HOLD YOUR
NEW WHEAT
Low Price Due To Fact That
Market Is Flooded Better
Prices Later On

Kansas farmers will do well to
hold on their farms as much
wheat as their circumstances
reasonably warrant. This is
the statement of w. M. Jardine,
dean of agriculture in the Kan
sas State Agriculture college.
The conclusion was reached at a
conference of grain men, rail-
road officials, elevator men, and
others.
The present price which is
from 90 to 65 cents, is low, and
is brought about, says Dean Jar
dine, largely because farmers
are reshing their wheat to mar
ket faster than it can be taken
care of, thus causing congestion
at terminal points The worlds
wheat cropis not unusually large
and there will be more wheat ex-
dorted from the United States
than 10 several years past, which
is not likely to result IN a low
price for the coming year. The
lowest price, according to Dean
Jardine, will probably be reach
ed in the next six weeks, and
farmers will be observing good
business methods in holding
their grain for higher figure.
A serious car shortage, and
consequent congestion in mar
keting the wheat crop can be
avoided, says Professor Jardine,
only by close cooperation among
all persons interested, including
the farmer. Arrangements are
being made to have local railroad
agents furnished with lnforma-
af0ni as to inability of wharf,
steamship and elevator compan-
les to dispose promptly Of grain
catering gulf ports. This will
get infor nation olocal shippers.

of Meade, was struck by light
ming and completely destroyed.
Only for the assistance of Ora

their harvest crews, another

have been destroyed. The stack
that burned contained about sew

PRIMARY IS
AUGUST 4th
Every Man And Woman Over
Twenty-one Years OF Age
Should Cast A Ballot

On another page of to.day's
News appears list of the cam
didates of the various tickets for
both state and county Offices.
On August 4th, just a little
more than three weeks, the pri-
mary election will be held, at
which time candidates from the
list mentioned, may be nominal
ed by the various political parties
of the state on their several tick-
cts. The primary election will
be held at the usual polling plac-
es of the county.
To many it may seem that it
is not necessary to go to the
polls and vote at the primary,
that there will be enough to vote
without you, but this is great
mistake. 1t is just as much
your duty to vote at the primary
as it is that you vote at the gem
eral election. For some of the
Offices, you will observe from
the list, there is more than one
candidate. One may be better
qualified than the other, or per-
haps one is friend of yours
whom you are particularly in
terested in and want to see nom
mated; but you have some work
to finish, or you let the day pass
unobserved. Then when you
hear the result, the poorly quail
lined candidate has won by few
votes or your friend has lost by
one or two votes. Then you re-
gret that you did not go to the
polls. You could have done SO,
and stopped by and taken neigh
Dor So-and-so with you and those
two votes would have changed
the whole result, but now il is
too late, and you are not satisfied.
Never put off until tomorrow
what you can do to day." The
4th of Angustis primary election
day and no other time will do.
The thing for every voter in this
county to do is to vote; make ar
rangements beforehand, so your
work on that day will not con-
fiictwith your going to the polls,
then If you have neighbor who
needs little coaxing, just drive
by and take him with you. Re-
member that every vote counts.
The ladies of Meade county,
and OF the entire state as well,
now have the same right to vote
as the men and they should be
equally as enthusiastic, if not
more so. Staying at home does
not relieve your responsibility,
SO vote, then if your choice is
not the choice of the people,
abide by the will of the majority.

from being stamped unpaid
the Stubbs administration had
drawn more than $500, 600 of the
taxes tor 1913 to pay 1912 bills;
so by delaying construction, the
previous Republican adminis-
tration unloaded the unfinished
building on the Hodges admins
tration and this made necessary
the appropriation of $l75, 900
more by the legislature of 1913.
Mr.. Akers knows that the legis-
lature of 1909 appropriated $780,
100000 to build the new Larned
State Hospital and a Tubercu-
losis San,tarium. He also knows
that these appropriations we're
taken into consideration in maxi
ing the tax levy of 1909 and that
therefore the money must have
been raised. Mr.. Akers knows
that no insane hospital and no
tuberculer sanitarium were built
in 1909 or 1910. The Republican
legislature of 1911 again appro-
priated $l50,000 for the same
purpose and these appropriations
were taken into consideration in
determining the amount of mon
ey to be raised by taxation for
1912, and therefore the money
must have been raised, but Mr..
Akers knows that no hospitals
were built in 1911 and 1912; and
heknows that when Governor
Hodges took possession of the
Governors Office in 1913 there
was no money in the state treas
ury for that purpose.
Perhaps Mr.. Akers can tell
the people where all this money |
which was raised by taxation to
build Memorial Hall and twice
raised by taxation to build these
hospitals, went tol 1t is certain
that it was not turned over to

