The Democrat did not expect that
any of those interested in fixing
the Trail Meeting at Canadian to
give it away, but the Guymon Herald
this week spilled the beans. 1t says:
of the "men possessed Of, a contenti-
GUS spirit bent on diverting said
highway" They were soon made to
realize, that such efforts were futile,
and that our fxers had preceded
them and captured the goal" Much
obliged for the information, but we
already knew It.

RESOLUTIONS OF COINCIDENCE

Whereas, our beloved sister, Mother
Lane, as we affectionately called her,
kept the faith and finished the fight and
we are left lonely, without her smile
mend her loved ones to her God, for
comfort and consolation and we, with
them are glad for her long life and her
splendid example of Christian fortitude
under the most trying circumstances.
Resolved, that we try to emulate her
virtues and live as exemplary before
the world, that when our call shall
Gomez we shall have this earthly house
''in orNer."
Resolved. that copy of these resolu-
tions be sent to her family and copy
printed in each of our city papers and
spread on the records of our order.

To Mother Lane
She's gone to sleep
To sleep the sleep that knows no walk
ling;
And she'll rest on, so peaceful and Sc
rene
Until the last Great Dawn is breaking.
Then she'll awake
Upon the clarion call of Judgment Day,
Entirely rested from her sweet sleep,
To join her Lord and there forever stay.
But while she sleeps
This peaceful sleep that knows no wax
She's gone away and left us here
With lonely hearts, so sad and aching.
We must not weep,
Not waste our time in useless griefing,
She is not dead, but just gone on before
To the realm for which we'll soon be
leaving.

NITRATE DEPOSITS IN SOUTH
Doubtful Whether Material Found in
Caves Can Be Profit
ably Used.

In connection with the search for
potash and nitrates in the United
States the government receives many
reports of supposed valuable discov-
cries. A letter recently received by
the United States geological survey of
cave in one of the Southern states
which was worked by the Confederacy
during the Civil war for potassium nj
trate. This cave is said to contain Mt
least 100000 tons Of nitrous earth,
which, however, contains only one tG
two per cent of nitrate. The survey
now states that it seems very doubt
full whether such material can be
profitably used as source Of nitrate
salts. The minimum grade of caliche
now worked in the Chilean fields con-
tains - per cent of sodium nitrate,
and though there has been much criti-
cism of the crudeneSs of the methods
employed there, the work Is done by
very cheap Indian labor, and it Is
doubtful whether lcaner material
could be worked to advantage here,
where the price Of labor is so much
higher. Several hundred thousand
dollars has recently been expended
in one of the Western states in test
ing the proposition to utilize low-grade
nitrate. The results have been mega
tive.

EAT PLENTY OF CHEESE
Dairy Product Is More NouriShing
Than Meat.
United States Department Of AarieuI-
ture Urges More Extensive
Use as Food.

store" cheese = more properly
known as American cheddar-is more
nourishing, pound for pound, than any
meat, and therefore should have a
prominent place in the diet us u meat
substitute, says a statement issued by
the United States department of agri.
culture.
"Few people in this country eat
cheese In sufficient quantities for 1t
really't to form an important part Of the
daily fare" says the statement. I'm
deed, 1t is used more often simply as
IN appetizer or as seasoning for
some other food. Nearly every one
relishes good American cheddar or
store cheese, but there is an impress
sion that 1t is indigestible and consti-
pating. Extensive digestion expert
ments carried on by the department of
agriculture have demonstrated that
more than 95 per cent OF the protein
Of cheese is digested and 90 per cent
Of Its energy is available. Even when
eaten in large quantities and for long
periods, no case of Indigestion, con-
stipatiOn, or other disturbance was OBJ
served In those who ate it. One man
who ate cheese as the chief source of
both protein and energy, eating IN av-
erage of 927 ounces daily, with bread
and fruit, for more than two years,
did fair amount of muscular work
and kept in good health.
American cheddar cheese is very
satisfactory substitute for meat. 1t
can be kept in storage for long time,
and contains much food in small vol
ume.
"A pound of cheese supplies more
than twice as much energy as pound
of fowl or round steak and almost
twice as much protein as the same
amount of fowl or ham. Cheese, there
fore, is usually cheaper food than
the meats.
Cheese can also be combined in
many palatable dishes. When grated
it may be used in soups or with many
vegetables. Other foods in which
cheese is used are: Macaroni and
cheese, Welsh rabbit, tomato rabbit,
baked rice and cheese, baked crackers
and cheese, vegetable and cheese rolls,
cheese omelet, oatmeal and cheese and
cheese muSh.
Recipes and further information
are given, in Farmers Bulletin 4S7,

on application to the department of
agriculture, Washington, d. c."

BEAN MEN PROMISE HELP
Will Do Everything Possible to Insure
Supply of Vegetable at Rea-
sonable Price.

