GET ON GOOD WATER MAP
Many Cities and Towns in Kansas
Have Built Improved SYSTEMS
in Last Year.

A growing distate for water loaded
with filth and overpopulated with bac-
terra and a desire on the part of Kan
sas cities and towns to furnish health
full water to the people. who get most
of what they drink from the end of
a pipe is shown in a report just given
out from the engineer of the state
board of health, c. A. Haskins OF the
University of Kansas.
Sixteen water-works plants were
built during the year, following plans
approved by the university engineers
employed by the board of health.
These are in Burlingame, Cimarron,
Douglas. Esbon, Highland, Jetmore,
Jewell City, Kanapolis, Madison, Mo
line, Nickerson, Oxford, Sedgwick,
Strong City, Turon and Westmoreland.
Fourteen other cities have secured
reports on available water supplies
and are considering the construction
of plans in accordance with recon-
mendations of the engineer.
Sewer systems and extensions-an-
other sign of better health in the COM
munity-have been built in thirty-four
cities the past year. Hundreds Of
complaints as to unsanitary conditions
have been investigated by the depart
ment and recommendations made for
preventing the pollution of streams,
for the construction of small sewage
disposal plants, for proper farm SAM
tation, and for taking care Of manu-
featuring wastes.

GOODYEAR TIRES AT
ANTE-BELLUH PRICES

The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co
announce mo war prices on Goodyear
Tires Mr. F. A Sieberling, president
Of the Company, thus explains their
unique position
I've advanced Goodyear prices, as
others did theirs, when the rubber
panic came. Almost In q day crude
rubber rose In New York from IS cents
per pound to much over a dollar.
''The New York supply was too
small to consider. We cabled our
London people to buy up the pick OF
the rubber there. By acting quickly
and paying cash they obtained 1901
600 pounds Of the finest rubber.
That big supply Of rubber is now
nearly all OF the way to the Goodyear
factory IN Akron It constitutes the
best Of the London supply.
we are using the same grade OF
rubber and the same amount OF It as
We always have used In these tires.
I'VE are running our factory with
three shifts OF men, twenty-four hourz
day. So long as we remain In this
fortunate position on rubber, We shall
supply tire users at before-war prices
to the limit OF our capacity"

BANKS COME FIRST
Federal Reserve Board Will
Not Hear Cities Protest
Until Later.
IN OPERATION BY OCTOBER
Class c Directors of Regional Institu-
tions Now Under Con-
sideration.

Washington.-The federal reserve
board will organize the twelve re-
giOnal reserve banks in the cities
designated by the organization com
mittee and place in operation the new
banking system before it hears and
acts upon the petitions of Baltimore,
Pittsburgh, Omaha and New Orleans
for a reversal of the committees ac-
ton in selecting reserve bank centers
and fixing boundary lines for the bank
ing districts.
This information was given the cor
respondent by member of the board
According to the informant, the board
is now making herculean efforts to
organize the reserve banks and place
the new banking machinery into oper-
alton by October L 1t would require
months to review the organization
committees work asked by the pro-
testing cities.
The federal reserve board has taken
up consideration of the thirty-six
Glass sc" directors OF the twelve re-
serve banks, whose appointment will
mark virtually the last important step
before the actual organization of the
banks. More than two hundred names
are before the board and the final list
of appointees is not expected before
next week.
Members of the board are curious
about published reports that New
York bankers expect to underwrite
about $50, 100000 of obligations of the
city now held in Europe. They have
no definite assurances that such a syn
dictate has been organized and do not
know whether its existence would
mean a reduct' On in the total amount
to be cared for by all national banks.
Every effort is being made through
the clearing house associations to OBJ
tain definite information as to the ex-
act amount of gold in possession Of all
national, state and private banks in
the country Members of the board
expressed the belief that if the banks
put the SIS, 100000 figured upon by
the bankers committee on first call,
there would be no necessity for fur
Their advances. They figure that when
the European creditors find that
American bankers are willing to pay
in gold they viii make no further de-
mands for such payments. The Eu-
ropean bankers, in the view of experts
here, will see that in a few weeks
they will be making purchases in the
United States which will take up the
present debt balance

PROF. JARDINE ADVISES MORE ALFALFA

can be obtained; in some other places
the best results come from fields
where the alfalfa is planted in rows.
and cultivated In a large part Of
Kansas, however, the only thing need
ed to get a stand is to put good seed
into a properly prepared seed bed.
A seed bed for alfalfa should be
firm and well stored with moisture and
available plant food To accomplish
this the ground should be plowed
thoroughly and the surface kept IN
good cultivation for at least two
months before seeding In eastern
Kansas the best results usually are
obtained from fall seeding. In west
ern Kansas spring seeding is prefer
able.
Alfalfa responds quickly to app.ica-
tons of barnyard manure. Manure is
OF benefit to an old, established stand,
but experiments have proved that the
greatest value is derived By applying
manure to the crop preceding the
alfalfa

Kansas in alfalfa production, but
