Kansas yearlings sold in full car loads

Kansas State Agricultural College,
Mahattan, Kansas.
Manhattan, May ga bility to
store tbe wheat crop on the farm, VIII
be perhaps of greater value TO the
farmer This year than ever before, -
says Edward c. Johnson, dean of
extension in the Kansas State Agri-
cultural college.
For this, there are two principal
reasons first, the storage of freigh t
cars, resulting from the congo tion of
freight on the Atlantic seaboard;
second, the lower prices per bushel
during the early threshing season.
This lower price necessarily results
from inability to get transportation
facilities, from the greater risk and
hence greater margin taken by ele-
vators to handle grain before it has
gone through the sweating process,
and from the fact that the whole
grain trade knows that great quanti-
ties of wheat will be marketed in
July, August and September, what
ever the price may be.
I'm study of wheat marketing,
Prof. L. A. Fitz..of the Agricultural
college has -foundethat two-thirds of
Kansas grain is marketed .iHr<:Juty,
August, September and October and
almost without exception prices are
lower than later in the year. ~
THE principal remedy for this
condition is in the hands Of the
farmer himself and consists ins the
CT Of n fa fn "a
short period to several months. This
may be done by stacking the grain,
by storing it in farm elevators
granaries, or metal bins, or by COM
bination of stacking first and storing
in bins afterwards. Grain well stack
ed Immediately after harvest does,
not terminate or become bieaohed,
goes through, the sweating process. in
the stack and not in the bin, and
when threshed and placed on the mar
ket averages one to two grades better
than if threshed out of the shock.
This means 2 to 4 cents more per
bushel. The difference is especially
marked in a season of wet harves t.
Even if bleached in the SHOCK bsfore
stacking, the grain regains much of
it's original color in the stack "
The expense of stacking and thresh-
ina may be a little more than if the
grain is thIeshed out of the shock
Dean Johnson admits The fact :,
however, that many can use their
labor NOR effectively over period of
stacking than over short period of
threshing out of the shock, more

MORE COTTON USED AT HOME
Uncle Sans Figures Show Marked In.
crease in Consumption by Ameri.
can Mills in 1916.

A marked increase in the amount of
cotton consumed by American mills in
the cotton year ending July 81, 1915, as
compared with the preceding two years,
is shown by Uncle Sans figures on the
textile industry just made public. These
figures show total consumption in
American mills of 6,397,61 bales Of
cotton and S90,916 bales of linters. The
corresponding amounts for the year
ended July 81, 1915, were 5,597, ,362
bales and 411,845 bales. respectively !;
and for the year ended August 81, 1914,
5,577, ,4O8 bales and 3O7, ,325 bales, re-
spectively. The consumption of cotton
during the cotton year 1916 represented
increases of 14.3 per cent and 14.7 per
cent as compared with that for the cot
ton years 1915 and 1914, respectively !;
and the corresponding percentages Of
increase for linters were 1889 and
1865. The marked increase in the
consumption of hnters is due to the
very great increase in the use of this
product for the manufacture of ex-
plOsives.
The number of cotton spindles active
during the cotton year 1916 throughout
the United States was 32,805, 1888, rep
resenting increases Of 2.8 per cent and
% per cent respectively, as compared
with the corresponding numbers for
the cotton years 1915 and 1914.

wild and inspiring as to really have
made the proper setting for the up
building of the great primitive myths
of Greece, which could not have grown
up anywhere else.
But the real treasures of the early
days Of Epirus are for the most part
still held by the faithful earth. In
1912 it was impossible to visit this
wild country save under heavy guard.
AT the very gates Of Europe Epirus
was less known, more shut off, than
the Congo.
The French Consul Pouqueville
hardly dared to go out of sight of his
home, all barred with iron. Not a
week passed that there was not a
bloody murder on the highways. The
Greek inspectors of schools founded
by wealthy Epirotes took their lives
in their hands when they came on
their trips, which were kept secret.
Travellers within the last few years
had to be especially guarded if they
would pass through alive.

