to his son:

So Frank Haucke went to France
with the A. E. F. He fought on
the battlefields where his father
had fought. but he fought against
the flag that his father had carried.
And now the two are going back
together. Together they will tour

KANSAS USES 1914
COMBINES in HARVEST

If it had been necessary to har-
vest the 1926 Kansas wheat crop
by the methods of 10 years ago,
when the cradle and hand binding
were in vogue, it would have re-
quired 775,000 harvest hands work
ing 20 days to cut, bind and shock
our last years crop. If Kansas
had been called upon to do this
titanic task by these ancient
methods, it would have required
all of the male population of the
state between the ages of Is and
so years, and then, in addition, all
the women of the state between
the ages of 20 and 81 years would
have been necessary to complete
a full harvest crew.
A century ago an able-bodied
man could cradle two acres of
wheat in a day and it took two
other men to bind and shock what
he had cut; or in other words, it
required three men to cut, bind
and shock two acres of wheat in
a day. With the present-day har-
.vesting machines, that is a 20-foot
combine pulled with a modern
tractor, and with a farm motor
truck for hauling grain, an equal
number of men in a western Kan
sas wheat field can cut, thresh and
deliver to market a distance of
two miles, as acrs of wheat a day.
This is fifteen times the acreage
cut, bound and shocked by the three
men of a century ago. Moreover
the work of the present-day har-
vest hand is less arduous and
much more interesting.
In 1926 combines cut 3,1O0, 900
acres of wheat, yielding 50,540,0 900
bushels of grain. These combines
threshed a little over one-third of
The 1926 wheat crop. $4,000 men
working with these S,274 machines
could readily deliver this grain to
he farm bins in less than fifteen
working days. With the accepted
harvesting methods of 100 years
lgo it would have required 80
ines as many working men, or
.pproximately $1,000 men, and it
wouldn't have been done so well.
This is the miracle of the combine.

i Engineering Department, Kan

CHAMPION GIRL MOWER
DEFEATED In CONTEST

DURHAM, N. H.-With an aver
age daily attendance of nearly
1000, the Farmers and Home,
Makers meetings at the Univer,
sity of New Hampshire August 1e
to 10 we're the largest yet held
On the final day about $500 peo.
pie from all parts of the state
we're on hand to see the moving
contest, the farm pageant and
other attractions.
The moving contest was won
by Walter Stickney of Hollis. N.
H., SIS year of age, who defeated
10 others, among whom was Miss
Helen Bernaby, the girl winner of
last years event. A. F. Strand of
Pembroke, N. H.. was second and
Edwin N. Flanders of Warner. N.
H., third. G.. H. Thompson of
Stratham, aged Sc, received the
first prize a S the Oldest mower
and George Corson of Durham.
aged IS, second.
Stickney moved a quarter of an
acre in 6 minutes, 3h seconds.
The farm pageant was built
around the idea Of the Pioneers.
The harships of the old settlers in
building their homes in the forest,
learning from Indians, pulling
stumps with oxen, washing clothes
in the river, etc, were portrayed
as we'll as later pioneer work with
the introduction of the cast iron
pillow and the moving machine.
The fact that pioneers are still
needed today was then emphasized
when the young farmer, burning
up his hoe, called for a two-horse
cultivator, by which he could han
die so acres of corn and potatoes
instead of five; and when the
young woman of today, overthrow
ing a pastry, meat and potato diet,
calls for fruits, vegetables and
milk.
Throughout the week 400 dele
gates and 125 local dealers of New
Hampshire All clubs met at Camp
Carlisle, with daily courses of in
struction.

River Gnaws Away
Towns Foundation

Columbus, Ky.-The Mississippi
river, which gave the town of Col
umbus to the nation, is slowly re-
claiming its gift.
For years the mighty stream,
sweeping around a gentle curve
in its course, deposited silt and
sediment at the foot of a high
bluff until the soil was built out
almost a mile. On this rich bot
tom Columbus was laid out and
has thrived.
Floods came from time to time
but Columbus built levees and a
$500 foot revetment, and a wood
ed island above the town helped
to stay the waves. When the
great ice gorge of 1917 swept
down the river, it changed the
course of the waters from the
east to the west side of the pro-
tective island. A revetment was
built by the Iron Mountain Rail-
road company to hold in check the
water which threatened the town.
But in 1924 the current cut
deeper into the city frontage, eat
ing behind the revetment. Gov
eminent engineers inspected the
site and appropriation of S~175,000
was made for a new bulwark. Be
fore the work started the 1927
flood came, covering Columbus
with IL feet of water and washing
away most of the protective levee.
The river bank has now caved
in 300 feet of the business section,
and it is doubtful whether the
money available will build a suit
able revetment. The town is now
crumbling into the stream whence
it sprung.
So Columbus is going to move
to a new site. A high bluff has
been selected, not far away, over
looking the Mississippi for miles
in each direction. Away from the
bluff and the river stretches a
rich plateau, part of which was
once laid out as a national capital.
Thomas Jefferson proposed the
site, but it was rejected in con
yress by a single vote.
