- Denver. Colo.. April 3. Encourage
ment of the plan suggested by the rail
roads of planting experimental crops
long their rights of way as advertise
ment for the state, has been given by
United States Senator Thomas, in a
letter received by the publicity com
mittee of the Denver Real Estate ex
change. Senator Thomas declares that with
proper cultivation and careful selec
tion of crops, eastern Colorado can be
transformed into one of the highest
productive areas in Colorado. He tells
of a visit he made to Limon, Colo., last
fall, when he inauired into the dry-
farmin methods practiced by W. S.
Pershing, regarded as one of the most
successful dry farmers in the state.
The publicity committee of the Heal
Estate exchange has been making
preparations for an extensive cam
paign, not only for new settlers, but
for the proper instruction in scientific
methods of farming. With the co-operation
of the railroads in harvesting
experimental crops through the sec
tion traversed by their lines, it is Be
lieved that many of the failures, due
principally to a lack of proper guid
ance in dry farming methods, can be
eliminated in the future.
The letter from Senator Thomas fol
lows, in part:
"If the right of way of the railroads
Intersecting the arid counties of east
ern Colorado could be plowed deeply,
broken up and seeded to alfalfa, grain
and forage crops, the monotony of the
barren surface would be relieved, an
object lesson would be presented to the
vision of the traveler, the fertility of
the soil would be demonstrated mile
upon mile, capital would be attracted,
the homeseeker would find the object
of his search, and dry farming would
grow apace.
"'No better advertisement of our
great farming industry is possible. No
phase of agriculture in our state can
broaden and develop to the extent that
dry farming can be carried. Once it
becomes an established success, our
millions of acres in eastern Colorado
will at once become attractive and in
demand. Hence we shall all do all we
can to aid it.
"We have made an appropriation for
the National Dry Farming congress to
be held In Tulsa, Okla.. next fall, and
our state exhibit should be second to
none on that occasion.

General Western Agent of New York
Central Holds All Records.
More than a million miles of travel
is the record claimed by W. B. Jerome,
general western agent for the New
"W.rk Central lines. Few who heard
Mr. Jerome make the statement were
willing to believe it at first, but when
he had outlined his work and the
ground that he was required to cover
each year the claim seemed more rea
sonable. Since he has been working in his
present capacity, Mr. Jerome has been
traveling nearly 50,000 miles every
year, at which rate it would require
twenty years to cover 1,000,000 miles.
But Mr. Jerome started traveling in
1878 and has been going ever since
then. He was traveling passenger
agent for years until he was promoted
to his present position. Now he has
jurisdiction over all of the offices of
the New York Central lines north,
fsouth and west of his headquarters in
Chicago, including the agencies in
Canada.
Twice each year he goes from Chi
cago to San Francisco, Portland and
the northwest, then south to New Or
leans and Texas points and again as
far west as Los Angeles. Then he
goes north to Canadian points and to
the larger cities of the middle west.
He is never in his home office three
weeks at a time and. with his wife,
practically lives on Pullman cars.
MILITARY "POOL" IS BROKKX.
Southern, Union and Western Pacific
Causes New Method.
The military traffic pool of the
transcontinental lines will go to pieces
owing to the withdrawal of the South
ern Pacific, the Western Pacific and
the Union Pacific, and open bidding is
now assured.
The pool gave the rail carriers a di
vision of the business by according
them, in rotation, the privileges of
underbidding all their competitors
when it came their turn to carry the
traffic. Any one of them that ran be
hind was permitted to bid 25 per cent
lower than the others and in that way
-was sure of the award being made to
it for troops and supplies.
Simultaneously with this collapse
has come a break in the eastbound im
migrant pact. Western roads have
given notice that they will no longer
pay a commission of 10 per cent to
steamship agents for procuring third
class Transatlantic passengers, on the
haul from the west to the Atlantic
Feaboard points. It was decided upon

RIO GRANDE TO SPEND $250,000.
New Shops, Buildings and Terminals

Grand Junction. Col., April 3. Ac
cording to unofficial information, the
Denver & Rio Grande will soon make
announcement of the expenditure of
. - - ,3 ii : tw.
a quarter or a miiuuii ujhis im
provements in this city.
The improvements will consist of new
roundhouses, tracks and also machine
shops. The latter will be among the
largest on the main line of the Rio'
Grande and will be better equipped
than the shops at Burnham. The Rio
Grande has always had difficulty in
hauling its brokendown equipment
over the range to Pueblo or Denver,
and the shops to be built in this city
will be sufficiently equipped to handle
any piece of work. All repairs west of
the continental divide and east of Salt
Lake City will be handled here. The
cost of the new shops, buildings and
equipment will, it is said, be close to

