MODERN WARFARE,

The United States is actually en-
gagged in war. Somehow we find 1t
hard to grasp the fact and face it, not
outstanding the many evidences on
all sides. Some of the regulars are al
ready on the firing line in France and
Uncle Sans battleships are helping
the allies in the strenuous job of po-
Icing the high seas.
1t has been nineteen years since
Uncle Sam tangled with Spain and
lifted the burden of cruelty and op-
preston from Cuba and the Philip
pines, and more than fifty years since
the North and the South resorted to
arms TO settle certain disputes and
Misunderstanding. Meantime meth
DDS Of carrying on the horrid trade Of
war have changed entirely, Doubt
less it is proper to say progressed" In
this connection, because the destruc-
ton Of life and property has become
thousand times more deadly.
Only q meager proportion Of Uncle
Sans 1O0,OOO,OOO citizens will actually
get within sight and sound Of the.
dreadful tragedy being enacted across
the Atlantic. The rest will have to
acquire knowledge and Information
through the medium of the printed
page, the camera and demonstrations
in the line Of open-air pageants.
OF the latter the spectacular produc-
ton entitled, Modern Warfare" to be
staged at the coming state fair, takes
precedence over all other means Of en-
lightenment for showing actual meth
DDS Of warfare. Blowing up forts, bonn
harding cities, battles between power
full air machines will be shown. Also
trench fighting and the up-to-date war
enginery in the way OF siege guns,
tanks, etc. t.'.,
The troops engaged in this mimic
warfare will be correctly costumed to
represent the different nations, and it
will all be very thrilling, very realistic
and give the Onlooker much clearer
idea Of how war is actually conducted
than volumes Of printed matter could
do. This spectacle will be presented
every night during the fair, staged in
the centeraeld In front Of the amphi-
theatre. u, s52%gss "a a

A HINT TO AUTO BUYERS.

Dear Reader, are you planning to
treat yourself to a new automobile
sometime within the coming year? If
so accept hint or two, (which, posi-
&Ay had not occurred to you.
A worldwide war is in progress,
with practically all the civilized ma
itions> Of the earth involved. War is
tnexpressibly ! destructive, regarded
from any and every point Of view. The
first and most terrible toll is human
life. The next is the destruction Of the
worlds available supply Of iron, cop
per, tin. zinc and other necessary COM
modlties. When foodstuffs are con-
'sumed or destroyed they can be re-
placed and replenished indefinitely
from year to year as the farms yield
their bounty. But the minerals and
metals taken from the earth and de-
stroyed can never be renewed nor
made to grow again. When q locomo-
tive. an airship, a great steel battleshlp
or piece Of machinery Of any kind is
blown. to smithereens the materials
used in construction are gone for the
fOuAuASC VI AAACs <aAu AA6AI lACAC /AACS
!one of wars greatest extravagances,
perhaps the greatest. Supplies of this
kind are being drawn upon and de-
'stroyed at such an alarming rate that
the thoughtful-m1nded may well worry
for the future.
Do you see the point2 Then why not
make your plans to attend the state
fair, study the big automobile show
with It's 1918 styles and models and
place your order for a new car while
prices are still fairly moderate. The
man who thinks he will be able to buy
an auto-or any other piece of machln-
cry, for that matter-cheaper next
year than he can buy it now is making
d Wild guess, as he will discover if he
s0stpones the purchase. %
The auto show at the state fair will
easily eclipse any event Of the kind
yet seen in Iowa, and the new models
which will be on exhibition will not be
In evidence at any auto show until
s0petlme in the spring of 1918. A
hint to the wise is generally sufficient.

GOOD WINTER OATS
WANTED FOR SEED
Agricultural Department Says
Serious Shortage Faces
Farmers of South.

WASHINGTON. June c4.-Farin-
ers In the south who have winter oats
OF good quality are urged to save
them for seed rather than TO feed
them. This crop winter killed very
generally over the south last winter,
and specialists of the United States
department of agriculture say the in
dications are that the seed supply
VIII be very short. Many counties
In the southeastern states will have
TO purchase all their seed from other
localities, and those favored sections
where a partial or full crop was pro-
duced should save every available
bushel to meet this demand. Farm
ers are urged to feed corn or other
grain TO workstock or to purchase
northern grown spring oats for feed
ing In order to save the winter oats
for sowing
Pecause of the scarcity of winter
oats OF good quality, those who have
them are quite sure to profit by
saving them for seed rather than
feeding them. Farmers who do not
know whore they can sell seed oats
should communicate with their
county agent, the director of their
state experiment station. or r. A.
oakley. chairman committee on seed
stocks, United States department of
agriculture, Washington, ID. C. Pres
ent indications are that there will be
ready market for all good seed Of
this crop this year.