The bean growers and bean dealers
of the country have notified the food
administration that they are ready to
do everything within their power to
help the nation, win the war, and to
benefit the American consumer through
Il reasonable price for this important
food, they declared today, at the end
of two-day conference.
Both the growers and the dealers an
nounced that they Will cooperate with
the national government in every way
in producing and distributing as large
a supply of beans as possible, expect
ing only fair profit over the expense
of their business.
The dealers pledged themselves to
carry out such measures as the presi-
dent and the food administration may
desire for the purpose of winning the
war. They offered the food admins
tration the privilege of examining their
books in order that fair profit may
be determined.

The high price of fodder and meat
In the United States during the past
few months, induced by the pressing
European demand, has set up danger
Gus currents in this country, especially
In those regions dependent upon but
ter and the sale of milk to municipali-
ties. having made it more profitable
to sell the cattle for meat than to
keep them and produce dairy products.
Therefore, the dairy cattle are decreas-
ing in those sections. The only sec
tiOns in which dairy products have had
rise In price in appropriate proper
ton to the increase in cost of feeds are
those producing condensed milk and
cheese.
Supplies Are Decreasing.
Our home milk and butter supplies
are therefore decreasing while our pop
ulation is increasing. This deficiency
of dairy butter, is shown by the sales
of margarine, which shows an increase
of several million pounds per month
over similar periods in 1915. Dairy
butter, however, has qualities which
render it vitality necessary for table
use. Milk has no substitutes, and
should be not only intrinsically one
of our cheapest animal foods, but is abb
solutely fundamental to the rearing of
the children.
The dairy situation resolves itself
into several phases. First it is to be
hoped that the forthcoming abundant
harvest will result in lower prices of
food and diminish the impetus to sell
the cattle for meat. Second, the in
dustry needs encouragement so as to
increase the dairy herd and thus our
dairy supplies, for the sake first of our
own people and second of the allies.
The people must realize the vital de-
pendence of the well-being Of their chill
dren, and thus Of the nation, upon the
encouragement and upbuilding of the
industry. Third, we must save the
wastes in milk and butter if we are to
provide milk supplies to all, especially
including the children of the crowded
districts of our cities.

DAIRY PROBLEM
is NOW SERIOUS.
Milk and Butter Supplies De-
crease in United States While
Population Increases.
WASTES MUST Be STOPPED
Our Allies Are Short Large Quantities,
and the Burden of Replenishment
Must Fall on North
America.

The food administration has issued
the following statement on dairy con-
dltions:
MIX and butter supplies are de-
creasing in the United States, while
our population is increasing. The
dairy herds of Europe are diminish
ing rapidly because of the conditions
created by war, and there is no prob
ability Of improvement in these condl-
tions. The dairy problem in'this coun-
try, therefore, is not only war emer-
gency problem, but one that will con-
tinue years after the war.
The worlds dairy supplies are de-
creasing rapidly for two important
reasons. First, the dairy cattle of Eu-
rope are diminishing, for Europe is be-
ing driven to eat its cattle for meat;
second, the diversion of labor to war
has decreased the fodder supplies, and
the shortage of shipping has limited
the amount of imported fodder, and
therefore the cattle which, can be sup
ported and the productivity of the indi-
vidual COW have been reduced. Even
our own dairy supplies are not keeping
pace with our growth of population,
for our per capita milk supply has
fallen from 30 to IS gallons annually,
in the past Is years. Yet, today we
must ship increasing amounts of dairy
products to our allies.
Diverted to Germany.
The dairy supplies of the allies In
normal times come to considerable
degree from western Scandinavia, HOl-
land and Switzerland, but under Ger
man pressure these supplies are now
partly diverted in Germany. The men
under arms and the wounded must be
supplied with condensed milk in large
quantities. The net result of these
conditions, despite rigorous reduction
of consumption among the adults of
the civil population in Europe, is that
our allies are still short Of large guam
titles and again the burden of the re-
placement of this shortage must fall
on North America. The growing ex-
ports of dairy products from the United
States to the allies are shown in the
following table:

FOR
RETALIATION
BY LOWELL MELLETT
(United Press Leased Wire.)

tOmiteO fFeeS Leaeeu WlresD
LONDON, Oct. 6.-What will
be in effect a department of re-
taliation" Is England's answer to-
day to the public demand that the
German sky devil be fought with
| fire.
The war cabinet decided to
carry out an elaborate program of
strict retaliation on German cities
for German airmen's murder
raids over English cities. 1t will
be practically an aerial offensive
Of tremendous proportion, Gen.
Suth, who with Premier Lloyd
George, is credited with the in
venting of the aerial barrage
which has proven partly success
full in repelling raiders on Lon
don, appeared likely to be select
ed as the man in charge of the
new department.
First fruit of this decision that
England must return measure for
measure was seen today in orders
for a speeding up of aeroplane
production.
