GOES TO STUDY CHINK COTTON.
Kansas Aggie Man VIII Go to Univer-
silly of China for Special Work.

Manhattan, Kan, Jan. 81. B.
Griffing, a graduate of the Kansas
State Agricultural college in 1904, will
sail January % to take up work in
the University of China at Marking,
specializing in cotton culture. Grif-
fing's work along this line in Arizona
attracted the attention of w. T. Swim
gle, son of j. F. Swingle, of Manhat-
tan. who interested himself in Grif-
flng's tIip to China. Mr.. Griffing says
that cotton in China bears about as
much resemblance to the cotton of
this country as crab apples do to
Jonathans. Griffing's father j. S.
Griffing. of Topeka, is also a graduate
of the Kansas State Agricultural col
lege.

-
My two years experience as chair
man of the City Food Conservation
kitchen revealed to me how little We
women-the home-keepers of the ma
Northumberland many of the most
vital things that effect the well being
of our families and of society at
large.
Before the war tons Of food which
had not been sold, was left at the
docks and piers, 75 per cent of which
was absolutely fresh and in good con-
dition, provided it was Immediately
taken care of.
With a food conservation program
carried out with the help of u WON
en-, this shocking amount of waste was
greatly reduced during the war.
Speaking from my own experience L
can say that with the establishment
of n huge drying plant in New York,
we managed to save an enormous
mount of fruit and vegetables.
We won the war by our wonderful
ability to organize and by u ire
mendous energy and determination.
We could correct many of the eTl's
which have sprung up as h result
of war. If we would apply these same
elements o ,fsuccess.
The necessities of war revealed TO us
women who did what we could to help
the further necessity of continuing
work in the interests Of the public
good.
To solve Problems
The woman who earns her living,
the woman who has to care for a
houseful OF little ones, n the woman
whose time Is taken up in looking
after invalid parents or some nnfor-
tunate womau's children, has no time
to devote to the many urgent prob
lens that assail US today.

woman who substituted the pleasures
of society during the war for some SER
sous work, to transfer this interest
to the benefit of our war problems
