FARMERS TAKE OUR AD-
VICE TILL ALL YOUR LAND

The United States Department of
Agriculture, the state boards and
the oXDe1ts all over the country are
urging the farmers of America to
cultivate every available acre dur
ing the coming year. The war in
Europe assures the sale of almost
everything that can be raised. Every
article that is exported to feed the
soldiers and the citizens and the
stockaof Europe means just that
muchs less for home consumption
therefor, even with big crops of
everything, tie prices will be high.
If it is not a, good crop year the
farmer will at least raise enough
for home use and will not have to
pay tie high prices that will pre-,
vail. Utilize every aavailable acre
for grain, grasses and vegetables.
In many sections farmers are urged
to try a double acreage of potatoes.
Ii should not be necessary, under
proper conditions, to import potatoe
into amy agricultural county. Put
| The lens and the turkeys to work
and give them a square deal. Raise
| pigs, cattle and horses i'm as large
numbers as the accommodations OF
! tne farm will Justify and any loss
es that any farmer, planter or rancf
er may have sustained last year
| will be more than made good. The
war in Europe may last for months
or years, but while it continues
there will be an active demand for
everything we produce Should the
VAR end this week the nations en-
gagged will reed all our surplus pro-
duets for a year at least Take our
advice, for once. and do not permit
| good tillable land to lie idle in 191:

Of JOHN STAGER AND
HIS EARTHLY CAREER

Speaking of the death of John
Stager, Extras former citizen, the
Anita Tribune of last week truth
fully says.
While the announcements of the
death of John Stager last Thursday
morning did not come as a complete
surprise to the people of Anita, it
vas quite a shock to his many
friends, for very promising reports
came daily from the sick room.
But John Stager is dead. While
Mr.. Stager never gained fame in
this world as a leader of men, he
did gain the confidence of all who
knew him, for he was a man among
men, and anything that John Stagel
said, could be relied upon to be the
truth and the whole truth. He was
d great lover of his home, and
would spend hours in the house
reading books and his Bible. He
loved the summer time, and vii en-
most of the people of Anita We're
still in bed IN the mornings, Mr.
Stager would be found in his garde.
in which work he took a good deal
Of delight.
But ell that is mortal of John Sta
ger has been laid to rest beneath
the Silent clods of the valley, there
to await the resurrection morn
Would that all men might live as
ciean lives as Mr.. Stager, how nue.
more beautiful this world would be,

OLD LADY FELL
BROKE HIP BONE

Mrs. Henry F'oss one of EXiras
respectable old ladies, while going
to a neighbors ON mission of mer-
cy fell ON a sidewalk and broke a
hip bone. The glare of ice that COW
cred the face of Mother earth, ten,
days ago still holds fast and has
been the cause of many falls. Then
the boys with the coasting sleds
make the walks still more slippery.
Mrs. Foss was passing Mr.. and Mrs.
b. H. Cotton's residence when she
fell and broke the bone. She was
taken to her home ON stretcher,
when after a careful examination
under AN anesthetic it was found
that she had a serious fracture The
bone is set, but her age and her
fleshy condition and her advanced
age is much against quick cure.
But we are all trusting that SHE
will not suffer long and will soon
be out among us again.

OUR MEAT SHORTAGE

Secretary Houston of the United
States Department of Agriculture
declared the short meat supply to
be one of the most serious problems
confronting American agriculture.
Mr.. Houston approved the plan of
cattle raising on large ranches and
declared that no effort would be
spared by the Federal Government
in further increasing production
from this source but insisted that
the proper solution of this problem
depended on an increased interest
| in livestock raising by farmers and
| in a more systematic control and
eradication of hog cholera, cattle
| tick and tuberculosis
| Figures We're quoted from Govern
ment reports, showing that the pro-
duction of meat in the United
States during the past IA years
| had fallen off 5000, 600 pounds
and that the population of the ma
! ton during this time had increased

THE GREAT ADVANCE
.MENT ROAD IMPROVEMENT

Our time is too valuable to waste in
travelling over bad roads
Until we have good roads we will
not have better maarkets.
The cost of good roads is less than
the tax Of bad ones.
Out of the mud hole and on to the
pike should be your slogan.
Fortune lives on am improved high
way; misfortune ON poor one.
The growth of any community is de.
pendent upon good roads.
Happiness contentment, and pros
perity don't go with bad roads.
Even heathen countries realize the
value of good highways.
Mud holes are civilization's greatest
parasites. Abolish them.
Unto another generation the benefit
Of good roads will extend.
Do deeds that will live after YOU.
