Winter Wheat.

Winter Wheat.
| In order to meet the 1000 winter
wheat acreage, which is the quota
given out by the government for
Hamilton county, it will be necessary
for each township to have 11S acres
or each 160-acre farm about one
acre. The government is not asking
any one farmer to plant a large acre
age, but just small acreage. We can
afford to run the risk of winter kill
| ing in order to meet the wheat de-
mands for our grywing army and
navy.
Winter wheat will ou;yield spring
wheat generally, if it withstands the
cold weather. Much of the spring
wheat was affected with scab and
rust this season. While as rule the
winter wheat was free from diseases!
many farmers have had good sue
cess with this grain by drilling 1t in
to the standing corn some time in
September. The cornstalks will hold
the snow, which serves as a blanket
for the wheat. When it is put on
stubble, it is best to disk the ground
and then pillow the field fairly deep
The chief point to remember IS that
wheat needs a firm seed bed. A light
covering of straw or manure can be
applied late in the fall or early Win
ter which will greatly aid in prevent
ing winter killing.
Each county in the state will have
wheat seed survey to determine
the amount of seed available. There
will be state exchange wien mead
quarters at Ames to furnish seed for
counties where it is needed. The
seed can be obtained at a reasonable
price. Any farmer in Hamilton coun-
ty who has any winter wheat for
sale should notify the county agent,
giving the amount, variety and price.
When one of your neighbors asks
you to plant a few acres, put down
your name. The boys at the front
! are risking all; We can risk few
: acres of winter wheat.

FIRST VICTORY; THEN PEACE

New York World-The American
people once went to the very verge of
national dishonor in order to keep
peace with Germany. Having been
driven into a wal which they sincere
ly sought to avoid, having been com-
PEELED to mobilize all their military.
financial, industrial and economic re-
sources in self defense. having been
Obliged by events to devote practical
ly their entire energy to a conflict
which was forced upon them, they will
not be ready to discuss peace until
they have finished the job of whipping
the German armies and destroying
Prussian militarism by the superior
might of democracy. As soon as that
task is done, they expect to have a
great deal to say about the subject
of peace, and it Will be their own kind
Of peace.

TO THE LAST DOLLAR

Omaha Notwithstanding death
knell Of military autocracy is sound
ing. If not another American soldier
were sent to Europe Germany would
certainly be beaten. But America is
going to send millions more soldiers
and send billions more of dollars to
support them, to the end that the war
may be won speedily and won SO de-
c~isively that there can be no question
ing what he victory means. Now of
all times is the time for us in Amer
lea to bring TO bear every ounce of
energy we can command, every dollar
we can raise. to finish the job and
finish it quickly. Every dollar spent
now means two dollars saved later.
Every life offered up on freedoms al
tar now means the saving of the many
additional lives that would be exact
ed should the wal be needlessly pro
longed.

AIRPLANE ACCIDENTS.

There seems 10 have been a general
misconception about the casualties in
our aviation training camps. That
there has been lamentably large
number of accidents is undeniable.
We have had weeks when almost
every day three or four fiiers were re-
ported killed or injured The case of
former Mayor Mitchell of New York
called special attention to a wastage
of American manhood all the more
deplorable because II occurred in the
period OF tutelage. and seemed with
out military compensation.
All losses. however, are compare
tive, TO be judged only in the light of
similar experience elsewhere. 1t is
now announced that as a matter of
fact our flying schools all this time
have been safer than usual For the
last IL months our aviation corps has
actually established a worlds record
for safety in military air-training.
There is said to have been only one
fatality 70 every $500 hours of fly
ing. Considering the short average
duration Of fight. this means that in
the training stage our army aviators
literally make several thousand
flights for every life lost.
The misconception is due to a fail
ure to take into account the great
number OF men engaged. The avia-
ton corps is now larger than our
regular army was before the war.
Filters are being trained. at many huge
camps in this country and abroad, by
scores Of thousands Here and there,
from day TO day man is hurt. That
is 20 be expected. The figures them
selves disprose charges Of gross care
lessness in the construction of the
planes or the handling of the men.

This season Of the year brings a big
increase in the number OF people
whose health is impaired. as they be-
lieve. by "oyerwork" a doctor TO
whom many OF these broken-down
patients bring their troubles declares
that. after careful questioning, he
finds that virtually none OF them work
as hard as he does-and he is in per-
feet health.
Why the difference? II rests on a
truth heard often enough from the
preachers OF sane living, and yet
never needed enough by the mass Of
men and women. II is not the work,
as this physician explains, that is
running his patients health. Work it.
self hurts little. In fact IL hurts peo-
pie who are healthy in body and mind,
not at all. What hurts them is worry,
or oyer-eating, or over-indulgence in
stimulants. or. all three together.
Says the Duluth Herald:
People who keep their minds
clear and cool. who take things
philosophically as they come; who
discipline their Wills TO look on the
cheerful side OF things; who eat what
they need. proportioned 10 their physi-
cal activity; who take stimulants not
at all or, II they ever do, never take
them to whip their haggering
strengthened people can do a prodi-
gious amount OF work and never
dream Of such a thing as 'oyerwork.
Healthy people-people who live
healthy lives and keep healthy minds
and order their lives inexorably I'M
der the rule OF a calm spirit a spirit
that keeps superior TO petty annoy
ances and refuses to become the slave
OF numbing. paralyzing, corrupting
fears and worries-do not know what
'overwork' means They can keep on
till they are too tired 10 go further,
and then after a nights sleep be up
and ready for another days eager and
willing toll
This is gospel truth, particularly
worthy of acceptance and practice in
hot weather. when so many imagi-
nary ills develop and so many false
remedies are sought.
