of Recent Storm.

The Easter blizzard in Mitchell
county didn't benefit the wheat crop
to any considerable extent according
TO Representative ]. o. (.Jack') Evans
who came to Topeka today TO attend
meeting of the state livestock board.
Evans trip was delayed several days
because of the big snow drifts.
THE wind was SO strong that the
snow drifted badly and was blown
from the wheat fields. providing little
moisture for the growing crop" Evans
said today. TT is probable that % per
cent Of the Mitchell county wheat is
failure"
Evans was recently appointed by
Governor Allen as a member of the
state livestock board. The Mitchell
county representative has served three
terms in the house and in the recent
sessions was rated as one of the strong
house members from the Sixth dis
trict. He is chairman of the house
educational committee, was one of the
strong supporters of the Burdick
stockyards bill and served on the re-
vision committee during the special
session. He is a candidate for the SEN
ate from the Mitchell-Jewell county
district and is generally doped as sue
cessor to Senator J. S. Hart, present
grain inspector, who is not a candi-
