WHAT WOULD YOU DO
TO STOP SUCH THINGS

President Wilson, while reviewing
the Red Cross parade in New York,
was greeted by a Canadian soldier,
invaded home from the front, wh0s
had been taken into the Canadian
Army despite the fact that he
81 years old when the authorities
learned that his son was one of those
that German soldiers crucified on a.
barn door. What would you do to
stop such fiendish things? Do you
think it much of a sacrifice to pledge
yourself to save and to buy War Saw
ings Stamps?
Advertising! Bradstreet's state
ment that "a per cent OF all
are among non-advertisers is slgnln-
cant. Intelligent advertising has be-
come an essential in every modern M
-dustry. but what shall the advertiser
in the face of the war situation when
he finds it difficult to get goods to fitE
orders? First of all, it should be re-
membered that the foundation pUrN
pose of iudicious advertising is to
fix indelibly the trademark in ehe
public's mind. A let-up in that cam
paign must be fatal to any product
So, Ne find Mr.. George H. ChaE&
vice-president Of the American Roll
ing Mill Company, declaring the COM
pany's purpose to continue its ad-
vertisine, although for two and q aaH
wears it had been unable to supply
the demand for it's product. We
are building" said he, " a perns-
nent business edifice, and some day
we would have to spend millions ct
dollars buying back the business and
good will of our clients if they are
forsaken in this emergency" Unless
advertising is kept up without a break
the advertiser loses the results of the
initial effort. Here is a warning to-
the advertiser who neglects the dull
season in the summer. When adj
vertisements are fewest is the very
time when a message to the public
viii get the most attention. 1t is
good psychology" to push the adj
yertisement of a winter product IN
summer and a summer product IN
winter.-Leslie'S.

and more than 500 American troops
were enaged for one and one-half
hours on the border here late today
during a skirmish between American
troops and Mexicans. These facts
were officially announced here late to-
night after survey of the town and
camp had been made. While the cas-
ualties on the Mexican side of the bor-
der were not known tonight. it was
estimated that 100 had been killed by
fire from the American side while at
least twice this number, including
number of civilians, were wounded. 1t
was reported tonight that the mayor
of Nogales, Sonora, was killed but this
was not confirmed.

NEW PLAN TO HELP FARMERS
State Officials Work Out Scheme
to obtain Funds to Purchase
Seed Wheat.

Governor Capper, Walter Wilson,
state bank commissioner, and ]. Z.
Mohler, secretary of the State Board
of Agriculture, are working on new
plan to secure Immediate funds for the
Western Kansas farmers who need
seed wheat aid. The government has
allotted IL million dollars for wheat
seed aid in Kansas, but under the
law this money cannot be advanced
until the wheat is sown. The West
ern Kansas banks have gone the limit
on loans and cannot make additional
advances.
The plan worked out by the state Of
ficials follows that adopted in Okla
hcma. When a farmer has his appli-
cation for loan approved by the gov
ernment officials he will take the pa
pers to his bank and give his personal
note for the money with the papers as
security. The bank will make the loan
for sixty days and then discount the
note with the clearing houses at Wich-
ita, Topeka or Kansas City. The clear
ing houses then secure funds from the
federal reserve banks.
This plan will take care Of the farm
ers during the period when they are
sowing, but before the government
loan is available.

The Pawnee Valley, extending for
about twenty-five miles across Paw.
nee and Hodgeman counties, has been
picked for an extensive irrigation pro-
ject, the most extensive in its scope
in Kansas. ]. c. Mohler, secretary
of the state board of agriculture, at
the solicitation of business men Of
Larned and farmers in the proposed
irrigation district, recently paid visit
to the district and declares the possi'
bilities are extremely favorable and
he hopes to see the day when the
project will be given a thorough test
AS water at depth from fifteen to
forty feet under ground is abundant,
Mr.. Mohler says nature has solved the
problem most important in such an
undertaking.
According to what Mr.. Mohler
learned of the undertaking, the farm
ers are to own the stock in proportion
to the number of acres each may have
under irrigation. The plan, in brief, is
to sink wells and propel the pumps by
electricity. This would necessitie. the
extension of an electric line along the
valley. An engineer Nathan L. Jones,
has been in consultation with the
farmers backing the project and has
estimated that the electric line could
be built, well sunk and motor pump
installed at an expense of about $4,000
to each farmer.

Whatever has the life secret Of Burt
Murphy, recluse who lived in tent
along the Whitewater, near Towanda,
it remains a mystery, for it was buried
with him in the potter's field Of the
Eldorado cemetery. Murphys half de-
composed body was found by search
ing party a week after his disappear
ance had been observed, and the indi-
cations were that he was overcome by
the heat while picking wild grapes.
Murphy lived in tent and farmed a
forty-acre tract which he rented. For
two years he had lived in the Towahda
vicinity, sober, industrious, friendly
and honest-but silent. To no one,
as far as can be ascertained, did he
ever mention either relative or his
past life. Nothing about his humble
abode threw any light on these mat
ters. The only thing bearing his name
found among his effects was card
from a Wichita newspaper.

With the French Armies in France,
Aug. 28.-The first French army after
beating the Germans in their battle
positions before Roye took the town
today and now is pursuing the Ger
mans who are in retreat on line ex-
tending from Hallu to the region
south Of Roye.
At 4 o'clock this afternoon General
Debeney's men were in the region OF
Hattencourt from where the line
passes just west Of Cremery and
Gruny by Carpui and to the west Of
Roiglise and west of Verpillieres.
The French encircling tactics over
came the new German system Of de-
fense by the profuse use of machine
guns. Strongly protected and heavi-
ly armed positions were turned one
after the other until the enemy was
obliged to abandon the first and then
the second line Of defenses Of 1914,
upon which he fell back after being
driven back out of Montdidier.
The Germans are now relying on
their aviation to protect their retreat.
Their airplanes were out in great num-
ber today, attacking pursuing columns
and engaging the French squadrons
of observation and pursuit planes.
The final break in the German sec
ond line came this morning when after
repulsing a counter-a attack upon st.
Mard, the French infantry resumed
the offensive. They completely en-
circled Roye and threw the enemy
back seven miles east cf the town.
In spite of fatuigue in the long hard
campaign, General Debeney's men are
going ahead with the aYdor and en-
thusiasm of fresh troops.

The Atchison County Farm Bureau
has sent out warning to farmers that
quite number of hogs in the vicin-
ity of Effingham and Arlington have
died from cholera recently. After the
loss of the hogs had caused suspi
cion that 1t was cholera that killed
them, DR.. Winkler, government vet.
erinarian, was called in and after ex
animation of many of the hogs, de-
clared the disease was cholera. He
urges farmers to segregate sick hogs
at once and report the cases to tho
county agent or veterinarian.
