ambassador to Austria, by $2.S5.
kerens resigned his post last June
and returned to st. Louis by way of
Washington, putting in a travel ex-

Mr.. Kerens had been granted leave of
absence he was not entitled to any
travel expense at all.
Comptroller Downey overruled this
decision, but declared the ambassador

Green Vegetables.

Plenty of green vegetables are in
the local market and the prices with
in reason with the possible exception
of green cucumbers. These move at
the rate of seventeen cents each,
but the size is fair. Radishes and
onions are favorites and new beets
and turnips the slowest movers.
} In fruits, apples top the market,
extra fine ones bringing five to two
for five cents, and in dozen lots they
are higher than oranges.

IN GOOD SHAPE

We have not had to mobilize armies but we did have to mobilize our finances and put them on a war foot ing, and we have right to feel some complacency and satisfaction at what we have done. Europe was quick in rushing into war, but we have been just as quick in preparing ourselves Tor business contingencies. Our if nancial experts feel that our monetary Notifications will hold against all as saults, and that as the result of the re- cent legislation and of banking precau- tions the country is safe from either strngency or panic, and ready to meet any business demands that may arise.

BETTER DEMAND FOR EGGS
 AND MILK.

The increasing popularity of egg and milk drinks at the cold drink stands of the country should strength en the egg and milk market material ly. The variety of egg drinks at soda fountains has been increased and the demand likewise intensified. Milk also | IS more often used in cold drinks than formerly, In fact, cold drinks are now considered as foods as well as drinks" With eggs and milk the drink is nourishing and appetizing and the popularity of these various egg and milk combinations is likely to prove more popular
 The use of milk and eggs means that our market for these necessary food products will be greater. Already there Is a strong demand for fresh eggs at soda fountains, as well as at hotels, boarding houses, cafes and pri- yate families in cities and towns. In cities dairymen have milk depots and drug stores and markets handle milk to supply their customers, many of whom take bottle of fresh, cool milk for the midday lunch. Busy factory workers and everyday laborers often find bottle of pure milk sufficient for the lunch. And there can be no oues- tion as to the food value of the milk egg combinations, served at many cold drink stands.
 Dairying and poultry raising will offer greater inducement as profitable side lines of farming because of the increased consumption of dairy and poultry products. Every farm near city or small town should have a few cows and few hens and when the de- mands of the family have been sup piled the surplus dairy and poultry products may be marketed at a good proft.-Farm and Ranch.

WAR AND HIGHER PRICES
Jasper in Leslie's,

When things go up there is reason. If there is fine piece of real estate that many persons want, the price is 1 bound to advance. If there is a prize COW or calf at an agricultural exhibit that lot of people would like to buy, 1t will sell at an abnormal price. It is so with everything. It is an old eco homie principle that if the supply is less than the demand, prices will ad- vance and, per contra, if the supply exceeds the demand, prices will drop.
 The war in Europe cut us off from supplies of certain luXuries.and prod ucts in the fabrication of which the old country has enjoyed supremacy. Those who needed these imported pro- ducts naturally hastened to buy as much as they could afford to pay for, as soon as the war broke out. At once, the supply was shortened and, under | the economic rule, l have laid down prices advanced. It is all poppycock for demagogues and te-seeking poli- ticians to pretend that they do not un- derstand the reason for the advance in prices or to pretend to believe that American business men and producers, farmers included, have "conspired" to put them up and "rob the people"
 The American manufacturer who is wide awake should follow MT. Whe- lan's suggestion and get busy, increase his working force, accumulate his out put and be prepared for the tremen- dous demand which must follow. I speak of goods with which the short age, on acco, mt of the cessation of imports, can be met. The moment this situation is fully disclosed, American mel chants will rush orders for goods and prices will begin to ad- vance.

EBERHART TO MAKE THE RACE
Present Incumbent Announces His
Candidacy for the Republican
Nomination for Governor.

Adolph O. Eberhart has announced
his candidacy for the Republican nom
ination for governor of Minnesota.
This will be his third appeal to the
voters of the state, though to be ex-
act if he is elected this time it will
be his fourth term as chief executive.
The first time he became governor by
reason of the death of former Govern
or John A. Johnson. Governor Eber-
hart in his announcement names
George F. Author, his private secre
tary, as his campaign manager and
states that no political headquarters
will be opened. His statement to the
public is brief and simple to degree.
He deplores the attitude of those who
would villify and besmirch the fair
name of the state in their efforts to
unseat him and says his appeal to the
people will be through the medium OF
the primary law and not by way of
convention.
The primary, he says, is the court of
all the people and he will stand or
fall on it's verdict. At later date he
will speak more fully on the issues of
the campaign and announce the things
he stands for.
William E. Lee, choice of the Min
neapolis elimination convention to op-
pose Governor Eberhart, has filed with
Secretary of State Schmahl as can
didate for the Republican nomination
for governor. Mr.. Lee mailed his aft
davit to the secretary of state with a
check for $50, the filing fee. Although
Governor Eberhart announced his can
didacy he did not file.
