Police also are finding that many of the city's dogs are enjoying freedom when confinement should be in order. Officers are called daily to tell some person to tie up his dog.
While the ordinance always has been unpopular with many dog owners it is on the books and will enforced. city officials say. The principal objection to dogs right at present lies in the fact that they insist upon digging in the spring gardens which dot the city. This is the prime reason for the confinement of dogs in Wichita for three months each spring. The city asks that the public cooperate in enforcement of the ordinance and keep the animals tied during the next two months.

CROP Kansas Farmers Sitting on Top of World with Large Yield Now Indicated OTHER STATES SUFFER After scanning the government crop report and the high in wheat yesterday, Wichita grain men began to hope for a similar to 1924 and 1925, with wheat at $2 a bushel and practically every state but Kansas short of the grain. about at Chicago, July May wheat closed yesterday, at about a cent lower.
With the government report at 68.8 per cent for the nation's condition, it is expected to jump to at least $1.45 today by the majority of Wichita dealers. Against the rather showing of the rest of the country Kansas is showing up better than average, with private estimates of grain dealers and other experts putting the crop at a possible 150,000,000 bushels to rival the bumper production of 1926. Kansas shows a good condition, 84 per cent, with an estimated acreage of 13,500.000 for the highest total yet. With all of this acreage, there is little news of section in bad shape as yet and one or two more rains will virtually assure a huge crop. West to Dodge City conditions are splendid with a good growth due to plenty of moisture and much mild weather, while on west they are not bad.
Only northwestern Kansas is really in bad shape and the acreage there will only yield on about a fifth or sixth of the total sown. In respect conditions every, according to practically, the observations of grain men. That year the $2 a bushel grain brought good returns to many farmers in Kansas, while other sections were short. It was during 1925 that the high mark was reached and many expect this price to be approached, for the Southwest is good, while the East has little wheat and the South is not a serious factor in production. Around Wichita and in its territory the plantings are the largest ever with an increase of about or 5 per cent.
Corn probably will show a little increase, although not as much as predicted at first on account of the smaller abandonment of wheat. Prices on corn at present have done well to hold around the top as closely as they have, dealers report, for this is usually regarded as a poor month for corn. GOOD WHEAT CROP SEEN FOR KANSAS A winter wheat outlook for southern and southeastern Kansas characterized as "very good" and a favorable report for the entire state is contained in the first of the semimonthly crop bulletins which the Rock Island railroad issues each year during the spring and early summer. Wheat acreage in the Wichita territory is at least 5 per cent greater than last year and present indications that abandonment will be well below the usual 10 per cent average, the bulletin states. Rain and snow during March contributed to a greatly improved outlook.
Stocks of wheat still on the farm as of March 1 show a decrease from the stocks at the same time last year of 3,150,000 bushels in Kansas and 5,372,000 bushels in Oklahoma.

Winter wheat in the central, northern and northwestern sections is coming along nicely, except in a limited area west of Norton county. A large acreage has been seeded in the central and northern section and some of it is up to a good stand. Acreage of Kaw Valley potatoes is about 10 per cent greater than last year.
