TO GET FARM HELP.

The State Marketing Bureau is in receipt of a
, letter from j. o. TRAILER, of Gainesville, Farm
Help Specialist of the Cooperative Extension
work in Florida, in reply to calling his atten-
ton to the fact that men were being discharged
from the camp and shipyards, and some of them
might be secured for the farms in the state
where help has been scarce. Mr.. Traxler en-
closed an appeal he had made to county agents,
which should have wide publicity:
1.-THE plan of the War Department in demobo-
lizing the troops will be important to you and to
vlo are in need of farm help. A plan has been
arranged so that this help can be secured quick
ly, and where most needed. in other words, it
will help the soldiers to secure positions before
being discharged and will enable those who need
the services of their former employees or any,
one else whom they may desire, to make requisi-
lion for such services The plan adopted re-
CURED a letter from the employer, asking the re-
lease of the soldier; or, in the soldier has
farm of his own or is needed on his fathers
farm, letter from relative or friend asking
for his release making statement as to the
needs of his services and his ability to perform
them.
CAS- illustration: A farmer knows of one
or more farm helpers in military service He
usually has the address indicating in what camp
they are located, or he can secure same With
this information he simply writes lettef stat
ing his desire to have the services of the soldier
giving reasons, addresses the letter to the Camp
Commandant, and the release is secured, pro-
vided the soldier cares to accept the employment
offered.
In case the address of a soldier is not known,
letter addressed to the Adjutant General. War
Department, Washington, D. c., enclosing the
letter OF request, will be forwarded to the Camp
commandment in which the soldier is located.
In order that the agricultural interests may
secure the most desirable men for the farm. it
is is imperative that those engaged in agricul-
ture make requisition to the War Department at
once.
You should get this information to your
farmers at the earliest possible moment Your
local papers would be glad to cooperate by pub
fishing this information, and thus help in get-I
ting the necessary help into your county imme-
dately."

M hDOO AND WILSON
DISAeREE OVER
RAILROAD PROBLEM

Washington, Dec. f..-Buying Of
public utilities by governments has
become old-fashioned. they say.
The twentieth century way and the
way most talked of in Washington
these days is brand new but SIM
pie one. President Wilson is famii-
lar with it, and his best friends be-
lieve he had it in mind, when in his
speech to congress Dec. 2, he said:
be disservice alike to
The country and the owner OF rail-
roads to return to the old conditions
unmodified.'
The new idea is this:
70 license corporations who operate
railroads.
The idea is preading like wildfire in
Washington.
1t is intended to operate like this:
a man or any set of men who own
to appeai TO tie government for gov
ernment Incense to operate their prop
erty.
Certain fixed re eutations will be
made for railroad operation. These
will involve earrings. rates and all the
details OF railroad (ptration.
So lcng as Operators provide by the
license operations they will be per-
mittcd to conduct their business
Whenever they break regulations tf1ey
will be summoned before the license
board
If the license is taken away from
them. they must step out and permit
the government to conduct the rail-
way until other licensees appear. To
lose the license does net mean TO lose
the property. Tn fact, under the plan.
company that loses license TO op
crate I'll: lie utility may retain It's
ownership IN the property indefinitely.
The property is not licensed in an,
respect. The license is only the
right to operate the property for pub
lie Use.
President Wilson's suggestion that
private ownership uncontrolled yill
be uncomfortable, is believed to point
toward relief in the licensing system.
w. G. McAdoo turned in his resig-
nation as secretary of the treasury
and director general Of the railroad
because he and his IA
ther-in- law, the president OF the Uni
ted States, didn't agree on what was
to he done with the railroads
McAdoe, it IS told me, was urgent
in his demands that the government |
retain tie roads until the last day OF
tile 81 months following the expiration !
Of the war. President Wilson wants |
to turn the roads back within the !
next few months. unless, as he said |!
in his speech before congress. some
definite action is taken by congress |
toward ownership OF the roads.
II is believed in official circles that T,
McAdcc wanted the president to take |
a stand for government ownership. |
and to obtain operation Of the roads /
until McACoc could demonstrate what |
ne could dc with them in peace time, |
aid thus produce a big argument for |
permanent retention.
McAdoo will be out January 1. 1t |
is then thought probable that he will /
launch a governmenet~ ownership Of |
railroads campaign, even after this |
president turns the roads back to |
private interests, and which, politici- |
ans insist, will play a large role in |
the next presidential campaign.
AStute political students believe that |
McAdoo is a good bet for the demo- (
cratic presidential nomination, If the |
railroad plank is in the platform. |

CROP OUTLOOK.

A warning note comes from the T. S. Depart
ment Of Agriculture to the effect that Southern
growers should consider the existence in the
Northern States of large surplus cabbage and
onion crops, says the State Marketing Bureau
The cabbage crop in nine Northern States in
which last summer cabbage is most extensively
grown is reported to be the largest since 1915.
In Nv York and Wisconsin, two States which
| store cabbage on large scale, the crop is esti-
mated to exceed that of 1917 by % per cent, an
estimated increase of approximately 10000 TONS
If the quantity of stored cabbage is in direct
proportion to the magnitude of the crop, the OBJ
servers say, it is likely to be more abundant dur
ing the spring of 1919, than it was during 1913
great deal of kraut has been made, but most
OF the cabbage has been carefully stored TO be
marketed in accordance with demands.
Prices for cabbage last week ranged from SIG
a ton in New York, $40 atom in Wisconsin, to
S28 in New Orleans.
Reports from fourteen states where onions are
extensively grown, show surplus of more than
million bushels or about 10 per cent more than
in the fall of 1917. This increase with the reg
ular carry over for market in the spring of 1919
may meet demands. Prices last week for onions
ranged from S130 per 100 pounds in New York
and Boston, with top prices in New Orleans at
So hundred.

Foe Retreat Becomes Rout.
London, Nov. Turkey is out OF
the war, and Germany's remaining
ally, Austria Hungary, badly defeated
on the field of battle, her battle line
rent in twain, and with chaos reign
ing inside her border, is pleading for
an armistice. Thus far her importuni
ties have received no better answer
than the redoublng of the efforts of
the allies to crush utterly her war
riors
The capitulation of Turkey is be-
lieved to have been an unconditional
one. The victories of the allied forces
over the Austro- -Hungarians threaten
to send what remains of the enemy
armies reeling back to their border
line shattered and completely van
quished.
More than $4,000 prisoners have
been taken by the Italian, British,
French, American and Czecho-Slovak
forces, and everywhere, from the

Violation of sugar regulations and
Justification of reports by a concern
which operates sixty retail stores in
Boston and vicinity has resulted in
contribution of $4,000 to the United
war work campaign. In addition to
the payment of this large sum each
of the company's stores will be re-
quired to display for 80 days a sign
declaring that 1t has violated the
United States food administration reg
ulations and pledging compliance with
its rulings in future.
None of the stores was closed be-
cause the food administration realized
that many people would be inconven-
fenced If they were even temporarily
put out of business. An investigation
by the food administration disclosed
that the company had been knowingly
obtaining sugar which 1t was not en-
titled to receive under the system of
allotment. Officials of the company,
1t was testified, had submitted erro-
neous reports to the food administra-
ton in its applications for excessive
amounts of sugar certificates. The
president of the company offered to
contribute $4,000 to the United States
war work campaign in lieu of further
action, and to show that the firm re-
gretted violations by subordinate Of
