WOMEN OF IRON COUNTY

Listen to what a woman says.
woman expert from the Michigan
Agricultural College.
The Leak In the Market Basket.
About one-ffth OF the money spent
for food Is wasted. Where does II go?
one OF the most common wastes comes
in too much inedible material. Meat,
fish. eggs, many vegetables and fruits
consist of a part that cannot be used,
such as the bones of Ash and meat,
the skins and seeds of certain fruit
and some portions of vegetables. The
point that most interests you is the
relation Of the unusable portion to
the whole. For instance, suppose
YOU buy two hens at 20 cents pound !;
one weighing three pounds and the
other five which Is the cheaper pur-
chase? The hen weighing three
pounds will furnish you with just
about one pound of meat so that meat
I actually costs 60 cents a pound. From
the larger hen you would get a larger
quantity OF meat. perhaps as much
as two and one-half pounds. That
would make the cost OF this meat
actually 40 cents a pound.
In purchasing fish, IL cod andfloun'
der were on the market at 15c a pound
and halibut al II cents. what would
be the wiser purchaser owing TO thu
amount OF refuse, the founder would
really cost as much pound as thu
halibut so one would find cod thu
cheaper purchase.
Every single article OF food brough
into the house should be studied from
this viewpoint
Another great waste comes from
buying out of season. When fresl
vegetables begin to tempt you, re
member that YOU are paying purel
for flavor and not for nutrition whel
the price Is too high and the seasoi
is new. Our continued forcing O

The Right Stuff


Anxious to fight, but fearing that
that his age would prove bar to his
enlistment for service, Thomas J.
Walker, 440l Mcpherson avenue, st.
Louis, has written to Major General
George Barnett, commandant Of the
United States Marine corps.
Walker wrote: II am sixty-one
years old, healthy, active. temperate
and reliable. wish to offer my ser
vices In some capacity-shore, river,
deep sea or otherwise"
The recent rush In recruiting has
brought many odd types of both
sexes to the Marine corps recruiting
stations. Like Walker, many have
expressed a willingness to do their
bit" wherever duty calls, whether 1t
be 'shore, river, deep sea or other

THE WAR
The Nation Preparing to Do
Its Bit---A Big British
Victory

Nothing startling happened at the
national seat of government during
the past week, but all departments
have been going ahead energetically
getting the Nation into q state Of
preparedness.
The outstanding feature Of the
week has been the great British VIC
tory In the Arras region of the
western battle front. On this front,
General Haig's army pushed the
Germans hack five miles on twelve
mile front, capturing between il,OO
and 1900 prisoners and about 100 big
guns.
The comming summer will see the
last stage Of the great war.

Some Plain Truths

The able and brilliant Senator
Williams of Mississippi, In replying
to Senator La Toilette, said, among
other things:
''The senator from Wisconsin Ia.
bored to establish an identity Of pur-
pose and action In the violations Of
our neutral rights by Great Britain
aud Germany. He proved he did not
know the difference between q prize
court and torpedo. Great Britain
he's drowned none of our citizens.
~ am little tired Of utterances like
that of the senator from Wisconsin
denouncing the entente allies. He en-
deavors to twist the British lions
tail. Demagogues have been doing
that ever since the revolution, but 1t
is a matter Of history that most of
the people OF England were against
the war on the colonies.
(Which would you rather do, fight
Germany now with France and Great
Britain and Russia or fight her alone
later? You've got to do one or the
other. I tell you II Germany does
win that fight OH the continent of
Europe, she will begin building and
getting ready to whip us unless the
English fleet prevents It,"
Referring to the Wisconsin sena-
tors statement that the United
States has nothing to lose no matter
which side wins the war, Senator
Williams said:
f"Let's see; have we no honor, no
regard for the future sovereignty of
our country, no regard for our flag?
IL sentiment rot; is patriotism rot; is
there nothing precious except money?
"I'm getting tired Of this talk that
this is a Wall street war. That's q
lie. Wall street did not sink the
Lusitania, the Arabic. the Sussex,
and those other ships. I'm tired Of
lies like that and I think 1t Is the
duty Of the American congress and
people to brand them As lies"
Senator Hard wick of Georgia said
the war resolution must pass mot
because the American people or con-
gress desire war, but because 1t Is an
imperative necessity"
"The people want peace, but not at
expense OF national honor or national
safety" he said.
Other senators, regardless Of party,
both from the north, south, east and
west, spoke along similar lines.

The Presidents War Message

From every part of the nation.
comes approval of President Wilson, 9
message to Congress, asking that q
state of war be declared between this
country and Germany.
The most notable endorsements
come from Former Presidents Roose-
velt and Taft. The latter pronounces
it great historical state document
in the following words:
1.-The Presidents message is an ad-
tnirable setting forth Of the causes
that must lead the United States into
a declaration of war. 1t Ia a great
historical state paper. Its approval
of universal compulsory service and
of a close practical alliance with
England, France and Russia in over
coming Prussian militarism shows
the Presidents determination that
the country when in war shall wage
it effectively.
1.-The entente allies are now fight
ing our battles as well as the battles
ofthe world progress and We should
be recreant to every principle Of
honor and decency II we do not SUBJ
scribe to the Presidents policy In .
firm union In this war with France,
England, Russia, Italy and their
allies"
Former President Roosevelt, in
discussing the message, character
ICES it as q great state paper in the
following language:
1.-The Presidents message is great
state paper, which will rank in his
tory among the great papers of
which Americans in future years will
be proud. 1t now rests with the peO-
pie Of the country to see that we put
in practice the policy the President
has outlined and that we strike hard,
as soon and as effectively as possible
in aggressive war against the gov
ernment Of Germany"
At time when Taft and Roosevelt,
former presidents of the republic,
although different from President
Wilson in politics and many of his
policies, thus come to his support
with broad and patriotic statements,
the solidarity Of the mass of the peo-
pie IL assured for the enforcement of
the rights of our citizens and the en-
tire national spirit for those vigorous
measures worthy the dignity of our
country and our loyalty to the flag.

German philosophy Is awonderful
thing. We have long been of that
opinion and have thought that some
time we would dip into 1t and see
which way it led. But there is no
further need of investigation. The
German chancellor has illustrated it
for our edification. "Germany," he
announces, will continue her pro-
gram of undersea warfare without
modification, and IL the United
States regards this cause of war the
responsibility will not rest with
Germany" A charming philosophy,
in truth. Germany may kill our men,
women and children at will, but II
we take offense, that's our fault!
