Work Women Can Do.

Women and girls who wish to help
the farms produce more food can be Of
immediate service In the lighter farm
tasks such as fruit and berry picking.
sorting and packing. They can help
over-busy farm women In their house
hold tasks. especially In preparing the
large amount Of food needed for har.
vesting crews.
Indirectly they can help the farmers
with their heavy work by taking the
place Of their men folks who perform
lighter tasks In Office, store, or factory,
thereby relieving these men at critical
times to 60 out to the farms and help
with the heavy work unsulted to wom-

David F. Houston, secretary Of agri.

many towns and cities there are men
who have had farming experience, who
are able-bodied and who doubtless
would be willing to serve the nation
In the field Of agriculture at this time.
Especially for the seasonal strains Of
planting. cultivating and harvesting, It
will not be too much to ask such men
to aid the farmers In the necessary un-

SPAIN TO FURNISH SUPPLIES
viii Supply PershIng Following Ac-
tien Of United States.

Washington, Feb. 23-An economic
agreement with Spain, under which
General Pershing will get mules, army
blankets and other materials In that
country In return for cotton. oil ana
other commodities from the United
States, has been signed in Madrid.
The State department was so ao-
vised by Ambassador Willard.
Success OF the negotiations was
welcome news to officials here, as the
ability Of General Pershing to buy
supplies in Spain will save shipping
tonnage. and enable the general to
build up his reserve stores much more
rapidly than probably otherwise would
have been possible. The, negotiations
had been In progress for nearly q
month. They followed refusal of
Spain to supply large number Of
mules, 100000 blankets and other
materials ordered by General Perish
ing last month.
The United States retaliated by cut
ting on coal TO- sQanish ships.
