When you're feelin' kind O. lonesome
And the atmosphere is blue;
When life's no bed o roses,
And folks seem down on you.
I know what'II make you happy,
An chase away the frown-
Read the little OF newspaper
From your OF home town
You won't laugh about the trif1in'
things
The paper has to say,
For every lines a message
From the OF home far away;
Even Sis new chicken coop
Will not provide a smile,
An the great big city dalies
Lie unopened all the while.
BiPs girl has gone to college
And Joe's boy is back from France !;
The Ladies' Aid will hold a social,
An the Masons give a dance,
So you read the local happ 'nins,
An never miss a line
Cause they're all your neighbors
You'll be glad that crops are fine
Then before you know it,
You've read it thru and thru,
An all the world seems brighter
An life seems more to you.
So, for a pill o. pleasure
To chase away the frown,
Take the little OF newspaper
From your OF home town.

MEET HARVEST HAND PRoBLEs,

Do you have harvest labor prob
lem In your town during the wheat
harvest Most towns in the wheat
belt have had such a problem every
year, but this year many are making
it an opportunity"
The provisions in the average town
are inadequate for this sudden addi-
ton to the population The result
is that the attitude of the people has
not always been welcoming one
The Inter-Church World Move
ment assisted by the Kansas State
Agricultural College. is helping to
solve this problem in the way that it
was handled at Pratt last year A
large tent equipped for Community
service" was put up by the citizens
of the city The sort of work was
done there which was carried on for
soldiers during the war by the vari-
Gus war welfare agencies. Enter
tainments, meetings, opportunities for
writing letters, and personal service,
were provided, also clean sleeping
quarters at low price.
The result was that Pratt secured
and held an ample supply of the best
labor obtainab1e, and the men going
back east carried glowing reports of
Pratt
A by-product of this service was
that undesirable were easily weeded
out-four I. w. w. agitators were
jailed and eight professional gamb-
lers praying upon the honest work
er were rigidly. dealt with.
Paul Douglas for the Inter-church
World Movement, and Walter Burr,
director of rural sevice, K. S. A. c..
/ are organizing this movement thro-
| out the wheat belt in Kansas. They
| have just sent out list of practi-
cal details for the guidance of all
the towns that wish to render this
/ service By writing to the rural ser
vice department, K. S. A. c., all pos
sible information and assistance will
be given

cuLr1vArrNG ROW soRGHuMs


Sorghums planted in rows should
be given the same careful cultivation
as is given to corn The disc listed
corn cultivator or any implement that
will stir the bottom of the burrows
and push a little dirt around the
young plants will greatly stimulate
their growth. At the same time the
small weeds should be killed, espec-
tally from the burrows.
Early cultivation of row sorghums
is important at this stage the
young plant grows very slowly and
the weeds may especially outgrow
them. After the sorghums have reach
ed a height of from four to eight
inches the growth becomes more
rapid and in a short time cultiva-
ton that will push considerable dirt
to the plant can be given. If at this
time all of the weeds can be killed
the critical period of the sorghums
crop has been passed, providing
reasonable amount of moisture is
available.

HOW TO FIND HEssIAN FLY

At this time of the year the Hes
sian fly is changing from the 1arva to
the fax seed stage or is passing from
the little maggot stage into the rest
ing stage before it energies into the
adult Hessian fly which will lay eggs
that will hatch and infect the early
wheat, either volunteer or that sown
in the fall.
The maggot or fax seed is found
between the lower leaf sheath and the
stalk at the first joint, and feeding
there has weakened the stalk and
will cause it to fall over or has sc
stunted the plant that it will never
make a head.

33My time is worth a dollar an
hour" I heard an important young
brainbuster say the other day Sure,
but the trouble was that he was not
disposing of any of it at that figure.
There was no market for his kind of
time, so his bank account failed to
sprout and his credit was no good at
any of the stores. Another young
fellow who had no more golden op-
portunity than the brainbuster was
selling his time for fifty cents an hour
and was on easy street, with money
in the bank and all kind of credit.
You will never get rich or cut any ice
on the goods the world does not want
and refuses to buy. You had better
sell some of your time at ten cents an
hour than to keep it all on your
shelves marked up to dollar an hour.
Dollar an hour time is all right if you
