DUST STORMS
A BLESSING
BY JAMES L. KILGALLEN


NEW YORK, May IS O.N.S0.
An optimistic message concerning
condition in the Middlewest
was voiced today by Louis Levand,
publisher Of the Wichita (Kansas)
Beacon, who is in New York on a
business trip.
Mr.. Levand in an interview said
the dust storms have proved to
be "a blessing in disguise" be-
cause they showered excellent fer.
tilization from the nations dust
bowl" on to productive farms over
. wide area.
He also pointed out that Kansas
has been getting a good deal OF
rain recently, improving the win
ter wheat crop.
General business conditions are
picking up" Department stores
In wichita show a so per cent in
crease In their business. over a
year ago and chain stores a 80
per cent improvement.
Mr.. Levand declared that last
year the farmers within a 1O5-
mile radius of wichita had the
largest wheat crops in the past
10 years. So far this year enough
moisture has fallen to insure "at
least as big crops as last year"
Describing a particularly severe
dust storm which blew up over
US from Oklahoma and Texas"
Mr.. Levand said:
you couldn't see 10 feet
ahead Of you in the daytime it
was so dark"
He attributed the recurring dust
storms to over-ploughing Of large
stretches Of what was formerly
grazing pastures-buffalo grass,
they called it.
Mr.. Levand said the once solid
pasture land became pow6ery as
a result Of the drought Of the
last few years. Along came the
windStorms- more severe than
in previous years-and blew this
dry silt over the productive farms
in other localities.
Generally speaking the farmers
Of Kansas are in good shape, &C.
cordihg to Mr.. Levand. He said
there are $4,000 oil wells in Kan
Sas, and farmers who have had
had luck with crops still have an
income on royalties from oil wells
which are becoming increasingly
more productive.
