1t is the purpose of the Grit-Advo.
cate at all times to interest the various
communities of the county in the vir,
tues of unity in all matters of pub.
lie welfare, in which a mutual bene.
fit will be derived While this en-.
deavor may not be appreciated to any
startling extent, the sentiment must
be admitted to be good logic and wor.
thy of emulation.
1t is one thing certain that no rea
good can come for Sedgwick county
as whole from jealous rivalry or
the part of any town or section as
against another town, however for
tunately situated it may be as to geo.
graphical location and natural ad.
vantages. 1t is true that all centrai
points have their advantages in one
form or other, an dthe accumulation
of these desirable features tend te
make for substantial whole as it re-
lates to the county or community in
terest
Sedgwick county can we'll and truth
fully boast of being most fertile sec
tion-and so can the territory adjac-
ent. We should consider ourselves
as one BIG" community, and work CO.
operatively. Nobody every lost any

A gunny sack containing five sticks
of dynamite found lying close to the
North Sterling reservoir has created
considerable alarm.
A boy living near the reservoir made
the discovery. He did not know what
the substance was and when he took
it to his father, the latter quickly got
in communication with the authorities
here. An investigation was started
Immediately.
1t is the belief of some that the
dynamite might have been some that
had been left there by the workmen
recently engaged on the repair work
at the dam. Art King, engineer for
the North Sterling, accompanied the
sheriff to make an investigation

The only difference between rut

Are you in rut t? Is it going to be-
come your grave?
Have you made up your mind that
the trick methods of the Mail Order
houses are going to secure and hold
your trade, when your good Judge
ment tells you that patronizing Home
Industry is by far the best policy !
II SO you are in a rut-a deep rut-
and it will prove to be very short one
for you are either contributing to
the mail order mans success or to
the success of Julesburg and commun-
ity, by what you are doing or failing
to do.
The practice of patronizing the
mail order concerns is one of the
greatest extravagances we know of,
in more ways than one. By doing so

you are helping to retard the progress
of this community in which you should
be interested. As citizen of thii
community, you most certainly have
q duty to perform in the matter of be.
ing loyal to all Home" enterprises
When you send your dollars to "far.
away" concern for goods that can be
obtained right here at home, it means
an expenditure of money which the
community will receive no benefit
from whatsoever. Isn't that extrava-
CANT!
This community is progressing and
is going to progress. You can do
your share towards its progress by be.
ing loyal at all times to the Home
enterprises. Let's give the mail-order
shark the cold shoulder, and use our
best influences and individual efforts
towards building up our community,
whereby a mutual benefit is to be
gained.

School both days.
The Senior Domestic Science girls
are still cooking breakfast dishes.
They will complete this part of the
course in three weeks at the end of
which time a breakfast will be ser

Mrs. Babcock talked to the assem-

made us feel that after all the subject
"War" is not so undressing.

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES

To attempt to tell most any COM
.nunity who and what Ralph Parlette.
the well known lyceum lecturer and
editor of the Lyceum Magazine, is and
does, is superfluous task. For Ralph
Parlette has been telling the Lyceum
and Chautauqua universe those things
for seventeen years, and when Parlette
finished description there is nothing
to be added. Parlette's lectures are
all history or confessions, or both.
They are built out of everyday exper-
fences of boy who was all boy, and
a man who is all man. They ring
true. They're humorous for Parlett
can't help but be humorous, but the
never sting or burn the man or woman
who has lived rightly. The blister the
"Pie Faces" an "No Accounts" of the
community, however, and shake down
out OF their hiding places soon 'coons
of can't and hypocrisy. A Parlett:
lecture is philosophical bomb loaded
with good humor. When it goes of
in community every live citizen OF
the community knows something has
exploded. They laugh, but they re.
member more than they think, and
often repent.
Because of other programs conflict
ing with the Literary program on
Thursday evening, the Literary pro-
gram will be postponed until Thursday
of next week. Please keep in mind
this date for the High School needs the
cooperation of all the town people.

