DOG LIKES TOBACCO.
BeSs Weed From Railroad Men at
Hanover.

Marysville, Kan, Sept. 17.-"Bob" is
the name of a greyhound dog that
chews tobacco. Bob makes his home
at the Avenue hotel, a railroad mems
hosiery at Hanover, fifteen miles west
of Marysville and a division point on
the St Joseph & Grand Island road.
This dog has learned to know all the
railroad boys who use tobacco and as
soon as one comes in from the road the
dog will begin begging for a chew of
the weed.
Instead of eating the tobacco, as most
animals do that use it at all, the dog
will take the chew between his front
paws and stretching himself at full
length on the floor will lick the tobacco
until the juice is all gone, when he will
take the 'leftovers" to the front door
and cast it out. Bob has been adj
dicted to this habit so long that his
front paws are stained a dark brown.

DRoUTH NOT FAMINE PRODUCER
Would Have Been Disastrous Long
Ago-State Was Prepared.

Washington, Kan, Sept. 17.-"Thirty
years ago a drouth like the one Kan
sas has just passed through might have
hurt the farmers, but this one will not
be remembered as a famine producer.
There has been less feed produced than
in other years, but more of it has been
conserved by use of silos and care in
harvesting.
That is the way Edgar Bennett of
Washington, who has lived in Wash
ington county 40 years, expresses his
belief in the prosperity of Kansas. In
addition to a good wheat crop in his
county, one good crop of alfalfa and
plenty of fodder, there will be grass
for about six weeks fall pasture, he
says.
There is plenty of feed for all the
stock in the county and a fine indica-
ton of a big wheat crop next year,
Mr.. Bennett said. Nearly all the corn
has been cut and is being sown in
wheat. The fields are in excellent con-
dition and the light yield of corn this
year is the equivalent of a seasons
rest for the SOIL.

Manhattan, Kan, Sept. 1.-THE small
towns and villages of Kansas need

dean of the division of college extern
sion at the agricultural college. They
should look to the betterment of their
appearance; to the improvement of
their streets and alleys; to the plant

to the esta blishment of a town park;
and there should be a general cleaning
up at least once a year. --dnsas viii

spruce up a bit.
Our small towns are slow about
putting in public utilities, such as wa

are 200 fine towns in Kansas situated
on good streams where water power
could be developed to run their light,
ice and water plants. Every town of
700 people should own and operate it's
own light and water plant. Cost too
much? The man who grumbles about
taxes in the small town would be bet
little town of Cedar Point with less
than 200 people has just contracted for
a $4,000 light plant.
Every village and town should have
Community Improvement club. These
clubs should have both men and wo-
men as members, and committees in
charge of the various lines of work,
such as streets, parks, schools, recrea-
ton and entertainment, lecture courses,
churches and Sunday schools. The ag-
ricultural college desires to help in
this work and will send it's men to any
town in the state to confer on one or
more matters of public welfare-parks,

AS CLEARING HOUSE.
Agricultural College VIII Help Farmer
Sell Apples.

Manhattan, Kan, Sept. 17.-Anyone
who has apples to sell or who would
like to buy some should apply to the
apple marketing bureau at the Kansas
Agricultural college. That department
of the extension division of the college,
under the direction of George o. Greene,
extension horticulturist, is again pre-
pairing to act as a clearing house for
Kansas grown apples this fall. Grow
ers who have few bushels or a car
load should send in their names to the
bureau now, giving the names of the
varieties for sale, and telling whether
the apples were sprayed or not. Mer-
! chants and produce dealers, also, are
urged to use the apple bureau.
The extension division also is finding
buyers and sellers of feed, grain, pota-
toes, and hay. J. H. Miller, dean of
this division, is handling this part of
the marketing bureau. A number of
farmers without feed already have been
put in communication with others who
have feed to sell. The college makes
no charge for this help.
