"FOOLISH TRADING"

AS producers and builders, the
American people excel all previous
civilization and we are a present day
marvel in business efficiency, out in
dealing with foreign countries we
are a sorry lot of traders. Ever
since William Penn traded with the
Indians a handful of trinkets for
what is now the state of Pennsylva-
MIA, the American people have been
selling their birthright to foreign
ers for a mess of pottage so to speak.
We export over S50,000y000 of cat
tie and their products per annum
which feeds the nations of Europe;
and our American heiresses spend
similar sum in buying and maintain
ing counts, dukes and titled peer
ages These foreign noblemen are as
a rule, absolutely worthless-in fact
become a perpetual liability-for it
costs more money to operate and
keep them in repair than it does
to run our cotton mills. European
royalty puts the black sheep of its
families on the block and our rich
American girls buy them and we Writ
ually exchanged railroads, wheat
fields and millions of dollars worth
of products of farm mine and factory

WHY GOV. M'GOVERN.
ON Milwaukee Journal.

From Milwaukee Journal.
During his two t4ms in office,
Gov. M'Govern has made some i'll
advised appointments, butsin select
ing George F. O'Connor of Eagle
River as a member of the state for
esTy board he has clearly cutdone
himself in this respect.
The governor states that he deem
ed it wise to give the forest re
serve territory representation upon
the board. Was it wise, however, to
choose as a representative of that
section, CT OF any other part Of the
state, man who has lorg been ac-
tive and persistent in opposing the
work Of which the board is in
charge? Was it wise to appoint
upon the board a man who through
cut the last session of the legislature
was the paid lobbyist Of the opposi--
ton to state forestry?
1t certainly was not wise from the
standpoint CT public policy. 1t is
very much On a par, as a matter OF
fact, with president appointing a
man lkie Ballinger ON conservation
commission.
81 assumed the governor is quot
ed as saying, that Mr.. O'Connor
was in sympathy with extension OF
the forestry policy" Why did he
assume this? How could he assume
this? Nothing in connection with
the last session Of the legislature
was more wider known than the ac-
tvity Of Mr.. O'Connor, as a paid
lobbyist, against that same forestry
policy.
Gov. McGoyern appointed Mr. o.
Conner without ascertaining whether
the member thus supplanted was will
ing to serve and without giving him
any notice of any kind. Why this
appointment? Why this haste?

CHRISTIANITY STANDS FOR LOVE

If this war is to teach us anything,
it is this-how very practical Chris
tianity is. The one thing that Chris
tianity stands for is Love the Faith.
erhood of God and the Brotherhood
of man as we are told sLove is the
fulfillment of the law
Christ commanded Thou shalt
love the Lord thy God with all thy
heart, and with all thy soul and with
all thy mind. This is the first and
great commandment and the second
is like unto it: Thou shalt love thy
neighbor as myself. On these two
commandments hang all the Law and
the Prophets
If the people of the world had been
learning this lesson of love. would
this war be possible? 1t is only the
natural result of the hatred and jeal-
ousy that people have been harboring
for many years.
Christ tried so hard to teach man-
kind this lesson Of love to save us
from just such things as war. How
plainly He said, Love your enemies.
do good to them that hate YOU" but
if We cannot learn it from His teach
ing and example, we must learn it
from sad experiences that come as
a natural result Of unrighteousness
THE work of righteousness is peace,
and the effect OF Righteousness, quiet
ness and assurances forever Right
eousness must precede peace.
1t is am unfailing law that we
get out of life what we give to it.
Give Love and Love to your life
Will flow" Can't we wake I'D to
realities and begin to live the true
Christian life? 1t matters not wheth-
er we call ourselves Methodist. Ro-
man Catholic, Christian Scientist or
what not, let US be Christians and
fill our lives with love God is love
and the more of love we get in our
lives the more of God we have.
Instead of criticising the nations
tor their actions, let us look into
Dur lives, both individual and nation
Il, and see how We are tending. AL

KNOW that the Good is Omnipotent
md make ourselves at one with the
Good. Hear no evil. see no eyiI.and |
speak no evil" and see how soon |

First Silo Built in Michigan in 1875

States

It is claimed that the first silo in
the United States was built in Mich
igan in 1875, but, it was not until
some years later that they came into
any market use, even in the bets
dairy districts. It is only within the
last three or four years that their
full practice and economic advant--
age was appreciated.
Of course no claim is made for
complete accuracy but the methods
followed warrant the belief that the
figures presented may be accepted
as fairly typical of the present state
of silo development. The total num-

is GUILTY OF FORGERY
Young Man of junction City Bound
Over to the Circuit Court.

