To Relieve the Cotton Market Washington, June 2.—President Wilson today signed the joint resolu tion repealing the Comor amendment which was included in the agriculture appropriation bill by mistake.

Urges College Men to Summer on Farm Brookings, June 2.—College men of South Dakota are urged if pos sible, to spend their summer vaca tions helping on the farms. An ap peal issued by E. T. Meredith, secre tary of agriculture, says that his year there is special need, for such he'p on the farms because of the import ance of maintaining a normal produc tion of food. "I hope," says Secretary Meredith, "that not only students, but business men generally, will lend aid, as so many of them did, patriotically and effectively, in the summer of 1918." Reports received by the depart ment, he points out, show that the present supply of hired farm labor is 15 per cent less than last year an I approximately 7 2 per cent of the nor mal supply— which was almost ex actly the situation in 1918. The fai mers and their families are doing their utmost to keep up production, but they cannot secure the hired help that they formerly have had, he says. o First Youth to Jump to Circus Sioux Falls, June 2.

"The proper study of mankind Is roan," wrote Alexander Pope, the Eng lish poet. Were Pope living today he would turn to the crowded bank or lawyer's office, where Income tax re turns are filled out, remarks the Bal timore Sun. There was the young couple, for ex ample, who made a goodly Income last year by doin i without a home. They figured the boom in real estate could be turned to good account by them while they were young and able to endure inconveniences. So tlioy bought a little house and moved into It. Within three weeks they had sold It at an advanced price. They then bought another house and sold it shortly thereafter. They did not live In any one house more than six weeks, and, while living in it, the husband painted and repaired, while the wife scrubbed and whitewashed. It was h:ird work, to be sure, hut at the end of the year they had $8,000 profit There was the young conductor, whose income last year was S1.S75, and who was bemoaning the fact that he wasn't married. "You're in luck," said the income fax clerk. "It would be tough to be married In these days of the high cost of living on an Income of $l,S7i). The smooth-faced, red-cheeked young conductor did not see It that way. When he had finished he walked off whistling, in plaintive fashion, "Gee, I Wish I Had a Girl." One found honesty, too. In people in whom it was least expected. There was the racetrack follower, for exam ple, who admitted that he made his living by betting on the horses, lie figured, he said, that he had made $"5 a week and the Income tax clerk tilled out the return that way. The next morning he was back again. "I think I've tpade a mistake In ray figuring," he said. "I believe I should have done it this way." He showed the revised figures to the clerk, by which his weekly income was In the neighborhood of $75 a week. One poker player frankly admitted he had made $000 at the game last year, and the amount was shown In his return, while a fashionably-dressed woman whose income ran into the thousands claimed a loss of $4,000 for money lent a friend, although when pressed for details regarding the tran saction she blurted out: "Oh, that's not necessary—I put It In that way last year." Weaving Mills of Bielefeld. In a review of the Bielefeld flax and »lnen market the Rheinlsch-Westfal isch Zeitung says that the weaving mills cannot undertake operation on a large scale for lack of cotton and lin en yarns. Cotton in particular Is al most wholly lacking, as It has to be imported, and a revival of the.Biele feld Industry is impossible without cot ton. It is Impossible to compete In the world markets with cloth of paper yarn, which was manufactured during the latter years of the war, although Its quality has been Improved consid erably.

To produce more food we must depend upon gasoline power on the farm to multiply the efficiency of the man-power available. The following interesting comparison of man power vs. machine-power, required per acre is illuminatiqf: Crop Man-Hours Man-Hours (1 acre) Th» United States has changed from an agri cultural into a semi-industrial nation. Never again will it see the day when 97 percent of its population dwells on farms. Yet the fact remains that the United States must feed itself, and the only way this can be done is through intensive soil cultivation, made po* sible by automotive machinery7. the farms of the Middle West the line tractor, truck, and automobile are multi plying the productiveness of man-power, and are doing their part in furnishing an adequate supply of food-stuffs. Throughout this great section the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) has developed a sys tem of distribution which insures the farmer an adequate supply of gasoline and lubricating oils. This system is based upon huge storage depots, fed from three large modern refineries. Anticipation of possible difficulties is but one of the many burdens the Standard Oil Com pany (Indiana) assumes in order that con sumers of the Middle West may have their waats supplied.
