To the farm bureau committee that "a

feeds. The committee appointed to
bring this matter To the attention of the

Kansas Farm Bureaus Resolve to De-
termine Production Costs

At n recent conference of farm hui
reaus In Kansas the following resolu-
tion was adpted:
Resolved. That we. the farm bureau,
officers aud county commissioners AS
Sembled In conference. do believe that
the farm bureaus Of the state and the
United States should actively inveSti-
gate the cost Of production Of the va
rious agricultural products and that
with this information they take active
steps To represent their interests IN the
Interpretation Of the law of supply and
demand. with due consideration Of cost
Of production. We urge that all farm
bureaus In the United States cooperate
with other farmers organizations along
this line In representing the farmers
interests for his protection"
We wish to give our hearty support
to this move Of the Kansas farm bu-
reaus. II seems To us us mark of
special intelligence when a farmer Il
able to give an honest and accurate ac-
count cost Of production Of any of his
crops. OF course. Ia many farmers
this will appear as an utter impossi-
bility owing to their ,usy life. But LET
us ask what business does succeed I'M
less some method of accounting Is
adoptcd% The accounting system is
a part Of the coSt Of running the job
and il Is only wien the farmer knows
all Of the costs that he can put IN
Intelligent selling price on his goods.
and when all farmers cooperate
through the farm bureaus they wiz he
able to demand for their produces n
price that win leave some profit.

GENERAL PERSHING
 COULD BE STUBBORN

There was no doubt of Pershing's stubbornness on occasion. am told that Clemenceau said that he was the stubbornest man that he had ever met, and 1 should say that Clernenceau is stubborn enough to know stubborn man when he meets one.
 When the men of our First Division had been training for some time the allies began to demand that they should go into the trenches. The for maj spilling of some American blood would be proof to all the world that the United States was not "too proud to fight" It would inspirit allied mo- rale, including that at home, where people were beginning to wonder a little why we were not fighting. All propagandists were for it; but Persh- ing set his chin against it.
 He was not going to have any false starts for show purposes. He was training that division in keeping with his big plan, which included the mak- ing of big army. A few thousand men in the front line would not change allied fortunes at that moment. If the allied line were in danger--which it was not, as the Germans were under taking no offensive-he would put in everything he had, as he did against the German offensives of 1918 when he had his organization in a position to be effective. He would keep on blowing and narrowing and sowing against the harvest, this canny son of Missouri.

HELP THOSE WHO MEYER
 FAILED THE SOLDIER BOYS

The Salvation Army, it's workers re turning from glorious service ir France, turns for aid to meet the new problems of reconstruction which con. front the American people.
 Beginning May 26, the Salvation Army will wage a campaign in every section of the state, in city and town village and hamlet, throughout the rural communities, for funds. Hun dreds of non-members of the organi- zation have volunteered their serv- ices to help the army and it's gallant workers to carry the message to the public. The campaign is not to be only Salvation Army campaign in the sense in which the army was un- derstood before the great war, but a campaign of all the people, all sects, and creeds, and classes, uniting to per petuate a great organization in a great work.
 Over there in France the Salvation Army loomed as one of the largest units of worthwhile war work enter ing upon the fighting field. Many are the stories returning soldiers love to tell of deeds of self-sacrifice, of mis- sions of mercy, of dangers scorned and hardships endured by the Salva- tion army lassies and men who, al though they had comparatively little to work with performed service for the allied fighting men, particularly the Americans that won the admira- ton and the praise of all the nations pitted against the Huns. Salvation Army girls went to the front lines, slept along the side of roads in Mo- Man's-Land, were wounded, went on, and on, refusing to let difficulties and privation and danger of death stop them while they ministered to the wounded, served the well with dainties and thus gave the fighting men that tender touch and ministration that was to them the vicarious touch of Mother.
 The story, or part of it, has been told often since the United States en- tered the war; 1t has been sung in the sagas of the soldiers. The heads of governments, and the leaders of the armies took cognizance of the magnificent work, and praised it, and aided it all in their power. Now the war is ended. Peace has come, and the Salvation Army, proven through wars necessities to be an efficient, compact, hard-working organization, with vision of service capable of actual realization, faces new labor-a labor of love that has in it the de- sire to aid the people at home, and to continue their care of the soldier boys who are returning to meet new problems and new conditions.
 These boys will need a helping hand. They trust the Salvation Army which extended the helping hand over there when it was direly needed. And with the funds the generous citizenship of

Arizona will provide, new institutions are to be built in the state--Salvation Army citidels-lighthouses, as it were, that will send forth steady beams of light to pierce the darkness of unrest, and sin, and misunderstanding, and human misery. The Salvation Army will extend it's work and broaden it's fields of endeavor. Its workers are trained, were trained, though the pub lie was not generally aware of it be- fore they went into war service. That training helped greatly to make bril-. liant record of achievement in France. On such training real efficiency rests. And the people of Arizona and of the nation, have come to realize that to that training and unselfish desire to do good in the world, they can trust the mighty work of aiding the state to solve the gigantic problems of re- construction now confronting us.

RUNAWAY BOYS RETURNED

Boys who run away from home often do so from love of adventure, and soon get tired of life among strangers. During the last twelve months, more than 300 runaway boys of this description have been sent back to their homes by the Brace Memorial Newsboys Home of New York City. They came mostly from the nearby states; but some had wandered from Florida, Texas, Oregon, and even as far off at British Columbia.

THE PRESIDENTS PLEDGE

Remember" says Marshal Foch, ! that those seventy million Germans will always be menace to us. They are an invidious and warlike people. Their characteristics are not changed. Fifty years hence they will be what they are today. Do not trust the ap- pearance of the moment"
 Lamentably, history only too con vincingly justifies that pessimistic fear in the hearts of Frenchmen, Napoleon once had Prussia beaten, disarmed, humiliated and discouraged But that same Prussia helped to crush him at Waterloo. That same Prussia defeated France in 1870. That same Prussia constructed the mightiest mil itary machine the world has ever known and forced this terrific war upon an unwilling and peace-loving world. Prussia, defeated and seem ingly crushed, has come back again and again.
 So Foch wants Ffance to stay on the Rhine, but President Wilson is un- willing to approve peace terms that will give France foothold in the val ley of the Rhine. As an alternative he has proposed something that now seems satisfactory to Clemenceau. Rumor has it that that something is a pledge that the United States will go to the defense of France should France be attacked by Germany. But Clemenceau must know that a president of the United States can not, under our constitution, deliver any such guarantee. The men who framed that constitution placed barriers in it that prohibit any president from con- hitting this country to offensive or defensive alliances of any kind. The president proposes. but the senate, in some cases, and Congress in others, disposes.

ECHOES FROM THE FRONT

Artillerymen boast of their guns continually. Their own particular bat teries are always the best, with the greatest gunners, the greatest guns, and the most wonderful shooting.
