should, If possible, provide them
selves with sufficient funds to
tide them over in case of unavoid-
able delay in securing employment
Cutting may be advanced or retard
ed by weather conditions. Engi-
neers, cooks and others seeking
employment usually meet with the
most success in obtaining such
work by going directly into the
fields
Present indications are that Kan
sas will harvest s,445 900 acres of
wheat, which is 1855, 900 acres less
than last season. This is about tho
average acreage for the past five
years.
In the eastern third of Kansas,
although representing one-fifth of
the total acreage, the demand for
extra harvest labor will be negiig-
ibIe. The central division. COM
prising the big wheat section, will
harvest more than half of the total
acreage or a little more than A.
600 200 acres. The western divis-
ion contains one-fourth of the Kan
sas acreage or a trifle over 2,000,-
600 acres. The central and west
ern division will require thousands
of men from outside the state when
the harvest season starts.
Under normal weather conditions
cutting usually starts in the south !

Stockholm-Before long Swedish
unemployed may have a chance to
become Independent farmers. When
they recently expressed the desire
TO obtain small farms of their own
where they might work till old age
without being subjected to en-
forced idleness, their request
sounded at first like wishing for
the moon.
But not SO to the minister of az
riculture, who Immediately ordered
an investigation into the POSSIBLE
tiles of forming a farm colony in
the province Of Soedermanland. IL
the plan 10 found feasible the gov
eminent may purchase land to be
parceled among its unemployed
The project would, of course, in
volve more than acquiring the land.
The government will have to build
cottages on the farms and supply
It's INDECENT citizens with live stock,
farm implements and living ex-
penses for the first year.
The farm project Is one of the
most important and interesting of
many attempts for relieving the I'M
try. Last winter several thousand
tobless were given instruction in
almost any branch OF learning IN
which they were interested. Large
appropriations were set aside for
doles and for public works 1T
which the otherwise unemployed
would be able to earn living wage,
and it was hoped that conditions
would soon become better. Never
theiess, Unemployment is still the
most serious problem OF Sweden
despite a slight decrease In the
number OF idle.
The jobless still number more
than $50. 900, of whom about 65
receive aid This number is high

being planned.
