Fate Of Nation Rests Largely on IN
Increased Food Supply.

Fate Of Nation Rests Largely on an
Increased Food Supply.
President Wilson In his proclamation
to the people appeals to farmers to do
all In their power to increase the sup
ply Of foods. He says:
take the liberty, therefore, Of ad-
dressing this word to the farmers Of
the country and to all who work on the
farms: The supreme need Of our own
nation and Of the nations with which
we are cooperating is an abundance
Of supplies and especially Of foodstuffs.
The importance of an adequate food
supply, especially for the present year,
Is superlative. Without abundant food
alike for the armies and the peoples
now at war the whole great enterprise
upon which we have embarked will
break down and fail. The worlds food
reserves are low. Not only during the
present emergency, but for some time
after peace shall have come, both our
own people and large proportion Of
the people Of Europe must rely upon
the harvests In America.
Upon the farmers Of this country,
therefore, In large measure rest the
fate Of the war and the fate Of the
nations. May the nation not count
upon them to omit no step that will
increase the production Of their land
or that will bring about the most eff
fectual cooperation in the sale and dis
tribution Of their products? The time
Is short. 1t is Of the most imperative
Importance that everything possible be
done, and done Immediately, to make
sure Of large harvests. I call upon
young men and old alike and upon the
ablebodied boys Of the land to accept
and act upon this duty-to turn In
hosts to the farms and make certain
that no pains and no labor is lacking
In this great matter.
particularly appeal to the farmers
Of the south to plant abundant food
stuffs as well as cotton. They can
show their patriotism in no better or
more convincing way than by resisting
the great temptation Of the present
price Of cotton and helping, helping
uPOh q SiCuI oSdiC, " lCCu Tic udtlOu
and the peoples everywhere who are
fighting for their liberties and for our
own. The variety Of their crops will
be the visible measure of their compre-
hension Of their national duty.
The government Of the United States
and the governments of the several
states stand ready to cooperate. They
will do everything possible to assist
farmers in securing an adequate sup
ply Of seed, an adequate force of la
borers when they are most needed, at
harvest tiIAe, and the means Of ex-
pediting shipments Of fertilizers and
farm machinery as well as Of the
crops themselves when harvested. The
course Of trade shall be as unhampered
as 1t is possible to make 1t, and there
shall be no unwarranted manipulation
Of the nations food supply by those
who handle 1t on its way to the con-
sumner. This is our opportunity to dem
onstrate the efficiency Of a great de-
mOcracy, and we shall not fall short
Of 1t.

Where We Get Rattan.

Rattan is one Of the most important
exports of Singapore, although it does
not make large showing as to value,
being a comparatively cheap article
compared with its bulk. Singapore is
probably the leading export market for
rattans In the world, although practi-
cally none Of the raw product Is pro-
duced In tho Straits Settlements and
very little in the Federated Malay
States, most of it being collected from
the islands of Sumatra, Borneo, the
Celebes and smaller islands. Ordinarily
cut from the jungle by natives under
the direction of Chinese merchants do
ing business in the interior, 1t is bought
up by large dealers In the principal
towns and eventually sold to Singapore
buyers in bundles as 1t comes originally
from the Jungle. The buyers in Singa-
pore take the rattan In this form and
put Il through process Of selection
and cleaning, after which it is bundled
together according to grade and ship
ped direct to Europe or to this coun-
try.

FOR BETTER DAIRY SIRES.
Bankers Aid Wisconsin Farmers to Sc
cure Pure Bred Bulls.

In some sections the problem Of Sc
curing good sires Is serious one, says
a Wisconsin farm bulletin. Often bull
clubs are formed by the farmers them
selves, who combine their purchasing
power to get the services Of good sires
comparatively. In other communities
bankers, merchants and creamery
owners furnish funds on long time
notes, making very satisfactory ar
rangements for their payment at the
end Of two year period. A system Of
leasing sires, whereby part Of the
money received from each farmer for
service fees is used to pay the cost Of
bulls, is In use In several Wisconsin
communities.
The plans described here have all
been worked out. They are practical.
There are undoubtedly many other sue
cessful ones. If your community could
be benefited by a similar plan start 1t
yourself. Don't wait for the business
men to make the first step. Live stock
raising is the biggest business In Wis
consin. Many country bankers realize
It, and they will meet you half way,
for they see the Importance Of profit
producing farm animals in the proper
development Of their communities.
Here are. few suggestions about
buying: 80.
First.--In buying a bull, get as good
a one as you can afford. The sire, II q
good pure bred, is more than half the
herd.
Second.-If possible buy from o
breeder whom you know.
Third.-Be sure you get stock from
disease free herds.
Fourth.-Do not expect to buy good
cows cheap. The poorest cows are
those that are for sale In most herds.
Fifth.-Your best investment Is to
get heifers which have not freshened,
but which have been bred to regis
tered sire Of the same breed.
Sixth.-Buy as near home as possible.
You save expenses, and IL animals are
not satisfactory your chances for re-
dress are much better.

The four hundred children OF the

musical director, Miss Sallie Mccall,
deserve to be especially commended
for their excellent work in carrying
out the pageant representing the Ma
tivity. on the school grounds last eve
ming. The children were all in oriental
costumes. and the grouping against
the dark background of the hill was
very effective.
The singing of Hark the Herald
Angels Sing" NO Room in the Inn, :"
and The Lord is Mindful of His
own" is worthy of special mention.
The entire production Illustrated the
true meaning of Christmas and con-
veyed to the audience a much needed
reminder of the Christmas spirit.
The success of the electric Star

was due to the efforts of the Bisbee

much to the stage effect.
