HOGS TO WIN THE WAR.

Now, we're told, it hog that are to
win in the war. The department Of
agriculture presents this matter about
like this:
To make sur of victory, We mus t
produce more food
The most essential kid of food is
l1enat
The most important form nj meat
is pork. because "it can % transport
, ed more readily and economically 70
our troops in the field shan can any
other meat" and because hogs can
be produced quicker than any other
kind OF live STOCK"
The department therefore strongly
urges the necessity and duty Of rt9rt-
ing at once to increase the hob sup
iply. The estimated number OF hogs
in this country is about 1000 000 less
than it was last year 1t Dug TO be
more, in order to guarantee the prep
er feeding of our soldiers. our allies
and ourselves.
| It's simply a question Of wholesale
breeding instead Of wholesale slaush-
tering. Breeding animals must re-
produce themselves, and farmers are
urged to see that every eligible hog
does her duty.
There is no hardship thus imposed
on the farmer. He is merely encouf
sged TO enter more zealously into an
extremely profitable industry. Inc
I price of pork lately has been more
than twice it's average price in the
tbrea or four years before the war. II
isn't likely to go down much, il any
Ehe demand is sure to continue strong
until some time after the end OF the
war Feed crops are plentiful lnoW
Everything favors hog-raisihg.
But the patriotic appeal should be
stranger than the lure of profits. Rals-
Ing bags has become smuch war
duty as buying Liberty bonds
An average increase of 10 per cent.
for the entire country is recommended
for the coming year. Some states are
asked to produce more than that ana
some less. Missouris quota IS 81
per cent increase of her present por"
cine population. Five per cent WIZ
suffice for Georgia and West Virginia

WHO WILL BE NEXT?

Each time the German arms or the
navy or air feet has received a set
back, the kaiser and his advisers find
scapegoat. Sometimes it is a chan.
ceIloT, sometimes a general, some
| time a head of the navy. Now that
the crown prince has failed so utter
ly we wonder if the kaiser will re-
place him and endeaTor to pacate the
people in that fashion.
Not so very long ago General Pc
| tain. general in command of the
French armies, planned a brilliant
stroke weherby the French recovered
in few days all the ground around
Verdun which it had taken the Ger
mans many weary months and count
less thousands of troops to capture
Lately the crown prince has been
concentrating his efforts upon the Che
luin DIES DANES, the famous Ladies'
Road" which is one of the mosa IN
portant strategic points in the Aisne
region.
Fut in the past few days Petain's
men have not only hurled the Prus-
5i1nS back in utter defeat, but have
adganced their own positions and tax
en- prisoners.
From the standpoint OF the ruling
class of Prussia this will never do.
Had the armies under the crown
prince won brilliant victories, thanks
10 the genius of some subordinate gen
eral. the latter would have been for.
gotten AMI all the glory handed to the
man who will some day be emperor
Of Germany-provided the empire and
the dynasty lasts that long, But as
the armies of the Aisne have tasted
the bitter cup Of defeat instead of
success, the HohenZollerns will take
good care that the patient Germans
back home are not allowed to believe
their husbands and sons wer esacri-
feed by the stupidity of the crown
prince.
The scapegoat will be found some
where in the list OF generals under
him. And the one selected for the
sacrifice will be sent back home or
rtired or transferred with u great pub
lie flourish of trumpets Kings can
do no wrong, was a maxim generally
dropped by civilized peoples. But it
has not been dropped by the junker
class OF Prussia. q.

TWO TRAMPs BURNED
Perish in Fire Which Destroys Wa.
pslIo Jail-eoth Bodies Badly Burned
Origin Of Fire Is Not Known-May
Have Been Started by Inmates.

Wapello Jan. 23.--Two tramps who
had been working off and on on the
ievee near here under John Grimm. OF
this place, were burned to death when
the calaboose caught fire and burned
to the ground between 100 and s
o'clock Monday morning.
The names of the victims are Shell
ley Reynolds and Joseph Wilson.
They applied to the constable Sat
urday night for lodging and were
placed in the calaboose. At 80 o'clock
Monday morning passers-by noticed
wisps Of smoke curling from between
the cracks in the frame structure.
The Wapello fire department was
called at once, but when they broke
down the door of the calaboose and
entered. beth of the men were dead.
Reynolds body was charred almost
beyond recognition. The other man
was also badly burned, the flesh being
charred from the bones in many spots.
The calaboose was a one-story frame
building. 1t was located near the bus
mess block of the town. The origin
of the fire remains a mystery, altho
1t is thought that the inmates of the
building tried to start fire with dis
astrous results.

DAIRY COW "FOsTER
MOTHER" TO ENTIRE
COUNTRY, SAYS PEARSON

The Importance of the dairy indus
try in this country and the coming
recognition of the Importance Of agri-
cultural education as worthy to stand
in dignity with equivalent training in
law or any other subject were empha-
sized by President r. A. Pearson, OF
Iowa State College, in his address at
the dedication of the new 100000
dairy at the University Of Nebraska
last week. After his address President
Pearson was presented with the homo
rary degree of doctor OF agriculture
in recognition of the service he has
given agriculture since his graduation
from Cornell University.
The dairy COW has been called our
foster mother but she can never be
given her just due" he said, quoting
figures showing that in 1910 there were
100000 cows in the United States
or 220 cows to each inha bitant Census
reports estimate the value Of dairy
products on the farm, exluding home
consumption, as $666,000,000.
People are coming to realize that
agricultural education Is a public ques-
tion." he said. James J. Hill, a few
years ago, prophesied that this coun-
try would go hungry in twenty years
If the development Of agriculture did
hot receive proper attention. I say
that agricultural education Is dignified
as an equivalent education in any 9TH
er subject, for example. the law.
Times have changed. The man who
teaches COW testing association work
and how to conduct egg laying con-
tests is coming to be looked upon with
as much respect as one who teaches
arithmetic, physics or grammar. All
these subjects are vital. The Ameri-
can boy will make no mistake in Sc
lectins the one which appeals strong
est to his individual interest.~
