The Kansas City Northwestern rail-
road is having almost as much trouble
as the Leavenworth G. Topeka road.
Stories of the SORROWS of the Kansas
City Northwestern. as related to mem
hers of the state public utilities COM
mission, would make strong men weep.
The tale of woe of the Kansas City
northwestern stands somewhere near
the top of the roll and is either hor-
rible example for the Leavenworth-
Topeka road or keen competitor Tor
public sympathy.
Mem bers of the state commission
returned today from Seneca. where
they heard an application for addi-
tional train service from Seneca thru
SummerHe1d to the switch track ter
minal somewhere in Nebraska. There
was question but that Sumnerfield
patrons made a strong showing. But
when the Kansas City Northwestern
told its story, there was an almost
general desire to ask the state leg

Special Train Service.
Witnesses from Summerfield went
to the hearing on a special train. But
in order to run the special train the
road took an engine off a regular
train. And in order to deliver the dis

LAST week DRY
But Rains This Morning Great
ly Aided This Section.
Corn Planting Nearly Complete
Over Kansas Now.

The report of the weather and crop
conditions in Kansas for week ending
May FL, as issued by the section ,en-
ter of the weather bureau in Topeka,
follows:
Abnorma1ly warm, dry, and windy
weather prevailed over Kansas this
week, with no rain heavy enough 20
do any good, except in a few of the
extreme eastern counties and on the
morning of the 21st. in some of the
northcentral counties. Rain is badly
needed over the greater part of the
state and must come soon if growing
crops are not materially damaged.
Wheat Hurt by Dry Weather.
Wheat has deteriorated except in a
few scattered localities Over much
of the state. and especially in The
northeast part, the lower leaves are
turning yellow and unless rain falls
soon it will be seriously damaged
1t has practically all headed out in
the extreme southwestern counties
and heads are showing here ami there
to the Nebraska line in the eastern
portion. In the great wheat produc-
ing counties in the central portion of
the state 1t is in the boot and in the
northwest is tointing. Present midi
cations are that harvest will begin i'll
first week of June and by June Is to
20 in the south-central portion and
almost as far north as the Kansas
river valley. but not before July
in the northeastern and north-central
portions.
Rye has headed generally and will
be ready to cut in another month in
the eastern portion. Oats are healing
in the southern part, but are gem
orally suffering on account of the dry
weather.
Alfalfa cutting is general III the
southeast. In the northeastern and
central counties it is beginning IN
small way, but will not be general
for another week. The crop in the
northeast will be considerably lighter
than usual. Pasture is also short in
many places.
Corn Planting About Finished.
Planting corn is about finished, ex-
cept in the extreme northwestern
counties, where it will require another
week. termination is being delayed
in many places by lack of moisture
In the southeastern part much of the
April planted corn has had to be re-
planted. Cultivation is beginning IN
the eastern part of the state.
Planting grain sorghums and cane
is beginning in all parts Of the state.
Potatoes are generally reportei to
be as big as marbles in the south
east and in excellent condition in all
parts except the extreme western. IT,
the Kansas river valley they are be-
ginning to bloom. Rain at this tirne
would benefit them greatly.
Strawberries are rippening in the
southeast and poisoning i'll the
northeast.
