information that will tell what the

of any particular age and occupation,
will be. Mr.. Deacon's title is regis
trar of vital statistics. He has lust
returned from summer of study at
Harvard where he persued his favor
ite line, coming home with plans for
perfecting for Kansas the vital tab
les corresponding to those now used
fby life insurance companies. The
Kansas however will be far more con-
else and up to date than that which
the insurance companies use.
|. The decision of the state board of
educational administration, w hich has
charge of all Kansas colleges, to fur
nish lectures in which professional
men will tell the students what they
must look forward to in the persuit
of the various professions, promises
to attract much attention over the
country. Colleges and universities
have been accused with being out of
touch with actual business life
Henceforth the board proposes to
drill into the student some idea of
what they are going up against when
they leave college SO the college grad
uate will be better able to form some
practical plan for using the educa-
tion they have been give. The girls
will hear the lectures as we'll as the
boys SO they know what they have a
rightto expect of the husbands they
may subsequently, elect.
Frank Nj. StahI, superintendent of
the state temperance union, says the
Democratic administration is making

Our interests are being watched as
carefully by Governor Hodge as they
have ever been, and the. cooperation
between him and attorney general
! Dawson has thus far been perfect
according TO Mr.. StahI, who watches
the business of liquor prosecution
constantly
Governor Hodges is making good
on his election promises and there
are no evidences of mental reser-
vations in regard to the enforce
ment of the liquor laws of the state.

MARKET REPORT

Kansas City Stock Yards, August
20, 1913. Fifty seven thousand cat
tie in two days this week at Kansas
City probably surpasses all records of
receipts at any market in Two con-
secutiye days, but it has not been
able to put any hicks in the edge of
the demand for cattle, merely dulling
it little. Killers have displayed
unusual desire for cattle, and as a
very large per cent of the supply runs
to stock grades and feeders, cattle in
the killing classes are selling well.
There was a decline of 10 to Is cents
on killers yesterday, though cows
held almost steady, and the market
on fat cattle to-day is steady, choice
to prime cattle strong. Prime year
lings brought 5000 yesterday, and
again to-day, and heavy steers brought
that price yesterday. Kansas pasture
steers held up well yesterday, not
more than 10 to Is off, and they are
steady to-day, at range of $3.50 to
1915. Quarantine cattle sold 10 to 20
lower yesterday, steady to day, steers
at S5- 25 to $3.50 to-day, nothing in
above 1000 lbs weight. A run of I4o
cars quarantine arrived to-day, but
sreceipts from that section are light
to-day, 40 car. loads. Veal calves are
lower this week, best So. so and stock
calves are sharply lower than last
week. Demand for thin cattle from
Iowa, Illinois and states east is prov
ing to be the backbone of the cattle
market this month. One hundred
thousand cattle have been purchased
here since August L and shipped to
the country, and there is apparently
no end to the orders still to be filed
Iowa took 10000 cattle from here last
week, Missouri 5000. Illinois $500,
Indiana $500, Ohio 1900, Kansas 2O0O,
scattering 1900, total $1,000 cattle to
the country from here last week.
Outgo will, of course, be much great
er this week, the reduction of 25 to
of a quarter last week, acting as a
good lubricator to the movement
country wards.
After week of good quality, hogs
are beginning to show grass signs again
and the low grades are to 10 lower
to-day, good hogs steady to strong.
Outside order buyers are active in
the market, and picked up all the
most desirable hogs from their stand
point to-day. Sleeps and lambs are
stronger this week, following advan-
ces last week, top lambs to-day 81 80,
fair to good lambs S7.25 to $7.65,
Utah yearlings S.. 80, Utah ewes s4 40,
some common feeding lambs at So. 90.
Receipts 5000 to day.

Topeka News Letter

Topeka, August %.
The protection of Kansas cattle
breeders against importation of tub
CIRCULAR stock is occupying much of
the attention of the live stock sani-
tary commissioner, Sam S. Graybill
who is cooperating with federal
authorities in tracing diseased ami
mails recently shipped here. What is
considered evidence of colluSion be-
tween shippers and veterinaries of
other states in passing animals Sus-
pected of infection has been found
the difficulty confronting the Kansas
officers being that the offense was
committed outside their Jurisdiction
1t Is the hope of the live stock
commission that through federal aid
prosecutions can be made that will
protect dairymen in this state. The
losses to Kansas are direct as infect
ed stock must he killed and paid for
by the county where found. The
situation is discouraging TO localities
where dairy interests need develope-
ment.
If Kansas ever expects to 60 into
the state life insurance business, fol-
lowing the example of certain foreign
countries where state insurance has
been successful, the information nee
essary to establish the vital statistics
requisite for the safe calculation OF
risks, will be at hand in the records
of the state board of health. J. w.

We were preaching to a bunch of
farmers that milo should be made
the principal grain crop and kafir the
main forage crop, with a chance for
grain from the kafir, when ae.Well-to-
do farmer What is the use
of talking milo and kafir to men like
me who are in debt from Sc, GOO to
Sc, ,000- We couldn't pay such debts
in hundred years out of milo and
kafir crops. Nothing but big farm-
ing and big crops can ever pull us
out of the hole.'' We will not at
tempt to show that farmer should
never get into debt like that in this
country, for that farmer realizes that
those who yield to temptation and
plunge into debt at time when it
looked safe has been forced to suffer
all the agony necessary To argue for
a safer business course now is of no
avail. He is stuck in a hole and
needs something more substantial
than advice to pull him out. No liv-
ing man can fortell what would be
the best course for our people heavily
in debt to follow. If two or three
goods years were assured they would
come out with flying colors. If we
knew that several more bad years
were going tofollow they would all
through up the sponge right now
But looking at the situation from a
practical standpoint it seems to us
that even farmers heavily in debt
could settle down to methods more
conservative and certain and eventu-
ally work out their financial saliva
tion and enjoy life far better while
doing it. This thing of going your
best all the time after a big uncer-
tain crop is killing pace and with
such failures as we have bumped into
for three years no man can stand up
and keep his nerve. Any substantial
farmer whose property is safe secur-
ity for his loans can keep borrowed
money so long as he continues to pay
his interest If the burden seems too
great for conservative methods per-
tion of the land might be disposed of
when conditions get favorable But
mark our woTd-these same conser-
vative farm methods will in the end
prove that our land is worth Just as
much when devoted to feed, milk
cows and hogs as land used for the
same purpose father east which sell
for s100 to 5000 an acre. And we are
stalking our reputation as long dis
tance farmer on milo as a grain and
forage crop and both TO be fed on the
farm to the milk COW and hogs.-HiIT
