Kansas is slipping, according to
Harry c. Bowman of the state board
of control. Her population is lag
ging, her insane and state county
charity patients are increasing at an
abnormal rate. Taxes have jumped
more than 110 per cent in twelve
years. Farm mortgages in Kansas are
larger than in Colorado and Okla
homa combined. Reflections of Kan
sas as she really is. have been sent
by Bowman to the state printer and
will be ready for distribution at an
early date.
Bowman's startling revelation of
conditions in Kansas were made in a
paper entitled benevolent and Cor
rectional Work in Prosperous, Prohi-
bition Kansas" Without details of the
report on benevolent work in the
state, Bowman's paper brings to the
front some of the records and facts
which have often been overlooked by
proud native Kansans. Bowman ad-
mits Kansas is one of the greatest
states in the nation. But Bowman be-
lieves Kansas should not kid herself
into the belief that the state is at the
head of the league in all branches of
the governmental game.
Many authorities are quoted by
Bowman in his statement as to condi-
tions in Kansas, but always he goes to

This will be the first year since auto.
mobile racing came into the popularity
which Il now enjoys, that the ~. eIy,,,t.
Of the year will be less than zoo r,iIeS
The managements OF the various r.,cgns
plants have decided 20 make 800 miles tbs
maxim distance Of any event 70 be held.
this season on a sanctioned course
They have figured that the cutting dovTn
Of the distance will make the event rnor.
interesting from the spectators point 81
view. None Of the skill Of the driy,sr-
will be lost by the change, nor will tbs
test Of the ability Of the machine as a
racing car be detracted from. II {,
always during the last $50 miles Of the
big races that the cars began TO drop
out, either due TO loss Of time At tbe
pit by reason Of which the driver figured
that he was so far behind that he couId
not finish in the money or to accident.
The shortening Of the distance will make
the pace faster II anything and the finish
more exciting. II will also afford an op-
pOrtunity, for those who desire. to hold
some short distance races before the big
event Of the day is staged.
Every year ABOUT this time the plans
Of the various factories for the coming
season begin 70 be noised about. These
carefully guarded secrets somehow leak
out and just enough information IL
secured TO whet the curiosity Of the
automobile public. Right now n Il
rumOred that there are among the motor
car manufacturers, who next season VIII
have something new In the way OF 9
fOur-cylinder car TO offer. This does
not mean that the multiple cylinder
machines as the skies, elEhts and
twelves are commonly known will be
suplanted. Rather It means that there IS
a growing demand for a small light car
that is very economical TO operate, and
which can be used for business as well
as pleasure. The four-cylinder car with
the high speed motor has been % i'm
proved that Il is claimed by those who
have made a study OF the question that
up to fifteen miles per hour Il has
greater nexibnlty than its brethren OF
more cylinders, from fifteen TO thirty
miles an hour the flexibility IS about the
same, but beyond the point the six
eight or twelve IS more flexible. This
statement holds true IN connection with
the light car only.
