BOARD
FOR VOCATIONAL Ed
UCAT|0N IS To HELP
EVERY DISABLED SERVICE
MAN CAN GET IMMEDIATE
ASSISTANCE NOW

Pending the passage of legislation
which is before Congress at the pres
ent time, every effort is being made
by the District Supervisors of the
Bureau of War Risk Insurance, the
Public Health Service and the Feder-
al Board of Vocational Education to
give service along all of these lines
to every ex-service man in the states
Of Illinois, Michigan and Wisconsin.
Mr.. C. w. Spofford who has been
appointed Reg lonal Director of the
Bureau of War Risk Insurance and
the Public Health Service in this
district is cooperating with Mr.. Chas
w. Sylvester, District Vocational
Officer of the Federal Board for Vo-
cational Education in this district in
every way. Ii is desired that every
service man in the three states un-
derstands that he can get immediate
service with regard to compensation,
insurance, disqualification and train
ing in full at the present time.
The Federal Board for Vocational
Education has had a squad of men
called the .'F.eld Contact and Eligi-
bility Squad, who have been travel
ing throughout the district during the
past six months settling claims for
training under the jurisdiction of the
Federal Board This Squad is now
prepared to help ex-service men in
settling up their claims for compen-
sation and anything they desire in
the matter of securing the proper
treatment and also helping them to
convert every phase if they so de-
sire.
There is no claim which cannot be
settled in full at the present time
even before the legislation which is
now being considered in congress is
passed.
The Posts of the American Legion
are cooperating with all of the Gov
ernment Agencies in settling of these
claims and service men should apply
directly to their local posts in order
that they can get information as to
the program which has been estab-
lished through the cooperation of
Mr.. Spofford, Mr.. Sylvester and the
various Service Departments of the
American Legion throughout the DIS
trict.
1t is hoped that the legislation
which is now being considered by
congress will be passed at once in
order that the actual coordination of
all of the Government Bureaus can
be really accomplished in the very
near future. Pending that time, how
ever, every effort is being made by
all of the officials in question to give
direct service to every disabcd man
in the three states mentioned.

Ruckwheat


(By Myrtle Koon Sherryman)
The buckwheat waved like snowy
sea
Tossing its fairy-like spray,
On the crests Of the waves all sill
ver-white,
In the shadows, silver-grey.
$50 many bushels at so much per-"
Said the farmer, with measuring
eye.
Seeing the snowy, waving field,
In the light of sun-filled sky.
"Oh. goodyl The breakfasts I'll
have next year!'
Said the boy, as he thought of
the cakes
Visions Of gray and golden brown,
Swimming in maple lakes.
And the painter sighed as he look
ed. with all
OF the artists joyful pain:
Love Of beauty, and doubt of his
power
To make it live again.
And tney all are wrong tne
preacher said;
"'Twere better to see, out there,
In the growing grain, with it's up
ward reach,
A lesson of faith and prayer"
.
Yet surely we need the farmers
thrift,
And to feed hungry boy
Is a grace indeed, and the artists
gift
Is a thing Of lasting joy;
And each, as he looks at the fairy
waves,
Gives worship in his way,
AS he sees the crests all silver
white,
And the shadows silver-gray.

