Where the People
 May Have Hearing
A WORD OF APPRECIATION

To the Editor of The Republican.
 Sir: My conscience and my sense of duty will be relieved and con doned if l write you a word of ap- preciation this morning.
 Of course. I realize that an editor is un-human and impersonaI. un- sentimental and flinty; nevertheless I have not been fair to you nor tc myself. In my travels over two states, I make it my business to meet the editors and tell them how much I like them or dislike them. This I have not done in Phoenix, so. for the first time here, I sincerely thank you for the many good and helpful editorials on so many diff ferent phases of life's problems.
 The one this morning, in connec- ton with the one the other day on the good man with too much senti- ment who interferes with the author ities and the law to secure the re lease of the man who has broken :he prohibition law. were to the point If all good people could dis criminate a little better we would have less disregard for the laws by the bad people
 The, editorials on the war. both in Europe and in Mexico. have been as good as the best; in a few cases high up above the average. I think they have helped, more than you may know. to keep our Arizona cit izens sane and poised.
 Keep on writing good things and continue the literary matter on the editorial page. Some of us read it and appreciate it. even if we are careless about saying SO Just be patient you may do something we do not approve some morning. You will hear from us then before the paper is dry. Sincerely. F. D. RAL1EY. Phoenix, Sept r.

 But the number of churches a community does not much number of Sunday school scholars, for the Sunday school has come to be regarded the efficiency of the church to which is attached It proves that the church is worth while: that it has not been asleep for sleeping churches are not productive of Sunday schools

This industry today is among the most
Important, especially IN the New hng.
land states and New York. Millions
Of dollars are invested In immense ~
Adjustments consuming millions Of
bushels Of kafir, milo and feterita,
nearly all Of which is made into poul-
try feed mixtures. II Ii almost lmpos
sible TO think Of poultry feeds without
thinking Of kafir or milo. These two
grains have become the very founda-
ton Of poultry feeds and their popu-
larity is ON the increase. Some manu-
fRcturers use as much as thirty-fiye
per cent OF kafir and milo In their
feeds, this proportion Of course being

RELIARILIrY OF RLOOD VALUE

The value Of pure bred livestock on
the farm seems 10 grow with greater
certainty than crop production from
year to year. The lack VI fertility In
the soil may make It impossible to
make a good yield Of grain even when
weather conditions are favorable.
Weather conditions may be such that
ever the most fertile soil will come
up short on production at the end OF
the year, But the performance Of a

Improving Kafir Types

There has never been the definite
care taken in the selection Of seed for
kafirCOrn or any Of the kafirs that
there should have been. When you
think there can be added In one year
or NO Of seed selection, ten, twenty or
thirty bushels TO the acre on a kufir
crop you are doomed to disHppoint,
mcnt II you try It out. II In n period
Of five or six years the yielding cnpnc
ity Of kaflrcorn may be raised ten or
fifteen per cent we will do as much
or more than was ever done for corn.
There IL something real In better seed
and seed selection. The Oklahoma
Farm Journal has gone to the trouble
to work out n typical head and make
a good score card, which has been
accepted by most kaflr authorities
over the west and is now used by the
A. h NJ. College Of Oklahoma, but we
have never made any unreasonable
claims about what It will do. We
know that It will pay and that some
thing Of the kind has to be settled
upon, but II ia new and men working
at II are now-in the sense OF having
long experience in work, compared to

There has been more kahrcOrn grain

Folks need to get their information
Il little stralghter about what these
kafir crops will do under deficient
rainfall. These crops will make Il fine

inches II rain comes at the right time
and OF sufficient quantity. And the
fact that It has done that, is what has
cost us so many bushels from thick
planting.
People have refused to stop long
enough to think seriously about the
problem OF production under short or
irregular rainfall conditions. Good
seed will not do It all. The greatest
limiting factor Is moisture.

the rainfall was below the average

It was the fact that the number Of

That IL, that there were just ~ many

This fact IL what brought US up

on the practice Of planting In alternate

II on the farm We had figured that
the feeding area allotted to each stalk
determined It's chances for making Il
yield under limited moisture cOndl
tions. That conclusion seemed 80 logl
cal, that after making It, we gave up
the consideration Of the wider rows for
II year or two. In 1911 we had kafir
In seven foot rows and some In three
and a half foot rows. The wide rows
made a whole lot more per acre, and
they were all planted with the same
planter. From this fact we drew the
conclusion that had we put the amount
VI seed In the two rows that We had
In the one row there would have bcen
the same yield there was In the one
row We have proceeded on this
theory since, with better heads and
hotter yield than the thicker planting
of former years. But to have the