From Stevens Point Daily Journal
In the county court Edward Gin
gle, a young man who passed his
twenty-first birthday last month, son
of Joseph Gingle, who lives near
Junction City, pleaded guilty to the
crime of forgery and was bound over
bonds were fixed at $3.50, in default
of which he was taken to Jail. His
mother was an interested and sor--
roWful witness of the proceedings
in court and out in the corridor, when
the sheriff was taking her boy, her
Eddie to Jail, with tears streaming
down her cheeks, she kissed him
good bye. In court one witnesses
many sad scenes, and this was one
of them.
Last Wednesday the young man
took from his fathers house an or
der ON State Bank of junction City,
payable to his father, for $14.18. He
wrote the name Of his father on the
order and had it cashed at the sa--
loon of David Heise at the Junction
and it was the latter who made the
complaint in the case.
AS soon as Judge Park completes
the WauShara term of court the
young man will go before him and
receive sentence. An effort will be
made at that time to have him plac-
ed on parole.

HOUSEWIVES SHOULD BUY
MUTTON IN QUARTERS

WASHINGTON, D. c.. Eert. "a.
Food specialists of the DeFartment
of Agriculture who HAY been inVes-
tigating the subject find that there
is a wide variation in the prices ask
ed for lamb and mutton in different
cities and towns and even in differ
ent butcher shops in the same local.
ity. In many places the prices asked
by the pound for these foods closely
approach those asked for beef and
pork. In other places, owing to con
ditions Of local supply, there is such
a price difference between mutton
and beef as to make mutton rela-
lively cheap fcod. The specialists Of
the Department of Agriculture find
that in nuTitive value and digestibil-
ity mutton is practically interchange
able with beef. The waste is about
the same percentage, although mutt
ton has a slight advantage over
beef in containing less water.
In many markets, where the pound
price of mutton and lamb is high.
careful shoppers will find that they
can obtain this form Of meat very
much lower by buying hind quarters
or half carcasses instead of buying
chops and rcasts separately by the
pound. In the case of hind quarter
the chops can be cut off and served
for one meal and the roast will serve
for another meal. In this way the
family frequently will obtain chops att
a price per pound lower than that
asked for roast alone by the pound.
Where a half carcass is bought, in
addition to the chops and roaste, the
family will have a fore quarter and
meat for stewing. The sheep is very
for purchase III this way |
rs it is small and can be kept in
IN ordinary refrigerator. Frequently |
antilles combine and buy whole |
;arcalss ard divide it, and in this |
,ase get still better prices and OBJ
ain expensive cuts at a. low aver |
lge per pound. The specialists of the
Department advise women who find
he cost Of other meats oppressive,
o Investigate these quantity buying
and also to look into the
differences in prices charged for
amb and mutton by different re-
alters in their neighborhoods.

The Work a Watch Does

Out of sight, out of mind, is par
ticularly true in regard to the mech
anism Of. a watch, and even those
interested in mechanical matters sell
dom consider the amount of work
performed by this useful little piece
of machinery. Take the balance wheel
for example. In the average watch
this vibrates 300 times a minute, 49,
900 times each hour, 432, 900 times a
day and ISL, 788 900 times a year
AS each vibration covers about one
and a half revolutions, the shaft ON
which the balance wheel is mounted
makes 236. $50 900 revoIutiors in it's
bearings each year. Compare this
with modern locomotive with z
foot drivers, which would have to
run 985jS24 miles TO make an equal
number Of revolutions; and, running
at the rate of a mile minute, With
out stopping, it would take 6S3 days,
Or nearly two years for the axle of
the drive wheel o. the locomotive 10
make as many revolutions as the
balance wheel shaft of the watch
does in one year, and it would cover
1 distance of over 50 times around
he world.

that means a deepening and stren--
gthening of home ties and those of
LEGALITY, both OF which are greatly
needed in America rural life.
But for practical reasons as well
as sentimental il is wise to bestow
name upon the farm. No self-re-
speeding man would give good
name TO his farm and then keep the
farm in poor condition The sense
of pride would prompt any man to
do his level best. That would mean
better cultivation, house and barn
painted, fences in good condition, bet
ter stock and better crops, and more
attractive ppearance Within and
without the dwelling. There is scarce
ly farm. however, situated, that
some appropriate name may not be
given it. Landist ape, spring .clump
Of trees, position, historic associa--
tons are among the many things
that may suggest the name. And
always remember this, that it lis
with the farmer more than anyone
else, rests the solution of the prob
lem OF arresting the drift eity-wards.
An attractive home. a home that has
distinctiveness about it, goes a
eng way towards the solution.

GOOD ROADS OF GREAT VALUE,

The question of good roads is one
of untold Importance. 1t has been
considered, from time to time, by the
press, but only in a fragmentary way,
and never as it has really mer ted. 1t
is not affirming too much to say
that the bad condition of the roads
entail a heavier burden on the farm
ing community than do all the taxes
of county and state combined. The
waste of time the wear and tear of
wagons the excessive work of hor-
ses, the loss of opportunity to take
advantage of high markets, and the
cost to keep the roads even i'm their
present condition, are appalling to
consider. But the farmer is not the
only loser. The manufacturer, the
and in fact every class
are affected by bda country roads.
