside, from the cultural
ing tested and an lear to row" trial is
being made.
Oats, barley and winter wheat are
all heading out short at the HAYS Ex-
pertinent Station. Emmerand spring
wheat have not yet headed. Flax is
In bloom and bromis inermis is head
ing. Three plats Of broom corn in
"tlme of seeding" experiment have
been planted, while the trial of varie-
ty seeding will soon be planted.
The potatoes at the Hays Expert
ment Station show a fine stand.
Spraying is now being done, Bordeaux
mixture being used. This is made of
q pounds of lime, 3 pounds of copper
sulphate, and pound of paris green
dissolved in % gallons of water. 1t is
both poison for the Colorado potato
beetle and check to blight that. may
be attacking the plants. Irrigation
experiments and seed-bed prepare
tion tests are in progress with both
home grown and northern seed. Total
area planted is II A.
The sugar beets planted at the
Hays Experiment Station are a good
stand and about large enough for
thinning This operation requires
considerable work, the labor costing
about 5000 per acre. Subsoiling VS..
ten-inch blowing VS.. crop. One two
acre plat was seeded with original
observation-disclosures, imported seed
from Europe, and another two acre
plat was planted with the same varie-

The kaffircorn is nearly all planted

Kansas City Markets.

Stock Yards. Kansas City, Mo, Tues
day, June 5th, 1906.
Two things are contributing to-
wards reduced cattle supplies in the
last ten days, the natural shrinkage
in the volume of marketable stuff in
cident to the season, and the violent
agitation concerning the unsanitary
condition of various packing houses.
Prices declined to Is cents last week
on killing stuff because of the falling
off in the consuming demand, but
markets yesterday and today are
showing some improvement account
of the small run this week. Only
5000 cattle are here today, several
thousand head short of a normal run
for Tuesday. Commission men have
been advising shippers to hold back
for short time till the attack on the
packers settles down a little, but at
the same time all but the best grades
of beef cattle will suffer from compe-
tition with grassers If held back more
than few weeks. The we'll known
fact that visitors are always welcome
at the packing houses, in fact strang-
ers are urged to visit the plants and
view the operations therein, offsets
in measure some of the rabid state
msnts being circulated against pack
ing house methods. The beef steers
today are selling strong to 10 cents
higher than the close of last week.

you wrap your own garment about
you. you will find so many rents that
you will be glad to keep still about
your neighborS. You have more than
you can do to manage your own shady
deals. The thing for you to do is to
keep your mouth shut and saw wood.
You have no time to run around and
talk about your neighbor. Your time
will be all taken up if you attend
strictly to your own business and keep
your defects from the eyes of the
world. You keep on talking, and in a
few months nobody will believe any
thing you say and you will become a
byword with the neighbors. There is
nothing so much despised in any town
as the professional gossiper. Don't

FIaa Day.

The following tribute to the flag
and official proclamation by Governor
Hoch is sufficient to remind us of the
day and the patriotic. devotion of
every American heart ought to move
us TO a full compliance with the gov
ernor's request.
The beautiful and patriotic custom
of recognizing June IA as the birthday
of the American flag Is becoming
more and more general. Our flag
represents all that is good in human
government. 1t typifies always hui
man equality. liberty and justice. To
the oppressed of all lands it affords
the Inspiration of hope; to the Ameri-
can at home and abroad the sight of
it increases the heart beat and stirs
patriotic emotions. The children
cannot too often be taught it's signifi-
canoe and their young hearts led to
love it,
On this anniversary let 1T float from
public buildings and private resi-
denceS alike. Let it be displayed in
church and school, for it is the en-
blem alike of civil and religious liber-
ty.
In testimony whereof 1 have here
unto subscribed my name and caused
to be affixed the great seal of the
state of Kansas. Done at the state
capitol in the city of Topeka, this
22nd day of May, A. D., 1906.

The Station will have In 1853 acres OF
this crop this season. This acreage
includes rotation, ~eed-bed prepare
tion trials. and variety tests A part
OF this is listed. though most of it
was planted with an ordinary corn
planter using kaffircorn plats, with
two discs from Il Superior drill so ar
ranged in front of each planter rum
ner as to open furrow inches deep
and sufficiently wide for the PLANTER
wheel to run in This is quite an ad-
vantage because the seed gets down
to moisture, the row is cleared of any
small weeds that may have germinat-
ed since the land was plowed. the
seed being planted in the furrow, the
weeds are more easily eradicated by
cultivation, and the roots are deeper,
thus the stalk snands the winds bet
ter.
Hays Experiment Station is being
harvested and nearly all the fields are
making good yield. The irrigated
plats have not been hauled in. though
1t is evident that irrigation has in
creased the yield considerably As it
is the intention to feed part of the
first cutting to work horses, along
with praire hay and grain, the alfalfa
is put into the barn loose instead of
being baled in the field as was done
last year. After the alfalfa is well
wilteo in the swath, it is raked in
the windrow with side-delivery rake
to cure. When well cured, 1T is load
ed on the wagon from the windrOw
with a Deere hay loader, and upon
arrival at the barn, the hay is elevat-
ed to the lofts with rope sings; four
slingloads being required to unload a
large wagon load.

1t is not too late for the Republic
cans of Kansas to break with the rail
roads and still elect their state ticket.
The main battle is yet to be fought
that of nominating and electing men
to the legislature who will work in
the interest of the people. Joseph L.
Bristow sizes the proposition up
about right in the following:
by far the most important thing
now before the Republicans of Kan
sas is the selection of the right kind
of men for the legislature. There are
yet over ninety members to nominate
and if the right kind of men are sent
to the legislature the interests of the
people can be protected. 1t is true
that railroad combine ran the late
state convention, but Governor Hoch
is in sympathy with the people and
heartily supports any legislative
measure in their interest Instead
of complaining about the state con-
venJion let every Republican who be-
lieves in square deal for the people,
get to work and see that true repre-
sentative of the people is sent to the
legislature where the laws are made.
My elderly lady friend, don't you
think you are talking altogether too
much about the affairs of your neigh
bors' l notice that nothing comes
up in which you do not take out a
stack of chips. Don't you know that
all the people in the town are ssonto''
you? You are fast getting the name
OF professional gossiper. The af-
fairs Of your neighbors need not con-
Germ you very much. You have had
troubles of your own before now.
You know that 1 could go back few
years and relate story that would
rest very sweetly under the tongues
OF the new generation of scandal
mongers in the old town, don't yous
But then, will not do it, 1 think
you have shot off prematurely. When
