BOOSTING THE KANSAS WHEAT
Editor Southwestern Miller Tells
What Happens In Flour

What Happens III TlOuT
Samuel SOsland, one Of the best
known writers on financial topics in
the Southwest and editor OF the
Southwestern Miller, Kansas City,
spent the day in town. Mr.. Sosland
is ma king the paper most creditable
representative Of the millers in hits
section and Is engaged in advancing
the interests of the wheat Of Kansas
in the Eastern trade territory. "The
Eastern buyers, bakers and others
have been educated to think that the
best flour comes from the North
west" said he, because that has been
hammered into them for years. They
do not know that the mills Of the
Northwest buy Kansas wheat, ship 1t
to Minneapolis and blend 1t with
their own wheat to get their grade OF
flour-and incidentally get a higher
price for it because Of the advertising
they have DONE, We propose to tell
them.
"This is a wonderful country around
Abilene. Your farms and your hard
surfaced roads make this look like
an agricultural paradise and the peo-
pie who are building up this county
are certainly living up to their op-
portunity."
The Southwestern Miller is only a
few months old but it has taken
place in the forefront Of the milling
journals Of the country and deserves
the support of the flour makers, for
it is their real spokesman for inter
ests they have not had proper rep
resents ton heretofore.

WHERE EAST MEETS WEST
Tourists From Al! SS..iions Pass
Through Here


Americans at play-many hun
dreds of them-are coming through
here in a motley procession Of auto
mobiles this summer.
They stop for the night at the
tourist camp, cook their meals, sing
and swap experiences about their
camp fires and in the morning pass
on. They are to be found on all the
national highways that thread the
country and on the by-roads as well,
chasing romance over the next hill
top and around the nearest curve all
the way from Boston, Mass, to
Seattle-down to California and
back across the South.
Its a far cry from these to their
nomadic forbears lwho drove their
herds before them over the pastures
of northern Europe hundreds Of
years ago, but the same lure Of
strange trails and new places which
drove the ancestors is driving the
wanderers Of today.
The tourists who pass through
here travel west over the Union Pa
cific highway from all the territory
between Abilene and the Atlantic
and from far down south. They
travel east from southwestern Can
ada and the Pacific coast states.
They say they are going to Seattle,
California, Yellowstone Park or to
New York or Washington, d. G. But
their leading motives is to be on
their way-n0t to arrive.
The women folk for the greater
part wear knickers or boomers and
wrap leggings or golf stockings. All
of those wanderers who stop at the
camp carry tents. Many are equipped
with gasoline stoves while others
use the brick fireplaces of the camp
ground on which to cook their meals.
Most of the cars used are Of the mod
erately priced varieties, but not all.
One party, travelling in two cars OF
the costliest manufacture came
through recently. These carried
refrigerator with their equipment.
There is an air Of cOmradeship
among the tourists. A hail serves
as a presentation, and introductions
are dispensed with. After supper,
tourists frequently gather about the
camp fires to tell Of the days exper-
fences and fight mosquitoes, even as
their shepherd forbears did centur-
les ago-but unlike these they also
compare tires, mileage and motors.

CONTEST COURTS POWER
Friendly Suit Is Filed In Wage Con-
trOversy

A friendly suit, contesting the
power Of the state court of Industrial
relations to attempt to fix mini
mum wage in Kansas, was filed in
the district court at Topeka by the
Associated Industries Of Kansas, in
the names of three members. The
petition asks a restraining ORDER
against the enforcement Of the
court order Of May 10, fixing min
imum wages in a number of indus
tries. The order specified that it go
into effect sixty days after issuance,
or July Is.
The main argument set forth I'm
the employers petition Is that the In
dustrial court exceeded its powers;
that the state law specifies evidence
must show that women workers
were living or working in conditions
detrimental to their health and vel
fare, and that such causes were due
to an inadequate wage, before the
court may attempt to Ok a standard
wage.

HARRY LADysk CAR BURNS '
Spark From the Wiring Ignited Oil
and Gas.

The Overland car belonging to
Harry Lady was totally destroyed
by fire Saturday evening. Mr.. Lady
was coming to Enterprise and when
about two miles from town. his
brother noticed that the mat on the
floor Of the car was on fire. The
mat was thrown from the car i'm
mediately but the fire had ignited
from the engine and the entire front
of the automobile was on fire. The
blaze spread rapidly and II was inn
possible to save anything but spare
tire which was carried on the rear.
Mr.. Lady does not know how the
fire started but 1t is thought that
possibly sparks from he engine ig-
nited the oil and gas on the car.
Mr.. Lady carried some insurance
on the car but sufficient to
cover only a part Of the loss.-En-
terprise Journal.

-L.M.T.-
DRUMMERs COPIED 2z-lo GAME
--L.M.T.-

L
The much beaten Abilene team alb
sOrbed some more punishment yester-
day afternoon when they took another
on the chin already badly bruised
from other recent thumpings. going
down for count Of 22 to 10 at the
hands OF the Salina Drummers. The
numerals furnish true line on how
the two teams looked I'm the hitting
bee. The only answer for the set
back the locals received Is that they
lacked about everything essential to
victory as far as the defense is con-
cerned. The pitching sagged badly
during the entire game, which lasted
until almost dark, and the fielding
was none too sharp, many costly err
ors being charged to the locals when
men were on the paths. II 1t had not
have been for the work Of LOrbeer,
Armstrong and Sampson, who stood
up well under the onslaught Of the
foes, 1t Is more than likely that the
invaders score would have been
around the half century mark. Lor-
beer, especially, played a sensational
game behind the bat and also an
nexed a circuit clOut, two two-baggers
and a single In five times ut the plate.
When team is weak In the
box and messes up plays at critical
times there Is only one answer unless
the other team Is worse In the same
departments-and they weren't. In
fact the invaders were exceedingly
brilliant at times and despite the
heavy toll Of base hits garnered of
Kahut, the visitors were never In
danger Of being overtaken.
Anderson started on the rubber
for Abilene and went well until the
fifth inning, holding the visitors to
four hits in as many frames, errors
being responsible for the visitors tai
lies up to this time. But the Drum
mers wrecking crew got busy with
their clubs at this point in the game
and showed five runners over before
they could be subdued. Then Little
was called on to pull the game out
)f the fire, Allgire shifted to third,
tones to left field and Sidesinger to
light. But this combination worked
40 better and the Drummers went
light along with their destructive
,tick work, nicking Pete for five tai
les in the sixth, three in the seventh,
wo In the eighth and three in the
linth,
Kahut looked no better than the
Abilene mound entrants, and was
hit hard and often, the locals cleaning
ixteen safeties off his delivery, in
luding home runs by Lorbeer and
Illgire, a triple by Neeley and a
luster of doubles. But it must be
aid right here that the home lads
we're somewhat crippled by the alb
ence Of Buchanan and Taylor from
he infield, where they are stellar I
performers, and had they been In
heir regular places the result might
ave been different.
