Mar Looms
u. Ahead Of Us.

1t Is fact!
Grim war confronts US.
And the staging is set for the
gentle springtime, when the dais-
les bloom and the silver throated
birds break forth in song.
And It will be 4 battle royal.
The American Fashion Lea
que has decreed that the shirt
waist must 60.
It is to be a thing of the past,
must be seen no more.
AT least such is the dictum OF
the Fashion League.
But American womanhood is
up in arms and is girding for
the fray.
Womanhood says NO!
The shirtwaist is dear to the
feminine heart, and that which
appeals to the feminine heart is
right, must be right, we men de-
clare it to be right, and it must
prevail.
Down with the League!
Into the discard with the czars
of fashion.
Perish the brain which would
abolish the shirtwaist!
For the shirtwaist is useful, it
is simple, it is geuteel, it is cas-
ily washed, and it is cool.
It must not fall at the hands
of a ruthless horde of brainless
czars of fashion whose Gods are
gold and a mirror.
The enemy must be routed, put
to fight, exterminated. -
And we herewith enlist under
the banner of womauhood and
offer ourself a willing sacrifice
that the shirtwaist may be saved.
And we call upon all men to
come forward and smite the
enemy of womanhood.
Beauty is in distress, and
beauty must be saved.
Long live glorious woman!
And long live the shirtwaist.

We want no war with that
country, and yet the American
patience has about reached the
breaking point.
Property of Americans is be-

commerce is at a standstill, and
American business interests are

There is no established govern

Military bandits are in CONTROL
and honor has been kicked into

Insults are being heaped upon
our troops at the border and

Light in the Horizon.

The United States is slowly
but surely emerging from a per-
iod of keen financial stringency
and commercial unrest.
It has been felt by all classes
of people, in every strata OF
society.
But light at last is showing in
the distance, and relief is in
sight.
But it will require yet a little
more patience on the part of the
people, and a united effort and
determination wrest prosperity
from chaos.
Those who expect to see an in
slant transformation from strin-
gency to boundless wealth will
of course meet with disappoint-
ment.
But commercial and financial
experts are all agreed that the
next six months will see the
United States in the midst of an
era of unprecedented prosperity.
In the meantime let us be pa
tient, and work.

FURNISH SWINE PURE WATER
Hogs Do Not Drink Out Of Filthy
Pools as Matter Of choice-ln-
diana Incident ls Related.

We have heard men argue that hogs
do not require pure water since they
exhibit their disregard in this matter
by commonly drinking out of filthy
pools. 1t is not improbable that a hog
herd may become so degenerate
In its habits as to pay no attention
to the supply Of their drinking water.
But this degeneracy, or what else you
may name 1t, Is not matter of en-
vironment. says writer in Farmers
Review. Hogs do not differ from 9TH
er animals in adapting themselves to
their surroundings. In fact 1t is one
of the laws of nature that species
which can best adapt itself to varying
conditions stands the best chance to
survive. The hog accepts filthy water
when there is nothing better. After a
while he loses his taste for pure water.
Our remarks on this subject are
prompted by the following incident re-
ported by one of our Indiana readers:
This man had been in the habit OF al
lowing his herd of hogs to secure wa
ter from a more or less muddy creek.
On account of the prevalence of dis
ease on farm above him he decided
to provide water for the herd with a
hog fountain. In hauling the fountain
to It's position In the pasture he had
to cross the creek and in getting to
this point a number of hogs out OF
curiosity had followed. They contin-
ued to follow him across the creek
and to the final location Of the foun-
tain, where they drank to their full
when the water was turned into the
drinking placess

should be given as a thick slop.
Brood sows weighing from 800 to
$50 pounds usually can be kept on
one of the above rations for about
$3.50 month.
II you live in section where these
can be grown, sugar beets or giant
half-sugar mangels may be used to
form the bulky portion Of the ration
and to replace the bran. The sugar
beets or mangels can be cut up and

middlings and other meal made into

vine make excellent winter feed for
swine. They can be stacked In or
