-The Kansas senate has passed a bill to give the votersof the state an opportunity to vote directly on the nomination for President and Vice President and the direct election of the delegates to the national party conventions. The bill provides for a presidential primary the first Tuesday in April of years when the President is to be chosen.

The instructions to the "delegates to the national conventions are bound by the instructions of the voters. Henry Koehn of Galva Invests Money Given Him by Father for Educational 'Purposes. The short Cut to high finance is the route taken, by Henry Koehn, as unsophisticated farmer boy of Galva, in McPherson county. Last September Henry's father gave him $250 and some good advice.

"Now, Henry," he said, "Here's $250, You ought to get a year's education with this. Go to Hutchinson, enroll in the business ccllege and get a good place to board. Of course, you can't have any extras on this, but be a good boy, study hard and write home often." Last week 20-year-old Henry rolled into the home-barn lot in a racing roadster. He was attired in a tailor made suit atfd wore diamonds. After he had kissed the members of his family and they had admired the motor car he showed dad a fat balance in the bank.

When Henry Koehn came to Hutchinson last September, he did not -enroll in the local business college, instead he( bought wheat. A local grain man whom he knew bad told him to do this the first afternoon he. was In town and Henry thought the advice was better than father's. The grain man coached the boy on how to keep buying and selling, and the $200 soon grew to a thousand. Henry reserved $50 for living expenses.

The thousand was spread over wheat deals which brought quick returns and when the farmer's son sold outi when wheat reached $1.50 there in the local market, his gains amounted close to $7,000. or bowels; how much your head aches, how miserable and uncomfortable you are from constipation, Indigestion, biliousness and sluggish, bowels you always get the desired results with Cascarets.

The warm weather of the past week has brought out the canker worms. If the weather continues to moderate for a few days the canker worms will commence their work upon the shade trees, warns George A. Dean, entomologist in the Kansas State Agricultural College. The spring canker worm has killed more Kansas apple trees in one season than the San Jose scale has killed in its entire history in the state, while at the same time the worm has attacked thousands of elm and other shade trees. Here are some simple and practical methods of preventing these losses.

It is often impossible to spray shade trees, so Professor Dean recommends this remedy for shade trees and advises that it be applied immediately. Take a strip of cotton two Inches wide and long enough to go around the trees. Over this cotton place a strip of tarred paper or building paper slightly wider than the cotton. Fasten the paper -tightly over the cotton with four or five tacks. The cotton is used to prevent the forms from going under the paper band.

Some sticky, substance such as -printer's ink, coal tar, pine tar, or dendrolene should be smeared upon the paper. The best preparation to use is called tree tanglefoot.
