BIG SIXTH BEGINS BIG DRIVE
This Congressional District definitely gets into the game
to do its part in winning the
FOR MORE sILos AND CATTLE

The Sixth Congressional district
is now prepared to begin doing its
''bit'' to insure victory in the war.
With twenty-one of the twenty-five
counties of the district backing the
movement a permanent organization
was effected here yesterday to carry
on a vigorous campaign to make the
'Big Sixth" a real force in the strug-
gle. Thirteen county chairmen or
men from their committees were pres
ent in person and eight other chair
men backed the movement by wire
or letter.
In order to carry the campaign to
the people that the situation is ser
ious and to cause people to realize
the significance of the crisis, a
central bureau was established with
headquarters at Hays to be the infor-
nation center of the Sixth District
council of defense and a clearing
house between all the county chair
men. This bureau will set to work
at once.
The meeting ascertained that every
county in the section did not need any
financial aid whatever and had with
in its borders enough to seed the
crops for next year. This was con-
trary to the reports that first went out
about this part of Kansas.
The men present all spoke of the
fact that this crisis was the biggest
opportunity that had ever come to
the Sixth District to wage an effective

campaign to increase the number of
siIos and cattle. The farmers were
urged to raise silage crops this year
to sell TO the man who has cattle.
G. A. P. Falconer of Atwood,
struck the keynote of the meeting
when he said, "It may be more cour-
ageous to fight in the trenches, but
it's just as important to follow the
furrow and serve IN the kitchen"
Everyone at the meeting made from
one to six speeches. Enthusiasm as
to what this section of Kansas will
do was everywhere in evidence. 9th
er meetings of the council will be held
soon. President W. A. Lewis was
elected chairman. and F. A. Kiene
of the government service was made
secretary.
