Threshlng About Completed.

Cottonwood Falls.-Farmers in this
county who raised kaffir corn and cane
last Year and are now just completing
he work of threshing it, have found
out what an appetite the little English
;parrow and his numerous feathered
brethren really have. Practically
none of the crop was threshed last fall
md very little was headed or put un-
der cover. All winter long the birds
had free run of it, and many of the
farmers relate when they went to
thresh the crop a few weeks ago that
on the top and outside of every shock
where the kaffir corn heads were ex-
posed, the seed was picked off as
clean as if it had been run through
a threshing machine.

Prospects Good for Fruit Crop.

Cottonwood Falls. The prospects of
a big fruit crop in Chase county this
year are very good. Peach trees are
now in full bloom and reports from
different sections of the country say
the trees are well loaded with bios
sons Apple trees are just beginning
to blossom but will all be out In a
few more days. The only thing now
that is likely to stand In the way Of a
good fruit crop Is a cold snap or killing
frost which may possibly occur In the
course OF the next few weeks.

PLANNING NEW COURSES.
Eight Hours or Experimental Work TO
Be Given Each Week.

Manhattan. The regents Of the
Kansas Agricultural college, In session
this week, adopted some courses OF
study that will mark an epoch in the
history Of agricultural colleges. Forty
years ago agricultural colleges could
find little organized data for study
and courses have been developed as
scientific knowledge Of agriculture
and Industrial arts has been developed.
The new course OF the Kansas Agri-
cultural college will stand in the front
rank now with agriculture, shop prac-
tice and cooking and sewing from the
first week of the six-year course to
the last. Heretofore young men com
ing from the country school had to
wait one or two years before getting
any instruction in agriculture or any
training in carpentry and blacksmith
ing and the girls had to wait as long
before getting into classes in cooking
and sewing.
The new courses have three marked
features Of Improvement; instruction
in agriculture and shop work and do
nestle science from the first to the
last month Of the six-year course;
closer correlation with the courses in
the county and city high schools OF
the state and electives'in the junior and
senior years that will give greater OPP
portunity for preparation for teaching
agriculture or manual training or
home economics in high school or cob
lege or for training for research and
investigation work In experiment sta
tions or in government service.
From the beginning the young men
will have eight hours each week which
will be equally divided between shop
practice and agricultural laboratory
work and this will include corn anu
stock judging, dairy work, poultry
care, budding and grating trees, plant
propagation and the young women will
have one year Of sewing and one year
of cooking before taking up much
theoretical or scientific study Of foods
and their preparation. Graduates Of
high schools will be able to get credit
for the academic work they have done.
This will encourage the introduction
into the high schools of agriculture,
manual training and home economics.
Many students will be encouraged to
begin at the opening of the junior
year such lines of special study as will
best fit them to do certain work un-
usually well, being fitted to become
practical psychologists, chemists, soil
physicists, plant breeders, entomolo-
gists, practical, mechanical, electrical,
civil or highway engineers and archi-
tects, either keeping in the line of re-
search work of being fitted to teach.
The new catalogue with revised
courses will be ready for distribution
early in May.

Good Work In Denmark.

Under legislation enacted In 1905
the Danish government pays three
fourths of the expenses Of all poor
persons who desire to be treated In
tuberculosis sanatoria. When the hos
pitals under construction are CON-
pleted Denmark will have one bed in
tuberculosis hospitals or sanatoria for
every 1900 inhabitants, a fact which
will mean that the length of treat
ment can be considerably extended.
In the United States there is one bed
for every 4,500 inhabitants.

Fire epidemic" In Wichita.

Wichita Fourteen fire runs is the
record Of the Wichita fire department
in twelve hours. The department has
never made so many runs in so short
a time. None Of the fire proved disas-

people burning leaves and rubbish
and not putting out the fires, which
were scattered by the unusually high
wind. Several Of the horses were com
pletely exhausted and auto trucks
were pressed into service to haul the
hose.
