Kansas Railroads Will Not Give

No Plans Made for Free Distri-

MAY SHIP SEED FREE.
But Farmers Will Have to Buy
the Grain.
Rail Men Watch Closely the
Crop Situations.

The railroads of the state can prom
Use little assistance to the farmers of
the northwestern part of Kansas who
are praying for seed wheat Officials
OF the general Offices of the Rock Is
land IN Topeka harbored little encour-
agement over the prospect of an offer
OF help They stated that the PROPOSE
tlon was too large for the railroads to
handle.
The Kansas railroacs have done
wonders in the last few years in en-
couraging the betterment of crops and
IN advancing free to tha farmers all
the information they could obtain on
the tickling of growing crops.
But IN the matter of giving away to
the farmers of seed wheat for plant
ing only one road has ever attempted
thls-that was the Santa Fe. But the
Santa Fe did this but once.
Inc only railroads running into the
northwest Kansas territory are the
Rock Island and the Union Pacific.
The Union Pacific has never taken any
activity in the matter of teaching the
farmers how to raise croDs in Kansas
The Rock Island has burned IN its
tracks with wheat trains and agricul-
tural specials.
James A. Stewart of Topeka. gen
eral passenger agent of the Second
district of the Rock Island Lines nm
ter or wheat trains and agricultural
specials, gave little announcement to
the free seed wheat prospects this
Task Is Too Great.
This proposition comes up directly
under II. NJ. Cottrell, agricultural com
missioner. said General Passenger
agent Stewart this afternoon. 1--WE
nave received large number of peti-
lions from farmers in this district and
from farmers in Oklahoma and the
Panhandle district in Texas. but we
have made no action. To furnisb the
farmers of these big sections with free
seed wheat is a big matter for the rail
roads TO undertake and from what [
know OF the situation I can see moth
ing ahead for this year."
II IS possible, however, that some
arrangements may be made to assist
the farmers in the shipment of their
wheat Some roads in the past have
shipped the seed wheat free of charge.
Others, ike the Santa F'e did in Okla
noma last year. have allowed the
farmers to give their notes to the rail-
road and pay for the seed wheat after.
the crop was harvested and sold. This
IS a Santa -Fe scheme in Oklahoma and
the Panhandle that worked with great
success.
The Santa Fe general officers in To-
peka report very little complaint from
Oklahoma and their territory. But
they have been watching with interest

Mailed Tnem in water Barrel.

Chanute. Kan, Aug. "a lady
rushing from the Santa Fe railroad
eating house yesterday afternoon in
qui ed where the mail box was. One
OF the loafers about the station
aroused himself enough to jerk his
thumb over his finger in the general
direction of the mail box. The crowd
was surprised, however. to see the lady
walk past the box to the water barrel
used to water the passenger coaches
and hauled about on two wheels in the
manner of a cart. Raising the lid CT
the barrel, she tossed two postal cards
into the water and boarded the train.
One of the bystanders was kind
enough to fish them from the barrel
and, dripping wet, jam them in the
mail box.
