WHAT is MRS. FARMER TO DO?

One side of the shortage Of help in
harvesting season appears to have
been overlooked. While travelling men
and others are pledging themselves to
the assistance Of the farmers in gath
ering crops that otherwise might suf-
fer loss thru shortage of help SO far
nobody seems to have thought of the
housewife whose task is to provide for
feeding the help. What are we going
to do about that?
The farm women for years faced the
shortage Of help that now confronts
the male side of the farm. 1t is no
new thing for the farm wife to seek
help unavailingly and turn to noun
tain OF labor with her own hands.
Househelp has been scarce. 1t will be
scarcer as women take up mems
work.
Now that the men are offering help
to the farmer, what will the women
do about the situation Of the farm
woman? The men are offering their
services, not gratis but for pay. the
pay to go to the Red Cross or some
other such war activity. Will the
women match the men in this emer-
gency and offer their help 10 the farm
house under the same conditions?
There is no reason why the help
should be a gift to those who receive
it. On the contrary it should be
charged for reasonably and the pay
go to aid in winning the war. No diff
filucty need be experienced in getting
TO the work. Plenty Of automobiles will
be ready to transport women who de-
sire to assist thus and at the same
time make a very satisfactory dona-
ton to the Red Cross. A little organi-
zation under a competent chief would
create list of women under pledge
and on call to meet the situation. Why
not? The woman in the kitchen and
the dining room will need help quite as
much as the man in his fields.
Well. what are the women going to
do about it? Why not an organization
Of women? Why not woman's loyalty
league of the kind proposed for them
selves by the travelling men?

unconplainingly at that.
Let us hope that the sacrifice these
brave Jasper county men made may
not have been made in vain. Let us

Billy Bunny and His Friends

Uncle Lucky, and he sat down and
took out his old watch and chain and
wound it backwards, and then he got
up again and looked around for those
pink pajamas. And I guess If Billy
bunny hadn't come into the room just
then, Uncle Lucky would have said
something dreadful, for ne was get
ting awfully upset and nervous, you
see.
did you look In your leather col
lar box?" asked the little rabbit. mo,
didn't replied Uncle Lucky. But that's
the only place haven't except the al
abaster vase on the rnantlepiece."
And would you believe It, as soon as
Uncle Lucky looked in his collar box
he found his pink pajamas. can't
imagine how Billy Bunny ever thought
Of it. can you?
And after that Uncle Lucky said,
Lets have little music. It will
soothe savage beast I've heard, and
feel just like an angry tiger" So they
wound up the graphophone and this is
the song 1t sang:
II you ever drop your collar button
On the bedroom floor,
Don't stop to look. Just send a mes
senger
For dozen more.
To get upon your hands and knees,
And swallow dust until you sneeze,
Will make you cross the whole day
long,
So listen to this little song.
And then Uncle Lucky began to
laugh and after that he went to bed
and pleasant dreams and woke up the
next day to find that the little black
hen had worked all night and fixed up
his little house in apple=pie order.

COMING HOME TO RoosT.
IAnamosa Eureka.l

Former Governor Clarke has severed
his connection with Drake University.
He will engage in professional work.
This leads the Marshalltown Times
Republican to say that already the
hint is out that the ex-governor has
an eye on the senatorship." Thus 1T is
foreshadowed that Senator Cummins,
as he grows old under the burdens of
office, will be called upon to face the
issue with which he so loudly bounded
the late Senator Allison. The game of
politics is cut to the rule Of IAN eye
for an eye and tooth for TOOTH
Senator Cummins may find some en-.
barrassment and some chagrin in ap-
preaching another campaign with the
stamp too old for service" fixed upon
him, but those who rise up to fight for
his place find precedent In the cam
paigns he made before he won his seat.

Suutrmjnu,

There is fine sense of the arrival OF
righteous retribution when Americans
read Of the squirming Of the city fathers
of Cologne and Coblentz at the continu-
ed allied air raids upon their towns.
Only the other day a Cologne member
of the reichstag demanded OF that body
that 1t take steps to conclude treaties
to the end that this senseless murder
Of woman and children" he stopped. A
praiseworthy intent, certainly.
But who started this senseless muir
derT No ally has that CHASTITY respon-
sibility on his soul. It was the kaiser,
and Cologne and Coblentz applauaded-
until their own people fell victims to
the "All Highests" barbarism.
It is good that the Huns begin to
realize that 1t makes all the difference
in the world whose OK is sored."-

AN OLD TIMER.


S. A. Frisbee, one of the pioneer mer-
chants Of Cherokee county and who
still claims Aurelia as home, was in the
city Friday greeting old friends and
reviewing the days Of long ago. Mr..
Frisbee was buying grain and stock and
giving the farmers dried apples and
brown sugar for their 10 cent corn and
$3.50 per hundred hogs IN the early Se's.
There was no bank in his home town
at that time and he was making so
much money that he came to Cherokee
to make his deposite. At one time ne
shipped two cars of hops to Chicago
that he bought at $3.50 per hundred
and when he arrived home figured it
out that he had lost about $50 on the
shipment. During the severe winter in
northwest Iowa when they were unable
to get coal for fuel, he happened to
have about six or seven thousand
bushels of corn in the cribs at Aurelta
and he sold this to the people for 10
cents per bushel to use as fuel.

a R.., ACCOMPLISHMENT

People who are inclined to grow i'm
patient over food orders and to wonder
If any real good is accomplished by
abstaining from the use of certain
articles may be encouraged by the off,
cial report that 120,ooO,000 bushels of
wheat were saved from the tables Of
the United States in a single year,
helping by that tremendous amount
the fighting strength Of our armies and
those of our allies. We have not only
strengthened the fighting arm abroad,
but we have also strengthened our
selves, for we have demonstrated our
ability to sacrifice and unite and or
ganize for the great cause.-Lincoln
