Food Situation In Capital PitifuI.
The first report to the Red Cross on
the relief situation in Mexico City
came from Charles J. O'COnnor, the
American agent who got through the
Carranza and Zapata lines and entered
the capital with American Consul
General Shanklin last Wednesday.
O'Connor described the food situa
tion as exceedingly pitiful." He had
been told, he said, the plight of non
combatants in small cities near the
capital is even worse than in Mexicd
City itself.
On July 1, the day HIS message was
sent by a courier to Pachuca, he was
trying to arrange transportation fol-
relief supplies from Vera Cruz. O'Con
nor and Shanklin took into the city a
quantity of the Red Cross medical re
lief supplies.
A message from the Brazilian min
lister said there was no prospect of a
pacific settlement between General
Gonzales, commanding the Carranza
attackers, and the Zapata troops de

it has been reported that fighting has
been renewed
The advices from O'Connor added
that the situation is growing worse
rapidly" Corn is very scarce, lie re
ported. This years planting in the
grain districts is estimated at from
10 to so per cent. The relief problem
is vast"

Urges Raise in subscription Price.

''Newspapers of the United States
do not get enough money in subscrip-
tons, said c.. A Booth of Madison in
an address before the conference OF
newspaper publishers and printers held
at Madison recently. He showed that
with the high cost of production and
material, both daily and weekly papers
were losing money in furnishing papers
at the rates now charged. He advo-
Gated raise in subscription rates, and
his position was we'll received by more
than 100 publishers in attendance.
Subscription rates on both daily and
weekly papers are not high enough to
paw for the cost of production, said
Mr.. Booth ''Many papers are operat-
ing at loss. When the price OF print
paper alone is taken into consideration
it can be seen that nothing can be made
by delivering a paper at So year. One
Chicago paper has given me state
ment which shows that each subscriber
gets from $50 to 100 pounds OF print
paper a wear and this costs $3.50. Add
to this 81 80 per year for postal charges
and any one can see that there is a
loss. Metropolitan papers cannot al
ford to put their periodicals into HANDS
of subscribers for less than 81 year,
Magazines which are now selling for
five cents per copy cost them from
seven to nine cents to print.
Mr.. Booth told the publishers OF
weekly papers that the price Of their
publications should be raised $1.5 tC
| 50 per year.

AN INTERESTING analysis of Mr.. Bry-
ans position is given by the Washing
ton correspondent of the New York
Evening Mail, who says that Mr.: Bry-
an, as a member of the Wilson cabinet,
"could not and did not abandon his de-
sire to be at the front, to formulate
party opinion and policy rather than to
agree to it. Except to those who un-
derstood Bryan thoroughly, the desire
was cleverly suppressed, but the rest
lessness of the man during the past
vear-his evident determination not to
take too much responsibility before the
country for Wilson's acts-revealed to
his intimates return of the old time
fire and zeal to occupy the center OF
the stage. The opportunity presented
bv the German complications was too
great to lose. The lure of new ma
tional leadership was beyond his power
to resist"

A National Greed.

The Chicago Herald suggests the fol-
lowing as a National Greed by which
the men, women and children Of Amer
icarmay affirm their Americanism:
| believe in the United States, one
and indivisible; in her mission as the
champion of humanity the friend
of the weak and distressed; IN the sin
gleness, dignity and inviolabIllity OF
American citizenship; in the validity OF
our national traditions; in peace with
honor; in friendship with all nations
that respect our rights; in entangllng
alliances with none; in reasonable pre-
parations for national defense by sea
and land; in Sinking no sacrifice need
ed to hand down to the future the
priceless treasures bequeathed to US by
the past; in the necessity OF keeping
the western hemisphere free from the
intrusions of European institutions ana
ambitions; in the capacity OF free men
for self-government; in the love OF
home and country; and in the untiInch-
ing resolution that government or the
people, for the people by the people
shall not perish from the earth.

Scientific Baby-Culture.

The National Children's Bureau has
issued a book of eighty-seven pages,
entitled Infants Care, which | wish
could be placed in the home of every
Young mother and eXpectant mother IN
the state of Wisconsin. If the prac-
teal information the book contains
were understood. and the directions
were followed by Wisconsin mothers,
hundreds of babes doomed to die under
present conditions would be saved. The
government went to the expense of
preparing, printing and distributing
this book for the sake of saving babies.
And babies are dying right along on
account of the need of such informa-
ton on the part of mothers. Obvious
lv, information like this c~nnot be de-
livered by shotgun methods. The gov
eminent cannot send out one hundred
of these bulletins Unfortunately, In
order to reach one mother, here and
there. who will absorb the benefit.
Approaching the difficulty of effec-
tive and economical distribution, and
at the same time knowing the desire of
mothers for the information, the Uni
versity Extension Health instruction
Bureau has made arrangements with
the 10OSrdl bureau W SSCuIC a lAlAiAISO
number of copies for Wisconsin moth
ers who desire to know more about
modern agriculture, as understood by
specialists in this subject. The regular
cost of the book is fifteen cents. Were
it issued by a commercial publisher 1t
would sell for several times that
amount. Our allotment, as long as 1T
lasts, will be delivered at no cost what
ever to the recipient beyond sending a
post card to this Office.
To indicate how practical and val
liable this book is, | shall list briefly
some of the topics discussed: Nursery;
clothes with patterns and illustrations;
airing; care of babies; baths; toys:
what and how to feed, and how to pre-
pare artificial food; habits; training
and discipline; common disorders and
contagious diseases; cooking recipes for
older children. ETC., etc.
In addition to individual mothers and
fathers who have the responsibility and
natural desire to bring up their own
children to the best of their ability,
this book will appeal to nurses, physi-
clans, club women, librarians. and 9TH
ers who are concerned with the fright
full slaughter of the innocents.
If you wish to receive free copy OF
this book, address post card to the

