Provident Association and tuberculosis
Camp Appropriation I'm Balance.

That $500 appropriation for the
tuberculosis camp and Provident as
sociation-$3, 500 for the former ana
IS, 600 for the latter-is today hanging in
the balance. Commissioner Frank
Simms has smeared himself with war
paint and declared hostilities against
the appropriation. Opposed to him Is
Ed O'Neil. Sitting quietly at one end
of the table is James Sinner whose
vote will decide a big row that started
today in the commissioners court.
Sinner is as noncommittai as tha
Sphinx. He contents himself by pay
ing strict attention to the arguments,
occasionally asks a question and ad-
nits that he is still open to convic-
tions. Guy T. Justus visited the board
in behalf Of the campaign to enlist
county aid. Just at this time it can
hardly be said that Justus changed any
votes. For the first time in many
weeks the board is apparently in u
hopeless tangle as to what to do with
the peoples money.
That inevitable increase of one mill
in the county tax levy is still staring
the board in the face. The generous
use of several boxes of the countys
very best pencils has failed to make
any decisive reductions in the 65 per
cent increase in county taxes. All
three members are hunting loop holes.
The trouble has been in deciding on
any particular hole through which the
board will crawl.

SUES A DRUGGIST.
Prescription Compounded by Unregis-
tered Pharmacist Almost Fatal.

For a mistake in a prescription filled
two years ago at the Rex Pharmacy,
1901 Kansas avenue, Arthur DOran of
1901 Kansas avenue Thursday evening
fled suit in the district court against
Charles w. Kohl and VIE for S3,500
damages. DOran's suit was filed less
than two hours before the statute of
Limitation became operative.
On August 10, 1903, DOran. who is
q carpenter. went to the Rex pharmacy
where he asked Carl Sedan, a clerk,
TO fill a prescription. The ingredients
which Sedan used are said to have
been other than those called for in
the prescription. Shorty after taking
a dose of the medicine, Doran became
sick and for several hourE was almost
totally paralyzed. Late his eyesight
became affected and now the plaintiff
alleges that his nervous system has
been wrecked.
Sedan. VINO filled the prescription,
was not a registered pharmacist. Re
Gently the young man was arrested on
q complaint sworn to by the state
pharmaceutical board and was fined in
the court of Topeka. Now Doran has
brought a civil action against the own
ers of the store for the payment of
samages for his mental ar physical

START WITH CARNIVAL.
White Way to Be Dedicated on
September IL.

There will be something doing" in
Topeka Monday, September 11-that IS
if the white way is completed.
At an executive committee meeting
OF the Semicentennial held this noon at
the Commercial club it was decided 10
hold an old fashioned rousing carnival
on that day in celebration of the turn
ing on for the first time of the blaze
Of light along Kansas.
This means that Kansas avenue viii
be packed at night and that confetti
throwing will be the order of the occa-
sion. It means also that great crowd
will be drawn from the country and
outlying districts as a carnival will al
ways bring the people.
w. o. Rigby will appoint committee
to look after this feature OF the Kan
sas Semicentennial entertainment.
1t was decided to give contract to
an out-of-town firm for the uniform
decorating of the business section OF
the city for the Semicentennial, and the
merchants will be urged to decorate as
they have never decorated before.
J. Z. Spalding reported that C. E.
Graham. who is out working in the in
terests of the celebration, has sent
word that Arkansas City and Chanute
will begin contests Immediately for Sc
lecting pretty girls for the parade.

executive of the government had
nothing left to do but to dissolve the
Standard Oil company. Who can tell
the steel corporation or any other
corporation what is reasonable for it
to do"
Asked what could be done, Mr..
Perkins said everybody was in maze
on the subject. I'VE think business
should be taken out of politics and
there should be law on the statue
books that lawyers could point to and
say that is what you can do and that
is what you cannot do. Even if we
had uniform incorporation laws" Mr.
Perkins continued, II believe it
would be necessary to have a place to
report at Washington the business of
concerns doing an interstate business
and that publication of their business
should be made here. This is a great
question and we are meeting with
new conditions every day."

Three Minutes Between the Country
and Financial Ruin.

