OF all the agricultural labor prob
lens confronting the farmers of the
country at this time, probably the most
serious is that of getting enough help
to harvest the wheat crop. In normal
times there was a shifting population
of from 10000 to $4,000 men who fol-
lowed the harvest season from the
South to the North of the wheat belt.
Floating labor Is no longer available
to any such great extent, and the mat
ter Of harvest labor, always problem,
Is now more serious one. Mr.. II. IL.
Frizell, the department of agriculture's
farm help specialist for Kansas, re-
Gently wrote: "After full and com
plete Investigation, ! am free to say
that the farmers of Kansas will not
be able to save the wheat crop unless
they cal. get help from some of the
surrounG!rg States" What Is true OF
Kansas is probably true of most of the
other wheat states. The department of
agriculture and the department of la
Dor, with fairly adequate funds avail
able, are using their best eS3lis 70
solve the problem, which they undoubt-
eddy will do. But the city people OF
the states involved, by proper organ
ization and cooperation can help q
great deal. If they care at all for
more wheat bread and less war bread

Your County AGENT.

Do not forget that there is sort
of deputy secretary of agriculture who
is always ready TO help you with your
poultry problems. He is the farm
demonstration for the United States
department of agriculture. He is COM
monty known as "the county agent"
If there are young people in your
household he would no doubt like to
enroll them in the clubs for poultry
raising which are carried on II most
OF the states. He is good man to
get In touch with--and to keep In
touch with.

during the next u months, they win
help great deal. Ii their patriotism
is at all manifest, not to say militant,
they will help great deal. For the
nation to mature a wheat crop and
then fail to harvest 1t would be exactly
as bad policy as for the government
to mobilize and train an army and
then poison 1t.

Get a kodak and a roll of films at Harvill's Drug Store and make some pictures of the old home to send to your boy in camp: there is not anything that he will appreciate more.
 Many farmers are threshing wheat and oats thls week and we understand the yields are about as good as were expected. There was a large acreage of wheat, taking into consideration the fact that it has not been the GUS tom to raise wheat to any great extent in this section of the country. The oats crop is much better than expected and will greatly relieve the feed situation from a monetary standpoint.

turing the first two and half years the loyal 3000000 children to the state said the Who is to blame for this dread war? The German wife, the German maid Who with servility obeyed That word of out-lawed purity
 And humbly lent Themselves to "conscript motherhood
 To please autocratic lord Those coward women who forgot In bestial license Gods decree For marriage VOWS and chastity, The finer cleaner things of life And by their acts Were concubines to stranger men
 And lost the whiteness of their souls These bear the burden of the blame And on their shameless head is heaped The worlds contempt they Jrebly reaped In scorn of worldwide womanhood
 What they had sown; For through the ages 1t will stand
 A nations scarlet harlotry. And men who knew their women went Down to such depths of infamy Nor struck blow for sanctity, Nor spoke word for clean uplift
 Of wife and home? What kind of men they? The jungle beasts Have higher instincts, since they fight To hold their mates against the world.

LIVELY SCRAP BETWEEN
 STEAMSHIP CAPTAINS

When the Evans attempted to land at the dock at Latouche, the captain of the Northwestern, which was al ready tied up there, refused to allow the Admiral line vessel to dock along side her, and held her out in the stream until she was ready to depart. The Admiral beat the Northwestern into Valdez, and when she attempted to tie alongside threw her lines off, and for a time an acrimonious dis cussion ensued The Northwestern was finally compelled to tie up at the city dock, and threatened to stay there and keep the Evans from landing alongside with machinery The af- fair, which was settled without blood shed, afforded much amusement for the spectators on shore

Call for Conference
I ermed Subterfuge

Robert Maisel, director of the Amer
lean Alliance Tor Labor and Democ-
racy, of which Samuel Gompers is
president, yesterday denounced the
declaration of the Amalgamated Cloth
ing Workers. Union as camoui1age to
conceal pro- German sympathies
"This declaration" said he. refer
ring to the proclamation made public
yesterday morning in favor of an inter
belligerent labor conference, as the
same old pro-Gcrman idea. Before
the United States entered the war
these people were pro- German. When
We entered the VIZ they became paci
fists. When the American Alliance for
Labor and Democracy lifted the paci
fist mask Of the so-called Peoples
Council tho proGermans did not cease
their activities.
"Since the invasion of defenceless
Russia by Germany they have been

some with the cry Don't permit Japan
to invade Russia others with approval

movement in calling an inter-baliger-

In the same article. however, the
"Handelsblad" admits that it is un-
fortunately true that Holland is the
only northern neutral which has done
nothing to combat German subma rine
methods. 1t attributes the countrys
present position to the spirit which has
dictated such an attitude.
The "Tc!egraf." which is pro-Ally, ad-
vocates the acceptance of the offer of
the Entente governments, adding:
Hollands existence as a free and
independent nation and the possession
Of its colonies are at stake. BY choos-
ing the right path the government has
1T in Its power to maintain the liberty
Of the nation Or irrevocably deliver it
to the mercy of Germany, which in its
bid for world domination has long had
envious eyes on Holland. The Dutch
nation will not permit itself to be de-
livered over to the German junkcrs."

tive answer to the Ententes proposals

which we are subjected by the rulers
of the ocean, and nothing makes US so
bitter as the attempt being made to
base it on the so-caled rule Of inter

here"
