When you were packing his grip
and had all his things spread out
upon the bed to be sure you had
forgotten nothing, did you drop to
your knees and ask God to watch
over and care for your boy through
the dangerous days that were to
come? And did you remember
how proud you both were of your
boy, your only boy?

Then did you see him the day he
first started to school, with his
book you bad covered with a gay
piece of calico field tightly in his
hand?
Little mother, did you think of
the great feeling of thankfulness
and pride that welled up in your
heart that morning as your boy
turned around and waved his hand
at you as he disappeared around
the corner? Did you remember
how long the morning was. how you
clasped him in your arms when he
came in at noon? You remember
you we re watching for him long be-
fore time for him to get home; and
all the time you were thinking, sup-
pose something should happen to
my boy, and I shall never see him
again?
Do you remembar that evening
when other children came, your
love for your first born did not
grow less, but that it grew greater
all the time? And then when you
had traced his whole life back again
to the present and the realization
came upon you once more that he
was going to war, did you throw
yourself across the bed where his
things were and cfry out in your
anguish; "Oh I can't give him up,
I can't give him up!'? Andx did
you finally still yourself, to pack his
clothes in his grip carfully examin-
ing every sock to see it was properly
darned, and examining every gar-
ment to see that no buttons were
missing? And a week after he
was gone did you go with his father
and sisters and brothers to see him
when he was encamped with his
company? And did you feel proud
ot your son when you saw him in
J113 uniform?
Little mother, your boy has
answered the call of his country in
its time of need, and how proud of
him you must be. Proud to know
that your son was not afraid to go.
When the greatest trial of all comes
to you, when you stand in front of
the bullettin board and watch dry-
eyed as the list of wounded and
killed is posted up, you will feel a
thrill of joy, that your boy, your
first born, was not afraid to go
when his country called him.

of using it profitably. It is well.
But what about the importance
of the equipment for those who
farm the farmers? How is the
farmer's wife and his sweetheart
going to make home life what is
expected without home equip-
ment?
If horse-power and man-power
are to be conserved, as all will
agree, what about women-power?
How is the keeper of the farm
home whose resposibilities are
far greater than those of the
mangers to provide comfort, con-
veniences and high ideals for the
manager and the children when
every day is a day of drugery?
Only the superhuman will be able
to be qheerful and efficient under
such adverse conditions.
Home equipment of the proper
kind would transform many
homes from drugery and dis-
content into homes of companion-
ship and copartnership where
each strives to do more than his
or her part and where high
ideals and lofty sentiments may
be promulgated. — Farm and

The donations ot needle work
have been numerous and beau-
tiful, the fish pond for the little
folks has been liberally provided
for, and the refreshments for
which Schulenburg is always
noted, are of the usual good kind
and variety.
Music for the lovers of the
dance will be furnished by the
Cornelson band.
The ladies have left nothing
undone to provide the necessaries
for a very pleasant day, no time
could be more appropriate for
such ^n occasion than that of
Thanksgiving, for in the face of
the grave dangers confronting
us there remains much to be
thankful for. We should be
thankful that the war is not being
fought within our borders, .we
should be thankful that this
country has the resources to
carry on this war to a successful
end, we should be thankful for
the bountiful crops that enable
us to keep hunger from our doors
and fesd our boys at the front.
We should be thankful for the
large army of .young men ready to
serve their country, for the old
men ready to give of their time
and means to help toe govern-
ment, for the splendid army
of self sacrificing women who
are standing shoulder to shoulder
to aid the Country, the Govern-
ment and the Boys, in the-£rej>-
arations for the great work
is before us, and we should
thankful for the Red Cros9
ganization that administers
the suffering of all, regaraless
nation, creed or color. So
no other way can we give
more fittingly than by
this bazaar of the local Red
a great success. The p

our own boys at the front,
everyone who is interested

Less Hand-Labor Next Year
Whatever may be the difficulties
of securing farm labor it will be ad-
visable to save as much as possible
next year. Practical farmers real-
ized the cost of such hand-labor as
"chopping cotton," picking cotton,
"pulling corn,'' planting seeds by
hand. Such work will be especially
expensive during the war when
hands arahard to get and perhaps
not available at any reasonable
price.
The problem for each individual
farmer will be to plant such crops
as require a minimum of expensive
hand-labor and where possible sub-
substitute crops that may be tilled
and harvested by machinery or at
least with few hands.
The cost of production is a factor
to be reckoned with now since equip-
ment is expensive. High prices
for food and feed crops will not
bring profitable returns unless the
cost of producing and marketing
these products is kept within reson-
able limits
In selecting the crops to be grown
and planning the disposition of the
products it will be highly desirable
to choose crops that are most likely
