AN APPEAL FOR FARMERS
TO TAKE AND TRAIN BOYS.

/ BY c. +. Carmack, Louisville. Ny.
The time has come when we cannot
be choosers but must take the best
we can get. This principal applies
practically TO all classes Of people to-
day, owing to conditions brought on
by the World War. OF all classes Of
people that are hardest hit by these
conditions is the employer Of labor.
whether he be manufacturer. a
merchant or farmer.
The farmer. no less than the en-
ployer Of labor in the city, has felt
the drain Of labor owing to the war
The active young men upon whom
chiefly the farm work falls must be
replaced by some one il production
Of food stuffs and meats is kept up
to the normal Of past years. But
the demand is for more food so we
can help supply the other nations who
are helping US to make the world safe
for democracy.
There are 100000 High School
boys in this country. Several thous-
and Of these are IN our own State
and have enrolled in the U. s. Boys
Working Reserve. These boys are
willing and anxious TO do their bit
in helping to serve their country.
Thousands and thousands Of these
boys have already pledged themselves
to go TO any farm where they may
be sent and will do their best to aid
the farmer. In other States calls
from the farmers for boys have been
greater than the supply.
A few Of these High School boys
have had farm experience. but the
majority Of them have never been on
farm and consequently do not
know the first principles Of farming.
However, they declare they are will
ing to learn. They say they expect
sore hands, tired muscles and hot.
long days when they get to the farms,
but are "nerved" to do their bit.
II the boys recognize that il is not
play but hard work that they are
undertaking and yet are willing to 20,
the farmer should be willing to take
them and try them out. Further,
the farmer should not expect too
much from the boys, but should I'M
dertake TO teach them how to work,
with the idea Of making them useful
helpers not merely for this year but
for the years to come.
They must realize the longer the
war lasts the less farm help they
can get, because Uncle Sam must
have soldiers, and, therefore, il is
the farmers patriotic duty 10 take
these boys and make farmers out Of
them. BE PATIENT WITH THEM.
TEACH THEM, NOT ONLY FOR
WHAT CAN BE GOTTEN OUT OF
THEM THIS SEASON BUT TO
MAKE THEM WORTH MORE ON
THE FARM NEXT YEAR AND THE
NEXT. II the farmers will be pa
tient and not expect too much from
the boys this year they will have a
similar experience that the States Of
Indiana and Illinois are having this
year.-want more boys than they can
get. BE PATIENT WITH THE
B0YSl
Make your needs for these boys

! Address.

/ Into Holland.

. One of the most interesting address
q heard in Grand Forks lately was
that of Private John Scott at the Met
fopolitan theater yesterday afternoon,
when he told Of his experiences while
4 prisoner of wal in Germany. His
story, from the time he was first
wounded, until he finally escaped from
the German prison, rivals the plot OF
the most fascinating novel. Mr.. Scott
y a man of ordinary height, with
ciean-cut features and q strong, reso-
pant voice.
G. F. Ely. president of Labor's 10y
d Legion, under whose auspices the
meeting was held. opened the pro-
gram by asking the audience to salute
the flag after which they sang the
..,Star Spangled Banner" Basso's
orchestra rendered a patriotic medley.
and E. A. Montgomery sang Keep the
Home Fires Burning" both numbers
drawing much applause and calling
forth an encore.
> Chairman Ely then presented the
speaker. Private John Scott, of the

First Gas Attack.
Private Scott. left out all prelimin-
aries Of his enlistment, and first fight,
and began his story with the first gas
attack, which occurred while he was
At the Ypres salient. His description
d the attack was very vivid:

April "a, 1915. I was on sentry duty

Il say q lot Of bits Of paper all the air.
The pieces grew, more came, and soon
the few stray pieces formed q dense
cloud. It began to move toward our
lines, slowly but surely. The cloud
rolled on, until it finally hit us. Thus
the Germans launched the first a at
tack.
Scott then told how he took his
scarf from his neck and wrapped 1t
around his face, thereby saving him
self to some extent from the fumes
OF the deadly chlorine gas. Some Of
his comrades had no scarfs, others
took no heed to the o%nrushing cloud,
and soon the gas took effect. Men
choked thickly, and dropped to the
ground unconscious. The picture that
was painted of the attack was CHASTITY
indeed. men were blown up before
my eyes," MI. Scott said, "arms. legs
and pieces OF limbs we're everywhere
after the Germans began their artil-
pools Of blood" Scott, then told how.
in the very face Of such enc and
the whitening heavy gunfire of the
Huns, the latter were driven back,
time after time.
Struck by Shell.
Scott said that he didn't feel the

within ten feet of him. One piece of
shrapnel hit him in the chest. another
in the head, still another in the arm.
and one more in the mouth. The
corporal, seeing his plight, bound him
up as best he could and sent him back
to the first hospital. His story Of the
trip back to the hospital through the
communication trench was one of
horrors. After four hours he finally
reached a farm house, exhausted, and
was carried to the cellar by the
sergeant. Here he stayed all day with
out food or water, with some sixty
others.
BY this time the British line had
been pushed back. and the house was
in No Mans Land. Finally the British
were forced back, until the house was
in the hands of the Boches. One of
these opened a ventilator of the base
ment and fired three shots through it.
The first one of these hit Scott in the
arm. totally disabling him.
After being sent with several others,
among them many Frenchmen. to
Westphalia in a freight car. he was
treated at a. hospital by a DR.. Gold
berg. The cruelties inflicted on the in
mates were terrible. The doctor OPP
Grated on him. taking u several bull
lets, without the use Of any anaesthet-
ic. On July l., he was sen to prison
No. 3. Here he had the first taste of
prison food, one bowl Of soup. two
cups of dirty coffee made of ground
acorns and one-half pound of black
bread being all that they were allow
ed each day. Here too he saw his first
glimpse of German kultur. Some
civilians who had refused to work had
been made to stand on the roofs of
cottages which were covered with tar.
