ACCOUNT OF SCARCITY OF HELP
I have always sought to sell the other
fellow's land Instead of my own, but now,
on account of the scarcity of help and
the troubles I am having trying to farm,
I am offering for sale some of my own
places, ranging In acreage from 160 acres
up to 1,060 acres. I will fit these places
with stock, horses, harness, machinery,
etc., etc., ready to stop on and go ahead
If desired. I will sell you either on all
cash or on terms to suit your conveni
ence, carrying the balance back at 6
per cent. These are excellent farms for
wheat, small grain of all kinds, alfalfa
and I can show a county average on
corn of 30 bushels to the acre. Where
can you make mora money than to come
here and ralae wheat for Uncle Sam?
There Is no excuse for you now that I of
fer my places on easy terms. If you want
terms. I realise that it is quite a task to
go Into a new country and buy a piece
of land and then go on and stock up
with stock, work horses machinery, etc.,
and I will sell you a place complete with
a certain number of head of stock and a
complete line of machinery, all In one sale
so that It will be all ready for you to
step into. 1 have some places that I can
even sell you crops and all with the
plaecs so that you can Btep right In and
lo your own harvesting. Ten solid years
in the land businetas here In Dawes
county and never foreclosed a mortgage
is my record. This certainly should give
you confidence and make you feel safe In
coming direct to me and letting me fit
you out.

The Giant Wins a Battle.

the Woods to turn farmer so that two coun

V V Farmer
you start work?"
Dalton asked the
Giant of the Woods. "When
do tlie boys want to enlist?" ;
"Tomorrow," chorused Ben and
Bill. "A lot of our chums are going i
then." j
"Tomorrow will hit me just right. I
The fishing is mighty good today."
But it didn't hit Peggy right. "You
hadn't ought to waste another hour,"
she declared.
Father Dalton and his sons looked
around in bewilderment. Then they
looked at the Giant. Of course they
couldn't see Teggy, who was hidden
from them by the Camouflage Per
fume. "Arc you a ventriloquist?" asked
Ben.
The giant laughed. "No," lie an
swered, "that's the spirit of 1918
do what you have to do right now.
I'll start work this very minute. No
more lazy loafing for me until war
is done."
"I'm glad of that," remarked Fann
er Dalton, looking anxiously at the
sky. "It feels a bit like rain and I'd
like to get the hay in. The crop
means enough dollars to pay our back
debts and I'll feel a lot easier when
it's safelv in the barn."
"So will we," declared Ben. "Then
we'll not have any home worries when
fighting for Uncle Sam."
So they went to work. The hay,
all cut and dried, lay in the meadows
waiting to be loaded on wagons and
carried to the barn.
Peggy was astonished at the
amount of work the Giant could do.
He seemed immensely strong and
pitching hay was like play to him.
He pitched more than Ben and Bill
together. Farmer Dalton looked on
approvingly. "He's doing the work
of three men," he declared.
Peggy herself was having a splen
did time. The smell of the new hay
was wonderfully sweet. She climbed
up on the small haycocks and rolled
down them and even had a wonder
ful ride on a load of hay. She had
patted the Giant's hand approvingly
as he finished pitching the hay upon
the rick, and he had responded by
tossing her away up on top as the
horses started for the barn. That
was a ride filled with thrills, for she
seemed a terrible distance from the
earth and the load tossed and pitched
as the wagon jolted over the rough
field. Feggy felt even more quivers
of excitement than when she went
flying in her airplane.
The Birds kept close watch on
Peggy. Bill and Ben, who didn't
know of her presence, were much
puzzled by this.
runny how those birds act, saia
Bill.

Real Fish to Be Grown
Right in City Limits
Three years hence ocal disciples of
Isaac Walton will not have to leave
the corporate limits of Eau Claire,
Wis., to do their trout fishing if the
plans of the city council pan out all
right and it is predicted they will.
Running through Putnam park a
beautiful natural park donated to the
city by the late H. C. Putnam and de
scribing a semicircle around the third
ward, and within a 15-minute walk of
the business center is Minnie creek,
and this stream has been stocked with
fingerling trout. In order to give
these fingerings a chance to grow to
"life size," the coiAcil has drawn up
an ordinance prohibiting fishing in
this stream for three years.
The creek will be thrown open to

