Here's a pointer for Dickinson.
This county ought to build some
county roads-one from Chapman to
solomon; one from Abilene to Man
chester and Talmage; one to Enter
prise and south to woodbine, Hope
and Harrington; one southwest to
elmo. This Is what Mcpherson is
doing as told by a dispatch: Dele
cations from all parts of the coun-
~ came to ask cooperation in build
ing county roads at the regular meet
Eng Of the Mcpherson county COM
mIssioners today. The commission
srs have practically decided to es-
4abiish the north and south road,
known as the Meridian Road, through
mis- county. This road extends from
she south line Of the county, coming
from Newton, through Mound Ridge

and through Saline county. Dele
cations came here from Little Valley
and Inman. urging a road to con-
meet with the Meridian Road about
ten miles south Of Mcpherson, ex-
tending west through Innian, thence
south to connect with a similar road
from Hutchinson. Hutchinson has
appropriated $4,000 to build it's part.
Other delegations we're here to ask

true economic difference In value Of
these two wheats Of 3 cents per
bushel.
Strange as 1t may seem, the plump
grains of yellow berry wheat pro-
duce less flour per bushel than the
smaller dark grains Of Kansas dark
Turkey. A laboratory is maintained
by a well known, Kansas mill where
tests are continuously made Of wheat
handled at their elevator and Of the
flour ground.
Practical tests, however, OF the
value Of wheat must invariably ter
inmate in the baking test either in
the laboratory, in the bakery or at
home. Upon this final test depends
the value OF all wheat and any pre-
liminary tests made are based upon
a knowledge OF what certain char
acteristics will produce in the flour
secured.
The buyer must of necessity pay
more for wheats which are of more
value to him, and in planting the
seed, If the grower fails to use seed
Of the best variety he loses very
considerable portion Of his efforts.
The increase in value which would
result from the breeding Of known
varieties and in their proper culti-
walton would no doubt pay the total
expense of reseeding the entire state
of Kansas each year.
We have as yet but tickled the
soil-have barely exposed the wealth
of our wheat fields. The proper
utilization Of Kansas as a wheat state
will make Of Kansas more prosper
GUS commonwealth than we have ever
dreamed Of. &
