WHAT HAS BEEN AND WILL BE

At last the longed for day arrived
and our president who is eX-presi-
dent of Rockefeller Foundation, and
Ia few years ago gave us the thrilling
story of yellow fever on the Pan
anna. This time it was third chap
ter of the same dread scourge, clear
ing coasts of South America, islands
and making a last stand on the west
coast of Africa there the great
wide reaches seem impossible.
A new element has appeared, when

that an infected person could land

Vacation

According to our office dictionary
a vacation is an intermission of ac.
tivity. Nothing could be further
from the truth. A vacation is a
time of strenuous activity based up
on the firm resolve that by all that s
holy we will have good time the
next two weeks no matter If we
break a leg having it. 1t is time
crowded with plans that must be
carried out and schedules that must
be followed. 1t is time when we
relax with vigor and rest with a
vim.
During vacation is when we must
visit the water, the farm. the city
and scenic wonders of the nation:
when we must set grimly about be-
ing sunburned; when we must play
enough golf to be satisfied for once /;
when we must drive long distances
SO that we can boast of our mileage;
when we must arrange to attend the
movies as often as we wish, now
that there is no string upon our
time; when we must plan to sleep
late at least one week day morning;
when we must go fishing and pre-
tend we are an old hand at it; when
we must take the children on tha.
chute the chutes ride we've prom
ised them ever since last January;
when we must eat lot of ice cream
because somehow ice cream has a
holiday atmosphere to it.; when we
must be conscious of the fact of
how nice it is to have nothing to do
except what we want to do; when we
must pay up our calls to friends
when we must take that ride in an
airplane we have been promising
ourselves.
Surely the dictionary should be re-
vised.-O. S. Journal.

AGRICULTURAL NEWS NOTES
{ BY H. F. Eaton. County Agent)

Possible Assistance If Needed
The Federal Farm Board is deep
ly concerned by reports of serious
drought in a number of agricultural
regions The United States Depart
ment of Agriculture and its allied
agencies are now surveying dry Sec
tions to determine degree of dam
age to crops, and it's prospective
effect on farmers and their live
stock. In the meantime, the Federal
Farm Board is studying its own
power for financial aid.
Under the Agricultural Marketing
Act. the Federal Farm Board can
not give anything to anybody, but il
has considerable discretion in the
matter of terms on loans There is
also the Grain Sterilization Corpor-
alton through which the board may
work.
IF existing feed distribution agen-
cies or other business men and
farmers in any stricken community
county, district, or state, will form
under laws of their own state a
responsible corporation which will
guarantee payment of notes to be
given by individual farmers, a plan
probably can be quickly developed
whereby the Grain Sterilization
Corporation can sell feed grains OF
any kind in car lots at market
prices. on easy payments of one or
two years. The local organization
would arrange for local distribu-
ton of feed thus supplied, and see
to collection of farmers notes when
due. 1t would make no profit on its
own services and would make proper
local arrangements for payment OF
freight.
The Federal Farm Board can in
this way help every community that
is willing to help itself The Grain
Sterilization Corporation has plenty
of grain and can buy more to re.
place that sold for feed, thus keep
ing it's own supplies intact
The plan is believed to be practi-
cal and workable. 1t would relieve
suffering, dispose of part of the
grain surplus, and put no man OF
community under the necessity O
asking for charity. If local com
munities will do their part, no sub
stantial farmer need lack for feeG
for his livestock, and no stock need
fbe sacrificed on present markets.
DO Not Sell Dairy Stock Until Sept.
