Experir71 e1t Station
Announces Results of
Cotton Spraying Tests

liquid.
II. Syrup, 2 qts.; arsenate of
lead, Ia lbs; water, so gallons
liquid.
The foliage of the plants were well
covered with the different mixtures,
and no rain fell for six days after
the application. Subsequent observa-
ton showed that none of the seleven
different mixtures did any apparent
harm to the cotton foliage.
No weevil attacks were observed
on the squares while covered by the
mixture, but nunctures were found in
squares which grew after the sprays
were applied. 1t was not expected
that single application of any Of
these mixtures would control the
boil weevil. The object of the test
was to determine the resistance of
the cotton plant to the different mix
lures, so that spray schedule could
be planned with a fair degree Of GER
tainty that the foliage would not be
injured.
This one trial indicates that cotton
foliage in active growth is decidedly
resistant to the common insecticides
which makes them comparatively
safe in the hands of the average cot
ton grower.

With the increased interest in
spraying and busting cotton against
the boil weevil, the Georgia expert
ment station has begun some tests
to determine the effects of certain
spray and dust mixtures on cotton
foliage.
The first mixtures tried out were
put on in July while the cotton was
in active growth. They Werex used
on eleven plats of cotton as follows
L. Fish oil soap, 2 lbs; arsenate

Increase Reported
In Farm Tenantry
In Central West

CHICAGO.-The increase in farm
tenantry which has become an is
sue In Kansas does not appear uni
form throughout the central west,
according to reports received here
from a number of agricultural au-
thorities. While the majority of the
several states heard from report an
advance, Wisconsin notes no change,
owing to the opening of new farms,
and Oklahoma declares a decrease.
Illinois, Minnesota, Nebraska and
Ohio show increases. The situation
in the various states named is thus
Indicated:
Farm tenantry in Oklahoma has
shown decrease of per cent dur
ing the ten years since 1910, accord
piled by H. H. Shutz, federal statis-
tician for the state. In 1910, farm
owners made up As per cent of the
tillerS of the soil, and renters 55
per cent, while now owners represent
50 per cent and renters 48 per cent.
Nearly every section of the state
showed a decrease in the number of
renters, according to Mr.. Shutz, who
based his report on returns from all
farms in the state, numbering ap-
proXimately $4,000. Mr.. Shut noted
a growing tendency on the part Of
renters to buy a small tract, from
ten to twenty acres, and rent adjoin-
ing land. He said high crop prices
have enabled many renters to swing
into the ownership column.
1.-THE percentage Of rented farms
has remained about the same and. in
a few cases. has increased somewhat
~ the southern half of Wisconsin, so
the economic condition there is not
different from the condition in the
corn belt states" Joseph A. Becker,
agricultural st2tistician at Madison
Wis, writes.
"However, the large number of new
farms being opened up in the north
ern part of the state. virtually all or
them operated by owners, has more
han Kept up the percentage of owned
farms. Summing up, there has been
some tendency toward an increase in
farm tenancy, but the opening up OF
rev farms operated by owners in the
northern part of the state has more
r.,an offset this in Wisconsin,"
Farm tenantry increased per cent
in Illinois in the ten-year period
from 1909 to 1919, according to fig
ures compiled by the state depart
ment of agriculture at Springfield.
Tenantry in 1919 was estimated at
45.5 per cent.

Little Profit in Furs
For Trappers This Year,
Trade Reports Show

Conditions affecting the fur mar
ket this season, according to re-
ports from principal centers of the
trade, are such that prices this
year will not repay the trappers'
efforts in going after a large catch.
Practically the entire 1919 catch
is still on the hands Of the deal
ers. unsold, it is reported, while
the present Tightening Of bank cred
it's makes it impracticable for the
important dealers to finance new
purchases, even if they deemed that
curse advisable.
To aggravate matters. according

trade, long and costly strike has
kept 10000 workers in the manu-
featuring end of the industry idle
since May. The strike is still in
effect, and operations, as a conse-
quence. have been tremendously
curtailed.
Last years high prices led to
huge catch. Failing off of demand
left something like $75,00O,0 600
worth of furs on the hands of the
dealers. The combination of cir
cumstances that mas arisen works
directly against the possibility of
profit in trapping activity this year,
according to the views of leaders
in the trade.

MANY PAY INCOME HERE.
Forty Per Cent Topckans Affected by
Revenue Tax, Estimate.

Fully 40 per cent of Topeka's male
wage earners will be obliged to fill out
income tax statements this year, &C
cording to estimates made at the local
internal revenue office in the federal
building. Income tax blanks by the
hundreds were received by Topekans

earners turning in statements in 1918
and the 40 per cent who must present
statements for 1919.
Married men receiving a net income
of $4,000 a year must file statements.
Single men with a net income OF
$1,000 a year must send their state

IN PLEA FOR UNITY
Final Sermon Given by Dean
Kaye at Grace Cathedral.
We Must Be Separated From
Sectarian Idea, He Says.
EXTREMES ARE NnI EEEEGIIVE
EXTREMES ARE NOT EFFECTIVE
Neither Rome Nor Protestant
ism Are Able To Do Work.
Maintenance of Convictions
Must Be Relied Upon.

A plea for a united church was
made Sunday by Dean James p. Deb.
Kaye, of Grace cathedral, in his SER
mon which concluded the series of
church unity services that have been
in progress several weeks.
Neither the extreme imperial con-
ception of Christianity as illustrated
by Rome, nor the federated movement
as illustrated by Professionalism, COM
prising the opposite extreme, can
bring about unity, Dean Kaye de-
clared, He pleaded for a separation
from the sectarian idea, but the main
tenance of convictions.
Three things he offered as the con-
tribution of the Episcopal church to
this much hoped for united church.
The first was the Book of Common
Prayer: the second, the church's sea-
sons, emphasizing certain points of this
earthly career of Christ. and the third
the Holy Communion. In the part the
Episcopal church may play in bring
ing about unity. Dean Kaye named
four points: First, the Holy Scrip
lures; second. the apostles creed;
third, the two sacraments of the
church-baptism and the Lords Sup
per-and fourth. the ministry.
Unity, One Thought.
"And now, lest we might misunder-
stand each other the dean said in
conclusion. IT want to say a word
about churcfS unity as I personally
view it. 7 do not say church union,
for as one has said: Because the
body of Christ is indivisible let us not
