COUNTRY FOR PROFITS

We have been talking long time about stop
ping the flow of the people from the country to
the city. Possibly high prices for food may
cause reversal of the tide of movement and
city people will seek the country for it's profits
as heretofore country people have sought the
city for the exceptional and spectacular profits
and the luxurious life that the cities offer.
Urging people to rush heedlessly to the coun-
try without training or equipment for farming,
mere drudgery although it requires much hard
however, is serious business. Farming is not
labor, but it involves all of the animal and plant
sciences. Indeed, it is the process of recreation,
so to speak, because it takes the dull and inert
substance of the earth and converts them into
things of use and beauty. It is an art, voca-
ton and an industry, and it is not to be learned
in day or week. It does not offer the hope
of very great fortune or of quick riches, but it
does offer to the industrious, the intelligent, the
patient, a happy and wholesome mode of life.

WASTE AND WEEDS

All through the we've been told to save
the little things-the peach stones and the
cherry pits and the old scraps of rubber and
iron and table leavings and so on. We've been
told to save food by utilizing weeds as substi-
|tutes-as pigweed greens, for example.
Now that the is ended in phase, this
type of counsel is likely to vanish from among
us. And it's pity too. For if we don't eat
or otherwise use up our abundant weed crop it
will go on causing us no end of economic waste
in destroying soil fertility and food-crop hind
rance
Weeds might be made into paper if some
scientist to take time to deal with the
problem of ways and means. And in that event
there'd never be another paper shortage For
the weed is omnipresent, ever with us, an offense
to the eye and the mind.

Washington, JAN 6.-Substantiaf
evidence OF the expension Of the war
organization behind the actual fight
ing forces is found in the fact that
the number of mechanics, 1aborers
and other civilian employees at navy
yards and naval stations in the United
States increased from about 10000 to
more than 100000 during the nineteen
months of Americas participation In
the conflict. This civilian force was
recruited through the machinery OF
the United States Civil Service Com
mission. In his annual report recent
y issued, the secretary OF the navy
paid the following tribute to the eff
ftcacy of the civil service system:
Under the law all navy yard work.
men must be recruited through the
civil service, and the department de-
sires to express it's qualification and
appreciation Of the manner in which
the civil service commission met the
emergency and by the creation of az
most new organization and the fear
less cutting of all needless red tape
has done all that was humanity pos
sible to meet the navy's demands in
shortest practical time"
AS soon as war was declared Tse
civil service commission made an ar
rangement with the navy department
to instruct the responsible officers at
navy yards and naval stations to
make daily report to the department
by telegraph of their respective needs
The Geographic reports from the sew
eral sources were collected in the
navy department and transmitted
daily to the civil service commission.
The commission, in turn, each week,
or more frequently when necessary,
mailed a compilation of these speci-
fled needs to each OF its three thou
sand district and local boards. All
these representatives were instructed
to use every proper effort to locate
men with the qualifications desired
who were willing and able to accept
government employment. The dis
trict and local boards disseminated the
information by sending notices to To-
cal newspapers. by enlisting the aid
of local trade unions and by directly
approaching individuals when there
was opportunity for personal inter-
view.
In all this effort, however, care was
exercised to avoid undue interference
with the work of private plants.
The American Federation of Labor
also rendered assistance of the great
est value in the work of securing
skilled labor.

The agricultural possibilities of this county were

But possibilities do not amount to anything

TRENCH INVENTIVENESS

A French inventor, NJ. Champagne has just
constructed apparatus, which includes a
motor and an air compressor mounted hand
truck, for the rapid execution of brake tests in
the station, after the train is made up and i'm
mediately before it's departure. The motor is
a vertical one, of automobile type. It is of one
cylinder, water cooled developing five horse
power; the bore is 3.6 inches, the stroke about
d inches, and the maximum speed 1000 revolu-
lions per second. The compressor is geared
down from the motor to operate at a speed of
$50 revolutions. Motor and compressor are sup
piled with fuel from common reservoir and
employ single radiator. All parts which can
possibly be made SO are interchangeable, so that
there is little probability of the assembly
being put out of commission for any length of
time by breakdown.
The French railroads which have tried out