HOW MUCH HAY IN THE STACK

This is the time of the year whea
the old perennial question breaks ost
from all quarters of the compass and
to keep up with the push we are going
to tell the story all over again. The
rules vary according to the length Of
time the hay has been stacked. the
kind and quality of the hay. and also
according to the character of the stack.
With alfalfa hay which has been stack
ed for thirty days it is usual to COM
pute and S-foot cube, or 512 cubic feet
as q ton. When the hay has been
stacked five or six months 7h-foot
cube. or 422 cubic feet is usually cal
culated for ton.
In old, fully settled stacks it is U.s.
ual to allow 7-foot cube, 343 cubic
feet for ton; or sometimes in very
large stacks or mows only ZIG cubic
feet, a 6-foot cube, are allowed for
each ton in weight. This last comp
utation applies more particularly to
the finest kind of hay such as our
Colorado bluestem. There are diff
erent methods for measuring hay in
the stack, depending upon the shape
and also the size of the stack. With
long stack or rick the usual method
is to throw line over the stack. mea
surfing the distance in feet from the
bottom on one side to the base of the
other, add the average width of the
stack in feet, divide by which gives
one side of the square, multiply the
quotient by itself and this product by
the length of the stack in feet.
This will give the number of cubic
feet in the stack, which may be divided
by 512, 422, or 343 in order to find the
number of tons. For small, low
ricks the rule is to subtract the width
from the over, divide by 2, multiply
by the width, and multiply the pro-
duct by the length, dividing the re-
snlt by the number of cubic feet in
ton. There is no established rule for
measuring round stacks, but this one
will approximate the contents of
stack of ordinary conical form: Find
the circumference at or above the base
or bulge at height that will average
the base from there to the ground,
find the vertical height Of the measur-
cd circumference from the ground and
the slant height from the measured
circumference to the apex of the stack,
taking all measurements in feet.
Multiply the circumference by it
self, divide by 100 and then multiply
by 8, then multiply the result by the
height of the base, plus one-third of
the slant height of top. The hay in
a round stack is usually less compact
than in rectangular stack, hence
greater number of feet should be al
lowed for ton with well-settled hay.
probably 512 cubic feet. The rules
may also be used in measuring any
kind of hay, or cane or kafir fodder,
but with cane or kafir only approx
innate results may be obtained by
stack measurements, because the fod-
der is apt to vary greatly in weight
according to the moisture it contains.

SOLDIER BOYS ALWAYS
WANT HOME PAPERS

Lord Northcliffe shows that ne not
only understands what it is that makes
the attraction of home newspapers, es-
pecially the small papers of little conf
munities, but that he understands the
psychology of army life and why the
soldier is homesick. ~
"When you write letters to the man
at the 'front.'" he says, always put IN
a home newspaper. mean local
| newspaper that gives intimate details
for which the boys at the front long so
pathetically when they are far away
from home. They like 20 see what
their friends are doing. They like to
read about church socials. They like
to know that Miss Smith poured tea
for Mrs. Brown. The troops at the
front always have plenty of the
worlds great newspaper to tell them
what is going on, but the local home
journal is gift for which they are
always grateful"
Every man who has lived in little
town in his youth understands this.
For years after he has left the place,
and even to middle age, he subscribed
for the little old newspaper that gives
much Of it's space for local happenings.
He learns from its columns that Millie
Jones, his first sweetheart, has mar
ried Tom Allen. He is happily mar
ried himself, but he wonders about
Millie and doubts if she has made q
right choice, Tom Allen being a queer
stick. He is glad to learn that the
West boys are making good in thei1
new store, that the Chambers have
built new barn and the Snyders' .
new barn. AS time goes on barns ge
out of fashion and he smiles to reat
that old Doc johnson has finally grow
tired of his "one-hoss shay" an.
bought an automobile and turned hi
stable into garage.
The native of the old town, wheth
er he leaves it to spend his years else
where or to fight his countrys battles
always feel thrill at his heart whe'
he sees a paper bearing the familia
name When he reads it he is in touc
with his old friends; he knows wha
they are doing and something of thei
joys and sorrows. The paper is BON
between the old life and the new. H
does not get all the personal ipforma
tion in letters. If he has any CORE
spondents there they forget to te
him of happenings such as he cares fo
and the paper is his chief reliance.
If this interest in the old home tow
is so keen in case of busy men of al
fairs, It is indefinitely more so wit
the soldiers so far away from tn
familiar scenes, so far off from tn
life they have known. This fat
should not be forgotten by the friend
Of the boys in khaki.

Bob Speer, mayor of Denver, has
swiped the thunder of the. Colorado
Metal Mining Association bodily and
will have an ordinace passed which
will put the wildcat promoters, now
overrunning Denver out of business.
Bob doesn't seem to have the support
of the Denver papers in this which
leads us to infer the papers have been
in on the graft somewhere along the
line.

"But the real missionary work Is GO

Americans and Canadians are playing
baseball for the ediiication and delight
of the Tommies and poilus rs well as
for their own pleasure"
Callahan has struck popular note.
Why not international baseball after
the war?
Baseball has been one of the great
melting pots Of America. Practically
every nationality has contributed big
stars. This rcfutcs any idea that base
ball has been corncrcd by America ana
cannot he developed anywhere else.
Looking over the records of the last
few years we find that France Is rep
