some of them of that distinction.

Here's hoping that every farmer
who fails to at least try for plenty of
grain, plenty of forage crops and
plenty of vegetables will have to pay
three dollars a bushel for corn and
fifty dollars ton for grass. And
that's about what he will have to pay
if he does not get busy and plant such
crops another season. Better plant
some wheat, better plant much oats,
much corn, much peas, much sorgum.
Better look ahead, for if you don't
you will sadly look back-when an
other season rolls round. This is no
joke. To save himself, the farmer will
have to save the country.
Better raise more hogs, more chick
ems, fewer cats, fewer dogs. Better
count the cost, before it is too late
Better sow turnips, plenty of them.
Better plant potatoes, many of them,
both Irish and sweet potatoes. Bet
ter put in laundering crop of oats,
you will need all you can grow, and
more too, and your neighbor will need
some, too. This is the greatest period
for the farmer that has ever come to
this earth, but it will benefit him not
one whit if he is too short-sighted to
move forward in a big way. I am
giving you, not my own ideas, but
the ideas your government is sending
out broadcast. These ideas are being
promulgated by every agricultural COL
lege, every farm paper, every student
of current history and every man of
average intelligence who is in a po-
stion to know the real situation. All are
sending out the same warning. If the
war should stop today, high prices
would still go on; in fact when it does
stop, that's just what will take place.
To be forewarned is to be forearmed.
Take this advice or let it alone. Most
of you will let it alone. But that's
where you lose.

The following from an editorial in
the Negro Review, edited by Rev. A.
A. Sims, is good advice given to the
colored people, and, it contains some
suggestions that might prove helpful
to white people, if they would heed
the message:
"The Germans have captured a few
Americans and the Americans have
'"t"n few Germans. A few have
- killed on both sides. This means
-iiaG the war is being brought nearer
us in reality. Soon we must hear of
numbers of Negroes dying in the
trenches or being captured. Let us
not wait for this to realize that the
war is at our door before we do all
we can to help our men. They must
be fed and clothed while they fight.
They are depending on us. We all can
help by cultivating the soil, raising
more meat and then saving it all with
care. Let every home have a Splen-
did garden and raise pig. Let there
be no waste land nor idle hands,"

Big things are at stake in this
war. Momentous issues are at stake
in this war. Liberty and slavery are
in death grip. The Negro should
take this war to heart; if Germany
should win he would find himself
bound to the chariot of the victor with
chains that would not be broken
through the centuries to come. Au-
tocracy would delight in the prospect
of the millions of black slaves to till
its fields and gather its harvests.
The Jew should come up to the needs
of this hour, for autocracy, not democ-
racy, is his enemy of old Autocracy
has driven the Jew from pillar to
post; it has scattered his people to
the fourquarters of the heavens! it
today tramples with the foot of tyran-
ny upon the very land that marked
the birthplace of his race; and
there is no hope for the Jew in
the world that Germany would build
Autocracy will despoil the Jew of his
wealth, cheat him out of his birth
right, damn him to a life of pilgrim
age and of uncertainty. Autocracy
in Russia has trampled upon him; au-
tocracy in Germany has despoiled
him; autocracy in Turkey has butcher
ed him. The Jew, of all men, should
say, "down with autocracy! down with
autocracy."

-Seapon to destroy the doc
'rihes IF religion. Democracy is the
hel'a in which religion may come to
fruitage. 1t cannot live under au-
tocratic rule.
The poor man should arouse himself,
for democracy is about all a poor
man has; it is the one door that opens
to him the rich field of the earth, and
bids him come in and gather treas

The rich man must needs arouse
himself to the needs of the hour, for
the only real value his money brings
is the power to act with freedom,
to use it as his heart dictates. Au-
tocracy says: "Let me have charge of
that wealth; it really belongs to the
State. You are but the puppet of
the State" Yes, the rich man had
better look well to his own necessi-
ties. Autocracy will despoil him,
chain him, corrupt him, make him lie
and sneak and hide. Democracy is
the only safeguard for wealth.
Our women had better heed the
calls of democracy. Autocracy en-

chattles. Chooses their husbands and
then puts the whip-handle into the

Girls! Have Wavy,
Thick, Glossy Hair
Free From Dandruff
Save Your Hair! Double Its Beauty
Ina few MOments-Try This!

If you care for heavy hair, that
glistens with beauty and is radiant
with life; has an Incompatible soft
ness and is fluffy and lustrous, try
Danderine.
Just one application doubles the
beauty of your hair, besides it imme-
diately dissolves every particle of
danrduff; you cannot have nice, heavy
healthy hair if you have danuruff
This destructive scurf robs the hair
of its lustre, its strength and it's very
life, and if not overcome it produces
feverishness and itching of the scalp,
the hair roots famish, loosen and
die; then the hair falls out fast.
If you hair has been neglected and
is thin, faded, dry, scraggy or too
oily, get small bottle of Knowlton's
Danderine at any drug store or toilet
counter for a few cents; apply little
as directed and ten minutes after YOU
will say this was the best investment
you ever made.
: We sincerely believe, regardless of
everything else advertised, that if you
desire soft, lustrous, beautiful hair
and lots of it-no dandruff-no itch
ing scalp and no more falling hair
you must use Knowlton's Dander-
Inc. If eventually-why not now?

COME, NOW, LET'S DO 1T.

Tomorrow, Friday, is the day set for
the great drive to raise $500 in
Union county for the army Y. NJ. G. A.
work. If every citizen of Union coun-
ty had heard the speech of DR.. Beav-
ers in the court house a few days
ago, canvass of the county would be
unnecessary, for the money would be
contributed before the committees got
started. 1t is to be hoped that every
body will come up to the needs of
the hour and get the amount aimed
at in the one day canvass. 1t is a
most worthy course, fellow citizens,
and it should lie close upon your heart.
Oakland community, Tuesday even
ing, raised $3.50 for this fund at
mass meeting and Immediately started
a committee to canvass the whole
community. What this progressive
community diu, every community Ill
the county could do, and the task
would not be heavy one.
Do not say: "This concerns me not"
You would speak falsely if you so
said. 1t concerns you vitality. These
| soldiers are not out to fight their
own battles, they are fighting your
battlese. If they had not gone you
would have had to go. If they fail,
you will have to go. If we all fail,
there will not be left on this earth
anything worth while for you and for
me. This Y. M. G. A. fund is to
go to help bring some Of the home
comforts and home safeguards to
your boy, now far away, or at least
situated in strange surroundings and
in great need of comfort. You are
the guardian, the co-worker, the home
guard, while the boy from your COM
munity is out on the firing line. Do
your part, and do it without complain
ing. This fund is going straight to
the mark, every dollar of it. Nobody
gets any "rakeoff." This money will
carry cheer, comfort both mental
and physical, to the boy who has
left home, comfort, friends and native
land to stand for his country and his
country's institutions. Don't imagine
that if you fail someone else will con
tribute the money, anyway. Even il
this were so, but it is not, you woult
be the loser if you fail to give. Ant
don't pull out your nickles and dimes
let it be dollars and five and tens
more if you can afford it. If we los,
this war your money would be wortl
no more to you than a handful Of
oak leaves; nor would your homes ant
your land and your merchandise b,
worth anything. You may not hav,
, realized it, but your country is in /;
