TO ORGANIZE A COUNTY BREED
ERS' ASSOCIATION

Leading breeders thruout the Unit
ed States have planned to organize q
county breeders Organization in >ey-
cry county. Owners of all classes OF
stock are to be represented. Repre-
sentatives of the different county as
sociations will be Joined in national
breeders association with headquar-
tiers in Kansas City,. These breeders
will decide on lectures and demon
STATIONS of an educational nature
that can be staged here in our own
county. e.
1t will be necessary for our breed
ers here in this county to organize.
The. plan is to elect director from
each township SO that all of the coun-
ty will be represented. These direc-
tors will practically have the man.
|agement of the association. The date
set for the organization is Saturday,
January 10, at 2 p. m. at the court
house.
Such an organization can secure
good lecturers on live stock subjects
from our agricultural college extern
sion department free of charge. An
other important feature of the plans
is to hold public sales of the better
classes of live stock and assist our
people In securing better breeding
stock. The educational features con-
nected with this organization land at
very little cost should appeal to ev-
cry farmer and breeder in the county.
In order to maintain the fertility of
the soil live stock is necessity. In
order to make live stock business
successful better information must be
had, better blood must be used, and
both made effective thru proper man
agement. If one will visit the lead
ing public markets of this country he
will be impressed with the idea that
very poor system of mating and de-
veloping is practiced by great many
American farmers. A lot of stock is
being produced and marketed at a
loss. Successful breeders tell us that
practically all kinds of live stock can
be produced in this section at good
profit.
All those interested in live stock
should get busy Immediately and talk
to others with view of having them
present on the the big national or
ganization day, January 10. Don't
forget the date.

WOMEN PRISONERS LIKE COL
LEGE WORK

Women inmates of the Kansas
state penitentiary have been enrolled
in home economics by correspondence
insthe division of extension in the
Kansas State Agricultural college.
More than 200 men in Kansas pris-
ons are doing work under the super
vision of the home study department,
but the association of these women
with the college is an innovation in
educational practices.
Since last April the women have
been on farm belonging to the peni-
Tertiary reservation. 1t is surround
ed by IL wire barbed fence, but I'M
der the supervision of Mrs. Julia A.
Perry, formerly matron at the girls
industrial school at Beloit, the gates
stand open and no attempt is made to
escape.
Out of the IL women on the farm
only one has as much as an eighth
grade education. Every other day
classes in arithmetic, language,
grammar, physiology, and spelling
are held. All but one will enroll in
cooking and sewing. She will enroll
in home nursing on account of poor
eyes. The course will be under the
supervision Of Miss Mary M. Baird,
assistant in home study in the di-
vision of extension.

FIGHTING FIRE ON THE FARM

Loss Of property on the farm often
can be prevented by the use OF chem
ical fire extinguishers, according to
II. H. King, associate professor OF
chemistry in the Kansas State Agri-
cultural college.
THE way in which the chemical
fire extinguishers work is by forcing
a stream of gas or of an incombusti-
bic liquid which quickly volatilizes
over the iames,' said Professor
King. This gas, which is heavier
than air. acts as blanket and
smothers the flames by shutting off
the oxygen supply. Some extinguish-
ers generate a gas which forces a
stream of water from a container up-
on the flames"
Hand fire extinguishers can be
bought for from IS to $40. They
are light enough to be carried from
one room to another or to outside
buildings. and are easily operated at
safe distance from the fire.
After use Of the apparatus recharg-
ing is often necessary. This can be
done at a comparatively low cost. II
not used, however, some extinguish-
ers will be just as available at the
end of 20 years as when new. Others
are not so durable and need to be re-
charged oftener.
There are at least SO chemical fire
extinguishers now installed in the
various buildings in the agricultural
college. One make, especially fitted
for putting out oil and gas fires, is
considered Of great value in the
chemistry department, where explos-
ives and infammable material are
handled daily.
The wide use of kerosene stoves
and lamps, gasoline engines, and au-
tomobiles on the farm increases the
need of such fire extinguishers. The
stream of gas can be directed into a
blazing tank of oil and the fire put
out. In no such case should water
be used, as 1t does not mix with the
Oil and only spreads the fame. In
stead, sand or some other means of
smothering the flames should be en-
ployed.
Burning clothing can be extin-
guished without harm to the person.
If the apparatus is properly handled.
1t is claimed that neither the finest
fabric nor the brightest material is
injured by the chemicals.
Directions for operating and re-
the continuance are furn-
ished with each one. It is advisable
to consult some authority on the sub
ject before purchasing fire extin-
guisher.

FLOATING

If one would reflect, let him en-
bark on some placid stream and float
with the current. He cannot resist
the muse. AS we ascend the stream,
plying the paddle with might and
main, snatched and impetuous
thoughts course through the brain.
We dream of conflict, power and
grandeur. But turn the prov down
stream, and rock, tree, kline, knoll.
assuming new and varying positions,
as wind and water shift the scene,
favor the liquid lapse of thought, far
reaching and sublime, but ever calm
and gently undulating.-Thoreau
