KANSAS ORCHARD OWNERS SHOULD BEGIN SPRAYING
Horticulturists Should Start Treatment of Fruit Trees at Once—Prof. S. J. Hunter
"Right now is the time for the farmers and fruit growers of Kansas to begin to get ready to spray their trees," said Prof. S. J. Hunter today. "The first spray should be put on when the blossoms have about half fallen off. This spray should be a mixture of lime sulphur and arsenate of lead. The trees should be thoroughly drenched and the operation should be repeated in about ten days or two weeks.
"To ward off seab or blotch the trees should be sprayed three weeks later with the Bordeaux mixture. This is all that is necessary and if properly applied will insure fruit without a defect."
The University carried on an experimental orchard for two years but this had to be dropped on account of the increasing work of the department. The experiment provided the value of the care of orchards.

"BILL" LOSES NINE LIVES IN FLY WHEEL ENCOUNTER
Engineers' Cat Gives Up Number of Ghosts as Machinery Catches Him Up
Bill, the engineers black cat, was caught in the flywheel of one of the big engines at the power plant and whirled to his death Tuesday afternoon. The accident was not discovers machines were stopped for the night.
Bill has been the pet of the engineers ever since he happened into the power plant one day about a year ago, a hungry stray cat. Loyal engineers have fought over who should be allowed the honor of holding Bill and stroking him during lectures. The little black cat had a warm place in every west-ender's heart. But now Bill is gone forever.
Pete, the older gray cat, remains to comfort the stricken students. A couple of years ago, Pete narrowly missed a seat in the same wheel that "finished" Bill.

MUNICIPALITIES AGITATE OWNERSHIP OF UTILITIES
Many Kansas Towns Voting Bonds For Water Works and Lighting Systems
Municipal ownership of water and lighting plans is an agitated question in Kansas just now. Due to a widespread belief that better rates and service can be obtained from municipally owned plants, all towns which have these utilities or which are providing for them are eager to know about the working of public ownership.
The municipal reference bureau of the university has had a great many inquiries lately from the smaller towns concerning water plants. The drought last summer undoed the effects of the need of a dependable source of water and many of the western towns are voting this spring for such plants.
One town of 250 people will vote on a bond issue of $12,500 for a water plant; another with 400 will vote on $30,000 for both water and light, and one town of 300 has already voted for both plants. The city of Lebanon, 750, recently completed an $18,000 plant and held a big celebration in which the neighboring towns took part.
Municipal water plants are becoming almost universal in Kansas 160 out of 175 plants being owned by the Department of Lighting facilities is also gaining in percentage. The present ratio is 72 out of 163 plants.