came the head of an EpirOtic league
after the fall of the MOlossian king
dom.
The MoIossian Kingdom.
The Molossians, most powerful and
progressive of the II tribes which in
habited Epirus, were ruled by chief
tains who professed to be descendants
of Pyrrhus, the son of Achilles, who
was supposed to have settled in this
part of the world after the fall of
Troy.
One of the most noted of the MOlos-
sian kings was Arymbas H. who gave
his brothers daughters an excellent
education, married one of them him
self and gave the other, Olympias, to
Philip II Of Macedon. Olympias lives
in history as the mother of Alexander
the Great. From AleXander's aunt de-
scended Pyrrhus, who waged a long
war with Rome in behalf of the Taren-
tines and who made Epirus power in
world politics for a short time. More
than 100 years after the death Of
Pyrrhus, Epirus again came in con-
flict with Rome as the ally of Perseus,
the Macedonian who mounted throne
over the body of his murdered broth
err Demetrius. The Romans under
Aemilius Paulus annihilated the forces
Of PerSeus at Pydna q6S B. O., and
took the defeated king in triumph to
the capital. The punishment meted
out to Epirus for it's share in the war
was the destruction of 20 Of Its prin-
Cipal cities and the enslavement of
10000 Of its people-a blow from
which the kingdom never recovered.
With the partition Of the Roman en-
pire Epirus was given to the eastern
emperOrs. When the Latins took Con-
stantinople in 1904 it became posses
sion Of Michel Angelus COmnenus. In
succeeding centuries the territory has
been variously governed and misgov-
erned by Albanians, Venetians and
Turks.

STRAWBE BERRIES NEED
GOOD WINTER COVER
Nothing Better Than Clean Straw
Of Some Kind-CarefuIIy
Avoid Grass Seeds.

(By r. A M'GINTY, Colorado Agricul.
tural College, Fort Collins,)
There is probably no better cover.
ing for the strawberry bed during the
winter than a layer of good, clean
straw of some kind, though some grow.
ers prefer to use a mulch of strawy
manure. Whatever material is used it
should be as free as possible from the
seeds Of grass and weeds, otherwise
they will cause trouble when they
come up among the plants in the
spring.
The covering should be applied after
the ground becomes frozen late in the
fall, and ought to be deep enough to
prevent rapid freezing and thawing
say three or four inches. In this cli-
mate it is advisable to place boards,
brush or poles on the mulch to hold it
in place when there are strong winds.
The main reason for covering straw
berry plants is to prevent the alternate
freezing and thawing of the soil dur
ing cold nights and warm days. When
plants are not protected they are likely
to have their crowns and roots injured
and may die. In addition to prevent
ing this, the mulch will help retain
moisture and may retard the blooming
period for a week or ten days. The
latter is advantageous, since the kill
ing of the blooms by the late frosts in
the spring may be avoided.
When growth begins in the spring,
the mulch is removed. Part of it nay
be worked around the crowns Of the
plants to form a clean bed for the fruit
to rest on, thus keeping it out of the
dirt. The remainder is removed to
allow irrigation and cultivation.

PLANS TO PROTECT
GREAT ROAD FUND
Uncle Sam Proposes to Have
$75,0oo,00o Well
Spent.
WOULD GET MONEYS WORTH
Effort VIII BE Made to Secure Con-
struetion of Continuous Highways
Connecting One State With
Another.

UEele Sam is preparing to take every
version into improper channels of any
part of the SI5,000,O00 which the fed
eral government is to spend in co-Opera-
ton with states on good roads within
the next five years. Plans which are
expected to obtain this result have
been made by Logan Waller Page, di-
rector of the office of public roads and
rural engineering, under whose direc-
ton the S75,0OO,OO0 will be expended.
The government is determined, Off
Gals say, that there shall be no repeti-
ton of the lax methods and waste
which have characterized the building
of roads in many regions, and that a
dollars worth Of rOadbed shall be con-
structed for every dollar spent.
The plans designed to prevent abuses
are covered largely in rules and regula-
tiOns promulgated by Secretary Hous-
ton of the department of agriculture,
under authority conferred by the fed
eral aid road act. The rules, which
outline the methods by which the fed
eral government shall aid the states in
the construction of highways, provide
that detailed information in reference
to the proposed construction and main
tenance shall be supplied to the secre-
tary of agriculture before any agree
mentS are made.
Many States Seek Aid.
When the plans of state for road
building, accompanied by request for
federal aid are received, they will be
investigated fully by government
agents and, if acceptable, the state will
receive from the government its appOr-
tiOnment of the appropriation made for
the purpose. Under the terms of the
act, the federal government pays the
