RAIN N BOOST no. WHEAT
Livestock Prices Slightly Better Last
y Week


SNOW furries were reported from
eastern and central Kansas during
the last week but the beneft from
these were very slight, according to
the report of the State Board or
Agriculture. Sedgwlck county, how
ever, reports half inch OF rain and
Clark county about three -fourths OF
an inch which has been Of great
help to the growing wheat In these
counties. In Clark county while
growth has started following the
rain, the wheat Is not yet showing
above ground enough to determine
how much re-seeding will be neces-
sary. Reno and surrounding coun-
ties report wheat sprouts still alive
and rains or heavy snow before
spring winds start will prevent soil
blowing which Is feared with ground
in its present condition. Aside from
portions of the state where rain fell
last week the soil is still dry and
moisture is needed.
Temperatures have been moderate
during the week although frost Is
still In the ground. Flowing Is be-
Ing done In eastern and southeastern
parts Of the state.
Livestock generally Is healthy ana
prices seem to be slightly better than
a week ago.

had seen or heard nothing to sub
stantiate such charges. Flynn said
Rufus Hubbard, of New York, who
testified he saw bodies with rope and
cap intact was chronic trouble
maker. Richard G. Sullivan, Somer-
