Friday
Every man finds in his wife a dis
tinctive something that he never finds
in another woman. Other women may
attract, but they can't hold. They
may charm by contrast of beauty of
face and figure, and fool may be daz-
zled by costly raiment and rare per-
fumes. But intimacy breeds contempt,
nd hn he nf
the more he appreciates the good old
girl who is always waiting for him
when he gets home.
With our country at. war it comes
home TO all of US that we are facing
crisis in our history. Times have been
good everybody has made money and
we have spent it with lavish hand.
There can be none of that this year
there must be retrenchment every
where everybody should consume a
little less and produce little more.
We must utilize all our resources and
we must conserve. There must be no
hunger in America do your part to
avert it.
The good old ruta baga has come
into its own, the past winter and
made the acquaintance of lot of new
friends. They have been selling in the
markets of our city friends as high as
So 50 per bushel, and were scarce at
that price. OF course, the food specula-
tors got the most of the 50 so, but next
fall the farmers are not likely to sell
bagas quite so cheap as they did last
year. If farmer could be sure of ff-
ty cents bushel, however, few acres
of new breaking would produce enough
to buy a tin Lizzie. Those city folks,
down among the white lights and movie
shows, have got to eat, and they
are finding the good old baga very
toothsorle when the potatoes are low
in the din.
