new STATE BUILDINGS
Plans for Work at Institutions in
Seven Towns

1
! Plans for improvements and con-
struction of new buildings at state in
stitutions in Emporia, Hays, Winfield,
Parsons, Dodge City, Norton and
Larned have been gotten under way
recently by Charles Chandler, state
architect.
/ OF the buildings to be constructed,
probably the most pretentious will be
| the new $4,000 administration
| building to be erected at the Emporia
State Normal school. In this building
are to be situated the general offices
of the school, and the preliminary
plans include an auditorium having a
seating capacity for about 5000 per-
sons.
The new Russ hall at the Safe Man
ual Training Normal school at Pitts
burg the administration building, has
been completed and re-equipped and
will be completely occupied at the be-
ginning of the regular fall term, Sep
TENDER IA part of the structure was
occupied during the summer session
and during the latter part OF the
spring term. The rebuilt structure.
takes the place of the old Russ hall
which was destroyed by fire June ~,
1914 Citizens of PittSburS subscribed
more than 100000 to loan to the
state and work on rebulldlnS was De-
gun Immediately. The last legislature
made appropriation to take up the
loan, which made without interest.
Sheridan Hall. Fort Hays Kansas
Normal school, is to cost SIUU,ooV anu
will he constructed of native yellow
limestone and reinforced concrete and
will also be equipped with every mod
ern facility.
The state hospital at Parsons is to
have a new building, to be erected
next wear. at a cost of $4,000, while
the legislature recently appropriated
$4,000 for improvements at the state
hospital for tuberculosis at Norton
An appropriation of S2,504 was MADE
to erect a new building at the state
hospital at Winfield, to complete
building now under construction and
to make minor improvements The
state hospital at Larned received $40
600 for a new cottage and $4,000 for
new kitchen
Before the meeting of the next legis-
lature it is estimated that the prop
erty of the state, at its various lns1tu-
tions, will have been improved by the
expenditure of more than one-half
million dollars.

LOSSES ARE CUT DOWN.
Scmi-Annual Meeting of Santa Fe Men
at Wichita, September %.

f. c. Maegley of Chicago, assistan.
general freight agent of the Santa F'e
railway and secretary of that system S
loss and damage committee, is mere
today making arrangements for the
semi-annual loss and damage meeting
at Wichita September %. This move
ment was organized in Topeka six
years ago for the purpose of eliminat-
ing the causes for loss and damage to
freight shipments by a scheme of CO.
operation between the railway COM
pany and the shippers.
The success of the plan is apparent
from Mr.. Maegley's report, which
shows that in 1908 the Santa Fe paid
out 2.53 per cent of its freight earn
ings for losses and damage, while in
1915 only 80 per cent.
A large number of officials from To-
peka, Chicago, and points on the
western, Gulf and coast lines of the
Santa Fee will attend the meeting.

He WANTS 10000 COWS
Creamery Man Plans to Buy Dairy
stock in Kansas.

Dairy farmers and breeders of dairy
herds in Kansas face wonderful ave
nue. of prosperity, according to J. G.
MohIer, secretary of the state board
Of agriculture. Mohler believes the
Kansas dairyman will soon become
one of the states most established in
stitutions and will rank with the bum
per wheat and corn crops and the
kansas helpful hen in producing
wealth.
quest from w r. DIN, agricultural
commissioner of the Denver & Rio
Grande railway, asking that wesley
King of Salt Lake City, Utah, be
placed in touch with prominent Kan
sas dairymen. King is director of the
Mutual Creamery company in Salt
Lake City His company is planning
to buy dairy cows in car lots. The
creamery company is in the market
for twenty thousand cows.
Here is an opportunity for those
who may have cows to sell and it is
also a suggestion of why kansans
should pay more attention to upbulld-
ing their dairy herds and breeding
stock" said Secretary Mohler.
LAS time passes dairying is bound
to become increasingly more impOr-
tant and Kansas should be in position
to meet the demand for pure-breds
and high-grades that is sure to come
from the west and southwest in the
future, as the, industry develops in
these sections. Inc greatest success
in agriculture in the dry-farming re-
gions can be had only in conjunction
with live stock, and the call for dairy
animals will likely be quite insistent
from those portions of the country
especially. Kansas is logically located
to get this trade.
Whether the business comes to
Kansas or not depends upon whether
the Kansas farmer and stockman is
prepared for it. 1t is an opportunity
that Kansas should grasp. This
means that breeders and others must
upbuild and maintain their herds. To
deplete our supplies by selling off
foundation stock now would be short
sighted. Now is the time to carefully
conserve the best animals for breed
ing purposes, to be ready to perma-
nently participate in the big business
that seems to come from the west and
southwest for dairy stock. Kansas
should be prepared to get her share
of this. 1t is another avenue to pros
perity opened up to our stockmen."

threshed, especially in portions of the
Ohio valley and Kansas, and COM
plants of damaged grain continued.
In Kansas threshing IS only about hall
finished.
Soil conditions generally are good.
Flowing is progressing satisfactorily
except in portions of the Ohio Valley
and locally in other sections where it
is too wet.
Warmer weather and more sunshine
greatly benefited corn in most of the
belt and the crop made good advance
ment. Further reports indicate con-
siderable damage in the northern por-
tons by frost near the close of the
preceding week.

YEARS BEST WEEK
Splendid Weather and Crop
Conditions i'm State.
Weather Bureau Summary In
dicateS Great Yield.

| Following is the summary of wealth
er and crop conditions in the corn and
wheat region and in Kansas for the
week ending September z, issued by
the section center of the United States
weather bureau at Topeka:
This was one of the most favorable
weeks of the season in Kansas.
There was more sunshine and less
rain the first five days than there has
been during any other week this year,
which was greatly needed for all crops
and farm work. Temperatures were
below normal until Sunday, but not
enough to interfere with crop growth
materially. Light showers were gen
eral Sunday night and in the south
eastern counties phenomenally heavy
rains were reported Monday and Mon
day night.
Corn made very satisfactory growth,
but is still behind the season consid-
erably and in danger of damage from
an early frost except in the extreme
southern counties, where the early
planted is about matured and cutting
has begun.
Much Threshing Done.
Threshing was general in all parts
season and the weather favored rapid
progress. In the southern counties the
greater part of it is done; in the north
err counties not more than half is
finished; while in the northwestern
quarter of the state it is just getting
well started.
In the eastern portion the yields are
fair to good, but the western counties
generally report that they are salts
factory both as to quality and guam
tity
Harvesting is still going on in the
north central counties, but the wheat
is lodged badly and the fields so weedy
the grain is hardly worth the time IT
takes to secure it.
Much fall blowing has been done
with the soil in fine condition except
in some sOuth-central and southwest
ern counties, where it is a little too
dry.
Other Crops Promising.
Putting up the third crop of alfalfa
is nearly finished and making prai-
RE hay has been general The latter
crop promises to be one of the largest
ever harvested in the state.
Forage crops are growing nicely but
are late.
Apples, grapes and peaches are
plentiful. Picking the large crop of
Jonathan apples has begun as far
north as Wichita and will be general
next week.
1t was a fine week for late gardens
Tomatoes ripened rapidly.
Broomcorn harvest has begun in the
western part of the state.
Much Wheat Yet Unthreshcd.
The summary of the weather and
crop conditions in the corn and wheat
region for the week ending Sept. 7.
for the entire country follows:
The past week was highly favora-
BILE, throughout the spring wheat belt
where harvesting of large crop of
excellent quality progressed uninter-
ruptedly. In the winter wheat belt
good progress was made with delayed
threshing, but much remains un-
