FARMERS URGED TO SEND
NUMBER OF HELP NEEDED

Every farmer is urged to telephone
or write to DR.. H. X. Porter, local
representative of the war council, and
give him the minimum of female help
needed in his orchards or fields. as the
case may be. Ask for less than you
really think you will need.
If all farmers will do this, the local
board will be able to cooperate with
the Denver council. 1t is certain that
there will not be enough help in the
county to handle the crops, and while
it is declared that just as little be i'm
ported as will be needed, some will
surely have to come. If the local COM
mittee has the number each man will
need, in time. the situation will be
handled nicely. The farmers should
make it their business to attend to
this.
Half fares have already been OBJ
tanned for all Western Slope points
and it is understood that the same
will be effective from eastern slope
points soon.
The council has withdrawn from the
idea Of sending over an army of
women. A committee of three ladies',
however, spent Saturday, Sunday and
Monday here looking into the situation
and conditions here. The members of
this committee were Miss Anna Evans,
Mrs. Tibbins. and Mrs. Kendrick, all
Of Denver.
The time of harvesting is rapidly
drawing near. Getting help and car
ing for 1t is a serious problem this
year and no time should be lost max
ing preparations.

scooPEo?

Someone told us that we were scoop
ed last week in the matter of the grand
Jury report. We wish to correct this
statement.
This office was in possession OF the
grand jury report over week before
il was published, and 4 member
of this office force was the official
stenographer and wrote out the re
port, carefully concealing it from
curious eyes, and so We were in a po-
sition to know all about it.
Independent had a splendid reason
for not publishing the findings of the
grand jury before this time. We were
requested by the county officers not
to do so, who advised us that num-
ber of the indicted men were still at
large and that it would be detrimental
to have the report made public before
they were apprehended. We, there
fore refrained because we believed
it was the right thing to do. We be-
lieve that the party who gave out the
information to the paper in Cedaredge,
acted unwisely and we further believe
that the article would not have ap-
peared in the other local paper. had
it's editor not been away from home.
The report appears elsewhere in
this issue. 1t can do no harm now.
