A Wildcat and a Fox.

Two Colorado men were out driving
near Pine creek when they saw red
fox coming down the road atlfull speed
and about twenty feet in the rear a
wildcat. The men had a view of the
race for nearly mile. The pace was
terrific, and neither runner seemed to
gain an inch ON the other for the whole
distance. But the cat evidently had
more endurance and would have over
taken the fox had 1t not been for the
men in the buggy. Reynard chose tho
lesser OF two evils and ran up boldly,
passing the men like an arrow, bur
the wildcat stopped at sight of them
and after a seconds hesitation skunk
into the bushes and gave up the chase.

Comparative War Burden.

German propagandists in America
have tried strenuously and with come
measure of success to Undue the pub
lie with the idea that we are simply
finishing the other fellows fight
That America should have kept out
of this quarrel. And that we will
pay out of all proportion for our par.
ticipation in the war.
None of these claims are true.
The State Department at Wash
ington has shown conclusively that,
even when she was protesting the
warmest friendship for the United
States, Germany was plotting secret
ly to embroil us with Mexico, to in
terrupt our friendly relations with
Japan, to estrange us from Latin
America, and generally to make it so
unpleasant for US at home that we
would not dare resent any outrage
she might attempt upon our national
rights and honor.
And the President has explained
very plainly. directly and conyinc-
ingly why he finally put aside all bis
immediate hopes of peace and went
into the conflict.
The people of the allied European
nations this year will contribute SIS,
600, 100000 to the support of the
war. The American public is asked
to provide $4,000, 100000. On the
face OF it this appears to bear out the
German claim.
But this represents for America
not only the expense of supporting
an army of 100000 in the field
but the initial expense of raising
and equiping that army,
Moreover, in America lOl 600, 600
people have an annual income OF
$40, ,00O,O00,OOO. The annual in
come of the 4O6, 100000 people of the
European nations is only $3O,OOO,
600, 900.
Where the per capita income, the
individual INCOME for every man,
woman and child in the United
States, is 1887, that in England,
Russia, France and Italy combined
average less than $75.
The individual financial burden in
Europe is about four times what it
will be in America. The hardship
is immeasureably greater.
Nor viii all Of this 500, ,000,O 900
come from our annual income. Our
savings account will supply most OF it.

New State Fish Hatchery.
Will Be Located At LewistOwn
Along Fishing Creek.

Frederick county has secured the State
Fish Hatchery for Western Maryland,
provided for in the act of the special ses-
sion of the Legislature. Word to this
effect was given to Reno S. Harp, presi-
dent of the Frederick County Game and
Fish Protective Associa tion, and who has
been very active in the matter, last week.
The State Conservation Commission.
through J. T. Snyder. United States fish
culturist, decided to locate the hatchery
near Lewistown, on Fishing Creek and
He'll Run. Leases were executed by Da-
vid A. Devilbiss, giving the commission
authority to divert Fishing Creek across
his land, with no expense attached, and
also by Milton Ramsburg, on whose land
the hatchery building will be erected.
Work of constructing this building will
begin about Nov. lst.
The hatchery building will be located
on He'll Run, and will be 4Ox6O feet in
size. In this building trout and all other
fish hatched artificially will be Matched.
The hatchery is about one mile west OF
the Lewistown station.
Seven acres of land. covered with 10
large fish ponds have been leased from
Charles J. Remsburg, which will be stock
ed with brood bass fish December lst.
The large Lake View pond has also been
leased from Mr.. Remsburg. This will be
used to winter the brood bass fish. All
bass will be Matched from the ponds, and
these fish will grow to weight Of three
quarters Of a pound in the first year.
1t is the intention to ask the Legisla-
ture to make sufficient appropriation,
if the waters prove productive. so that
the ponds now leased can be purchased
outright.
c. Ernest Ebberts, assistant engineer
to the State Conservation Commission,
will have charge Of the erection OF the
hatchery, acting as the purchasing clerk.
Possession of the leased property will be
secured November lst. Pumps, jars,
slate, lumber. coils. and numerous other
material is to be purchased.
w. G. Bell, formerly with the United
States Bureau of Fisheries. will also be
on hand to take charge of the propaga-
tion of fish and will likely be located at
the hatchery permanently.

The Liberty Loan Primer.
Your Dollars Cannot Be Neutral

You must be either for or against the
soldier boys now marching to the trenches
in France. You must be either for or
against your country. There is no half
way station; no twixt or between.
Your dollars cannot be neutral.
Uncle Sam needs your financial assist
ance. American success in this war de-
pends upon our sending an army fully
equipped, efficiently trained, amply sup.
piled with every requisite of the field.
Every link in the military chain must be
strong. We dare not take chances.
Germany's tremendous aggressiven esq
in this conflict has been made possible
only by the highest efficiency in every
detail. The Germans were prepared at
every point when they loosed the dogs OF
war and sent their armies hurling thro'
Belgium on the way to Paris.
Let's not send to France the pride of
Americas young manhood-the boys for
whom in any emergency we would make
any sacrifice, any whit less prepared.
Take care of your loyalty to the army.
and your loyalty to the country will take
care of itself.
There are numerous ways of serving
the Kaiser. And withholding your sup
port from the boys we have sent. and
will yet send to the front, the boys whom
the world at large is watching closely
and expectantly. Is by no means the least
of these.
You would bitterly and instantly re.
sent any other charge of disloyalty to
your country. Probably you haven't
considered this phase of the situation,
but calmly think it over for a moment
and you will get the point.
You cannot afford, even unconsciously,
to leave open this wee loophole for
question.
1t will be far cheaper and more self
satisfying to buy Liberty Bond.
