PAPER CRISIS IS
DUE LATE IN OCTOBER

Washington.-The crisis in
the news-print paper situation,
which already has cut down
newspaper profits enormously,
will not be reached till late in
October, when contracts come
up for renewal, according to re-
ports received from many
sources by the federal trade
commission. The presidential
election. together with the Eur
opean war, is expected TO in
crease an already unparalleled de-
mand for news-print. which
manufacturers tell the trade
commission they will hardly be
able to meet.
The trade commissions re-
port on its investigation of news
print prices. it was announced,
would be published Lot later
than October /.
The great question in decid-
ing whether there has been col
fusion among the manufacturers
to boost prices unduly is said
% Re whether the increased de
mand for paper has been entire
t. disproportionate 10 the in
creased production. Manufac-
turers claim hat publishers ar
using 20 per cent more paper
than ever before.
None of the substitutes for
pulp recently suggested $ com
mercially- feasible, according to
officials Of the various bureaus
interested. Cotton stalks most
frequently mentioned, would be
prohibitively expensive to COL
,ect, they say.

THE LIVING FOR A LIFE.

1t might not be polite to say
that many Of us striving too
hard to make living, but doubt
less it is true. VIII many Of
us the living is the most import
ant thought that originates III
our mind. We toll, worry and
complain to such an extent that
we do not fully enjoy the living
we get.
1t IS important that we earn
and receive a living commensu-
rate with our existence. The
head of a family feels the re-
sponsibility for those depend
ent upon him. To be negligent
or indolent in this, would of
course be objectionable. But
what is fully as important as
making a living is making a life.
Doubtless if we would give
more time to enjoying the liv-
ing we would find that what we
produce is far more efficient in
providing the. comforts Of life
than we supposed. If we would
divide our attention with ways
and means of living we would
find that even a small income
from the farm may afford a
comfortable living and a happy
home. A large income may not
do this. Wealth, as important
as it is, does not afford pleasure
and comfort unless it contri-
butes to make a life. It is char
acter that gives hope, aspiration
and contentment.
The Savior of men said: Il
came that we might have life
and that you might have it
more abundantly." A useful
life, is better than riches. Broad
acres, "catlle on thousand hills"
are not comparable to the plea
sure Of living.
In a litA1al sense we should
take thd( IT for the morrow"
bet are we ustifiable in dwarf
ed mental and physical powers
simply that we may earn more?
Isn't a life greater than living?
Then why not make a home
on the farm and enjoy life?
Why not make life paramount?
This will insure the living
Farm and Ranch.
