Bankers in Kan, No., Neb., and

Manhattan, Kan, Aug. Bankers
of Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska and
Oklahoma are cooperating with farm
ers of the four states in controlling

tainsd in a letter sent to each bank

first letters were sent out, requests for
large numbers, ranging from so to
1900 copies, have been received by the

trolling the insect are as follows:

under deeply as soon as practical after
harvest all wheat stubble except fields
in which there is good stand of
clover.
2. Prevent the fly from escaping by
following the plow with a harrow,

plowed ground after rains during the
summer and fall to keep down the
volunteer wheat.
4. Wait to SOW the wheat crop until

Rear Admiral Washington L. Caps.

that the papers about to be read had
been prepared before Secretary Hughes
set the world spinning in an opposite
direction.
Il, He chung to the naval disarmament
phase OF his speech long enough, how
ever, to say that the adoption Of Secre-
tary Hughess plan would, raturally,
have most serious effect on ship building
in America, inasmuch as it would mean
the dismantling of some of the large
hipyards-especially those plants de-
voting most of the time to the construc-
ton OF warships.
Papers were read by Rear Admiral w.
