THOUSANDS of Italians, who certainly know olive oil, use
: Mazda. Not only because it costs about half that of the best
olive oil, but because of its richness, quality and purity.
For French Dressing, Mazda blends readly-and Mayonndse

TIVE purity and richness of Mazda best demon
l. strates itself in the fact that u to less
Mazda is required than that of butter or lard.
This means that your cakes and pie crust will not
only be light, rich and easily digested but will cost
you less to prepare. Being an oil, the tiresome
"~creaming-in process" is eliminated. Mazda is
always ready for instant use.

INTERESTED IN BIG DAM.
Many Hundreds Of People Visa
Rocky Ford Every Week.

Rocky FOrd every WsN'
Rocky Ford dam, below Manhat-
tan, is the scene Of hundreds OF WIS.,
itors each Sunday, who go to see the
new dam. The dam is practically
complete, requiring only some nm
ishing work on the inside OF the
tunnel, and the clearing away OF
some Of the temporary structures
which were necessary In building
the permanent structure. The der
rick was used to good advantage
Yesterday in removing heavy DRIFT
wood that lodged in various places
about the dam. Recent heavy rains
in Nebraska raised the river to ~
or II feet above the regular water
mark and much drift came down
with the swift current. Many OF
the visitors walked through the tun-
mel yesterday from the west side
and had the experience Of hearing
the roaring water dashing over the
dam, lust above their heads.
The structure is one Of the big
gest engineering feats in the Cen.
fral West. The Rocky Ford plant
is equipped to furnish light and
mower sufficient to Supply vast
section Of territory from the water
power alone, and with the added
force from the steam plant In the
mill which can be applied in any
case Of necessity or emergency al
most an inestimable amount OF eIec-
tricity can be manufactured.

GIRLS HELP DURING HARVEST
Called Home From College to Cook
For Harvest Hands.

For Harvest HANDS.
The young women In central anu
western Kansas are having part in
the harvest as well as the men,. A
large number of the girls attending
business college in Salina have been
called home to assist in the house
work during the harvest. WINE
there appear tObe plenty OF harvest
hands the woman help is limited
and for this reason the girls are
compelled to leave school to help
the mother. This is said to be the
first time students have been called
home to assist in the work in large
numbers, there always before hav-
ing been plenty Of house help.
Although the entire district here
has been overcrowded with harvest
hands. many Of whom could not ma
work, there seems to be no rush OF
harvest cooks, which are generally
plentiful. Fasteners who have come
to harvest this year for the nrst
time have not been able to resort to
the usual occupation Of the man
who does not sign up with a crew
and get berths as cooks helper.
With the tantalizing headlines OF
$15 wages still branded in their
memories, they would evidently
rather starye and have the chance
of signing on late, than start as
helpers to the cooks who few as
they are, are having a hard time
finding kitchen hands.

Some Return to Same Farms year
After Year For Harvest.
These harvest hands that drop In
at this time of the year, are not al
WAYS the strangers one would lm-
agine them to be. Most OF them
are, especially those standing about
the street corners, but there are
many who know Kansas, and the
individual farmer here. And they
have worked for the same farmers
for years. -, :.
They look like strangers. Their
appearance is as of men VINO nave
never seen the vicinity before. But
that isn't always the case. Many
farmers can tell you that.
But these steady employees, as
rule, do not seek the street corners
They know where the farms the!
have worked on, lie, and they wall
out or ride out, but they get ou
there some way. And some OF then
are steady employees.

WESTERN KANSAS AN OASIS
Abundant Rains and Finest Crops
, In Years There Now.

People coming through iron tne
western counties and who have been
familiar with conditions In western
Kansas for some years declare that
never before were such crops raised
as are in evidence there this year
Western Kansas has had three
and four rains this spring where
central Kansas has had one, ana
ONLY last week more than TWO
inches fell. Many of the farmers
who have heretofore used headers
in their wheat fields are this year
going to use binders. This Is true
not only in the wheat but also IN
the oats and barley fields. Corn is
in fine condition but the acreage is
light because of the fact the ground
left for corn went to volunteer
wheat and after being pastured all
winter looked so well the farmers
left it and it is now in first class
condition and will make a good
crop. They declare that the entire
west end of the state is a genuine
oasis this year. ~
