ing a higher interest rate.
There is, furthermore, possibility
that in future years they may COM
mand a considerably higher price.
Normally the credit of the United
States Government makes possible an
interest rate of per cent. or less. If,
after the war, the interest rate returns
to per cent, government bonds on
which the rate of 4 per cent. would
be paying one-third more than other
bonds, and therefore their market
value would rise well baove par"

ENGLAND DISCOVERS PEANUTS.

England is just discovering the
value of peanuts as food. They have
been sold there for many years at
about two cents pint, but have
never been used except by small boys.
A letter to the Lancet says their
price is now six cents pint, and de-
scribes some experiments the writer
had been making in grinding their
kernels, mixing them with wheat
flour and baking the product as cake.
He thinks he did not use enough
flour, as several of the persons who
ate the cakes were nauseated thereby.

VALUE OF BONDS MAY
INCREASE AFTER WAR

One of the reasons most often cited
in the financial district of New York
for purchases of Liberty Bonds is that
their value is very likely to increase
after the war. A prominent brokerage
house has issued a circular discussing
this question as follows:
These bonds are assured of broad
market, and their price should never
materially decrease. They are con-
v.''''hlo into anv later issue which may

No Sale by Baptist Improvement
Band this Year.

AT recent meeting of the I'M
provement Band of the First Baptist
Church, it was decided that, owing
to the war in which the United
States is engaged and the great de-
mand for supplies for the Red Cross
Society, the ladies will not hold their
sale of embroidery, fancy articles,
etc, this year. In order, however,
to accommodate their customers,
they will endeavor to fill any orders
sent in. Orders may be addressed
to Miss Mary Conover.

Liberty Bonds.

first mortgage on the United
States, on every foot of land, every
ucIIar, every building in it.
How will money from the Liberty
Bonds be used?
To convince Germany that the
United States is to be ruled by the
people of the United States, not by a
German Kaiser or his agent.
What will the Liberty Bonds buy?
Safety for this country and other
countries.
And weapons for YOUR brothers 60
inc across the ocean to fight for YOUR
country.
What else will Liberty Bond buy?
Peace of mind for this country, per-
nanent peace for the world. This war,
thoroughly won, will be the last great
war.
What does buying Liberty Bond
mean?
1t means that your money is fighting
with your friends in Europe.
It means a quick answer to the false
German statement that the heart of
America is not in this war.
1t expresses to the Kaiser your
opinion of his treatment of Belgium
and his sinking of the Lusitana.
1t tells the world that this nation is
willing to give its money as we'll as it's
men, and has plenty of both.

ished in the future.

Do Not Waste
the Water

The patrons of the Water Com
pany have been very considerate in
their careful use of water during
the present dry season. A few con-
tinue to waste the water by unneces-
sary sprinkling but the majority
have refrained from such excess
sive use.
There is sufficient water on hand
to carry us through the dry season
if the water is used sparingly and
no waste is permitted.
Until further notice there is to
be as little sprinkling of streets as
possible, and no sprinkllng of lawns
or gardens.

TULSA'S FAMED RICHES
BRINGS MANY STRANDED
Destitute Families Arrive Here and
Without Funds and No Place
to Live

Altho Tulsas reputation as the most
prosperous city in the west is good ad-
vertising, Humane Agent Welch says
1t is not without its evil effects. Be
lieving that a good job awaits every
one, many families in destitute cir
cumstances are flocking to this city.
Upon arrival they are generally
without funds to carry them to the
first pay day, and what Is more Sc
rious, can find no place to live. Even
the humble shacks on the outskirts Of
the city are occupied and none of these
families have the money with which
to buy n tent that could provide some
sort of n shelter The Humane society
has n few tents that 1t loans to desti.
tute families but not enough to meet
the extraordinary demand.
Twelve stranded families were
helped by the society during the past
week. Saturday two mothers with
several children each applied for aid
They were furnished transportation to
relatives in Missouri.

SAND SPRINGS ROAD TO
BE IMPROVED AT ONCE
Rock Will BE Distributed and Force of
Men Put at Work on This
Highway.

The road between Tulsa and Sand
Springs is to be improved at once, ac-
cording to an announcement made
yesterday by members of the county
commission. A force of men will be
put on this highway in the next few
days and 1t will also be gone over with
the county drags.
Rocks will be put over the worst
stretches of the road. A contract has
been signed with the Sand Springs
crusher whereby 1900 yards Of
crushed rock are to be distributed over
the road. The money will be taken
from the road fund of that township.
The Sand Springs road is one Of the
worst stretches of roadway in the
county. The heavy sand and nuulcr-
Gus ruts along the route make 1t al
most impossible for vehicles. With
the resurfacing, the commissioners be-
lieve 1t will compare favorably with
any other road in this section.

good faith by the commission, which
is sending food forward as rapidly as
steamers can be loaded and dis

Speed Up Industries.
at is evident to every thinking man
that our Industries must be made
more prolific and more efficient than
ever and they must be more economi-
cally managed and better adapted to
the particular requirements Of our
task than they have been; and what
want TO say Is that the men and
the women who devote their thot and
their energy to these things will be
serving the country and conducting
the fight for peace and freedom Just
as truly and Just as efficiently as
the men on the battlefield or In the
trenches. The Industrial forces OF the
country, men and women alike, will
be "A great national, a great interna-
tional service army-a notable and
honored host engaged in the service
of the nation and the world, the eff
cient friends and saviors Of free men
everywhere.
81 take the liberty, therefore, Of
addressing this word to the farmers
Of the country and to all who work
on the farms: The supreme need OF
our own nation and Of the nations
with which we are cooperating is an
abundance of supplies and especially
alike for the armies and the peoples
now at war, the whole great enter
prise upon which we have embarked
will break down and fail. The worlds
food reserves are low.
Not only during the presen emer-
gency but for some time after peace
shall have come, both our own people
and a large proportion of people Of
Europe must rely upon the harvests
in America. Upon the farmers of this
country therefore. I'm large measure,
rests the fate of the war and the fate
of the nations.
81 particularly appeal to the farm
ers Of the south to plant abundant
foodstuffs as well as cotton. They can
show their patriotism in no better or
more convincing way than by resist
ing the great temptation Of the pres
ent price of cotton and helping to
feed the nation and the peoples fight
ing for their liberty and our own. The
variety Of their crops Will be the visl-

The government OF the United
States and the government OF the sew
eral states stand ready TO cooperate.
They Will do everything possible to
assist farmers In securing an adequate
supply of seed, an adequate force OF
laborers when they are most needed
at harvest time, and the means OF eX-
peditlng shipments Of fertilizers and
farm machinery, as Il the crops them
selves when harvested The course Of
trade shall be as unhampered as 1t IS
possible to make It and there shall
be no unwarranted monopoliZation of

This Is our opportunity to demon