SHARED PROSPERITY OF -WEST.
Santa Fe Had Good Balance for Divi
dends But Increased Stock.
The Santa Fe increased its dividend
disbursements almost on the eve of
the panic. For four years dividends
of 4 per cent were paid on the com
mon stock and in the fall of 1906 the
rate was advanced to 6 per cent. In
1908 the rate was reduced to 5 per
cent, but in 1909 the 6 per cent rate
was restored and has been continued
since. The Santa Fe has shared the
prosperity that has come to most west
ern roads, its gross earnings increas
ing from $90,617,796 in 1908 to $107,
752,360 in 1912. In the same five
years the balance applicable for divi
dends upon the common has almost
doubled, increasing from $7,970,196
to $13,951,551. The amount of stock
outstanding, however, was increased
so that the percentage earned upon
the common has increased only from
7.74 per cent in 1908 to 8.20 per cent

GRAY TO BE COACH
Oberlin Director to Succeed
' Driver at Washburn.
Will Begin Training of Foot
ball Team in Fall.
MADE CHAMPIONSHIP TEAMS
Gray Took 3Ianv Honors in the
Oberlin Territory.
Has Veteran Material to Work
Out for "Blue."
Glen Graj-. ex-coach of athletics at
Oberlin college, will succeed W. L.
Driver as coach of athletics at Wash
burn college. This announcement was
made late Wednesday and he will take
charge of affairs September 1. He
was the unanimous choice of the ath
letic board.
He has an excellent reputation as
a player and as a coach. He was a
letter man for three years at Oberlin,
a school of about 1,200 students. He
played at quarter and half and had a
good reputation all over that section
of the country. He was assistant to
Snyder of Harvard in 1910 and was
head coach at Oberlin in 1911. He
left Harvard on account of Snyder's
resignation. He has a champion foot
ball team to his credit. His team won
every game on its schedule in 1911 and
among the victories was one over the
team of his old coach. His team lost
but one game rast year and won the
state championship on percentage.
Oberlin defeated Cornell, for the first
time in years, on this occasion.
Coach Gray is an excellent basket
ball coach as well as in football, and
was captain of the basketball team in
his senior year. He has one cham
pion basketball team to his credit since
taking up the work of athletic coach
and played close for state honors this
year. He has been active in all lines
of field and track events. He has
considerable experience in gymnasium
worK in addition to his experience in
the major sports. He will have charge
or an athletics at Washburn.
Coach Gray will come to Washburn
with a long list of recommendations
and a fine record. Coaches and play
ers of the east tout him as one of the
best football flayers in that section
during his playing seasons and a num
ber comment on his ability as a coach.
He will have a chance to nresent a
championship team at Washburn college
inis ran. a number or last year s men
will be back including D. Rodgers,
Bearg. Wolfe. Whltcomb. Ream. Mvers.
Trobert, and Billings. Practically all of
tnese men will play positions in the line
and it will be up to the new coach to
build up a backfield out of last year's
freshman team, but there is a lot of good
material and it is believed this task will
be accomplished without much trouble.
Some of the available material which
looks promising are Elbe and Deaver at
quarter, Nlcolls at guard, O'Brien and
Beales at half.
A heavy schedule has been arranged by
the Washburn Athletic board and three
Missouri Valley games are included in the
list.- The following is the schedule:
Sept. 27 Freshmen vs. Varsity.
Oct. 4 Nebraska IT. at Iincoln.
Oct. 11 Ottawa at Ottawa. ,
Oct. 18 William Jewell at Topeka.
Oct. 25 Oklahoma A. & M. at Sterling.
Nov. 1 Normal at Topeka.

