WEEKLY LETTER ON AGRICUL TURF
Preventative Ways of Controlling
 Insects and Grass

At this time there is much work that can be done in the way Of cleaning out the hiber- hating places of many kinds of insects, such as the cut worm.
 potato beetle, boil weevil, corn
 ear worm and numbers of other insects that can be killed out by
 burning the fence corners, rotten stumps, old logs in the field, ditch banks and the ends of rows that never have been cultivated
 There will not be much required
 in the way of work and time at the present and much can be ac- complished now that will be of untold value later on in the sea son. We must remember that on every farm at some time dur ing the growing season there is an occasion to have anxiety over
 the presence of some sort of pest or insect. Now is the time to make the first and really the most important step toward the prevention of these pests. Burn out the fence corners, ditches, 1 and old logs and stumps in and {. about the fields. It will repay l. you an hundredfold.
 The above means of prevent ! ing insects and crop pests is in reality cultivation of the crop and . should be regarded as such. The | best farmers now are convinced I that cultivation begins long be- fore the plants are up and follow that practice. Aside from the killing out of insects there Is an other reason for early cultivation. Grass can be controlled if we start early enough. and we can not start early enough unless we begin the cultivation of our corn, cotton and other crops before they come up. This cultivation should be done with a section harrow so as to cover a great deal of ground il. short time, and because the harrow or culti- vator or weeder is really the best means of killing out the young grass that will be up and under way by the time the crop comes up unless we kill it out. A har- row or weeder will not kill grass after it has had the same start that the crop has. A sweep and a hoe are the only remedies we have left; and too many trips are to the row to be forced to depend on these implements.
 The first cultivation should be made with the harrow diagonally across the field. It does not make any difference whether the soil is loose, foul. clean tight, or he aVV the harrow should be used before the plants come up. If f the land is clean a second culti- vation should be given across the field in the opposite direction with the harrow. and third should be given a week or ten days later, again re- versing the direction. By this time we are ready for the culti- vator. And if there is great deal of undecayed vegetable mat ter in the field it will not be found safe to use the harrow Tn he first cultivations because of he danger of dragging up the ,eed and yonng plants. In this :ase use the cultivator for the irst cultivation instead ot the . narrow. Then we can continue he use of the cultivator until the D plants get so large that it is no onger safe to use this imple- nent. Then grass and weeds ,an be controlled by the other ; ordinary means. T

TEST OUT PROFITABLE COWS
important That Farmer Should Know
Quantity and Quality He Is Re-

By w. A. M'KERROW. Minnesota Elk

Feed is going to be higher than
usual this season unless all signs fail.
1t is, therefore, doubly important that
the farmer keeping dairy COWS should
be sure that his cows are giving him
more than value received for what
they eat. The way to be sure OF this
is to have scales and a Babcock tester
This is only one of the reasons why
farmers should test their cows Tor
quantity and quality of product.
Other reasons for contrasting are:
1t enables the farmer to eliminate
cows that do not pay for their board
1t saves many a good cow from the
shambles.
1t is an encourager of good feeding
and good care
It gives the farmer an opportunity
to build up a good producing herd.
1t increases ones interest in dairy
ing as a business rather than as a
means of labor merely.
In short, it is plain common sense.

forming material such as alfalfa, oats
and wheat bran, will be more vigorous
and give better service than a bull
permitted to run with the cows. 1t is
very essential that the bull should
have plenty of exercise, which he can
not get if confined to a stall. Where
it is impossible for the owner to fence
securely about one acre for the bull,
he can very easily provide the neces-
sary exercise by stretching a strong
wire between two substantial posts
and fastening the bull by chain from
the ring in his nose to a ring which
slips loosely over the wire. This
makes a secure fastening and one
which experience has proved practi-
cable.
When kept in this way the bull is
also more easily managed. A dairy
bull makes a dangerous pet, and
should never be so far trusted as to
be in a position where he can get the
advantage of his attendant. Those un-
fortunate accidents which have some
times occurred have usually been due
to overconfidence on the part of the
attendant.
The bull should always be handled
kindly and firmly, and should under
stand that his attendant is his master
1t is always advisable to train the bull
calf to lead, and a ring should be
placed in his nose at an early date.

