MILL OPERATORS NEW WAY .TO AID FARMERS

WICHITA, Kan, Nov. 24 = A new way to relieve the wheat farmer of his difficulties, as the result of low prices and a strained money situation, has been devised by mill and elevator op- ofthe southwest.
 A plan of advancing to grain growers $1 bushel on wheat carried on con- tract, so that they may deliver now and sell at some future date, has been adopted by a large line of elevators and mills. The inauguration of this plan is primarily to relieve the money situ- ation, it was said. Millers declare the pla nwill move considerable wheat and stop talk of forcing the farmers to sell their grain.
 The inauguration of the plan, mill operators said, already has been re- ceiving much favorable comment by farmers as we'll as bankers.
 The plan as outlined by mill and elevator men follows: "The contract with the farmers is very simple. He now has the opportunity to dispose of his wheat at once and receive in turn $1 down. Then as he watches the mar ket quotations he finally decides the quotations have reached the top and he can draw the remainder of his money from the miller or elevator at tho basic market price. The result of the plar can be easily seen. It will relieve the farmer of holding his loan. The wheai will not be subject to weevil and the market will become more stable.'

Many cases of slight colds and
other Illness are reported from va
rious parts OF the county. AT this
season of the year IL will pay to
use the utmost care in protecting
ones self from exposure and. in
case of illness. to be very sure the
trouble is not OF a contagious ma
ture before exposing others. Even
colds are contagious and those who
are troubled with cough, sore
throat or other similar trouble.
would do well to keep away from
public gatherings and public places.
Another good rule to observe Is to
be very careful about splitting and
coughing. Use your handkerchief.
Don't scatter disease germs broad
cast by promiscous coughing and
splitting in public places or about
your home. Such carelessness
breeds disease.

FARM BUREAU NEWS
by County Agent

am often asked lately II the
Farm Bureau stood in opposition
to the Wheat Growers Association
and in reply | wish to say that the
Farm Bureau does not stand in OPP
position TO any farmers organtza-
tion. On the other hand its pro-
gram is to foster and aid any and
all legitimate farm organization;
its plan is constructive not destruc-
tive. Recently Mr.. Sidney Rubinow
resigned as secretary of the cotton
growers association and gave as his
reason the difficulty in such an or
ganization before there was a
Farm Bureau to foster 1t. The
Wheat Growers Association has been
organized for several years but has
never accomplished great deal
and in my opinion will not until
the Farm Bureau Is first well es-
| tablished. Personally | am opposed
| to any organization which appeals
to the prejudice OF its members,
| this old world Is entirely too full
of that now. What we as farm
ers now want to do is to quietly
| get together and organize, not to
| fight but simply to protect oui
rights and II in so doing we spoil an
other fellows job just let him find
another or go to farming, there
| is plenty OF room. All OF the back
! to the farm movements or speeches
that can be made in lifetime are
folly until conditions financially
socially. and religiously are inn
proved. and only through organiza
tion can that be accomplished

POPULATION GREATER THAN
OKLAHOMA's Is STARVING
IN EUROPE.

Imagine line of children, march
Ing four abreast in close order. and
stretching from the town of Keys.
in McCurtain county, extreme
southeastern oklahoma, to the town
of Kenton, in Cimarron county. the
extreme northwestern portion OF
the state. a distance of more than
500 miles.
II the $500, 900 starving babies
OF France. Poland. Austria, Cal
icia and Czecho-Slovakia were so
lined up. they would form such a
column. Or perhaps the mind may
grasp their number better by re-
ferring to the fact that the entire
population OF Oklahoma. men, wo-
men and children. is only 2,O27,5s4.
Thus the starving children OF Eur
one outnumber the entire popula-
ton OF this state by l,472 ,436-
almost as much as Oklahoma
population in 1910.
Or visualize the number of starv-
ing children in this way: IL they
were TO die and be buried in one
trench, It would make one contin-
nous grave from San Francisco 10
New York City.
In order to prevent the deaths
Of these babies. Herbert Hoover
and eight relief organizations, are
asking Oklahoma and America TO
make a Christmas gift of $4,000
900 to them. The organizations
are the Red Cross. American
