MIXED SEED CAUSES GREAT
LOSS TO WHEAT GROWERS

That the majority Of the fields Of
winter wheat in Colorado are mixed
with winter rye is the opinion Of the
writer after trip through the wheat

OF this mixture is so bad that the
grower will be docked at the mill or
elevator on account of II. This years
loss due 10 this reason alone will
probably be close to 100000 Be
cause OF the fact that rye is so hard

loss is unredeemable. 4 similar loss
can be prevented in following years
with the use of clean seed and the
proper system of farming.
Absolutely clean seed should be
planted en- corn or fallow ground TO
prevent this mixing. The best kind
Of clean seed Is registered seed. This

HOW: :: !:
EARTH'S MOTION MAY BE
nENNEnNyCTvp rur, rNy ryfNNRI1i,

DEMONSTRATED IN HOME.
With a bowl Of water and some
powdered resin one may observe
the earth's motion. Select a
room that is fairly free from vi
bration. Then obtain a good
sized bowl or tub a foot or more
In diameter and rather deep, and
nearly fill 1t with water. Place
this on the floor Of the room In
such q position that 1t need not
be disturbed for some hours. Get
some finely-powdered resin and
sprinkle coating Of this on the
3 water. Any fine substance that
would float and not be dissolved
for some hours would do as well.
Next secure a little coal dust
and sprinkle some on the top Of
the resin In q straight line from
the center to the circumference.
Garry this line up over the rim
Of the bowl, and make 1t broad
enough to be clearly seen-say
about an inch In width. The bowl
may now be left for several
hours, at the end Of which time
1t will be noticed that an inter-
esting thing has happened. 1t
will be seen, writes s. Leonard
Bastin In the Scientific Amerl-
can, that the line Of the surface
Of the water has changed its po-
sltion and that 1t no longer
meets that which runs up over
the rim of the bowl. AS a mat
ter Of fact the black line on the
surface Of the water has swept
around from east to west.
What has happened is this:
The water in the bowl has stood
still throughout the time which
II has been left, while the vessel
itself has been carried around
by the motion Of the earth from
west to east. Another way Of
putting It is that the earth has
swung around throughn a consid-
cradle arc from west to east,
leaving the water quite station
ary.

MUCH WORK ATP.O.
Topeka Office Receives Reports
From 1,1OO Kansas Offices.
Many Changes to Check Up in
Internal Revenue Law.

Altho the holiday season is back in
the discard. Postmaster W. o. Rigby
admits there is still jam at the To-
poke postoffice. Topeka being the
central office for the state, the rush
az business incident to the beginning
Of the new year is responsible and
Rigby is further handicapped by
sickness. which is keeping from ten
20 fifteen members of his force at
home.
AS the central office in the state,
the Topeka postoffice is now engaged
in an accounting with the LOO other
postoffices in Kansas and this work
is much larger than usual owing to
the changes in the new internal reVe-
nue. law and also because the post
office department is adhering strictly
to the rule of reducing credits on &C
count of postoffice robberies. Rigby
says he does not believe the robberies
are more numerous than common al
tho three Kansas pOstOff.ces have
been entered and robbed during the
past few days.
No longer are revenue stamps nee
essary on parcel post packages. For
merly it was necessary to add / cent
of revenue for every rs cents of post
age on parcel post packages but the
ruling was changed, effective January
1, and as a result hundreds of offices
have been notified that the number
of revenue stamps they i'll be al
lowed to carry in stock is TO be re-
duced. All. proprietary stamps, used
on patent medicines. are being called
in as that tax has been removed. The
credits or stocks of documentary
stamps are also be ng reduced as they
are no longer required in many cases

The quarters of the district attorney

of rooms extending along the south

second floor. The only room suitable
for reception purposes. is located near
the east end. The rooms to the west

IN what had been used as a supply

The district attorney took one look
and sat down and dictated a letter to
Washington asking for a new carpet
IN due time came reply stating that
any holes in the linoleum on the floor
coulu oe patched ana tnal several odd
pieces Of the stuff were being sent for
that purpose. Whereupon Williams
dictated another letter to Washington

This week W. O. Rigby. custodian
OF the building, received instructions
TO have new Garnet and also a new
