TEN RULES FOR DlsL0YALlsTs
Acerman EffscIeney~ Applied TO Pro
motion Of Traitorous Propaganda
It Least Personal Risk.

Pro-kaiser and anti-war propagan-
dists reveal their lack Of German effi-
cheney" In the frequency with which
they get themselves pummeled or
.pinched."
an the interest Of more efficiency,
the Independent has condensed the
methods Of the most successful practi-
TONERS Of disloyalty into ten rules
for carrying on traitorous propaganda
at least personal risk.
Most OF all Of these rules so accur-
ately describe the arguments which
nearly everybody has heard from one
or more Of the traitorous-minded that
they are worth frequent perusal. The
rules are:
1. Assert on every occasion that
wall street" made the war. Never
mind explaining when, how Or why.
2 Get In all tho sneers you can at
any profession OF Ideal motives. II
you can find any flaw In our demoo-
racy say that awe are Just ~ bad an
autocracy a. Germany" Place the
war In ~ sordid . light % possible.
8. u 10 dangerous to denounce the
United States directly. But rake ghIs-
tory from end to end for mud to throw
At the allies. Especially, twist the
lions tail.
4. Profess great concern lest send
Ing food to Europe will starve Amer
lea. Support every embargo movement
that applies to the allied nations and
none that does not
5. II the president asks for any ex-
tension Of power rave about dictator
ship" and the overthrow Of the liber-
ties for which our fathers, etc"
8. Spread rumors that the allies are
going to betray us or take advantage
Of u ~ soon as we are deeply enough
involved In the war.
Z. Accept eonserIptlon In principle
but hamper it, working In every pos
sibie way. One good way 10 to start
'scares about revolutions and internal
disorder a. 4 pretext for keeping a
large part Of the army At home.
q. Demonstrate that the enemy Is
unconquerabIe and victory hopeless.
Play the "eandid friend" and act -
depressant.
9. Be very jealous to prevent zen
tanaIina alliances" and be much con-
cerned about the Monroe doctrine II
we "mix ourselves In European quar-
reIs." A permanent league Of nations
would embarrass your Junker friends
II they remain In power after the war.
Germany can only hope to conquer
other nations II they act seIfishIy and
In Isolation.
10. WHEN DRIVEN TO MAKE AN
UNEQUlvocAL STATEMENT PRO-
TEST YOUR LOYALTY AND THEN
CHANGE THE SUBJECT.
Cut this out and hand 1t to the next
paciflst or luke-warm friend who tries
to start an argument.

Bible?" said the minister" We'll, :"
replied the gentleman, Il have been
sitting under you preaching for FIVE
years and when you said that a thing
in the bible was not authentic,
cut it out" He had about a third of
the Bible cut out: all of Job, all of
Ecclesiastes and Revelation, and a
good deal besides. The minister
wanted him to leave the Bible with
him. He didn't want the rest of his
congregation to see it, But the man
said. 20. no! / have the covers left,

he went holding on to the covers. If

USE OF SEIZED GERMAN SHIPS

Secretary Redfield, of the Depart
ment of Commerce, announces:
81 am in receipt of advices from
the United States Shipping Board, in
answer to my recent letter suggest
ing the use of some of the former
German vessals in the Philippines to
bring hemp to this country, that this
will be done. There are large guam
titles of hemp in the Philippines, and
the diversion of vessels to munitions
and freight carrying to belligerent
nations has curtailed the normal out
flow of this necessary commodity. 1t
is needed for use in the manufacture
of binder Irvine, which will shortly
be in great demand in harvesting the
grain crops.
Three former German steamships
have cargoes engaged and will be
used to bring quantities of hemp
Three more large former German yes
sells are undergoing repairs and will
shortly be available for cargoes, prin-
cipally of hemp, to the United States.
There are also other vessels available
which will be utilized to relieve the
binder-twine situation to the end
that the harvesting of the grain crops
may proceed without interruption.

REPORTS PEACE IN CHIHUAHUA.

