MAY BE SIX DAY RUN.
Abilene will Not Set Night Control q
Motorists. .wln9l

The latest plan OF the Kansas City
Star cup run next August Is to make
1t only six days. M. G. Nolan, who
drove the Pathfinder car has this
plan: GO to Dodge City, then north
of Hays and back. That would be
six days with fine schedules. The
first stop could be Emporia, 146l
miles; the next Hutchinsons about
1870; the next Dodge City, about 14Oi
the next Hays City and around By
way of Wakeeney, about 1870; thss
next Junction City, better than 15Q.
and the next to Kansas City, 1863
miles. Give us that run and the tour
will be bigger than last year With ~
SO cars. And It will be enjoyable
too. Every one Of those night stor
towns are crazy over the run ana
there would be a tremendous dem
onstration."

DICKINsoN's WHEAT.
Only z Per Cent Good According to
CObuIn.

Secretary Coburn's crop report Is
sued today says: present returns
indicate that creditable yields will BE-
realized in many localities from fields
in which the wheat appeared lifelesi
in April, and which were not plowed
up for lack of time and labor. Fol
example, in Barton, the county hav-
ing the largest acreage, the abandon
ment area was reported in April as
~ per cent, while the June estimate
is II per cent. On the other hand
Dickinson reported rs per cent
worthless in April, and SO per cent
in June"
He says the wheat to be harvested
in dickinson is only 1918 out of
1O3,O44 last fall. He gives the
condition of that remaining as SO per
cent, Of corn 76 per cent.

WHEAT SHORTAGE DOES
NOT DISCOURAGE FARMERS
Dickinson Does Business in Spite OF
One Failure.

Central Kansas has suffered one Of
the greatest wheat failures this sea-
son 1t has experienced in nearly 80
ears. The only wheat that has ma
terialized at all is in the bottoms.
The estimate of the farmers is that 1t
will yield 10 to rs bushels an acre.
A large per cent of the wheat was
plowed up. Marion and Mcpherson
counties report the largest percent
ages abandoned, amounting in Ma
rion to IS per cent of the total sown
and in Mcpherson 80 per cent. Other
counties in the Central Kansas
wheat belt" that show large losses
are: Dickinson, SS per cent, Harvey,
70 per cent, Saline 81 per cent; Rice
So per cent; Clay "a per cent; Ellis
worth 50 per cent; Sumner 40 per
cent; Ottawa As per cent and sed-
wick 4S per cent
The farmers however, to do not
feel discouraged. These counties
are in a region excellently adopted to
corn and oats and these two crops oc-
cupy most of the abandoned wheat
ground. The present outlook 10 that
the oats and corn planted will give a
larger income than the wheat had 1t
been left standing. Hence the farmer
has in sense played even.
The extreme cold winter and the
hot and windy weather in March,
which was not broken by rain,
caused the wheat failure. In April
the plant appeared dead and large
per cent was plowed up. Then came
several soaking rains. This invigor-
ated the wheat and now with favor
able weather creditable yields will
be realized from fields which looked
absolutely worthless.
The Dickinson county examplefor
Take Dickinson country for ex-
ample. The acreage wheat to be
harvested in this county will be, &C.
cording to Secretary Coburn, only
1918 acres out of the 1O3,O44
planted. w. H. Price, prosperous
farmer, had 900 acres in wheat and
replaced 200 acres In oats. On ac-
count Of lack and time and labor he
was unable to pillow up the other 100 I
acres. Now, the 100 acres left
standing he estimates will yield an
average OF Is bushels to the acre.
This, when harvested, will bring the
Iame money per acre as the oats.
o. P. Fenton, an experienced grain
lealer and farmer of Abilene said:
I have never seen such slump in
he wheat crop since "a. had over
80 acres of winter wheat planted
,pt the cold winter and dry weather
n March spoiled wheat l thought

In discussing the enforcement Of
the prohibitory law the governor call

other counties that have been "wet"
under other administrations. He con-

BLOODY BATTLE IN SYRIA
Seven Hundred Druses Reported
Slain by Turks.

Constantinople, Dec. 3.-Seven hun
dred Druses have been slain in battle
with Turkish troops at Hauran, Syria,
south of Damascus, according to dis
patches received here.
Despite the heavy slaughter the
main body of the Druses, estimated to
number 10000, is still holding out and
another fierce encounter is expected.
The present conflict is believed to
be another long chapter of outrages
growing out of religious hatred, that
the Turks have perpetrated on the
Druses, who withdrew from the Mo.
hammedan faith centuries ago.
The Druses are reported entrenched
in a mountain fastness that will make
their dislodgment difficult.
