There Is much talk all ovor the
country Of the elites furnishing

scryation In some places the
chambers Of commerce are carrying
on a campaign 10 enlist recruits for
the harvest fields, 80 that nothing

Many clty-bred men have expressed
the Willingness to engage in this
work. ana there is no doubt that
the spirit is general that people OF
other occupations will volunteer
for n spell IN agricultural pursuits.
There are two things TO consider
In this respect that perhaps many
have failed TO take into account,
Tho first iH that sedentary workers
are apt to be physically unfit, evon
though robust, to tackle the condl-
tons thnt maintain IN the harvest
flold. And tho other hinges upon
this, and that Is that tho farmers
must have tho help OF men who can
really be OF assistance. and not
weakllnRs who will bo more trouble
than benefit. Before the soldiers of
Uncle sam are put into strenuous
places, they are given a course Of
training calculated TO harden them
for their work. It In kind OF mag

effective for physical betterment
Many physical woakllng has been
metamorphoscd Into strong man

,,enabled to give n good account OF

Likewise It will be good idea for
the prospective harvest hands to
prepare for their duties, else they
may fail their employer at q critical
tim6.
Gymnaslums arc good as far as
they go, but the best preparation Is
for the man 20 get out into the open
