Commeree as a Profession

1.-The time has come" said Chancel-
Tor Lindley of the University of Kan
sas, last week, in his inaugural adj
dress, ''when we must recognize COM
merce as a profession. We must train
young men and women for business
if the United States is to take her
proper place in the business of the
world"
These words, uttered by the head
of one of Americas greatest institu-
tions, are significant. Education is
taking different trend Educators
are trying to put more subjects into
our, curriculum that are disable and
helpful. Chancellor Lindley's words
mean much to the business people of
Kansas and after all, there is a bust
ness side to every profession.

KNIFE WEEDERS
New Model 21' Is Now Ready

Twenty-one years ago, Mr.. Clayton
lived on a farm and made his first
knife weeder. It had wooden run
ners, the knives were hard to adjust,
it was heavy and pulled hard, but it
did good work. Every year that he
stayed on the farm he made a new
model, aiming to decrease the draft,
increase the strength and decrease
the weight, and make all adjustments
simple and easy. Steel runners re-
placed the wooden runners, and from
year to year important improvements
were placed on the machine, mate
rally increasing its efficiency and
value. While on the farm, Mr.. Clay
ton worked up quite business max
ing these machines and selling them
to his neighbors. After he left the
farm he still continued to make a
new model every year, until he has
now perfected his ''New Model 21''
for the coming season. This new
model is mighty fine machine for
killing weeds and saving moisture in
any listed field, and it would hardly
seem possible that any further i'm
provements could be made upon it.
1.-The Weeder Factory, Hill City,
Kan.," is where this machine is now
made, and any farmer, within driV-
ing distance of the factory, can easily
take his car to Hill City and haul one
home. They are so easily taken apart
that two of the double-row machines
are frequently hauled in Ford car
The One-roW machine weighs 95
pounds, the two-row $50 pounds, and
the three-row $50 pounds. The one
row machine sells for $50, the two
row for $50, and the three-row for
$50. These prices are for machines
without eveners, and with 4-foot side
knives. Longer knives can be fur
nished as extras, and also eVeners, if
desired. Most farmers have all the
eveners that are necessary for these
machines. All of the older models
will be discontinued after this sea-
son. Two-row machines of last years
model may still be had, while they
last, at $500 to $1,000 less than the
above prices.

Wheat Day at the Fort Hays Expert
ment Station

w Lay az the OEA nays
ment Station
The annual Wheat Day will be held
at the Fort Hays Experiment tSation,
June Is. The visit to the experiment
al plots will begin at $50 p. m. Wis
itors will meet at the office and will
be conducted over the fields by the
men in charge of the projects.
The work to be seen is variety tests
of wheat, rate of sending tests, date
of seeding tests, methods of seed bed
preparation, rotations, etc. There are
some interesting and outstanding con-
trasts to be observed.
One outstanding feature is the re-
sistance of Kanred to rust. The re-
cent wet weather has caused many
varieties to rust badly but Kanred
wheat is practically free from all
signs of rust.

July Is, 1891


This year as our county is enjoy
ing good crops, plenty of rain, an
abundance of fruit and vegetables,
some hail and lightning, it seems we
are to have everything and miss
nothing. Last Friday eve We had
full fiedged cyclone with its attendant
destruction.
Early in the evening a storm struck
our county accompanied by some hail
and about o'clock centered over
Harry Saxton's ranch, miles west of
town, accompanied by a fierce rumbl-
ing noise.
Finally it broke in the draw just
south of his residence, forming a
cyclone fifty feet wide, accompanied
by an immense ball of fire, and driv-
ing down the draw first struck the
handsome residence of Saxton, en-
tirely destroying the kitchen, scatter
ing it to the winds, the main building
being entirely lifted from its founda-
ton, badly working it, their house
hold furniture being badly damaged,
and $4,000 viii hardly repair his
damage.
Seeing it coming both rushed to
the cellar, so were only slightly in
jured. Mrs. SaXton narrowly escaped
drowning in the cistern, the cover
having been torn off, unknown to
them.
Cook Pritchett had gone to the
barn on an errand so escaped, FORUM
ately the handsome barns escaped I'M
touched.
On down the draw it rushed and
encountered the home of George
Tipp, our brickman, completely de-
molishing it and leaving nothing but
the hole in the ground. Tipp is in
Colorado working, and luckily Mrs.
Tipp and the children were at a
neighbor's helping thresh, or all
would have been killed.
On down the draw, next crushing
the pump of R. B. Thomas and Just
missing his stone house.
Onward-but hold, nature had
raised an impossible barrier, the
rock-ribbed bluffs of Hog-Back, the
ball of fire striking it and flying into
thousand pieces, making a display
like a Fourth of July pin-wheel.
Hundreds have visited the scene
of destruction and all rejoice that no
lives were lost.
Our county never had a cyclone
before and never wants another.
Many of the men around town
have been out in the country helping
in the harvest field. 81 a day and
board proves too much to resist in
these hard times.
So much grain to cut and the risk
of hail and storm caused many of
our farmers to run their harvest
machinery last Sunday. Even good
church members could not be re-
strained from helping draw the suffer
ing humanity out of the ditch of dan
ger.

