DRY FARMERS meet.
Well Known Experts on Big Program
at Garden City.

Garden City,. Kan, May 19.-The
Kansas Dry Farming association will
mold Its fourth annual convention at
Garden City June and 5. The fore
moons will be devoted to excursions by
automobile TO points of interest. among
which will be the branch experiment
station, irrigation plants, sugar beet
fields and factory and to fields of sweet
clover.
The forenoon and evening of the
first day will be devoted to the dis
cussion Of the following topics: Farm
practice. cultivation and the control of
soil blowing; pure bred and general
livestock; the dairy industry, silos and
s1lages; the cultivation of sweet clover;
the grain sorghums; the sugar beet
industry; good roads and bridging;
pumping plant irrigation; cooperation
and farm loans.f
A large number of prominent farm
ers and agriculturists will be pres
ent to assist in the discussion. Pro-
fessor c. r. Ball. Messrs J. E. Cole
and w. W. Burr of the United States
department of agriculture, President
II. J. waters, Deans w. M. Jardine and
]. III. Miller, Professors c. A. Cochel,
Q. E. Reed. H. B. Walker and w. S.
Gearhart from the Agricultural col
lege, H. M. Bainer of the Santa Fe
and H. M. Cottrell of the Rock Island
railroad, and John T. Burns of the In
lerndulOndI Dry Farming Congress
have signified their intention to attend
and take leading parts. Prominent
citizens of Garden City will be active
in making the meeting a success.
The association was organized in
1910 for the purpose of disseminating
practical knowledge of dry farming
and to encourage the adoption of bet
ter farming methods in Kansas. West
ern Kansas has been essentially a one
crop section and the effect of crop fail
ure under this condition is a heavy
burden upon the resource of the coun-
try. The association is preaching the
adoption of diversified farming as is
being demonstrated on the various ex-
pertinent station farms. This new
propaganda calls for the use of crop
rotation that shall include with win
ter wheat, year of fallow and one
of the grain sorghums. For the uti-
lization of this last crop and to con-
vert it into a marketable produce live
stock and the si1o are advocated. The
association believes that when such a
system is adopted it will mean much
more to the state than occasional
heavy yields of wheat.
A large delegation will go from
Hays and the Hays branch experiment
station. Over 500 personal invita-
tions are being sent out to farmers of
western Kansas Where possible they
are urged to attend by automobile and
many are planning to- go in this man
ner. SpeciaF passenger service is be-
ing asked for from Winona to Garden
City, and further notice will be given
if this service can be secured.

CROWD MOBS UMPIRE.
International League Game Broke Up
Police Escort Official to Train.

Newark, N. J., May ia decision
by Umpire Hayes of the international
league that a ball knocked over the
right field fence was a home run led
to a player being taken from the field
by the police and later officers were
forced to escort the umpires from the
ground, amid shower of bottles,
stones, cushions and other missiles.
The trouble started in the third in
ming of a game between Newark and
Rochester The visitors were leading,
to 0, and had two men out and one
man on bases.
Zinn sent the ball over the right
field fence Swachin, the Newark
first baseman, declared it foul and
protested so vigorously when Hayes
permitted the two runs to tally that
he was ordered from the field. He
refused to obey and Hayes called on
the police to put him off.
When the game ended the crowd
surged out on the diamond and tried
to get at Hayes. The police formed a
hollow square about the umpire and
led him out. When reserves had
cleared a way, Hayes was escorted to
a train.
