BOAT MOVEMENTS ARE
 FOLLOWED MINUTELY

At present the movements of more than 1000 boats are being followed by the shipping branch of the British ministry of food. The ship intelli- gence section of the branch must con- stantly keep the changing positions of these vessels before the various pur- chasing committees. What this means may be realized when it is remem- bered that boat coming from North America with a dozen different ar ticles of food on board may interest a dozen different branches of the food ministry. The necessary information was afforded them by this branch The constant use of telephone and telewriter enables the branch to keep in touch with all these buying branches and conditions, and instead of hundred calls from these branch es the shipping branch of the food ministry can settle the business in one call. This simplifes the work of the ministry of shipping in remark able manner. The fact that the ship ping branch is made up of business men drawn from the shipping world insures the efficient conduct of the work.

Major General Beaumont q. Buck,

: "The big thing in this war was the
arrival of the Americans in force in
France There were big things be-
fore it, but that accomplishment was

The Germans were not alone in their
doubt of the possibility OF getting ten
thousand men a day into France for
four long months. That's what was
done, however, and the men in that
vast contingent developed and main
tanned morale second to no fighting
man on earth. They were brought
there through the fine work of the
British, American and other allied
ships; they were kept in fine spirits
by the splendid work of the folks at
home, and they proved, as fast as
opportunity was offered them that
they were there for no other purpose
than to advance steadily and win.

On October IA telegram was re-

for the Soil Products exposition.
and sent by express. Edward D. Foster
of the State Board of immigration was
In charge Of the exhibit. Extracts
from his letter are as follows:
1.-THE wheat reached me at Kansas
City after I had held the judges off
half day in an effort to have our
entry on the table. When the judging
started Mr.. John Howell of Montrose
and 1 examined it carefully and found
it to be splendid sample of wheat
but contained so much yellow berry
that hand-picking would be essential
tefore it could be classed with the
winners AS we had only twenty min
utes in which to prepare it, you can
readily understand that were unable
to clean it sufficiently. However, we
entered it and it was almost a pound
heavier than any other wheat shown
there. The judges rejected it because
Of the yellow berry. but if we had
uk1u LlUlc " uhuu-PlCh IL L du odtAoAAO0
It would have won the first place.
The best grain we received, both
at Kansas City and at Wichita, came
from Delta and Montrose counties,
but shipping difficulties in every
case prevented us from having time
to hand-pick it as we should have
done. SO we were at a considerable
disadvantage"
Why raise SO much poor wheat
standard. The good wheat yields
more and brings better prices with
considerably greater returns per acre.
