COLLEGE TO ADVISE
ON BULK HANDLING
Three Field Specia VIII Help the
Farmers Solve Problems of
Building Granaries and
Elevators

Three field specialists in problems
pertaining to the bulk handling of
grain employed comparatively by the
State College extension service and
the United States Bureau of Farm
Markets will in the immediate future
be put into the field to help wheat
producers and shippers get ready to
handle the 1918 wheat crop in bulk
rather than in sacks as heretofore.
The three men comparatively as
gned for this purpose by the State
College and the L. S. Bureau of Mar
kets are George J. Standage, NJ. X.
Snyder and George Wehrwein, all of
whom have been assembling data on
this subject during recent months.
In making this announcement Di-
rector w. S. Thornber of the Exten-
sion Service states that from all evil
dence now in hand there is no appar-
ent prospect of a lower price than 25
cents for grain bags, against eight
cents in former years. He states
that there is now scant hope that the
supply of bags will exceed 100000
for the Inland Empire wheat crop
that normally requires at least TO-
100000 grain bGgs.
The present aspect of the situa-
ton is that there will be only bags
enough to care for a fifth of the
wheat crop says Director Thornber.
Even if farmers could afford to buy
the sacks at 20 to 81 cents, the prob
lem would not be solved, for at least
four-fifth of the wheat crop would be
left out of bags. This, in word, is
the magnitude of the sack problem
confronting Inland Empire wheat
men"
Outlining somewhat of the plan
by which the bulk grain specialists
will work Director Thornber says
that it is the desire of the extension
service of the college at Pullman to
receive information concerning in
dividuals or organizations who CON
template the erection of elevators, in
order that the extension service may
make available to them the assist
ance of the state and federal experts
who are specializing on this problem
in the wheat zones Of Washington.
These specialists will be prepared
! to discuss with individual farmers
and groups of farmers the require
ments of his farm from the stand
point of bulk-handling; and, also to
give suggestions and blueprints and
specifications covering various styles
of portable and stationary farm gran
aries suitable type of grain wagons,
! portable elevators cleaning machn-
cry and other devices necessary and
desirable in the efficient handling of
grain In the same way, the work
will be extended to help meet the
requirements of communities in the
matter of capacity and types of ele-
yators, the special desirable features
of elevator construction and equip
ment and the nj ost efficient methods
of handling the grain.
! Director Thornber states that
while the work is to commence with
three men in the field, it is the eX-
pectation to enlarge the number thus
engaged, and to put forth every pos
sible effort at the critical time wheG
the wheat crop begins to move in
bulk from the field to the terminals.

In spite of unsettled conditions,
the total American trade with Russia
amounted to $438,0O0,0OO in 1917,
a decrease of only $39,OO0,O00, as
compared with 1916. This decrease
was in the trade with Asiatic Russia
and is attributed to congestion and
import restrictions at Vladivostok.

AMONG WORST or BAD HABITS
Procrastination, When One Has Work
That Must Be Done, Bound to
Result In Failure.

He was an excellent workman. Few
things were in his speciality which he
could not do better than his mates.
But he was not q success. Others who
had worked at their calling much less
time passed him in the upward climb
of progress. His fault, his crime, lay
in one thing-he had the tomorrow"
habit.
When he had three days in which to
do piece of work, he squandered the
first two in idle speculation as to the
amount of time absolutely necessary to
complete his task. If he decided that,
by hurrying, he could perform that
task in six hours, ne temporized until
the beginning of the six-hour period.
He was eternally loafing and hurrying,
eternally wasting time and making
time do double service. His work be-
came more and more slovenly. Other
worlmen surpassed him. Before long
he was superannuated.
If you find yourself figuring on the
amount of time you can loaf and still
get your work done, watch out. If you
do not, the tomorrow habit will get
you.--Milwaukee Journal.

