SAVING THE CORN X 0
Hon. Geo. B. Ellis, Editor GissourI
Farmer and Breeder. Gives ths
Following Valuable ADVICE.

When our and was new It wa full OF
grass roots and other vegetable matter
and consequently was more open and
porous and would hold more water In a
rainy season without injury to crops. and
would hold more water to feed the cropr
during a drouth. But now our land has
been cultivated so loag and so many
crops taken off withour restoring the
vegetable matter that the soil is more
compact, run-to-gether as we say, and as
every farmer knows il takes less rain to
injure the crop than it did OH the new
land, and It will not stand a drouth as
we'll because the water evaporates faster
aud the baked condition of the soil shuts
out the air which is just as essential as
the water.
Much has been said recently about
what eau be done to save the corn from
the present drouth if it continues. For.
tunate is the farmer who started in last
spring to prepare for the drouth by disk
ing his land before breaking and work
ing it into a good seed bed, Corn plant
ed on q we'll prepared seed bed and given
good cultivation needs very little rain in
May and June. 1t needs the most water
from about the time it begins to tassel
until it natures. Farmers shonld know
that, during the hot dry days when the
corn is small as it now is, from land that
has not been we'll cultivated the evapor.
atien Of soil moisture Is much greater
than the nioun used by the plant. On
land properly cultivated this evapora-
ton is prevented and the water is saved
for the use of the crop. The corn which
has been poorly cultivated up to this
time is i'll immediate danger and will not
be able to stand the drouth very much
longer. In any event there is now but
one thing to do and that is to keep right
on cultivating. Cultivate shallow. Gull
tivate often. Cultivate with a small
shovel cultivator, a drag or harrow, any
thing that will give a surface of about
two inches Of fine pulverized soil. Cul.
tivatc after every rain to break up the
crust and prevent evaporation. Guilt.
vate every ten days whether it rains or
not up to the time the corr is in silk.
This may seem like a great deal of work
but it is the price of g good corn crop.
The man who has his land in good con-
dition now and who will keep up this dry
land farming method will get corr
whether it rains or not, but he will get
more corn than the other fellow ii it
rains.

QUARANTINE FOR PELLAGRA.
DR.. Cr-umbine Establishes One by Use
of Screens.

Dr. Crumbine, secretary of the state
board of health, has just returned
from Cherryvale. Montgomery county,
where he was called to see case of
pellagra the third that has been re-
ported from Kansas this season. The
doctor established the new quarantine
method in this case, which is to say,
he ordered the house screened with in
sect proof screens, instead of the usual
quarantine methods. People may
come and go from the house, but it is
the sandflies and insects that the doe
tor wants to keep away from the pa
tient, or if they are inside the house,
keep them from the outside world
In the Tennessee cases of pellagra
the same quarantine methods in vogue
in case of a smallpox epidemic were
used But since the scientists have
begun to agree on the sandfy as the
cause of the terrible disease, the
method of screening the house with
close wire screens painted with a solu-
ton, has been agreed upon as more
effectual to prevent the spread of the
disease.
There have been ten cases of infan-
tile paralysis reported this year which

BIG BALLOON RACE
Will Start in Topeka on Sep
tember 90.
Four Cities Have Entered Their
Gas Bags.

Capt. Fl. E. Honeywell of ST. Louis,
manufacturer of balloons, and a pilot
of note in this country, was in Topeka
today arranging with H w. Jacobs,
president of the Western Aero asso-
citation, for the big inter-city race to
be held in Topeka this month. 1t was
decided that the race would start from
WestlaWn park, on the afternoon of
September 20.
The four cities to enter this race
are st. Louis. Kansas City, Salt Lake
City and Topeka. 1t is possible, all
though not probable, that Omaha and
Denver will get into the cloud pune
turing contest before the meet is
arranged completely.
Captain Honeywell is on his way
to Salt Lake City, where he will de-
liver to the ENTHUSIASTS of that city
a big balloon. He will remain in
Salt Lake City long enough to teach
the "Mormons'' how to fly. They will
try to qualify pilot before the To-
peka race.
Captain Honeywell was pilot of a
pleasure trip in Kansas City Thurs
day At this time five relay trip
was made with women passengers
The captain said the girls enjoyed ev-
cry minute of the flight.
It was hoped that the inter-city
race could be pulled off in fair week.
The Western Aero association was
willing but the gas company wanted
$1,000 to extend the high pressure
mains to the fair grounds and 1t was
not thought practical under these
circumstances
Topeka is due to become one of the
aeronautic centers of the country
The atmospheric conditions here, the
lack of mountains and big bodies of
water and the natural gas gives air
pilots a chance to travel many hun
dred miles before they find obstacles
and dangers.
An effort will be made next year to
land the national balloon races in this

of Albert Parker. who violated the quar-
antinc laws and is now under arrest
on a charge of beating his wife. It
was the young mans wife who sent to

that DR.. G. NJ. Hensley, county physi-

torneys force had taken undue advan-
tage of her and forced her to make
statements against her husband which
vera not true. These charges are de-
niedSby the parties who took Mrs. Par

who know the facts. and my discre-
ton as county attorney I think the case
