SHORTAGE OF HELP
RAISES FARM WAGES
Farmers Offering SIS a Week
For Work on Farms-May De.
lay Putting in seeds.

jefferson City Mo-, Feb. 21.-With
the approach of spring there is great
uneasiness among the farmers in this
part of the state lest they be unable
to obtain sufficient help to raise the
crops they are being urged so strong
ly to do.
The profits in farming are said to
be SO large these days that it APP
pears no urging is necessary to in
duce the average farmer to do his lev
ell best, but farm help presents a
problem such as agricultural COM
munities never heard before.
1t is stated on very good authority
that farmers in this part Of the state
are offering sl5 week for help and
that few of them are getting the
workers they had hoped for. Many
Of the young farmers are in the ma
tional army and more are scheduled
70 60.
In the cities SIS week would not
be considered high wages to the aver
age young man with intelligence and
desire to work, for in town one who
who is working for hire must feed
and lodge himself. These two impor-
tant items, together with laundry
work. are a part Of the perquisites Of
those who work on the farm as hired
men. The hours, however, on the
farm during the busy season are any
where from four to six hours longer.
No such thing as an eight hour
working scale on a farm was ever
heard of in this state.
1t is not clear just yet where the
farmers are to get their extra help
to SOW and gather recordlbreaking
crops Farm help is the most serious
question in the matter of food pro-
duets that is confronting the rural
sections of Missouri. What the farm
ers say they want is intelligent, in
dustrious help. They would not feed
the average town loafer for all he
could or would do, they say.
Several days ago farmer of near
Advance was in the Cape looking for
farm hands offering to pay young men
$50 o month and board. This farm
er said help was 30 scarce in Stoddard
county at the present time that the
farmers were compelled to outbid COM
mercial enterprises in order to get
the help.
Leo Meyer and his family living on
South Sprigg street, will leave Sunday
for Helix, Montana to work on a
farm. He told his friends he was
offered $50 month besides a home
and board for his family.

Taken from Mary Roberts Rinchart's famous novel K, as pub lished by Fouphton. MiHlin, Co.,, q story which had two million readers this intimate disclosure Of American life comes to FOXs not only with u wonderful cast. but also with the genius touch of Lois Weber. tho Bel aaco Of the screen, in every situation and setting.
 Just as one never forgets the scent of delicious altar of roses. so you'll never forget the lovely picture Of in Noccnt girlhood madc hy Mildred Harris. the famous heroine of The Price of a Good Time" when she comes on in The Doctor and the Wo- man. The shocking revelations Of love dishonorcd, which comes to the little nurse sidney tMildred Harri&) are made doubly affecting bE the amazing talent of this youthful star. Every striking ~ituatom from the
 
 bare home to the cIectIifylng accnca in the great hospital, is heightened by the artistic genius of this little won der girl. Supporting Mildred Harris, '"The Doctor and the Woman. has one of the most admirably chosen, perfectly balanced casts that an aud icnce has seen in many months. ZoIla CauNs ''Carlotta' is partjCUlarlE strong and fine, while True Board- man as 'J<", the great surgeon whom CarIotta ruined for reasons best ',noUn to herself will give FOX pa irons a figure with whose self sacri- ticr every man and woman will sym pothizc The Doctor and the Wo-. 1lun" is a picture that you will not forget in a, hurry.

PICTURE AMERICAS
 HYMN OF HATE"

The Kaiser. the Beast of Berlin" has proven all that it's press notices claimed it would be and even moro. Certainly no picture that has ever been shown in this city has so cx- cited the audiences that they become stamping mad and growl at the kaiser on the screen in much the same manner that they would if he were actually there in person. Amer ica needs a picture of this sort to arouse the people to d realization of the kind of an enemy we are fighting and it's showing at the Rialto should result in the making of new armies of determined fighters who will make all sacrifice necessary to rid the earth of this diaboIicaI murderer of women and children The picture is shown at Keeney's theatcr.
 The Kaiser, the Boust of Berlin" is the striking title of the remark able photoplay being shown at the Rtalto, @ title that leads the spccta- tor to wonder what the picture is about; what it shows and if it really shows what it's title suggests A visit to see the production allays all doubt Never has a human being been SO fayed or so bitterly denounced as the kaiser in this startling picture which shows actual occurrences for which this maddened monarch is respon- sible It is certainly making boiling mad Americans with it's every show ing on the screen.
 Just what it would mean if Ger many and its violent leaders should win the present war Is to be shown local people in the big, anger breed ing photoplav. '"The Kaiser, the Beast of Berlin" which is just now stir ring thousands of Boston play-goers at the Globe theater.

