Fish for Every Family.

Prof. L. L. Dyche, state fish and
game warden, declares that if the
farmers of Kansas will follow his ad-
vice he will establish enough ponds
to give every family in the state one
good meal of fish once each week,
which would be at least $4,000, 900
worth of fish each year. He wants
the farmers to build fish ponds and
will issue a bulletin in a short time
on how to build the ponds and how
to select fish for stocking them and
how to feed the fish. He is now Wis
fting ponds which are being built and
says most of them are not properly
constructed.

Ottawa Masons to Have Temple.

At meeting of the Masonic ladge
at Ottawa, it was voted to purchase
the Zellner three-stery building at
Second and Main streets and convert
it into Masonic temple. The order
was given a 90-day option on the build

so feet back to the alley. The third

with the lungs. Start with the right

A glass of warm milk drunk at night
just before going to bed is very
soothing to the nerves, and sometimes
serves as a definite sleeping potion,
as an entirely empty stomach often
causes sleeplessness. Keeping the
feet warm in bed is another little
remedy surely open to all, for it does
not require much to know that cold
feet means that the blood is in the
head and that this must be drawn
away before sleep can come In ex-

where the health and comfort of the
aenemic woman is involved 1t is abb
solutely necessary to keep the pores
of the skin open for the nerves to be
soothed, as the greater part of the
body's breathing is done through
them. If the hot bath at night pro-
notes wakefulness, it had better be
taken in the day, but if it can be
taken without this effect, then all the
better, for in this case it will be still
another aid toward sleep. But remem-

A Famine on Teachers.

IF there should be such a shortage
in the Kansas wheat crop one year as
there has been in the crop of school
teachers in the state for the last three
or four we would all be bankrupt
Prof. w. H. Johnson of the depart
ment of high school visitation declared
recently. Teachers possessing the
Qualities of personality and education
that our school boards require are not
to be found in the state to supply the
demand. Last year 1 received $50 ap-
plications for high grade teachers and
was able to find only about 200. There
were more teachers imported from out
side the state last year than any time
in nearly ten years." According to
Prof. Johnson the condition in the
teaching profession in the secondary
should be by any means. The instruc-
tors move about once in every two
years on the average, and the condi-
ton in the high schools is very much
unsettled on that account Many leave
for better positions in other states
"Fifty-three per cent of the principals
and superintendent in the state this
year are occupying their present posi-
tons for the first time," Prof. John
son said. 'This condition, which in
terferes with high standard of work,
could be very much improved if the
boards were more careful in the se1ec-
tons and would make greater efforts
to keep good instructors. Better equip
ment and more wholesome sentiment
for education in some parts of the
state would help greatly

Latest Kansas Events.
Are -Poorfarms" No Longer.

Prosperity has become so general
IN Kansas that poorhouses have been
abandoned as charitable institutions
and converted into experiment stations
to add to the wealth of the farmers.
Last year many of the farms were
leased to individuals or were titled
by the superintendent and paid as
s1stants- When the state legislature
learned that the farms were not full
filling their original purpose bill was
enacted allowing the state agricultural
college to take over the land and con-
duct experiments in farming for the
benefit of the counties. The expert
ment stations are to replace, in a
measure, the bulletins issued by the
college. Corn is raised 100 bushels
to the acre, and the feat is accom-
pl1shed along the roadsides where the
farmers cannot help see it as they
drive to town. P. E. Crabtree and G.
G. Wheeler, professors at the college,
spend their time after March 1 travel
ing over the state, directing their en-
ployes who have charge of the work
at the station Every month the farm
ers are invited to attend meetings at
the prosperity farms and inspect the
progress of the crops. These gather
ings have developed into social at
fairs. The women attend, prepare
dinners and discuss fashions. The col
lege probably will send domestic
science lecturers TO speak at the
meetings.

WANT SAVANNAH'S

gentlemen who has been interested n

time just what the assets and liabili-
ties Of the municipality are.
