ENROLMENT OF STUDENTS

During the two weeks from July 20
to August II under the Woman's
Committee. of the National Council of
Defense an important campaign will
be made throughout the nation to re-
cruit young women in the United
States Student Nurse Reserve. The
demand for nurses is so great that it
IS necessary to enroll 25,00O in this
campaign of two weeks, and of this
number 745 are apportioned to Kan
sas.
I earnestly commend this patriotic
work to the young women of Kansas
Intelligent, responsible women from
10 to 35 years of age, of good educa-
ton and sound health are desired
the pick of the country. They are ask
ed to enroll themselves in one of
three ways.
Ito hold themselves in readiness
until April 1, next, to be assigned at
any time when needed to Nurses
Training schools. AS fast as vacan-
cies occur in the 1,579 nurses train
ing schools of the United States these
women will be assigned to fill them.
PAS candidates for the Army
Nursing School recently established
by authority of the War Department.
3-As agreeing to accept either of
the above assignments the Govern.
ment may prefer. The Government
hopes that most of the young women
enrolling themselves will put down
their names under this third classifi-l
cation
In enrolling under this call of
nation you offer yourself for training
as nurse, first to take this training
when called upon, and then after
training to go where the Government
needs your services as a nurse during
the remainder of the war.
All young women between the ages
mentioned above willing-to engage in
this work should give in their names
at the nearest recruiting station es-
tablished by the Woman's Commit
tee of the Council of National De-
Tense. If there is no recruiting sta

From the thousands of heals selected
several strains were developed which
were better than the ordinary wheat,
but the one that has given the best,
results in the hard wheat section of
the state is the variety known
'tKanred."
In fifty-four cooperative tests
with farmers in the hard wheat sec
ton of Kansas, Kanred has averaged
over four bushels per acre more than
the local variety. During its entire
history, Kanred has outyielded Tur-
key in SO out of sc tests; it has out
yielded the Kharkof in 81 out of So
tests and it has outyielded the local
variety in 49 out of 81 tests.
Since this was developed from one
head of wheat, naturally the amount
of this wheat in existence is limited,
but think what it will mean to Paw
nee county, when everybody in the
county sows only Kanred wheat Pro-
badly ten thousand bushels of it will
be produced in Pawnee county this
year, and everyone should try to get
a few bushels of it for a start-Ex.

SILO A GOOD INVESTMENT

Manhattan, Kans-, July Is. One
acre of corn or sorghums in a silo is
worth one and one-hah to two acres
in the field, according to Edward C.
johnson, dean of extension in the
Kansas State Agriculture College.
Not only is the silo a good in.
vestment, but it is patriotic duty 10
save and utilize feed crops to the best
advantage" said Mr.. johnson, "and
this can be done only with the aid of
the silo.
"a silo that cost $3.50 before the
war can be bought for $500 now-an
increase of $3.50, or less than SO per
cent. Alfalfa hay, corn, sorghums,
and other feeds are worth at least
twice as much now as they were be-
fore the war. Therefore, if silo was
a good investment then, it is an even
better investment now, and on a beef
or dairy farm of 100 acres or more
will pay for itself in one year in the
amount of feed saved and the in
creased production. of beef or milk.
kansas was credited with 1O.61O
silos March 1, 1917, and probably has
between $4,000 and $4,000 now. Five
thousand silos now should be added
this year-2,5OO pit silos in western
Kansas and $500 above ground silos
in eastern Kansas.
Through feed wasted or poorly
utelized every. live stock farmer,
whether he produce, beef or dairy cat
tie, pays for silo every year even if
he does not erect one 1t is better to
construct the silo and pay for il : .siv
once
mo type of silo is the best under
all conditions That type should be
used that is best suited to local
needs"
