After reading of the work being done

feet that conferences between officials of
the two local railway companies are be-

issued last night by George Z. Hamilton,
president Of the Capital Traction Com

The story stated that a unifcation of
the two street railways probably would
be effected at the next session of Con-
Sress and that with this end in view
conferences were being held between the
two companies and officials of the Public
Utilities Commission.
Il was utterly surprised when I saw
the story said Mr. Hamilton, laugh

the directors of the Capital Traction
Company have given any consideration at

work. The farm bureau requires mem
bership fee of not less than SlO0, and
with this fee and the money received
from the Nation, the State and from the
county, the bureau can easily be financed.
Not only the State and the Nation,
therefore, are cooperating in conducting
extension work in agriculture and home
economics in an extensive way throughout
the State OF Kansas, but counties are
cooperating with them for more intensive
educational work of this kind, in the
various counties having farm bureaus.
Already there are ten counties in Kan
sas with farm bureaus and county agricul-
tural agents, and four districts with dis
trict agricultural agents. Federal and
State funds are still available for five or
six new bureaus in 1915. Those counties
which first make application are first
served. As the Federal appropriation will
increase by $l2,l30 each year ror the next
seven years, ii the State will increase its
appropriation by an equal amount, the
number of farm bureaus and county
agents undoubtedly will increase from
wear to year also until the great majority
of the counties in the State will be thus

supplied. AS these bureaus cooperate
closely with institutes, farmers unions,
oranges, other farmers organizations,
schools and churches, the machinery for
effective cooperative work in making the
principles of agriculture and home eco
Monies available to the masses of the
people will then be in shape.
What May Be Accomplished
What may then be accomplished may be
illustrated in small way by the reports
of the farm bureaus and agricultural
agents for the year 1914. During that
time an average of eleven men was at
work. Of these, four were district agents
working in an average area of seven coun-
ties each, the other county agents in one
county each backed by farm bureau.
These men visited 2,755 farmers on
their own farms to consult with them in
regard to their farming operations, and
had 2224 personal calls at their offices and
approximately 5000 telephone calls on
official business. They were active in farm
ers' meetings and addressed 800 with an
attendance of 48,414, They organized

the can.
Bacteria grow best in foods containing
nitrogen, such as meat, fish, eggs, peas,
beans and especially in warm wealth
er. Bacteria do not grow fast in sweet sub
stances, while yeasts develop very rapidly
in SUCH Some vegetable foods contain SO
much acid that very few bacteria or yeast
attack them, as lemons, cranberrles and
rhubarb.
So it comes about that canned fruits are
more commonly spoiled by yeast than bac-
terra. When fruits are preserved with large
amounts of sugar they need not be her
metically sealed to protect them from BAG
terra and yeasts, since the thick syrup is
not favorable to their growth. However,
these are best put UP in small selt-seallng
Jars, because mold grows freely on moist
sugary substances exposed to the air.
Every housekeeper is familiar with molds
which during warm and moist weather
grow upon all sorts of starchy materials,
such as boiled potatoes, bread, mush, etc,
as we'll as fresh canned and preserved fruits.
Molds grow from spores, which are always
floating in the air. When spore settles
on suitable article of food it sends out
fine thread which branches out and works
its way over and into the substance. At
first it seems white or light gray and can
hardly be seen, but soon the mold becomes
colored, and under a microscope looks like
a beautiful flower garden. These spores

Over hundred years ago Frenchman
first made practical application of the meth

ties or cans, which he Theoretically sealed
He then put the full bottles or cans IN
water and boiled them. At that time, and
even until recent years, it was thought that
the oxygen of the air caused the decompo-
stion of food Scientists have proven that
it is not the oxygen which causes fermenta-
ton and putrefaction, but bacteria and other
small plant growths. So, while Appert's
theory of the cause of the spelling OF food
was incorrect, yet the world owes him
debt of gratitude, since his method of pre-

Bacteria and yeast exist in the air. in the

small that they can be seen only by aid OF

SO rapidly that it has been estimated that

hours To grow it is necessary to have
moisture, warmth and proper food.
Yeasts, which are also one-celled, grow
less rapidly. A bud develops, breaks off
and forms new yeast plant.
Spelling of food is caused by the develop
ment OF bacteria or yeast. Most germs re-

largely in conducting extension schools in

Quoting demonstrations in agriculture and
home economics throughout the State,
and in supporting county agents and farm
bureaus. Nor did the Legislature stop
with this. 1t further enacted law which
makes it possible for counties to appro-

in agriculture through farm bureaus and
agricultural agents.
Plan of Organization.
Any county that will organize farm
bureau consisting of not less than twenty
five per cent of the farmers of the county,
or as many as $50 farmers, will receive not
less than $500 nor more than $1,000 per
year from Federal and State funds appro-
priated to the Kansas State Agricultural
College to help pay the salary OF county
agricultural agent. When this is done the
county commissioners of the county itself
are required to appropriate not less than
$500 and not more than $1,000 toward the
support of the county agricultural agent
and the farm bureau which backs up his

ZONE one has figured out that if every
boy in the country would eat tive
- apples day for the next three months
it would require all the apples which have
been produced in the country this year and
would insure fair price to the grocers
Another thing about this boy-apple COM
binaton is that it is just as good for the boy
as it is for the apple market Five apples
a day will merely keep the boys digestive
organs in good working order.
The common fruits, because of their low
nutritive value, are not as a rule estimated
at their real worth as food Fruit and fruit
juice supply great variety of flavors and
keep the blood in a healthy condition.
Nowhere is there greater need OF gen
erous supply of fruit than on the farm,
where the diet is apt to be restricted in va
riety because of the distance from markets.
The home canning of fruits and vegeta-
bles is matter of more Importance to those
who grow such products than to those who
must buy them The cost of labor and
fuel added to the cost of the raw materials,
make it wiser for many to buy the canned
article.
Aside from the value as food for the fam
ily is the convenience of canned fruits and
vegetables for emergency luncheons. The
city woman who can send to the corner
grocer need not worry, but the woman in
the country where the grocer is miles away
needs to prepare for times of siege
The essential points in all canning are
few-absolute cleanliness, sterilization and
suitable containers, which means the de-
