KANSAS, CORN AND BABIES.

Kansas has some reason to be proud
of its record this year in the produc-
ton Of corn. wheat and oats, and e.
pecially OF corn. The total of the three
crops is placed at more by $4,000. 900
than in any previous year in its his
tory. and obviously that is showing
to be proud Of But singularly enough
along With this proud showing the CEN
sus bureau comes forward with the de-
pressing information that the baby
crop in Kansas has fallen of In the
same year, says Manchester Union
There were $3.50 babies born In
Kansas In the fiscal year 1907, and
only 23,850 In the fiscal year 1908. Or
course the first question that presents
Itself is what the fiscal future OF
year has to do with such matter any
way. Yet 1t Is obvious that one must
start from somewhere in such compu.
tations, and perhaps the beginning and
end of the fiscal year are as good
points as any. The thought that Is
sure to suggest itself IS, were the
Kansas farmers so busy planting their
big crops Of wheat, corn and oats that
they overlooked the grayer problem
of population?

Trained Nurses Provided.

A long step In advance for the bet.
terment of the condition of inmates
in the two state asylumns at Mendoza
and Oshkosh was taken by the state
board of control when it provided for
a reorganization of the system of
ward attendance.
The new plan provides for the EN-.
of the wards In each hospital to be
charge attendants and to have charge
Of the care of those needing the pro.
fessional service. Under the new ar
rangement one-half of the wards in
each institution will be in charge OF
trained nurse, selected by the sti-
perintendents with special regard to
the needs of the unfortunates in those
wards.
Heretofore, charge attendants in all
the wards have been selected from
the regular force, chosen, of course,
with special reference to their quail
ifications, but not trained nurses in
any sense of the word. They were
than the subordinate attendants, but
without professional training. Under
the new arrangement the special
charge nurses will be chosen by the
superintendent of .le two institutions
and will be better paid than the regu
lar charge attendants.
The board Of control also provided
for substantial improvement of rondi,
tions at the tuberculosis sanatHrium
at Wales, which for some time has
been crowded to its capacity, A con,
tract was let for the building of two
shacks, bakery, an infirmary, and a
residence for the superintendent. The
contract was let to George r. Keachie
Of Madison, the lowest bidder, for
$31 $50, and the work is to be conclUd
ed within six months,

uIated BY Legislators.
TWO BILLS ARE IMPORTANT
One Proposes Appointment OF UNI
versity Secretary and Auditor

4 portant, one providing for the estab-
I l!shment of an office of secretary and

ent.
The bill providing for the office OF

sors, etc, are appointed and the sal
airy is fixed at $4,000 per year The
person appointed shall have knowl-
edge Of accounting and general bust

Another of the six measures pro
vides for a board of regents OF the

which shall consist of the state super
intcndcnt. the inspector OF the day
schools for the deaf, the inspector

nj of the state schools for those untor-
Inmates. This board of regents shall
have charge of the administration of
these schools under the direction OF
the state board of control, which shall

Another proposal which the commit

Regents Shift the Work.

The investigation of fraternlties and
sororities at the university, which was
ordered by the Legislature at its last
session, has been shifted to the fac
ulty. The Legislature ordered the
board of regents to conduct the in
ycstigation, but it is understood that
the regents at the last meeting adopt
ed resolution instructing the faculty
to conduct the investigation and re
port to the regents.
There is considerable doubt as tc
when the much-talked of inquiry viii
be started
The fraternities are attempting tc
organize a Pan-IIellenic council tc
bring their affairs into shape, so that
no disastrous results will follow the
investigation.

WHAT BECAME OF THE BUTTON
Naive Confession of Little Girl Proved
Her to Be True Daughter
of Eve.

7Ioie Fuller, the noted dancer, told
at luncheon a story about her class
of dancing children.
II gave the children a Christmas
party last year she said, and when
the pudding came on | said to them:
Il have put in this pudding coin,
a li,tle china doll and button. Who
ever gets the coin will be rich.
Woe gets the doll will be married
betUre the year is out. But whoever
gets the button will be an old maid
Well, the pudding disappeared rap
idly, and the little girls soon found
the coin and the china doll. But the
button did not turn up. No one got
the button This amazed me.
THAT night said to my favorite
little girl, as we sat alone by the fire
in my room:
81 can't understand what became
of that button. put it in the pudding
myself
"Tll tell you, the little girl con-
fessed, turning rosy with confusion. I
dot the button. But | didn't want

SYNDICATES IN GERMANY.
United States Not the Only Country
Facing This Problem.

Washington, Nov. 1.-THE ups
and downs of trusts in Germany and
the rapid increase in the number of
combines are described in a consul
ar report from Dusseldorf. They call
them "syndicates" in the Kaiser's
domain, but they seem to be apply
ing trust methods to many indus
tries. The report says:
THE Steel Works syndicate ap-
pears to remain a permanent German
institution. The Pigiron Syndicate
mas not met with the same success,
and the Lorraine Luxembourg syndi-
cate has proven failure. The heavy
metal plate manufacturers have
formed a syndicate which appears to
have improved prices. The lighter
metal plate manufacturers are at
present trying to form syndicate.
A price convention has also been
formed among wire manufacturers
drawn wire and wire nail makers.
The Pipe syndicate has had many
difficulties to contend with: a good
number of very powerful works did
not join the syndicate and it has been
obliged to fight for its very exist
ence.
The Steel Cast Goods syndicate
has been renewed both in this dis
trict and in upper Silesia. The Rivet
syndicate has been strengthened BY
a number of new powerful members
/ The International Sleeper kartell has
also been strengthened by the addi-
ton of a number of Russian works
/ The syndicate movement has also
spread to number of metal indus
tries; an International Zinc Furnace
syndicate and an International Lead
syndicate are being formed.
The timber industry has addition
al syndicates. The Match syndicate
i has been formed to safeguard tn.
match trade, particularly necessar.
at present, as the government ha'
placed heavy taxes on matches.
MANY important amalgamation
have taken place during the last l:
months. Some prominent shippin,
lines and some large banks hav,
amalgamated; one of the most i'm
portant of the year was the ANAL
gamation of a mining company an,
furnace owning concerns with ship