Invisible Fairy"
"Must be that a big storm is com
ing," replied Ben. "I've heard of
beasts and birds acting queer when
a hurricane is near."
Farmer Dalton. happy as he was
at seeing the hay flowing into the
mow in his barn, was worried. The
sky didn't look right to him. It
didn't look right to Peggy, either.
She began to feel that something was
about to happen.
After a while a dark cloud appeared
awa off on the western horizon. All
the men saw it and their work be
came a race. They knew now that
a storm was coming and they would
have to rush to save the hay. Faster
and faster the Giant speeded up. Ben
and Bill couldn't keep up with him,
and their father came to their aid.
Even with three men working against
hint the Giant did more than the
others together.
The Giant wasn't used to labor. He
had been taking things easy for years,
hunting, trapping and fishing. Pitch
ing hay on a hot day caused the per
spiration to drip from him. But he
stuck to the job. As the storm ap
proached he worked harder and
harder. Teggy was sorry for him,
and yet .he was glad, for he was
showing that he was a real hero a
hay hero.
Finally, the last load was on the
wagon. It started for the barn. The
storm clouds were now traveling rap
idly. They mounted higher and
higher in the sky. mere was a
strange stillness in the air. The
horses were urged toward the barn
on a gallop. As they dashed up the
incline to the barn door with the rain
in sight sweeping across the mead
ows from which they had just come,
there was a sudden snap and the
wagon came to a stop. The harness
on one of the horses had broken. To
stop for an instant meant the wetting
of the hay and its possible loss.
The Giant jumped forward, seized

fieshermen on May I, 1921, when it is
expected the stream will be well
stocked with speckled beauties, but
each fisherman will be limited to a
catch of six, or maybe as high as 10,
trout.
Minne creek is a mile long and its
source is well within the city proper,
and so is its mouth, at the Chippewa
river. Many Eau Claire people will
be able to fish from their back doors
when the ban is lifted by the council.
General Business
Dead in Germany,
Fugitive Reports
Toulon, France, June 23. Business,
in the peace-time sense of the word,
virtually is dead in Germany, asserts
Sergeant Vuillemet, who, with several
comrades, recently escaped from a
war prisoner camp in Germany and
reached France, and who is on a
visit to his father here.
According to his story, countless
stores in Germany were closed and
empty and everything that is being
manufactured is for war purposes and
for the state.
The meat ration, he said, was one
half pound per week, to which was
added one-tenth of a pound of grease
or fat. Sugar and coffee were only
dimly remembered luxuries. The
beer was virtually undrinkable, and
the people were living on potatoes
and beets. The bread is said to be
indigestible.
Leather had almost entirely dis
appeared, and the soldiers at home
and many civilians wore wooden
soled shoes almost exclusively. Sol
diers home on furlough were no long
er permitted to spend all their time
with their families or friends, but must
work part time in the factories.
The morale of the civil and mili
tary population, Vuillemet says, is
maintained by the continual spreading
of stories about an alleged "desper
ate situation in France" and German
victories, which are loudly proclaimed
by the ringing of bells not yet seized
for ammunition purposes.

the broken harness and, pulling
against the other horse, jeiked the
wagon safely into the barn just as the
rain came down in torrents.
Peggy and the Birds had taken
shelter in a shed a little distance from
the bam. Peggy wished that she had
gone to the barn with the others, for
it would ha e been very comforting to
hold the hand of the Giant as the
wind howled, the lightning flashed
and the thunder rolled.
"Oh, Judge Owl will drown!" cried
Bob Olink to Peggy. She lo. ed out
into the storm, and there was Judge
Owl floundering helplessly before the
wind. He had sought refugs in a
tree and had been blown and washtd
out. Without thinking of herself,
Peggy dashed out to save him. She
grabbed him and steered him into the
shed.
As she did so she herself was caught
bv the storm. The rain washed away
the Camouflage Ferfume and she
could see herself again.
There was a shout from the Giant.
He was loking at her from the barn.
So were Ben, Bill and Fanner Dalton;
all very much astonished. The Giant
rushed to her rescue. As she saw
him coming and struggled toward
him, Peggy found herself picked up
by th.- wind, tossed about in a whirl
ing blurr of rain, carried rushing for
a long distance, and suddenly cast
downward.
She '.anded in her own hammock at
home. Surprised and delighted,
though dripping wet, she jumped out
and ran as fast as she could for the
house.
"I'm mighty glad they got that hay
in," she thought, as she gained the
door. "That was a real battle and
the Giant of the Woods showed him
self a dandy fighter."