SENATOR Jim HAM LEWIS of

SENATOR jim HAM LEWIS of Illinois
proposes to fill the aching void in the
federal treasury by an issue of bonds
to the tune of five hundred millions.
This is favorite method of the demo
Gratis when confronted by a deficit; and
a deficit is always a natural accompanl-
ment of democratic administration.
Cleveland had one and he issued bonds.
But jim Ham scheme goes much fur
Their. He wants to increase the ma
tionaI debt by so per cent, and he sug,,
gests that the bonds be issued in small
denominations, that they be purchased
by the people generally, and that the
proceeds, after paying off the demo-
cratic deficit, shall be used in some un-
defined manner for putting the people
who are now jobless to work. AS we
understood it, Jim Hams plan is for
the people to lift themselves out Of the
slough by their bootstraps. -Watertown

SAY, do you know you have q good
governor? You, Mr.. Taxpayer, appre-
ciate that fact? Do you realize that
he is watching governmental expenses
as closely as you watch your own?
That he is determined to keep them
down to the point where they will
measure up to the requirements of
business administration? And do you
know that certain assemblymen and
senators are doing everything they can
to prevent your governor from keeping
his pledge to you just for the sake of
proving that their faction was not eX
travagant when it's extravaganza be-
came so intolerable you were forced to
vote them out of power? Gov. Phillip
is working overtime to reduce the cost
of government, and his enemies in the
legislature are doing the same to in
crease it. They think they are hidden
behind the veil of approval thrown over
their acts by the so-called progressive
press which is ever on the alert to balk
every scheme put forth to lessen public
burdens, however meritorious the
scheme may be- Fine spun theories OF
taxation have been advanced, it is true,
but no theory has yet been brought
forth to relieve the home owner and
farmer. The governor sees plainly
that the tax commission is not only
costly; it is positively harmful, because
it wastes its time developing new tax
laws which when tried are more OBJ
noxious than those they are designed
to supercede. -Stoughton Hub.

CHICAGO's great automobile speed
way at Broadview, west of the city, IS
practically completed. In an incred-
ibly short time since the first of May
this gigantic undertaking, the largest
in point of thrills and general interest
since the Worlds Fair, has been rush
ed through by huge stats of wOrkmen
and is now ready for the speed demons
trial spins preliminary to the city's
500-mile auto derby race to be run on
June &C. The track, a monster oval
two miles round, contains in itself
nearly 10000 feet of lumber. 1t is
construed entirely of planks set on
edge, the speedway being sharply in
clined at either end to offset the ter
rife impact of the racers, which would
otherwise force them completely Oft
the runway. In addition to the track
itself there is monster equipment OF
grandstands, club houses, judges stands,
hospitals, telephone and water sys-
TENS, lunch rooms and railway with
station. All the roads leading to the
grounds have been improved with
crushed rock and oil for the benefit of
those who will go to the race by auto
mobile.

OF COURSE the present legislature

OF COURSE the present legislature
did NOT indorse the nonsense of a min
imum wage for women over Is years of
age. Wages should be, governed oy
the natural law of supply and demand,
not by the arbitrary notions OF theoriz-
ing legislators. The most the state
should do for women, as well as men,
is to demand that work be not hurttul
physically, mentally or morally. This
means that hours should not be exces-
sive, work dangerous, environment IN
sanitary or the labor of harmful ma
ture because of it's heaviness. When
the state has looked to these points, it
has done all that humanity demands. =
Madison Democrat.

THE figures showing that there are
over 10000, 900 men actually engaged
in the present European war are enough
to designate the struggle as the world
war. Some would claim even larger
figures by making the classification in
clude the entire population of the ma
tions at war which would amount to
over two thirds of the population of the
globe. The amount Of money neces-
sary to carry on this war is enormous
even in the pay of the soldiers engaged.
In this connection it is interesting to
note some information as to the pay of
the soldiers in several countries now at
war as compared with the pay of
American soldiers The Russian SOL
der is the poorest paid in the world. A
private in the ranks of the army of the
car gets 81 year, compared to the
$3.50 to $500 the United States pays it's
men of the ranks. England pays its
private soldiers 500 a year; Germany,
$38; Austria, So; Italy, $40; France,
$40. These figures are for whole
year and represent the total amount of
cash paid the fighting men in that
period.

Rank grass and wet green clover or
alfalfa are likely to cause bloat in cat
tie. Bloat may be avoided if right pre-
cautions are taken, says DR.. A: 5.
Alexander of the College of Agricul-
ture of the University of Wisconsin.
Here are few of them:
Gradually change cows from winter
grain and hay rations to fresh pastures
and meadows.
Prevent indigestion, because indiges-
ton is the direct cause of bloat.
Feed COWS their usual ration of dry
hay and grain before turning them out
to pasture.
Keep cows off clover and alfalfa
fields until dew or rain has dried OFT,
and never turn them on such fields on
moisture-laden, ''muggy" days.
Give cattle access to mixture OF
salt and Stacked lime.
Visit pastures frequently in early
summer and, if possible, take along
proper remedies and instruments for
relieving bad cases of bloat.
