Pierre readers.

east OF Pierre, says: For years |
suffered from kidney complaint, the

SUDAN GRASS

Sudan grass is we'll adapted to
withstand drouth and is fast becom-
ing recognized as staple and de-
pendable crop for Kansas, asserts G.

of extension, Kansas State Agricul-
tural college, and formerly superin-
tendent of substations, in bulletin
Sudan Grass in Kansas"
In so far as Kansas is concerned
points out Mr.. Thompson, Sudan
grass is adapted to practically all
soils except those which are very wet
and poorly drained or those which
are extremely alkaline or sandy. Sol
conditions generally favorable to Su.
dan grass are similar to those favor
able to other sorghums. It yields
best in rich loan, or to sandy loan
soil that is we'll drained. Thinner
and poorer soils necessarily produce
lighter yields, although Sudan grass
like the other sorghums, is an ex
tensive feeder, and is one Of thu
profitable crops on thin, poor uplant
soils. Being native of hot, dr.!
climate, it is naturally adapted t

used by primitive man 100000 years

elephant, the broad nosed rhinoceros

German jungles.
The discovery of this human lower

THE FIRST STEP TO SUCCESS

The first lesson in success might
be entitled Cheerful Helpfulness. Z"
1t ought to be learned early by every
boy and girl. 1t ought to be learned
in the home; then it will be second
nature everywhere else. 1t delights
mother and lessons her burdens, and
makes home happier for every men,
Der of the family. If the young folks
will start out with the thought that
the greatest thing in the world is
serving others and not being served
by them, all Of the latter that any
body could wish will come as natur-
al result. Do you doubt 1t? Put the
question to yourself, whom do you
like to serve? Invariably, the an
swer will be those who serve or are
willing to serve you. Not the quar-
relsome, petulent, bullying persons
about you, but those who are cheer
full, watchful and willing to do the
little things that smooth the rough
texture Of everyday life.
Those who soonest make a place
for themselves in the home or in
money earning tasks are those who
are quick to see what they can dc
to help and are willing to do it, CIV
ing time and effort to the task OF
learning, If it be difficult. It is thus
that the Office boy becomes a clerk
the clerk partner in the business
and the partner the head of the firm
And the same way up is open to the
young woman in any of the employ
ments that she seeks.
On the other hand, the sure way t
failure Is through blindness to the
little bits Of helpfulness, evasion o.
duty, watchfulness of the clock tina
not an extra minute of time may b,
put in; the expectation that, Will,
you give ungrudging service to none
everybody will give it to you. Oppor
tunity opens wide to the cheerful
helpful person, but her gates must b.

the relatively dry conditions of west
ern Kansas, and it is in this part of
the state that it will prove of most
value.
Sudan grass can DE used readily in
any ordinary farm rotation. 1t is an
annual, and can be substituted in the
average rotation for corn or any
other sorghum crop, or it can be
grown in the longer rotations instead
of the perennial hay or pasture grass
es. 1t is not legume, and will there
fore not add nitrogen to the soil, al
though its extensive fibrous root sys-
tenn contributes to the supply of Or
ganic matter. Careful study of its
requirements under field conditions
and examinations of the root system
at all stages Of growth show that
Sudan grass can draw moisture from
greater depths of soil than millet, but
1t does not draw it's moisture supply
from as great depth as do the Or
binary sorghums.
Sudan grass is crop that natures
quickly and can often be used as a
catch crop. Because it makes a much
better sod than the ordinary annual
grasses, and because its growth OF
foliage is rank and rapid, it has been
and no doubt will be, used to con-
siderable extent for pasture purposes

JOHN DIS MONEY PILE

Now that John D. Rockefeller's
wealth has reached a billion dollars,
there are many angles from which
one may view the pile in an effort to
obtain a faint idea of what such a
sum really means. For instance, If
the total sum were in silver dollars
stacked as such coins usually are
stacked, the pile would be 248 miles
high. To count the total amount in
to dollars would require 1880 tons
of silver and would need 2,0S3
freight cars drawn by 104 locomo-
tives to haul it to the mint. If a
person had the entire sum before him
and started to count it dollar by dol
lar at the rate of SIS second, II
would require him to work day and
night six years and four months
Working on union hours would re.
quire more than eighteen years. The
! average man is credited with ability
to lift about two hundred pounds. A
package of 81 bills weighing two
hundred pounds would be worth
$4,000. Therefore, If Mr.. Rookie
feller's wealth were in s bills done
up into two hundred pound packages
it would require about $1,000 mel
to lift it. In the United States ther'
are about 100 million persons and IL
the entire world there are consider
ably less than billion people. Tt
the former Mr.. Rockefeller would b,
able to give $40 each from his for
tune and more than fifty cents t
every person on earth.-New Yorl
Letter to the Pittsburgh Dispatch.

BENEFIT OF STALLION LAW

Stations from grade and scrub
stock to the number of 1885 have
been eliminated and $50 pure-bred
stations added since the Kansas stall
lion license law went into effect in
1910. This means, says DR.. G. W.
McCampbell, that the annual colt
crop in Kansas has been augmented
in value approximately $500, 900.
A total of s15O,OOO,OOO represents
the capital invested in horses in Kan
sas. 1t is no longer possible for the
unreliable dealer to impose upon the
purchaser Of stations by selling
grade or scrub stock as pure bred.
The purchaser or the patron may
know the exact breeding Of any stall
lion under the operation Of the law,

PRIVATE GARAGES A SERIOUS
FIRE HAZARD

Last year there were about 10000
automobiles in Kansas. The state
Automobile Department estimates
that this years total will run to
something like 10000, an increase
of about 10000. Most of the cars in
Kansas are kept in private garages on
the premises of the owner, usually
very close to the house or barn. In
nearly all of these garages more OF
less lubricating oil and gasoline are
stored. Much Of the gasoline is kept
in large quantities. Very few have
less than five or ten gallons and many
