WORKERS V|TALLY
 INTERESTED IN WAR
WAGE FARMER HAS MORE TO LOSE THAN ANY CLASS
 BY DEFEAT.
SLAVE OR FREEMAN, CHOOSE
Secretary Wilson Points That With Democracy's Downfall Common People Will Lose Hard Won,
 Dearly Bought Liberties.

A strong appeal to the workingmer of this country to participate in the second Liberty Loan to the fullest ex- tent has been made by William B. Wilson, Secretary of Labor. Secretary Wilson points out that the workers have more at stake in this great con- flict than any others, because it is only In a democracy that the common people can come into their own" Sec retary Wilson's statement is as fol lows:
 To the Wage-Workers of the United
 States:
 The great European war in which we are now involved came to the peo- pie of the Western Hemisphere as terrible shock, and to no portion of the people did it come as greater shock than to the wage earners of the United States. They believed in and wanted international peace, but they wanted it on basis of international justice which would insure the right of our people to govern themselves, When the Imperial German Govern. ment undertook to destroy the lives of our people and to impose a rule of conduct upon us without our con. sent in places under the jurisdiction of the United States Government, there was no course left but to resist.
 The workers have more at stake in this conflict than any others, be- cause it is only in a democracy that the common people can come into their own. The great privilege Is not given to all of us to serve our country on the battlefield or in the trenches, but there are other ways in which ws can serve and assist those who are privileged to carry our flag on the battlefields of Europe. The inn ulse of sacrifice for the common good is sending the youth of our country into the trenches in defense of liberty, hR manity and democracy To those of us who must of necessity remain at home to till the soil, harvest ths crops, man the factories. mines and mills. the way is open for additional service. We, too, must make sacri 1 fices. The men who go forth to dc battle In the field must be equipped and sustained Funds must be forth. coming to furnish the food, the fire arms and other supplies for the fight ing forces of the nation.
 l am reminded of the fable of a great drought when the crops were wasting for the want of water, and one little raindrop said to another in the clouds, T would like to go down to the relief of the farmer and hia perishing crops, but am so little il would be useless" And another lit tie raindrop replied, Tt would be use less for you to go down alone, but let us all go down and our combined effort will bring the needed relief"
 And so 1t is with the workers The funds each has available is but a drop. but all of the drops together can make a shower of funds that will furnish the needed supplies. bring joy to the hearts of the boys at the iron, and consternation to our enemies.
 WILLIAM B. WILSON.
 Secretary of Labor.

MIR. SMALL INVESTOR,
 THIS VITAL MESSAGE
 IS ADDRESSED TO YOU.
How to Invest Money.

HOW 70 invest Moncy.
 Joseph D. Bascom. secretary and treasurer of the Frederick & Bas- com Rope Co.,. St. Louis. whose com pany has bought s250,000 of the second series of the Liberty Loan. gives excellent reasons for invest ing in the bonds
 Mir. Bascoln Is a successful busi- ness man, and while he urges in- vestment in Liberty Bonds as patriotic duty, he sees the advan- tage from a business standpoint of buying the bonds.
 Investing surplus earnings in Liberty Bonds, MT. Bascom says, is better than paying dividends. The great corporations are accumu- lating funds to meet increased taxes and value depreciation. What better investment for these funds and other reserve funds than 4-per- cent Government bonds-the safest in the world?
 Individually MT Bascom is set ting good example to small in- vestors. He says that the Eastern capitalists are investing in Liberty Bonds and he has always found 1t wise to follow their example. The first rule for small investors is to follow the advice or example of those experts who know how to in vest money to best advantage. Men who have made and are making money are the best guides in moaey saving and money making.
 Small investors cannot do bet ter than follow the leadership of the big investors and the capable business men at the head of sue. eessful corporations. Buy Liberty Bonds.-From the St. Louis Post Dispatch.

POOR ROADS ARE EXPENSIVE
Mistaken Idea That Improved High ways Are Solely for Benefit of
 Automobile Owners.

Poor roads are very expensive things for country communities. The farmer who thinks that improved highways are mainly for the benefit of those who drive automobiles should reflect on the results of a recent investigation by the department of agriculture, which finds that the cost of hauling farm produce over ordinary country roads is 23 cents a ton mile, whereas over hard-surfaced roads it is only 13 cents.

OPERATION OF A ROAD DRAG
Use Pokiest, Laziest Kind of Team and Let Them Have Their Own
 Time-Just Keep Moving.

Do not wait for anything; build drag and get out onto the road.
 Drive very slowly. Use the pokiest, laziest team you own, and give them their time. Just so they keep moving they will be going swiftly enough. After you have used the drag year, and have learned when to drive rap idly and when to drive slowly, you can carry a whip or drive a mettlesome team.

 The man named separated himself from the others. and slowly climbed the ladder. He WAS big. muscular fellow, with red hair, clipped close to his head, and intelligent blue eyes.
 .'Your name is Leayord?"
 Aye, aye, sir
 'This is your first voyage on the Indian Chief?"
 'No, sir; my third"
 "Very good, MT. Leayord from now on you will mess aft, and rank as first mate, serving watch and watch with me. Is there man forward capable If filling the second mates berth?'
 He ran his eyes over the group be- tow rather doubtfully.
 "Olson might ssr,n he answered inally. 'Ie is sober, and a good sea man."
 Step forward, Olson."
 The mass of men parted slightly, and q man was pushed to the front. He possessed strongly marked Swedish face, smooth shaven and almost boyish.
 "How old are you, Olson?"
 "Twentyeight, sir
 "You know the sea 2"
 ''Twelve years in the focastle, sir"
 All right; I'm going to give you q chance to make good as second officer. Mir. Olson. Now, lads, that's all for the present. I take 1t you are sailor men, and know what that sky means The chances are ten to one we'll have q storm before midnight, and we'll meet 1t better with clear decks. Get forward, all hands, and clear away that riftie-lively now"
 They were bit slow about it, grum- bling among themselves. Olson spoke once or twice, although l could not hear exactly what was said, and the power of sea discipline finally con quered Within ten minutes they were working cheerfully enough, and Lea yord had ceased his gruff ordering, and stood silent beside the lee rail. It pleased me to observe that Olson took hold along with the others, and did his full share of the work I leaned far ther over to gain view of the cabin en- trance, but Baseom had disappeared. The girl, however. held her place, and glanced up, her eyes meeting mine.
 Gould 1 come up there, Mir. Hol- lis?" she questioned.
 Certainly; as passenger this deck is free for your use. Take the star board ladder"
 I gave her my hand and helped her to grasp the rail. She glanced about into the mist.
 'Eow gray and somber it is" she said soberly. "The fog is almost like hand clutching at you"
 '.The glass Is falling rapidly" I an swered, ''and I suspect storm is breeding behind that curtain; that is why am so anxious to make all clear. What do you think of the crew?'
 She glanced aside toward the mo- tionless negro at the wheel, and then ut the men shutiling about their work. "1-I hardly know; they-they look awfully rough and-and disreputable. Weren't some of them drunk?"
 No doubt, yes. Don't worry, Miss Vera. Those things are frequent enough on shipboard. We will have these lads thoroughly tanned within an other twentyfour hours. There is never a mutiny without some leader and q better cause. I am working under your orders, you know"
 She glanced up quickly into my face.
