After all, the common wild sunflow er of Kansas is jibl ii useless weed, find attempts by scientists to make it anything else so far have failed.' Last fall b'li t?>ns of wild sun flow ers Mere put Into :t silo between lay ers of corn silage by the dairy depart ment of the Kansas State Agricultural college. A feeding* test was arranged early In (ho winter. Five cows were fed wild sunflower .silage, alfalfa hay and a grain mixture consisting' of four parts corn chop, t\Vo (mm and one .part oil mcsil. Previous to the be ginning of the feeding lest the cows had received corn silage in addition to the hay and grain. When changed to the sunflower sil age they ate sparingly of it and failed to become accustomed to It. The cows decreased In milk production and lost body weight. The average, loss of for the 21 days the test was conduct ed. Kucli had decreased .'{.-j pounds in daily production of milk by the end of the period.

The Inventor of the system is a butcher's son, who employs his birds regularly to carry orders from outlying districts ? presumably where there are no tele phones?to bis father's shop. The plan works excellently. When the boy goes tu collect orders he takes six of his fastest birds' In a trap with him. After he has gone a mile or two and collected a dozen or ders he liberates a pigeon with' the slips Inclosed In a little metal case attached to the bird's foot. Before five minutes have elapsed these or ders are In the shop. At the various stages of his round, which usually takes three hours, the other birds with 'more orders are set free, and by the time the shop is reached all the orders receive FTT>y this pigeon post have been dispatched.