WOUNDED MEN MUCH
BETTER CARED FOR
Percentage Who May Return
to the Ranks is Much
Larger Than Ever
Before.
(Correspondence of the Associated Press.)
French Front, June 23 Marvels are
being performed by the surgeons at
tached to the various entente armies.
By exercising their skill they have
restored to the fighting strength of
the allied nations each year since the
beginning of the war, whole divisions
of men who in other warj would have
died of their wounds or would have
been crippled for life.
The recent gigantic battles, as the
result of which more wounded men
than ever before have received surgi
cal treatment within a short space of
time, have demonstrated the immense
strides made not only in the surgery
but in the methods of removing the
wounded from the battle fields and
transporting them to hospitals. So
effective is the co-operation between
surgeons and physicians at the front
and those at the hospitals in the rear
that an immensely larger proportion
of the wounded recover than was the
case at the beginning of the war.
Men whose legs r arms have
been fractured by shells now are
restored to their regiments in a min
imum of time. This is due mostly td
the fact that they receive prompt an
tisceptic treatment and surgical atten
tion which prevents blood-poisoning
and the stiffening of articulation.
Their recovery is rapid in the hos
pitals behind the lines where they can
be treated under comfortable condi
tions far from the nerve-wracking
sound of the guns.
Believe in Doctors.
Soldiers have been inspired with
confidence in the army surgeons in
the great battles around Verdun and
in the great German offensive which
began in March.
Promptness in the treatment of
wounded men has been obtained by
segregating them in classes according
to the nature of their wounds. This
was not generally done at the begin
ning of the war. The plan then in
vogue was to erect large hospitals as
near the fighting lines as possible,
say 10 or 12 miles from the front, and
to send all cases there for treatment.
When big battles occurred these hos
pitals were over-crowded and owing
to the delay in operating there were
many cases of gangrene, tetanus and
other infections that resulted fatally.
The enemy did not hesitate to
bombard the hospitals either with the
artillery or from airplanes. Some
times a train load of wounded men
would arrive only to find all the beds
occupied and that they must move
on to another hospital.
Divided Into Categories.
Most of this difficulty now has been
overcome. When wounded men reach
the first dressing station or field am
bulance they are divided into cate
gories. Those simply wounded are
rapidly dressed and sent to convales
cent hospitals. Those crippled are
sent to cripple depots. Men who have
been gassed go to special hospitals,
and those most dangerously wounded
are transferred to hospitals nearby, to
remain until they recover or die.
Those suffering from severe but
tMPKOVING EVERY DAY.
Confidence
not dangerous wounds receive prompt '
treatment in the advanced ambulances
where operations are performed and
wounds disinfected before the met
are sent to permanent hospitals. .
By these divisions of the wounded
into classes, it is asserted that great
rapidity of surgical intervention is
achieved, as each specialist deals only
with cases needing his kind of skill
Then the patient is removed to the
hospital at a distance of not more
than a journey of ten or twelve hours,
where he receives attention from an
other specialist working in close co
operation with his colleague in the
advanced ambulance.
Ths system of segregation o)
wounded and co-operation of doctors
is said to have produced marvelous
results. '.
Answer Pleased Grant,
So He Rewarded Colonel
Dr. James Thorington had t
"Panama dinner" for some of his
confreres who shared the exciting life
on the Isthmus in the early '80s, anc
he told this story of how his father
that doughty civil war veteran, Col-, ,
onel Thorington, obtained the post oi
consul at Colon: r
Grant was the first president to in
stall civil service regulations govern
ing appointments to federal office.
Colonel Thorington for once in hif
life turned pale when he went tc
Washington and this question faced
him on his examination paper:
"How many soldiers did England K
send to the colonies during the revo
lutionary war?"
He gazed at the paper and the paper
gazed at him for many precious min
utes. Then in desperation the colonel
wrote:
A d d sight more than ever went
back!"
He trudged home to his hotel mut
tering to himself: "Oh, well, it's all
off now!"
Some time later an orderly knocked
at his door. "Colonel Thorington, the
president would like to see you, sir."
He went to the White House, feel- :
ing "shaky."
The president, smiling broadly,
wrung his hand. "Colonel, you're a
man after my own heart," he cried. ,
"Here are seven consulates. Which
will you have?" New York Tribune.
Bound to Be Hungry If
You Do Not Eat Enough
It is impossible to stop eating and
not feel the pngs of hunger, occord
ing to Popular Science Monthly. If ,
you have been led to believe differ- '
ently by the stories of men who have
undergone fasting tests, listen to the
words of Prof. Carlson of the Univer
sity of Chicago. He found at t re
suit of observation on man during
prolonged intentional starvation that
the view that hunger mechanism fails
early does not hold as a general rule.
The prdfessional faster, he points out.
may ignore the pangs of hunger in a
spirit of bravado.
Indian, fakirs who have been prac
ticing the trick of fasting until the :
normal cravings of the body have.'
submitted to will power, are said to
be able to go without food for incred
ible periods of time. But probably
the real truth of the matter is knowr. ,
only to them. '
