Dieter Farming Association Special
Grand Forks. April 3.-In a
talk upon the subject of crop
sequence. O. G. Center, of the
Better Farming association at
Grand Forks, called particular
attention to crops which should
follow the rye crop. He said:
Winter rye shells more or
less in the field every fall, and
sufficient amount survives
the winter 80 that there is an
admixture in the succeeding
crop, which, if it happens to
be wheat, is very detrimental.
For this reason it is advisable
to follow the rye crop with
barley or oats. Thus the vol
unteer rye is secured in q feed
crop. one where it does no
damage, in fact is an advant-
age. On the other hand, it is
almost impossible to clean rye
from wheat, and the rye crop
should never be followed by
the wheat crop.
1T is important to follow
winter rye with the right kind
of crop, and particular atten-
ton should be given this
important point. The farm
ers of the state can save them
selves money by observing the
right sequence Of crops."

State Had Only Seventeen Fires and
Two Deaths by Fireworks.

Topeka, July 1.-Two deaths and
1886 worth Of property destroyed
was the sum total Of the Fourth OF
July celebration in Kansas, probab-
ly the lowest loss of any state OF
similar size in the country. The
entire fire loss on July this year
was S960 and the losses to proper
ty caused by fireworks was only
1895. In 1912 the actual fire loss
for Kansas, as shown by the in
surance reports, was a little less
than $4,000 every day In the year
and ordinarily the fire losses on
July have been heavy.
Harrison Parkman, state fire
has just received the prac-
tically complete fire loss reports for
July 4. There were seventeen fires
caused by fireworks but the fire
fighters prevented any serious loss.

ARILENE EIGUREs d RATE oAsE
Concordia Company Cited AbiIene's
Freight Schedule.

Concordia, July 9.-The Concor
dia Ice and Cold Storage company
won its fight before the public util'
tiles commission for a reduction on
coal rates from the Pittsburg dis
trict to Concordia. The commission
handed down decision yesterday
afternoon ordering a reduction In
the rate from Pittsburg to Concor-
dia from $1.54 to $1,20 on slack,
nuts and pea coal. The new rate
goes into effect August 8. The or
der is made to the Santa Fe, the
Union Pacific and the Missouri Pa
cific.
The evidence In the hearing show
ed that the rate to Abilene from
Pittsburg, distance of 22O miles,
was 81. The fifty-five miles from
Abilene to, Concordia we're charged
to cost "a cents. While the rate
per ton mile to Abilene was 3.S mills
from Abilene to Concordia 1t was
l cent per ton mile, with the salt
towns OF the state getting lower
rate ON the same kind of coal. Re-
Gently the commission denied the
of the Concordia COM
pany for a reduction in the rates
for carrying ice, on the ground that
the rate was not shown to be prac-
tically discriminatory.

Democrats to Use the Republican
Analysis.
saIooT DELAYED INTRODUCTION
Change Measure Now Before It Goes
to Printer to Avoid Republican
CEiticism-ErrOrs Found
in Document.

Washington, July 9.-Senatol
Simmons, chairman of the finance
committee, turned a trick on Re
publican leaders today when he got
his hands on a lengthy analysis OF
the Democratic tariff bill, which
had been prepared under the direc.
ton of Senator Smoot, pointing out
what the Republicans claim are SER
ious defects in the measure.
Senator Smoot had delayed for a
month the introduction of the analy7
sis despite insistenqe of Senator
Simmons that 1t be printed. On the
last day of the caucus, when the
Republicans were assured that the
Democrats were through with the
bill, Senator Smoot consented to
send the document in for the print
err. But the Democrats have not
yet printed their bill and have
day or two to make corrections and
laugh at their opponents, inasmuch
as debate will not begin until next
week.
Knowing that the Republican doc
ument might contain valuable point
ers, Senator Simmons directed the
finance subcommittee to go over
the Smoot analysis to check up with
the subcommittee tomorrow. Senator
Simmons heard some weeks ago that
leaders had cautioned
Senator Smoot to hold back the
analysis. Don't send 1t in yet"
they urged. at will give us away"
The finance committee chairman de-
termined to lay in watt for the
document and today he bounced
upon it before it went to the print

INTERNAL REVENUE $500, 900.
Figures for Kansas-MOney From
BOOtleggers.

Wichita, July 9.-Receipts from
internal revenue in Kansas were
the heaviest during the past year
that they have ever been, according
to statement made today by d. l.
Sweeney of this city. Mr.. Sweeney
is collector of internal revenue, as
he has been for many years, and he
keeps in pretty close touch with
all. the affairs of the department.
He has received information from
headquarters that the receipts for
the year exceeded 100000 in Kan
sas,
A good many persons think that
most of the internal revenue COL
lected comes from liquor dealers,
but Mr.. Sweeney says that is an
unimportant part of the receipts in
Kansas. He does say, however, that
owing to the large number Of boot
leggers in the state he believes more
tax is received from the liquor busi-
ness than would be received If sa-
looms were permitted to run.
The biggest item of internal rev.
enue tax in Kansas is derived from
corporations. Next is the tax from
oleomargerine. Then comes the to-
bacco, liquor, mixed flour and few
other contributors to the fund.
When the income tax bill be-
comes a law, as it probably will be-
fore the adjournment of congress,
another duty will be added for the
revenue collector. and an
other big item will be added to the
annual receipts.
