L. S. WANTS BOYS
TO HARVEST CROPS
Urges Registration; Lynden High
School students Will Hear Plan
Tomorrow

Uncle Sam today called upon the
high school students of Washington
to help harvest the states war crop
this summer and thus prevent the
threatened shortage of labor in the
farming districts.
The call by which the students will
be enabled to help their country in
much needed and practical way and
at the same time obtain employment
at prevailing wages, today was issued
by Henry M. White, United States
Commissioner of immigration and
Employment. with headquarters at
Seattle.
The plan of placing the states
high school students on the farm is
indorsed by the United States De-
partment of Labor, the United States
Department of Agriculture. the State
Department of Agriculture. Mrs. JOS
ephine Preston, and school officials
in various parts of the state.
Friday. May Is, has been desig-
mated as enrolment day in the five
hundred high schools of the State.
At the Lynden High School, Super
intendent p A Wright will explain
the plan to the students at a general
assembly Friday, and the local boys
will be given an opportunity TO en-
roll for service in the harvest fields.
An effort Will be made to locate
the students as near their homes as
possible so that the expense of tray-
cling will be held down to a mini
mum. The wages they will receive
for this work and living conditions
surrounding their employment will be
determined at the time work is given.
An exhaustive investigation of lab
or conditions in the farming dist
ricts. especially that section east OF
the Cascades. by the United States
Employment Service and other ag-
encies has disclosed the fact that un-
less help volunteers to go into the
harvest fields this summer, situat-
ion which will seriously eurtail crops
will result.
This condition. unless remedied,
will cause a still further rise in the
high cost of living, because OF the
shortage of food supplies and VIII
work a distinct hardship on the lab
oring classes. On the other hand,
if the labor problem is solved, there
will be a bumper crop and the cost OF
living reduced.

WANTS FARMERS TO
RAISE MORE HOGS
State Urges Ranchers of District To
Help Solve Meat Shortage BY
Keeping Swine

Farmers of the Lynden district
were urged today in a message sent
out by E. F. Benson, state commits
sioner of agriculture, to raise hogs,
and lots of them, as a war measure
The following is Mr.. Benson's mes
sage to the farmers:
THE countries of Europe are in
need of more pork and lard Many
communities and individuals are ask
ing In what way can We contribute
further to the relief of the world food
shortage?' Many others assume that
when all their land is planted they
have done all that could be done so
far as they are concerned. To every
farmer of the state the hog industry
presents an opportunity at this time
ANY community can increase greatly
its production of pork products.
Raising hogs today is interesting
for two reasons; first, ii is an intense
ly profitable job; providing the grow
er does not over reach and try to
carry to many. Second, it is patrio
tic duty. The high price of grain has
not made hog raising unprofitabl
1t is more profitable business now
than it has been for many years past,
where pasture and farm waste can
be used to any considerable extent
Under these circumstances, with the
present prices of feed and present
prices for pork, ii pays to raise hogs.
Today the price of pork is more than
twice as high as eighteen months ago,
but the price of hog pasture, such as
rape. alfalfa, or clover. is very little
higher than before the war began.
Finishing rations composed of
such feeds as shorts, dried beet pulp,
and blood meal that are comparativly
reasonable in price can be purchased
by those in districts where corn grow
ing is Improbable. Ii corn can be
produced this can be used in combin-
alton with blood meal. tankage, or
skim milk and provides a first-elass
finishing ration at moderate cost. In
those areas of the state where peas
are grown, a limited number of hogs
could be finished upon the peas shat

vesting.
Few farms are managed to carry
full stock capacity. 1t would be
difficult to increase rapidly the num-
ber of beef cattle or sheep. or to en-
large the dairy herd within six
months or a year, but the herd of
hogs can be increased eight fold in
a few months.
Good brood sows are being sent
every day to the stock yards. At the
present rate of slaughter, there will
be such a shortage of breeding stock
that those who have feed and wish
to keep up a normal balance of stock
along with general crop farming will
find it exceedingly difficult to pur-
chase desirable brood sows at the
end of the season.
1T is highly advisable to look a
head and prepare to keep up the
supply of pork. Few farm animals
convert feed into meat more econ
omically than hogs are capable of do
ing. There is wastage about nearly
every farm that could be made to
support an extra brood SOW"

DRUGGISTS WILL FIGHT.


The drug stores of the state hav-
ing liquor permits intend to make 4
fight against having to give up their
right TO sell liquor. The druggists
have asked the senate committee on
suppression of intemperance to
grant hearing before taking any
action on twin bills which provide
for cancellation of all drug store per-
mits.
Druggists call attention to the fact
that less than 10 per cent of the
drug stores of Iowa now have liquor
permits. There are many counties
which do not have any stores with
such permits. The most of the
druggists voluntarily ceased selling
liquor, it is claimed.
However, the move to cancel the
permits is so revolutionary, that a
fight is expected TO be made against
the measure. The passage of the
act would carry with it, an express
sion of the legislature that the use
of whiskey and intoxicating liquors in
compromising medicine is not nee
essity, it is said.

NEW sWINDLING GAME.
Waterloo Man Bought Fish Which
Never Arrived.

Waterloo, Ia. Feb. ga novel
way to transfer end deliver live fish
was disclosed through a complaint
here yesterday by a Waterloo resi-
dent who feels he has been made the
victim of smooth ruse to induce
him to part with hard-earned dol
lars.
Some time ago a concern in the
north advertised live fish for sale
in quantities at a low price. The bait
was so .alluring that he ordered $50
worth.
Days passed and the fish did not
come.
Finally, few days ago the buy
er thoroughly exasperated, penned
another letter in which he threat
ened to report to the postal author
tiles if the fish were not delivered
forthwith.
Yesterday he received reply as
follows
The fish in question were set
free in the headwaters of the Cedar
river and started in the direction of
Waterloo. They should have been
there before this, and if you were
not on hand to stop them, it was not
our fault"
