TO FAIR GROUNDS
Headquarters Moved for Next
Weeks Opening.
Visitors Asked to Register With
Commercial Club.

State fair headquarters are being
moved to the fair grounds today.
Many exhibits are coming III and it is
necessary that the secretary, Phil
Eastman, and his workers, be on the
ground. Saturday and Sunday will
be big days at the fair ground. Stands
are being built. exhibits are being ar
ranged, tents are springing up all over
the place and there is already enough
livestock to make an ordinary county
fair.
]. Will Kelly, secretary of the COM
mercial club, asks that people coming
to Topeka for the fair put in their
applications for rooms early IN the
day. The commercial club will at
tempt to see to it that everyone has a
room. In the past many visitors have
waited until evening; then sought
rooms, and the officials OF the club
have been forced to call people out of
bed to make arrangements COR rooms.
By leaving their requests -or rooms
at the club, as soon as they reach To-
peka, visitors will insure themselves a
place to sleep ard relieve the COM
mercial club officers of a great deal
of worry and confusion.

plains why Washburn is securing two

Kansas cities in the fight, Topeka,
Hutchinson and Kansas City, Kan.
Topeka put in her claim for the
bank twenty-four hours after Presi-
dent Wilson signed the rural credit
bill. Two days later letters were writ

A Row Brewing.
Topeka sees in the entry of Kansas
City, Kan, into the fight the begin

Jouett Shouse, who is fighting for the
bank in Hutchinson, and Congressman
Taggart, the Kansas City, Kan, man.
Senator Thompson is accredited with

of Kansas bankers and business men

Proud Old Ladies Have Given
Lives to Charity.
Now They Must Depend on Aid
of the County.
THEY SHOULD GO To INGLESIDE
1t Would Cost $500 to Keep
Them in Happiness.
County Commissioners Facing
Real Problem.

Two proud old ladies who are giving
the latter part of their lives to charity
are reduced to the point where char
ity must come their way-preferably
under disguise.
They are near eighty years of age
and for many years have taken care
of the children placed in the Topeka
branch Of the Kansas Children's Home
society. They have been paid a small
amount for their work and have been
fed But they have been unable to
save any money for extreme old age
Now they are too old to care for
small and frequently sickly children.
They forget. They have no relatives.
They have lived in Shawnee county
for thirty years and have cone moth
ing but good. They could so to the
county poor farm but they dread the
idea of that.
The two aged women believe their
lives of sacrifice entitle them to
greater consideration than would be
accorded them at the poor farm. They
believe they have earned $S00-the
place the two of them in Ingleside
for the remainder of their lives.
No Worry Then.
The Society for which they have
worked has made proposal to the
county commissioners. 1t proposes
that 1t raise $4OO by popular SubScr1p-
ton and that the county furnish the
other $500. If that were done the old
couple would have nothing more to
worry about while they live and would
know they were to have a respectable
burial in a respectable burial ground
Z From an economic standpoint the
proposal offered might be the better
plan for the county. 1t might cost
the county more than $400 to care for
the women the remainder of their
lives on the monthly basis. But the
commissioners are afraid OF establish
ing a precedent that will make trouble
later. With the funds the county has
it is not possible to put up $500 for
every deserving person who might
want to go to a home. Funds are
raised in such manner that they must
be doled out to the needy by the
month.
The matter will be threshed out at
another meeting of the commissioners

AND HUMANE
President Pays Glowing Tribute to
Actions of Congress.

Washington, Sept. Sin a state
ment issued following the adjourn
ment of congress President Wilson
called attention to the Helpful and
humane legislation" passed and de-
clared that while he regretted addi-
tional legislation dealing with the re-
cent dispute between the railroads and
their employees had not been completed
he had every reason to believe the
QUESTION would be taken up hmm diate-
ly after congress reassembled.
The presidents statement follows:
"a very remarkable session of con-
gress has just closed full, as all recent
sessions of the congress have been of
helpful and humane legislation which
constitutes contributions of capital
importance to the defense, the eco
nomic progress, and the wholesome
life of the country.

tween the railways and the employees,
but it was rot feasible in the circum-
stances TO continue the session any
longer and therefore only the most
Immediately pressing parts of the pro-
gram could be completed.
THE rest, it is agreed, has merely
been postponed until it can be more
maturely deliberated and perfected. I
have every reason to believe that it is
the purpose of the leaders of the two
houses Immediately upon the reas-
sembling of congress, to undertake this
additional legislation 1t is evident
that the country should be relieved of
the anxiety which must have been
created by recent events with regard
to the future accommodation of such

report:

the hot dry weather in the northern
and central west portions of the Uni
ted States.
Corn declined in prospect during
the month 67,0OO,0OO bushels; spring
100000 bushels; barley, 100000
bushels: buckwheat, 100000 BUSH
els: potatoes, 46.000.000 bushels; rice,
1,400,000 bushels; cotton declined in
prospect in a month 100000 bales,
and apples 100000 barrels.
Tobacco Prospects Improve.
ION the other hand, tobacco pros
poets improved during the month a.
000,0 900 pounds; the hay estimate is
100000 tons higher than the August
l forecast, and flax and sugar beet
prospects improved slightly during the
month.
The reduction of the spring wheat
condition brings the forecast of all
wheat down to only GIL 100000 bush
els, which is not more than the normal
domestic requirement, and compares
slightly over 1 ,000,0 900 bushels last
year and 73S,000,000, the yearly aver
age of the preceding five years.
Kansas Corn Hardest Hit.
THE corn crop forecast is now
slightly below the average production
of recent years, the shortage being
most severe in Kansas. In most states
almost an average crop is forecast.
THE oats crop is short only in
season and last years immense crop,
because the quantity now forecast is
more than the yearly average of the
past five years.
THE potato condition forecasts an
unusually short crop for winter supply.
THE hay crop is the largest crop
ever estimated and is an exception to
the general indication of short crops
this year.
''The tobacco and rice crops also
promise to be the largest ever pro-
duced."
