the mercury had risen to Al and was
expected to go to about so this after
noon. Tomorrow will be a second edi-
ton of today.
Practically no rain was reported in
the state during the last "a hours.
There was light sprinkle at Topeka,
but not enough precipitation to be re-
corded and very light showers were
reported at Kansas City and st. Jo-
seph. Mo.
No cold weather has been reported
anywhere in the United States today,
but the northern part of the country
will probably get low temperatures to-
night. The highest temperature ever
recorded here on this date was 81 in
1891 and the lowest was 20 in 1913.
The wind this morning was blowing
ten miles an hour from the northwest.
The Kaw river was rising at the rate
or half an inch an hour this morning,
showing that it is still capable of COM

of an overflow, however, Flora says.

should again be studied carefully and

periOr merits retained. If it is possible
to reduce these to one or two, 1T is de-
Sirable to do so. Further progress
along this line consists in increasing
the progeny of the selection or selec-

immature Seed.
Relatively few growers In the United
States really maintain a seed plat,
and still fewer practice planting the
seed plat at a considerably later date
than the main crop in order to secure
small to medium-sized Immature tu-
bers, as is the custom with many Eng
lish and Scotch seedsmen. In planting
the seed plat designed for the pro-
ductiOn of seed for the main crop the
following season. it is desirable to
plant two or three-Ounce whole tubers.
The use of whole tubers insures' a per-
feet stand and a minimum percentage
OF diseased plants. At the same time,
as result of late planting and the
heavy set produced by whole seed, the
tubers do not attain a large size and
are thus ideal for seed purposes. The
date Of planting the seed plat should
be governed by the locality in which
the potatoes are to be grown. In gen.
eral, it might be said that the seed
plat should be planted as late as it is
possible to insure a good tuber devel-
Opment before the plants are killed by
the frost in the autumn.

Results Given Of Experiments Con-
Quoted at Government Farm
More Profitable to Feed Soaked

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agricultural
Corn silage and velve. beans are
said to form satisfactory ration for
fattening steers for market. This is
the result of feeding experiments just
completed at the United States depart
ment Of agriculture farm at Beltsville,
Md.
Other points brought out by the tests
Indicate: that velvet beans compare
favOrably with cOttOnseed meal, pro-
ducing profitable gains when the beans
are the sole concentrate of the ration !;
that it is more profitable to feed
soaked beans than it is to grind them !;
and that more beans will be eaten if
soaked before they are fed than if they
are fed dry.
The objects Of the experiment were
to compare velvet beans in three forms
whole, ground, and sOaked-with cot
tOnSeed meal as supplements to corn
silage and dry rOughages, and to de-
ternine the most economical forms in
which velvet beans might be fed in fat

were bought last February in the East
st. Louis market, where they were Sc

and Missouri, and were in fair stOcker
condition when placed on the expert
mental feeding ratiOns. They were
divided into four lots of ten steers
each, the lots selected so that they
would be. as nearly equal as possible
in weight, quality and condition. They
were fed for 112 days.
The average daily ration consumed
by lot was: 4.39 pounds of cotton
seed meal. 1912 pounds of corn silage,

lot made an average daily gain of 2.3O
