Great Wheat Stocks
Isolated.

It's the shortage in ships that
is putting the Allies and the
United States on wheat rotlons.
Great stocks Of wheat are lso-
lated In India, and Australia. At
great sacrifice In ship space and
use the Allies are forced 70 Sc
cure some wheat from Argentina.
On January 1, Australia had
stored 1OO,OOO.OOO bushels Of
wheat that was ready for ex-
port-but there were no ships.
Then came the new crop with
an exportable surplus of 10000.
900 bushels. Now Australia has
approximately 1S0,0OO,OO0 bush-
els waiting for ships.
India, at the same time, had
100000 bushels OF wheat
stored for export. During April
100000 bushels more out of
the new crop will be added to
the pile.
Argentina closed the last ship
ping season with 11,000.OO0
bushels Of wheat left In the
stock available for export. The
new crop will add 100000 to
the left over.
Il is not a problem that the
wheat does not exist in the
world-it is entirely a problem
Of shipping, which has thrown on
America the obligation of divid-
Ing our stock with the Allies.

LOCAL JUDGES.

Now that the election for Supreme
and District Judges has been held and
the official count made, it will be in
order to make a retrospective view OF
the Sixth District and note from a
historical standpoint, what a strong
array of legal talent has served on
the bench since the reorganization OF
the Judicial system of the state. '.
The Sixth district comprises the
counties of Jasper and Powshiek on
the north and Washington and Keokuk
on the east, with old Mahaska at the
center of the angle, and in travelling
back and forth over the district in
holding the various terms Of court, the
Judges pass through Oskaloosa as the
capital of Mahaska county. 1'.
In the matter of location and repre-
sentation, Jasper county has had in
past years Judges H. S. Winslow 1875
to rs, ]. c. Cook 1879 to 'S2, David
Ryan 1887 to '9S, w. G. Clements 1899
to 1910. and Henry Silwold from 1913
10 '18.
Mahaska county comes next with
Judge William LoIghridge in 1861 to
&c ]. Kelly Johnson from 1883 to "a,
Ben Mccoy 1894 TO '9s, and Byron w.
Preston 1903 to 10.
Poweshiek county contributed
Judges L. G.. Blanchard under the old
circuit codrt system from 1859 to 80,
w. r. Lewis from 1881 to SO, and he
also served the district from 1887 to
80, John T. Scott 1899 to 1906, and
John F. Talbot 1911 to 'ls.
Keokuk county comes with Judges
Ezekiel s. Sampson 1867 to '76 and X.
e. Willcockson 1907to IS. Washing
ton at the extreme east end has only
Judge A. r. Dewey from 1891 to 1902.
1t is now quite a coincidence that his
son c. A. Dewey has jast been elected
Judge and that Keoknk has two repre-.
sentatiyes in Judge Dan Hamilton and
II. F. Wagner.
In the Supreme Court Of the state,
old Mahaska has had two able repre-
sentatives in Judge William II. Seev-
ers who served from 1875 to 'SS and
part OF HIS time served as Chief Jist-
ice. Judge Byron w. Preston was cleo
ted in 1913 and has also served as
Chief Justice and has now been re-
elected TO another term Of service.
Associated with the Sixth District
The Oskaloosa herald. (Oskaloosa, Mahaska County, Iowa) 1885-1919, 1918-12-05

at it's pivotal point, Mahaska has good
reason to feel gratified over the rec
ord that has been made in years past
Having as We do probably the largest
bar docket in the district, we feel
naturally interested as to who serves
the district and the county in a judi
cial capaciy.
Our candidate for District Judge
Irving c. Johnson was defeated by a
small majority but as he is good judic'
ial timber he will keep for another
time. And as the new Judges Dewey
Hamilton and Wagner will on January
list assume, the duties of their office
we can but welcome, them with the
conviction that they will emulate and
encourage the record of the talented
men who have preceded them in the
exacting labors of their office.

p How To Make Flu Masks.

