Two additional disappointments

have already lamented the with
drawal from their circle OF Miss
Edith Blair and Miss Dorothea Ere
mont Smith. Miss Roberta Wiley,
daughter OF Commander and Mrs.

among the buds OF this season, as has

son, as has been anticipated, is Miss

will go to New York shortly to be
the guest OF Mrs. Bradish Johnson,

DIVERSITY OF FARM
ENTERPRISES BEST

In most cases where studies on the
profits in farming have been made,
particularly in our oldesct agricultural
districts, such studies Indicate that
the most successful farms are those
which have from two to four major
sources of income; /. e., they have
a we'll balanced and diversified busi-
ness. In certain instances it may pay
better to have only one enterprise,
but usually when one crop pays bet
ter than all others the production
of it increases rapidly and soon the
price falls to the point where other
crops or products are equally as prof
table. Diversified farming is often
confused with farming where there is
little of everything and not much
of anything Either extreme lessons
the chances of success. When the
price of certain crops is very low
then live stock usually becomes desir-
able However, if the returns per ami
NAL are poor, cash crops even at a
low price are essential. A well bal
anced business insures against losses
and provides a much better utilization
of labor and equipment.

PREPARE AGAINST
CHOLERA OUTBREAK

To wait until cholera is in neigh
borhood before taking preventive mea-
sures is a shortsighted policy. No
farmer with lot of money tied up in
hogs should take such chances. A
systematic neighborhood campaign
in anticipation of a possible out
break bespeaks wisdom on the part
Of the farmers interested.
This is being done in many parts
of the state. 1t has been demonstrated
that such measures can be made eff
fective. While visiting in Leaven-
worth County recently we learned
that farmers meeting had just been
held and which was participated in
by men from Leavenworth and Atchi-
son Counties. A veterinarian from the
Kansas Agricultural College was pres
ent. Pledges were received from far
mers owning 300 hogs in Leaven-
worth County, that. they would vac
cinate and follow the instructions CIV
en- Where sufficiently large groups
are thus pledged the state is sending,
free of charge, competent man to
do the necessary vaccination work.
Down in Linn County the hog chol-
era prevention club organized by the
county bureau of that county under
the direction of County Agent Peck,
has been doing excellent work in
keeping that county free from the
disease So successful have they been
in this work that a call for help
has come across the line from Bour-
bon County which is without coun-
ty agent and has no farm bureau.
In Linn County serum has been kept
in storage at LaCygne and distribut-
ed as needed.
This hog cholera work has kept the
county agent of Linn County busy
seven days of the week. Since Sep
tember SIT hogs have been vaccin-
ated with the serum-alone treatment
and eight post mortem demonstrate
tions have been given SO that farmers
could better acquaint themselves with
this dread disease. OF the hogs vacc1-
mated with the serum alone sixteen
well herds were in close proximity
to herds where cholera was raging.
None of these hogs was taken sick,
while entire herds not vaccinated |
have died.-Kansas Farmer.

FOREST NOTES

More than 500 mineral claims were
patented within the national forests
during the fiscal year 1915.
Within the national forest boundar-
les are some 81 million acres in pri-
vate ownership, consisting of lands
granted or taken up for one purpose
or another before the forests were
created or of homestead entries made
since.
OF the 10,905 timber sales made on
the forests last year, 10,621 were for
amounts less than $100 each.
Up to June 30, 1915, the national
forest reservation commission, in ac-
cordance with the act of March l.,
1911, commonly known as the Weeks
law, had approved the purchase of
1,317,551 acres of lands within the
and White mountains
These lands will be administered as
national forests.
On July 1, 1915, the force employed
by the forest service numbered 1875
OF these. about 3,275 were employed
upon the national forests as supervi-
sors, deputy supervisors, rangers,
guards. ETC., and 500 were engaged in
scientific and clerical
work at the Washington and seven
district headquarters.
