Experiment. Station Notes

The rainfall for April was 1.96 in
ches, which is one-fourth inch below
| normal.
In spite of mud and threatening
weather, Grain Sorghum and Cash
Crop Day at the Station was well at
tended Sixty progressive farmers
were present to discuss spring crops
and arrange for seed SupeTinten-
dent, Chas- R. Weeks, began the in
formal discussion with few remarks
about the importance of spring crops
that can still be grown where winter
wheat has failed. The merits of each
crop were compared in detail BY Prof.
L. E. Call of the Kansas State Agri-
cultural College and Mr.. Getty, Kiene
and HOllstead of the Station staff.
and the discussion was entered into
by a number of farmers, and bust
ness men of Hays. The value of kafr.
feterita, etc, as cash crops for ex-
tensive growing was emphasized. A
large corn acreage was justified be-
cause wheat follows corn well. Beans
Tor small plots were discussed.
The Station is helping the farmers
exchange seed. 1t keeps lists of grow
ers having seed to sell, and has also
bought some corn, kafir, milo and fet-
erita to redistribute at cost. The Of
fee force is rushed accommodating
farmers that come for seed. About
hfty-fve men called Tuesday. Or
ders for beans, barley and several
varieties of corn are referred to the
business mems committee of Havs.
and others who have quantities of
good seed on hand
The Station plans to plant 100
acres Red Amber sorghum, $50 acres
Pink kafir, 240 acres corn, and about
100 acres will be divided among Su-
dan grass, dwarf kafr, dwarf milo.
and feterita.
DR.. Davidson of Washington, D. c.,
has completed laying out his fertiliz-
er plots of wheat. He and Mr.. Spen-
Ger left Tuesday night, for Beatrice,
Nebr., to start similar work.
