Killed.

Mrs. Frank Turner of this city
received telegram early Tuesday
morning, announcing the death Of
Aer youngest brother, Cleve Cochran,
who was accidentally killed in
Kansas City on the previous day.
No details have as yet been re-
ceived, but Mrs. Turner has wired
he chief of police there to investi-
gate the case and make report to
her at once.
Mr.. Cochran's parents, Mr.. and
Mrs. Sam Cochran of Monument,
have wired for the body to be sent
here, and the understanding now is
that it will be tken by Mr.. and Mrs.
Turner to Monument for burial,
where Mr.. and Mrs. Cochran have
several other children buried.
Cleve was the youngest living
child of five of Mr.. and Mrs. Cochran,
these being three sisters and one
brother. His death has come as a
very severe shock to his parents and
they have the sympathy of their
.arge circle of friends In this sad
bereavement.
1t will be several days yet before

City.

WHY WOOL is SCARCE.

The Army and Navy monopolize
the wool market. Orders for our
soldiers and sailors not only require
every high grade pound produced in
the United States, but compel the
of our precious ships to
bring in more. Civilian require
ments depend and must depend for
q considerable time to come upon
the shoddy and rejected stocks that
fall below the army and navy re-
quirements.
During recent years We have shorn
about S5,000,000 sheep annually,
and the pulled wool taken from
sheep and lambs slaughtered for
meat brings the total clip up to the
equivalent of about 100000
fieeces. If all of this were suitable
f,r military use, which unfortunately
is not true, it would be enough for
only one half Of the 100000 men
we Will have under arms.

MORROW COUNTY OFFICIAL PAPER

N in the history of the world
has ere been so spectacular an
exa Of the supreme Importance
of 4.e as is now being presented
OIL gestern front. The forces
thu front each other are not
wida dissimilar in number or
ec at Yet one army is con
sta. withdrawing and the other
irrls.s aoly moving forward. The
di-o 4ue is spelled in the single
We lCrale.
nat the Liberty Loan is over
ths- j, just one more task for Tie
AM .,1n people-to provide the
CON. It's of life for American boys
thl u il the United War Work Cam
paigA, which has for the purpose OF
rais- iunds, amalgamated the seven
or5a4iza ions doing welfare work for
the soldiers and sailors-the Y. M.
C. A., Y. w. C. A., X. of c., War
Camp Community Service, Jewish
Welfare Board, American Library
ASS cation and Salvation Army.
1t is the service rendered by these
organizations that makes for lae
sple4a.i morale of the American
armies. General Pershing in a
recent letter commenting ON the work
of these agencies quoted with ap-
proyal the statement of one Of his
colonels who said Give me nine men
who have a hut to spend their even
ings in and will have better fight
ing force than ten men would be
without it,"
DR.. John R. Mott, director gneeral
of the United War Work Campaign
says, If it is worth twenty-four
billion dollars to keep our boys
under arms next year surely 1t is
worth hundred and seventy million
and more to add ten per cent to their
fighting edge to bring victory ten per
cent nearer. This is the appeal Of
the seven united war work agencies
to America and particularly to those
four million homes where service
flags fly.
Viewed as a total sum, $11U,-
100000 seems gigantic, but divide it
by the four million men who will be
under arms in our army and navy
during the period it is expected to
cover and it means less than fifteen
cents day per man.
Surely there is no father or
mother or friend of a soldier in this
great country who will say that
fifteen cents day is too much to
spend on his church, his home, his
library, his theater, and his club
over there"
The United War Work Campaign
is being made at the request of
President Wilson.
The state quotas in the west are as
follQws.

STATEMENT OF THE
OFFICE OF THE COUNTY AGRI-
CULTURAL AGENT FOR NOR
ROW COUNTY NOV. 1, 1918.

In making an estimate of the re-
turns from the work of the county
there are many items that do not
permit an estimate of the actual re-
turns from a financial standpoint.
Some lines of work have shown, how
ever, a definite financial gain to the
farmers of the county and for that
reason we have tried to make as
conservative an estimate as possible
from the facts in our office. If there
S any question regarding any such
estimates we will be glad to submit
detailed figures showing the source
cf gain.
Labor.
A careful canvass of the
harvest labor situation
and comparison with other
counties show the follow
ing results:
Through the organized
efforts of the farmers, led
by the county agent, har-
est elp cost the farmers
# the county an average
Of S1.00 per man per day
less than in other cousties.
IN the basis of the men
Employed and the number
of days of harvest the net
profit is------------$11,2O0.OO 90
Bulk Handling.
AS a result of the cam
aign put on to encourage
the building of farm
storage the farmers were
saved the expense of high
priced sacks. In. some
cases coming to the atten-
sion of the county agent
the entire cost of equiping
for bulk handling did not
equal the annual sack bill.
A net saving on handling
22,500 bu. of five cents per
bu. equals ls----- 1,225. .00
Improved Seed.
Through the efforts of
the county agent 3056 bu.
of good seed were shipped
in and gave an average in
crease of 1876 BIZ. per acre
of total Of 1859 bu. more
than would have been pro-
duced if ordinary seed had
been used. Disregarding
the increase in grade OBJ
tanned in most cases the
net gain is----------- 12.O56.30
Spring Narrowing.
On one form where the
county agent advised
against spring narrowing
an accurate check later
proved a saving of 2.59
bu. per acre or total of
AIS bu. valued at------- S46.6(
Fertilizers.
I Increased yield due to
use of fertilizers on two
acres of lfalfa--------- 9.6'
Total $25,622.5'
Cost to the county 10000
Net profit $24,122.5'

Although Federal agents are con-
