The frost caught a lot of feed uncut iu these parts. Bryan Hines is on the sick list at this writing. Dick Stonehawker and Fred Barbour made a business trip to Scott crop otf rightly. Conditions could nnt possibly be better in that respect; therefore it is the time of all for every farmer who is interested in wheat growing to put forth every effort to get in the largest wheat acreage that he can handle with a reasonable degree of efficiency. This part of the state can' safely boast that it has the rest of the state bested in the production of heavy producing sorghum crops this year.

To put it mildly, Scott County challenges anything in middle or eastern Kansas to compare crops with us this year. These crops have been produced on lands in which there is but a small investment; for this Western Kansas land is yet but poorly appreciated by the average farmer further east, who feels rather severely his burden of. investment and taxation. The Annual "Field-Day" at the Demonstration Farm, one mile west of Scott City, was attended by fifty-five persona who showed a keen interest iu the subjects of the various speakers and in the crops and the machinery lat has been used and the methods of Culture'' that has produced these' results. Pure-bred seeds from these farms weretaken to Lane, Rice, Wichita.

and Logan counties, besides those distributed to progressive farmers of our own The packing industry is intricate, complex far more so than the railroads or the telegraph. Every day multiplying needs of society increase its problems and multiplying responsibilities demand more of it Highly trained experts, specialists of years' experience, thinkers and creative men, devote their lives, their energies, their activities, to solving the problems of the packing industry and meeting its widening duties. Swift Company is not a few dozen packing plants, a few hundred branch houses, a few thousand refrigerator cars, and a few million dollars of capital, but an organization of such men. It is the experience, intelligence; initiative' and activity which operates this physical equipment. Can this intelligence, this experience, this initiative and ative effort handles this business at a profit of only a fraction of a cent per pound from all sources, be fostered through the intervention of political theorists, however pure their purposes? Or be replaced by legislation? Does Congress really think that it can? Have you a winter coat, suit, dress, or skirt or other wearing apparel that has become so badly faded that you cannot wear them?

In addition to furnishing rations and comforts and medical attention to the fighting men, the American Red Cross instituted 42 soup kitchens, 36 children's hospitals, 10 children's dispensaries, 14 artificial limb factories, five homes for refugee children, 10 rest stations for refugees.
