can begin to comprehend the Importance, ex-
tent, scope and magnitude of the American
newspaper
It serves you best through its advertising
columns There it directs you to the most re-
liable stores with which to deal. It tells you
the best goods to purchase, the purest foods to
eat. the most serviceable and fashionable mer-
chandise to buy and where to buy them
Read the advertisements in The Daily Gate
City closely and constantly every day to get
the greatest good from your paper.

The Council Bluffs Nonpareil, heretofore
riciously anti-Harding in its sentiment, is on
the way to acquiring broadness OF view In the
matter OF state politics and candidates. 1t
saws: "a number OF democratic newspapers are
working on the theory that they can make
votes for Wilson by claiming that Roosevelt is
the power behind the Hughes throne. That ar
yurnent is somewhat akin to the one used
against Harding-it cuts both ways" Any
sudden conversion to right thinking is good for
newspapers as well as for men, and this evi
dence Of reforInatory inclination on the part OF
the Nonpareil is welcome sign of a clearing
vision.

WASTEFUL AMERICA.

Conditions in the paper indus
are Unprecedented. Domestic re
quiremcnts never have been Sc
large and the export movement i:
the biggest ever known. Reserve
stocks are practically exhausted
deliveries being made faster than
paper can be produced.
The supply of practically all
raw materials is abnormally low,
insufficient even for ordinary re-
quircments, and other influences
operate to restrict production.
Prices have advanced to I'M
heard of levels since the war
opened. Quotations have in
many instances been withdrawn,
not only by small firms, but by
the largest manufacturers in the
country. No matter how high
the price, large orders are being
refused because Of inability to fill
them.
At the solicitation of the presi-
dent of one Of the large paper
manufacturing companies the de-
partment Of commerce has asked
the public to do it's part in the
nergency. Secretary Redfeld
says:
Something like $4,000 tons of
different kinds of paper and paper
board are manufactured every
day in the United States and a |
large proportion of this after it !
has served its purpose could bel
used over again in some class of /
paper. A large part Of it, how
ever, is either burned or other
wise wasted. This, of course, has
to be replaced by new materials.
In the early history of the paper
industry publicity was given to
the Importance of saving rags. 1t
is of scarcely less Importance
now. A little attention to the
saving of rags and old papers will
mean genuine relief to our paper
industry and a diminished drain
upon our sources of supply for
new materials. The department
Of commerce will be glad to put
nquirers in touch with the man
nfacturers who are interested.

THE BACKYARD GARDENS.

! Let the para graphs have all the

the backyard gardens. Let the
cartoonists make pictures Of faith
Ter Juggling home hoe and rake
Let the humOrists tell Of the diff
ference between the picture on
the package garden seed and the
product that comes from the seed.
The fact is the backyard sarden
is proper institution, and is do
ing world of good in this de-
lIghtful world.
There is no way Of correctly
estimating the amount of stuff
reduced in backwards in this
country. Certainly there is much
more of it than the average man
might suppose. In some instan-
ces, 1t Is true, the vegetables
-rOWn are not worth as much as
the hoe and rake cost the gar
dener, but in many instances the
produce from the soil is a consid-
,rable item in the running of the
household. And in all instances.
the garden pays a dividend be-
cause it is worth whole lot to
any man or woman to get out and
lig in the dirt.
There is something about cult
waiting the soil that is mysterious.
1t puts something into the mind
and heart and blood that does not
otherwise get there. The bow
who has planted seed, and
watched it grow into a plant is
better educated than the boy who
has had no such experience. He
knows something the other bow
:annot learn from books. He has
an inspiration that cannot be
gained from the printed word.
And he has health over and above
What he would have if it were not
or the toll of cultivation.-Ba-
