A National Figure.
For many years Mr.. Funston was a

the state senate and at the close Of
his term there he was nominated and
elected to congress where he served FOR
II consecutive years.
AS a member of the national con-
sress his most effectual work was done
on the committee on agriculture OF
which he was chairman, for which po-
sition his long and successful expert
ence as a farmer had fitted him.
Through his efforts the department
of agriculture was advanced to the
rank of the other important depart
a member Of the presidents cabinet.
