Have You Named Your Farm7

The movement To have every Am
erican farmer select a name for his
farm and use the name as trade
mark, is meeting with great success
in some parts of the country. Many
of our exchanges have published lists
of the names selected for the farms
Of their neighborhoods, the publica-
tion acting as II sort of u patent or
copyright. II has been said by some
minimizing persons that the plan Is
not American, but n little reflection
will convince anyone that the point
is not well taken. Washington called
his home mt. Vernon" jefferson,
the great democrat, named his place
Monticello" and any schoolboy can
give you n dozen other instances.
So name your farm and put the
name out where everyone can see it,.
Make il n trade mark. A we'll known.
advertised trade mark is worth thou
sands of dollars to the owner. Your
farm and its products are your
stock in trade. Name them and you
have added real hard cash value 10
everything you sell. Choose II name
well suited to surroundings, n name
that will tell in its very sound some
of the characteristics of your bust
ness home: then come to Us and have
lctterheads made for your CORE
spOndence with the name of your
farm on them and your name and
your wife's name and your postoffice
address beneath. OF course you want
your wifc's name on your stationery.
She is your partner and the hest and
the truest. and the hardest working,
and the most interested party in the
whole concern. Once You were glad
to get the chance to endow her with
all your worldly goods. now make
your promise real. Here's how your
letterhend might look:

"Uncls Billy" Became Of the Goshen.
(lnd.) Democrat, in speaking about
unhappy marriages, says;
'Nine-tenths Of the unhappy mar
riages are the result Of green human
calves being allowed to run at large
in society pastures without yokes.
"They marry ard have children be-
fore they have mustachcs. They are
the fathers of twins before they have
two pair Of pants, and the little girls
they marry are old before they are
out Of their teens. Occasionally one
of these gosling marriages turns out
all right, but it is clear ease of luck
II there was a new law against young
galoots sparkling and marrying before
they have cut their eye teeth, We
suppose they would evade it in some
way, but there ought to be sentiment
against il. II is time enough for these
bantams to think Of minding a pullet
when they have raised enough money
to buy bundle of laths to build hen
house. But they see girl who looks
cunning, and they are afraid there is
no, going to be enough to 20 around,
and then they begin to get their work
in real spry, and before they are
aware of the sanctity of the marriage
relation they are hitched for life. and
before they own cook stove or bed
stead they have to get up in the night
and go after u doctor, so frightened
that they run thmselves out Of
breath and abuse the doctor because
he does not run too; and when the
doctor gets there, there is not enough
linen in the house to wrap up n doll

THE GERMAN WAR LONAS.

The cable announced recently that
the subscriptions paid in cash" on
the third German war loan were TO-
452,600,000 marks, or S6 per cent,
while the amounts advanced by the
loaning institutions were 630,700,000.
The percentage in cash and the num-
Der of subscriptions are larger for
each loan, and are admirable evidences
of the universally of the German SEN
timent in support of the German
cause. The separate subscriptions for
the third loan were 3,551,746, for the
second 1851 900, for the first 1.177,-
1886. The number of small subscrip-
tions also is constantly larger. Thus
the applications for 1000 marks or
less for the third loan are 2,9S3,79
for the second, 2,1l3, 220, for the first
926,059. In his speech on the third
German war loan DR.. Helefferich
touched upon this point thus:
At the time of the first important
payments on the second war loan the
loans of our war institutions exceed
ed the sum of 1,500,00,000 marks.
Since then this sum has long ago
dropped below one billion marks. Of
the loans mady by the loan institu-
tons not more than $4,000 900 marks

state. where his son Theodore has a
ranch, and where he has been living
for some time. He states that there
is no part of the west that equals this
valley for opportunity in farming and
dairying. He full agrees with US that
it is futile for an attempt To be
made here without stock. the same as
is done in other places. His son at
Kremling sends his cream to the
creamery and gets 81 cents for but
ter fat, and never at any time be-
low 80. This gives him fine week
| ly pay check from ten cows. The
above from the Cortez Journal is
quite correct SO far as dairying is con-
cerned except the statement that but
ter fat is never below 80 cents. We
cannot agree with this as 80 cents is
much higher than the Littleton and
other creameries pay at certain sea
sons of the year, but even then it is
the dairy COW that is bringing in the
money.

Representative N. E. Matthews oil
Ohio, represents one of those numer.
Gus congressional districts in which
the sugar beet industry has made con-
siderable progress. When the Demo
cratic tariff law was passed, many
of the farmers discontinued the rails
ing of sugar beets and some of the
factories closed down. The beginning
of the European war revived the in
dustry. AS an indication of the i'm
portance of this industry to any COM
munity, Mr.. Matthews gives figures
showing that one small factory in
Paulding, o., paid out $302,25O for
a portion of the crop of beets harvest
ed in October of this year. Had the
Democrats accomplished what they
expected with regard to domestic pro-
duction of sugar, this and other fac
tories of similar nature probably
would not have been in operation at
all this year.

Resumption of steamboat travel on
the Danube is an event of much
economic Importance for Germany
and Austria Hungary. That river is
in peace times the great highway for
freight traffic between Rumania and
Bulgaria on the one side and the CEN
trail powers on the other. But river
traffic has been entirely suspended
since the war broke out and this
for two causes. Not only did Serbia
put mines in the river, but the Rus
SLAMS sank several old vessels in the
narrow channel of the Iron Gate just
below the Hungarian frontier. This
wholly stopped the export of grain
from Bulgaria to Germany and the
dual monarchy, and also greatly re-
stricted shipments from Rumania as
well. Rumania produces about $780,
900 tons of grain, of which aboue g.
100000 tons represent corn, 2.300,000
tons wheat and the rest is chiefly
barley. Nearly half of the crop has
hitherto been exported. The amount
now available for export, however, is
believed to be at least 100000 tons.
In Bulgaria according to official es-
Inmates, there will be about 1,0O0,-
600 tons of grain for export from this
years crop. Other foodstuffs can
also be obtained from Bulgaria. Be-
fore its recent period of wars began
the country was exporting about ST.
100000 worth of animals and meats
yearly. The resumption of traffic on
the Danube will also bring Germany
into trade relations with Turkey
again. The Importance to Germany
of this connection is evident from
the fact that Turkeys exports of raw
amounted before the war to
nearly s110,000,0OO, and those of food
products to about s135, 100000.
