The idea of fasting in itself is not sufficiently nove] to tention, It has been attempted by those who h time and_ ine ion, Never before as a busy executive, whose every moment is crowded with the multi- farious details of directing hundreds of employes and editing and publish- ing six periodicals of national cireu- lation, attempted to go without any food just to prove that abstinence from good clears W™ brain and in- creases capacity for work . That the old theory that one cannot fast without stopping work and all forms of strenuous exercise is unten- able.

Other offtees will be maintained by the State and Feder- al Services at Kansas City, Kansas, Topeka, Kiowa, Parsons, Salina, Col- by and at other points if required to| bring about equitable djstribution. Best information is that “wages will be $4.00 a day with board and lodg- i ng. OTHER STATES: Information re- lative to Nebraska, the Dakotas and other states in the Big Wheat Belt will be covered in a subsequent bul- letin. Things To Remember Kansas City is fully 200 miles from the Big Wheat Belt and harvest hands should, insofar as possible, go directly to the points where men are needed. Cooks, engineers, and separator men should have advance information as to jobs or go prepared to do regu- lar harvest work until their special work. is found. The demand for Colored Labor is not large and colored men should not go to the harvest fields without as- surance of work, Railroads are not granting special rates to harvest hands and transpor- tation is seldom advanced by farm- ers, Harvest hands must pay their own way to the fields. | Development In d Rubber Industry Is Astonishing (A comparison of tire service stand- ards today with those of ten or fif- _ teen years ago reveals the fact that | the development in the rubber in- dustry hag been most astonishing.

Observers figured after the tests that the Richmond could go from \ Detroit, Trenton and Con- New York to Porto Rico in 48 hours, and could cross the Atlantic within four days, even by sacrificing some speed to make her fel supply last. The record crossing was made by the Mauretanin in 1910 in four days, 10 hours and 41 minutes. The Maure- tania averages from 25 to 27 knots an hour.

ROHRER TAXI LINE Phone 57 'N considering the oil business as it is today,’ we must think in terms of 1923 and not in terms of 1913—which was before such un- heard of impetus had been given to the automotive industry. In 1913 there were but 1,287,000 motor vehicles registered in the United States, while the year ending December 31, 1922, saw a total re- gistration of 12,239, 114—an increase of 900%. The magnitude of the oil business is so vast that no man can visualize it clearly. It is difficult to picture the needs of 1214 million auto- mobiles, to say nowing of the vast gallonage needed to supply tractors, stationary gas engines, and the de- mand for line coming from the arts and industries generally. The problem of supplying 12% million cars is quite different from the problem confronting the in- dustry a decade ago when but 114 million cars were in commission. The adaptation to a’ changing situa- tion meant the making over of the petroleum industry. The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) retained its leadership by ex- panding its facilities both in the manufacture and distribution rapidly enough to meet the insistent demand for greater service. During the past ten years the Stan Oil Company (indiana) Anas grown as the need for its prod- ucts and service has grown. This ever-increasing demand for petro- Jeum products has made it necessary for the Standard Oil Company indiana) to expand its facilities to an extraordinary degree. Yet, with its makiplics facilities, the Com- pany finds that all its energies are ‘absorbed in meeting the demand for its products from 30 million people in the ten Middle Western States it serves, ; While proud of th vit it has} a dered in the ‘st Standard Oil of 1923 ond the keart to cone. hs ¥ 910 S.
