Studying chinch Bug Disease.

Topeka.-The state university has
issued the following notice:
ITO Kansas farmers: The profess
sors of the University of Kansas who
have the chinch bug investigation in
hand are very DESTROYS of obtaining
the names and addresses of farmers
on whose places outbreaks of the white
fungus disease of chinch bugs occur
spontaneously. Farmers who have
not infected their fields with the fun
gus-disease sent out by the university
are requested to watch their fields, es-
pecially after a period of rainy or
damp weather. If whitened bodies of
chinch bugs are found, especially un-
der sticks, clods, deal leaves, ETC.. a
postal should be sent to the Univer-
sity at Lawrence, stating the name oil
the farmer and his postoffice. Those
in charge of the investigation are
anxious to visit farms on which the
chinch bug disease arises sponatne-
ously. in order to study the local con
ditions."

Ask Uniform surety Bonds.

Wichita.-The county treasurers of
Kansas will ask the legislature to
pass a law giving uniform system
of surety bonds that are required by
law to guarantee the safe conduct of
the county treasurer's business. This
was decided at their meeting here.
At present the bond is not fixed by
law, but by the county commission
ers. The treasurers believe the state
should fix the amount and the county
commissioners should pay the fee to
the surety company. The next place
of meeting is Garden City, Kan. Of
ficers elected for the ensuing year:
President, John Ryan, of Columbus,
Cherokee county; vice president, o.
w. Jones, Wichita, Sedgwick county;
secretary, NJ. ]. Williams, of indie
pendence, Montgomery county; treas
urer, L. L. Marshall of Stockton,

When Lord Campbell published his
Lives of the Lord Chancellors" it was
wittily exclaimed that he had added a
new terror to death" The chantecler
hat, it seems. has added a new terror
to life. At Newton. Mass. the other
day two young people had a narrow es-
cape from drowning on account of the
capsizing of their canoe. The tele-
graphed account says: The upset was
caused by gust of wind striking the
new chantecler hat which adorned
Miss Larkin's head. The wide rim
acted like a sail" 1t was the wide
rim of the hat that did it-not the
ornamental bird. Miss Larkin's peril
would ave been equally great Ii in
stead of a rooster she had worn a
duck.

At the left a rose colored turban
shows a cleverly wrought brim in
which a long strip of braid edged with
folds of maline does double service. 1t
covers the brim and ornaments it at
the same time. A ribbon plume made
of series of loops is of rose-colOred
satin ribbon. A silver ornament fin
ishes the trim. This is one of the
prettiest models shown in turbans.
At the right a smart street hat is
made of satin braid and has the edge
of the brim finished with shirred ma

OLD oRIsT MILLS.
KANS.

The establishment of a grist mill
was q very important matter to the
early settlers OF America. 1t was OF
little use to grow grain unless 1t could
be ground and made suitable for food.
and n settlement without a grist mill
was at serious disadvantage, the
more especially because the roads.
where any existed, were not Of the
best. Not many OF the oldest OF the
grist mills remain. Here in New Eng
land. as elsewhere. they were placed
in the beginning upon small streams
which could be damned without resort
to the engineering methods Of today.
says Manchester Union. AS a conse-
quence most of them were abandoned
as population increased and the re-
sources OF the communities made 1t
possible to erect mills on larger and
more reliable streams. Then, too. In
these later years the old-fashioned
country grist mill has disappeared al
most altogether. Last Saturday one OF
the historic landmarks Of New Jersey,
the old grist mill at Mount Holly. was
destroyed by fire. 1t dated from 1928
and its loss is, of course. irreparable.
1t appears, however, that New England
could claim precedence of New Jer-
sey, even before the Mount Holly grist
mill was burned. The Providence Jour
nal says that there is one at New
London. Conn, which was built as
early as 1850, and is of especial his
toric interest because it was the prop
erty of Gov. John Winthrop, Jr.
