That the state will seek to have
the. federal government turn over
at least some of the war proper-
ties to the state for public uses
is a foregone conclusion.
A question may arise if camp-
sites for which the needed area
obtained in part by condemnation
could be diverted to new purpos-
es. There may also be some con-
flict with reported understandings
that the government will give per-
sons whose property went into
war projects, opportunity to buy
back at the pric^gthe government
pai'd, or at least give the former
owners some preferential right to
re-acquire the property.

how to leave the camp. Soon,
she knew, would come her orders

be a long and uncomfortable trip
across the country to San Fran-

haps a long wait.
If she were lucky she'd get on

not, she’d have that interminable
boat ride over the biggest ocean
in the world.
Maybe she would, not get there
before Jerry completed his

This question was settled very
quickly by a letter from Jerry,

completely occupied that she had
little ^me to think, little time
even to write a few letters.
In addition to her studies, she
had field work that was exhaust-

rounding fields with other nurses
and went through maneuvers sim-
ulating real battle conditions.
"And pretty real they pre, too!"
Laura wrote to Jerry intone short

Perhaps it was because Texas
acted ao early in ths matter that
the state legislation on the topic
has been forgotten.
Among the provisions are:

“And then,” she thought,

She turned out the light, opened
the window, and got into -toed.
"1 wonder if I’ll ever see
again," she thought', before
I drifted off to sleep.
I* | .The next mof-ning, Laura had
to lake her to Bowman Field, the first two weelts tfr
Kentucky, for her month's train- training> she waa 8Orc anfl Iame
mg for lier new work.
The train was.crowded, but she
did finally get a ^>lace at one of
the little writing tables in the
lounge car, where she wrote her
mother and father the new turn
of events. . She found herself I week dki h k
leaving Washington the^next day
and that- she had no idea where
she, could reach him after that.
“I could find out, of course, she
told herself, "by making inquiries
at headquarters. Later, -maybe I
will. I don't know ’if I should,
bitt—" . , • '
Then some soldiers spoke to her,
and she began to talk to them.
The train wap full of service men
who wanted to. talk, especially to
an attractive girl. For the rest of
the journey, Laura enjoyed her-
self, and had not a moment for
her own private thoughts — of
Jerry, or Bob Beston.

Other experts appearing at
the conference told of other ad-
vancements in farming which • ■
may revolutionize this way of (
making a living. The war. with
its resultant shortage of labor,"
has forced farmers to use more
and improved machinery, they '
said. The one-man hay baler
was cited as an example. In this •
case, a self-ptopelled machine
ambles over the meadow, pick-
ing up the hay and baling it au- •
tomatically. Sometimes a trail-
er is hooked on to pick up the ,
bales and haul them to the barn.
Cotton stripping machines are
already in use in northwest
Texas, stripping the plants of
bolls. The farmer gets a lower
price for his cotton, but the
small amount of labor needed,
as compared to handpicking ■
more than makes up for the
^difference. Com picking ma-
chines are also in use, and
through the rice belt, combines
similar to those in use for years •
in-the wheat belt, are now on the
ed and farmers everywhere are
looking for other machines to
replace their labor which went
to war. Just what effect all
these labor sailing devices will
have on employment after the
war remains to be seen. —

land can be returned to pro-
ductivity, simply by letting it
go idle for a few years and used
as pastime was refuted by the
experts. They said that if a
pasture is to be profitable, it
must be fertilized and mowed.
Legumes, fertilized with phos-
phate, grown on the land and
turned under, will greatly io-
