TOPEKA, Kan., March 28.—Kansas
will answer the cry of the world for j
food this year, by contributing mil
lions of bushels of wheat to be doled
out to America, the allies and the few
remaining neutrals.
Despite reported threats of reduced
acreage if higher prices were not fixed
for the 1918 crop, the best informa
tion obtainable indicates the appeal
to the patriotism of the farmers made
by President Wilson in his announce
ment of the wheat price schedule will
meet with an overwhelming response
from the wheat-growing sections.
Last year, Kansas farmers sowed
9.090.000 acres of wheat. Only about
4.500.000 acres of this was harvested,
owing to adverse weather conditions
—and the net yield was approximately
forty million bushels. An equal, if not
greater acreage, which seems assured,
will yield a much greater crop, with
fair weather conditions this year.
The Kansas state defense counci
anticipating the laboring needs of the
farmers, is rapidly mobilizing the “boy
power” of the state to meet the defi
ciency caused by enlistment and the
draft. Through the county councils
a “Boys’ Working Reserve”—designed
to include every youth too young te
serve the colors, but anxious to par
ticipate in the struggle for democracj
is being organized. These boys wil
take the places in the harvest fields
left by the men “over there.”
Hundreds of Kansas schools an
' holding six day sessions, at the Bug
gestion of Governor Arthur Capper, ii
order to close school earlier in thi
summer thereby releasing thousand
of youths and male school teachers ti
assist the farmers.
