gener and James W. Orr are engaged

NO FRILIs ON TAFT.

In one Of his letters home Con
gresham Victor Murdoch says that
President Taft isn't very strong on
frills. He relates this on the presi-
dent:
zone Of the most notable things
in the attitude Of President Taft in
the White House has been his free
dom from the starch and frills OF
form. Almost all his life he has
been thrown in the midst Of circles
that put much stock In the heavy
conventionalities. But Taft was
born with vaccination mark against
that sort OF thing, and he never had
the disease, and he never will. He
is such a remarkable visitor that he
has trouble keeping within his visit
ing hours at the White House. be-
cause no one who wants to talk Is
ever turned away without having his
say. And Taft dearly loves josh.
The other day at garden party at
the White House, I saw congress-
man clad in long black frock coat
walk up to the president and shake
hands. It was about gS in the shade,
and the president laughed, poked his
thumb in the direction Of the coat
and said: you must feel nice and
coy in that coat! The congressman
who was pouring off water like q
geyser, told the president that ne
was as cool as cucumber and that
besides, he thought the president was
Jealous Of the fit."

KOSHER KITCHEN IN SCHOOL
In the Jewish District Of New York
Food 10 Especially Prepared
for Pupils.

Six hundred and thirty Jewish chill
dren Of New York had luncheon the
other day for the small sum Of three
cents each at the opening of the new
kosher kitchen just installed In public
school No. 90. This is the third large
school in the city to operate its own
lunch room.
The idea Is TO determine whether
children IN New York elementary
schools suffer from malnutrition and
whether serving lunch at cost price In
the school buildings will tend to raise
the standard Of scholarship in the
Jewish district, the cooking IL done
according to kosher methods.
Before school each morning brass
checks good for one full meal are
sold in the school yard. At nine
o'clock word IL sent to the cook as to
the number Of luncheons that will be
required at noon. This does away
with all waste Of food. The meals
are served by the children and they
do the clearing up and the dish wash
ing under supervision.
Many Of the children come from
homes where the mothers work out
BY the day and there Is no one to
prepare the luncheon should they go
home for II. The medical examination
shows that the children who have par
taken Of the lunches are in far bet
ter physical condition and are doing
better school work than those who
have done without.

FROM 70 no zoo MILLIONS.

The Kansas wheat yield usually
runs about seventy million bushels
although this year our total yield
may not reach sixty million bushels.
If Kansas farmers would change
their average to thirty bushels per
acre the annual yield would exceed
two hundred million bushels. In
a dozen counties in eastern Kansas
this year yields OF over forty bushels
are reported. What is that should
become the average? Why not? The
Wheat Special" that the Rock Is
land is to run over its lines for the
Kansas Agricultural College from
July 10 to July 20, Is for the pur-
pose Of showing how the right kind
of soil culture and the right kind
OF seed will raise the state yield.
Why not change the figures and make
the average thirty-one bushels In
stead Of thirteen?
The wheat Special" will carry
one exhibit car and four lecture cars,
one for children, one for women and
two for men. 1t will be great
Wheat School on Wheels" Twenty
thousand people should hear the lee
lures. The exhibit car will not be
open until the lectures are over. Be
on time. See posters.

sheep industry is wiped out, as 1t

He shipped a trainload Of sheep TO

whom they were eOndgned sold them
at the regular market price. They
didn't bring enough money to pay