BARNS PART IN SOCIAL LIFE
One Used to Be Good Deal i
Of an Autocrat. -2sS

In simpler times, and In parts of the
United States where simple customs
prevailed, the popular small boy Of
the neighborhood was not necessarily
the son of the richest or most pr0mis
nent family, but, more likely, the boy
in whose yard there was q good rain
barrel, a smooth cellar door, or a barn.
The boy who would now and then,
from pure favor, or in return for mar
bles, or some other valuable consid-
Grafton, permit other boys to 'holler"
down his rain barrel, or slide down
his cellar door, or, greatest privilege
of all, play in his fathers barn, was
the boy whose friendship was best
worth cultivating.
Some boy, in the small community
of generation ago, was sure to have
a father who possessed a barn, and,
generally speaking, he intuitively felt
his power, and exercised it over the
other boys on his street or in his part
Of the town. Wherever he went, the
barn stood back of him and gave him
support and Influence. He could say
and do things to the other boys that
they would not dare say or do to one
another simply because the boy he
said or did things to could see the
barn door behind him, open or closed,
as the case might be.
To be one of those entitled to ad.
mission to the barn was to be in the
right set; to be denied the privilege Of
playing in the barn was to suffer So
cial OStracism.

HEROES, ALL OF THEM

(News item: Sixty-six Americans
in France underwent the ravages OF
trench fever that physicians might
study its causes and results.)
Though there may not be medal for
the gallantry displayed
BY the laws who faced the shadows
that they might the better aid
In the fight upon the fevers that are
raging at the 'front.'
Though there's only Commentator"
for the boys who bore the brunt
When they vaulted through the valley
of the tortures of the sick,
They are worthy as the fellows where
the bayonets are thick,
Though they didn't face the cannon,
though they didn't meet the foe
Still they offered up their bodies that
the fever pest might go.
Though they didn't have the privilege
to slash their way to life
They were guided through the Coun-
try where the suffering is rife.
Not chance had they to battle with
the enemy they faced
For it gripped them from the No
where, as across the Field they
raced.
With clasp of hate and fury to their
bodies, how it chung!
But they shook it from them safely!
Let their praises now be sung.
Let another cross of honor by the
nation now be struck
For the boys who fought diseases,
and they won because they stuck!

WHAT ABOUT THE BABY

Atlanta, Ga, June PIT will glad
ly give up wheat entirely for myself"
writes the mother of a young babe
to the United States Food Admins
tration, "but | do feel that the babies
of the country should be protected"
And SO does the Food Administra-
ton. Never has a ruling been made
for the trade nor suggestion offered
in regard to voluntary rationing with
out care being taken to safeguard
the health of the young.
Adults should give up their share
of the wheat ration, that the children
may have it-just as those in abund-
ant health should give up their share
that there may be plenty for the in
valids.
1t is a mothers first instinct to pro-
tect her baby's food suddenly 81
tect her young. If her baby's food
suddenly disagrees with it and a
neighbor or family doctor throws out
the suggestion that this disturbance
may be due to the use of wheat sub
stitutes, it is but natural that this wo-
man should become alarmed and re-
sentful about these dietetic changes.
1t may be her first real pinch of the
war.
But there is no cause for hysteria.
Truth is, babies used to thrive long
before wheat crackers were fed to
them at all. Barley water and barley
cruel are well-known panaceas for
the baby's digestice troubles. Rice
and barley have been used the world
over for the gastro-intestinal diseases
of children, replacing wheat.
Furthermore, every mother has six
pounds of wheat per month from
which to feed her babe. Instead of
scrambling madly for wheat crackers,
why not try home made zwieback?
This could be prepared by merely
baking a wheat dough in very small
loaves to give as much crust as pos
sible. then slicing this loaf and put
ting the pieces into the oven to be
thoroughly dried out.
In Europe, adults are making every
food sacrifice for their children.
American mothers and fathers will
gladly give up their share of wheat
that their children may have it. But
let us be sure that the wheat substi-
tutes are to blame for the child's ill
ness. There may be some specific
wheat substitute that does not agree
with some specific child. But such
instances are rare
If corn or oatmeal do not agree with
the child, try rice or barley. If the
bought crackers are proving indiges-
tible, make homemade ones. But let
there be patriotism without panic
even in the feeding of the child.