With the market season for
wheat opening in Kansas and
Oklahoma, there is an influx of
all sorts of confidence games.
Among the most prevalent of
these are said to be an organized
gang OF stove and range agents.
Counties east and north report
a gang of swindlers at work SELL
ing thelr'goods to farmers, taxi
ing in return notes bearing GER
tain credits, butwhen the notes
turn up at the banks for collec-
ton the credits do not appear.
The wise thing to do is to sign
no paper of any kind when these
unknown salesmen approach.
No matter how PLAUSIBLE his
speech, don't sign yonr name to
his paper. Contracts, notes, and
agreements, under our finely
woven webb of law, can have a
thousand constructions and the
innocent purchaser" racket can
be worked to a fare.you-well.
The travelling salesman who has
a new contraption is very often
an undesirable man with whom
to do business anyway. If you
want range or stove, your home
dealer is the more trustworthy.
He is here twelve months in the
year. He must make good if be
desires your confidence. The
unknown salesman is here today
and gone tomorrow. If he has
sold you a gold brick he is gone
forever. You will hear of hin
no more but another will come il

sharing investment. Let the ir

Special Correspondence

y
is now asking reelection to the
Office of state treasurer as Reg
ular Repu blican, n,-.-recently pro-
pounded number of questions
in his Stafford County Repub-
lican," This is question No. !.
Why was it necessary for the
1913 legislature TO appropriate
over $50O,OOO, 90 more than its
immediate predecessors?
Inasmuch as the Press Bureau
has been successful in convinc-
ing Mr.. Akers that though not
legally bound to do SO, he is un-
der moral obligation to turn in
to the state treasury those fiscal
agency fees, which by the first
of January 1915 will have aggre-
gated 81, 200. .OO---ALTHOUGH
HE HAS NOT YET DONE so
perhaps we can be equally sue
cessful in satisfying him of the
necessity TO which be refers in
hrs question.
The Press Bureau will pl oceed
to enlighten him although Mr..
Akers having been member of
the charmed circle with free ac-
cess TO the inner shrine of the
last Republican state administra-
ton, ought TO know all about it.
Mr.. Akers ought to know that
in order to make a showing and
keep the state tax levy from be-
ing increased still more than it
was under the Stubbs admins
tration, the buildings at the var
ious state institutions we're per-
mitted 10 go without needed re-
pairs and up-keep. Mr.. Akers
should know that the big educa-
tional institntionsof the state
had been stunted and bampered
for want of sufficient approprla-
tons to keep them up to the Kan
sas standard, and that after trim
ming and cutting out every pos
sible item in the estimates for
these institutions, the Democrat
&c Legislature Of 1918 found it
necessary to give to these insti-
tutions, TO the state publication
of text books, and to the high
schools of the state, $63l, 600. 90
more money than did the legis-
lature of 1911.
This one item more than COW
ers the excess referred to in Mr..
Akers question, which excess by
the way was not over $500, 600. 90
but to be exact was $46l, eco. If
Mr.. Akers will take ontshis pen
Gil be will discover by the simple
process of subtraction that the
total increase in appropriations
was covered by this $63l, ,000. 90
given to the cause of education
and so returned to the people of
the state.
By the same process of sub
traction, Mr.. Akers may also
discover that the difference of
$170, 100000 between the total ex-
cess and the $63l, 100000 means
that appropriations for all other
purposes we're decreased by
just that amount. So that it fol-
lows that the appropriations for
the operative departments of
state we're decreased instead of
increased.
Mr.. Akers should know that
the legislature of 1909 appropri-
ated $500, 100000 to build Mem
orial Hall and that the legislature
of 1911 appropriated $3.50, 100000
more, making $45O,OOO.OO for
which a tax was levied and col
lected under the Stubbs admin
istration.f Mr.. Akers should
know that the building of Me-
mortal Hall was purposely delay

MUNDAY STATES PLAN
Has Scheme to Straighten Out AT.
fairs of His Chicago
Bank.

CHICAGO, June Sc. b. Munday. vice
president of the closed La Sale Street
Trust and Savings Bank, announced to-
day a new scheme to straighten out the
affairs of the institution. the principal
feature being the organization Of a new
bank which will purchase the assets of
the La Sale Street Bank and continue
its business.
Munday did not discuss again a state
ment made last night regarding the fund
of s., 200, 900, which, he said. friends were
to advance to help in reopening the La
Sale Street Bank.
A number of depositors anxious for the
safety of their funds stood in front
of the closed La Sale Street Bank.
An attempt will be made by Alder
man Merriam tonight to have the city
council authorize an investigation of
limit allowed by law with the Lorimer-
Munday banks. when other financial in
situations were not so favored.
C. " Novak, president of the state
bank of Calumet, which was closed
Saturday, said that the depositors Of
the bank would be paid in full whetfsDr
or not the bank obtained the $4,000
which it had on deposit with the La
Sale Street bank.
Marine, ILL.,, was closed by the directors
today pending an examination by a rep
resentative of the state auditor. The
action of the directors was voluntary.
c. B. Munday resigned the presidency at
the request of the directors following the
closing of the Chicago banks in which
he was interested.
