Finding Help for Harvest.

Kansas answered the call for in
creased food production. Kansas plant
ed more wheat. Kansas knew, Of
course, that q tremendous amount Of
man power would be required to har-
vest that crop. But Kansas wasn't dis
mayed. Uncle Sam called for o
wheat. Kansas planted more wheat.
Kansas knew that wheat would be har-
vested and that people in the towns
and cities would go to the fields to
help do It!
And that is precisely how it is being
harvested-by people from the towns
and cities Of Kansas. A literal exc
dus Of all the urban people hasn't been
necessary, Of course. But all that were
needed went-and more were ready II
needed.
The statewide campaign for town
volunteers for farm labor service dur
ing the harvest was launched at a Kan
sas City conference the latter part Of
May. Representatives Of the United
States department CT agriculture re-
minded all the cooperating agencies
at that conference Of the policy that
department has been urging since the
beginning of the war-the use of town
man power for local farm labor needs
during seasonal emergencies.

MOTOR TRUCK TO
TRANSPORT eggs
Producers Find Experiment So
Satisfactory That They Will
Extend Service.
QUICK DELIVERY IS result
Fruits, Vegetables and Other Products
in Season to Be carried-Mer
chandise Is Hauled by Trucks
on Return Trips.

Last year producers Of eggs near
Vineland and Millville, New Jersey,
had difficulties getting their eggs to
dealers in New York City. This year,
however, they travel direct by motor
truck to the Dealers doors and arrive
in less time and with less loss from
breakage than in other seasons.
This community Of producers has
found the results of their experiment
Of shipping eggs by motor truck so
successful that they arc planning to
extend their efforts to cover fruits and
vegetables, poultry, and other products
in season.
Eggs by Motor Truck.
Following a season In which trans
portation troubles made shipments to
New York City unsatisfactory the
farmers sought assistance from the
bureau of markets Of the United States
department of agriculture, and spe-
cialists On motor-truck marketing made
a survey Of the situation. This was
followed by a group of producers agree
ing to ship their eggs by motor truck
and to bring the cases to designated
places along the route the truck was
to cover. A large commercial motor
truck company, operating a fleet Of
trucks between New York and Phila-
delphia, was interested ard agreed to
make a detour on their trips to New
York, to which city their trucks had
often travelled without being loaded,
to take in Vineland and Millville. Lo-
cal farmers and merchants in these
two towns agreed to give their hauling
business from Philadelphia to the truck
company and thus insure q full load
for the trucks all the way from Phila-
delphia to New York.
Capacity of'Trucks.
The trucks have a capacity Of about
five tons, and can take 200 crates of
eggs. On the first trip only $50 cases
were ready at the roadside and the bal
ance Of the load was made up Of Grated
glass from Vineland and Millville. This
first load went the 40 miles in the
record time Of Is hours with not an
egg broken on the way. The truck
went across on the ferry boat from the
New Jersey shore. and the eggs were
delivered on the sidewalks in front
Of the wholesale houses. On the re-
turn trip the truck hauled merchandise
from New York direct to Philadelphia.
Some Of the dealers in New York
City are offering a premium Of from
one-half to one and one.half cents a
dozen for eggs shipped by motor
truck from Vineland and Millville, be-
cause the eggs arrive In better condi-
ton and in quicker time than when
shipped by rail. This premium alone
more than covers the difference in cost
Of shipping by motor truck and by rail,
and, In addition to the time saved, the
motor-truck service is more dependable
and gives better delivery. The eggs.
as yet, ara not pooled, but consist Of
individual shipments to a number Of
dealers.

TRAIN FOR HARD WORK
Is there a physical training

Is there a physical training
class in your town?
If not, this is q good time to
start one-a physical training
class to harden the soft muscles
Of town and city men, so they
can go to farms and do effective
work during emergency needs
for farm labor in their counties
and communities.
Kansas City started a "loyal
physical fitness class" some
weeks before the time for the

all over the state. In many
towns and cities similar classes
were organized, and men made
themselves fit for the hard work
they were to undertake in the

them would have been forced to
drop out altogether, If they had
not been prepared for the physi-

Uncle Sam needs the help of
every loyal American citizen.
Either work or fight! You can't
do your best work, either at
your present Job or at any other
job, or in the fields temporarily
as a farm volunteer, unless you
are physically fit.
A few weeks work in q physl-
cal training class will "harden"

to accomplish something in the

GAS IN THE ESTOMACH
IS DANGEROUS
Recommends Daily Use of Magnesia to
Overcome Trouble. Caused by
Fermenting Food and Acid
Indigestion

Gas and wind in the stomach ac-
companed by that full, bloated feel
ing after eating are almost certain
evidence of the presence of excessive
hydrochloric acid in the stomach,
creating so-called "acid indigestion"
Acid stomachs are dangerous be-
cause too much acid irritates the
delicate lining of the stomach, often
leading to gastritis accompanied by
serious stomach ulcers. Food fer
ments and sours, creating the dis
tressing gas which distends the stom-
ach and hampers the normal func-
tions of the vital internal organs,
often affecting the heart.
1t is the worst of folly to neglect
such a serious condition or to treat
with ordinary digestive aids which
have no neutraliZing effect on the
stomach acids. Instead get from
G. A. Gorgas, or any druggist, a few
ounces of Bisurated Magnesia and
take a teaspoonful in quarter glass
of water right after eating. This
will drive the gas. wind and bloat
right out of the body, sweeten the
stomach, neutralize the excess acid
and prevent it's formation and there
is no sourness or pain. Bisurated
Magnesia Gin powder or tablet form
never liquid or milky is harmless to
the stomach, inexpensive to take and
tho best form of magnesia for stom-
ach purposes. 1t is used by thousands
of people who enjoy their meals with
no more fear of digestion.-Adver-
tisement.

Girls Taught to Swim
at Age of Three

San Francisco California girls
in recent years have become ma
tionally known, not only as eXcelling
in the various prescribed racing dis
tances in the water, but for endur-
ance feats of one sort or another.
such as swimming across the Golden
Gate or around the Seal Rocks. The
reason for their proficiency is in part
explained by the fact that they are
taken in hand when young and prop
erly coached. This system also has
been found to work splendidly in the
matter of producing California S
tennis players.
The question may ne asked: Just
what is the right age to begin to
learn how to swim? One answer is
given by Miss Mildred Pollak. MIS-
Pollak is an expert swimmer and an
enthusiast over this form of sport.
So much so that she has organized
class of youngsters to whom she
teaches the art for nothing. There
are about 200 of these would be
young mermen and mermaids, and
the youngest of them rs Just three
years old. The oldest is fourteen.
A comfortable but inexpensive club
house has been built for the children
at the edge of the bay, which in
cludes not only the bathrooms, but a
regular clubroom where the chill
dren will find material of various
kinds to amuse them during the va
cation season. Miss Pollak's only
reward is in the healthful useful re-
creation which she is able to afford
the youngsters.
