FARMERS ASK
SOME QUERIES
School Meetings Accomplishing
Much GOOd-Speakers Must
Be Up On Their Subject
To Explain W. S. s.

The school district meetings, that
are being held throughout Lyons and
Spring Valley townships under the d.
rectiOn Of War Savings headquarters
in Baxter Springs, are having the de-
sired results. The farmers are at
tending in gOOdly numbers and are
greatly interested in the campaign. A
feature of each meeting is the number
of questions that are asked from the
audience, and the man who makes the
talk at q school district meeting must
certainly be well informed or he is
going to get into deep water quickly.
All manner of questions are asked.
There seems to be a good understand
ing of the Baby Bond from the outset,
but the plans Of the campaign and the
methods adopted by the government
to have the quotas pledged are not un-
derstood until these district meetings
are held. 1t would also appear that
the farmers have not been buyers Of
Baby Bonds thus far, or not in such
proportions as have the townspeople,
and they have not acquainted them
selves with the Baby Bond idea. The
speakers at the district meetings are
therefore in a position to explain in
full.
There were two more very success
full meetings held last night at the
Burger school in district 30 and at
the Pleasant View school in district
100. Rev. John Pearce was the speak
er at Pleasant View and ]. w. Kali
tenbach at Burger. At each place
there were from fifty to sixty persons
in attendance, and after the main talk
was made there were broadsides OF
questions asked from all portions Of
the crowd. This indicated that the
farmers are determined to make the
campaign and raise their quotas on
the day set aside by President Wilson,
June %.
Miss Irene Roberts and Miss Nil
dred Popplewell were the singers at
the Burger meeting and the Baxter
uuartette at the Pleasant View school
house. It is developing at each meet
ing that the musical portion Of the
program is very important and is one
of the big assets in arOusing interest.

BAXTER SPEAKERS
ARE WELL RECEIVED
Meetings At School Houses for
the Purpose Of Explaining
the War Savings Cam
paign.

The hrst meetings, now being held
under direction Of Baxter Springs
headquarters, proved highly success-
full last night at Brush Greek and
Willow Creek school houses. The
speakers were r. e. ROsenstein and
Rev. John Garretson, respectively.
Bosh men had highly approeiativs aud
fences, the citizens Of the two school
districts evidently being thoroughly
interested In this present campaign
foI the sale Of Baby Bonds.
Miss Mildred Popplewell accom-
panied RE. Rosenstein and party,
there being two automobiles Of people
attending from this city, and sang at
the opening and closing Of the meet
ings. While the Baxter quartette-
Rev. John Pearce, z. M. Mitchell, An
drew Moore and C: 8. Hunt-accom-
panied Rev. Garretson to Willow
Greek and rendered q couple Of good
sci ections. At both Willow Creek and
Brush Creek the meetings were held
out of doors on the school campus.
there seems to be a disposition, at
these meanings, to ask many questions
of the speakers. This was particul-
ar!y true, last night, at the Willow
Creek school house, and the Baxter
spe akers are in trim to answer all in
auiries that will be asked.
Another excellent meeting, held
yesterday, was that addressed by AL
F. Williams at the Blue Mound mine
at 1890 noon, also under the direct
on Of Baxter headquarters. E. M.
Richardson attended the meeting with
Mr.. Williams. It was a very enthus-
ias.ic session, there being fully 400
mine employees in attendance and al
terward Mr.. Wagner, the superintend-
ent, stated that his men would be
1904 investors IN Baby Bonds.

OVER MILLION
BUSHELS WHEAT
COUNTY CLERK SHOWS THE
ACREAGE OF WHEAT
HAS INCREASED
A MILLION BUSHELS N CO.
Garden and Spring Valley Town
ships Have Near 5000 Acres
This County Among Larg-
est In State of Kansas.

Modern Light: The county clerk
has just finished tabulating figures
which show the acreage Of wheat for
the whole county, by townships, also
the acreage planted to corn. Chero-
kee county farmers are helping win
the war by harvesting just 15,777
acres more wheat this year than was
grown last year. The corn acreage
is 1902 less than last year, while
there are 6,276 acres more in oats
than last year.
Conservative estimates place the
average wheat yield at Is bushels to
the acre. II this estimate Is about
correct the county will produce in
the neighborhood of 1,200,8lO BUSH
els Of wheat alone. This will proba-
bly, be the largest crop ever harvest
ed in the county. There have been
years when the yield was larger but
never before with such an enormous
acreage. Sheridan township leads the
county with l2AO9 acres. Lowell
township has the lowest number of
acres 1893.
The county will be among the
largest producers of wheat in the
state. Usually the yield for the
whole state Is considerably less than
100 million bushels.
The following table shows the acre
ape nv townships for 1917 and 1918:

The Blue Flint Mining Company has
moved its office to Quapaw, where the
business of the company will be con-
Quoted for convenience. The Blue
Flint Company is developing n lease
in the Sunnyside field near the Red
Eagle mine. The manner in which the
office Of the Blue Flint was secured
illustrates the methods of doing bus
mess in the mining field, which is diff
ferent than in any other section. Man
ager Stewart found an office room
vacant in the Rosenour building and
$50 found that Mr.. Rosenour was in
Springfield, Mo. He mailed a check

were paying for similar rooms and
at once began to move his office fix

Washington public with the Tank

ganization are to find jobs for de-
mobilized Tank Corps men and to as
sist soldiers of the Army generally in
the transition from khaki to civilian
life.
Mounted on three huge Army trucks
squads of men from the TANK corps
training camp will go through tne ely
soliciting subscriptions to the new
publication of the Tank Corps Treat
'em Rough advertised as a magazine
for fighting men and their hackers.
Seeking Subscriptions.
The plans of the Tank Corps
League. whose president is Mrs Ever

in the magazine. Offices are being

These men. for the most part were
skilled artisans. The Tank Corps
League proposes to get them oack
their old jobs or to find better peace

left to enter the tank branch OIL the
service.
Outlining the policy of the league,
the magazine says:
ut will not be long before millions of
men who have been wearing the service
uniform of the United States Army
will be released from their voluntary
obligations and once again vii! nave

ed soldiers of the Tank Corps and
their dependent relatives. has decided
10 enlarge its activities, and to be the
friend and adviser of every man who
has worn the uniform of Uncle Sam
and who seeks aid and advice.
Money cannot. but in part, solve
the problem. Deep thinking, true
friendship. cooperation and true red
blooded -Americanism are the only
things which can put the United
States on a firm and normal basis.
For these things the Tank Corps
League will work.
