That, perhaps, is the whole pathetic story. The
light went out for Rudyard Kipng when his hand
some young was slain.
John Kipng died in the battle Of Loos The Irish
guards had gone to the front in the first months Of
the war. The battle of Ioos came in September,
1915
Young kipling at first reported wounded and
missing. Like many other fathers, Rudyard Kip

the war office corrected the first report to read
KILLED in action"
Life has been ashes in the mouth fer the famous
father ever since. Like other Engshmen,
perhaps he holds America responsible.
Had America entered the war at the beginning, or
even early in 1915 the lives Of hundreds of thou
sands might have been saved. That's the way the
thoughts of some men run. And you can't argue
with who think like that. They have been too

Editorial Comment
The Kansas Seed Wheat Fund
kansas City Starr


1t is doubtless surprising to many people to learn
that fund Of 100000 is being raised to purchase
seed wheat for distribution in Kansas During July
and August reports Of record yields of wheat from
Kansas fields were matter of daily occurrence.
None Of these came from the northwest section Of
the state In that area the wheat crop was almost
a complete failure. The corn crop was utterly de-
stroyed before the ears had formed. Not only was
the source of income on such farms destroyed, but
the failure of banks made it impossible to obtain
financial assistance for those whose only asset was
their ability to put in wheat crop. None Of the
seed wheat will be distributed among farmers VIII,
are able to obtain credit from other sources.
The seed wheat fund is net matter Of charity.
Each of the counties to which help is given has
raised 90 500 locally as matter Of good faith. The
Of representative men, who will insure that it goes
into the possession of farmers who have other
source Of credit Those receiving the wheat will
turn oneffth Of the 1927 crop in payment for seed.
The contributors to the fund not only expect to have
he original amount refunded, but hope that the
yields If wheat will be such as to insure an ade-
quate return upon their investment
similar fund was raised in 1923 to provide seed
for the which produced the heaviest yields in
1926. The seed wheat fund is simple example
of the old command to bear each others burdens.
~ IS means OI neIplnE 10 Orlng large NUMBER OF
distressed farmers back to a sound basis.
In the early history of Kansas exodus of set
tiers occurred when similar conditions prevailed.
The wheat fund will prevent such occurrence
this year. It will be the means of adding approxi-
mately one hundred thousand acres to those which
would otherwise have been seeded.
There may be few individuals who will condemn
the wheat fund because of the possible addition to
SURPRISES in 1927. Those whose theory of economics
rests upon the basis that the smallest total crop
brings in the greatest returns to the farmers as
group will not be found among the list Of contrbu-
tors. Those who are advancing the fund come from
groups to which the production Of wheat is Indirect
~ source of income. Members Of the board of
trade. clearing houses, manufacturers Of farm i'm

viduals make up the list. These individuals and
groups acknowledge their dependence upon the pros