TO HONOR John P. ST. JOHN
Plans for Memorial Building at

The committee of Olathe citizens

Gov. John P. ST. John have announced
their plans.
The committee, composed of some
c1udes: ]. l. Pettyjohn, Frank

H. Hyer and Mrs. c. A Stevenson.
Mr.. Pettyjohn is president and Mrs
Stevenson is. treasurer. The commit
tee is incorporated by the state Of
Kansas as charitable institution,
and members all are under bond. Ac-
cording to the articles of incorpora-
ton the members of the committee
serve without pay, and in case of a
vacancy by death, the membership is
perpetuated by an election.
In order to finance the memorial
contributions will be solicited through
out the United States
The committee expects to raise a
fund of 100000. OF this $4,000 will
be used for the construction of the
building and the remainder placed in
securities bearing at least per cent
interest. This will give the memorial
an annual income of $4,000, which

Blame the Tariff.

ward to guard against a threatened
deficit, thus giving a measure of pro-

pie, but otherwise, the only solution
of the business situation, in my opin-
ion, is the election of a Republican
congress and president next year."

WORK FOR A CHANGE
Business Men Want Republicans
in Power.
All Through the Country They Are
Tired of Continued Democratic
lncompetency-New System of
Protection Must BE Devised.

The recent meeting of business men
in New York looking to the return
Of the Republican party to power is
noteworthy as a symptom. As mat
tiers stand. business is disgruntled
toward the Democracy. No one
branch of business, but all branches
Manufacturing has in mind the On
derwood tariff, which has crippled or
closed up many plants Banking is
not sure about the new currency
law, which has yet to prove itself.
Corporations are puzzled about the
new trust cnactments, which, in the
hands of lawyers entirely great, may
mean much or nothing For one or
all of these reasons depression is al
most unprecedented, and, naturally,
business men are figuring en- a
change, and organizing to speed the
day
A word about the tariff. Business
interests. as always, want protec-
ton. They have prof1ted by it. and
desire the restoration of that pol
icy. They will get it If. and when.
the party of protection resumes full
control of the government.
But, while there will be a return to
that policy specifically. there will
not, because there cannot, be a re-
turn to any past particular express
sion of it. That is to say, protection,
as expressed in law for this time
or any time soon, could not follow
the lines of the Mckinley law, the
D1ngley law. or the Payne law. The
conditions under which and for which
those measures were shaped do not
now exist, and will not be restored.
If the Republican party is again COM
missioned to write a tariff law it
must make it conform to the existing
conditions.
And the protection must be con-
sentative and symmetrical. A Chi
nese wall is not necessary anywhere
now. Many of our industries have
hourished to that extent they do not
require the rates they needed at the
start, and some can Co without any
protection at all. This was true IA
years ago, as Mr.. Mckinley, in what
proved to be his last public speech,
pointed out at Buffalo.

BOOM DAYS IN PlTTSBURG
Old Shelters are Busy and New
Plants are Contemplated Because
of Zinc Demand.

The old smelter days are back in
Pittsburg. The zinc boom in the Jop
lin district has teen followed by re-
vival of the industry which gave Pitts
burg its standing as an Industrial cen
ter twenty-five years ago. Shelter
men who moved to the gas belt fifteen
years ago are returning to the Pitts
burg district. Rants, long idle, again
are running seven days a week.
The Joplin Ore and Spelter Com
pany opened the old North shelters
at Pittsburg several weeks ago under
z lease. The plant had not been oper-
ated for nine years. One hundred and
fifty men are employed there, and
eight furnaces are being added.
The Pittsburg Zinc Company resum-
ed operations of it's smelter plant sew
eral weeks ago. Work is in progress
on additional blocks of furnaces there.
The smelter at Bruce, near Cherokee,
also was opened few weeks ago. The
construction of two or three new
smelter plants Immediately is antici-
pated.
Coal operators and coal miners are
enthusiastic over the prospects. The
demand for coal has been slow and the
mines have been working irregularly.
