FROM THE HAYS MORTAL.

The honey locust tree of Western
Kansas which heretofore has been
free from insect pests has during
the past Two or three years been bad
ly infected with bores- Investiga-
tions made by Prof. l.. d. Wooster at
tile Fort Hays Normal have Indicated
that there are two ways OF combating
the borer:
no matter how valuable it may be, it
is no economy to try to save iI be-
cause il merely serves as breeding
center from which the other trees
will become infested, 1t must be cut
down and burned and the sooner the
better.
End White wash the bark of the
other honey locust trees to prevent
the female insects from laying their
eggs thereon
The white wash formula is as fol-
lows:
all the washing soda it will hold.
2 To the above add one gallon of
soft soap for which laundry soap dis
solved in a gallon of hot water can be
substituted.
3 Next add one pint of crude car
bolfc acid. Mix thoroughly.
In four gallons OF water Stake
enough lime TO make thick white
wash. Pour this into the above
s. Add one-half pound of Paris
Green and mix thoroughly.
The young people of Western Kan
sas are studying more music than
ever before. As an evidence of this
the music faculty of the only state

reputation of making the Fort Hays
Normal the musical Mecca of West
ern Kansas which Prof. H. E MallOy,
head of the department of music,
las made during these fifteen months
has brought to him an offer from a
university to head its department of
music at a salary somewhere between
$4,000 and $500. But Professor NAL
10y has definitely refused the offer.
There will be three new members
of the faculty of the department of
music at the Fort Hays Normal this

Mrs. Malloy will be the professor Of
violin.
Students in the department Of
music viii sing in the oratOrio. THE

they will take part in Faust, the

A Cure For Bloat

Recently it has been found that formalin is an efficient rem ed for animals suffering from bloat. This should be gwen as soon as possible after the ami mals are noticed sto be in pain and the left side greatly distend- ed. Reuminants, such as sheep and cattle, are most frequently affected. Cows should be dren- ched with quart of water, to which has been added 40 cubic centimeters of formalin-this is one-quarter of a cup, or about three tablespoons. One-fourth of this amount is sufficient for sheep. Relif usually comes in- side of 20 minutes, and there are no bad effects following, such as the results from the use of the trocar and canula, or sticking" with a knife. R. H.

Montgomery County, in the old ck-ribbed hghtariff
state OF Penrose and Quay has been receiving much free pub
city recently by virtue of the activity of organization
which calls itself the Manufacturers Association of Montgom
cry County Last December the association letter
President Wilson appealing for reief from what it claimed
to be the effects of the new tariff In the of that and
subsequent communications the officers of the
sale of their manufactures and consequent Unemployment
labor in the erswhe prosperous industrial section of Mont
gomey county, describing its present condition nothing
than rgtenng and laying the entire blame the door
the democratic tariff policy without much quaver of
doubt.
Upon receipt of this letter the president directed Secretary
of Commerce Reded to investigate and benefit
of the reports of his experts.
Montgomery County has population of 10000 and its
principal industry the manufacture of hosiery Thirty
manufacturing plants examined, which included list
twenty furnished by the manufacturers association
found that within the year the number of employees
these establishments had fallen from $3.50 to 4629a reuc-
ton of 76 Nearly the whole of the number of reduc-
only three of the eight belonged lines of industry
directly affected by the tariff AS these three engaged
the manufacture of priced hosiery and the oareducions
their plants amounted to 49, virtually two thirds of the
whole number thrown out the relation of the tariff the
hosiery industry calls for investigation and he following
graph encloses very interesting figures
In the first place. there has been little in
crease in the importation of cheap cotton hosiery since
the enactment of the tariff. The total importa
ton of cotton hosiery in the fiscal years 1910 1911
1872 1913 was $5,800000 $2700000, respectively; in
the fiscal year 1914 it So 100000 of this
more than ST 1000 hosiery of expensive grades
In the second half of the calendar year 1914 the i'm
portation of hosiery amounted to only 100000 On

A WISE HEAD IN ARGUMENT,

Secretary of State Barker utilities his massive intellect in
his Standpoint paper in showing that Governor Alexander
didn't save the million dollars he promised the taxpayers the
state but that he broke promises when he saved it. that
the republican state senate saved the million dollars which
wasn't saved at ALL that the governor to make the
saving only by stopping expenditure that the republicans
wanted to make but that it wasn't much of accomplishment
after ALL nasmuch the republicans didn't spend it;
anybody could have saved much by the simple
of not spending it, but that Alexander promised to do more
than he could do although he did it, that in saving million
he had to adopt an mpecunous policy because he didn't do
the saving which done by the republican senate by
finance committee comprised of three republicans two
democrats that the two democrats not entitled to any
dit because they forced the three republicans re-
ducons or to refuse to do and that the expenditures
not reduced any and the governor failed completely in
the mpecunous policy that he has forced state to adopt
because it voluntarily adopted by the republican senate
wherefore is outrageous for the governor to pont with
PRIDE because he has to break of the commandments
which he observed in doing what he failed to do All of which
shows that there other intellect state massive as
that of the great secretary of staeBoe Capital News

The claims of the Montgomery County Manufacturers

There to be disagreement among journals of
the state to what Governor Alexander has saved the tax
payers. The greatest disagreement is found in republican
ranks For instance in last weeks issue of the Globe the
grudging estimate of saving of approximately $50 900
admitted and that pretty fair for the Globe which adj
mits anything which looks bad to republican dominance
less forced to do Again reading recent issue of the
Wood River Weekly Times, that paper admits saving of
million dollars Here what the Wood River Weekly Times
says:
Governor Alexander has reduced the appropria-
tons for Deficiencies and for the penal the charitable
and the educational institutions by $16493179; also
the $4,000 appropriated to carry the workmen's
compensation act into effect
''Whe the people will approve of the reductions
they will regret that the governor has fit to veto
the appropriation which necessary coroary to
the compensation act The workngmen entitled
to compensation for INJURIES the business and the
manufacturers not only willing to pay them but
DESTROYS of knowing how much they will be expected
to pay and the taxpayers anxously looking to the
relief which the act would offer them All will now
be disappointed.
both the legislature and the governor have given
the taxpayers square deal, this time. Excepting the
$4,000 involved in the compensation act, the reduc
tons by the governor-$16 ,931. 79-and by the egis
lature-$792 402 76-approximate ST 100000 in round

nor promised, but when he gave the pledge he proba
bly, did not realize that governor he would not be

Idaho is growing and administration costs are
bound to increase; but they increasing too rapid
ly. 1t is therefore well that the appropriations are

Now have not given the termination the Globe for

that the Times estimate it gives the legislature credit