Take a strip of gauze or fine mesh
cloth IL or inches wide and Is inches
long. Fold in three thicknesses. Cut
two strings "a inches long, then about
five inches from the end make one
single loop. Put one corner of the
folded gauze through the loop and
draw taut. Carry the string along
the line of the gauze TO the corner on
the same side and make another sim
gle loop in the string and pull the
corner of the gauze through the loop.
and then when the right length Is Sc
cured so that the string and gauze are
Tof the same tension, darw the loop
taut Repeat this on the other side.
You now have the gauZe so secured
that the pull is on the string and not
on the gauze. If any further finish
ing is needed. the edge of the gauze
may be gently turned over the string
about tell middle and stitched The
mask is now ready to wear over the

HELPING DISABLED SOLDIERS.

The British government has made
provision for training disabled sol
diers and sailors in different lines of
work, among them being the various
branches of the printing industry, &C
cording to bulletin issued by the
International Typographical Union.
A report issued by the Ministry
of Labor contains a list of suitable
work for men partially disabled,
which includes, besides regular print
ing TYPOGRAPHY, bookbind-
ing, proving and stereotyping. The
report states that printers are need
ed, and the printing industry is scat
tered over the country so generally
that anyone learning the trade should
have little trouble securing employ
ment near his home. Physical re-
quirements are set forth as follows !:
"In genral, good eyesight and the
possession of one perfect hand is
necessary. Amputation of one leg,
or injury to legs would not be an OBJ
stacle in a certain number of pro
cesses."
The term of apprenticeship varies,
from six months to four years, with
the difficulty of the particular branch
to be learned. The first part OF the
training, taken in technical school,
fcovers from three months to one year
the balance of the training being Sc
cured in workshops.
The men are supported either who'll
lly or partially by the State during the
early part Of training, but are not in
position to secure union wages until
they have served the prescribed per
iod of apprenticeship. In order to
return these disabled soldiers and
sailors to independent wage earning
as speedily as possible, the National
Trade Advisory Committee revised
the length of apprenticeship somewhat
! for them. For instance, that men
toned as covering a period of foul
years includes the course of instruc
ton which, for an ordinary appren-
tice, covers seven, year period.
The committee which undertook
| the task of outlining this course Of
J training is made up of eleven men
/ five representatives each appointed
| by employers and operatives, anC
one appointed by the Ministry of La
Dor. The Ministry of Labor and the
/ Ministry of Pensions each sent a rep
resentative to all meetings for con
sultation, but they had not the RICH
TO vote.

IOWA INDUSTRIAL COMMISSION
Will Return Part of Its Appropriation
and Ask For More Money For
Another.

Des Moines, Dec. 3.-If Governor
w. L. Harding doesn't get the sur
prise of his life when he reads the
report of the industrial commission
of Iowa, he never will be surprised
The report of A. B. Funk, the COM
missioner, made recently, will reach
the governor this week and if the ex.
ecutive doesn't sit up and take notice
then he's incapable of approaching
the unusual. .... pes.
When the state official asks for an in.
crease in appropriations for his de-
partment, he does what is expected
of him; when he shows a financial
deficit in his department, he does the
expected again.
But-when a department head asks
the legislature for an increase in ap-
propriations-not for his own depart
ment but for another then he's doing
the unusual. When he turns back
one-third of the appropriation for his
department, he's doing the unusual
again.
That's what Funk did.
His report says that Commissioner
of Labor Urick would get results II
the labor department had a greater
appropriation. This he urges.
The financial statement included In
Commissioner Funk's report shows
that of the biennial appropriation for
his department of 100000 he will turn
back into the treasury $12,2s1.77.
For the next biennial period, he
asks an appropriation of $4,000,
which he thinks will allow for a reas-
enable expansion. Il
A summary of report of work done by
the department shows that during the
biennial period ending June 80, 1918.
4O,3S6 accidents were reported, of
which SAG were fatal. 20 , ."'' ''

He cut the Kaiser's uniform right up
