A Few Reminders.

lIr. Hayes was asked if Dayenp0rt's

port rather than affection for Rock Is
land. He was reminded that such evil
6aHces of brotberly love by both Dav-
export ana Moline were entirely want

time when it might have been Of
some use and during which period
neither city. seemed to care very much
whether Rock island joined them or

ert years circuit was being made up,
il was pointed out that Tearuey never
came to Rock Island or did anything
else TO arrange for baseball here, but
instead remained at distance, lam
aas.a5 the town whenever he had a
chance and even went so far as to in
suit men of prominence here who had
been connected with baseball in other
years.
Egr. Hayes was reminded, too, Of the

For one horripilatins instant COLI.
sion seemed unavoidable. . Barcus and
Judith and the motorcycle occupied
most Of the width Of the road: there
was little room between them and tho
declivity. less between them and the
forest. To try to pass them on the
latter side would be only to dash his
brains out against the trees; while to
make the attempt on the outside would
be to risk leaving the road altogether
and dashing on into space
And 1t was impossible to stop the
cycle-so brief was all his warning.
In desperation Alan chose the outside
Of the road: and for the space of
single heartbeat thought that he might
possibly make 1t. but with the next
realized that he would not-seeing the

the slope.
At this he acted sharply and upon
sheer instinct. AS the cycle left the
road altogether he risked a broken
knee by releasing his grasp of the
handlebars and Strengthening out his
leg and driving 1t down forcibly
against the roadbed. The effect OF this
was to lift him bodily from the sad.

become acutely evident. The least
courtesy which, circumstances now

to cloud the countenance Of Alan's
betrothed.
Nor. indeed. was Rose altogether
destitute OF plausible excuse for this
feeling. It was undeniable that b.

hardships they had Of late suffered
In common. It was undeniable-but

goes direct to the house of representa-
tives, where it will undoubtedly be
recognized as an ingenious and effec-
tive method of boosting interest in
high reproduction among the corn
growers of this state. When it has
finally passed the lower house the
program of the contest will be turned
oover to Secretary j. Q. Mohler of the
state board of agriculture, from whose
office it will be directed.
1t is senator Nighswonger of Wich-
ita who deserves credit for originating
the Kansas State Corn contest. Sena-
tor Nighswonger is a farmer by proxy
He is an extensive owner of city and
rural real estate in his home county
and he is a close student of the needs
of the farmers of Kansas. He believes
that the secret of the future prosperity
of the state lies in the direction of
greater production per acre and he
believes the best way to get it is to
make it worth while to the producers
to bring that production about.
He made a speech about production
and food shortages and the necessity
for getting more out of the ground
than has been gotten in past year
when his resolution was up for con-
sideration this morning, quoting emf
nent authorities to show that the
American people are eating more of
their own produce and selling less
abroad than they ever did before anil
that such a tendency has been in
creasingly apparent for a number of
years.
Poor Old Advisers.
Other senators spoke with enthusi-
aSm for the idea.
This corn contest will be worth
more than all the farm advisers you
can crowd into a county, declared
Senator King of Cowley, who is a
friend of the farmer but not. of the
farm adviser.