The Department of States makes
the following announcement:
The American eounsul at Juarez
reports in telegram to the Depart
ment of State that military activity
is quite a thing of the past in the
State of Chihuahua. The few ban
dts under arms are asking for am
nesty. A general attempt at recon
struction seems to have taken hold of
all Mexicans.
A number of refugee Americans are
making trips into Mexico for the pur-
pose of investigating conditions. Full
ly SO per cent of the unemployed and
destitute Mexicans have disappeared
from ElPaso and Juarez within the
last month. A majority have re-
turned to their homes in Mexico.
Food is being shipped south from Ell
Paso in large quantities.

SAVE EGGS NOW.

A great many households discover
ed last fall and winter that they were
II the mercy OF almost prohibitive
prices II they continued to use eggs
as an article of food.
This condition is bound to recur
next winter. The precaution neces-
sary is to preserve enough eggs for
home use, and do it now, when the
price is down and the quality is good.
You are more certain of gathering
a fresh product at this season of the
year than if you wait until the sum
mer months.
One of the most successful meth
DDS yet devised for preserving eggs is
by the use of water glass (soluble
sodium silicate). When eggs are to
be kept for a period of eight or nine
months, the formula recommended
is one part water glass to nine parts
of water. If eggs are to be kept only
A short time, one-to-fifteen solu-
tion will prove satisfactory. The
water used should be boiled of dis
titled to remove all impurities, and
cooled before making up the mixture.
Water glass secured from local
druggist costs about so cents quart
and if used in the formula one-to-
nine will preserve approximately 20
dozen eggs. Glazed earthenware
jars make the best containers. They
can be left uncovered in a cool cellar,
providing there are at least two in
ches of the solution over the top layer
of eggs. A good plan is to make up
the solution and add the eggs as they
are gotten each day until the jar is
full.-C. s. Anderson, Colorado Agri-
cultural College, Fort Collins, Colo

WAR LOANS.

Great Britain's estimated wealth
Is $S5, 900, 100000; she has made
three great loans since the com
mencement of the war, aggregating
$40, 200, 900. 1000. Her last loan was
FOR $4S7, 100000, which was the
greatest single loan ever floated in
the history of the world. 1t was
taken up in 80 days, $5,2S9,000 in
dividuals subscribing to the loan.
! One person in every II inhabitants
of the United Kingdom subscribed to
this loan. and the average subscrip
subscribers took only Ell, or about
$5. The great number of subscri-
bers to this loan is pointed out as
evidence of the patriotism of the
British people.
Germany's wealth is estimated at
$50, 700. Germany has put
out five loans since the commence
ment of the war, aggregating SILL
$50, 100000. In Germany's latest
loan / person in 13 of the population
lS TepOIieu W ndNe SuDSCTlDeu, anu
the average amount taken by each
subscriber was $700.
Taking into consideration these
figures, the 100000 loan of
the United States with an estimated
wealth of 100000, 100000 and a
population Of over 100, 900 seems
almost small With wealth nearly
three times as great as that of Great
Britain it is trying to borrow less
than one-half of what Great Britain
has borrowed. With population
one and one-half times as large as
that of Germany our loan is much |
less than half of the amount that
Germany has borrowed.
Americas liberty loan is less than
one-sixth of the bank deposits in our
country. An ordinary borrower does |
not think he is running himself when |
he borrows 40 per cent of the value
OF his property. The United States
is borrowing less than 3 per cent of
its wealth.

WATCH FOR CUT WORMS
SEASON is HERE.

1t is about time for the appearance
of cutworms in alfalfa fields and gar
dens, and we may expect no little
damage from them.
Under ordinary conditions, preven-
ton is the best remedy. This may be
easily accomplished by plowing, disc
ing or narrowing late in the fall or
early in the spring.
Cutworm damage may be prevent
ed in gardens by placing a piece of
stiff paper in the form of cylinder
about the plant, allowing the upper
edge TO extend at least two inches
above the surface of the ground. In
areas where the worms are concen-
trated, an application of arsenical
bait will prove very effective. A
good formula is as follows:
