Treatment of chronic diseases is
rapidly becoming an exact science.
Thinking men and women no longer
believe that the surgeons knife is
the only cure for chronic conditions.
Only within the last few years has
the average citizen, and for that mat
ter, the majority of physicians, ac-
tually had much faith in medical
treatment for chronic diseases.
Nature palinly warns US when all is
not well with the body. Watch ma
lures danger signals and answer
promptly her call for help. When you
are down sick with a fever, you call a
competent physician. When you are
troubled with some chronic disease
the wisest thing to do is to call on a
doctor who has made chronic diseases
his speciality.

That several hundred plots in till
age and rotation have been carefully
recorder for thirteen years; that
samples of the soil for each foot are
taken for three feet deep while twice
year samples are taken ten feet
deep; in connection with this wind
velocity, temperature, evaporation,
rainfall and all other weather data
is kept along with the methods of till
age and crop production for each

to be more accurate than observa-
tions made over one or two years in

EXPERIMENT STATION NOTES
Many Write That They VIII Attend
the Roundup This Year

The following from a letter from
Mr.. Schnacke of Larned, is typical:

Pawnee county if the roads are good"
The same kind of information
comes from Rawlins and Cheyenne
counties to the northwest and from
Ellsworth and Lincoln counties to the
east. This years results are partic-
ularly interesting since the develop
ment of breeding cow experiment
passes its fifth year and it is the
second and third year for some of the
other series of livestock investigation

Everybody Invited

A large tent has been secured in
which to hold the Seventh Annual
Roundup at the Fort Hays Expert
ment Station next Saturday, April

ance to the stockmen and farmers of
Western Kansas will be answered by
the livestock results reported at this
roundup. A strong program carry

the Kansas State Agricultural Col

A Few Facts Worth Remembering

Eight years averages show that
early blowing for wheat outyielded
late blowing four bushels per acre.
Last year SO of an acre of silage
made from poor kafr went as far in
wintering cattle as did one acre in the
shock and this year in a year of good
kafir our results show that one acre
in the silo went further than two
acres in the shock. These are results
of actual tests where everything fed
during the winter was weighed
Over long period of years the Sta
ton results show that grain sorghums
have averaged 1872 bushels per acre
per year while corn averaged bush

Meetings in a Tent

A large tent has been secured,
which will be placed on the elevated
ground just south of the seed barn
and here all sessions of the Roundup
will be held this year. The Strand
Theater and the Fort Hays Normal
authorities have always kindly allow
ed the Station to use their buildings
for these meetings but the difficulty
of getting the stockmen back TO the
Station to view the stock after these
meetings has made it seem wise to
have the meetings on the Station
where the stock can be seen.
Luncheon will be served by the
Station as usual and the tent will af-
ford place for the people to sit down
and eat after they pass through the
barn and are served. It is a fixed
custom at the Station that everyone
attending the Roundup is a guest of
the Station at hot luncheon at noon.
This has proven very satisfactory
since the bulk of the people attending
the meetings from 70 to 100 miles
away are compelled to drive in cars
and it is rather difficult for the crowd
to get back and forward from town
after the cars are lined up and parked
for the day.

Wind Storms

In spite of the heavy winds this
year, less damage has been done than
one would expect This is true for
two reasons: many farmers have
learned that by furrowing their land
at right angles to the prevailing wind,
much of the soil drifting can be stop
ped; there seems to be considerable
moisture in the soil below the sur
face. The wheat is growing rapidly
now that the time will soon be at hand
when the serious damage from winds
will be lessened, especially where
farmers give some attention to the
open ground that they expect to plant
to row crops this year.