Washington, Aug. 11-Geo w. Per
kins testified before the steel trust in
vestigating committee today that when
Judge Gary and Mr.. Frick went to see
President Roosevelt about the Tennes-
see Coal and Iron deal they were urged
to send information as to what would
be done before 10 O'Clock the next
morning in order to save the situation
before the stock exchange opened.
Il got the White House on the long
distance at o'clock in the morning,
said Mr.. Perkins, ito find out the
presidents view of this matter. Just
rived at the White House. I had the
wire at a quarter to 10 when Mr.. Gary
came to the phone and said he would
let me know in a few minutes At {
minutes to 10 he told me that the pres
ident said he had no right to interfere
and that he and Mr.. Frick were willing
to put the deal through. At minutes
to 10 I was able to give this informa-
ton that saved the day. 1t was that
close to the crash.
Representative Bartlett reviewed
what Mr.. Perkins had said yesterday
about inadequacy of the trust laws. In
of the supreme court in the Standard
Oil and the tobacco case a menace to
the Steel corporation or other corpora
tions who have not violated the law?"
I'VE business men believe" Mr..
Perkins answered, that the supreme

carried out in the light of reason
that it must be just and fair"
That is, not to monopolize,' sug-

The comparative value of Turkey
Red and Kofod for bread-makine
purposes show distinctly that Turkey
Red is far superior.
The baker desires flour which viii
absorb the maximum quantity of va
ter and produce the maximum volume
of loaf the flour produced from Tur-
key will give MIN this. The consumer
desires the largest loaf containing the
maximum percentage of food value ;
the -four produced from Turkey Red
will give him this. The miller de-
sires variety of wheat which pro-
duced the higest yield of flour. which
he can readily sell to the baker.
Turkey will do this.
From all conclusions obtained from
astudy ofthe results Of this investiga-
ton. it would seem that the millers
Of this section of the state are unjus-
tilted in the claim that the harvester
affects the value Of the wheat pro-
duced. Il may be. and il isquite pro-
bable, that there is some cause for
complaint, but it is distinctly not
against the method Of harvesting but
against the variety Of wheat grown.
The Kofod variety Of wheat is grown
largely in ire section where the com
plant is loudest. The remedy OBJ
viously is to grow Turkey wheat,
which yields better, produces better
yield Of -four which is richer in pro-
tein and which absorbs the greater
amount of water and which makes a
loaf Of greater volume.

Does the Manner Of Harvesting Affect
Quality Of GRANT

With the advent Of the combined
harvester, and with Idaho Nationa
Harvester, which is nothing but q
harvester, in that it is not a combina-
ton of either a binder and a threshel
or a header and a thresher, there
has arisen a tendency on the part OF
millers and grain buyers in some sec
tons to discriminate against the man
who harvests with the improved and
cheaper methods. So serious did
this discrimination become in Utah
that the farmers appealed to the
agricultural college of that state.
The department carried on series
of extended experiments to determine
whether or not there was any real
basis for this attitude. It was so ser
ious that it threatened to retard de-
velopment in many agricultural sec
tons of the west. If the producer
could not sell in competition with
wheat harvested with headers and
binders he must of necessity 60 out
of business in those sections where
wheat yields do not average above
ten or fifteen bushels per acre.
Herewith is published extracts
from Bulletin No. 115, issued in
December. 1910. by the Utah Agri-
cultural College giving the results of
these experiments:
The extension of the dry-farming
afesaia Utah s.AEs- and the brigiRg 81 many

has in recent years, caused much
improvement in the use Of farm ma
chinery. One great improvement has
been the adoption Of the Combined
Harvester, which cuts, threshes and
sacks the grain in one operation in
the field at minimum of cost. This
has been an important factor in the
success of the dry-farming move
ment.
Recently the millers Of certain
sections of Utah have made the
claim that the cutting Of the grain
with the Combined Harvester renders

it unit for milling purposes. The
claim of the millers is that the wheat
must be stacked before harvesting in
order that it may undergo the sweat
ing process before threshing. This
sweating process, according to their
conception, is for the purpose of
causing the grain to become hard.
Hard grain, they claim, makes a
better grade of -four. How the sweat
ing process hardens the grain is not
entirely clear. The millers holding
this conception, of course, discrimi-
mated against the wheat cut with the
harvester by offering lower price,
which threatened to seriously retard
the growth of the dry-farming move
ment. The farmers appealed to the
experiment station for help and as a
result the present investigation was
undertaken.
Through the suggestion of Direc-
tor Merrill of the extension depart
ment, who brought the question to
the attention of the authors, Grace
Brothers of Nephi, Utah, very kind
ly furnished US with the samples of
wheat used in the investigation.
Grace Brothers were able to furnish
US with three samples of Turkey
and three samples of Kofod. One
sample Of each variety was cut in
1909 with the Combined Harvester.
One sample of each variety was cut
With the Combined Hervester in
1910; while one sample of each
Tariety was cut with the binder in
.910 and stacked for six weeks be-
ore threshing. The wheat cut with
ne binder was cut from the same
ield as that cut with the harvester.
Ne thus were able to secure two
amples of each variety cut with the
harvester, one cut in 1909 and one ;
ut in 1910; and sample Of each
-arlety cut frem the same field with
he-binder and stacked before thresh- (
