Owners of vacant lots In the Greater

Those courts are kept Tor the exclusive
use of the club members.
Other owners are renting out their
courts to the first corners, giving sea-

WAR ORDER PROSPERITY.

According to the Iron Age the tom
mage of untitled orderers on the books
of the United States steel corporation.
Dec. 81, 1912, was 7,932,164. We were
then operating under a protective tar
if law, and the country was normally
prosperous. The following year the
democrats were engaged in tariff
wrecking and the tariff for less than
revenue" law went into effect October
18th. On Dec. 81, 1918, the tonnage OF
untitled orders on the books of the U.
S. steel had sunk to 4,2S2,10S. BY
Dec. 81, 1914, it had dwindled to 3.
S36,643 tons, or not quite half that of
Dec. 81, 1912. BY Dec. 81, 1915, the in
dustry had picked up again. the tom
mage of untitled orders on the books
of the company being 7,S06,220. On
June 30, 1916. it had risen to $780,
45S tons.
What has caused this remarkable in
crease? During the IL months ended
May, 1915, iron and steel exports to-
tailed 1,65O,27O tons; for the IL months
ended May, 1916, they jumped to d.
334,511 tons. Figures issued by the
department of commerce tell us that
the total value of our steel and iron
exports for the fiscal year 1918 was
1905 100000. For the fiscal year 1914
it fell to $251 .OOO, 900; for 1915 to
1926 ,OOO,O while for the ~ months
ended June 80, 1916, exports Of iron
and steel reached the enormous value
of 1921, 100000. Metal working ma
chinery alone advanced from $4,000
1000 in 1914 to $61 100000 in 1916; ''all
|,other manufactures of iron and steel, i"
from SIS 100000 in 1914 to $1S9 100000
In 1916. Under this classification was
aftfully concealed by the department
[of commerce the vast quantity of shell

the allies. What man of any common

vince him that ours has been war

Sanitary Methods and Advertising.

The food producer or distributor
who does not use sanitary methods
would better not advertise. The wri-
ter taking railroad journey the other
day, passed certain building with a
large sign showing that a certain
make of bread was manufactured
there. The building was Imprinted,
surrounded by litter. AS most PEG.
pie would conclude that the interior
was similar, this Advertising was
worse than useless. .'
The unsanitary food producer or
retailer usually realizes that he would
not better attract the wide attention
that results from advertising. Con-
yersely. the sanitary food producer
or food distributor cannot afford not
to advertise. 1t costs little more
to do business in a strictly clearly
way. But the cost can be made up by
public attention and In
|creasing sales.
The thought OF dirt in connection
with eating is repulsive. The seller
of neatly put up food will find that
cleanliness is the best talking point
there is. If you can get it into the
public mind that you are constantly
taking pains to keep food products
clean, you will get the enthusiasts

modern spirit.

Atlantic News-Telegraph: This pa
per is not particularly. interested in
the personal habits of the candidates

kinds of Intoxicating liquors it fs no

plays poker it is not more than Mere
dith does. The personal habits of the
candidates were dragged into this con.
der the defeat for which Harding was
in part responsible. 1t has been a
dirty and contemplate campaign on
the part of Meredith's principal sup
porter.
The thing this paper in common
with with thousands of men in this
state, protests, is the attempt to make
saint of Meredith and demon Of
Harding, when. as a matter of fact,
Harding's personal habits are cleaner
by far than Meredith's. 1t protests
the damnable hypocrisy of the cam
paign made against Harding and the
acceptance of it without protest by
Meredith when he knows that he is
not in a single particular any better
than Harding and that by, his silence
he is particeps criminis in as foul a
conspiracy as was ever attempted IN
this state to blast the reputation and
drive out of political life man who
is in every particular as good as the
man in whose behalf the conspiracy
was concocted.
=. 1t protests the dragging in of the
church in an effort to bolster up this
conspiracy. 1t protests in its own
name and in the name of thousands
OF others the effect this campaign is
to hereafter have in whatever contro-
versies may arise along temperance
lines. 1t believes the cause of real
prohibitions distinguished from po-
litical prohibition-has been done more
harm by pretended and hypocritical
friends OF prohibition than could have
been accomplished by all the liquor in
terests of the state in dozen years.
Harding will be elected governor Of
his state in November, and before his
term is expired he will have crammed
down the threats of the Des Moines
gang every lying charge they have
made against him in this campaign.
