WAR SAVINGS STAMPS

The machinery by which the pur-
chase of Thrift Stamp or a War
Savings Stamp is to be made as
easy and convenient as the purchase
of a spool-of thread or a pound of
nails, in every community in the
United States, is rapidly being es-
tablished. Already $4,000 War
Savings Stamp Agencies have been
established and by the close of
January this number will have been
increased by 100000.
In addition to these agencies
there will be 100000 "sales sta
TONS" which do not receive direct
authorization to make the sales
from the Secretary Of the Treasury,
but obtain their stamps from au-
thorized agents and sell them over
their counters at their cashiers
windows, and other places.
Fifty thousand post Offices now
have War Savings Stamps on sale
and 10000 banks and 5000 individ-
ual firms and corporations have
The Mt. Sterling advocate. (Mt. Sterling, Ky.) 1890-current, 1918-02-05

been appointed agents. Nine thou
sand interstate corporations having
places of business in several States
will constitute $4,000 additional
agencies.
An intensive campaign is now on
for the establishing of War Savings
societies which can be organized by
10 or more persons in any COM
munity, school, club, church, fac
tory or Office and can be affiliated
with the National War Savings
Committee at Washington upon APP
pication.

EARM-HELp SPECIALISTS

FHuW-NLAT OF GttN@t@t'
To cooperate effectively in the
farm-l problem with the United
States Department Of Labor, State
councils Of defense, State commits
sioners of agriculture and labor,
and other official State and local
agencies concerned with supplying
needed farm labor, the Department
Of Agriculture has divided the
country into four farm-labor divis-
ions: -Q) New England and North
eastern States, (2) Southern States,
(3) North Central States, and (4)
Western States.
Each of these divisions is in
charge Of a representative of the
Department of Agriculture, known
as supervising farm-help special
list, who supervises the work Of the
departments farm-help specialists
assigned to the farm-labor work in
single States or two or more adj
joining States. These farm help
specialists will cooperate directly
with State agencies, central and
local employment agencies of the
United States Department Of Labor,
and with the county agents and
community farin-help committees
which will be charged directly with
meeting labor needs in their specific
localities.
The farm-help specialists through
preliminary labor surveys will en-
deavor to ascertain in advance the
prospective needs for extra labor in
each community. They will work
with State and local agencies to
supply labor Deficiencies from local
supplies if possible, or from the
nearest point where labor can be Sc
cured outside the community in
need of assistance. All local sources
of labor first will be drawn upon,
and only when the fullest possible
utilization of local labor proves an
adequate will labor be brought in
from outside. In cases of necessity,
however, through the Department
of Agriculture and the Department
of Labor, arrangements will be
made for Interstate movement of
help, in which the Department of
Labor will cooperate in obtaining
extra labor for farm purposes from
the populous communities.
1t is pointed out that the farmer
in need of labor should proceed as,
follows: He should report his need
to his county agent or to a mem
Der of the community farm help
committee. If possible, his need
will be supplied from lists of men
available in the county. If local Ia
Dor is inadequate, the county agent
or committee will report to the
State farm-labor specialist, who, in
cooperation with the State officials,
will draw on the nearest available
labor within the State.
A farmer who does not know the
name of his county agent or those
on the community committee should
make known his need to his State
farm-help specialist, who will d.
rect his request into the proper

over the front of the wagon for it, lost
his balance, and became tangled in the
double trees. Mr.. Whealen who had
preceded his son with a load of sand
to the barn came back to help the boy

the team standing at the gate leading
to the yard and thought it strange. He
found the unconscious form of his son
lying beneath the wagon.

broken. While the body was bruised

slightly the bruises were not serious
to have been caused by the wheeis
passing over the lads body.
About an hour and half after tne
accident the boy regained semi-con
seriousness. and was partially rat'ohai
at intervals until the end came SIN
hours later.
Master jeremiah Ralph Whealen was

Farmers Have Recourse IL Wheat is

Because of complaints regarding al

mills and elevators on the buying mar
gins of wheat, the United States food
administration has notified all county

ducers that they have recourse. The
administration says:
