Implement Men Warned to Get Ready
For II.
ASSOCIATED Pressl

Kansas City, Jan. LITTLE theme
Of power farming, heretofore touch
ed only lightly in the sessions OF the
Western Retail Implement and Hard
ware Dealers Association, will be
given much consideration at the an
nual convention of the organization
which opened today with 1000 deal
ers present.
This convention will mark an
epoch in the activities Of the associa-
ton" H. j. Hodge, secretary, said.
1.-The war has given us demonstration
of the utility Of tractor propulsion
which would have taken many years
TO obtain otherwise. Tractor propul-
sion is established and we must con-
form to the lesson the circumstance
has given us"
The Standardization Of implements
is another phase Of the agricultural
industry for which the association
will go on record, Mr. Hodge said, de-
claring the elimination of waste from
the factory, throughout the life of the
implement, its final resting place In
the junk heap, marked the present
program of manufacturing a multi
plicity of types and styles of i'm
Elements as an economic absurdity"
Gov. Allen of Kansas will speak

Planes We're Missing.

"And when other scandals are IN
vestigated," the governor said, Il
hope they won't forget the scandal
of the horse.
1.-THE result was. the infantry was
compelled to fight the German ar
tillery and the German machine guns.
Where were the airplanes? | don't
know. The general concession of the
English and French were that there
were no better air men than the
Americans. But we could not have
air service without planes. When
the 1000 planes that we had were
divided into their various classitica-
lions such as day bombers, night
bombers and the like there was not
enough of one type to be Of much
assistance. There was domination OF
the air on the English and French
fronts. but on the American front
the Germans had domination OF the
front.
"The Germans held the air and OBJ
servation so that when we went up
the fight was unequal. The French
did not regard the battle of Argonne
woods as successful because OF such
great loss. If the French had been
compelled to fight with such lossess
there would have been no French
army at the close of the first year of
the war. Our soldiers were fighting
with less machinery than the soldiers
of China whould have had had they
been there.

Meeting Labor Demand.

Although the largest acreage on
record was planted in 1918 by Ameri-
can farmers. the great crops of the
year We're harvested under difficulties
not appreciably greater than those in
rernal times, says the annual report
Of the secretary of agriculture.
'Thc department of agriculture con
tinued throughout the year to give
earnest attention tO~the securing and
mobilization of an adequate supply OF
farm labor the report states. at

toned in eacn state in the spring OF
1917, and perfected its own organiza.
tion. enlistinS the more active co.
operation of the county agents and
other extension workers.
st more fully co-ordinated its activ-
tiles with the department of labor, Il
representative of the department of
agriculture haying been designated II
member of the war labor policies
board which was created by the presi-
dent. 1t has also aided the war de-
partment in connection with the clas-
sitication of agricultural registrants.
Special efforts We're made, beginning
early in the year, to impress upon the
residents of urban communities the
necessity of aiding farmers in the
planting and harvesting of their crops,
"The response to appeals along this
line was generous. In Kansas, for ex-
ample. where the situation was espe-
cinIly difficult the rpDOrtS indicate
that more than $4,000 workers were
supplied to farmers to assist in the
wheat harvest. The potato crop in
two counties in Texas was saved
through the aid of the business men in
the local communities, and in Illinois
$4,000 workers were registered FOR
harvest work"
Many other examples could be cited,
the secretary says.

Specializing Often Wins.

Many persons do not market by pvi-
eel post because they do not have
large variety of produce or because
their supply is available only part OF
the year. While it is true that con-
tinuous supply of number of products
is more satisfactory to customers, such
supply is not absolutely necessary
in order to establish parcel posi-
trade.
Many persons have secured custom
ers by specializing in one or two KINDS
of produce, such as butter, or eggs
which can be supplied during the en-
tire year, and then these customers
have offered an outlet for other com
modities which can be furnished only
occasionally or for produce which IL
rarely to be had in city markets. Id
most of these cases 1t was necessary
only to send n letter or card to satis.
fled regular customers asking them II
they wished to obtain certain kinds Oh
produce that were. for sale at tha'
time.
Such letters tend to keep up per
sonal relationship between the pro
ducer and his customers which makes
1t easier to keep up business relations

ing brush or rubbish, where in most
cases water is pot available, an or.
ganized neighborhood fire company
equipped with IL chemical cart would
be of the greatest utility.
The office of farm management of
the United States department of agri-
culture has for-some time urged the
use of chemical apparatus as more
effective than water against fires on
the farm. especially where kerosene,
gasoline or other oil is involved and
as an Indispensable reinforcement to
the use of water in all cases. That is
secured in the California plan together
with an even more effective thing, the
organization of the men of the com.
munity in such way that they eau
make their efforts almost Immediately
effective against any fire.
