Topeka FAIR BEST
Manhattan Man Compares Two Kan
sas Fairs This Year.

The Manhattan Nationalist of
Wednesday says:
There were two state fairs in Kan
sas this year, not only in name but
in fact says G.. M. Hammond, who
attended both of them. Mr.. Ham
mond acted as q. judge of the hogs in
the Topeka stock show. For many
wears he has been an exhibitor of fine
hogs, but for the past two years none
of his stock has been in the show
ring.
In point of stock shows, the To-
peka fair had it all over the Hutch
inson show" says Mr.. Hammond.
'HThere were $50 head of hogs on ex-
hibition at Topeka and $50 at Hutch
inson. The same thing was true of
the horse and cattle exhibits. / believe
that the Topeka show was the greatest
l have ever seen in the state.'
The Topeka show drained the entire
eastern and northern section of the
state, and the Hutchinson event was
the feature of the southwestern part.
The largest crowd was at the Topeka
fair.
The people certainly did crowd to
the Topeka fair. In former years the
farmers and sometimes their wives,
attended the fair from out of town.
This year the whole family came
along.
st have always been a partisan of
the Hutchinson fair in the past. but
Topeka showed the more pep and gin
ger this year"

POLICE CIVIL SERVICE
It. b. Garrett Says Topeka Force VIII
Be Placed Under Regulations.

That the Topeka police department
ultimately is to be placed under civil
service regulations is the intention of
the civil service commission, accord
ing to T. B. Garrett, member of the
commission. No attempt, however,
will be made to displace any of the
present members of the force, nor will
they be asked to take examinations
which will be held Monday
Examinations for patrolmen will be
given on that date. but successful APP
plcants will be forced to wait until
vacancies on the force occur in the
regular course of events, and then the
chances of receiving an appointment
are doubtful.
Mayor House contends that civil
service regulations do not apply to po-
l1cemen. Garrett holds that they do.
Each bases his conclusions upon de-
cisions of the Kansas supreme court.

GUILTY OF DRIVING
MULE TO ITS DEATH
NEGRO WHO WAS IN CHARGE
OF ICE WAGON WHEN ANIMAL
FELL DEAD IN SHAFTS, RE-
sPONSIBLE FOR SAME.

Almost the whole of yesterday In
the court Of record was consumed in
the trial Of Lee Bedside, colored, who.
had been charged with extreme cruel
ty to animals, in that he had driven
mule so hard that the animal died.
The jury, out about one hour, re-
turned at 5 o'clock, finding the black
man guilty as charged. He was not
sentenced.
Last summer q mule which was
driven by the negro became real
helpless while pulling wagon used
for retailing ice, and before the AMI
nal could reach the stable lot, had
fallen In the streets and died just
about the time veterinarian, who
was summoned, could reach the
scene. It was declared at the time
that the mule had been over-driven
and Bedside, who was in charge Of
the wagon, was charged with the Of
Tense. Although the case was fought
hard in the court of record yesterday
the jury appeared not to have found
any trouble in agreeing that the
negro was guilty as charged, despite
the fact that customers along the
route as supplied by Bedsole's wagon
had been requested to go and did
show up to testify in the negro's be-
half.

Il RAILROADS
EAST To WEST
Pacific Coast Traffic Heavier
Than NOrth-SOuth Business.
Other Items of General Interest
i'm the Traffic World.

The traffic of western railroads
north and south, as compared to east
and west, makes an interesting study.
There is a wide difference between the
merchandise shipped from the east to
the Rocky mountain and Pacific coast
states with the shipments from the
western territory to the east.
This great western country natural
ly was built up from the east to the
west" said J. c. Burnett, assistant
general freight agent of the Santa Fe.
1.-The railroads through this district
have the general tendency in that di
rection. The great movements of
freight go either west or east and have
been doing so for many years.
However, of late the railroads
have been developing the south lines
to the gulf. In times of peace we
probably ship more grain to Galveston
and other gulf ports than to the east.
That is for export shipping. The vol
ume of foodstuffs from Kansas and
Oklahoma that is sent abroad via these
ports is huge.
1.-The heaviness of our traffic varies
with the seasons. AT certain times of
the year the citron, lemon and grape
industries of California have big load
ings for the east. Then the 'empties'
are on the trains bound for the coast.
The east sends manufactured goods
west and the west furnishes the east
with grains, meats and dairy prod
ucts. All of this can be seen in look
ing over bills of lading.''
Not long ago the grain movement
was leading. However the shipme nt
OF cattle from Kansas City and Chi
cage is playing a dominant part in
Kansas freight movements.

LAYS 226 EGGS IN YEAR
IA. S. A C. Hen Holds 40 Year Rec
ord of Her Glass.

Manhattan, Kan, Nov. 25.-Kansas
AS is the holder of the forty-year
laying record for single-comb white
beghorn hens. according to an an
nouncement made by officials of the
Kansas State Agricultural college to-
day. The hen, the property of the
college. has laid 226 eggs in twelve
months.
While the eggs from this hen We're
somewhat SMALL, said William A
L1ppincott, head of the poultry hus-
bandry department, the record is,
nevertheless, the largest fourth-year
laying record yet reported
Another white Leghorn hen, Kansas
A-19, also the property of the college,
completed her fourth laying year with
a record of 167 eggs, it was an
hounceo: These eggs average p
ounces in weight, two-tenths of an
ounce in excess of the standard
weight, and, it is said, they would be
graded as fancy extras on any mar
ket.
Both of these records were made
under the ordinary flock conditions on
the college poultry farm under the
supervision of N. L. Harris, superin-
care or extra food. They were given
hopper-fed mash consisting of the
following ingredients: corn meal, 20
pounds; shorts, 40 pounds; bran, 80
pounds; commercial meat scrap, 20
pounds. The scratching feed consist
ed of corn, three parts; wheat, two
parts, oats, one, part
The henhouse was of the open
front or fresh air type facing the
south and built so as to prevent draft
The hens were allowed to run in the
yard all winter. The floor of the house
was covered six to eight inches deep
with straw. The scratching feed was
scattered in the straw morning and
evening. This feeding was so regu-
lated that the hens ate two pounds of
grain to one pound of mash. There
was also a constant supply of fresh
water, grit and she'll
These hens are of the standard
pred stock, selected for egg produc-
ton. Many heavy layers are given
individual care while making their
records, Mr.. Harris pointed out, but
