FACTS ABOUT KANSAS

Kansas is 400 miles long and has a
gently rolling surface which rises
from $50 feet above sea level at the
Missouri river to an elevation of more
than 1000 feet at the western border
where the mountains are approached.
With a breadth of 200 miles from
north to south this state possesses
such variation of soil and climate
conditions as afford unusual oppor-
tunities to the farmer and livestock
grower.
The GRASSY quadrangle" called
Kansas is the largest producer of
wheat in the union and is first in
alfalfa, third in the grain sorghums
and fourth in the acreage of corn,
the staple foods of both man and
beast which are produced nowhere
else more cheaply. Her unrivaled

The Rotary Club

Ernest Evans was chairman al
Tuesdya's luncheon. Mr.. Troy and
Mr.. Fellers were guests. A new men,
ben Abe X. Stoufer, received in
structions, and Mr.. Fellers gave Sc
lection on the piano.
The real interest of the session was
the talk on Service by Mr.. Troy. The
people of the Balkans were always
ready for war. In 1914 when the
Crown Prince of Austria was killed
on Servian soil by an Austrian, not
Servian, the excuse that Austria
had seemed to be waiting for was
taken advantage of and the World
War began. Of the 100000 Servian
soldiers retreating from Belgrade be-
cause they were hopelessly outnum-
bered only 10000 reached the Adri-
attic. About the year 1400 the Turks
overran all that country and got as
far into Austria as Vienna where they
were stopped. Many Servians were
converted to Mahommedism and the
Mahommedans in Servia are not
Turks, but Servians. In the final
settlement of the late war Servian
territory was enlarged so that the
population was increased from about
five million to ten or twelve million.
The Greek church is the State re-
ligion, but there are many Roman
Catholics and Mohammedans.
Mr.. Troy visited his native country
last summer to see whether a way
could be found to help his people. He
learned that there were $4,000 or
phans being cared for by relief or
CARNATIONS, aided to some extent by
the state, but that the voluntary re-
lief was about to be withdrawn for
lack of funds to carry on, and his en-
deavor will be to raise money to keep
it going.
The housing problem there is the
same as here, and special privileges
are given those who build residences.
To show to what extent the rate of
exchange affects prices he cited the
estimate of putting up building for
rekef work, 6Ox90 feet, four stories
and basement, built wholly of stone,
with tile roof, the price to be $751;
100000 in American money.

hard winter wheat is unique and of
this Kansas is the largest producer of
any political unit in the world.
Ranking eighth among the states
in the number of cattle, this state is
the center of the second largest meat
packing industry in the world while
the value of her poultry products has
doubled in the last ten years and her
dairy products have increased 80 per
cent in the same time.
Kansas people own their homes.
Only rs per cent of Kansas farm
land is owned by non-residents and
tenancy has increased only eight
tenths of one per cent in the last ten
years.
There are only four states east of
the Mississippi river in which the per-
centage of owned homes is larger
than in Kansas, while the farm mort
gage Indebtedness of this state is 3.2
per cent less than that of the country
at large.
For the economical production of
general farm crops Kansas will COM
pare favorably with other states,
while dairying, poultry raising and
livestock production offer attractive
opportunities and the growing sys-
tenn of hard surfaced roads, with her
splendid railroad service, brings her
within easy reach of excellent mar

TENT CATERPILLAR
MENACE INCREASING
Larger Number of Nests Indicate :
Serious Outbreak by Pest in
Near Future

Tent caterpillar nests are appearing
throughout the state Of Vermont in
much greater numbers than was the
case last season. according to the re.
port OF Harold l.. Bailey. in charge of
insect suppression for the Vermont
Department of Agriculture, and that
department re.terates its previous
warning to the effect that the insect
is making rapid progress toward one
OF its serious outbreaks. The last
such outbreak occurred in 1895.
when almost every apple tree in the
state except those carefully sprayed,
suffered from the attack of the pest,
and the landscape was made insight.
ly by the tents spreading over the
branches of apple and wild cherry
trees.
That situation is bound to be re.
peated within few seasons unless
concerted action is taken to head Il
/ off, The recurrence of such great
numbers of the insect may in large
measure be prevented If those who
have apple and wild cherry trees will
while the insects are still within
! bounds, crush or burn the masses OF
caterpillars, and If people passing over
country roads az this season will take
pains to destroy at least few of the
tents they see on the roadside tree,
and bushes. This work might espe
clally commend itself TO Boy Scouts
and school boys in general
Each tent generally contains NOR,
than hundred caterpillars which
II unmolested, develop into moths II
June, and as each female moth lay
about two hundred eggs. Il is clea
that the destruction Of the occupant
of one tent right now is equivalent I,

ing two or three years from now.

HITS WAGON AND TRUCK
Not Much Damage Sustained by
Any One Of Three
Vehicles

An unruly Chalmers touring car
caused considerable excitement on
Main street this morning when the
driver, Richards Kellogg of Old Ben.
nington, backed into a horse owned
by George Hummer The animal
naturally became frightened and
cleared itself Of the wagon to which
1t was hitched breaking the harness
and shafts Kellogg instantly shut
off the ignition and ran to the horse
which had started up the sidewalk
toward the Checkerline market.
Hummer appeared and the horse be-
hayed remarkably well once it realiz
ed the imminent danger had passed.
kellogg then apparently switched
on the ignition to drive ahead so
that the horse could be rehsrness-
ed. He tried t.le starter but to no
ayaii because he had neglected to
restore the shift to neutral. He did
not sense his mistake and jumped
out to crank the machine which
started with the first turnover and
backed WITH alarming rapidity in
semi-circle toward j. G. Jensens
shop. The further wheels mounted
the sidewalk before Kellogg found
his place and applied the brakes. AS
it was the car luckily missed tele-
phone pole in its wild antic but did
hit one of the front mud guards on
PIT as truck. The damage TO the
Ter was slight.
The Chalmers was the property Of
the Putnam house garage and Mr..
Kellogg was driving 1t while his
own machine was being repaired.
Mechanics from the garage we're
summoned and drove it from t'le
sidewalk. The car sustained a pune
tured tire and a bent rear mud
guard.
Mr.. Hummer and several volunteer
assistants repaired the shafts and
broken straps after fashion and
rehainessed the horse The dam
age to the wagon was slight.
