The Real Opportunity

A successful farmer once said
that he made the most money in
years when conditions were un-
favorable for crops. "For," he
said, "any man can grow a good
crop during a favo4 able year, and
the price is always low. On the
other hand it takes careful fertil-
izing, cultivating, and harvesting
to make a good crop in a poor year.
But for that very reason, because
supply is low, any farmer who can
make a good crop in a poor year is
assured of good profits
This truism will be borne out
next year as never before. Fertil-
izers, machinery, seeds, and labor
will be harder to get next year
than ever before. Even if the sea-
son is good there will be small
chance for ordinary methods to
bring through a fair crop. To be-
gin with, ordinary crop growing
methods presuppose a plentiful
supply of cheap labor.
Of one thing we may be sure.
Labor will not be plentiful in 1918.
Nor will it be cheap. On the other

hand crop prices are bound to be
nigh next year because there will
be an active demand for every
thlng we can possibly produce.
There is a real opportunity next
year for the forehanded man; the
man who gets in the game early,
the man who gets his supplies of
fertilizers and seeds while the get
ting is good, the man who is pre-

Interesting Chapel Talks
At Women's College

On Monday Professor Saleski of
Delaware College, gave "a scholar
ly talk on "Words." He contrast
ed the pecularities of one language
with the German and French, ana
in closing made an appeal to the
students to read and study the
poetry for the inspiration to be
gained.
On Tuesday Mrs. Henry b.
Thompson talked to the girls about
the Women's Land Army. She ex-
planned how in England women
have taken mems places IN the
fields and have harvested the
crops. Last year the plan was
tried in America. Units OF work
ing women or college girls were
sent out to live in groups under