Nov. 15 Emporia at Emporia.
Nov. 20 St. Marys at St. Marys.
Nov. 27 K. S. A. C. at Topeka.
SPORT NOTES.
The training season of the various
teams is almost completed and the
weather, at present, is warm enough
to work out in practice in this section
of the country. The big leagues and
American association will begin their
championship schedule next week, and
If the weather will only continue!
Chick Brandom's luck appears to be
as bad as last year and the youngster
is having trouble to get in condition.
Manager Carr is looking for a place to
unload the "chicken" but it is likely
that it will be on some other team of
the American association. He can de
liver the goods if he will.
Don't forget to attend the Booster
club meeting at the Commercial club
at noon Friday. Get your John Henry
down on the list as a live wire and ap
propriate the necessary lucre for the
purchase of a ticket to the opening
game and give the club a little nest egg
to use a strengthening the team at
any time it is desired. If necessary.
Oklahoma City is springing the same
old gag and is asking for a berth in
the Western league. It will be re
membered that this same town failed
to support a team in the Texas league.
How can they " e expected to support
a team in the 'Western?
John J. McGraw . played baseball in
1891 on a contract which guaranteed
him his board, washing, shaving and
other expenses. The contract was lib
eral enough to allow him, and the
others who signed a similar contract,
to dissipate once a week to the extent
of smoking one, cigar. The contract
was with a club at Oscala, New York.
Bugs Herche. formerly a pitcher with
Des Moines and who is well known in
the Western I eague. has signed a con
tract to play with Binghamton. N. Y.
He was with Hastings, Neb., last year.
Stanislaus Zbyszko continues to
spread the salve about wanting to meet
Frank Gotch in a finish contest.
Wrestling fans are aware that he
wouldn't make any better showing than
the other foreigners and it is evident
that the Po'lish grappler continues his
cry with a hope that it will increase
the size of his meal ticket. The only
other thing that he could expect would
be to get an agreement for a contest
with the loser's end and that would
probably be more m'oney than he ever i
had at one time in his life. !
Walter Schaller has been sold to the !
White Sox by Detroit. This youngster
played with Kansas City a part of last
season and was sold to Detroit. He
injured his right leg while on the
southern training trip and this may
dampen his ambitions of the future.
He was one of the best hitters in the
American association last summer.
There are knockers and boosters,
fielders and booters but few raps.
Players often express a desire to rap'er
out but there w-ill be three teams on
the circuit which will always have one
rap to fall back on. Topeka "las a
Rapp at '"rst, Sioux City a Rapp at
catcher and Wichita has another Rapp
and it is contended that all of them
will deliver the goods.
Lefty Moggridge, formerly of Lincoln
and Baker Borton of St- Joseph, will
stick with the White Sox, but George
Johnson the Winnebago has trouble
with a chc -ing sensation when he was
on the training trip and back, back
to the minors.
John McGraw come through with a
denial concerning the- release of Jim
Thorpe and says that he will make
good. He brands the former rumors
as false and contends that they were
set broadcast without any authority.
Well Jawn, get as much as you can
and you can as long as the press agents
are on watch.
Red Corriden will ' cover the short
patch for the Cubs and Larry Cheney
will take his turn on the mound this
season. This department is certainly
pleased to hear this of familiar names
and faces.
"Chick" Hartley, who was purchased
by Manager "Ducky"' Holmes from
Spokane, refuses to report to Sioux
City, according to dispatches from Al
bany, N. Y. Hartley will play with
Wilmington in the Tri-State league,
says the report. This report is con
trary to the letters that Hartley wrote
to the Sioux City management early
in the season.
Sioux City Tribune: Big Bill McCor
mick is the slowest of all the Lincoln
outfielders in rounding into form. The
husky Chicago boy is carrying some
surplus weight and must work it off
before Manager Mullen will plant the
big outfielder in the garden as a reg
ular. But Big Bill is a rather handy
man to have about the premises. In
the Fort Worth series he was twice
sent to bat in a pinch and on both oc
casions he came through with safe
smashes. It was McCormick's drive
which broke up the Friday game in the
tenth frame and netted the Antelopes
their 1 to 0 victory.
Sioux City Journal: The dispatches
failed to state the attendance at the
Tulsa games. There is not a little in
terest in this. In the first place the
club owners are looking to the exhibi
tion games to make up the difference
between the cost of training at home
and down south. Furthermore, the
patronage in both Tulsa and Okla
homa City is supposed to furnish an
indication as to whether either town
could support a Western League team;
sort of feeling the public pulse, sp to
speak. Oklahoma City thus far has
been r lilcomtr.

