advantages of the self-feeder and gives

The growing scarcity of farm labor
is making it necessary to adopt sys-
tens of farming which will eliminate
a part of the work required at rush
seasons. Such system is carefully
described in "A COrn-Belt Farming

Members of the peace delegations
of all the powers interested In the pro-
posed league of nations and ambassa-
doris and ministers from various coun-
tries, with several hundred newspaper
representatives from allied and neu-
trail countries, mt a dinner In Paris
recently heard II. p. Dawson of the
American Red Cross announce In out
line international Red Cross plans for
world welfare. Mr.. Dawson has been
named chairman of q committee of
Red Cross societies representing the
organizations In the United States,
Great Britain, Italy, France and Japan
"to formulate and propose to the Red
Cross societies of the world a pro-
gram of extended Red Cross activities
in the interest of humanity"
AR. Dawson read wireless mes
sage from President Wilson heartily
approving the plans for co-ordinating
and extending the efforts of the Red
Cross societies of the world. He said
they contained great possibilities for
lessening and preventing distress
among all peoples.
Mr.. Dawson explained and summa-
rized the great plans and prepara-
! lions.
Distress Beyond Comprehension.
"The situation in the world today Is
tragic beyond description. The dis
tress in the world is of course greater
than ever before and beyond compre-
hension. To me, therefore, 1t is clear
that while the leading men of the
world are convened to draw up con-
ditions of peace there is no man or set
of men who can by pencil and paper
establish a peace which can endure
in the presence Of the distress
throughout the world. I refer of course
primarily to conditions in those coun-
tries which have suffered directly from
the war.
But our experience and studies
have revealed conditions in other
countries which are conducive to dis
quiet and unrest and which will con-
tinue to breed spirit of dissatisfac-
ton until they are at least in some de-
gree improved. The fundamental ba-
sis of these conditions is primarily
lack of proper foods, but also lack Of
medical, scientific and general health
practice"
Mr.. Dawson alluded to the work Of
all the Red Cross societies and the
countries represented in them, includ-
ing America, with its 100000 con-
tributors. He then referred to the
conferences at Cannes and Geneva
and continued:
"Our present thought is that our
first efforts should cover the subjects
Of public health and sanitation, tuber-
culOsis, nursing, child welfare and ma
laria and certain other infectious dis
eases. There would be developed at
Geneva an organization which would
receive from every Red Cross society
in the world any information of in
terest and Importance bearing upon
the various subjects in which they
were interested. This organization
would Immediately communicate such
information to every other Red Cross
organization in the world. BY this
method the entire world would be kept
fully Informed Of the latest and best
practices in various subjects.

to his credit along the educational
lines.
Mr.. Wroe comes from a family of
teachers. His father, the late Judge
Wroe taught school in his early man
hood, and two of his sisters, Misses
Margaret Wroe and Julia Wroe are
members of the Cloverport Public
School faculty.
An account of Mr.. Wroe's work in
the Ashland High School is given in
the Ashland Daily Independent, which
says:
"Mr. Wroe came here in the fall of
1915 from Louisville, KY, to become
principal of the high school, and dur
ing the three years of h is admins
tration here he was found to be a man
thoroughly efficient in his work of
governing the school and an excellent
educator He has taken a very active
part in the school work, not only as
principal of the high school, but has
exhibited interest in the welfare of
the school girls and boys in general.
He is we'll versed in human nature,
and understands the art of handling
pupils in a successful manner, always
obtaining the best results.
Added Strength to School.
when Mr.. Wroe came here as
principal there were nine teachers
and one hundred and seventy-six
pupils in the high school and at pre-
sent there are fifteen teachers and
three hundred pupils, showing dec
ided increase in attendance in the last
three years as well as a number of
new teachers required to carry on the
work. Mr. Wroe is considered one
of the best educators in the state.

Beginning this week the Farmers
Column will be published regularity
in each edition of The Breckenridge
News. The column is for the farm
ers of the county, and we hope all
will take a pride and interest in its
success. Write in any questions you
want answered, anything you need
on the farm and we will try to help
you We will also appreciate at any
time any information that you think
may be of value to the other farmers
of the county Bulletins on any agri-
cultural subject will be supplied free
at. any time.
1t is not too late to test the seed
corn. This may save you the time
and expense of replanting 1t will
also pay you to take some care in the
selection of variety that is suitable
for your soils. Many farmers make
the mistake of growing corn that is
too large for their soils. Hickory
King and Reds Yellow Dent are
good varieties for some of our thin
ridges.
If you need fertilizer you need at
least two-hundred pounds per acre.
Broadcast thin over the field with
wheat drill before you plant corn or
set the tobacco out This will make

A first class seed bed for corn or
tobacco is about half the cultivation
necessary Perhaps it means more
than half to the cultivation because
the cultivation of crop after it be-
gins to grow depends very largely
upon the condition of the soil before
the seed was planted.

Nothing will pay bigger dividends
than the constant use of disk har.
row both before and after the soil is
broken. A good team and sharp
disk harrow will do more toward in
surfing a good crop than is usually
understood When the surface OF the
soil is thoroughly pulverized with a
disk harrow before it is plowed, it
allows the dirt to settle perfectly in
to place against the subsoil thus al
lowing the moiture to rise easily.

An anarchistic paper has startled the
citizens Of Now York and Brooklyn by
announcing that halls and private
homes are being engaged for the Sunday
afternoons from July to September Tor
three thousand schools. Children are
to be drilled in the L. W. j. principles
and the tnnentS Of destructive Socialism
and Bolsherism. 1t is n most omlnous

chists have ben distributing litcrturac
among children leaving the school

tutions. Our school teachers Insist that
a crusade IS now on by day and by
night against our free institutions.

A CHILLY PROPOSITION

Apparently tho Eeographers made an
almost fatal mistake in preparing the
peace treaty. in overlooking the fact
that Germany had large territory in
the South Polar region called koiser
Wilhelm the Second Land. and that Aus
tria had other territory in the North
Polar region called Franz Josef Land
AS soon as this discovery was made
clause was drafted with all haste for the
surrender by Germany and Austria OF
these highly valuable colonies. At both
Germany and Austria doubtless think

ritories OF ice and snow might have been
