new STATE BOILER
No State House Heat or Light for
Weeks to Make Repairs.

After an all summer elaboration,
the state is now convinced that some
cold weather may visit Kansas next
winter. So preparations are being
made to install a new boiler at the
state heating plant.
AS a consequence, there will be no
heat and no light at the state house
during the next two or three weeks.
There will likewise be no power for
the elevators and everyone will wait
till the repairs are made. For two
months this summer the state house
was virtually closed while heads of de-
partments were on their vacations.
They have just returned to their work
and the state has resumed its regular
business. Now the engineer at the
state heating plant will shutdown for
two weeks and the state house will
await the making of the repairs that
should have been installed several
months ago.
What happy, care free world this
would be if everyone handled their
private business as the state handles
public affairs" remarked an indi-
vidual at the state house today. cat
the end of the first month everyone
would be in the hands of a receiver"

STUDENTS PAY OWN WAY.
Statistics Show That Those Who Work
Rank at Head of Glass.

Lawrence, Kan, Sept. 25.-Of the
nearly fifteen thousand students at
tending the eight institutions under
the control of the state, more than
half are paying all or a part of their
expenses. The men are employed in
janitor service, washing dishes at
boarding clubs, working laundry
routes on a commission, delivering
papers, moving lawns, cleaning off
sidewalks and a hundred other like
jobs, while the women are employed
as stenographers, table walters, sew
ing, assisting with homework, etc.
Statistics gathered by the board of
educational administration of the state
show that these students who do work
outside of school are among the best
in class work and have more ability
in meeting people and taking part in
social and religious affairs than the
others.
AS an incentive to study, each in
stitution is collecting data yearly in
regard to the collective scholarship
of each organization. Almost every
student is a member of some fra
ternity, debating society, or club and
the results show a marked increase in
the scholarship during the past two
years.

OLD WHEAT MAKES BEST SEED.
1918 Grain Used for Seeding Should

Manhattan, Kan, Sept. 25--Old
wheat that has been carefully stored
will make better seed than most of
the wheat that has been harvested
this summer, according to L. E. Call
professor of agronomy in the Kansas
State Agricultural college.
There is in most communities,
said Mr.. Call, sufficient old wheat
for seed. Where this grain has been
properly stored it will make good seed
and should as far as possible be
planted. New wheat should not be
planted unless it has been tested and
is definitely known to be good
A termination test can be easily
made. The wheat may be planted for