There is one form of patriotism which does not make a strong appeal tC ne.
 It is the high sounding. painless patriotism Of the person who wishes he or she were in a position to make some great sacrifice.
 For instance, I heard a woman who had tour daughters say that she wished they were all sons so that she might send them to the front.
 Tn the group to whom she spoke, there were two people with sons or brothers who had not gone to the front.
 She evidently felt she was rcbuk- ing them by her patriotism, showing them what she would do in their l,laces.
 Perhaps they needed a rcbuke. But ! don't think she was the one 10 give
 Maybe she would have sent four sons to the front with q smile. No enc could prove she would have. and nc one could prove she wouldn't. The naked fact remained that she was altogether too comfortable and safe, in the sex of her children to boast of what she would do, to mothers who were actually facing the crisis.
 - wish my sons were grown up," i% also q faNorite assertion among women with boys of very tender years. 1 notice that women with cns within five years of the danger limit have felt enough Of the real anxiety not to be so bOaStfuI
 Another is: 'I wish I were a man. I'd have been at the front long ago.
 Maybe you would, and maybe you wouldn't.
 Anyway, you are not a man. and isn't it rather graceless to take ad- vantage of that security. to boast
 If people want to make big saCri- fees there are plenty lying about lOCSe to be made without wishing for sons to send. You can cut yourself l down to an utter simplicity of diet, l YOU can give all your spare time to war work, you can go into d muni- l ton 0ry,-sureIy none of these 1 things would be as hard as to give l un son, or to go out into the 1 trenches yourself. Are you doing l them?
 Mind you, this is not meant to 1 justify the women who are hanging ; on to their sons, who ate still say ] ing, in effect, "1 didn't raise my bow ; to be q soldier. I'd rather have some other mothers boy do that i, JoU.' ]

DOROTHY DALTON
 AT THE LYCEUM

There is q friendly, though in- tenso contest on at the Lyceum the ater the first half Of this week be- tween the motion picture feature 'LoVo Lcttcrs," starring Dorothy Dimples Dalton. and the vaudeville bill, headed by the Kalaluhi Enter tainers, for premier honors. and thus far it has proved d case of nip and tuck, with both sides going strong. The only way to settle the question is by referring it to patrons. but in the minds of the huge throngs that crowded the thcater yesterday after noon and last evening, there is strong doubt as to which leads, so the mat ter remains unsettled.
 There is no doubt thaf Miss Dalton was never seen to better advantage than in Love Lotters,' and likewise thero is not the slightest doubt that the LYceum vaudeville bill is in q. class by itself. Thus, quality versus quality, or rather, quality hand in hand with quality. For Monday att diences. those of yesterday were the sort that warned the heart of the managemeut:s Almost every available seat was taken, and it is feared that before Wednesday, night, when the bill has it's final presentation, it may be found .nccessary 10 turn people away. ..4
 The excellence of this bill is such that when news of it's quality spreads, there will be so great a rush for ad mittanCe to the theator that meas ures, necessary although regrettable, will have to be taken to conform to | the fire laws. The picture feature, because it consumes the greater amount of time will be treated first. l. In "Lovo Letter&' we find one of those romantic silly girls of the burn ing heart variety, under the spell of the leader of an Egyptian cult.
 His mad lOve-making wins her, but she is saved in time to prevent fall ing too deeply Later when she re- covers from her attack of foolish ness she marrics her guardian, a dis trict attorney, and her life becomes miserable through threats by the Egyptian that he will expose her to her husband by showing letters she wrote to him while under his spell. In order to get the love. letters she goes to the apartment of tho man whose existence threatens to destroy her happiness and escapes after
 
 he is found dead. and her husband. who conducts the investigation finds traces of the presence of a woman.
 Needless to say, there arc develop mcnts of q rapid-fire order that fol- low. with some excellent situations to make the picture a wonderful dra- matiC success. The Kalaluhi Enter tainers present a vaudeville offering that is unique, rendering Hawaiian and popular airs on string inStru ments, and vocal numbers that go over in excellent manner. An Hawaiian solo dance by 8 female member of the company is pleasing attraction. Tho rest of the bill bal ances off to make the list tOp-notch- CT from start to finish L-yCGum pa irons have something good in store when they visit today or tomorrow.

BOARDING OF FLOUR
IS SERIOUS OFFENCE
Report Surplus Flour at Once
and Avoid Prosecution. No
Excuses Accepted.

About three weeks ago State Food
Administrator Atkinson sent our
request that all surplus flour and
sugar be reported to his office in
Bozeman. 1t was pointed out at that
time that the location of surplus -four
lis military necessity of great inn
iportance.
The people of the state have al
ready responded by reporting nearly
100000 pounds of excess -four and
more reports are coming in daily.
Where reports are received permits
are issued to the owners to hold it..
Forty-fve people in Valley county
have reported 1850 pounds to date
and are free from danger of arrest
under the boarding charge.
The reports from some commune
ties have far exceeded those of others
and it is certainty that a great
many have still stocks of excess flour
and sugar that have not been reported.
The food administration before be-

last warning through the newspapers
of the state. BY all means report any
flour or sugar that you are holding in
excess of thirty days supply as you
may save yourself considerable trou-

offense today, when the allied armies
are fighting against fearful German
offensive and with their food supply
