Investigation Of alleged graft in sup

tinued tomorrow. Samuel j. Reid, As

Quoting the inquiry. Half dozen more
arrests are expected soon among per-
sons involved in the case against
Thomas j. White. Of the Brooklyn
Steamship and Hotel Supply Company,
ard Walter G. Roaehe, a steward OF the
battleship Texas.
The graft is described as similar to
that of chefs end buffers who get
rake OF" on sales 70 their employers.

doubt, however. that grating has been
going or for years, and not only has
the government been robbed in paying
for short weight. but it has had to pay
a rake Off Of from TO 10 per cent on

FARMERS ARE LEAVING
Educational Campaign Is Producing
Valuable Results.

Education among farmers in KAN
sas is producing real results, accord
ing to a bulletin issued this week by
Edward o. Johnson, superintendent
of institutes and demonstration for the
state Agricultural college, Manhattan
The bulletin has just been issued by
the state printer.
In his discussion of the campaign
among farmers. johnson mentions the
fight against the Hessian fly. In one
county where a campaign against the
fIy was conducted, the college was
able to interest but 10 per cent OF
the farming population during the
first year The second year, more
than 70 per cent of the farmers were
studying habits of the fly and eager
to learn the most approved method
of determination. Now, Johnson be-
lieves. there are few boys and girls in
the district who do not understand the
secret of the fight against the insect
I'm adjacent counties where no
such campaigns have been conducted,
there is often dense ignorance as TO
the insect says the Johnson report
striking results after campaigns for
the prevention of chinch bugs, grass
