tricl5Ie Senator Bristow seems to
have the only politics--only audienc-
es and those who profess to know say
it is because the hearers expect
something sensational to happen.
The State Council of Defense has
taken up the matter of closing the
garages and filling stations according
to the request of the national war
board on Sunday, holidays and from
o. m. to z a. m. In a majority of
instances the purveyors of gasoline
have complied willingly with the or
der. The defense council will take
UP the slackers with moral suasion
first and then apply force if the cas-
der way is not found effective. It is
necessary to release forty thousand
automobile mechanics for the nations
war necessities and the war board be-
lieves compliance with the order will
accomplish the result so that draft
will not have to be resOrted to.
An effort will be made to inaugur-
ate a general movement to junk all
the old gold and silver jewelry as
well as every other meatl in order
that it may go into channels that will
help win the war Printers are urged
to scrap all the old type metal, wom-

Mr.. W. A. Boys has resigned his
position at the Fort Hays Expert
ment Station to accept a position that
pays him 2,400, automobile and up
keep, office and travelling expenses.
The position also offers Mr.. Boys
great opportunities for advancement.
Instead of supervising an extensive
territory which keeps him away from
home he will be able to spend most
Of his evenings with his family.
Mr.. Boys will make his home in
Wellington and conduct farm demon
stration work in that section. Mr..
Boys closes five years of efficient work
as Demonstration Agent representing
the Extension Department of the
Kansas State Agricultural College
and the Fort Hays Experiment Sta
ton. Mr.. Boys has his work so well
organized that the man who takes his
place can easily take up the work
where Mr.. Boys leaves off.
At the same time Mr.. Boys was Of
fered the position of Director and Ad-
visor of all the Farm Demonstration
work in Western Kansas with his of
fee at the Fort Hays Experiment Sta
ton, with the salary. he gets in his
new position but this position would
have kept him away from his family
most of the time.
The College and the Station viii
place man in his place just as soon
as one big enuogh to handle it can be
found. There are many farmers all
over Western Kansas that will regret
very much Mr.. Boys decision to leave
the field. The many County Demon
stration Agents located in Western
Kansas, are in the main, due to the
pioneer work done by Mr.. Boys dur
ing the last five years IN his quiet
and efficient way