The Boy And His Pets

want to tell you story of little
boy that lived in the country. He
did noa have any boys or girls to play
with him. His playmates were a
pussy cat, a little red hen and the
incest, cleanest piggy. that you ever
saw. This little boy had a fine time
playing with them, and was very
fond of his friends.
One morning the little boy just
had a great big cup of coffee for
his breakfast. He liked it so well
that he thought he would give his
friends some coffee for their break
fast, too.
He poured out saucerful of coffee
for the pussy cat; little tin dish full
of coffee for the little red hen and a
great big bowl full of coffee for the
piggy, because piggies are always so
hungry, you know.
When the pussy cat saw her
breakfast she said "Meow Meow,
What is ths?" "Cluckity, Cluck,
Cluck," said the little red hen: 81 dc
not know" But the piggy said "Ouw,
DOW! Let US taste it and find out"
The pussy cat tasted hers and sho
said, "Meow, meow! 1t is coffee. Cof-
fey is bad for pussy cats and ! do not
want any. So she did not drink hers.
The little red hen tasted hers and
she sa d, "Cluckity, cluck, cluck!
Coffee is not good for chickens, either
do not want any" So she did not
drink hers.
Then the piggy tasted his. Now,
you would think piggy would surely
drink his, because piggies always are
so hungry. But he just tasted his,
=. l.
for piggies, too; and Pm so hungry,
oh, I'm so hungry!" And he did not
drink his.
Just then the little boy came out,
and he said, what is the matter,
Mrs. Pussy Cat? You did not drink
your breakfast"
Meow, meow, said she pussy
cat. 81 cannot drink coffee. 1t is bad
for pussy cats. Please bring me a
big saucerful of -. What do you
think the pussy wanted for her
breakfast? Yet, she wanted a big
saucerful of milk.
The little red hen said, "Cluckity,
cluck, cluck! Please take this bad
coffee away and gring me some oats
for my breakfast"
The piggy ran up and said, "Oow,
DOW! | am so hungryi Please bring
me some bread and milk for my
breakfast"
When the little boy had given them
all just the breakfast they wanted,
he said, "Ah, Mrs. Pussy Cat is that
why you are so nice and fat-because
you drink milk" And the pussy cat
said, "Meow, meow! That is just the
reason"
The little red hen said, "Cluckty,
cluck, cluckl See how strong am,
and / eat oatmeal" "I'm strong and
fat too,v said the piggy; "and / like
bread and milk"
Then the little boy ran in the house
and said to his mother, Mother, IL
coffee is bad for pussy cats and little
red hens and piggies, ] think that it
must be bad for little boys too. / do
not want any more coffee. May
lplease have glass of milk to drink
and big bowl Of oatmeal with milk
on IL? | want to grow strong and
fat and healthy, just like my friends,
the pussy cat, the little red hen and
the piggy."-Adapted from "The Lit
tie Red Hen," Brooklyn Bureau of
Cahrities--M. S. Furbeck.

Decatur Republican,
do wish that Mister Hays
Could see my sweet and charming
ways
And how polite and nice I am
When some guy comes to mail a
ham.
How sweetly to those nuts | smile
When they are asking all the while
For stuff they've bought from Sears
Roebuck,
To whom they sent one lonesome
buck
They're looking for bale of tripe,
A Kiddy-Kar or meercshaum pipe;
And round the Office they will stick
Till ] get peeved and burned near
sick.
But yet have to smile and say:
"Your package did not come today"
And then they draw an ugly s'gh,
AS if to say: 81 think you lie"
/ spread them one elastic grin
And say: "Twill soon be coming in"
If Mr.. Hays would come and see
The way some folks are treating
me
/ know full we'll that 'he would sob
And he would let me keep the job.
He'd say: Dear Doc, if you'll stay
here
I'll boost your pay two beans a

HEALTH HINTS FOR
PLANT LIFE GIVEN

Valuable tips on plant sanitation
to prevens parasitic diseases and
rotting of farm produce have been
needed in time, many a threatened
tree may be kept alive and many a
bushel of vegetables kept from rot
ting. Following are the notes as
prepared by DR.. Coons:
@The raspberry patch should be
'caned' TO remove all dead and badly
diseased stalks. This more or less of
a sanitary measure gives the sound
canes a chance.
"In the fall pruning of apple or
chards the farmer has a chance to
rid the trees of cankered limbs. In
deciding what cuts are to be made,
the vgor and freedom from disease
of Limb should be borne in mind.
"Any pruning cut exposes the
heart wood of the tree and opens the
way for heart rot fungi. AS soon as
the cut surfaces are dry they should
be painted with a white lead paste
mot zinc white). Common barn paint
or ready mixed house paint has small
protecting value for pruned surfaces.
The pruning cut should be made
flush with the main branch. The
healing of wounds comes about from
'callus' growth from the cambium
If stubs are left the projecting parts
prevent the healing.
"Hold-over cankers of fire blight
can be located by the blighted twigs
on which the leaves have withered
and dried. The canker is at the base
of the twig. These should be located
and removed. Through winter eradi-
cation coupled with vigilance in the
early part of the growing season
will control fire blight.
Ventilation is necessary in the
storage cellar if disastrous rotting
of the produce is to be avoided. Veg
etable pits should be provided with
straw floor and a straw or crate
chimney Black heart of potatoes
and black specking of cabbage are
due to lack of oxygen in the storage
room.
"A cleanup of all trash from the
preceding crop should take place
promptly in the garden. Many fungi
survive the winter in such trash.
Sanitation is the gardeners greatest
protection.
"In the field sanitation is obtain
ed by crop rotation. Those who fol-
lowed corn with corn, beets with
beets, or beans with beans have this
year found that disease has been one
important factor in their farming.
Aside from its relations to soil fer
tility, crop rotation is necessary to
avoide disease intensiication.
"Seed corn is best chosen in the
field rather than from the bin, but
must come from stalks which mature
naturally and not prematurely as a
result Of root disease"
