While the Pacific Coast League, as usual, holds the rec ord for officially opening the season when the clubs of the circuit began play on April 1, the majority of the organizations will not unlimber their bats until close to the middle of the month.

CAN KANSAS MANUFACTURE?

Every Commercial club In Kan
sas has expended hours of oratory
and considerable money trying to
secure factories. Gov. Capper has
added his voice to the demand that
Kansas make some of the things it
uses. Why should we be behind Iowa,
for instance?
Iowa has 10 good sized boot and
shoe factories; Kansas has 1 or @.
Iowa has wooden mills; Kansas
has l. Iowa has 16 cutlery and tool
factories; Kansas has /. Iowa has
10 glove factories; Kansas /. Iowa

Iowa has II manufacturing institu-
tions for the purpose of making sup
plies for dairymen, poultrymen and
beekeepers; Kansas has only l such
factory Iowa has 235 brick and tile
factories while Kansas has but So.
She has 229 woodworking estab-
lishments while Kansas has 26. She
has AZ establishments for making
agricultural implements while Kan
sas has 8. Iowa has II canning and
preserving factories while Kansas
has only 3.
Can Kansas make things? Of
course-but why does it go along
year after year sending its money
out of the state while its towns lack
employment for their laborers? Gov
Capper says Kansas should brace up
and do business, and he is right.

the player who makes foozle must

his drive he must put that miss clear
out of his mind when he comes to
make his next shot; for If he let's
the memory of the blunder linger
in his mind he is considerably more
apt to blunder again. And that Is a

Kansas Farmer: Kansas has spent
twenty-five millions of dollars on
roads and bridges during the past
five years. Massachusetts, with the
same yearly expenditure has built
nine thousand miles of hard sur
faced roads, while Kansas has but
four hundred and ten. Only four
teen states spent more money on
highways than Kansas, but forty-one
have more miles of surfaced roads.
Only six states have a less mileage
of surfaced roads, and only two have
more miles Of roads to surface. Shall
we continue to dig up five or six
million dollars each year for roads
and bridges and then bury it in the
rich Kansas mud from whence it
came?