Indian to Wrestle Hoffman.
Howling Wolf, a full blood Indian
wrestler, has signed to meet Lewis
Hoffman, the" Topeka wrestling line
man, at Kaw, Okla., the latter part
of the present month. Not much is
known here about Howling Wolf, but
the name is rather terrifying. He is
said to be a former Haskell student.
Hoffman has another Oklahoma
match for this month, meeting Jack
Fisher at Perry, Okla., the latter part
of April.
Saturday evening Hoffman will un
dertake to throw two Topeka wrest
lers, Jack Wood and Leo Johnson, in
an hour. This match will be staged
at Burlingame.
Jeff Smith Wins in Paris.
Paris, April 3. Jeff Smith, the
American middleweight pugilist,
practically knocked out the French
man Adrian Hogan, at the Cirque De
Paris. The end came in the eleventh
round. When Hogan was helpless on
the ropes his seconds sprang into the
ring and carried him out.
The bout was scheduled for twenty
rounds. Smith outclassed Hogan and
dropped him to the floor several times
with heavy swings. In the eleventh
Smith landed a terrific right, which
literally stunned the Frenchman, who
stood swaying with his arms hanging
at his sides unable to offer any de
fense to the rain of blows.

Lawrence, Kan., April 3. The first

Saturday the Jayhawkers will meet

part of the men who have been com
ing out steadily will be used in the
games in order to give the coach a
chance to see what they will do under
fire.

Kansas City, April 3. Josh Clarke,
veteran outfielder, who played in a
few games with the local team the
first part of last season, was released
unconditionally by Manager Carr, of

Clarke to the Sioux City, la., team of
the Western League last April. He is

LIFE INSURANCE COMPANIES
They Are Closely Observing Pnblic
Health Conditions w
An examining phyiscian for one of
the prominent Life Insurance Com
panies, in an interview on the sub
ject, made the astonishing statement
that the rson why so many appli
cants for insurance are rejected is be
cause kidney trouble is so common to
the American people, and the large,
majority of applicants do not even
suspect that they have the disease.
He states that Judging from his own
experience and reports from druggists
who are constantly in direct touch
with the public, there is one prepara
tion that has probably been more suc
cessful in relieving and curing these
diseases than any remedy known. The
mild and nealing influence of Dr. Kil
mer's Swamp-Root is soon realized. It
stands the highest for its remarkable
record of cures.
Swamp-Root- is strictly an herbal
compound and Dr. Kilmer & Co.
would advise readers who feel
in need of such a remedy to give it a
trial. It is on sale at all drug stores
in bottles of two sizes fifty cents and
one dollar.
However, if you wish first to test its
wonderful merits, send to Dr. Kilmer j
& Co., Binghamton, N. Y., for a sam
ple bottle, absolutely free.1 When writ
ing be sure and mention the Topeka
State Journal. Adv.
KAWS COULDN'T HIT.
Facing Tteal Pitching They Made 1
Run in 10 Innings.
Oklahoma City, Ok., April 3. Two
hits, a sacrifice and an error gave
Omaha a 2 to 1 victory over Topeka
in a thrilling 10 inning battle here.
The winning run came after the teams
had batted since the third round witn.
out a score and when the form dis
played by Kingdon and Fullerton. who
were the opposing moundmen, mdicat
ed an indefinite number of rounds yet
to come.
Omaha was the first to make the cir
cuit, Thomason scoring on Congalton's
smashing two bagger after he had
been walked with two down. A dou
ble to left by Gear at the opening of
the third followed by an error gave
Topeka her only marker.
In spite of a. high wind which handi
capped the men the game was replete.
with brilliant plays in tne neia
Grubbs, Shestake, Thomason and Neff
distinguishing themselves.
Gear Makes Beautiful Catch.
For the visitors Manager Dale Gear
made one beautiful running catch. He
threw two runners out at second in the
second inning after they had hit to
deep center for what they had thought
would entitle them to two sacks.
The individual hero of the game,
however, was Shestake, a recruit
catcher for Omaha, who hit safe three
times in four trips to the plate, pegged
two runners trying to steal second and
grabbed a high foul off the grandstand.
It was his single in the tenth which
started the winning rally and he
crossed the plate with the run neces
sary to break the tie.
In the five innings Kingdon was on
the mound for Omaha only one To
peka man reached first, McLarry,
singling to left in the ninth, but he
was never able to go farther.