FORT HAYS EXPERIMENT STA
TON NOTES

] J. Allen Clark, AgronOmist in
charge of the western wheat investi-
cations, U. S. Department of Agri-
culture, and Prof. j. H. Parker, in
charge of Crop Improvement, Kan
sas State Agricultural College, were
Hays visitors Saturday, for the pur-
pose of inspecting the cereal work
conducted by A. F. Swanson and A.
L. Hallsted of the Experiment Sta
ton. Mr.. Clark left on the evening
train for Chico, California, to visit
the experiment station there. Pro-
fesor Parker returned to Manhattan,
Sunday morning.
Farmers and others who are inter
ested in small grains will find them
in just the right stage of growth and
maturity for study on wheat Day"
which will be held Saturday after
noon. This will be an excellent time
to make comparisons between var
ieties and different tillage methods.
a number of farmers are expected to
be present. Parties will be conducted
over the experimental plats at 1880
p. m. by the members in charge of
the work.
Pure fields of Kanred wheat are
being inspected this week in Ellis
County by the Kansas Crop Improve
ment Association. Applicants for in
spection of Kanred wheat are: The
Fort Hays Experiment Station, John
R. Chittenden & Son, P. ]. Deane of
Hays; H. Albrecht & Son, Natoma,
and w. NJ. Nelson of Ellis.
Because of the extended rainy per-
iod a great deal of leaf rust has
developed on some of the varieties
grown on the experimental plats.
Kanred however is again showing re-
narkable freedom from rust, not only
on the station but in the different
fields throughout the county wher-
ever it has been planted. Because of
its freedom from rust it is believed
that Kanrd will show an increase in
yield.

BEGIN FIGHT ON
TREE WORMS NOW
Radical Steps Needed to Kill Pest
That Threatens Dis
trict.

Joplin, March 16.-Because of the
mild winter and prospect for a warm
spring, j. H. Mote, county agent, eX-
pects tree worm and other destructive
insects to be more numerous than in
many years previous.
"The bag worms, which are the
worst pest we have here" MIR. Mote
said yesterday, "are about ready to
hatch out on the trees and | expect
other varieties to appear"
Mr.. Mote said tnaC bags may now
be seen attached to trees near the
tender ends of branches. They hang
by a web. In these bags are from
five hundred to five thousand eggs,
each of which will later become a
"bag worm" and feed on the leaves.
Spraying will do little good" Mr.
Mote said. "Even when the female is
in the bag, laying her eggs, the head
will be drawn in and the spray avoid
ed. The only way to rid trees OF
these pests is to cut off all of the
bags that are hanging. These can lie
plainly seen before leaves come out.
The bags should be burned"
Each tree so cleared of bag worms.
he said should be protected by six or
eight inches of "tanglefoot," put on
the trunk about eight feet from the
ground, high enough to be out OF
reach. This will prevent worms from
back up the trees. Mr.. Mote
advises that all precaution be taken
now before the leaves come out, as
then it will be too late. Had it been
a cold winter, he said with rains,
SHOWS and freezes many of the bag
worms would have been killed OH the
trees.
