TRAINING FOR VETERANS.

Washington, D. c., March 4.-Not
every man who has bee nwounded or
has suffered disability from sickness,
accident or disease is entitled to the
free trade, agricultural and CONNER
cial training which the government
furnishes. The law under which this
training is given provides, as a pre-
requisite, that the man shall be eth
er eligible for or a recipient of COM
pensation from the war risk bureau.
In other words, if he has not been
injured sufficiently to be in receipt
of compensation, the government as
sumes that he will have no difficulty
in resuming his former occupation,
and does not need this specialized re-
education.
For those who are eligible for COM
pensation, the government will allow
a support fund of S65 per month, if the
man is single, $75 if he is married
and lives with his wife while taking
training, and with an allowance of
$40 for each child up to three. The
training is given in the very best ed
ucational and chronological i%nstitu-
tions of the United States, absolutely
without cost to the man, every eX-
pense being born by the government.
There is no time limit set for the
completion of the course. The sole
object is to make a first class pro-
ficient man in what he has undertake
en-. Some of this instruction is given
directly in various works and factor
les. When he has qualified, he is
placed in a position which has been
obtained for him, and there he is kept
under supervision until it is demon
strated that he can "carry on" under
commercial conditions. When he goes
on the payroll, and usually at wages
far in excess of what he has ever
earned MISUNDERSTANDING that
he may be badly handicapped phys
ically-his compensation then begins
from the war risk and supplements
his earnings.
This work is in charge of the fed
eral board for vocational education
at Washington, and the board is es.
pecially DESTROYS of getting in touch
with disabled men who have either ia
ken on semi-charity jobs, or who have
endeavored to enter into some othe1
line of occupation and have foune
their handicaps a serious detriment.
Inquiries are welcomed, and infor

GAS FROM STRAW.

A Canadian inventor has worked out
a new device for converting straw into
gas, the straw being placed in a re-
tort which is heated for 80 or 40 min
utes by burning straw " gas under
it. A ton of straw is said to yield
about $4,000 cubic feet of gas, six or
eight gallons of tar and about $40
pounds of carbon. The invention is
intended particularly for use IN farms
where there are large quantities of
straw, a by-product of wheat, oats,
rye and barley growing.

RED CROSS NEWS

Following an experiment at a few
Atlantice coast points with a canteen
escort service for sick and wounded
soldiers, sailors, and marines travel
ing from debarkation ports to inter-
ior hospitals, the American Red Cross
has regularly established this escort
service on all routes where it will be
of practical value. This new service
on hospital or special trains is merely
supplemental to that rendered by the
army.
Through an arrangement with the
army medical authorities the Red
Cross is kept in touch with the move
ment of hospital trains. Two motherly
women are provided for each train
during the daylight hours by the Red
Cross divisions through which the
train passes, n pair of workers TAX
ing up the service where the other
leaves off.
These women representing the es-
cort service are not nurses, although
proficient in first-aid, home dietetics,
and home nursing. Their duty is to
provide cheer, comfort and companion
ship for the men and to assist the
medical officers in every manner pos.
sible.
If a commanding officer Of a train
wishes to avail himself of Red Cross
canteens en- route, the escort is able
to advise which units along the line
of train are best equipped and the
meals are ordered in advance over
the railroad wires. Special delica.
cies, such as oyster stew, custards
wine, jellies and other invalid fare
are in great demand by the sick OF
wounded soldiers and are promptly
provided by the Red Cross. If the
officer has a kitchen car and wants
to replenish his supplies, the escor
y. can aid by wiring ahead to a Rec
Cross canteen to purchase the partic
ular necessities and have them read.
to stock the train when it reaches
canteen point.
The women in this service carr,

"Will my house be as big as that? ?"
The same question, over and over
again. "Will my house be as big as
that?" This time it was the court
house she pointed out.
She was the little daughter of a
soldier in France. For four years she
had not walked. In the country town
where she lived, she was looked upon
as a hopeless cripple. But n Of the
field representatives of the northern
division home service section heard of
the case. Because she was a soldiers
daughter the home service became in
terested in her. So little Janet was
brought to division headquarters in
Minneapolis. A famous bone special
list will make her walk again. All the
way through the city she was eagerly
asking, evil my house be as big as
that? Will it?"
Her house was a big one-almost as
big as she had expected. 1t is the
hospital that will be home to Janet:
for a year perhaps. And all through
that time the Red Cross home service
will look after her. They are her
real friends.

Helpful Suggestions for Farmer
in Solving Labor Problem
During Busy Season.
KEEP MACHINES IN REPAIR

Ter and Last Longer-Crew at

Bale More Hay in Field.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment OF Agriculturep
Better working methods hat will
mean more work accomplished by the
same force of workers in harvesting
hay will help the hay grower in solving
the farm labor problem during a busy
season. Following are a few labor
may be found useful:
Keep Mowers in Repair.-Mowers
should be kept in good repair, especial
ly if operated by laborers or others
who know very littlesabout machinery.
The most important thing is to see that
the cutter bar is lined up properly in
order to prevent breaking knife bars.
1t is a good practice to start moving
In the morning with two sharp knives,
the extra one TO be used in the after
noon or to replace a broken knife.
Mowers should be oiled often, as oil
makes the machine run easier and
last longer.
Use Water Bottle to Clean Cutter
6ar.-In some parts of the South the
mower is not started until after the
dew is off on account of trouble caused
by mud ~clogging the knife. This mud
is caused by the dirt from crawtish
chimneys mixing with the dew from
the hay. After the dew is off the dry
dirt does not do much damage. While
he dew is on. q mower can be run
