simple and direct thing to do is to In

tuition of vegetables as in the country,
districts and smaller towns. It is even
more important therefore, that in the
country districts and smaller towns
vegetables should be- substituted for
the staples, because this will greatly
relieve the question of. transportation.
If the rural population, including in
this term the larger towns and smaller
cities, would during. the months Of
July, August and September reduce the
consumption Of sugar one ounce, bread
four ounces, and meat one and half
ounces a day, and vegetables were sub

100000 beeves. ~ I'D
Furthermore, we must realize that
If it is necessary that we consume per-
fshable foodstuffs, we should consume
them as near the source as possible,
and we should conserve the staple
foodstuffs as far as possible for win!
ter use and for export to our allies.

Europe found their first loan the hard
est to sell. In each it was necessary
to undertake just such a campaign
as was undertaken in this country.
This was especially necessary here,
because our people as rule have not
been bond buyers
Whereas, in France the humrlest
peasants invest their savings both in
European and American securities,
and in England the men of modest
means invest in British consols, we
Americans have preferred the banks
which pay interest on deposits.
1t was the hard task of the gov.
eminent and those who volunteered
to help the government in it's great
work to overcome this habit Of a
lifetime.
Then there was the further handi.
cap of not being able to deliver the
bonds as quickly as paid for. When
the average man lays down his
money he wants to receive what he
pays for. whether this be goods ,or
bonds. He is not particularly keen
about promise to deliver at some
time in the future.
,,~ The next loan for the cause of ma
tional defense and liberty will be
easier to float, provided the govern.
ment has the bonds printed in ad
vance, SO that when a man puts down
his money he can carry away with
him that for which he paid. 1t is
not unlikely that II this plan had
been followed in connection with the
first loan 1t would have been over
subscribed 100 per cent, instead OF
50.S
Also, when the next loan Is fioated
the uncertainty as to what taxes we
are going to have to pay will have
been removed, and there is no doubt
that this uncertainty kept many pa
triotic people from subscribing to the
first loan. or limited their subscrip
tons. s+%} In ,".,
If there were any doubts in the
kaiser's mind about the willingness
OF the American people to finance
their war against Germany, he was
disillusioned when he got the news

Loan. i, n. st$.44 .,

there is silence save for the muir

soft laughter of a tot who has found
something amusing even in the tedi

In the twinkling of an eye all this

Of rending timbers and then within
the room itself there is terrific
binding. shattering explosion. When
the gas and smoke clear away, all Is
silence again save for the pitiful
means of mere babes who are suffer

of the tots have had arms and legs
torn off, others are terribly lacerated
or burned or buried amid wreckage
Some are unacceptable.
In the absence of ambulances, ordi
