There is thoughtless talk current
that is to the detriment Of citizens
of German birth who are loyal to
the United States at a time when
such loyalty costs more than the
gossip mongers seem to understand.
It is a season Of distress for Ger
man-Americans who love their ma
tive land and yet stand with the
country of their adoption. Cannot
the most thoughtless among us see
that it is the part Of good citizen
ship and of common human feel
ing to help such loyal people to
avoid wounding their sensibilities,
and to try and make them feel
that we do not doubt their good
faith while recognizing their
dilemma. This practical opportun-.
ity to do unto others as we would
be done by should not be neglected
by people of sense.-The Spring

The price Of wheat reached the
highest point ever attained in War
rem on Monday when it was $2.22
a bushel, and flour $500 a barrel.
Yesterday the price Of wheat drop
ped to S2.12, owing to the action of
the Canadian government removing
the duty from wheat, but the mar
ket rallied again today, when a
raise of nine cents over yesterday
took place, making the price $2.21.
Only few farmers here are bene-
fitted by the high prices, as most
of them sold their grain long ago.
Those who have had to buy seed
wheat at high prices will be salts
fed to get such prices next fall.

When Your Country Needs You.

A>>N~A0 Ous
1t appears that right now your
country needs your loyalty and
support. You may not be fitted to
shoulder the gun and march to the
front, but there is room for you
too. There is work to do for all,
every man, woman and child. So
if you can not enlist to go to the
front, then enlist right here at
home. The question may be asked,
what can be done at home. The
answer is simply, become more
active, more Industrious. If we
should be unfortunate enough to be
engaged in prolonged war, the
country will need to draw upon the
full amount of it's resources. We
are not over supplied now, and we
are looked upon as the bread bas-
ket of the world. Should a few
million of our young men be called

The farmers are called upon to
do their share in the war by work
ing harder to produce crops to feed
the armies in the field, as we'll as
all the rest Of the people. In the
final analysis, also the farmers
must pay the billions of war taxes
that will be piled up. Everything
depends upon the farmers. They
are our most patriotic citizens and
will not shirk their duty.
