OKLAHOMA CITY, Dec. 20.-So
urgent is the demand for men trained
in the technical and mechanical work
incident to the war that the most eX-
tensive program possible must be
carried out to give these men this
special training in the shortest pos
sible time Secretary s. Nj. Barrett,
of the state vocational board, re
turned from Washington today, where
he attended n meeting of the direc-
tors of vocational educational edu-
cation. 1t was pointed out in the
meeting that so important is this
branch of service that facilities for
training men offered by the schools
and universities would be greatly in
adequate and that machine shops,
railroad shops and facilities of all in
dustries that could be used at all
would have to be asked to help.
In this respect, Secretary Barrett
said today that some Of the rail-
roads of the state had already offered
the facilities in their shops for the
work. and In addition they had Of
fered to gve the training required. II
was explained to the national voca-
tional board how many men were re-
qured to man an airplant, how many
for another department OF the service.

that the arrangement previously
made to train these men in the work.

cover the situation.
Secretary Barrett will get in COM

where men can be trained in the

arrange for the proper teaching Of
the men. He regards the work of the
vocational boards as of the gravest

FARMERS INSTITUTE WORKS
FOR A COUNTY FARM AGENT

A meeting Of the county farmers
institute will be held at the court
house Tuesday afternoon at 1880 to
consider having a county farm agent
for this county. Many counties in
the state have county agents, APP
pointed by the State Agricultural
college, to look after farm conditions
in that county and introduce meth
DDS OF improvement in farm work.
It is the earnest desire of H. g..
Kyle. president of the Dickinson
county institute, and of other pro-
eressive farmers in the county. to
have an agent here and to that eff
feet he has secured Professor II.
Umberger of the State Agricultural
college to speak at the meeting to-
morrow Professor Umberger will
have some interesting things to say
about the county agent proposition
and it is expected that many farm
ers will attend from all parts of the
county.

YOU NEED A TONIC
Hoods SarsapariIIa, as a Spring
Medicine, is the Best.

Spring sickness comes in some
degree to every man, woman and
child in our climate. 1t is that run
down condition of the system that
results from impure, impoverished,
devitalized blood. 1t is marked by
loss of appetite and that tired feel
ing, aud in many cases by some
form of eruption.
The best way to treat spring sick
ness is to take Hood 5 Sarsaparilla.
Ask your druggist for this old reli-
able family medicine. 1t purifes,
enrichcs and reyitalizes the blood
1t is an all-the-year-round alter
alive and tonic, and is absolutely
the best Spring medicine.
Get your blood in good condition
at once-now. Delay may be dan
gerous. Be sure to get Hood S Sar-
saTarilla, nothing else can take its
place.

Ma DICKINSON WANTS M

IF Dickinson county wants part
in the federal road aid it Will have

miles Of hard surface road are be-

taken as soon as Governor Capper

lad not been in effect three days
until the road boosters in various
PARTS of the state began planning

which petitions are now being cir
culated:

Crawford county, II miles def

Shawnee county, miles two
separate roads to make good en-
trance into Topeka
South Dickinson, Y miles (Santa

Plans now are being made to
start the Topeka end of the Kansas
City-Topeka road. A preliminary
survey has been made from Topeka

the road to the east county line will
be constructed this summer, and II
Douglas county wakes up the road
to Lawrence may be built this year.
Kansas will not be able to get
any of the federal good roads mon
ey until it makes up a complete
program for road improvement that
will require at least five years to
complete.
When that is done then the high
way commission will determine what
projects are to be taken up this
year and the ones to be completed
next year and each year of the per-
iod.
The petitions now being circulat-
ed for road improvement may be a
part of the general program and the
projects to be completed this year

view should be made a regular thing
"Every two years would be about
the right time, in my opinion, but
that is detail, the main point being
that the entire strength of the guard
should be brought together at stated
periods. II would be great encouf,
