Famous Papers In New Display
Newspapers of an earlier day and editorial cartoons on the general themes of Christmas, peace and traffic safety, feature the current display of the Journalism Historical center in the Journalism building.
One of the newspapers on display is a copy of the Essex Gazette, published at Salem, Mass. This newspaper carries the dateline: "From Tuesday, Dec. 28, 1773, to Tuesday, Jan. 4, 1774."
Other newspapers on display include a copy of the New York Herald for Wednesday, April 19, 1865, telling of the assassination of President Abraham Lincoln.
Also on display is the front page of the Emporia Gazette for Saturday, Jan. 29, 1944, which carries news of the death of William Allen White.
Cartoons on exhibit, all a part of the Albert T. Reid collection, have been chosen because their theme is closely related to the Christmas season.
The Journalism Historical center is open to the public from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily and until noon on Saturday.
The first plot of ground for Arlington National Cemetery, Arlington, Va., was appropriated by the government June 15, 1864.

More than 420,000 acres of land on approximately 2,800 of the state's 130,000 farms are under irrigation, according to a statewide inventory on agricultural uses of water recently completed by the Kansas Water Resources Fact-Finding and Research committee.
Research Group Surveys Irrigation
Dr. Frank C. Foley, director of the State Geological survey and chairman of the Water Resources committee, said that in some localities in western Kansas the livelihood of many farmers depends upon the reliability of water sources for irrigation of cash crops. Data obtained through the agricultural inventory can be invaluable, he said, in planning future irrigation projects.
Of the 2,817 farms with irrigation 615 had land under irrigation for the first time in 1954. More than 30,000 acres were under gravity or surface irrigation, and sprinkle-type irrigation was practiced on the remaining acres irrigated.
The inventory was made in collaboration with Kansas State college and federal agricultural agencies in the state.
