1t has become q platitude to say
that no one realizes the extent of ex-
penditures made by the United States
government on the war this year, but
Frank A. Vanderlip has at last put
the matter In a way that challenges
attention and brings out clearly the
magnitude Of our undertakings.
In our first year of the war, says
Mr.. Vanderlip, from May of 1917 to
May Of 1918, the United States will
have spent or contracted to spend
more money than 1t took to run the
government from the time of the
Declaration Of Independence up to
the time we declared war on Ger
many. In other words we are spend
ing more money In this fiscal year
than we have spent in the entire pre-
vious 141 years OF our national exist
ence.
A search of records reveals the
fact that In 1900 the American gov
ernment was spending only about
$40, 100000 year. BY 1850 the an
nual expenses of Uncle Sam were only
little more than $40,00O,O0O and in
1880 they had grown to 1866, ,O0O,-
900. From 1904 to 1916 our total
governmental expenditures were a
little more than $4,000, 100000 for
the entire IL years, and those were
considered the big years until we
got our new war time ideas of bigness
In figures.
This year the United States Is
spending more than $21.000.00O,000
on the war against Germany. In the
previous 141 years Of war and peace
we ran the government on several bill
lions less. even though during that
period we fought the War of Inde-
pendence, the War of 1912, the Bar.
barry Coast war, the Mexican war, the
Civil war and the war with Spain, be
sides many brisk and costly Indiar
campaigns.

Nonpartisan Head Tells Wilson Aid
Is Needed to Prevent Shortage
In Food.

To relieve serious situation
among the farmers of the West,
brought about by crop failures last
fall, and to insure bumper argicul-
tural production next year, A. c.
Townley, head of the National Nom
partisan league called on President
Wilson and Food Administrator Hoo
yer last week and laid before them
plan whereby the government could
make short time loans to farmers
at low rate of interest. The details
were given out today on Mr.. Town
ley's return from Washington, D. C.
Mr.. Townley told President Wilson
that In North Dakota and many other
western states, the farmers, suffer-
ing from short yield the year be-
fore, borrowed money In order to
plant increased acreage to produce
food to help the Allies win the war.
The crop was a failure, wheat only
averaging seven bushels to the acre
In North Dakota, while many other

Federal Aid Is Imperative
Some sort of Federal loan to
relieve the farmers is imperative, II
the farmers are to keep their herds
and put in big crops next year." MT.
Townley said. Farmers borrowed
heavily and were hard hit by the
crop failure. In face of this comes
the rising prices of feed. Many farm
ers are being forced to sell their
livestock as they are financially un-
able to carry them over the winter
when feed is SO high. True, there is
plenty of fodder, hay and roughage
in parts of Minnesota, Iowa, Illinois.
and other states, but many farmers
have borrowed to their limit of cred
1t and face failure unless they get
government aid.
Plenty Of Money on Hand
I'VE have loaned or intend to loan
to the Allies more than $1,000, 0,000,-
$3.50. 100000 so that Rugssian debts
to American munition makers might
be liquidated. The government also
purchased $9,500,000 Of munition-
making machinery which it is rent.
, ing to Eastern manufacturers who
have large war orders. The food
controller has an appropriation o.
$4,000, 900 at his disposal. 1t II
proposed to lend $1,000, 900 tt
the railroads SO that they can bu,
more equipment. In view of these
facts I can see no reason why thu
government should not make loan
to farmers.
, Urges Demand Upon Congress
II have laid the facts before Pres

Now, friend Saunders, do you
know that a girl that makes enough
to support herself and mother gen
orally holds a good position and will
not give it up and marry unless she
can go right into coy little nest
of her own and not have to toll after
marriage for a lazy husband. You
may think that three can live cheap

this theory.

future as to the solutions that you
offer for the high cost of living

You poor, helpless Mr.. Saunders!
Did you wait 35 years and live your
life alone because you could not find
a foolish woman to support you? 1t
is evident that you cannot support
yourself, and, if so, you do not de-
serve a wife. Furthermore, how have
you got the audacity to ask some
good girl to be your wife and IN the
bargain have her mother act as the
servant for you?
1 do not in the least blame you for
having such thoughts. 1t merely
shows that you have been educated
wrong in thinking that you can get
girl to fulfill the duties of wife, moth
er and support of the family.
You have erred my FRIEND and
may God forgive you for it!
Men like you are detriment to a
community, for they influence wrong
thinking. You are injuring yourself
as well as the rest of your club mem
bers by having such fantastic ideas
that any good, sef-respecting girl
would come to you and say: please
be my husband. 1 will work for you,
and my mother will take care Of
