BOYS and NICKELS
LITTLE ABERDEEN LAD PRE-
FERRED IMMEDIATE
RESULTS.

Aberdeen News: Occasionally some
incidents that would create quite a
smile are connected with the taking
OF contributions of the school chill
dren for benevolent or other propo-
sitions. The little folks. most OF
them, do not want TO be outdone in
the matter of contributing their pen
MES or nickels by their classmates
and so are willing to carr the money
in some way.
So, when a little man OF 7 came
home the other day with the great
Information that all were expected
to dig up for the buffalo herd
fund, his father told him If he
dressed himself quickly the next
morning and got all fixed up nice in
time for breakfast, he could have the
coveted 5 cents. SO he fought with
measly buttons on trousers and
shoes and earned the nickel. But II
looked too good to him to spend on
buffaloes that were to be seer some
time in the dim and distant future.
and Jimmy decided he would put the
money in his savings bank for future
use.
The next evening Jimmy's fond
p%aternal parent saw a bright shiny
object sitting on the bookcase. A
closer inspection revealed the fact
that it was n of those pretty East
er rabbits. Little Jimmy had nor
been able to resist the temptation OF
the dime store, but he said he liked
dead rabbits better, after all, than
live buffaloes.

ATLANTA PRISON is
BIGGEST IN WORLD

Atlanta. Ca, Sept. S.-The ca
pacity of the Federal prison was in
creased by 1000 inmates when the
doors were thrown open to the new
left wing of the annex, which has
been in process of erection for the
past four years.
The second wing is now being COM
pleted, and, when opened, will make
the Atlanta pen the biggest in the
world, The present population of
the prison is 1888
All the work on the annex was
performed by prison labor. The
construction was slow and tedious
because of the ponderous task of
transporting the huge granite blocks
of which it is being built, from Stone
Mountain.
The annex Is the most up-to-date
prison in the country, cOmmodious,
hygienic, airy and well ventilated
with all modern equipment.

said he. The Germans are not

The answer TO this is, where
would we be IL the English fleet did
not stand between us and the Ger

in the defense of his country and his
home, who opposes the sending of
American troops TO support our
allies weakened battle-lines, thereby
says that he would rather fight the
Germans on American soil. We fight
in Europe to prevent our having TO

THE NEED or
- ECONOMY AND SAVING

The United States is now at war.
A large part of our countrys human
energy is taken away from the
farms, factories, and industries of
peace, and until the war ends all
their energies will be edvoted to
| fighting.
A great portion of our productive
| energy is being turned into the Gre
alton of implements of destruction.
Many of our products are now being
devoted to purposes of war. De-
struction instead of construction is
the obpject of a great portion of the
country's energy.
As much of the human energy and
productive capacity of the Nation are
now being devoted to the purposes
of the war, so should the proper
amount of the money of the United
States be so devoted. He who of
fers his life for his country is Offer
ing the greatest possible sacrifice,
but the American men and women
who support the Government with
their money are doing their part.
This war is going to be financed !
largely out of the savings of the |
people during the war. II
is not too great a sacrifice to make
for ones country in time of war TO
deny ones self Injuries, to cut down
expenses, to lead quiet
er and buster lives. Not only will
he money thus saved and used to
BUY Liberty Loan Bonds help the
United States but the diminished
OF food and other ar
icles will do much to relieve the
country from the strain of war.
The less the people use the less
train there is upon the productive
apacity of the Nation and the more
an be devoted TO winning the war;
he more the people save the more
LIBERAL financial support can they
i've the Government. This is the
copies war, and it is to be financed
y the American people, not by the
ich and not by the poor, but by the
lch and the poor. the capitalist and
ne wage Garner, the miner and the +,
,rmer and the manufacturer.

Make Sauerkraut And Still BE Pa.
triOtie.

Now is the time to make sauer
kraut, say officials of the United
States Department of Agriculture
Tremendous rainfall throughout the
= country has resulted in an enormou:
cabbage crop. Nine out of every ten
pounds of cabbage is water. Lack OF
rain last year sent the price of cab
>base FROM So and So a ton to 500
and 5000.
One million dollars worth of last
years crop of cabbage was made into
sauerkraut, but even so there was
such a shortage of this valuable food
material that the price rose from
$3.50 barrel to s35.
The ancient art of picking or fer
menting food, as a cheap and simple
means of preserving it in large guam
titles, is highly Endorsed by the de-
partment's experts. On account of
the great development of canning in
.dustries. this healthful method or
flood preservation has been lost sight
of in recent years in the individual
homes, but it now offers a safe and
sane method of caring for the per-
ishable products coming on the mar
ket in quantities too great for imme-
diate consumption.
- The advantages of this method of
food conservation, by use of salt
brine, say the departments officials,
are that it is simple, requires little
labor, practically no outlay OF capt.
tai, and takes care of food in larger
quantities. The method also lends
variety to the home menu. The fer
ment which develops in the food is
thought by some to have benef-
.cial effect on the health. 1t is the
same acid that develops in sour milk,
which has had such wide vogue as
a healthful beverage. Uncle sam
has been quick to appreciate the
value of fermented food in the diet
of soldiers, and has ordered large
quantities OF cucumber pickles
sauerkraut, etc. Not only cabbage,
cucumbers and beets can be very sue
cessfully preserved at home by this
process, but string beans, beet tops,
turnip tops, and other food materials
which would otherwise go to waste.

BRAZIL WILL SIDE
WITH j. 5. IN WAR
RESOLUTION PASSED BY CHAM
Der WHICH WOULD REVOKE
NEUTRALITY PROCLAMATION.
Believed That War Will Be Declared
Between Germany and Brazil
Within a Few Days.-chile
Will Back Brazil.

Rio JanelrO.-The Brazilian chamber
on May % passed the first reading of
the government measure revoking Bra
zil's neutrality in the war between
Germany and the United States. The
vote was 1876 to 3.
The leaders of the principal political
factions declared that they would vote
for the proposed project because they
felt confident that parliament would
complete the measure by revoking
also In favor of the entente the coun-
try's declaration of neutrality and
thereby permit Brazil to take sides
with the entente against Germany.
This declaration brought forth en-
thusiastic applause.
The measure under consideration by
the Brazilian chamber was drafted by
the committee on foreign relations. 1t
recommended the cancellation of the
decree of April %, 1917, which de-
clared the neutrality of Brazil in the
war between Germany and the United
States.
A Noticia says that in German cir
cles 1t is asserted that Germany will
declare war on Brazil within two or
three days.
A dispatch from Santiago says: Chile
will support Brazil in adopting vigor-
Gus measures against Germany, ac-
cording to the Diaro Inustrado, in
commenting on the new aspect of the
international situation brought about
by the action of President Braz of
Brazil in urging congress to revoke
