Is Kansas the greatest alfalfa grow
ing state or does this honor belong
to Nebraska? According to q recent
estimate made by the United States
department of agriculture received Dy
J. c. Moh1er, secretary of the Kansas
state board of agriculture, Kansas is
recognized as the leading alfalfa state
as far as acreage is concerned with
100000 acres in alfalfa. Nebraska
is second with 1923, 600 acres. But
the federal department estimates the
yield in Nebraska this year at $780,
600 tons as compared to 2,280,000 tons
in Kansas Secretary Mohler believes
that this estimate of the United States
department is incorrect, probably due
to different methods of reporting in
the two states. According to the pre-
liminary estimates made by the Kan
sas board the yield in this state will
be approximately 30 tons, higher than
the federal estimate for Nebraska.

Kansas, according to the reports COM
ing to John Crawford, state labor COM
missioner, from the various branches
Of the free employment bureau. There
is a heavy demand for farm hands,

applied for work. But only one Of

cents an hour The others wanted not
less than fifty and some wanted high
