New Methods Make Farming
Much More Profitable.
Kansas Has New Ways and
Profits by the Evolution.

Manhattan, April 12.-Changes in
the types of farming have made agri-
culture more profita BILE, says w. e.
Grimes, assistant professor of farm
management in the Kansas State
Agricultural college.
Types of farming followed in any
region are almost constantly chang
ing" he says. These changes are
due to the changes in economic condi-
lions and to competition
The man who can anticipate the
things that are coming and be among
the first to change to more profitab BILE
methods is the best farmer.
During the past 25 years many
changes have occurred in the agri-
culture of Kansas. The area in corn
has decreased by nearly one-half. The
decrease in flax has been great. The
acreages of the sorghum and alfalfa
have been quadrupled.
THE daily industry is far more i'm
portant than it was a few years ago.
There are more dairy cattle. while
beef cattle have tended to decrease.
"Feterita was unknown to the aver
age farmer 10 or IL years ago. 1t is
a forage crop that has become well
known and now rather widely used.
Sudan grass is another new forage
crop which has come into use within
the last 10 years. 1t is now of con-
oiNSA oDAC lAiPOl AdllCC Tic
ture of the state.
These changes which have oc-
CURED have been the logical result
of progressing agriculture. Certain
types of farming have been elimi-
mated by other more profitable types.
Crops that were none too well adapted
have been replaced by better adapted
crops.
The decrease in the acreage of
corn and the increase in the acreage
of sorghums can largely be accounted
for by the fact that sorghums are bet
ter adapted to certain portions of the
state than is corn.
with the increase in population the
demands of the market for dairy prod
ucts have increased with the resulting
growth of the dairy industry. Farm
ers have turned to the production OF
younger beef because they found that
they could put it on the markets al
a lower cost than the older animals.
These changes have a lesson foI
| the present day farmer. Farming is
a conservative business and radical
changes shoYld be underta ken slowly
However when a farmer is convinced
that a different kind of farming will
pay him better, it behooves him to
| take up the new type"

able to play last year ON account of
severe attack of typhoid fever, he
came back this, year determined. to
make up for lost time. Like the rest
of the team, he caught the fashion
able flu and contracted pneumonia.
Clean. close guarding marked his play
in every game.
Dunn, the diminutive forward, was
the high point man with 80 field
goals and 80 free throws to his credit.
In the game on the Washburn court
he scored 81 of the thirty-three points
made by st. Marys.
Magner, the other forward, was an
accurate passer and a tower of de-
tense. His height proved a big handi-
cap to opposing guards. His work
retted 46 points, all on field goals.
Burns, at center played his first
year as a regular. His defensive work
was of great value, especially in the
1914 win over Washburn. Seven long
field goals were the features of his
years play.
At guard Tom Kelly, of football
fame, played his usual reliable clean
game. No team ever profited much by
the fewness of his fouls. Lindstrum.
of Bethany, was the only man appear
ing on the local floor who equaled his
speed in dribbling. While he was not a
sure shot, he had an uncanny habit of
putting them in when points were
scarce Neither Lindell, of Washburn,
nor Mcdonald, of Baker, the all-Kan-
sas forwards, scored against him on
the st. Mary's floor.
Maraviglia appeared on the squad
for the fourth season and gave good
account of himself. All the above
were awarded letters and sweaters for
the season of 1919.
