KANSAS WANTS HELP
Strong Appeal Made For Aid
in Fields During Wheat
Harvest
THOUSANDS OF HANDS NEEDED
State Employment Agent Claims the
Railroads Are Partly to Blame for
the Scarcity of Laborers, Having
Refused to Give Harvest Ratc-Want
tho Help Themselves.

Topeka, kas., June 1s.-kansas is
sending out the strongest appeal of her
history for men to work In the harry
est fields The difficulties of the last
few years in getting enough help To
garner the wheat before it becomes
dead ripe and scatters in the gath :
erng will be intensified this year. if the
advance signs are any token of what
is to come. AT least $4,000 more men
than are in sight now Will he needed,
and desperate measures Will be adopted
to draft men into the service behind
the self binders.
State Free Employment Agent Ge-
row holds that number of railroads
are largely to blame for the shortage
of harvest hands. He says the rail-
complete their own work and for this
reason have refused to grant the l cent
a mile passenger rate that usually is
made for the harvest hands. They fear,
it is said, that the call from the
wheat fields. with the attractive wages,
viii draw away their laborers, who get
only $l.25 for working OH the tracks.
The Rock Island and Union Pacific
have given the harvester's rate but
the other lines are obdura.te.
Auto and Chicken thinner.
All sorts of inducements are held OF
TO laborers to go to the wheat fields
Along the Santa Re road today farmers
drove into town in surveys and car
riages and picked up the struggling la
borers who alighted. AT Halstead one
farmer made a deal with five men who
left the train and conveyed them to
his home, five miles distant In big
automobile. His promise of fine
fried chicken Sunday dinner was an
additional incentive.
Competition for labor IL stronger
this year than ever before. There
seem to be no idle men anywhere. APP
peals have been addressed to the en-
ployment agencies to Chicago, ST.
Louis, and other large industrial CEN
tiers. The answer has come back In
almost every instance that it is i'm
possible to fill the orders. Factories
are running at full capacity all over
the country Building operations are
going on OH a scale exceeding anything
of the kind in past years. These ac-
tivities, in addition to the many public
improvements that are in progress.
have absorbed the bulk Of the labor
of the country, skilled and unskiled.
Railroads Absorb Army.
One of the heaviest drafts for men
comes from the railroads in the south
west In that region extensive road
building is being carried ON, and with
all the efforts at colonization not
enough men have been obtained to
make the progress desired by the rail-
road managers. To supply the detic-
iency for the railroads alone an effort
is being made TO divert the tide of
immigration from New York to the
gulf ports, Several weeks ago it was
announced that $4,000 more men could
be used in the southwest. Every de-
mand from that source increases the
anxiety and woes of the western wheat
producer

Packers Need Hogs.

Chicago, June 1S.-Packers want
hogs II you doubt it, watch them
scramble after the daily supply.
They have had their big run and it
did not break the market. Last week
has furnished a test, and the test has
demonstrated that bear talk emanat-
ing from Packlngton is not always re-
liable.
Hogs are selling high not because
they are scarce. The country is mar
keting a normal crop. Consumption,
however. has caught up with produce
ton and it is a free for-all trade in
which competition is keen.
Hogs are going to be worth the
money right along. and even half-dol-
lar corn ought to be no incentive to
cash in stuff that is not ready.

She Preferred to Walk OFF Alive.
INeM York Tribune. /

People fought shy of TIE anaesthetic
when it was first discovered, and some
of them may have had the feeling of
a stout negro woman who appeared in
a dental room with the bullying jaw
and woebegone look with which every
dentist must be familiar. knowing
that the process of extracting the
troublesome tooth would be a painful.
one the dentist suggested to his pa
tient that she take gas, to which she
said with decision:
No, sab; no sab; yo' don't git dis
chile to tex none OBJ yo ole gas en-
walk out OBJ dis chair dalid when her

Another New Seasons Top Made for

Chicago, June 1S.--Cattle-H Heavy
receipts resulted in lower prices. Early
declines of 100I15 were made. and con-
ditions were such that everything
pointed to still more marked de-
cline before the close The quality of
offerings was not very good.
There are fair prospects for next
weeks trade If the run is held to mod
crate proportions. such as noted this
week. 1t is apparent. however, that
the general demand is not sufficient to
care for the big supplies. and traders
are hoping for an opening run next
week of less than $4,000, altho estl-
mates on the probable supply ranged
up TO $1,000.
Hogs.
The market opened with show of
strength due to active speculative buy
ing, but the firmness did not hold until
the finish Part of the advance was
lost under the bearishness of the reg
ulars. and market ruled merely strong
after the packers came into the trade.
Sheep.
Trade continued to boom and prices
again showed up another notch. A new
seasons top for lambs was made when
a big string of Illinois fed westerns
went over the scale at $40
